I'm glad none of JG's pets won and LY being the sole BOLD win, Brad should be embarrassed

That is cute, I love how Lisa said Don's been her mentor on the show. Lisa, Christian, Lenaya and Crew are all really close and Christian is Lisa's bestie

Since the 2025 Daytime Emmys weren’t televised and Fashion Police coverage was MIA, I asked my AI to write an episode based on red carpet photos. We used celestial round table featuring Joan Rivers, Mr. Blackwell, and Eleanor Lambert.

Joan kicks things off with Luna from B&B: “She’s in a white draped number that says ‘virginal goddess,’ but the contouring says ‘I know my way around a syringe.’” Blackwell calls it “Olympus on a budget,” while Eleanor critiques the lack of structure and styling: “She’s a comma when she needed an exclamation point.” Michelle Stafford earns praise for her sheer sparkle—Joan notes the volume in her hair and minimal jewelry, though she adds, “I’ve seen less filler in a Thanksgiving turkey.”

Peter Bergman’s classic tux gets Blackwell’s approval, but Joan groans: “He looks like he’s headed to a funeral for his fashion sense.” Eleanor defends the restraint: “He’s not reinventing the wheel, but he’s not crashing it either.” Linsey Godfrey’s skin-baring gown draws fire: “She looks like she lost a bet with a dominatrix,” says Joan, adding, “This is a non-televised event in Pasadena, not the Met Gala. Know your venue.”

Don Diamont is dubbed “a tuxedo triumph,” but Cindy Ambuehl’s satin gown is “a cyclone” per Blackwell. Eleanor calls the ruching chaotic, and Joan roasts the chandelier earrings: “Honey, you’re not lighting the lobby.” Egypt Sherrod and Mike Jackson are the only couple to earn unanimous praise: “A masterclass in couple styling,” says Eleanor. Joan beams, “They planned their outfits and their marriage.”

Final toast:  All three raise their glasses: “To fashion—forever fabulous.”

Not a great script, but I thought we needed some red carpet commentary.

The writers submitted Kristina's fall from the window at the Metro Court hotel.

@JAS0N47 The casting director at DAYS won the Emmy.  Was she eligible for the casting period of both Tates and both Sofias, or were those recast outside the eligibility period?

Thanks, that gives it an interesting perspective.  And, that's a lot of roles, and an entire family to fill (The Greenes), which much be extra difficult.  And she brought Serena Scott Thomas and AnnaLynne McCord to daytime, who were a breath of fresh air from the usual round-robin casting between soap.

Thanks.  I figured that or the episode at the cemetery is what GH would've submitted for Drama/Writing/Directing.  They were the best episodes from any soap in 2024.

What is that thing that Lucas Adams was wearing on his collar?

It looks weird
