Members Vizion Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Uh-oh, General Hospital is prepping another triple-hanky storyline: EW obtained this exclusive first look of the ABC soap’s next big arc that commences March 17 and continues through the month (and beyond!). The son of Lucky and Elizabeth is involved in a tragic accident and is immediately rushed to the hospital. Will he live? Will he die? Will we die waiting to find out whether he lives or dies? And apparently, there’s more: Someone may be to blame. Like we said, uh-oh. http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/03/10/general-hospital-sneak-peek-look-both-ways-jake/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 So Lucky finally remembered he had a child? I guess just in time for more JJ weepy Emmy bait. I don't know if this will be "triple-hanky" or not because it's so crass and manipulative and they have done this over and over again. It's just too rushed. You can have months and months of focus on something that ultimately led to absolutely nothing (Brenda/Dante), but this is over in a second.

Members Vizion Posted March 10, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Not to mention, and I realize that this is just a promo, but everyone but JJ looks flat or uninspired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 It's hard to tell from the clip, but it all just is so empty. For one thing, they are selling this like a movie promo, almost gleefully, in their Very Special Hushed tones. It seems like they're getting off on it, as Guza seemed to when Michael was shot in the head. The other problem is this is all so played out. JJ doing his teary-eyed, cracking-voice routine that he does every other day, looking so much like a homeless man that he takes you out of the scene. Jason doing his usual constipated long-suffering stare. And why is Luke in any of this when he hates kids and said that Jake was not any real child to Lucky? He has no business being in the story. He wouldn't care whether Jake lived or died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MichaelGL Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hmmm....GH is getting abnormally depressing these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Which is funny, since Guza trashed Labine's GH. The show wants to be depressing but the stories are too shallow and have been done too many times in recent years. All this with Jason has been recycled again and again and Jake has barely been seen until lately. One or two days of weeping and pained stares aren't the same as decent buildup.

Members Kylie Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Wait, three parents...you mean it's not ALL about Jason? I'm still a bit miffed that after everything GH put the fans through during the SOS, they're going to off the child that started all that nonsense. That said, the promo almost sounds like they're talking about their Christmas Eve story reading at GH, the way they talk, and what not. Dunno. I wasn't moved. Probably won't be. The whole thing just doesn't sit right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 God, Liz is such a bad mother. Just letting her kid walk outside the door UNSUPERVISED and get hit by a fcking car. If this character stays on the canvas, can she have a full hysterectomy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Three parents? Really? Jason gets to mourn the child he abandoned? Even the promo is a bad BJ's heart ripoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
