GH: Discussion for the Month of May

[EricMontreal22]

WHat was Todd's quip to Carly about some witness Blair would believe? I was confused--not that I was really paying full attention, the show is such a disjointed mess already under RC.

[Cheap21]

A doctor declared him temporarily insane when he killed Victor due to post traumatic stress disorder. That was the expert witness which got him his not guilty verdict. He was telling Carly, that Blair didnt buy it kinda like how Tea doesnt. I wouldnt be surprised if he paid him off.

[Antoyne]

What the hell was the point of the random hand held camera shots with Johnny/Carly at the metro court..

[Cheap21]

It's annoying and reminds me of when AMC switched up their cameras in 2006

[ChitHappens]

It was awful! As if the cameras were down LW's blouse and another one in Johnny's shirt pocket. So cheap and ridiculous!

Can someone tell why Carly, the owner of Metro Court, supposedly a big grand city hotel, is working the front desk checking in guests? I used to work at one such hotel on the front desk...and let me assure you that we didn't even have our front desk MANAGER checking in guests, let alone anyone from upstairs! It's like the Metro Court is like the Strathford Inn on NEWHART.

Aside from Annie Ilonzeh, I haven't seen decent hair on that show since Megan Ward (i.e.: the actual Kate Howard) was let go.

From the fabulous Megan Ward to this chick...what a disgrace....SMDH

[VirginiaHamilton]

I thought they killed her character when they recast her as Kristen Storms and completely retooled the character for the worse. Pairing her with Jar Jar Binks simply shat on her corpse - something that I fear will decimate whatever progress Jen Lilley made in being a better actress than her predecessor.

I agree 110%. I've said this before, but I've never understood the criticisms about every actress that played the Slagbeast. As far as I'm concerned, they all played her as she was meant to be -- GH's resident canker sore.

Lord, please don't remind me...

Damnit I don't want to love John and Sam but I do

I even almost like Todd and Carly's friendship

[VirginiaHamilton]

Not only would I had much rather watch that, but I'd have rather seen Brenda and Kate go toe to toe (over Jax and/or Sonny and/or Crimson business). At least I'd have seen two worthy women that I loved throwing down instead of the skank that they shoehorned into Brenda's hemisphere.

[DRW50]

Given how much time has been devoted to McBain prop duty and making Sam his chattel, I'm surprised there isn't more chemistry.

[Cyberologist]

This is one thing that has turned me off with many writers the need to leech characters together instead of taking it easy e.g. Michael & Starr, Luke & Anna....I loathe the acting in this Konnie storyline for the most part its extremely campy...& its gotten old for me it was ok at first but its been months of this...

I agree with both of you!

I think the Poo Poopie do Betty Boop persona that Maxie developed w/Spinelli is what did it for me (the ditzie blond)....although I can't recall much of the Maxie character from the first actress I remember enough to know I didn't like KS rendition of her esp once she was shackeled to Spinelli. I liked KS' chemistry Jason's Matt...The low for me came when she banged Franco for Crimson then acted rather immature afterwards (starstruck) ....in the limo ..her Oh golly gee attitude......was a bit much. I thought the drug storyline with Lucky was rather interesting

a lot of decent acting went down wtih GV & KS for me...I'll never forget when she shook the bag of pills at the door & led Lucky to da bed... I was like DayyUmm gone with yo bad self girl...that was a helluva scene.

Also agree re: Megan Ward I was a huge fan of her Kate Howard...I tried but can't get with this version of Konnie by this actress

[dragonflies]

I don't really see anyone propping him and there's more chem than she (n)ever had with Burton.

[DRW50]

I think she and Burton had decent chemistry early on, but now he just sort of is there. I don't see it with Easton. As happened for most of their PC run, they just look like two coma patients slowly trying to get back to reality.

Anna exists in large part to prop him, because Easton is too bored to make any effort himself.

[VirginiaHamilton]

The fact that I am interested in what happens to her next for the first time in her entire run on this show pretty much supports this fact.
