Members BadBoy93 Posted August 19, 2009 Members Share Posted August 19, 2009 just wondering how do the GL fans want one of the most gifted soaps ever go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EastMA2 Posted August 19, 2009 Members Share Posted August 19, 2009 I think the show should get the popular couples back together - Reva & Josh, Billy & Vanessa, Beth & Phillip, etc. As for the last scene, I think it should be a very positive scene with lots of characters around with the closing words being Ed Bauer reciting the "There is a destiny" speech. Simple, but true to the history of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadBoy93 Posted August 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 19, 2009 I loved that speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted August 20, 2009 Members Share Posted August 20, 2009 I agree they should reunite all the couples. Perhaps have Blake find out that Ross is alive too? I wonder what was GL's first ever scene? Even though it was on radio, if the scene was scripted to start off with Rev. Rutledge turning on a lamp and displaying it in his window, I think that should be GL's final scene, ending the same way it began some 70 years ago.

Members ian Posted August 20, 2009 Members Share Posted August 20, 2009 The last few minutes: Screen goes black, cut to the ORIGINAL production model. Kim Zimmer wakes up on her dressing room couch in 2004 and runs into the EP's office, you only see the back of an executive's chair KIM: Paul, I just had the worst dream that the EP was replaced with... chair spins around. Ellen Wheeler is sitting in the chair, smoking a cigar KIM: You. ELLEN: Yes. Me. *Evil laugh* KIM: What are you going to do to our show? ELLEN: I'm going to kill it. *evil laugh*, and crushes cigar under her foot. Fade to black. At least negating ALL of Wheeler's tenure so that GL can be returned to its former prestige again in death.

Members BadBoy93 Posted August 22, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 22, 2009 I would honestly laugh if that happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ian Posted August 24, 2009 Members Share Posted August 24, 2009 psh are you kidding me? I'm just waiting for the revelation that GL doesn't get a finale because Wheeler took the last of the budget and left the country. All we'll get is 2 weeks of Kim Zimmer on Let's Make a Deal and then on the 18th of September, her singing "Only Love will Save the World" at the end of it.

Members Dan Posted August 24, 2009 Members Share Posted August 24, 2009 In my head, I would want it to end with a big party at the lighthouse with Ed giving a toast incorporating the Reverend Ruthledge theme, then the final shot would be of the lighthouse, which fades out into a beautiful and poignant music montage. The final shot would be of Charita Bauer and the "Life itself is a miracle" speech to Josh. Then fade out to Jerry verDorn (Ross wouldn't even have to appear) and other important cast members over the years and we get to hear one final "Jerry speech."

Members EastMA2 Posted August 24, 2009 Members Share Posted August 24, 2009 I HOPE I'm wrong about this and the show actually does some flashbacks, but the general opinion is that there won't be any old GL flashbacks because of the way the show is shot now as opposed to back then. I'm not counting on flashbacks, but I sure do hope they mention former characters. I know that Nola mentions that Quint is on a dig but all accounts say that everything happens so fast that we'll be lucky if we get 1 more mention of Bert Bauer.

Members nhee Posted August 25, 2009 Members Share Posted August 25, 2009 At this point, quickly! Sorry but nothing really is happening on the show. It's all little 1 minute scenes over and over and over. Phillip wants to spend time with James, he's going to tell the family he's sick, blah, blah...been going on for months now, Same with Mallet/Marina Shane. Buzz, Frank, Cyrus. Reva talking to herself in that dam house. Just kill it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ian Posted August 25, 2009 Members Share Posted August 25, 2009 I'm pretty sure that if there are no flashbacks, an angry mob would run EW out of Peapack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted August 25, 2009 Members Share Posted August 25, 2009 I have been thinking a bomb that destroys the horrible sets. GL is dreck and has been for a long time. It is wrong that they are dragging out the ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
