Members R Sinclair Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 Next month, on St. Patrick's Day, we'll find out that Patrick Drake that guy Robin married, despite his first name, isn't really Irish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 This was semi-cute the first second third time you did it. Not so much now. Going after my avatar won't change the fact that Liz is a deplorable nurse, mother, woman and general human being. The fact that the show has torpedoed at least four different female characters and her long term love interest in order to make her half way viable and sympathetic over the past five plus years only continues to make my point.

Members BigBangFan Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 Liz is a flawed good girl? Lol. That's a good one. Maxie=Liz. Except Maxie is seen as the bad girl. While Liz [!@#$%^&*]'s rainbows. Liz would probably be more interesting if they dropped the whole "butter won't melt in her mouth" crap. Drop her harem of men. Drop the passive aggressive crap.

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 Okay, I'm the first to admit that I'll probably only watch the show live when the Mannings get there (but I have the GH book/watched several different YT clips from various different storylines), but I LOVED watching the Anna stuff from this week! Also, the Memphis hate here due to GH depresses me. I've gone there many times when on my way to see my family in Arkansas, and it's an AWESOME city! But I won't mention it again for the sake of this board's collective blood pressure . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 19, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 Sometimes though, I really do feel like some people forget that these are CHARACTERS on a TV SHOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 I used to feel like characters were trashed for Liz, but I don't think that's happened since around the GVLucky era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 I didn't like Johnny embarrassing himself at the pulmonary benefit or getting embarrassed out of the building by Sonny. I have a feeling Ron C doesn't like Johnny very much I know Robin is dying but do they have to make it Maxie's fault? So what's going on with Molly and TJ over at the party he planned at her house?! I was laughing when all those teens just came busting in I was expecting to see that continue in Friday's show but it didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 The only character that got trashed for Liz was Liz herself. Back around 2006 she was horrendous, emasculating her husband at will, practically cheating on him on a live TV show, tricking him into loving her boyfriend's child while begging her boyfriend to rip that same child away from the tricked husband. Then she cheated on Lucky with his own brother...she was a fickle unlikable person. These days she is back to normal, just a normally decent person who can't get out of her own way because she is a soap character and therefore dumb as rocks.

Members R Sinclair Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 I wasn't "going after" your goddamned avatar. Cute or not, my point is the "ideal flawed good girl" holds up. She makes bad decisions -- not out of malice but out of faulty logic. Then, she tries to get herself out of the messes she knows she's created, but makes it even worse. She's not going around town talking trash about people. She's not plotting and scheming ways to get back at people. She's not going out of her way to hurt people. Unlike Carly and Maxie, Liz isn't proud of her decisions that have hurt people. She's ashamed of them. She's taken personal inventory in the midst of her dramas plenty of times. She checks in with herself and knows that's not the woman she wants to be nor is it the life she wants to live. Is she needy? Yes. Is she manipulative? Absolutely. However, it's not out of a desire to inflict damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted February 19, 2012 Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 Unfortunately, it's all flooding back to me. Sam's past posing as Angela Monroe in a con, marrying and killing the father of the producer of that stupid show. Ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 19, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 This! +1. You really summed it up. Bravo! Yeah that storyline was a hot pile of [!@#$%^&*]. I liked the actress that played Amelia, but the character was a mess on so many levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 19, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 I didn't mind Sam as a celebrity, I just felt like the whole Angela Monroe thing was a bit contrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
