Members SweetPea36 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 His zipper that wouldn't stay up? ETA: GV's version of Lucky. JJ's version doesn't look like he would know how to have sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 Lucky having sex with Maxie who's had a crush on him since she was a little girl and who was giving him free drugs is him losing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SweetPea36 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 It was on GH. That's what led to his downfall. Well, that and those pesky pills that kept jumping into his hand and the fact that he was an a**hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SweetPea36 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 There was also Maxie, who played Lucky like a fiddle with her pillow pregnancy. He was such a chump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 Lucky and AJ were the show's punching bags over the last ten or so years. You could say Jax was towards the end of his character arc as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 Lucky was the show's punching bag? Really cuz they sure did a good job of making everyone else look bad in comparison when JJ returned. Was he the punching bag under JY? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SweetPea36 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 JY's Lucky was used as an antagonist. He was nobody's punching bag. Well, except for Helena maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DynamiteKiddo Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 I think that he was clearly initially imagined as a short-term character. Though Brody remained a whipping boy through his one life to live on OLTL, I don't think Cartini hated him at all. I think RC loved him and that's why I was SO surprised that he Eli Clarke'd him (though, this was during/after batshit crazy Marty). What differentiated Brody from GH's Lucky and AJ was that RC constantly provided him with a sympathetic POV and it was clear that he really wanted the audience to be invested in Brody's outcome. Though Rex, John, and eventually Ford were preferred by TPTB, I think Brody was a game piece they really valued until he full force got thrown under the Ford bus and Jollie train (let's face it, this joke couple decimated more people than a bus could accommodate). And Brody got a shot at happily ever after with Jess, something Bob Guza would've never mofo'n ever let happen with (GV's) Lucky or AJ. I loved Brody and despite this post, I do agree and was so upset at how many times he got sucker punched, I just don't think RC wrote him as the reject that Guza did regarding Lucky and AJ.

Members DRW50 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 I think the only reason Brody stayed as long as he did was because of the absolute worthlessness of the show's pets. Bree Williamson could not carry a story - she had just tried, with Tess' return, and it wrecked the show. Brody propped her up until they could find her someone they saw as worthy (like Ford). Brody and Natalie also had to move story for the fish lipped McBain who could do nothing but squint and pout and put his hands on his hips.

Members Cheap21 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 His time with Maxie was hardly him winning. It nearly destroyed his life Yes he was and they did a good job at making him looking bad in comparison to everyone else throughout GV's run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 But he did it on his own. Liz didn't drive him to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dawn9476 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 Jacob Young had left the show before Frons and Guza really got their hooks into the show and started the destruction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 Whoa, where did I even mention Liz in my post and say she drove him to do anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 6, 2012 Members Share Posted May 6, 2012 Oh the Liz part isn't directed to you. It's directed to the original poster who has blamed Liz for it in the past. The drug stuff and Maxie is all on Lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
