Fixed

I posted this because I rewatched the scene and you can HEAR Gio scream before they cut back to Joss/Trina and then the pool with Krissy in it.

After Kristina landed in the pool they show BLQ and Gio. Gio looks like he was about to scream but the scene cut to Kristina floating underwater in the pool. So maybe that is why Gio's face had that expression.

I trust MVJ knows what she is doing.

I say Lois & BrookLynn should revive L& B records on their own. Then have Blaze, Gio and Trina as clients. I did not have Lois & Sonny's friendship that went back decades blowing up on my GH Bingo card for 2024.

There is a difference here too: GH, AMC & PC had long histories. The Gates is a clean slate. This group will help create the History for The Gates hopefully long run.

Hopefully the fall-out will be good

MVJ worked with Guza & JHC all the way back to Santa Barbara & then over at GH. They work well together. When launching a soap & one where you never been EP or showrunner before, you need folks that you trust to help steer the ship. These are great choices by MVJ.

Sonny now calling Lois a traitor. OMFG that Ending

July was a mix of excitement & meh

True but also it was rumored Anne Sweeney wanted GH canned at the same time

I could be wrong and please correct me but wasnt AMC still over-budget in California with JHC as EP?

I really dont know who could EP and HW GH and get it back on track. It seems all the greats are retired, deceased or working on The Gates.

The Only HW GH will have for the foreseeable future are those who agree to write whatever FV and NV tell them to write.

I do wonder if Sheila Ducksworth, Leon Russell, Derrick Johnson, & Kimberly Doebereiner will be like Steve Kent at Y&R and be Execs in charge of Prod. Yeah that is basically what I thought and posted something similar below

According to soap hub, Guza and Hanan Carruthers will be EP's. They join Val Jean, Sheila Ducksworth, Leon Russell, Derrick Johnson, & Kimberly Doebereiner who will also EP. Never seen so many EP's for a daytime soap

That could be the lease of the studio

I guess thats possible. I dont think Karen would ever be cool with Sonny because of their past . At the same time, I dont see Karen letting what Happened 21 years ago run her life. if she was alive and brought onto GH, maybe she make John Cates see this as well. We will never know. YES And if PM was allowed to write what was planned, the story could have been good. We will never know.

One of the reasons ABC is sticking with GH is that is harder to launch a new show and they can look at NBC and see this. Maybe they figure they rather keep GH with its just under 2 million Views on ABC daily plus however it does on Hulu, instead of launching anew show that may not even get a million eyeballs on network not to mention on Hulu.
