GH: October 2012 Discussion Thread

Then you better get your FF finger ready because Todd and Carly are happening! Sorry if Todd can't remain that emotionally crippled diviant you've become so accustomed to. Time to move this guy forward or send him back to that hick...um Southern Belle in Llanview. Todd has been a holding pattern for years, and the writers were comfortable because he was funny. Time for him to be man who makes sacrifices and ENJOYS sex. The dog crawling after Blair after a transgression needs to be gone, and Ron is making that happen. Blair so wonderful? Is she still in the alley in her underwear having sex on top of trash cans? Let's move on. She took back the man who put her child on the black market? Yeah ok. Having these OLTL characters on GH were a gift, and the sense of entitlement of over! Roger and LW are far more interesting than another go around of TnB. Roger is having the time of his life, and you can tell! Still luv yahwub.png

Oh, don't worry, I'll simply skip the fuckery and watch McBam scenes online and ask Todd fans to send me the bat signal on when to tune in again. They're good on keeping me up-to-date and will let me know when Todd eventually wakes up from his delusion and realizes that he needs to fight harder and do better to win his woman, Blair, back - as he always does.

As for Todd enjoying sex? Ha! The only one that he's ever enjoyed it with was with his soulmate, my Blair (for good reason wink.png), as his leading that gang rape years ago has rendered him incapable of having a regular sexual relationship with anyone other than her (since she is the only woman that has been able to capture his mind, body, and soul). If Ron bothered to stay true to Todd Manning's character, I wouldn't be subjected to having him act out of character in order to prop that canker sore of a character that they should've scrubbed from this show years ago.

And I know you're not casting judgement on my Blair when the alternative that is my Todd getting with the same chick that took back the dude that shot her in the head while she was giving birth because "he's the father of her kids". Let's not go down that road because things will definitely take an ugly turn in this thread. icon_talk2hand.gif

I'll give you this, though, LW is definitely having fun onscreen with RoHo because this is the first time in years that she's played opposite an actor that actually shows up in scenes instead of those two duds that she's been saddled with. Although I can't stand the idea of my Todd being infected by the Slagbeast, I don't blame her one bit for being happy for acting opposite RoHo instead of having to carry the lazy MB and the Godawful roided goiter.

Love you back, though... :D

No, I have my own, VH. But thanks for offering. :)

If they had to pair Todd with a popular female GH character, I'd have much rather it'd have been with Sam.

Frack no, just no no no, did I say no? LOL.

Sam is another reason this show has gone to crap and Todd hasn't done anything that warrants the punishment of being paired with Sam, Roger is too vibrant to be stuck with one expression Monaco this is the look she always has on her face, no matter the scene mellow.png

LMAO! There's nothing original about her. If we want to be correct here, she was originally Asian

And yet, her Southern successor still preceded this roughshod imitation by a few years.

im fine with either one as I think RH has chem with both but ultimately he and Sam would be too dysfunctional and can't work bc of what he did to her via her baby. It would be hard to get behind them in a real romantic pairing but I did wish they were still interacting and had somewhat of a relationship. Carly seems to be the one that holds the least baggage and obstacles. I can see her moving past the baby switch lie easier than Sam

Considering that Cartini is the same regime that tried to sell a rapemance between Frodd and Marty, I hardly think that a Sam and Todd romance would be out of the realm of possibility. The fact that Sam isn't a vile character makes it easier for me to see those two together.

As someone who engaged in the original Todd wars over on Mediadomain (to my everlasting shame) it kind of breaks my heart to see people still fighting over this character like he's worth something.

He wasn't worth it then and he's even less so now.

and look how well that went. Did they ever become a real couple once the lies we're exposed? No bc they were one big colossal fail. LOL that really wasn't the best example for you to bring up

Where's a mob shootout montage when you need one? Because Todd needs to go NOW.

Hey, you get no argument from me about Sam being a boring character for most of her run. Still, her presence (much like her mother's) has never been offended me, so I wouldn't be opposed to seeing her with my Todd (though I'm fully aware that it'd be a long shot).

In addition, she is the character that has benefitted the most from the new regime, as they're writing her to be more than just the roided goiter's appendage. While I can't say that I'll ever be a devoted fan (as my heart will always belong to Livvie Locke), I'm finding myself becoming mildly interested in what happens to her next - something that I never did before this year.

The only reason why they hadn't worked out was because Ron was insistent on McBain being the victor, as has been the case for every woman that a man has rivaled with him over. So, yep, my example still stands.

You two hate me, don't you? The first time I've ever had use for Todd and you want him gone :( :( :(

and not much once done with John and Marty once they did get together. She could have been shuffled back to Todd when it was clear there was no investment in trying to write for them as a couple but that didn't happen bc they were too offensive to work. RC moved past the rapemence and it was for the best rather than trying to go back once some time has past and trying to make it work

No offense, CH, but for me, it's a case of "too little, too late." I don't care how smoking hot Tarly are in the eyes of some. Todd has caused too much damage to too many people, and (IMO) has never really paid for his misdeeds or shown a sufficient amount of remorse. Plus, he just bugs, ya know? He bugged when he had TSJ's face, and he bugs now. He bugged on ONE LIFE TO LIVE, and he bugs now.

I think it has less to do with him caring about offensiveness, since he had "Todd" yuk it up over raping Marty and Jessica being raped, and more about Ron being obsessed with Tea and writing years of story in a failed attempt to make her the show's star.

Obviously he's over his Tea love as he unnecessarily brought her over to GH just to kill her baby.
