GL: Week of June 4th


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Since no one has started this thread yet...What do you think so far this week? As for me:

I was expecting the Cassie/Josh scenes to be more dramatic but at least Cassie is sort of opening up her eyes a little bit more and wants to end things with Josh sooner than later-that is if he still has feelings for Reva which he does.

Harley is kind of bugging me. I mean I can understand where she is coming from about Gus and Natalia but why was she snooping in a car that doesn't belong to her? Do you think Natalia was going to have some raunchy sex letters she had written for Nick, oops, sorry Harley, I mean Gus. Speaking of that car, so is Main Street now a parking lot? Granted this show has seen some major budget cuts but Main Street has been used now as a parking lot, scene of a car crash, shoot outs, receptions, weddings, and so much more. Can Bill Gates just donate a million dollars to Guiding Light, just for new sets!? Sorry to complain, I just had to.

How about Griggs and Mallet at the end there. Do you think Mallet will let Griggs blackmail him and kill Matt? Probably not, but we will have to see how Mallet gets himself out of this one.

Did I miss why Buzz is wearing a sling? Has he even worn it before today? (Yeah, I'm gonna feel like an idiot if the answer is yes.)

That Griggs guy scares me. How did Blake manage to call him?

Love Griggs, and it worries me that it takes another man to make Mallot interesting... Darnell is as good as ever! I am now in serious like of what was once a nothing story.

Harley is an idiot. She is blaming Natalia because Gussie can't stay away from her? Sorry, you fool! Gus has some unfinished business. I have to say that I would much rather Natalia be paired with someone interesting, however...

Josh becomes more of a rat bastard as the days go by. Even Cassie is too good for him. However, I think it is so pathetic to make certain that your guy does not want someone else by forcing him to spend time with that person. Cassie should back away from Josh until she feels she can trust him and that she can't live w/o him. Josh, on the other hand, said quite a few offensive things yesterday. I just cringed every time he made Reva out to be someone who really meant nothing AFTER 30 YEARS.

Death to rat bastards all over the world!

No Reva makes for a pretty uninteresting show, but Darnell Williams did salvage it for me. This was the first nonReva eppy that didn't feel like I was watching for 6 hours...

Get it together GL!

i had the same question as you. i wasn't sure if maybe I missed something with Buzz. I don't think it was mentioned why he was wearing it at all but maybe i wasn't paying attention. As for Blake, I think she just found Mallet's suitcase or something and the number was in there on a sheet of scrap paper.

So this whole Cassie/Josh/Reva family love triangle has been going on for some quite time now. Since Cassie has become sort of "on edge" so to speak wouldn't she just attack Reva? We all know Reva would scrap back! Let's see the two of them rolling around on the ground and predictably have Josh break it up. We all know that they would appologize and continue to mope over the fact that Jeva has more history than Cosh!

wow, GL really bombed last week in the ratings!

but anyways, how crazy was it yesterday when Josh said he got drunk with Reva and then got in his car and drove around town! Good thing Frank didn't stop him or else he would've gotten a DUI. Harley had been getting on my nerves so she kind of redeemed herself today when she tried to comfort Natalia about the whole child thing. And that big reveal with Rafe with the gun and Gus pointing the gun at Rafe, and then Harley tells him "Don't shoot, he's your son!" was pretty intriguing. It'll be interesting to see tomorrow how this folds out.

I just finished watching Wednesday's show. I'm confused. Are they actually going with Cassie and Josh? If they aren't they need to make Josh stop sounding so sure of himself. He sounds like he's completely over Reva, which is just odd. His character is going to have zero credibility, if he keeps insisting he's all about Cassie and than just changes his mind again on a dime. As someone else said, Jeva are one of those couples that just always end up together. I expected him to at least seem torn during that walk down memory lane with Reva. :blink:

I like the teen scene in juvie more than I thought I would.

I hope Cyrus isn't about to screw Alex over.

I have a spoilerish question if anyone knows

I heard that they are really trying, so we will have to see...

