Members Cyberologist Posted March 21, 2011 Members Share Posted March 21, 2011 I like Liason only because I like how Becky/Steve act off each other and their love "story" but I agree that Jason Morgan lacks heat he doesn't smolder on the screen IMO he is a vanilla character so that doesn't help either. I'm not surprised St. Lucky told Elizabeth since Jason and Elizabeth aren't allowed on screen together (unless a third party is in the middle of them). Same ole' same ole' I believe Kelly Monaco is more than safe as long as Brian Frons is calling the shots she'll be like when Port Chuck was cancelled, one of the last ones standing no big deal just my opinion.

Members Cheap21 Posted March 21, 2011 Members Share Posted March 21, 2011 I really hope Sam didnt do this. When she said she was going to find ht eperson responsible., I thought I hope she doesnt learn it was her. Im glad Tracy mentioned Edward and said that they shouldnt tell him. I was thinking the same thing. Its for the best that he never learn that Jake was his great-grandson Luke's talking all this stuff about how painful it is to lose a child, yet with his experience with what that pain is like, he couldnt stay with Lucky at the hospital? Instead he's drinking and playing cards I wish they could have done something with Lulu but she never interacted with Jake as his aunt. Really the only Spencer that acknowledged that boy is Lucky. None of the Spencers seem to give a damn about his kids or treat them like family. Liked the Audrey mention. At least we know she's still around. Sucks we wont see her though Dang, they couldnt hold off with Carly? She finds out Josselyn has cancer and less than 30 minutes she's trooping around the hospital, trying to harvest organs. Im glad she at least had the decency not to ask Elizabeth. I was confused but Robin knows Jake was Jason's? How did she find out? Does Patrick know? I love how they could only muster up 1 scene. I tought for sure he'd get a montage of Jake but he barely interacted with him so there wasnt much material to work with I hated that Jason got to break the news to Lucky. THnak god they let Lucky tell Liz instead of Jason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted March 21, 2011 Members Share Posted March 21, 2011 I agree with those who say this whole thing has been rushed. It should have been a sweeps story and lasted a month. I think LW is actually doing a very good job with the crap (utter, horrible crap) she is being given. I think all of the actors are, but for once, LW is understated. I think it's true that Carly acted with as much grace as possible under the circumstances, but really, it was all kinds of wrong. I hope Jason gets to be angry at her, even though what she is asking for makes sense. Carly has a relationship with Steve Webber, so I think it would have been better if she had approached him to be an intermediary or maybe even gone to Lucky first. Going to Jason seemed like presuming on his friendship one more time at the worst possible moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted March 21, 2011 Members Share Posted March 21, 2011 Josslyn's story had my head spinning. She might have cancer 1 segment, has it by the next, will die in the 3rd, but actually won't die with a transfer in the 4th, and a donor is lined up by the 5th. Ok, if you say so, GH. I take your word for it, she's sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 I was invested as much as I could be... until that woman just happened to come upon the waiting room while Patrick was discussing organ donation with Liz and Lucky. The manufactured, "gee, whatta co-inky dink" plot point screamed at me, and took me out of any subsequent suspension of disbelief. But, I wasn't surprised... The writers shoehorn that character into every other storyline, so why should this be any different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 Right. That is how I feel every time I see him. He wept over Jason when he came back to the show. That seemed to be the high point of his emotions. They made Cameron and Jake an afterthought to JJLucky - now suddenly when it's Emmy bait time there is some emotion.

Members Juliajms Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 I wonder if this story would have been more powerful if the situation had been reversed. I suspect it might have been for me, even though I like Jax having a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 It would probably amount to Carly blaming the world for Josselyn's death. She'd probably blame Liz for wanting her baby dead to save Jake. She'd probably filled with rage and revenge and would make it her lifes mission to destroy the person that ran over her child. Of course we'd be told to feel sorry for Carly and support her bc her pain is justified Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 I have to agreed with the posters that say that this is going on too fast. I love the storyline. The acting is great (IMO) but, the pacing should be much slower. What we saw today should have played out in about a week. Not in a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 Well that's two different departments. If they don't write scenes with Lucky and Jake there is very little JJ can do about showing emotions. My problem with him is he was teary eyed when he discovered Siobhan was a double agent. It was as if he knew her 20 years and felt betrayed. It was ridiculous I thought. Today it was appropriate it is just his tears have been diluted by the daily dose of them. Still, the scene at the door was the best one of the whole show and I think shows why JJ is better than these other people. He was physically into the moment. Steve Burton has had that same expression he goes to for these type of things and never changes. BH was good, I think this type of material is stuff were she shines. I have to say the supporting cast all sucked. At the hospital you had Lulu, Dante, Sam and all three reacted to the news it was nothing out of the ordinary. Nik too I guess. Here his nephew or whatever Jake is has just died and he is being magnanimous in allowing Cameron to come home with him and Aiden? Should Cameron being allowed to come home with Lucky's brother and Aiden's father even need to be mentioned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 If the story had had better pacing then it might have been easier to care. If there had been months of scenes of Carly doing her Mean Girl routine and Jax worrying over Brenda and both taking Joss for granted, then slowly realizing how sick Joss is, scenes with her in the hospital, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 Carly makes me sick. She couldn't even muster up phony tears for Jason? Michael knew she was going to be a selfish cow before she even left, and I was glad he at least tried to call her on it. I actually found both Carly and Jax's reaction/response to chemotherapy to be rather disturbing. They both seemed like the only possible solution was a transplant, or they would do nothing. I know the whole thing was heavy handed anyway, but ugh, that didn't help. Lucky and Liz killed me. I was actually really happy that he was the one tell her and not Jason. And every time he said "my son" about Jake, I wanted to see Jason dying a little inside. Sam shouldn't have gone to help find the car, all she needs to do is go get BoP and let Jason get the hell on with it. It still amazes me that all evidence of the SOS is gone...and Liason's much touted and tortured (the fans anyway) kid is dead. After all of that, this was how it ended.

Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 BOP=Jason's box of pain SOS=Summer of Sin (AKA 2006 summer storylines on GH. All the sexual affairs. That's when Jake was conceived) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 Yes, his BoP (Box of Pain) is literally a box that he keeps all his pictures and crap in. He takes them out to mope at every now and then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
