I pretty much watch GH for the Michael/Willow/Drew story.

Also what's kept me with the show for much of the last year despite the ousting of both Patrick Mulcahey and Jonathan Jackson. They've gotten very lucky, but they also made a smart choice in not dumping all of that when FV got full control back. It's the strongest umbrella story on a still very mixed show that often coasts on great actors and a lot of quick and dirty twists and frenetic energy. Now they desperately need a strong contract love interest for Rory Gibson, and to stop playing it cheap there and in other areas.

Hot take: Congresswoman Cain (should be Quartermaine - she and Drew should just take the name back) should fúck both hapless staffer Kai and Chase to keep each under her thumb. It allows the show to dispense with both down the road, albeit Kai much more quickly.

I do now suspect a Drew semi-redemption arc may exist, much further down the road. Which tbh I am fine with. PM's conception of Congressman Drew Q which led us here was more in line with that kind of gray but viable character. I don't want or need him fully redeemed as a good guy because he has made a great villain since late 2024, but they can flesh him out amidst his suffering and possibly in future make him more palatable for other romances after his and Willow's twisted marriage ends (hopefully not any time too soon). Maybe he saves the BJ Jones Memorial Bus or something.

You know what give me a Dante/Liz/Ric triangle. Ric’s his uncle but they have zero relationship so Ric wouldn’t give a f.uck outside of maybe making Sonny mad now that he loves him @Taoboi

I actually wouldn't mind that either. But I feel like it will wind up being Liz/Dante/Lulu.

Same. So much same.

I will agree that for all of Frank's faults that he at least was smart enough to keep some of what PM set up and we are still eating off of what PM set up with Drew and Willow. I have no complaints now that Willow is out in the open with her craziness. At least to the audience. It's very old school soap. Dare I hope she get a great comeuppance week for November Sweeps?

And yeah, I would say this does set up Drew to be redeemed. But I hope it is either semi-redeemed as well. Or at least it will be him that is doing what we all have said for years...in public he seems nice and have learned his lesson, but in true Q fashion, he's manipulating BTS. Or they make this Drew/Willow thing as twisted as Michael and Kimberly got on MELROSE PLACE with their 'love.'

I have gotten Michael and Kimberly vibes off Drew and Willow for a long time. If and when he recovers the relationship should continue in the same vein as when Michael discovered Kimberly tried to kill him.

Not to blog as we've talked about this stuff a lot in the last year, but seeing Danny call Tracy "Aunt Tracy" and saying she's his favorite aunt as he and Jason live in the mansion is such a sea change from the old days with Jasam, etc. This would have been unthinkable then. Somewhere Guza is having an anxiety attack. I do wonder how Steve feels about this but he has leaned into the Q material well onscreen during this run and given it real effort, likely in part because he knows his lead stories have flopped.

Asher A. (I'm too tired to spell that tonight) is still a bit green but has a lot of charisma and personality, and lesser young actors have gone further on that than him. I would still move to amp up his existing daredevil/tryhard delinquent qualities, trying to impress his father as the contrast to sweet Rocco who is regularly his straight man. Maybe he steals a bike like Dad's. And I would recast Georgie in the mold of her namesake. Another wallflower/good girl and rebellious wild boy, though Danny wouldn't have a clue about how she feels for a long time.

I truly loved those scenes. Making Jason truly a part of the Quartermaine clan down to Tracy caring this much about his kid truly warms my heart. One of the best things the show has ever done for me. It’s also funny because if Jason wasn’t so normal now, Sidwell would’ve been dead months ago 😂

Funnily enough given that Rory plays a darker Michael, I don't see him and Willow as THAT kind of disfunctional. At least not yet. But totally in time. Right now, I see it more with Drew and her easily. But Cameron plays his 'love' more as an obsession which is why I see them more like Michael and Kimberly than I feel Michael and Willow do right now.

I do love that Asher is getting a bit of his due though from our days of discussing his acting abilities.

Facts. Old Jason would have killed him by now for trying to kill him and Anna.

But I wouldn't give this maturity in Jason back for anything in the world.

Does anyone think the show will go back to Michael/Willow? I would be kind of disappointed since I don't think Rory/Katelyn have much chemistry, although I know some people are hoping for an Alan/Monica dynamic. I tend to wonder if this Chase/Willow and Michael/Hooker stuff is just to waste time before it becomes Michael/Drew/Willow again.

Honestly, they have enough chemistry that I expect that the writers will take advantage of that in some way. At least hate sex. I do feel like they will circle back to Chase/Willow/Michael in some form which will be interesting given how they have changed since that triangle happened.

Michael deserves more than the Hooker.

Jacinda is a sex worker NOT a hooker. 😂

The facial expressions by LW during that mess were hilarious.😂😂😂

re: above posts mentioning "Michael and Kimberly" - who/what is this referencing? Someone from another show/soap? Or someone from GH's past that I missed during my intermittent viewing?
