GH: November 2012 Discussion Thread

[SFK]

NOOO! Monica must ALWAYS be the owner of Q manse. That is one of the greatest long running "gags" of the show. Up there with Juanita Ramsey and "Carrr-LO-taaaaaa??"

[DRW50]

I always associate that line with the detestable Guza, because that was the only dialogue Alan and Monica were given (aside from talking about Jason's perfection and AJ being Satanic) for years and years.

I'm been reading quite a few suggestions from folks begging Cartini to bring Keesha back for AJ and, well, those poor souls must not know Cartini* at all to think that they'd:

a. bother to bring a non-stereotypical Black female character back on-canvas (especially since she'd been written off by showkiller Guza in such a half-assed way in the first place)

b. bother to depict her as nothing but a two-line-a-month token or a stereotypical mess

*while I'll be the first to remind folks that the Cartini regime (in general) GH is miles ahead of the fuckery that showkiller Guza's/bootleg Janet Wood's shat out for over a decade, I also have no problem reminding folks that Cartini is just as dreadful as the former regime when it comes to depicting Black characters/providing Black characters with substantial airtime (on OLTL). As much as I loved Keesha (and thought that she, Maya, and especially Justus, were done wrong by said former regime), I'd rather that she stay away rather than subject her to whatever Cartini would have in store for her.

I am one that wants Keesha back, but unfortunately you are probably right. I really don't want to see AJ paired up with one of Jason's whores (Sam and Liz), and I DAMN sure don't want him with Carly. I can't even believe some people want them as a legit couple after all the sh-t they did to each other (more of what Carly did to him). But he did handle Rachel horribly and the only time he put any effort into the Evanses was the two day reveal that Greg was Destiny's father.

I'll just imagine a Keesha return in my head

[VirginiaHamilton]

Oh, believe me, I'm with you on not wanting to see my AJ being saddled with one of the roided goiter's asslickers - mainly because I love Sam with McBain (although she needs to cease with the roided goiter rhapsodizing immediately or else I'll sadly have to hop off that train) and don't want AJ to be subjected to Liz's insistence on deifying his assh0le brother (a.k.a.: the very thing that ruined her character in the first place).

And don't even get me started on the horrendous idea that some delusional folks have on pairing AJ with the gangrene that infected this show, as the very thought makes my blood pressure rise to levels that one can't even begin to measure. The fact that Cartini still allow her rancid ass to exist on this show (and effectively ruining Johnny and threatening to ruin my Todd in the process) is the only reason why I refuse to give them complete kudos and why I am cautious as hell about how they plan on handling the return on the Real AJ Quartermaine.

So, you are, indeed, correct about Keesha being the only non-roided goiter-infected prospect* for him (and, yes, I did enjoy the little time that I did have of them as a couple before that muskrat trash came along to fvck things up for them). If it were any other regime (namely, Claire Labine/Wendy Riche = the best GH regime that I had the pleasure of experiencing), I'd be over that reunion like white on rice. However, I cannot ignore the dreadful history that Cartini has with Black soap characters (as sorry as I am to burst your bubble, as I truly wish that I could fully embrace the Keesha return in your head).

*while I'm well aware that Keesha dated Jason Q (back when I loved him and he was a part of a coupling that I enjoyed), that was before he became the roided goiter that I came to loathe with the fire of a million suns. As a matter of fact, his callously dumping Keesha was when I'd written his ass off in the first place.

If you're a JMB fan her Lifetime movie is premiering soon

[ChitHappens]

I hear Burton and Kanan are not blood related and them looking alike is just a coincidence.

BTW, can someone please explain to me exactly when Johnny/Kohnnie out- leveraged Todd?! So that I don't draw the conclusion that Todd being blackmailed by Konnie for a job is the worst piece of plot pointed convoluted chit, please help me to understand when Johnny got the upper hand and Todd no longer has anything damaging on him? This kind of "writing" is inexcusable!
