Between Franco’s over-the-top eulogy and Saint Sonny praying at the alter of hypocrisy yet again, it was terrible. I loathe the character of Sonny, absolutely loathe him. In what should have been a nice, touching funeral episode, granted for a character that should have been written out ages ago, it turned out to be mediocre, embarrassing and just plain bad.

I know it was corny, but I thought the escape room scenes were fun.

And Carly and A.J. still name their son Michael, and not Alan James Quartermaine, III. Not likely, since Michael was named for Sonny. There are a lot of WTFs in this episode.

So, let me get this straight. In this “what if...” episode, because Sonny wasn’t in the mob, he never donated money to GH to fund the Stone Cates memorial AIDS wing, so Robin ends up dying of AIDS? So now we have Sonny to thank for Robin being alive? Alrighty then.

Not at all GH related, but OMG the posters at SOC are off their meds. Between the constant Friz vs JaSam wars, the Sonny apologists, and the people who can’t construct full sentences, I’ve lost so many brain cells reading the posts, that I feel as though I am not much more than a plate of mashed potatoes on my mother’s Thanksgiving Day table. I try to be objective when I go to message boards, honestly I do, but the incoherent ramblings of the posters over there make it very difficult. I get it. I get the passion behind loving the show. I get that people are drawn to certain characters/couples. But the ignorance that has infected the boards there has reached a whole other level of WTF. We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread, already in progress.

Agreed. Anyone who can make Carly’s life miserable immediately becomes a favorite of mine. That’s why, as much as others detest them, I am a fan of Ava and Nelle.

Go a-head, discuss.

Sadly GH’s heart has shrunk to almost nothing. I can’t even begin to tell you how thrilled I am when Monica appears on the show. She is one of those people that just ties to the history of the show.

Are we certain that Marsha Cooper is considered part of the GH canon since Greg Cooper was mainly involved in a PC storyline? They’ve kind of muddled the line between what happened between the two shows.

Posted this on another forum as a response to a question about the list Laura found in Kevin’s office today: Ryan’s kill list: 1. Linda 2. Suzanne 3. Gloria (Felicia saw him kill her, setting off the whole story where Felicia lost her memory, and knew Ryan as Todd Wilson in 1992.) 4. Michelle (played by actress Alicia Brandt in ‘93, Ryan killed her.) 5. Deborah 6. Helen 7. Magi (?) I cant make the name out. 8. Jessica (Jessica Holmes, played by Starr Andreeff was a lawyer, Sean Donely cheated on Tiffany with, Ryan killed her.) 9. Connie (Connie Cooper, Ryan’s councilor whom he murdered played by Amy Benedict in ‘95) 10. Felicia. 11. 12. 13. Can anyone refresh my memory on any of the other names?

I wasn't keeping track either when those characters were first on. I found that Gwendoline Yeo played Kelly Lee starting on April 10, 2006.

And with the episode that aired today, the skip feature doesn’t work for GH again, dagnabit. I thought it was strange that ABC would allow a show that relies heavily on advertising dollars to use the skip feature. So it’s back to fast forwarding through commercials, not just Sonny scenes, Franco scenes, Jasam scenes...

I got nothing new to say about the show’s content, but I did notice that last week, if you record GH on TiVo, the skip feature now works to let you blast through commercials.
