OMG....thanks Ryan, you taught me something today because I always have problems with my grammar like that. And this is coming from a GH watcher that has been faithful pretty much since Scotty caught Laura's bouquet.

How about them ratings?

LOL....

The hypocrisy in this thread is hilarious.

Bottom line is that shawn, I and others wouldn't bash Days or any other soap if other people didn't blindly bash GH WITHOUT bashing the other soaps.

Again I ask what makes GH so special? Why exactly were you setting it apart from the other soaps that have done WORSE!

Anyways CONGRATS to GH! Well deserved!

Your comment doesn't make any sense to me. You only bash DAYS (or any other soap) because people "blindly" bash GH without bashing other soaps?

So let me try to understand this. If we "bash" GH, we should also "bash" others, because.......

?? I'm a little lost.

There isn't one soap on SON that isn't bashed for it's writing, characters, etc. No soap is immune from criticism at SON. The only thing is, there are people who have gotten tired of bitching about the other soaps. I used to bitch all of the time about GL & ATWT. I don't now. Why? Because I stopped watching them. It's kind of unfair to bash a soap that I don't watch. Same thing with Y&R and now AMC.

GH deserves to be in the basement. GH viewers deserve to have new writers who know how to properly tell a story instead of the lazy writing we've been getting for the past 5 years. But I wouldn't know anything about that since I've been watching this Godforsaken show for 30years though, right? Whatever.....

Um, I watch GH about everyday, mainly because I have nothing else to watch at that time on SoapNet and I don't find anything special about it. If you find something special about it then fine, that doesn't mean everyone else has to.

Um, some of us like the GH of yesteryear, you know the one that told stories around vets, socially-conscious stories, that was an ensemble show, and one where the mob wasn't the major focus, but one of many layers that made the show entertaining. GH lacks all of that currently, so I don't find it "special."

Also shawn, try reading the quote from Claire Labine in my sig. If there's any era of GH I'd rank as my favorite, it would be the era where she was the Head Writer. You still had the mob, but it wasn't the only focus of the show. Everything she talks about is missing on GH, the show has NO HEART anymore.

    • I agree. For now. I am sure in a year's time...a new family (or old) will start to appear on the show. 
    • There's some irony in Philip being forgiven, because it forces everyone to admit that Victor was wrong to change his will.  Everyone, eventually including Xander, (I presume), seems to think it was wrong for Victor to divide his estate in Xander's favor.  I appreciated Stephanie forgiving Philip, because she's got no skin in that game.  But, Belle's line about Philip missing Xander because he misses Bo did not ring true.  I think Philip would be sad if Bo dies, but I think he's more concerned currently about Xander. I am enjoying this EJ mystery so much that I am hereby taking a vow not to read spoilers.  I am also vowing — for the last time — to stop harping on this, but: the concept of a “sepsis treatment” remains absurd. Hospitals prevent sepsis through vigilant infection control; once sepsis sets in, it causes multiple organ failures. Treatment involves supporting each failing organ individually. The notion that a single medication could magically reverse organ failure is medically laughable. However, I like the contrast of Kim going through cancer, which is incurable in their universe.  Kayla's comment on the health of both of her siblings was both heartbreaking and an interesting twist.  MBE is also totally underrated.  She is carrying the weight of so many stories.   And, I like the use of Kayla as an audience surrogate.  She's arguably the most "real" person in Salem. Kayla isn't psychic, she wasn't SORASed, she's not a billionaire, and she doesn't have a bionic eye.  So, I enjoy that we get her perspective of the nuttiness that surrounds her. However, I don't get what gives her the authority to turn down EJ's offer.  I understand that they need a hospital figurehead to show us scenes of the competition to buy the hospital.  But, unless the entire administration has been let go, the Chief of Staff wouldn't make those choices.
    • But why worry about something that might not happen? Right now, most things revolve around the Duprees. We have no idea if or how long that will continue. For now, it's working.
    • The Duprees not having any staff is a bugbear for me. They've included the background staff at the Country Club but no one at the Dupree home. Even just an extra bringing in a tray of food/drinks or responding to a request from Anita would suffice.
    • Shut up, Dante and Lois.  I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago. Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either.  Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss. And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.
    • Note to makeup - Smitty’s eyebrows, bad clamshell look.

    • Okay I can buy that when Brook Lynn was a teen.  Now she knows the child is a boy one would think she'd be slightly suspicious.  Then again, Gio looks nothing like either of them so maybe not lol.
    • I've been behind & just got caught up & the last 3 days were amazing!
