One would think this episode would be riveting since they promo'ed the hell out of it.

Someone seriously needs to talk to JJ. His pasty skin and bright red lipstick makes him look like a vampire reject. And the gawd awful scruffy look and hair plugs is hard on the eyes. The dude looks a hot mess and the incessant crying is like an open faucet on steroids. I've come to realize that the dude doesn't know how NOT to cry while he's emoting. I can't stand to look at him anymore.

And seriously, I never comment on Bobby but she should have been there. Carly over Alexis? Bullshit.

Eppy was a big fat D. And considering Luke's drinking was never an issue before this insta plotpoint of hitting Jake, I actually agree with the guy that he's not an alcoholic - at least not in the sense they're making him out to be. And now he's going to overcompensate on drinking by proving he's not an alcoholic thereby making them all right. Sigh!

I must have missed it but when did Luke choose to spend Christmas drinking alone in the dark rather than spend time with them? And when was the guy always almost drunk every time he railed at Nicholas? All this revisionist history is just ridiculous. STFU bitches.

Yes. She showed up at the end. Luke broke free, downed an entire bottle of scotch and in a drunken rage he grabbed Sonny's gun and shot her point blank in the head. They had an immediate funeral and interment rendering her future absences unnecessary to bring up EVER AGAIN!!!

Last I heard, Bobbie was retconned out of existance. Carly isnt really a Spencer. Luke is only her "uncle" bc he was a close family friend of her biological mother Virginia and thats why he calls her Caroline, bc he knew her from when she was younger. Luke himself was an only child.

Yes, if we're judging this story on its verisimilitude, you're right. It makes no sense that a person's entire family (who is local) is at an alcoholic's intervention -- except his sole sibling. It wouldn't happen. But knowing that GH has no interest in Zeman or Bobbie and has been pretty much CLEAR on that stance, this is merely beating a dead horse. And since the dead horse isn't Carly...

    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse 
    • Tina Sloan tied Jerry VerDorn record when Guiding Light was cancelled - 26 years uninterrupted 
    • Very true...but TPTB all were desperate to get into prime time or films and couldn't, so they looked down on their own industry and tried to infuse themes that just didn't work in soaps. I would have thought after 9/11 the shows would have gone out of their way to provide that warmth and comfort that the audience wanted, and to bring old viewers back. Budget cuts? Just bring back kitchen sets, both ATWT and GL got rid of those besides one each..(the Snyders and the Bauers) You don't need super fancy sets if you have the writing. 
    • LMAO they didn't
