GH: Discussion for the Month of August

[remos]

What bothers me with the whole liz/lucky things is this assumption that the fans "need" to see them together. No growth is allowed either of them. They have both had successful pairings outside of the other (Liason/Niz, LuSam/Luxie) but those were killed because the always had to return to LL2, and unfortunately Lush will probably meet the same fate. I was hoping Siobhan would be Lucky's "Tracy" - meaning the one who finally broke the curse of endlessly being caught up in the same pairing - but that's going south in a hurry. I don't want to see two character being "teenagers only older", I want to see actual movement. All this drug story is doing is taking away the one claim GV had as a story, it's not giving us any new territory.

Bringing JJ back was a huge mistake IMO. What was once an incredibly powerful teenage actor is now a one note performer. It's disappointing.

DISAGREED! I really love how GH has told stories about Bensonhurst. I like the Bensonhurst gals minus Miranda Priestly lite (AKA Connie).

Olivia rocks!

Speaking of Bensonhurst, and even though I love Olivia, I'll never stop LMAO at Claudia calling her a "Bensonhurst slag heap" LOL!!

[Antoyne]

I despise all the Bensonhurst talks and always have...I get it, you're giving us character history...Sonny has enough.

[Cheap21]

Really? That makes me regret not watching the 2 years Claudia was on. Would have loved to have seen her bitching out Brooklyn Brenda

[Mr. Vixen]

I don't get how anyone could like Olivia. She's not even a character. She serves no purpose. Honestly, she's just there to sound off on other peoples relationships. There is absolutely no purpose to her.

[AllMyDaysatGH]

LOL at Claudia, "Bitch, you better get out of my house" I loved Claudia vs. Olivia! Olivia didn't have much to say here though ;-P I wasn't much of a fan of hers at this time.

[Cheap21]

She only had two purposes. One was to drop off Sonny's kid onto the canvas and the second was to hook up with him. She acieved the first goal and they droped the ball on a Sonny/Olivia relationship. There's nothng to her anymore. She should have been axxed a long time ago

Thanks! Claudia Im gonna have to start calling Olivia a slag heap from now on...lol

[Mr. Vixen]

I'm seriously scratching my head at this. I liked Claudia vs. Olivia too, but honestly you WEREN'T a fan of Olivia then, but you are now? A brief period of 2009 was the ONLY time she ever had anything to do....And still it wasn't much. At least she had a popular romance. Now what's she got? I'm so confused by this.

Stupid [!@#$%^&*] came to town for a wedding and never left. The whole story never made any sense. Why would Sonny bring someone to town that Kate didn't even like?

[AllMyDaysatGH]

I loved Olivia when she came to PC but when the show put her with Johnny Skidmarks I did not like her to much. That's why I was team Claudia, I wanted Olivia away from Johnny! I preferred him with Lulu!

I edited my post to also say LOL at Claudia saying to Olivia "Bitch, you better get out of my house" LOL! LOVE Claudia so much.

[Mr. Vixen]

I liked Johnny/Lulu, too. But I'm not open at all for a redux. JMB can no longer move any part of her face, and she's slipped into monotone delivery once more. I honestly can't stand her and wish they'd recast. How that ever became a 2 time emmy winner is beyond me. I even find myself enjoying Dante when he's not with Lulu.

[Antoyne]

LOL "this is not Bensonhurst, back in the day. This is Port Charles, circa now."

[Cheap21]

I preferred the potential of Johnny with Brook. I was really looking forward to seeing Brook steal him from her mother figure. That would have hurt Olivia's ego!

[AllMyDaysatGH]

I'll always have a little hope for my Johnny/Lulu! But Dante/Lulu seem more popular so It's most likely not happenin' ;-(

We'll have to disagree about the emmy because IMO JMB did true WORK for them, especially the first one! She was amazing in the courtroom scenes!

[Mr. Vixen]

Man I LOVED them together, and I wanted to see that happen as well. Maybe it would have been enough to send the c*nt running back to Bensontrash.

She was good in the courtroom scenes but that emmy BELONGED to Kirsten Storms that year. Maxie's eulogy was the most heartbreaking scene I've seen on GH in I don't know how long. Yes, it was sad that the character of Felicia had come to that low point, but Kirsten OWNED those scenes and was outright ROBBED of the emmy.

[Cheap21]

Honestly the last time I found Lulu intersting was when she was with Logan. Luke Spencer's daughter wtih Scott Baldwin's son = gold. I dont know why or how they could mess that up. They hated how they trasheed him and threw her with Johnny. Logan could have had potential outside of Lulu if they wanted to move her on
