I wish I could say this directly to the production team for Love It or List It but since I can find no access to them I'm voicing my irritation here. Every time David successfully shows a house that's over budget he quickly explains how little the increase will impact the monthly mortgage. True enough in most cases, but NEVER, NEVER, NEVER does he (or for that matter the potential buyers) discuss the HOA fees. These fees vary widely depending on location, amenities, upkeep etc. They can have a substantial impact on one's budget and condo associations can have incredibly different opinions on fee increases and how monies should be spent. They can become quite contentious. Be aware and beware!

Nicolas Bechtel is a breath of fresh air. His portrayal of Spencer Cassadine has been flawless. He underplays the heavy drama, displaying a character with much pain within. This contrasts with Chad Duell as Michael, whose physical reactions to any situation are the stuff that soaps of old were famous for. Also a disappointment is the actress who now plays the commissioner. Even her off duty persona (is she ever actually off duty?) is one dimensional. I love GH and the majority of the cast really hits it out of the park. Even when the writers throw them a curve, they try to make their characters' personalities believable. Love the citizens of Port Charles!
