That's what's pissing me off the most about this whole thing...forget Kate(yes being respectful today) and Olivia: they are obviously building to something with Skye/Jax/Carly, (whether you like it or hate it) Sonny/Claire, and hell, even Jason/Spinelli. When Brenda comes back, all of these men and God knows whoelse will be pushed aside or sacked for the princess. They haven't even mentioned her name on a daily basis on the SHOW to get viewers geared up for her return, there are no promos on ABC promoting her return. Brenda returning is sure to come out of left field, at least for me. Have they even mentioned Brenda's name since Michael brought it up earlier in the summer?

They better hope she's worth all this.

I don't even really know why they need to go back to Brenda/Sonny. That ship sailed a long time ago. Almost 15 years ago.

They should remember what happened to their ratings when they threw all their plots up in the air to showcase Franco.

That's one of the problems with GH stories, they have some good moments but the pacing of the stories is getting worse and worse, along with the fallout. You can't just have Kristina go boom in a car explosion and then a week or two later she's with a study buddy, uninjured.

Thats what they did last time. They had just spent 2002 building Jax and Skye up as a couple, with a nice romantic courtship leading up to their wedding. When Guza came back, he had Sonny and Carly reunite and remarry. Once Brenda came back, Jax tossed Skye to the side and Brenda kept insinuating herself in Carly's marriage. The romance that Jason had going on with Elizabeth was dropped rather abruptly as he married Brenda and the show spent her time back on the show revolving around the 3 men and the hell with the stories that they were doing with them prior to her return. I already see the writing on the wall which is why Im trying not to get sucked in with Jax and Skye again bc I got burned last time

I forgot to mention this. Its beyond stupid. If Franco is visiting people he targeted before, why arent ANY of these people under surveillance? Its beyond ridiculous how he is walking up to people undisguised in broad daylight and public. The cops really are idiots. Jason too

thats bc she isnt Michael's aunt, at least not really. She has no prior relationship with the boy. When she was on the show before, Michael was a kid and was nto allowed to have contact with the Quartermaines. He doesnt know her and she didnt really know him. Im not finding things odd here and she has a stronger relationship as Jax's ex wife, than some aunt thats back in town.

Loved, loved, and floved Brook Lynn's performance at Coleman's. I typically can't stand when soap stars sing. She's redeemed daytime's reputation for putting the worst warblers around on air. Clearly the writers never expected much from BL (or AL) to have cast the character as Carly's henchwoman. Ridiculous. She's 1- A Quartermaine, and 2 - quite capable of being this generation's Tracy Q... It was perfect for Tracy to remind her that there's nothing BL could do to surpass Tracy's own youthful indiscretions and misdeeds. Pitch perfect all the way around.

Why not revive ELQ as a major player and let Tracy and BL run the place? Wouldn't it be just desserts for Carly to bring BL to town and after reuniting with Jax have to worry about losing their entire fortune to the Quartermaine women. Edward worried so much about his MALE heirs, how sweet would it be to have him owe it all to the women he ignored while he groomed his sons and grandsons? There's Skye, once again torn between family loyalty and the man he loves, even if he's with Carly. Would she join Jax in defending his conglomerate, and become involved in a love triangle to boot?

Mya and Monica could be the face of the Qs in the hospital, again.

Shucks! I forgot. There would be no mob connection, therefore, no storyline for the Qs as a prominent family once again! :mad:

thanks for proving my point bc nothing will change if she continues to be written as such. She can go back to being a character in her own right if they dont have her flip personality and motivation to suit whatever story needs to be told.

    • When I was a kid, I would watch DOOL with my mom. I remember Denise as Susan so well. And later, of course, on GH. How sad to hear she has passed. RIP.
    • I have to dig that scene up on YT. I'm glad they gave them some kind of happy ending, even if it was really late. Interesting! I remember Justin and Sarah being involved, but I either forgot or never caught their backstory. The girl with money and social position of course turns out to be Jackie. He sort of did to Sarah what Vanessa did to his brother! I do remember Justin started out as not the greatest guy. Kind of a horn dog. It's only when Ross comes on that he becomes the "good" brother. I only have some vague memories of Ben and Hope, mostly of when they were in a positive relationship. He certainly changed over time. "Chill" would be the way I would describe Ben (along with "handsome but kind of a yawn") for most of his time on GL, so hearing he once had a violent temper is very surprising.
    • Yes. That's called good writing.
    • interesting idea.  That makes sense, as MVJ seems to have set up each character development (traits) for future plot developments.
    • I really enjoyed today's episode. It showcased a lot of the other cast and I saw hints of storyline potential (Smitty & Bill). Martin definitely has some anger issues and I recall him being overly scared about protecting his family and having all the doors locked, coming out of one of his "dreams". There's obviously a lot going on there and I can't wait to find out more. I'm thinking June is going to be more than just the issue story of the week. I think she just might be related to one or more of our main characters. As for Tomas, yes, Alex Alegria is not the strongest actor, but he's pretty to look at and he emotes something. I'm just not sure what that something is yet.
    • No. Absolutely No. I don't know who this is... since it's just some random Twitter quote... But NO. The only parallel between OG Caroline's leukemia and Liam's tumor... is that they are both having cancer. That's it. Other than that... I see absolutely no similarities.  Caroline hid her sickness almost till the last moment. She was also giving the viewers signs that she is not well for days if not weeks before the diagnosis. It was not like Liam... falling down and hitting his head on a table and bam he has a tumor. Caroline's storyline broke our hearts, because of her attempt to live out the rest of her days with dignity and grace. It was written slowly and with care. What we are seeing right now with Liam is the complete opposite. It's begging the viewers for empathy and cheap tears. It's so in your face and trashy... I can't believe they are using cancer for something like this. Bradley Bell should never do terminal stuff again in his stories. It's borderline offensive to people who actually have lost relatives to cancer. To me it is.
    • I was thinking that June could be Kat's mother and Eva is Nicole and Ted's.
    • You won't even miss her because Nola will be dominating the show till Raven comes back. Literally... there will be no boring second. Nola is just starting. You won't believe what will follow. Haha. And then as soon as that storyline is finishing up, Raven is back in top form.
