Drew can’t even hold in being a prick for more than 30 minutes. He lured Ronnie in and then instantly in a flash showed her why everyone in the family hates him.  They’ve gotta give this guy maybe just an ounce of self reflection at some point or they really should just have someone shoot him again.

Rocco not giving a [!@#$%^&*] about his actual feelings and wanting to be close to a psychopathic family that literally stole him, is just absurd and poor writing.

I've always said Frank and CVE's tastes were questionable, lol.

Because the show loves Obrecht and her family and is trying to put Britt over with Jason again, and is trying to retroactively force a relationship with the baby she stole (and not because she wanted a child either; it was her parents' supervillain scheme; she hasn't cared about Rocco in years) to make her seem more important. Rocco and Britt never knew each other before, and she never cared.

This is another one of those things where the writers basically think the audience won’t remember what they literally watched or they honestly don’t care if the audience remembers or cares. 

Where the hell is Ric? Why does their feel like no air of fear of him getting revenge on Alexis, Kristina, and Ava?

It's not like this show is full of romance anyway, so I'm not sure that Carly even needs a romantic storyline. She definitely doesn't need to be rushed into one, because LW plays Carly with such a hard edge that it takes a very specific kind of actor--one who radiates confidence--who could make a pairing with Carly work. Until they find one, they should just keep giving Carly scenes with the people she really has chemistry with: the women who are her rivals and frenemies. 

I agree that a romance shouldn't be a priority for Carly, but I have no idea what they should do with Carly...I know this has been talked over to death but there just is so little left for her with her children, or rivals (Carly can't even have a proper rival as she is on her own mountain). If a strong love interest could change that I'd say they should try but there aren't any good romances on the show.

I am the only one here that's fine with stable Sonny/Carly like their last marriage for containment purposes.  But I would consider recasting Jax.  Idk where Ingo's lawsuit stands or if that's even a thing anymore.  If you aren't going to bring back AJ I always thought Mesure would have been a solid Jax recast.  Even Wagger would have been an okay recast if you just ignore the accent thing.  And tbh, Ingo lost most of his accent by the end of his run anyhow.

Jax is still relevant to the canvas in many ways.  You don't NEED him, but you can use him in several ways (and also I would have paired him with Rena if she didn't leave).

I’d be down with a recast Jax especially if he had chemistry with Laura. And if they actually made it seem like Jax was more important than Sonny to her while they’re a couple, but the show doesn’t like to do that.

At this point I think the show could do that easily.  She's involved with Sonny/Jason, but she's not as enmeshed as she's been in the past.  Jason and Sonny don't tell her everything and she doesn't tell them everything.  

Carly hasn't listened to a single thing anyone has said about Brennan before finding out the truth, so I think it would be viable for Carly to put Jax second or third (behind herself and Michael, of course).

Jax could be a foe to Brennan, Sonny, and Jason even Drew

Parent Joss

Be in the mix with Nina and Ava

Be friends with Alexis, Ned

Scheme with Tracy (again)

There's actually a lot of possibilities for Jax on the canvas for once, but, again, I don't know if Ingo's lawsuit is done/thrown out/still going, so I am not sure if the show could even make that move.

I am fairly certain the pause on recasting Jax is because of the Australian's persistent filing of lawsuits against TPTB, and his contniued claims that is what they've been trying to do.

I was so not enthused when he was announced as Michael and he has blown me away. Truly proved what a hack JG is.

Very much proved it. Y&R's loss due to that hack is GH's gain.

THIS.

 

She's overdue an extended catfight. Or renewed rivalry.

Yeah, I wasn't sure if that was still the case.  I still don't understand the Australian's MAGA stances since he's not even a citizen in any way I can tell.

I didn't even realize he's not a citizen and yet keeps doing this. 

I checked and the last article I saw is from July and suggests the suits are ongoing.

smh

He could be a citizen, but I haven't seen any evidence of that or evidence of him voting on his socials even before he got really MAGA.  His kids and wife obviously are though.
