  1. Laura is letting the fact that she had a mental breakdown, was catatonic & recovered cloud her judgment regarding Heather. With the Cobalt poisoning, Laura's asking what life would Heather have if not for the hip replacement. Both their situations are different though. 

    I feel Laura needs to see someone to deal with the time she was catatonic and what caused that and finally start to deal with that. If she did this, she would see that her and Heather's situations are vastly different & unlike Laura, Heather may never get her life back.

    Damn I wish they would bring Denise Alexander as Lesley back so she could help Laura see that Laura and Heather's situations with Mental health are totally different. That Laura cannot make Heather what she used to be & Heather may never fully recover her previous life.

    Due to coverage of the solar eclipse,
    GH might be preempted Monday April 8, either in some timezones or nationally.
    To be announced.  Check your local listings. 

    Saw a Preview during 911 tonight. It was from ABC and said Solar Eclipse coverage begins Monday at 1pm

  3. Maybe PM/EK are following Marland's rules

    The rules:
    Watch the show.
    Learn the history of the show. You would be surprised at the ideas that you can get from the back story of your characters.
    Read the fan mail. The very characters that are not thrilling to you may be the audience’s favorites.
    Be objective. When I came in to ATWT, the first thing I said was, what is pleasing the audience? You have to put your own personal likes and dislikes aside and develop the characters that the audience wants to see.
    Talk to everyone; writers and actors especially. There may be something in a character’s history that will work beautifully for you, and who would know better than the actor who has been playing the role?
    Don’t change a core character. You can certainly give them edges they didn’t have before, or give them a logical reason to change their behavior. But when the audience says, He would never do that, then you have failed.
    Build new characters slowly. Everyone knows that it takes six months to a year for an audience to care about a new character. Tie them in to existing characters. Don’t shove them down the viewers’ throats.
    If you feel staff changes are in order, look within the organization first. P&G (Procter & Gamble) does a lot of promoting from within. Almost all of our producers worked their way up from staff positions, and that means they know the show.
    Don’t fire anyone for six months. I feel very deeply that you should look at the show’s canvas before you do anything.
    Good soap opera is good storytelling. It’s very simple.

     
  4. Today was really good

    Anna was on fire

    I liked the Jason Jake Liz stuff

    Jake has the right tobe mad and I am glad his folks reconize that

     

    I also really like the actors that play Jake, Rocco & Danny

    They are actual teens

    Teens are awkward 

    So their acting works for me. 

    IF and WHEN Lucky returns, I hope Aidan gives him hell for Lucky rather helping Orphans than seeing his actual son. I do not want an instant loving reunion.

    Does anyone else do the mental calculations every time DAYS releases a spoiler?

    So, he said he's going to LA next week, which is April.  Plus six months makes it October. 

    Good news, I'll totally forget by then, and it will be a nice Halloween surprise.

    According to Jason 47, Days is filmed up to the episode that airs November 11, 2024

    Not at all. Makes her look very petty; yes, it sucks you lost your job, but.... it happens. Not the first time and won't be the last.

    And doubtful that was her intention but I agree

    Jason may be innocent. But Carly is making it like Jason is the victim here. He is not. Dante is the victim here and she isnt seeing that. She is so laser focused on "Save Jason"

    About Optics if any more writers are fired, they'll be white & then the Optics won't look the way they do tonight. Please do not think I am wishing firing on anyone. Just may be what it may be. 

    Charlotte Gibson is still a on staff scriptwriter

  8. Rick Webber 2002

    I wish they never did that crap. Rick only ever cheated with Monica. He was not a serial cheater. That was his brother Jeff.

     

    He should be alive.

     

    I love Sprina but honestly some of the Sprina fans on Twitter

    Supposedly NAC unfriended Taby there  and some are like is he whitewashing GH

     

    Nope, his twitter still has his GH tweets up from when he began on twitter

     

    Some like to be petty and have conspiracy Theories  UGHHH

  9. Not giving Heather a pass on anything but Jeff, Joe Kelly and Scott all used her and treated her poorly

    Jeff Cheated, Joe Kelly used her cause he thought she killed Diana and Scott saw her as a way in to get Jason's money and none of them took any responsibility in their parts in this

     

    I do feel RE Joss its all about How Eden choses to play scenes

     

    As for Trina, at first I thought GH was waiting for nAC to come back to use her more and was banking her guarantees but Spencer aint back yet and I am glad they are starting to use her more

     

    Not mad at seeing Cyrus less or even Martin HOWEVER given they are Laura's family, I hope they continue to recur.
