I have no shame and guilt at all, and I am not offended in the slightest by the series. I simply find it very shallow, not the least bit interesting, and actually rather stupid. Perhaps you have issues with the fact that not everyone agrees with your opinion, a sure sign of insecurity.

Yes, GCB DOES show a very real side of organized religion, but sadly it does so in the most obvious, juvenile manner. Sorry, but I am man enough to state what I feel, rather than simply regurgitate the popular opinion. Funny how agreeing with every other poster is fine, but say one thing to go against the "majority" opinion, and people resort to insults and name calling.

You carry on, young man, and do not worry about me. I have been around far longer than you and have a much thicker skin.

My question is why are you even here if you don't like the program. there's like a million "discussion threads" about different topics on here. just go to one you like and type there. who needs someone who's going to waste their own time by focussing on something they obviously don't like. spurring negitive energy that nobody else needs to deal with. You've said what you came here to say. Don't like it...don't watch it. very simple.

I've realized that what I like most about this show is that it's not nearly as quirky as the ads would have you think it is (a definite plus) and there is some strong characterization for the women. You get the sense they're peeling off the layers. I hope that continues.

Good episode. Cricket and Blake are very interesting; I love the "arrangement" they have and that they're actually happy with one another. I don't believe we've seen a marriage like this one before on TV.

I'm not sure if this while Ripp/Bill thing makes sense. So, they think he may still be alive... so what? Unless he actually is, which I guess would be interesting. Anyway, Ripp should just be naked all the time.

Sharon shined today. What a great actress playing her!

Loved Amanda's arc about dealing with Bill's betrayal as well. Although it's getting tiring how her mother keeps pushing and then learning a lesson on each episode.

That i'll always agree with. I loved those first scenes in this episode.

I didn't like this episode as much as the others. I did like Cricket and Blake. I didn't know she had the money. It was nice to know that she chose to be with him because at first i thought she had settled into a life with him because of Amanda's treatment of her in high school. Now we know she had other men proposing to her and she chose to be with Blake.

I still really hope this gets picked up in September to be DH's replacement.

I've tried watching some of this, and while I appreciate the idea of a spoof with some heart, I wish it was not so clumsy. The situation with Blake and Cricket is interesting, and there are some moments where Cricket is hilarious and so true to life (like her refusal to get a donor who isn't in Texas). Then you have "funny" scenes like the two of them gasping and saying they need water and so on, which look like a bad student film. With Blake you can always see the actor hamming it up.

Wish we could be free of Leslie Bobby, but Amanda's the central character so we're stuck with her:( However, I say we break even and get Marisol Nichols the hell off the show.

Love Cricket! She's my favorite and Cheno as Carlene fascinates me from week to week.

    • Not just that but Im sure she will be blamed for trying to poison Laura with potassium. Remember when Nicole started to put the pieces together that someone may have tampered with her IV? She dropped it bc she got distracted with the party, but they did make a note to mention that Eva lied and sent a card and flowers there on Nicole's behalf. Im sure they will say that that was just a cover for her to be in Laura's room and come for her
    • Susan named her son after her father, Richard, and they called him Dickie, for short. David had bought Dickie a play swing but it was too big for him. One day, while David was babysitting, he put Dickie in the swing, took his eyes off of him for a few seconds and he fell out of the swing, hit his head and died. Susan was so devastated that she shot and killed David only like a few episodes later. 
    • Mickey Horton got her off, temporary insanity. Edit to add: If only Peacock would air this storyline.  Edit to add: David was supposed to be watching the child. Wasn't. Child fell out of swing, broke his neck. The show had the camera focus on that empty swing, just barely moving ...

        New interview!! I was like Penny, aka Janet, and said, "That's the end???"
    • You're really in for it, because those rants continue for 3 episodes. I was struck by how ho-hum those cliffhangers were. It was like the writers ran out of gas.
    • New Tomas pleaseeeeeeee!!

    • Thank you for the clarification, but Susan didn't name her child after David.  It was Julie who named her own son David.   And how/when was Susan's son killed?  And didn't Susan kill David Martin and stand trial for his murder?   The genius of Bill Bell -- truly.  
    • I truly wish we could see more of her work on DAYS. And more of her early stuff on GH, but at least we know that Corday’s DAYS vault is virtually complete, especially compared to GH. Lesley was a pivotal character. I think the scenes with the confrontation with Monica are so good because there is a lot of character in those lines and performances. Monica is ferocious, desperate. And Lesley is not a victim, she holds her own and calls Monica out, playing her own form of anger. Evenly matched. Soap confrontations have largely forgotten that both sides should be evenly matched, even if someone has wronged another. To me, that scene is easily in my soap hall of fame. They didn’t make enough of her return, which has always bothered me. I would have loved for her to end up vying for control of the hospital when Alan was incapacitated by drugs, helping him through that crisis and finding herself at odds with Monica again on a different level, not as romantic rivals. She had such a long career! Acting in radio shows as a little kid, through her GH spots as few years ago. That’s quite a ride. 
    • Damn I was hoping Lesley would be at Monica's memorial  Hoping GH gives Lesley an on screen memorial