As for Josh, let's tally...

1. Reva asked Cassie to help him with the project (not his penis) and go to meetings with him, and Josh slept with Cassie and formed a bond.

2. Cassie asked Reva to go to the jail and help Josh because he was having a difficult time behind bars and refused to see Cassie. The outcome: Josh slept with Reva and rebuilt the bond they had.

What does this tell us about Josh...

NEVER SEND A MOIST RELATIVE TO ASSIST THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He simply can't handle JUST help. Josh is too damn needy.

As for his credibility? That was shot to hell with his double standard. Reva shut him out and she was wrong. He shut Cassie out and slept with Reva, but that was ok... The man no longer has any credibility. RAT BASTARD!

The writing for Josh and Harley is the absolute worst!

    • To me, that made no difference. The point stands whether Eva wants to be a Dupree or not. Anita was 110% on top of things. Also it's a logical inference that Eva might be interested in having a place in her supposedly real family. Frankly though I wonder if Eva knows how to feel ... yet. She could really be confused.

    • Concluding 1976... Raymond Schafer arrives in Springfield and begins an extensive probe into Malcolm’s death, puzzling Ed, who wonders why most of Schafer’s question sessions keep turning back to Rita’s involvement with Malcolm. Ed assures the man that Rita’s only connection with Malcolm was as his nurse; he is unaware that Schafer knows a great deal more about Rita than he does. Just to protect Rita, Ed has Mike check on Schafer’s credentials, and learns that he’s a  well-respected criminal attorney. The waitress at the restaurant where Malcolm suffered his stroke tells Schafer that the woman who was with him reacted very professionally to the sudden emergency, as if she were a nurse. Realizing that her little sister has fallen hard for Tim, Rita warns him that she’s very vulnerable and innocent, but Tim tells Rita her advice isn’t necessary. But Tim then receives a plum job offer to be chief neurological resident at a prestigious Philadelphia hospital and can’t pass up the opportunity. Evie is crushed by the news and spends the next several days at home crying. Joe Werner, fully recovered, has accepted a post as a medical aide in a destitute village in India and leaves alone, with Sarah to follow him later. Justin asks Sarah to consider a partnership with him in private practice, but she explains that she thrives on the hospital atmosphere. When a call comes from India that Joe has had another massive attack, Sarah leaves on the next available flight and arrives only moments before he dies. The painful news is relayed back to Cedars at once. Sara returns from India a heartbroken woman, but the day-to-day involvement of raising T.J. and of her career seem to be her salvation. Justin shows a surprisingly compassionate and understanding side to Sara, but, ironically, Justin’s ex-wife, Jackie, arrives in Springfield with her diabetic father, who is suffering from a heart attack. In the process of consulting with Justin on her father’s condition, Jackie comes face to face with Sara for the first time since their college days. Evie’s heartbreak at Tim’s departure turns to fury and hatred when she inadvertently discovers a letter which Tim wrote to Rita just after he left. In it he concedes that Rita was right about Evie’s vulnerability where he was concerned but reminds Rita that he badly hurt her in the same way she feared Evie would suffer. Evie is now sure that Rita somehow forced Tim to leave town and is livid at the idea that Tim was Rita’s lover. She insists she’s cutting off her relationship with Rita and will pay her back for any help she’s received in the past. Ben and Hope’s wedding plans are off, as Ben, while still insisting he’s innocent, won’t explain why the robbery evidence points to him. Hope feels his unwillingness to tell her the truth makes marriage to him impossible, but confides to Ann that she is miserable without him. Ben has echoed these sentiments to Mike but won’t confide in him, either as Hope’s father or as an attorney.   Holly is trying very hard to build a life without Ed, but since she sees him virtually every day at work,she’s unable to put him out of her mind. She accepts a date with a member of the hospital administration staff but is unable to avoid making comparisons between Ed and this young man and winds up alone, sadly holding Ed’s picture and recalling how much she loves him. Believing that the hospital board’s conclusions on Grainger’s death have settled the question once and for all, Rita has regained her self-confidence, and her romance with Ed is growing daily. They admit their love for each other, and Ed confides that he intentionally  held back with Rita for fear of making another mistake. Rita then tells Ed she has never married because for her marriage must be forever. Rita’s mother realizes that Rita is truly in love when she confides in her that she doesn’t understand why she’s been so lucky in having him love her and how she wants to be the very best person she can be for him. Ed proposes marriage to Rita and gives her time to think about it before answering. Rita painfully realizes that her past could, if it rose again against her, make a life with Ed a lost dream. But Raymond Shaefer has been quietly but efficiently carrying on his investigation and has learned that Grainger argued with Rita at her apartment. He presents the evidence he’s compiled to District Attorney Eric Van Gelder, who decides the case warrants further investigation. Rita goes to Ed’s office to tell him she loves him but can’t marry him, that she doesn’t deserve him and “can’t do it to him.” As she turns from a confused Ed to leave, she finds the district attorney and a police officer outside Ed’s door, waiting to arrest her. Ed, insisting that a serious mistake has been made, calls Mike to help her as Rita, shocked and humiliated, is taken under arrest through the hallways of the hospital in which she works. Mike manages Rita’s release on bail only after she has had to submit to the degrading booking procedure. Mike sees her alone at her apartment, explaining he can help her only if she tells him the whole truth. Rita equivocates until Mike mentions Texas, indicating to Rita that he knows at least some of the story. Van Gelder has, in fact, let Mike see the bulk of evidence in the case against Rita, to convince him her arrest wasn’t a capricious whim. Rita explains to Mike that Malcolm believed she intentionally vilified him to his father, to do him out of his rightful inheritance, and then wanted his father dead to collect her money. Mike expresses his appreciation of Rita’s honesty, promising to help her. But Rita’s tormented dreams confirm that she hasn’t yet told all the truth, and after Peggy visits, expressing firm support, Rita tells Roger she has to reveal his part in the story. Roger painfully tells Rita about his being Christina’s father to show her that if Ed knew, it would end Rita’s chances with him forever. Rita, who was ready to tell Ed the whole story, now realizes how risky that would be. Adding to Rita’s pain is her forced leave of absence from the hospital until she’s cleared and the embarrassment of seeing her name in the headlines.

