Tracy stealing Deception for BL has always been lame and I don’t root for them screwing over Maxie and Lucy who did all the work while BL was half assing things because she was either focused on music or spending the day creating desktop wallpapers of Chase to moon over. BL has never shown any business acumen, she’s a dim bulb who Tracy and others are doing all the work for while she gets the credit. Not all that different than her nepo baby cousin Michael. The fact that they keep bringing Tracy and ignoring ELQ is mind boggling. We heard her rant about the Cassadines before yet she’s meh about the fact that Valentin has had control of her family’s company since 2020?

I was never much of a fan of TB’s Carly either and truthfully, I recall feedback on her Carly to be much more polarizing when it was actually airing than recently. I also found her portrayal of Kim to be not great and was glad the character was written off after a couple years. However, I find LW’s Carly to be completely unwatchable and it’s been unwatchable through like half a dozen different HWs so I don’t think it’s all the writing. I didn’t find her take on her GL character Cassie to be particularly nuanced either. She leaned into smug and aggressive even when the writing really didn’t call for it and has consistently struggled with provided a layered performances

I don’t think Ava is entirely honest about not choosing sides between Nina and Sonny. Her actions all year have shown that she’s pretty firmly team Sonny. Hopefully it’s because she’s plotting but regardless, she really hasn’t been there Nina at all.

Doesn’t Sam know that Drew is acting unhinged? She was concerned about him not that long ago. You’d think he’d be the last person she asked to help with Danny. Even if she knows he won’t open up to Dante, I’m sure there’s plenty of other male figures in his life that she can have talk to him. Though I guess it’s a moot point since Jason will probably save the day and be the only one who can get through to him.

Same. I mean, the show barely pretends. He didn’t have an onscreen funeral either time he “died” and you’d think they’d kill for a chance for their leads to wail about him

Sonny is forever a hypocrite. Judging Jagger for being a bad husband to Karen. At least that man was in his early 20s when that happened and not still repeating the same patterns at 60. Plus referring to Karen by her stripper name was vile. He knew what he was doing

I find fights surrounding pre-nups to be antiquated. It doesn’t mean you are assuming that you’ll get divorced or that you think your spouse only wants you for your money. But it’s all for naught since I’m sure we’ll get an eye roll inducing speech from BL tomorrow about how she’d never ask for one because they are soulmates and Tracy will get shamed for being the only practical one in the room.

Losing Jason means nothing when everyone knows it’s temporary and the hotel was always a meh loss. She only got half of the already successful hotel because she traded those ELQ stocks that Lorenzo randomly gave up in the settlement of their short marriage. The “controlling interest” in ELQ that the show forgot about as soon as they mentioned it since Jax was never shown to be involved in the company after that happened and a few years later, somehow Edward had all the stocks and could redistribute them in his will. When she lost it because of her own get rich quick scheme, like 5 people offered to buy her the hotel back and it was only her own pride that kept her from getting it.

From what I remember, it was just that she (and Spinelli) could tell Austin was keeping secrets from her so she broke up with him because she wasn’t in too deep. The reason she gave was something along the lines of how she ignored a lot of red flags from Peter early on and didn’t want to make the same mistake twice.

Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t Drew’s prison stay even shorter than what he originally thought he was getting in his cake plea deal since Alexis blackmailed the judge to get him released? Yeah I get that he had to go to Pentonville instead of Spring Ridge but cmon. Alexis, Spencer, and Sam managed longer bids in Pentonville in the past 4 years and none of them have Navy Seal training or memories of being a mob enforcer. Also, Carly has never turned the other cheek ever in her life. The show is straight up gaslighting atp

Bobbie never sought revenge? Funny, that’s not how I remembered her. Maybe Carly genuinely believes that because Bobbie didn’t seek revenge against her but when she says things like that, it just make me see their relationship as completely one sided and that she didn’t know her mother at all.

Blaze should have let Kristina go and had this convo with her mother alone. I don’t think it’s fair to subject Kristina to the awkwardness and possible bigotry from her mother.

