He can hook up with Laura too. ; )

And, technically, I suppose he could hook up with Molly since there is no blood relation there.  His step-dad is her uncle and her half-sister's dad, but she has no relation to AJ or Carly and Michael has no relation to Alexis or Ric. It would just be skeevy... but is it more skeevy than Molly and Kristina being sisters and cousins?

Oh, he's free to not get the vaccine. He just has to do it on the unemployment line now. Choices have consequences.

It was never said that getting the vaccine guarantees you won’t get COVID, but it does significantly reduce your chances and if you do get infected, it reduces your risks of dying and of needing to be

This one hits hard. 70? My mom was also 70 and she died two weeks ago. Fuck cancer, indeed. RIP, Jackie, and if you meet my mom she'll have plenty to say about how she always rooted for Bobb

No blood relationship but Sonny adopted Michael (not step-dad) and he and Molly were raised together as cousins.

In retrospect, she was probably a better-rendered character than many on the show today, but she got on every damn one of my nerves. Also, her thing with Nikolas was, like, Sonny-level gross. I cheered when she died. Both times.

This was the first post I saw today.  Before I went to the previous page, I was sure this was referring to SWSNBN (she sure as hell got on my nerves) but I could only think of one (thankfully permanent) death for her so I was momentarily confused.

Now there's a "death is not an option." Katherine Bell or SWSNBN. Godawful blond bombshells who were both Nikolas love interests.

I'd really have to put the thinking cap on as to which one I was gladder to see go. SWSNBN narrowly takes it. Katherine was around longer, but I felt in that case they were desperate to make it work because she was played by a popular daytime actress with an established fan base, and Evans can in fact be good if the material is there. With SWSNBN, there was urgency to make her happen just because she was tied up with the other characters who were eating the show, and Frons had a thing for the actress (who brought with her no fan base to speak of; her biggest pre-GH credit was "Mary's Girlfriend #2" on 7th Heaven).  

Also, as useless/grating as Katherine was, the Riche-era show around her was better. And she wasn't getting into Toonces-type car accidents every three months.

I didn't understand the Jason clue.  He said "dizygotic or monozygotic"  as if the guy should have been following the storyline.  (I think Jeopardy contestants have better things to do than watch this show.)  The clue should have specified that they were monozygotic twins.

The contestant actually got money back because the judges realized the question wasn’t worded correctly.

She actually played a legacy character during AW's final months in 1999. Not much, but I'd argue a bigger credit for her prior to GH (not negating the awfulness of her GH character, of course!).

From SOD:

Chloe Lanier is reprising the role of Nelle on GH, which she vacated in August, for a short stint starting next week, and in the new issue of Soap Opera Digest, she cops to battling nerves when she returned to the set. “Not doing it for two months, I felt like, ‘Oh, wait. I forgot pretty much everything.’ Mentally, it was a little overwhelming at first.” As for what brings her jailbird character back to the canvas, she teases, “She definitely has some unfinished business with some people.”

 

I guess that means the baby switch will be resolved sooner rather than later :(

That's kind of pathetic, to attack fans because they don't like the characters you're playing while also acknowledging that it's not the actors, it's the writers' fault.  Whether you agree with NLG or Jon Lindstrom, at least they're tweeting about bigger issues than getting mad at fans who don't like their fictional characters.

Maurice and company are smug and entitled.  This isn't shocking.  They get all in their feelings about people not liking the show centered around that TRASH.  It wasn't even a bash.  The opinions in that thread are well stated and those two (Wright and "the master) have nothing intelligent to say but post lame comebacks and stupid gifs.

I’ve not read any of these tweets from actors or viewers. I don’t understand why the actors would get upset or offended when viewers don’t like the scripts or acting. It’s fiction, people. It’s pretend, people. Just as I can’t understand why anyone would care what political views an actor or singer or writer or artist holds. They don’t care what political views I have and we both have one vote. I guess I’m too old to care about this type of crap. Plus I don’t have to earn a living on a soap.

top-notch gynecologist in the medical profession

As opposed to a top-notch gynecologist in the world of professional stock-car racing? Fairman's intros are always so poorly written/copy-edited.  

I just belatedly worked back to the Tamara Braun interview, which is a good one. She clearly doesn't love the way Kim has been written in this Oscar cancer story, and manages to make that clear while still looking like a team player and not ruffling any feathers with the writers. A daytime pro.

On the podcast, Ramsey said a couple of months after they started dating he and Laura were talking about how fun it would be to work together and LW said, "oh, you should come to GH, you're so good, you need to come back to daytime." He said he replied he was open to the idea. Then in September he read for FV. He had actually read for for Frank for OLTL in 2009. Frank said he had wanted to cast him but he didn't get the part because the show was on its last leg and Frank said to him he "didn't want to do that to you in that way then." Which seems to me that Frank told him they didn't hire him because Frank didn't want WR to get the role only for the show to be cancelled on him. .

Anyway, then he said that "[After that] Frank had never forgotten about me - I just didn't know that. So I was thrilled to read with him again." He said that Frank told him he had been wanting to work with him since the first screen test. 

WR and SB both say if anyone thinks the reason he got the job is because of LW that is not the way it works at all.

This was funny:

WR: Thanks guys for calling my agent and setting up [this podcast].

SB: Your agent Laura?

Max Gail drives a van and dented SB's car. Hee.

I was just about to post that! It's really interesting.

It is! I totally believe her because I remember when they first came back to Port Charles and she was showing Lucky around town, they visited the graveyard where Lesley was buried. She'd never seen the stone before, and Lucky asked why something or other wasn't on it. I can't remember the details, but Laura wasn't sure what was up either. And then nothing came of it for several years, but that kind of backs up her story about thoughts she has when returning. 

As I recall, Genie really didn't want to return because she was stretching as an actress at AMC. But because it was the same network, she didn't have much choice -- they just killed her AMC character off. 

Anyway, as it happens I think the 90s L & L were much richer than any version of them before or since.
