Does anyone else think Lauren Buglioli talks too softly? I get she's supposed to be a pampered princess, but I can't connect to her performances because I always feel like she needs more grit or something. She needs to be more ferocious for me. More of a firecracker, because she's coming off like less than a sparkler.

I will say bringing on Tracy was exactly what Anita needed because she's been all stoic all the time. Seeing her be infallible made her feel human, rootable, and relatable. 

This was the first episode where I feel like the new Ted had settled in well. Pretty good for a near immediate recast.

-- Leslie's "Miss Bitch to you" comment was priceless, but let's not forget the good moment when Ted called her a bitch.

-- I like nuTed as a counterpoint to Leslie. I don't need someone who comes off as a killer every time they meet. Nicole would not have married -- or lasted -- with that kind of guy. 

-- And honestly, I never thought former Ted was close to wanting to Kill Leslie, either.

-- Vanessa has become obnoxious to me. Her lecture and attack on Ted was ludicrously hypocritical. The biggest slut in town weighing in on cheating in a marriage? Spare me.

-- Joey and Vanessa are going to have sex on the table in his casino backroom? So romantic, Vanessa. Just what you want in another guy. Spare me.

-- Good Anita/Tracy scenes, but we need to move past scenes in which details aren't given about "what happened." It's not realistic that they'd keep having conversations and never get down to specifics.

-- The previews for next week look insanely good.

Leslie continues to entertain.

 

Love, Shanice!!

 

Tracy knows Anita's secret.

 

Next week's preview has me anxious for Monday.

    • When watching the clip of Michael returning I wonder if the announcer set a record for fastest "the role of..." I've never really connected to any of LLC's characters in her soap career, but I will give her credit for always knowing how to make a reaction and scene count. She did when Gio stormed out of the room, and her reaction to Michael returning and walking off with Miley, even in the background of a scene, was great.  (and how is today the day I just realized Lisa is married to Michael Patrick Jann, of The State fame). 
    • Holy [!@#$%^&*] just finished Friday’s episode. Despite my very public issues with this show, this week was everything I look for in soap opera. I fast forwarded all of the performances so I got nothing but soapy goodness. Honestly when GH wants to, they still pull off a Guza type event and this week was proof of that.    I have to also shout out Ned getting some strong involvement, given Brook Lynn kept the secret from him, very happy about that.    Maurice has to retire ASAP. Every other major player affected by this story, did such great work. He was embarrassingly bad like he barely knew where he was for some of his scenes. Giving him a job just because of his mental health has to stip when he’s actively ruining scenes. So happy Ned got a point of view most of the episode. Michael showing up with his new face and his son running up to him in front of everyone is just perfect and a great cliffhanger.
    • Why was there such a turnover of writers/producers in that era? You would think they would be looking for stability but each new team that came in changed direction , seemingly for no good reason instead of tweaking what was there. A lot of the new characters had little chance to get established before they were gone. Surely some of them had potential to be used by subsequent regimes? And what about bringing back writers familiar with the show ? Would Ann Marcus, the Corringtons, Henry Slesar or Peggy O'Shea been approached or interested?
    • Billy Magnussen is in the live action Lilo & Stitch.
    • Damn! Here we go again: Daniel Brocklebank has been axed from his role of Billy Mayhew after 11 years and will leave in 2026! bruh.. yet they keep useless characters Like Kirk and Izzy or Gemma on the payroll and axe Billy who actually had storylines and Craig. Craig was a Officer and could’ve used on important Future storylines but nooo. Keep Gemma, Izzy and Kirk who have no use

    • Going back abit, the Search actors HATED the Nicholson, Braxton, Avila Mayer era. I was in NYC during that time and spent alot of time outside the studio and got to know some of the actors. They were miserable. Marcia McCabe, in particular absolutely hated the Sunny suicide story. She was very very vocal about it. 
    • Yes, it is a shame that the Gio cliffhanger wasn't continued from yesterday.
    • @Gatecrashers, No, that's not GA, although there is a resemblance...particularly with that hair.
    • Is this GA at 2:59?
