I don’t know; if Boaz sued, he might get blacklisted. I was a woman in a formerly male-dominated field, long before #MeToo or even Title IX, and there were a number of incidents where it was better to take a loss and try to get another job than try to fight, if I wanted to work in that city again. For Boaz or anyone in Hollywood to try standing up for a conservative political preference is career suicide.

It will be interesting to see what they do with the Chance character. He’s too young for the single ladies (and town bicycles) Sharon, Phyllis and Chelsea; and Noah’s ex Audra is a skank and not a very appealing one like Hilary was before she became Amanda. That leaves Sally, who is too young for Nick, but she and Nick do have great chemistry. We shall see.

It is courageous that the writers are handling the mixed-race issue with the child without making a big political deal. Starting long ago with Kristoff St John, race just hasn’t been politicized on the show, and I appreciate the normalized relationships. I’m wondering if the little Dominic kid actually is a child of Bryton’s or Melissa Ordway’s, since he is very comfortable with them. It must be confusing for a kid that young to hear mere actors spoken of as “mommy” and “daddy.”

I figure once they’re fired under such circumstances, they’re already quietly blacklisted. In such case, he has nothing to lose by suing. He could probably get a job for that new network started by Candice Cameron Bure playing “hunk of the week” on one of their tv movies.

Yeah, I see Chance was chatting up Audra at Crimson Lights today. I was baffled by the paring of Rey Rosales and Sharon, since he was about a decade+ younger and he was never going to be able to start a family with her (the same problem Carter Walton has on B&B paring him with these older White ladies whose characters are clearly past menopause).

I’m guessing Amanda is gone from the show now, since there’s no reason for her to return to town after Devon’s betrayal.

I don’t think Sally is too young for Nick, but I’m more disturbed that Nick would want Adam’s “soulmate.”

Bryton James doesn’t have any children in real life. I know he’s been dating co-star Brytni Sarpy for a few years now. Melissa Ordway does have two daughters by her husband, one adopted and one biological. The baby on the show (I’m guessing twins, since usually they need two at that age in case a problem comes up with one) does look like he could be the biological son of Bryton and Melissa’s, being very light-skinned Black with that tuft of blonde cotton, but no relation to the actors as far as I know.
