If they’re doing Tracy/Martin, I’m here for it. Two veteran soap actors, with JE famous for turning, as Soap Confidential likes to say, “sh*t into sugar”.

Tracy can’t be with someone too good, so shades of grey with a Tad twinkle in his eyes Martin is fine with me. She may also try to get back at him for Tracy putting him up to seducing her, and/or make her jealous.

Agreed! I even included them in my list of couples I'm interested in. Actually, three of the couples I mentioned I like were: LL2, Tracy and Martin, and, yup, Jason and Sasha. 

I think Tracy and Martin showed a nice spark in that scene, and JE and MEK are both amazing, fantastic vets. 

Sasha has grown on me. We are indeed seeing her as part of the Scorpio family, and I enjoyed the scene with her and Jason. My two fave Jason relationships were Jason and SJB's Carly (and I realize now that was 100% chemistry related) and Robin.  Sasha has that same good girl quality with the sense of right, but speaks her mind too that Robin did 

Yes, she's younger than him, but if they can work well together, I'm OK with that. And I like the full circle story of Jason helping with Michael's baby--esp if he doesn't tell Carly, lol!

From SON. Chad discusses why he’s leaving the show. And they’re not recasting because they’re holding the role open if he wants to return 🙄

So, basically a mini mid-life crisis? Understandable. I wish him well and hope he makes lots of money offscreen, gives up acting and lives HEA.

It sounds like Chad wants to just 'take a break' and an agreement was made to hold the role open for him for at least a specific amount of time.  (insert massive eye roll)

I am also giving a massive eye roll. I'm fine with him wanting a break—don't we all?—but I'm a bit peeved that the show seems to be holding the role open for him. It's not as if he's off to make a movie or something, where there's a return date. Why Frank is okay with holding the show hostage is beyond me.

But at least the show seems to realize Michael won't be around for much longer and is attempting some sort of exit story for him.

After 3 months, they should start looking a 30something actor who is hot and can play with some edge. He can be blonde, brunette or even go back to his back to his toddler red hair. He can show up when Sasha is ready to give birth.

[threebluestars]

So I can see this playing out as Willow/Drew do something to ensure she gets the kids and he gets no visitation, so he leaves town, which frees up Sasha to pretend the baby isn't his for longer.

So FV is going to hold the show hostage on the off chance that CD who sounds like he's burnt out and living far from his family might return.

That's exactly how you conduct business. 

[Auntie Velvet]

It sure sounds like they're going to have "Jason pretends to be the father, Part 2 (3?)" with Sasha.

Which is actually in character for Jason, so I can't complain on that front. But SM and SB are not the strongest actors on their own. Together? Not looking forward to that.

But who knows? Maybe it will work. 🤷‍♀️

UGH. Like he's some major thespian and the role can't be recast by a better actor? PUHLEAZE.

So same old, same old... The mother-in-law from hell.

When faced with further trouble, Portia [Brook Kerr] may find herself resorting to tactics similar to those she deployed against Heather [Webber, Alley Mills].

She's going to do more illegal things as she did when she changed the blood test. Portia  is the Black Carly.

More whitewashing of Sonny.
