    Yes, they would as we see w/Nelle! 

    IMO, it’s sick that they want Wiley to hate Nelle. Nelle is dead. She can’t do anything to them anymore. At the end of the day, they won, and it still isn't enough for them!!! The woman is permanently out of their lives, and they still trash her. And they want Wiley to think she was evil and awful. It's sick and weird. They are awful human beings! 

    Oh, they'd have to do many, many hours of penance and get countless hours of therapy before one could honestly call them awful human beings.

    So the news that Jane Elliott is coming back for a spell seems to be leading to speculation that the show might resurrect Luke for the 60th anniversary. 

    It is highly unlikely the show truly intended to kill Luke Spencer off in an offscreen ski lift accident. Whatever happens or whoever appears, there is no way IMO that that was not intended as some fakeout. In the meantime, it is insane that no one on the show has taken retribution against Victor for allegedly executing it. Laura, Robert and Lucky alone would not stop until he was dead.

    I will not be surprised at all if TG appears as part of the anniversary to resolve this, but one way or another whatever people's feelings about Luke or TG it is ridiculous they have left that story point hanging for so long.

    I can remember when Luke/TG was "must-see" soap and sadly, am one of his few supporters on this board. A return would be mind-blowing if the Actor is amenable to it. Everyday life in Amsterdam can't possibly be so compelling that TG couldn't take a few weeks away. Plus, I read that he simply adores JE, so a return from the dead might be a possibility. After all, Laura returned from the dead so many times that the GH kid characters actually made a game of it in the 90s.

    Willow was unhinged today.  Just unhinged.  They went way too far with this situation.  I've reached the point where I'm highly annoyed that Nina is saddled with this nutcase.  And yes, I am fully aware Nina ain't playing with a full deck herself.  That's how bad Willow is though.  

    I really don't think this show puts enough focus on the fact that Nina and Willow both have diagnosable mental illnesses. In the real world neither one of them would or should be allowed around vulnerable children.

    Joss wants to cuddle with Dex outside at night in upstate New York instead of going to visit her brother after she found out his wife has cancer and is pregnant.

    Disgusting. If there was ever a good time for a truly effective double hooking that was it.

    I know some like Esme, but she is a nutjob. They have yet to flesh out her character, and talking to her unborn child and naming it Ace is not character development. Why is Esme doing her dad's bidding? Is she that desperate to be connected to him? Does she have any personal desires, dreams, or goals for herself? Does she truly want a child? This is a lifelong commitment she's making on what seems to be a whim to further her dad's idiotic plans to reunite w/Ava. Does she actually think her dad has a chance of reuniting w/Ava after he killed Ava's daughter? If so, she's just as deluded and whacked out as her dad.

    I couldn't agree more. As introduced, Esme has been nothing more than a one-note, "totally misunderstood bad girl/psycho" with no other identifying characteristics. Even the last bad-girl, Nell, dragged that ridiculous vision-board around with her like it was some kind of security blanket. But it also gave Nell some context and humanized her in a way. She was a person, despite doing awful things, that harbored some kind of hopes and dreams for a better future. We get none of that from Esme. I really do believe she's not faking the amnesia, and if so, it may be permanent, giving the writers a window to redeem the character.

    Must be an interesting county fair where the Governor can walk around with a woman wearing a beat to shit face and no one pays the least bit of attention.

    I'm brand new to the show, but damn, some of these Yellowstone women are so bashed-up in the face due to all the fighting they do.  A plastic surgeon's dream. And yes, as another poster said, John Dutton is a cowboy version of Tony Soprano. But a lot deadlier and ruthless apparently. Tony engaged in a lot of hand-wringing (mostly) before deciding to kill people.

    The kid in the photos did not look like a kid who never had a birthday party. Perhaps Faison was secretly a Soccer Dad! 

    Funniest thing I've read in ages. I can just imagine Faison saying "no time to stalk Anna today or to try and kill Robert, Luke, or Duke. My little Britta has a recital this afternoon and I've got to be in the front row."

    Britt's birthday/going away party was about KT leaving the show, not about Britt. Those photos, from KT's childhood to the snaps with co-stars, there were a handful of them from scenes from the show, but everything else seemed to come from either KT or her co-stars.

    The photos threw me at first because so many were not anything from the episodes. KT seems to have been a joyful young girl who loved life. She was smiling in virtually every childhood snap. Probably has made her RL parents very proud and happy, methinks. As others have posted, KT certainly appears to be a fave among her co-stars, much as Kristoff St. John was over on Y&R before he passed...

    Took me quite some time to warm up to Britta/KT, but now I'll certainly miss her. Has there been any rumors about her next gig?  For some reason I really see her doing will on a CSI-type of procedural.

    Let the Cyrus redemption arc begin! ..cuz we will need another good actor out and about in Port Chuck with KT leaving. 

    Cyrus was clearly today's MVP. And he really shouldn't have to cajole Laura into accepting his help against Victor. Right now the body count is relatively low, with only Luke (for whatever reason, seems like a pointless off-screen kill). Victor defines "clear and present danger" as he's shown no qualms about taking out Laura, Lesley or anyone else he deems necessary.

    Did anyone else catch that Martin got ahead of Cyrus with not one, but two scriptures to mockingly support the latter's argument? Maybe Awesome Writer can craft a scene where Cyrus quotes Ezekiel 25:17, ala Jules Whitfield in Pulp Fiction.

    Chase isn’t the worst singer in the world, but he’s far from special. Please, please stop trying to make him happen, Show.

