Hi Honey, I'm Home!!

 


I guess I missed quite a week on the show!! I also missed quite a week OFF the show as well!! Twitter was just all a mess. The mainstream media has picked up on actor feuds and IG stories. I guess any PR is good PR for the show?? Hmmm. Not so sure. 

GIANT THANK YOU To DAVE for filling in. Such a great job and more comments generated than when I'm here! I think when I retire, I've found my replacement. 



First of all, I'd like to point out that MOSS was missing and replaced by some floating gardenias. Excuse me, unacceptable. Perhaps it is to showcase the "new beginning" Jarly? Oh boy. All I know is that it was the talk of twitter! 


On to the BIG NEWS-- and I'm not going into all of it here mainly because it's been done to death all over the net. It seems that Ingo Rademacher (Jasper Jax)  had a lot to say about mandatory vaccines and 'passports' over on Instagram. That led to fan and costar reactions which led to him doing 2 IG videos stating his stance on the subject. As the Deadline article points out, he also said some falsehoods regarding the vaccine as well. You and I know there are staunch proponents  of the vaccine (Nancy, Maura, etc) who are also vocal about masking.  There are  children on the set that can't be vaccinated yet (as they are under 12 years) so that's an issue as well. Steve Burton recently contracted COVID on the set and is out 14 days. This is a huge, hot issue around the country right now and ABC/Disney has already ordered mandatory vaccinations on most properties so I believe that has to be coming for GH. If you'd like to read more and see Ingo's videos follow these links: 

Daytime Confidential      Deadline         Soap Opera Network 

Even Kimberly McCollough (Robin) had this to say "better check yourself before you wreck yourself" which I believe is in reference to him calling fans "bigots" for using the #fireingo hashtag.  You think HR is busy this weekend? Oh I do! 


Other news? Well my friend and old co-podcaster Jamey Giddens (creator/ head writer of Ambitions) is going to Days for breakdown writing! This is amazing and I'm so happy.  Congrats to him! 


I am going to binge-watch GH today at some point. I will put some thoughts over on Dave's cheeky Sunday surgery tomorrow if he is agreeable to that. 


I had a wonderful vacation--full of lobsters and great times. I love Maine so much and went there as a kid every summer. Got married there as well. It's a wonderful place to visit if you haven't yet.

  1. What part of Maine did you visit as a kid? Wouldn't it be crazy if our paths crossed!
    GH was pretty good, PPL was not! So glad Harmony saw thru Esme, takes one to know one! 🤣

    1. I think she said Europe for a while checking out some art work she wanted to buy.

      Glad you enjoyed your time off. I'm from the Maritimes so I also love the lobster and good times.

  2. "think when I retire, I've found my replacement."

    What?!!?! Retire?!?!! NEVER! :) Well, unless GH gets cancelled.

    "First of all, I'd like to point out that MOSS was missing and replaced by some floating gardenias. Excuse me, unacceptable. Perhaps it is to showcase the "new beginning" Jarly? Oh boy. All I know is that it was the talk of twitter!"

    Stupid floating flowers!!! I want Tribbles back!! People have said that it could be for the wedding.. That's all well and good, but the wedding is in September!!!

    "It seems that Ingo Rademacher (Jasper Jax) had a lot to say about mandatory vaccines and 'passports' over on Instagram."

    Oy! So his family is not protected with masks then? What if they get Covid and are in the hospital? I wonder if he will change his mind.

    "Other news? Well my friend and old co-podcaster Jamey Giddens (creator/ head writer of Ambitions) is going to Days for breakdown writing! This is amazing and I'm so happy. Congrats to him!"

    Yeah I just read that on twitter! YAY! Congrats to him!

    1. Thanks for the links re: Ingo, Karen. I read them all. It seems that he took a stance against the vaccines being mandatory, but the bulk of his comments was against those that wanted him fired for his opinions. He was angry about that more than he was about the possibility of mandatory shots.

    2. This is more involved than just his 'opinion'. His stance may endanger others on the set and around him. Seems that it already has.

  4. Yes...what a week on GH. Glad you had a great time. My favorite place is Ogunquit ME. Been way too long since I've been there. Seems like you brought some nice cool air with you. Thanks!

  6. I don't like Nina but I hate Peter more. I REALLY don't like to see him threaten and torture a woman. Nina should just shoot him herself

    1. That disturbed me, too. It reminded me of when Stavros killed Chloe way back in the day. I squirmed. I do hope that Liz gets a chance to kill Peter (in self-defense or whatever), to pay him back for killing her husband.