I can see why after that scene because they don’t have any chemistry. However, they give Carly these types of scenes with practically every newbie guy. I’ve never gotten why because it’s rarely ever led to anything

Carly: “I'm so sick of not being considered” This show will forever try to convince us that Carly is long suffering while never writing it. Guess I must have imagined Drew going to prison for her, being handed a successful business for $1, and everyone she cares about instantly forgiving her anytime she lies or keeps secrets from them.

Good for WL! Considering this gig and that Sydney Mikayla seems to be steadily working, I took their interviews about leaving the show to focus on school to not mean they were actually going to stop working completely. More like going to college full time meant they had less free time than before and had to choose between continuing on GH and pursuing other roles or a singing career and both chose to focus on the later, which at their ages is smart.

Ava disappoints me for falling in line with Sonny because she knows he’ll restrict her access to Avery if not. It’s been 7 years since he blackmailed her and Sonny is ripe to turn the scales and gain leverage so she can gain custody back yet nothing. This is also after years of Sonny saying that Carly was Avery’s mom and Ava was the bitch they had to deal with. Crazy thing is I can’t see any of Sonny’s other baby mamas acting like that despite Ava being the badass from a mob family. They will have done all they could to get their kids back.

She called her mamí

He said it on a Halloween episode back in 2018 or 2019. Danny dressed up like him as his costume. Sam was in her full on mob moll mindset at the time so she was ok with too btw. I guess back then, Danny emulating his criminal father was better than her having to wear a skirt and work in an office.

I could see them doing a Sonny/Ava hookup for the drama but in the end, it would be short lived and only Ava will suffer the consequences because it will further isolate her. They need to build up more solid connections to the canvas for her, not tear down one of the few she has left by having her betray a friend. That would basically only leave her with seldom seen Avery and as a talk to for Trina.

The way Molly and TJ are acting, I don’t think Kristina would even be allowed to properly bond with this baby as an aunt without them freaking out. It’s a mess on both sides and I hate that Alexis got shouted down when she was the only one who pointed out exactly what would happen.

You guys are way more optimistic than me. It would be a better story for Ava to be plotting but I think she’s relishing being close to Sonny. Why, I don’t know because he treated her like crap before NF and did everything he could to limit her time with Avery. But since Sonny’s in his betrayal era, at least them being close has an end date. If there’s a hint of Ava going behind Nina’s back to get with Sonny, no way Nina wouldn’t immediately tell him how his new bff knew about the SEC secret the entire time and initially encouraged Nina reporting them and later not to tell Sonny.

Carly doesn’t care anymore because she won- Sonny wants to divorce her. She got the main thing she wanted. She’s claiming the higher ground now but god knows she was smug as hell when Micheal bribed an official to charge Nina with a fake crime, when she realized that she had the Willow secret when she lost the MC, and like you said when she took over Nina’s job.

I saw that happening from a mile away and while Drew having egg on his face is mildly entertaining, in the end Carly wins. Drew was always nothing more to her than a Jason stand in who we all knew she would forget existed the moment Jason returned. Having Drew acts this way shields her from that criticism because now she can claim it was all because he’s toxic. And hey, bonus because the show hates us, Carly will be able to rant about Nina ruining Drew.

I said my feelings about Spinelli/Maxie yesterday but while it’s partially fan serve, I also think it’s mainly happening because they’ve lost interest in Maxie as a character so they’re pairing her off just to say she isn’t single anymore. I’ll be shocked if they actually get storylines together and we see them sharing a lot of scenes outside of the holidays and events like weddings or funerals. Spinelli will likely spend most of his limited screen time with Jason once he returns like always.

Karoke night is back but the actors were clearly lip synching to a recording instead of live singing like before and the show didn't want to sell out the funds for popular songs that most of us would recognize so I’m assuming it’s from the collection of random licensed music we hear in the background of scenes. Is Stone an anvil? I know Jagger’s son is named Stone but it was also Morgan’s middle name. Dan/Chris already knew that were being canned when they wrote this stuff and no one can convince me otherwise. This show has been at an all time low post Bobbie’s death.
