WTF, the AMC episodes JUST aired 2 weeks ago. They couldnt at least pull something earlier in the year? I think GH is the only one I might check out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted December 16, 2010 Members Share Posted December 16, 2010 I've just accepted the fact that GH is the only soap they're ever willing to go back farther than a year for ever. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted December 16, 2010 Members Share Posted December 16, 2010 Unless it's Rylee on AMC you're right. Probably cause Guza's been writing for so long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted December 16, 2010 Members Share Posted December 16, 2010 The MetroCourt hostage story was the last Guza stunt that I unabashedly enjoyed so I think that they are good episodes to repeat though I can't imagine anyone watching during the holidays.

Members DRW50 Posted December 16, 2010 Members Share Posted December 16, 2010 The OLTL stuff I didn't even care about the first time. Didn't see AMC. It's easy for GH as they seem to repeat their stories over and over anyway. I didn't realize that Alan's last days were spent being a foil to Shrewlu.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted December 16, 2010 Members Share Posted December 16, 2010 why do the GH ones keep saying "AJs briefcase"...AJ was long dead by then...Wasn't it Alcazar's briefcase...? Definitely watching the GH ones. Will be glad to see Alan and Monica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted December 16, 2010 Members Share Posted December 16, 2010 And just looked it up...Bobbie is in that first episode. So I'm a happy camper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 I most likely won't be watching the repeats, since I barely watch the first-runs... but I agree. The MetroCourt Crisis was incredible! To this day, I remember Sam ripping off "Mr. Craig's" mask and that being the end of the episode... and I let out a literal, loud, "Oh, my God!" And then, had to go to work. And when the building exploded, all I could think of was "Wow! This was a GREAT story!" I'm disappointed Guza hasn't delivered since. About it ALL... I agree! To me, Lulu died during that crisis along with Alan. Who the HELL tells a gunman to kill an older man first because he's already lived his life?

Members DRW50 Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 Geez that's awful. She should say it about Dante now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted December 17, 2010 Members Share Posted December 17, 2010 Really? Jeez, I must have been checked out completely to miss that. Not that Maria and Edmund are characters who keep running to the screen, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 22, 2010 Members Share Posted December 22, 2010 Well the last AMC one was at least 5 years old (and despite them claiming it was Rylee centric, it wasn't overtly so), but yeah, what an utter wasted opportunity. I really wonder if these episodes that just aired months even weeks back seriously would get larger ratings than if they aired true classic episodes?
