GH: Discussion for the Month of March


Recommended Posts

Liz is a bitch! She totally used the memory of Jake to manipulate and try to steal Jason from Sam. Grrrrrrr! You just know someone out there is saying that

IA. It was so overt and they could have been subtle with one line. As for your second line, no. Blair still has 2 kids at home to raise. I really dont think she needs to come and sit around for a trial

:lol: at no one really discussing Noah being back. He can go back wherever he was at. LOL

Sam and Eeyore are so boring. Why is he wasting time in PC talking to Sam and offering to drive her home when he could be with Nat and Liam in Llanview? What a forced joke

Wow. The Jason/Liz scenes were amazing!

Liz talk! Really enjoyed the Liz and Jason scenes. I guess she's only been on in bits and pieces lately, but I feel like the writing for her has been much better (not that this would be hard to do by any means).

Out of these OLTL imports, KDP was the only one I cared about, so it's too bad that her days are already done. To me at least.

Fair enough, but if I went out of town for a trial about the death, less than a month back, of my "true love" and daughter, you can bet SOMEONE from my family or even a friend would insist on coming. Especially if I was still 21 or so (I guess Starr's meant to be 22 now as that's what Cole's grave said, though I know ages are confusing--has she even ever had a drink?)

What? I skipped the opening--they didn't use the Night Shift theme?

Kelly Monaco is a firecracker and I just wish they translated some of that earthy humor and fire onscreen -- they are starting to write her with more... interest, it seems. Guza and Garin Wolf really had no use for her other than Jason's echo, and you could tell her character had been foisted upon them by Frons.

Also: the chemistry between her and ME was unmistakably there (and I never saw Port Charles, so...), especially when he showed her a photo of Liam. I like McNostril on GH -- couldn't stand him on OLTL.

Starr -- eh. Still not sold on her inclusion in the show. I guess because Starr/KA annoyed me somewhat on OLTL. She (and her chin) were just so earnest! I'm not one of those viewers who loved the teens over there or all that High School Musical stuff.

Anna is such an awesome character and she fits in seamlessly with the current fabric of the show. Is she staying or is this just a flying visit à la Tristan Rogers? Because she needs to stay. And watching Ian Buchanan on Days... sigh. I would love to see Anna & Duke reunited.

I see Cujo is still the same smug ho. dry.png

I've been liking most of the acting a lot more lately on this show. It's startling because I am starting to like performances from people that I have disliked for years now. Chad Durell gave his best work opposite KDP, Steve Burton seems to be finally feeling something after being in a coma for the better part of seven years, KeMo is emoting something rather then drowsing threw a scene, I've liked most of the vets work (Finola, Tony G) this go around, Jason Thompson's been great, etc. It makes me think that they must have hired a new director or something since Ron's been in house.

Agreed. I felt the same eerily subdued sensual quality I always got from them when they were on PC. It feels very raw and tangible, I'm not sure if it was because Kelly lapsed into playing a form of Livvie threw Sam or if Easton simply brings out her more vulnerable and sensual qualities as an actress. Either way I definitely felt some form of connection and attraction between the two of them. Even when Sam was supposed to be mad at him for going after her husband it still felt quite intimate. It was eerily reminiscent of the Stephen Clay storyline on PC back in 2002 nearly 10 years ago.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
