  1. Remember when Sonny told Karen she must have wanted to be abused by Ray Conway as a child? Just to make her feel dirty and ashamed and unworthy of anything good because she was trying to resist his abusive controlling self? BECAUSE I FUCKING DO! I cannot, cannot, CAN NOT deal with Sonny being self-righteous about Karen with Scotty or Jagger (even if I don't buy this dude as Jagger). If Sonny has actually grown any bit of a conscience in the years since then, if he actually loves his daughters the way this show insists he does, if we are supposed to buy that he is not an utter piece of vile, misogynist shit; he doesn't get to be snippy about Karen. Not to the people who actually cared about her, because he never did. He needs to be ashamed, he needs to accept their scorn and anger as deserved.
  2. I also wish TMZ, which defines 'scummy', didn't have this. There is no reason that the public needs to know this information. Tyler died, that's tragedy enough. What can making this public do but cause more pain to those who loved him? This is no one's business. To be clear, I'm not suggesting that this is something his family should be ashamed of or not be allowed to talk about. If his family wanted to release these details to bring awareness to addiction or mental health issues, that would be different. This is just TMZ being ghoulish. I hate it.
  3. When I was 14, I thought Kamar/Antonio was the hottest man I’d ever seen. I was so into Antonio and Andy, I can’t even tell you. GH’s Tom/Felicia’s sex scenes had made me cringe, I watched the A-Team’s* avidly. I couldn’t stand most of Antonio’s 2000’s run, but that can’t all or even mostly be put Kamar. I enjoyed parts of Tonio/Keri, though the writing was often dire (remember Carlotta’s rage over Keri’s bad credit? lol.) And he worked very well with Talia, even if it there were echoes to the relationship with Andy. Of course, that’s when TPTB, in their infinite wisdom, killed her off and let Kamar walk. *Yes, I remember their dumb couple name, before those were really a thing. Come to think of it, this may have been the couple who introduced me to online shipping.
  4. What I wouldn't give to have seen Stephen Nichols, Tyler Christopher, and Nicholas Chavez share the screen as three generations of Cassadines.
  5. Apparently Jonathan Jackson has long-Covid? His wording's a little vague, but he seems to say so in on Facebook in this little vid where he's pimping some food company called Azure. https://fb.watch/oyb3c17Q5-/ ETA: Sorry if this is old news, it's the first I've heard of it.
  6. Maybe they're trying to get Tony Geary back for that? That's all I can think of.
  7. Bye, Roger. It's a little ironic - Austin is the kind of character I actually wanted to see Howarth play. A long-lost Quartermaine, a doctor, a very non-Todd person. (I also wondered what he'd do as a recast Tom Hardy, though maybe he's a bit too young?) But after years of Franco, the well was truly poisoned. I was no longer capable of giving a shit and I don't really need to see Roger Howarth onscreen ever again. I can wish him well in life and remember his Todd with fondness (and other feelings that are not fondness, but liking Todd Manning has never been uncomplicated) and that's enough.
  8. Biologically? No. But Jake was adopted* by Lucky and Charlotte is the test tube rape baby of Lulu, so that's why Laura is grandma to both. *I say "adopted" b/c it's easier & shorter, but Lucky was Jake's legal father since birth and as far as I know that was never changed, even if this show pretends that Jason was an involved dad, despite the fact that before Jake was "dead"/kidnapped by Helena, he wouldn't have been able to pick Jason out of a line-up. This show has done Lucky Spencer so dirty.
  9. I don't know about that. I do remember that the two of them being engaged led to an incongruous scene where Brenda sat and monologued at Nik's bedside after he was shot even though the two characters had barely ever interacted before.
  10. I was wondering most about Stephen Nichols' reaction. They always seemed genuinely close and that came through onscreen.
  11. I remember those scenes as well, though I'm pretty sure the transplant had already happened. Then the confrontation when Lucky came in and then the conversation afterwards in the limo with Stefan. ("[Lulu] looked up at me like she knew me. Do you think she recognized my bone marrow?") I was fascinated. Tyler changed his name pretty quickly (I think within a year or two of taking the role), but in the beginning he was Tyler Baker and I can remember SOD articles titled things like "The Fabulous Baker Boy." He was very well-received and rightly so.
  12. Oh, that old trick. Where the writers throw a bone to the audience by putting an inconvenient truth in a character's mouth, but the character is evil and/or biased, so all the other characters can dismiss it and it has no effect on the story or show at all. Laura is never going to seriously grapple with her hypocrisy over Sonny and neither is anyone else.
  13. WHAT!? Blair doesn't even like That is 100%, grade-A, unadulterated bullshit, and I reject it.
  14. I remember Brenda wearing the wire expecting to prove Sonny's innocence. She genuinely believed he wasn't a current criminal. What I would like to see is Nina trusting her relationship enough to tell Sonny the truth. He wouldn't be happy and he wouldn't agree with her decision, but he would be able to see why she did it. He wouldn't turn on her or dump her. It's not even out of the realm for Sonny. Remember his most recent (I think) wedding to Brenda. The one Carly tried to bust up by (wrongly) telling him that Brenda and Dante had an affair? They didn't, but they were keeping a secret - I think about Brenda's son but don't hold me to that - and Sonny got over it immediately, much to Brenda and Carly's surprise.
  15. Wonder what Bo and Nora are doing now? I joked awhile ago that they both retired and went on a round-the-world cruise. I actually think Bo would enjoy retirement - he could spend his days fishing and camping and horseback riding and being a grandpa to little Drew - but Nora would lose her mind without something to do. Maybe she'll be like Hank and start teaching law at Llanview University. Oh, wait, even better. Fraternity Row hires her as a legal consultant and she regularly comes home ranting to Bo about the utterly insane things the soap does with courtroom stories.
