GH: Classic Thread

True.. Fair enough

Vee · January 23

In honor of the return of Patrick Mulcahey, I can't guarantee this essential scene is his but I feel fairly certain; nonetheless it is a stellar part of his GH tenure, as Luke tells Lucky about his rape of Laura. A masterwork of editing and sound design, and one of the best and most layered, dark pieces of work Tony Geary ever did as Luke clearly either relishes or fetishizes the worst moment in his life he has dreaded returning to. I've been looking for this scene in decent quality for years and this is good enough. It's timestamped; watch to the end.

The closure was announced in September which was where I got up to...I don't think I saw the actual closure but talk of it basically came about as a result of...well I'll let you find that out

Yeah at this point it's basically the Luke and Laura Ice Princess show and the Joe and Heather Diana Taylor murder mystery show. With only a sprinkling of Monica/Alan/Susan and a side dash of Hutch. And speaking of...

Oh gosh that went on for months!

I hated that Laura and Anna's long awaited - by me at least lol - first interaction was Laura seeing Anna kiss Luke.

Hey thanks for answering.

I just need like the last week of June and have to wait for my German source to sent me them over. I would watch them in English but don’t know if there was a preemption June 23rd and June 24th.. Coz I don’t really want to miss the anything right now. May and June are so strong again. Thank god

i don’t know how to quote single sentences. I‘m sorry about that. Yes it became the LnL + Ice Princess + Joe trying to nail Heather for Diana’s murder or find the Killer at all. It’s not bad. Like seriously. But I will tell my feelings about June when I’m completely done with it.

Thank u. In 1980 the disco was used more and the scenes were quite fitting. But in 81 u can tell disco died and those scenes felt so forced and cringe. Nothing like last year.

And yes.. Hutch‘s return was really a mess and went on for too long. His first run ended in the first week of January 81.. He returned in episode 4601 (April 81).. Like I said it wasn’t a bad idea to bring him back. But not for a storyline isolated from the rest of the cast and especially isolated from LnL. Like they didn’t visited him once lol If Hutch would’ve been involved in that Ice Princess Story and be a help to Luke then this would’ve been a successful return. But now? Hell nah. Can’t wait to see where this is going with him. I think Hutch should’ve been what Slick was at that time tbh. That would’ve made sense.

Luke/Anna is something I can tolerate over Luke/Felicia. But there was a scene where AG/Luke had a cold and he and FH/Anna still had to kiss. That gave me nightmares lol

Thank you @depboyI am loving these summaries from yesteryear! Also, Diana now has three men vying for her attention. Joel, Peter and Owen. I cant wait to see how Lesley and Joel up in a relationship.

And here we are, in the year of our Lord 2024, complaining that GH is Carly's world and the rest just live in it. The more things change, lol.

carolineg · January 23

To be fair, Carly has been like this 20 years longer than Diana was around and was killed off. We will never rid ourselves so easily of Carly lol.

Have many people seen this version of Cinderella? Someone posted this today and it just happened to appear on my timeline and thought it delightful and thought I would share with GH fans who possibly hadn’t seen it before.
