And Greenlee intended (and did) steal Spike and has lied to the police, to Kendall, to anyone that she couldn't manipulate into falling for her sob story or guilting into silence for not being there for her childhood when they never even knew they were her parent. She clearly intends to keep the lie going.

When you have a car accident due to something you did that caused it - ie, reaching for a cell phone, you are negligent. People do get charged with crimes for wreckless driving. Drunk drivers have accidents too - and they are criminally responsible. And when you have an accident in the process of committing another crime, you get charged through the nose. Greenlee did not just have a tire blowout that caused her to go over a cliff. She was reaching for a phone and not paying attention to the winding road. And doing so to cover her ass because she never showed up at the hospital because... she was kidnapping Spike. You do realize that had she made it across state lines, her going for that cell phone would have been another crime on top of kidnapping a child and taking him over state lines? So who is twisting what?

And guess who would not have had to "realize she was doing wrong" had she not kidnapped a baby in the first place? That would be Greenee. She doesn't get a cookie because she changed her mind about a crime she was committing after already committing the crime. She did not just "think about taking off with Spike. She turned the car away from Pine Valley and took him. She never would have had to turn that car back around if she had not turned it away in the first place.

Guess who is also still lying to, deceiving and betraying people. Greenlee for the win again! She did not confess to Kendall that she actually steal her child and that is the reason she got into that wreck in the first place.

Oh poor Greenlee. She was in an accident too. An accident she caused after kidnapping a child, reahing for the phone after freaking out because her victim wass crying. We should feel bad for her too because it's Zach's fault... blah blah blah... she "saved" Spike... blah, blah, blah... It's the roads fault for not following Greenlee's car... There is no room for me to feel sorry about Greenlee when she hogs up all the resources feeling sorry for herself and wrapping herself in lies and revision to ignore the fact that she is a kidnapper.

Don't go on making the assumption that I care a bit for Tad. I haven't since he lied about Miranda and Adam III for the same reasons I can't stand GreenMe. But If we're talking about Madden - he was a grown man. Spike was a baby and Greenlee committed a crime against him. And can't express remorse because she's too busy making herself a martyred hero for "saving" Spike from the injuries her n-e-g-l-i-g-e-n-c-e and criminal activity caused him.

And as long as we're writing thigs off as merely accidents, as though the people behind the accidents contributed nothing to their situations, Madden "accidentally" died. It's the earthquake's fault, not Tad's. If Dixie had never given Kate up for adoption, Madden would still be alive. Tad shouldn't even be charged with a crime because he didn't mean for Madden to drown in that coffin Tad buried him in.

Really, the only difference between Greenlee and Tad is that Greenlee's intended victim somehow maganged to survive what she did to him, while Tad's did not.

Pfffttt it does NOT matter how long Spike was taken for, he was still KIDNAPPED. 10 seconds or ten minutes, in the eyes of the LAW it's kidnapping.

I'm curious what consequences has Greenlee faced? She got a shiny new boyfriend out of the deal, Annie is her BFF and Ryan's close to forgiving her?

Seems like she got off alot easier than Babe. I hate what Babe did, but Babe did more damage to Binks than Miranda, Greenlee did LASTING PHYSICAL DAMAGE to SPIKE, damage he'll have to live with the rest of his life.

Greenlee intended to take him long before this incident, remember the lawsuit? She did that to hurt Kendall and Ryan cause they wouldn't kiss her skanky ass

Sorry, but Babe was hardly punished! Babe saw her son more during those "3 hr" vists than she ever does now that she has him living with her now! And David, her dad, was the one who did all her commmunity service! All Babe did was bitch & moan during that time, & acting like she didn't deserve it! Well, after the HELL, she put both Bianca & JR, in making them believe their children "dead", I say she deaerved it, & more!

thats not true. She sees Lil A every day and definely more than when she lost him. JR stayed true to that for months and only started to lighten up when they started to use each other. Her probatiom and community service happened off screen just like Kendall's and everyone else involved in the Cambias murder. Babe's punishment may not have been much but the fact is she WAS punished. What she did wasnt overlooked and she did face legal ramifications for it even if it was little. As far JR, puh leaze. He was never made to pay for any of his crimes, you know like almost killing numerous people. He got off easy every single time and was never punished so if Babe got a light sentence in regards to what she did to him, then good for her, bc he should have been sharing a jail cell right next to her.

Oh, GAWD, Cheap. Don't take it there... especially with a Jacob Lover. One too many agendas are going on in this thread as it is. If I have to hear mistydoll say how sweet and innocent and pure poor little JR is one more time, I'm going to ram somebody's head into a wall.

    • I find it hard to believe that they actually watched the same version of "Steel Magnolias" that I did. Are we sure they didn't watch the horrible re-make?

