Last week's #GH highlighted the show's long, long, *long*-running problem with sloppy writing for a character who has absolutely aged out of the role he's supposed to be playing. My latest for Diagnosis Daytime pleads for change: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/09/crit...

Yuri backgammons; Carly corrects; Charlotte argues; Jordan smirks; Chase thinks; Valentin counsels; Hudson bores us; Willow wonders; Desmond wants to go home

Molly rolls her eyes, Joss is sarcastic, Alexis is appalled, Brook Lynn prays to St. Lila, Ava pauses, Dante does yoga

"This election is about the threat of trans kids" is the worst possible messaging for Dems yet so many candidates are leaning into it. No voter will flip R->D over it. Low-info voters read this as "you're focused on bullshit that doesn't affect me" while the base reads this as "you're an asshole."

Having a radio channel is great, but giving the airwaves to great curators is even better. Excited for our first Curator Spotlight show featuring @jefito.com's impeccable taste, airing today at 2pm EDT. Will be re-airing it at the same time every day, so tune in!

I went into last week's #GH with low expectations... and came away very pleasantly surprised, at least in some respects: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/09/crit...

Brook Lynn cries, Trina yells, Ned counsels; Emma and Gio sigh, Anna fires, Jordan questions; Britt rages, Drew smarms, Willow sasses

Just once in my life I would like to see a Democrat being interviewed by right wing media like Fox News or right wing media like every single other outlet treat their questions with the contempt they deserve. I know it's not going to fix everything or maybe even anything but how much coverage and how much groundswell of excitement from the base do you think it would inspire if when asked about "boys in girls sports" or some other stupid fucking culture war distraction one of them finally said "What the fuck are you talking about man? You sound like a dumb asshole right now."

What's the worst that's going to happen the New York Times is gonna work overtime to make sure you don't get elected? They were already doing that buddy.

You simply say "Are you stupid? Do you think I am stupid? And do you think all of the people watching at home are stupid? Everyone sees through what you are doing. Using one group as a scapegoat for the very real problems everyone has – all caused by Republicans by the way – unlike this fake one you have made up. Dumb asshole."

Just go on the attack for once instead of sitting there trying to please your enemy who is in the process of trying to humiliate you.

And if you want to say something else true that almost no Democrat ever says for some reason you can top it off with a “Every single Republican in our lifetime has sought to make our lives worse in every way possible. I’d like to try to stop that.”

This edition of Critical Diagnosis is late because I spent a lot of Labor Day weekend wondering what there is to say about #GH right now... and thinking about the show's relationship with the depiction of labor in general: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/09/crit...

Charlotte screams; Anna shoots; Nina picks, Ava ticks; Laura laughs, Sonny boggles; Outback sits; Tina sings, Gio plays; Baines gives orders; Sidwell sighs

A fully functional soap knows how to stagger its story-building so something meaningful is happening on any given day. Right now, #GH is not a fully functional soap. My latest for Diagnosis Daytime bemoans this sorry state of affairs: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/08/crit...

Lucas, Fitzpatrick, and a Swiffer; Laura looks; Brennan broods; Willow whatevers; Martin grimaces; Isaiah realizes he's being wasted; Anna can't breathe

Lucy's skeptical, Jason's malfunctioning, Joe's barely on, Phoebe's had enough of Joss, Trina's had enough of the writers, Sidwell's ready for his new cellmate, Curtis is behind bars

Scout is sad, Jacinda is mortified, Anna is pissed; Peter is slimy, Curtis is delusional; Willow is confused, Hudson is lame, Michael is in charge

Last week's #GH was stuffed with fluff, but we did get an intriguing recast and a Friday cliffhanger out of it. I go over the highs and lows in my latest for Diagnosis Daytime: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/07/crit...

Scout schemes; Brook Lynn's neck itches; Quinn seethes; Nina shoves; Britt has hat hair; Anna freezes; Tracy feigns surprise

Last week's #GH proved that while the show still has narrative momentum on its side, the writers haven't learned enough from mistakes of the past. My latest for Diagnosis Daytime breaks it down: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/07/crit...

Britt huffs; Jason weeps; Tristan grins; Anna and Valentin embrace; Portia contracts; Molly and Cody experience s'more withdrawal; Brennan and Nina smooch; Baby Ashford experiences his last moment of true peace; Drew shushes

Eddie Murphy's "Metro." The screening paused so EMTs could tend to someone in some sort of medical distress, and when the lights went back down and the movie started again, the audience booed.

There are a number of important things #GH is doing right — and there's at least one crucial area where the show is well and truly screwing everything up. My latest for Diagnosis Daytime: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/07/crit...

Chase thinks; Brennan disappoints; Liz deduces; Peter haunts; Anna panics; Carly and Valentin suck face; Jordan touches face; Fitzpatrick Fitzpatricks

Last week's #GH was an action-packed doozy that ended a major storyline in a way that sets the stage for several others to advance. My latest for Diagnosis Daytime offers two thumbs up: diagnosisdaytime.blogspot.com/2026/07/crit...

James and his uncle point weapons; Carly gets ready to swallow a planet; Cullum and Sidwell sneer; Joss and Liesl save the world; Fitzpatrick emotes; Nina wonders why Brennan isn't breathing; Z says hello

Rocco is pained; Felicia, Mac, Emma, and Anna are reunited; Drew is devious and Sidwell is intrigued; Charlotte is eavesdropping; the WSB is slipping; Fitzpatrick is a graduate of the Cameron Mathison School of Eye Acting; Alexis is exasperated

Grimly amusing Dem machines think they deserve some sort of entitlement hierarchy. My entire life, everything has been moving backwards, politically, democratically, bureaucratically, judicially. You are all failures. You are presumptively part of the rot that must be removed down to the root.
