I mean...fine to look at but he's no Ryan Paevey

Absolutely agree. But while the cats away…

And apparently Carly can go to hell?

Anyone else remember Sonny losing his mind when Connie (?) was at deaths door and he informed Carly if she died so would she?

It was Olivia when Carly arranged for Shawn to shoot Franco and Olivia was shot instead (by Ava).

THANKS, BRIABBA!!! I don't know where my head is at. I've been all caught up in my Australian soap opera, Neighbours (currently making my way through 2017 season) and have been shirking my GH duties!!! Go ahead and edit your title (if you want to) so all of us "learners" can find the May edition more easily.

Where are you watching that? Im intrigued. Its suddenly in the running for American emmys!

I'm watching it on Amazon Prime via Freevee. There are some limited commercials, but only during the day, not at night. It has been continually on since 1985, tried to watch the older ones because I wanted to get a peek at Guy Pierce, but couldn't get into it, so I skipped ahead to 2013 and started there. I had no idea it had been nominated for an American Emmy.

Thanks! I will check it out. I watch the British soaps on Britbox (only $7 per month and zero ads) but no Aussie programming as far as I know.

A little OT but I just learned that Maurice Bernard had his choice between playing Sonny or Damian Smith in 1993. He chose Sonny because the role was supposed to be short-term.

Well bummer…. Wink wink

I haven't really watched in the last 3 years or so (I just read the recaps occasionally & read the comments here) but I liked Sonny when I did watch. I know I'll probably be flamed for it but...?

It was short term. Sonny was on a few mos, left, then came back for a year or 2, left again, and then has stayed.

I haven’t learned anything yet, (except perhaps Dex can be a Mr. Towel substitute 😊). Oh, and I have a huge crush on Jack (formerly John) Brennan.

The writing and Storylines are SO convoluted. Too much going on, and Snarly is back to being inserted into everyone’s s life.

Bring back the Scab writers. They were awesome, and moved things along without sacrificing Character integrity.

They changed his name to Jack Brennan so they can keep John Cates as a character. Makes sense they didn't want two John's.

Thanks Justa! Duly noted!

Last I checked this is May sweeps. Someone let the writers know! This shid is boring!