    The main problem with Chase (as well as the Actor), is that I don't see or hear the love for singing. Rick Springfield and Jack Wagner (despite his issues) seemed to have equal passion for acting and music.  Even John Stamos looked like he enjoyed drumming and the guy was no Ringo Starr.

    For some reason I've always loved this obscure Jack Wagner GH duet from back in the day: Jack Wagner and Edie Lehmann

    Is it me to does it seem like someone bts is especially desperate to build a following for Joss/Dex?

    More than that, can anyone else recall a Soap with virtually NO couples you can root for? Mac/Felicia feel like an obligatory root because they're Legacy characters. Austin/Maxie was a misfire from day one. Dante/Sam are just kind of...there (and he deserves better than Sorry Sam). Ned/Olivia? No one really cares. Curtis/Portia had potential, then he turned into an insufferable arse and she into a boring, squealing schoolgirl. Sonny/Nina? Old psychos in love. Laura and Kevin haven't been on in ages.

    I'm really missing the heat we used to get from Alan/Monica, Luke/Laura and even Robert/Holly (90s iteration). The couples we're stuck with now don't generate as much heat as Lee and Gail Baldwin, sadly.

    MC was more thuggish in his acting choices, whereas TC (at his best) had that classic Cassadine balance of nobility and menace.

    Fascinating coincidence - the other day after Nic's faux "reveal" about Elizabeth, part of Ava's response included "the two of you rutting like pigs." That was the exact same line Lucky used years ago when he discovered Nic's real affair with Elizabeth. Wonder if that dialog was written by the same scribe, or just a fun call-back?

    Chavez gives Spencer BDE,  and I think they like utilizing that, but the scenes where he punched Dex and the immediate aftermath were bad writing IMO.   It just came out of nowhere.  

    Interestingly, Spencer seems to have a strong self-destructive streak that typifies every Cassadine male with the possible exception of Victor. And maybe Stefan. I'm kind of surprised that Laura hasn't fully recognized this and done more to address Spencer on his behavior. Otherwise, it looks like he'll be spending a lot more tine with Uncle Cyrus.

    It cracks me up that Cyrus has a Bible verse for every occasion.

    It makes sense, though. The way JK plays Cyrus, it's clear that the character spends a lot of his available time reading, explaining him having at least one Scripture in his holster at all times.

    Anna hiding out in Ireland with Tiffany isn't exactly going off the grid. Anyone who knows Anna's history could eventually figure that out.

    Agreed. Back in the day Anna frequently mentioned Sean Donnelly as her mentor. Speaking of which, this S/L would be a perfect occasion to loop in Sean's daughter, Anna's namesake.

    I had NO IDEA it was Jane Curtin--I really am old!

    Boy do I really miss Kate and Allie. It was one of the 80s best and most under-rated sitcoms, and Jane really shined.

    But all I get on TV Land is 20 hours of Two and a Half Men every week.

    So... Joss comes across a woman gutted by a fish hook by a serial killer and does not know the appropriate first aid, and for this she simply must alter the course of her life and become a doctor?! I guess she will become an emergency room specialist then, and not a proctologist? 

    Well in all fairness, a lot of PC residents could benefit from a good Proctologist.

    UO here, but I like Ethan and will enjoy his brief return. I hope it’s soon, because poor ES is clearly in need of more rest and looks like she’s not enjoying a minute of this. I wish her well.

    ITA about Emma Samms. Seems as if working is unpleasant/uncomfortable for her due to the Long COVID, but she needs the paycheck. She clearly appears "off," unwell. It's fortunate for Emma that she's surrounded by vets like TR, GF, and CS to carry the load. Hope to see ES again when she's in better health. Seems like it's going to take science awhile to figure out the Long COVID issue, sadly.

    I finally saw the 2023 Puppet Martha commercial. OMG Why??? Why would they do that???

    A little late to the Party on this one, but Puppet Martha seems 1,000% more chill than real-life Martha. Maybe it's those Cannabis gummies she's taking for her Glaucoma?

    Robert setting a trap for Holly was evident but I enjoy having them, Mac, Felicia, Laura and Victor involved together too much to complain. Had Martin and Cyrus gotten into to it, I would’ve been in nostalgia heaven. (I first became a fan of Jeff Kober through his work on China Beach circa 1988.)

    Based on Monday's previews, Robert F! Scorpio is BACK. And the Axel F Theme won't stop playing in my head.

    Re: "The Houston story." Stephen A. Smith is a Yankees fan, and I don't know whether MB is, but his character is. The Houston Astros have thwarted the Yankees over and over in recent years. It sounds as though Brick and Sonny went to a road game or playoff game and got into a fight with Astros fans, judging by the little bit we got about idiots in a private box. 

    Maybe it stems from my strong dislike of Steven A. Smith as a sports pundit, but every time Brick comes on screen I wish someone would punch him in the mouth. So smarmy and disingenuous.

    I also found it strange that Heather could have been halfway to Canada but stopped off for a BLT first.  I get that it's a running gag (Allan gave me this house) but it's not realistic, no matter how cray cray Heather is,  AM was playing it that she didn't want to run and that Heather was perfectly happy with Dante bringing her back to Darkham.  

    Totally. In her talk with Anna in the van, Heather made it so clear that she was very happy being institutionalized. Sometimes when people have been "away" for so long, the prospect of life "on the outside" terrifies them. That's why most of Heather's conversations deal with events that happened over 40 years ago. Life was so much more manageable for her back then.

    Also, and this may be a matter of personal preference, but who the heck puts ketchup on a BLT??? For me it's Miracle Whip all the way!!!! Ketchup is for the fries, along with a nice salt-and-pepper mix. Slaw and lots of pickles on the side are must-haves.