      Oh dear lord, did you have to remind me of that?!! That was definitely not Sally Field's finest hour, and Abby (Maura Tierney's character) was surely one of the most depressing characters ever written for tv or film. I'm not sure she cracked a smile even once during all her years on ER.  
    • I always thought Lois was such a unique character and considered her supporting her first run.  She was in a lot of different places on the canvas, but I don't think she had more focus than Brenda or Robin at her peak. With Ned basically out of the picture Lois doesn't quite have enough ties on the canvas to make her relevant and the show has done very little to give her new relationships and friendships.  She's stuck in the Q mansion most of the time. Oh, I agree it's a problem across the board for GH.  The only stable couples on the show are Brook Lynn/Chase and Portia/Curtis.  Unseen Olivia/Ned and Kevin/Laura are happily married I suppose.   Eventually I am sure Liz/Lucky and Dante/Lulu will get their romance, but is there any other couple that's even rootable?   I can't recall an era when Jason, Carly, and Sonny were all at such loose romantic ends at the same time.   Which is fine.  However no other romance besides Willow/Drew is being focused on.
    • https://www.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/shortland-street-fears-speculation-grows-about-shows-future-amid-industry-struggles/T2GECWXTI5AD3AMEV46YYYUE6E/ Still a big cloud over whether the show will get another year.
    • I had hoped they'd pair her with Michael Knight. They had a nice chemistry and he's been one of the better random castings on GH. When it comes to Gio, I found the scenes with Dante to be overdone. It's obvious they're trying to set up conflict for the reveal but I don't think that was needed. It actually made me less excited for the reveal and killed any interest I had in Dante and Gio forming a bond.
    • He also lost the woman he was going to marry, under very sudden circumstances. They are probably surprised Rena has wanted to stay. I think Lois works OK in her current capacity, if they allowed her to have more of a point of view, a bit more life of her own, and not just the reason for Gio's paternity being hidden. The character always felt very thin to me and on paper this dynamic with Tracy, Brook Lyn, Gio, visits from Gloria could be better for her than how overly centered she was on the canvas the first time around. But as of now she could be better used.  Somehow the show that was revived due to supercouples seems completely alien to romance. The older cast has this hardest but even with tiers who are younger or middle-aged, they've really dragged their feet about Liz and Lucky, they have contorted themselves in trying to figure out how to pair a man with Joss, Kai and Trina barely get focus...and others I struggle to remember. They also blew up Sasha/Cody so now I guess we're meant to be waiting to see if she finds true love with Jason? The show is so hesitant and when you are this hesitant it means you are incapable of writing romance.
    • I agree.  Rena doesn't seem to mind the lighter workload and seems happy though. Strangely, a lot of the veteran cast are without viable love interests-Sonny, Nina, Lois, Jason, Tracy, Alexis, Carly (Brennan doesn't count).  The show lacks serious interest in romance.
    • I just can't wait until next week when we can go back to a full weeks worth of episodes. 3 episodes and a mid-week gap has been so difficult to deal with, especially in light of how good the show is.
    • I always hoped they'd change Parker's paternity back to Phillip.  I guess it doesn't matter since Chloe is off the show currently.  I don't recall Holly or Maggie mentioning Parker, so it's not they are close to him. 
    • I’ve reached the summer of 1998.  Until now, my impression has been that the show has steadily improved since the great quality dip of 1994, reaching as high as 8/10 in 1997. Sure, I could complain about a few things in 1997 (Claudia got wasted after her initial storyline; Thorne’s feelings for Taylor were a bit too sudden; the storyline where Sheila lived with James and Maggie while pregnant got rather boring; Mike periodically revisiting Sheila despite being on the run from authorities), but overall it was a very strong year.  I liked the Thorne/Taylor/Ridge triangle, the mystery plot about who shot Grant, the sham wedding to trap Sheila, Stephanie/Eric/Lauren, and Clarke manipulating his way back to working at Forrester. I even liked the Greenland storyline with Eric/Lauren/Rush, although I had expected to hate it. Maybe 1996 tops 1997 in raw soapy excitement (especially as Sheila got a chance to interact with a larger canvas of characters), but certain problems with overall storyline cohesion puts it somewhat below 1997 for me. Unfortunately, early 1998 has turned out to be a bit of a speedbump, perhaps on par with 1995 levels of quality: - Maggie’s character really got trashed after James left her to be with Sheila, and the early 1998 storylines where she imprisoned Sheila in the house from Psycho, or installed those wires and mikes and such in her house to make her think she’s going crazy, were total GARBAGE. So much so that the latter storyline (and Maggie with it) pretty much disappeared into a limbo.  - I have mixed feelings about the twins plotline with Lauren. No way did Rush survive being shot with a crossbow through the chest, and the romance between Lauren and Rush’s good twin brother Johnny was rather dry to me. I did however enjoy the camp aspect of Rush taking his brother’s place to be with Lauren, and Eric rescuing her. But it doesn’t appear like Bell cared too much about the Johnny/Lauren romance beyond the twin storyline gimmick, and it too disappeared in an unsatisfactory manner (come on, why not hire Johnny’s actor for just 5 more episodes for an arc where he realizes Lauren is not over Eric, or JUST SOMETHING?) - Clarke wormed his way back to FC in late 1997, which had exciting storytelling potential, but then he disappeared almost entirely. Sad to see my favorite character wasted in this manner. Does he get anything interesting to do between now and the Morgan saga of 2000-2001? - The Thomas saga was entertaining in 1997, but it got stretched out too much, and made some of early 1998 tiresome, with Ridge having to decide YET AGAIN which woman he wants to be with. On the plus side, I like the plotline of Thorne being neighbors with Macy and Grant, and we’ve finally been introduced to the SORASed Rick/Amber/CJ crowd. The Stephanie/James/Sheila triangle is also starting, and it makes me excited (I remember seeing some if it in my childhood). I know Sheila, Grant, and James are all leaving soon, which I honestly kind of dread - between them and Clarke’s near-absence, it feels like herd is going to get culled too much in the near future. But I know there’s the familiar 1999-2002 to look forward to.
    • LOL - this is a perfect description, and that's what I loved about it! May be a bit campy, but it immediately caught my attention in a good way.  I'm not familiar with the Fishing Trip storyline, I'll have to look that up. I've noticed that about Josh, which has made him less attractive to me overall. He just yells a lot when he's not happy. Wow, Reva was married to HB!  LOL - "Always... eventually, and again"
