GH: September Discussion


Recommended Posts

I hate Spinelli with a passion and Spinelli with Maxie even more, but I know quite a few offline fans who love Spinelli. I don't think that it means that they are in the majority. The network must be convinced that he is majorly popular the way that the annoying character gets all that airtime.

True. I have never gotten it.

I tend to range from ambivalent to dislike with Liz. Nikolas was ruined in my eyes by his affair with Courtney because Emily could not getting over being raped quick enough. It does not help that TC looks perpetually bored.

Liz and the Pillsbury Dough Boy were so pathetic doing it, I could not find the energy care. It is only in the scenes with Lucky, do I get ticked off at Liz. The therapy session with Lucky was the worse. All she had to do is tell Lucky that she wanted to take a break. I hope Guza is true to form does not give Lucky much reaction to finding out about Liz and Nikolas. It looks like Lucky may be getting involved with the mob situation. Hopefully, that gets him some airtime away from Liz and Nikolas.

I wonder what happens next with Rebecca. She will be furious when she finds out the truth about Nikolas. I would not be surprised if she is pregnant. Better her than Liz for sure.

They really did replace Sam as the town slut and gave the role to Liz =\

I like TC & RH's chemistry, but I don't like the twist in the storyline when Liz agreed to marry Lucky after sleeping with Nikolas. I just want Liz/Jason.. Damn you Frons & your love affair with JaSPam!!!!!!

Chemistry never superceeds story for me at all and this story is horrid. I don't find either character the least bit rootable or sympathetic. They actually deserve each other. I hope this pairing crashes and burns. Rebecca the con artist and Ethan are coming out the most rootable characters in this and Lucky is being written again as the story buffoon. It's lame and tiring especially after seeing Liz in the same story with Jason for 2 years. And yeah I like Sam but hate Jasam. Liz is more than welcome to Jason.

The only time I have ever enjoyed Nikolas was early on with Genie. His stuff with Stephan Nichols and JOnathan Jackson I really enjoyed. TC sucks at romance but I did like Coltin Scott's version of Nikolas with Marissa Ramirez as Gia. But even that got crappy towards the end.

And death to Spixie. This pairing had turned one of my favorite characters Maxie into a character I detest also.

Repeats of TPIR are being shown opposite GH in my area so I flipped back and forth. I miss Bob, but Drew Carey is not that bad as a host or at least he is better than the last time I watched. This African American women in this red hat won a car. She was so happy. I could not stop laughing. Reminded me of how much I love watching TPIR.

Thank goodness Lucky did not sleep with Liz. We are spared a WTD story. Nikolas is so hypocritical. He inherited a "loyalty gene?" Clearly, it has been mutated into a traitorous Cassadine gene. Nikolas giving Ethan money to take Rebecca away is so stupid. All he has to do is break up with her to make her go away.

After that speech Dante gave Olivia about the mob, he turns around and hems and haws about giving Sonny up to Ronnie. Not a surprise. Gah. Someone please send Sonny to prison or kill him. I'll take either one.

I am really surprised there was no commentary on the last couple of days with the lead up to the wedding. John J York has been the star of the show practically as the wedding seemed to be all about Mac and his comedic seething. Then today that dream sequence hit every right note from every actor from Mac being a blithering idiot out of the home to Lulu's air kisses, to Jason telling Spin they have to go because there are people waiting to die. And then the comedy ended and Kisten Storms stepped up to deliver a multi faceted performance touching on Maxie's sad side, and then finally Bradford Anderson got his moment to shine at the altar. It was just good all around. GH should have brought back Kristina Wagner, Jackie Zeman and June Lockhart, but aside from that the entire episode was almost pitch perfect.

GH must have finally done it to me because my cynicism was at full blast. I was not impressed or moved, only ticked off that I had to watch one of the more annoying couples that I have ever had to endure getting all this attention. JJY has some nice comic timing and all I could think looking at him is what a waste. GH wastes everything. Whatever. Days is better.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
