GH: Classic Thread

I've been watching GH storylines that aired before I started watching (started watching during Stone and Robin in 95) and I just finished Karen & Jagger's story. Anyone know why they seemed to tack on "Oh yeah Scott is your father!" at the last second? Karen left immediately after, Scott wasn't in town, and Karen never told Gail and Lee! It seemed like maybe him being her father had been the plan all along? Rhonda ran into him semi-frequently and they talked about having been in high school together, but if they didn't have time to actually tell the story while any of the people involved were still on the show I don't get why they dropped the info at all.

The entire plot point was...pointless, along with (years later), the show revealing Logan to be Scotty's son, only to kill him off. Why even create ties to legacy characters, and them severe them almost immediately? The only "child" of Scotty's whom I WANT them to get rid of, and never mention again, is Franco.

The particularly weird thing to me was that I don't recall Karen ever talking about or wondering about who her father was. Unlike Jenna on AW, which I watched recently, who talked constantly about who her father might be but they never did the story then she left!

I Remeber an interview where CL said that she had planned making Karen scottys daughter all along and decided to go ahead with it even though Kin left.

 

I do Remeber Scotty running into Rhonda and them mentioning they went to high school together.It was around the time Scotty was falling in love with Dominquie.

      And yeah, agreed that Dante having animosity towards Gio is very forced and contrived. And it also has me concerned that it means the reveal won't be happening anytime soon.
    • God, I love that woman. Another amazing interview!!
    • We can only guestimate based on other characters. Chelsea was said to be 23 in the first episodee and based on Marttin wanting to run for President in the next election, he's about 30/31. Eva and and Kat are somewhere between that  so Id say closer to 25 or 26
    • no argument here! and as she was singing, i kept wondering how many verses ‘amazing grace’ had. looked it up: 13 — 13! — and i think she must have sung  every one. 
    • Yasss, ANITA!!! GET HER!!!   Awww at Smitty calming Martin down.   'Oh, you're the one leaving.' That face like stone. Go 'head, Nicole.    Eva vs Kat...the gift that keeps giving.    
    • I have to admit I still have a nagging complaint about timelines - Why aren't we allowed to know how long Ted and Nicole have been married or how old Kat and Eva are? Or for that matter, when Anita last released an album? BTG is a new show with no SORAS or timewarping. MVJ and Guza are working from a fresh bible. There is no need to be so coy about ages and anniversaries, especially when most of the storylines are driven by past events.
    • It was an extremely rare interview even then - I was shocked when I read it (as mentioned I'd forgotten just how far in she went). You could see how hurt and annoyed she was. I'm surprised he thought she came up with the baby story herself. She and Charles Keating did a good job with the material but it was absolute hokum. Even if they loved Carl and Rachel (and clearly they did), I don't see them coming up with stuff that, frankly, read like Geocities fan fic. Malone was clearly hobbled by NBC and P&G, but re-using so many of his old stories and his soap bible instead of actually coming up with material suited to the characters or show did not help. It was also fascinating reading her comments about Rachel being in her, fighting back against the writing, and how she had to try to mediate. Reminds me of Marie Masters talking about how hard it was to say goodbye to Susan when she'd been with her for 40 years. That subject is always compelling, that duality. And it reminds me of Eddie Drueding's comments a year or two earlier about Rachel losing her drive. Clearly Victoria saw her the same way.
    • Seeing this trash get good ratings says nothing good about daytime audiences. It's embarrassing.
    • Cat does feel committed to being a goofball (the other term has been reconsidered in recent years).  I wonder, given her brother Aaron, if Cat was less attractive prior to the surgery?  Remember the 1973 movie The Girl Most Likely to?  My fanfic for the moment is Cat commenting on how people treat her differently now that she is gorgeous.  One assumes that pre-surgery, Cat never had two men fighting over her for a date.  So, it might be fun to see that side of the story.
    • It's probably one of the only conflicts the story will have, aside from Dante being upset with Lulu when the truth comes out. They really needed someone else who actually knows Gio is Dante and Brook Lyn's son and kept quiet.
