GH: November 2012 Discussion Thread

Considering that that viewer explicitly stated that the roided goiter's departure was the reason for his/hers, I can't presume that there is another reason why he/she has stopped watching.

Like I said before, my side-eye is in regards to this viewer implying in that quote that the roided goiter was the only worthwhile thing to watch in the (supposed) 49 years that he/she has been watching the show. I can't speak for anyone else, but if I were watching the show for almost five decades (supposedly), that character or his two fellow airtime hoggers (along with their useless sycophants) leaving the canvas/getting killed off - as opposed to rich characters like Robert Scorpio, Alan Quartermaine, Laura Spencer, Audrey Hardy, etc. - would hardly qualify as a reason to quit watching this soap.

If Ron doesn't succeed in recreating the past glory of the Q business storylines, the very least that he can do is channel the first half of OLTL's BE-takeover storyline from 2008 (before everything went off the rails) - just so that I can see a Q stroll around in a white suit while flaunting their strong business pimp hand like my beloved Dorian did.

I'm really tired of Spinelli. I think he's even more pointless now that Jason is gone. I just can't take the teary eyes and ugh. Nothing against Bradford Anderson AT ALL but I feel like it's time to move on from Spinelli, or make him less ... IDK.

Love the fight over ELQ already. Tracy/Ned and Skye/AJ plotting against each other was great. Nice scenes between Anna and Felicia and Mac and Robert.

I'm also getting annoyed by Maxie. The fast-talking self-absorbtion thing needs to stop. It's time to mature the character. It's too bad the maturity that Jen Lilley's Maxie had was completely washed away by Storms return.

It was nice to see Blair again.

Yeah. I'd even welcome Kirsten back to Days at this point if it meant Jen Lilley's Maxie came back. I thought she was a great mix of the various Maxie's (the 'original' and Storms' version, which worked but seriously, it's time to grow the character up).

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.
