That now makes FIVE musical acts on GH -- Chase, Hat Daddy, Eddie Maine, Violet, and Adam. Just ridiculous.

LMAO at the idea that Sheila should control story on B&B.

And now Adam plays the guitar and sings. Just what this show needs -- more music. Jesus. BTW, does anyone stand around the hallways and corridors of the hospital than Sonny Corinthos?

LOL You did not. But whatever gets you through the night. Yeah, I always love it when Sheila squints and calls Deacon "Daddy."

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks Kimberlin Brown's acting is overrated like crazy. That squinting to show emotion drives me crazy. And don't even mention tears. She can't bring them up. Your post is really special. For someone who calls him/herself "OpportunisticSlut" you sure are judgmental about someone enjoying shirtless men on the show. Your "find a decent porno film to watch" is just ridiculous. The FACT is that people can enjoy seeing beautiful men and beautiful women on the show AND comment about lousy acting and stories. And honey, if you have to go back 30 years-- THIRTY -- to tell me how good Kimberlin Brown is....well, you've done a good job on your own of explaining the problem.

Exactly how I feel. Sheila is no longer fun or threatening or interesting or scary. She's become a ridiculous caricature of what she once was. I want her GONE.

What sealed it for me was when Nina visited Chance in the hospital when he was shot. When she bent over to kiss him, she couldn't even bring herself to put her lips on his forehead. She got close, but no cigar. I'm sorry, no mother acts that way. It was just poor acting.

That singing was torture. Give me 20 seconds of it and I won't comment at all, but that went on FOREVER. GH acts like they've discovered some child singing prodigy AND THEY HAVEN'T. Of course, GH also acts like Eddie Maine is a Spotify sensation, so there's that. I haven't liked Diane since forever, for all the reasons you name. I think Carolyn Hennesy is a decent actress, but to be perfectly honest, I can't get past her right wing politics, and that's what I see when she's on my screen. I am probably unfair, but I feel like she's playing herself.

It's wearing thin because it doesn't make any sense. I can't figure out -- and no one has explained it to me -- how and why Tucker can impact these companies in ANY way. Jabot and C/W have teams of high-powered lawyers working for them, yet Tucker walking around the GCAC is enough to steal companies? Huh? Why would Jabot and C/W have to work together to fight this guy? It makes no sense. Re: your long post about Friday's episode, I agree with so much of it about why the actors made it work -- even though the story itself is so flawed. Here, though, you mention Tricia Cast and her expressive eyes, and I'm out on that one. I've enjoyed Cast in the past, but her recent stints on the show are lacking for me. I don't see any real connection between her and Chance, and while it'd be easy to blame Conner Floyd (Chance) for that, I blame Tricia Cast. Nothing about her performance seems warm or motherly.

Agree with you. Feels like they're giving Eden McCoy the Laura Wright playbook -- and that is not a compliment. In other news, that Quartermaine Christmas tree is lame. It's much too small and doesn't scream excess. Hopefully, the Tracy complaints we see in the previews are about the meager decorations.

Yep. I saw the spoilers for every day next week. It looks insufferable. Yeah, this story has really exposed John McCook as an actor. It's all been beyond awful. I'll co-sign to that. Ashley Jones is the only one who seems natural and comes across as a real human.

I agree about having Adam interact with Esme, Spencer, Trina, etc., would help. Still, even though the actor is 19 IRL, he reads younger to me. I don't think he seems like someone who'd be part of that circle. The crazy thing is that GH obviously did Maurice Benard a huge favor by hiring his son -- and then failed to set him up for success. Again, that's no comment on Josh Benard's acting abilities, because I thin he's doing a solid job.

GH: December 2023 Discussion Thread
I agree that Joshua Benard is a decent actor. I have no problem with him at all, and I'm not bothered that Mo opened doors for him. Like you, though, I don't yet see a reason for this story, and especially have a problem with Joss' constant involvement. If they're working towards a stronger tie to other characters, they'd better do it soon.

GH: December 2023 Discussion Thread
That storyline doesn't work for me either. Joss doesn't belong in it. It's not believable that she'd spend that much time with Adam on his studies and grades. Lining that up with her life with Dex is a complete head-scratcher.

Luna: "This party is incredible!" Honey, you're standing around in someone's living room with a bunch of dressed up people you see every day. Seriously? It's because we SAW all the cheating and now they're feeding us Eric as Jesus. It makes me gag. So much truth to all of that. I don't care about Eric dying, and I'm hate-watching this garbage while i laugh at it. Everything about this "last party" is a campy joke, from the set to the outfits to the crafts services food spread. None of the dialogue is remotely real or genuine. My favorite is when an actor pretty much says "We have to pretend that Eric isn't dying" while the look on his/her face says "My God, he's going to die right here." Oh, that and the multiple times Eric indicates it's the end for him and he's so glad for this "party." Kudos to remembering that Katie HAS to get a sob scene so her Emmy reel is complete.

Just started today's episode.... Christmas tree shopping. Who thought it was a good idea to line up a bunch of artificial trees and have characters pretend they're real? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

#1 with a bullet. We can start a separate thread to celebrate the at-long-last-death of a terrible husband, a lousy father, and a designer that Kohls would lay off after an evaluation that said "Makes the same thing all the time."

It's part of what makes this episode so laughable. IT not only tries to rewrite history, but we see all these women Eric treated like crap -- while the show tries painting him as some saintly genius. On top of that, we get this insistence on a frickin PARTY. LMAOOOOOOOOO Shouldn't that "final collection" and winning over Ridge been enough? This material is a laugh riot! Side note: I loved Hope's new hair when she first got the new cut and style. Today, the hairdresser who hates her was put in charge of making Hope look 10 years older and like Jane Jetson.

You didn't see today's episode? It was all about Blaze's worries about acceptance from her conservative Catholic family. That's after school special stuff to me, and as carolineg said, it's dated.