    • Yes, but the stories are all pretty awful Seeing Victor rehashing his hatred of the Abbotts  when he married one of them and has a daughter that is half Abbott as well as walking around with Traci's daughter's heart keeping him alive makes him look worse than he already is. And I remember he and Jack chatting amicably in the past few years. Victor interfering in Kyle/Claire is just repeat of Billy/Victoria. Sharon, Nick,Phyllis etc are around but again the stories are lacking.
    • I think Kevin's 1996 Emmy was fair enough. He barely appeared for his second. I don't think anyone else on the list is that deserving but I might have gone with Moore as he did try with the whole Keesha AIDS story. @alwaysAMC Thanks to slick jones' cast list I was able to see that Nikki Rene played Tina. Not much on her, as you mentioned. Tap and a few Broadway listings (it doesn't help that a younger actress with a similar name is in a lot of roles).

    • Thank you. That does ring a bell. I remember Theresa and Julian's drunk, giggly fake wedding (with Julian asking "Whassup?" to the minister). Was Bruce tricking the pair as a prank, or did somebody put him up to it? I especially liked Katherine recalling how dashing young Alistair was when he'd pick up Rachel for dates, and how she wished she could be her sister, then feeling guilty once Rachel had her boating accident ...
    • And Kevin Mambo beat Shemar Moore for those two Emmys. I chalk up the wins to the voters not wanting Jonathan Jackson to eventually end up with a five peat (he won 1995, 1998, 1999). These were the 1996 and 1997 Younger Actor races. 1996: Nathan Fillion, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow 1997: Steve Burton, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow
