It's not that! The first time I saw the Mad World ending, I got the tingles because I guessed it was the JF foreshadowing. I wondered what to make of all the Jason mugshots, etc. However, it has been a good four or five now and the tingles are gone. Still, only one more week to go, I understand.

GH did a similar thing when Vanessa Marcil returned to the show. We saw the back of "her" head for MONTHS.

Isn't that kind of a tradition on GH? If I remember correctly, way back in the "old" days, when Laura returned the first time, I kept hearing Christopher's Cross' "Hey Laura," seeing a shadowy figure spying on Luke and Luke having this deja vu look on his face for weeks and weeks until it drove me nuts. I knew it was Laura but the show kept dragging it out.

So, I only saw one of the Mad World endings, but I loved it. I love the song and I like the singer. But more importantly, it was moody, spooky--outstanding foreshadowing! I could imagine watching various versions of that with great excitement.

I'm out of touch, LOL.

You are not out of touch. You watch GH once in awhile so you don't have any sense of what happens on the show as a whole. Yet you disagree and/or comment on the comments of people who do watch the show regularly. I don't get this at all.

:lol:

This show is General Hack-spittle but I gotta give it to TPTB -- GREAT cliffhanger.

This has just reminded me of something.

One Hollywood script reader once remarked how bad screenwriters usually aren't mentally, sexually, emotionally or in any other way retared. But their screenplays reveal a different side: especially male writers, who often conjure an elaborate patriarchal fantasy which they rule with "an iron pen!s" finally being able to do with womankind "what they've always wanted to do".

Might this be a case with Guza, too?

Lol, might? I'd say definitely. Even his biggest fans cannot deny it. Anybody who watched GH consistently in the last few years can see that Guza worships violence, male stereotypes and views women as either shrill harpies or swooning, hapless "heroines." CarlD spells it out really succinctly in the Claire Labine thread:

There was a lot of hype when Guza started because the action returned, lots of blood and death returning to the show. It's ironic, looking back, that the moment which got him such praise was the violent murder of a pregnant woman. If only we could have known.

The L in Luza stands for Lucky. Just as his stories were starting to devolve into his usual crap, he left to go make a turd out of Sunset Beach (which only really improved once Luza and Pratt were gone and the camp factor was turned up to 11). Richard Culliton took over at GH and got all the backlash for bad story ideas Guza likely came up with.

Then after Culliton was gone, the interim writers took over, and it was all about waiting for GH's savior Guza to return. And what do you know, his first stories involved...brutality against women, and mob violence. Our hero.

Most overrated and sickest headwriter around.

Lol, might?

What does that say about the female soap fans who love Sonny and Jason? Are they living out humiliation/domination fantasies in the safe medium of soaps? I don't know how any woman can view these two as romantic leading men, yet they have legions of fans.

I like the new cop Roy Williams.If they push him he could be a contract cast member and could introduce a new black family on GH or make him a long lost Quartermaine

Might?? I thought this was common knowledge for at least the last 5 years. It's really quite disturbing.

= "unsure." That's why I couldn't get a reading on the intention of your post. I just assumed that was your way of saying you didn't know if Guza was a violent, misogynistic hack of a writer or not.

Geez, now even Lady Jane has to take Carly's side on everything and tell Jax to beg forgiveness. Does anyone ever have to try to understand Jax's concerns?

By the time Kristina was slapped by her pig boyfriend, I was already numb. Is this to distinguish the emotional abuse most GH women take from the 'real' abuse/physical abuse? It's all awful. To add a dating abuse storyline feels like 'overkill' at this point.

Jax is getting for he deserves for marrying trailer trash.

I can't bring myself to care about Kristina's boyfriend physically abusing her. This story will end in a couple weeks and dropped two weeks later.

to think that Jax called original Carly like that

And Sonny will find out and probably kill him. And nobody will notice. And it will never be mentioned again. And Sonny will come off as a hero because he did it for his 'fambly'. When did this show become The Real Housewives of New Jersey? Sonny and Caroline would be a match made in heaven.
