GH: Discussion for the Month of January


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Add me to the keep Ned brigade. I can't stand Tracy but cheering her all the way to destroy that weasel AJ. ELQ is the only story that holds my real interest today.

I don't find Britt an evil stepmother carciature because they keep showing a softer side with her patients. I see more Britt has having some hidden agenda with Patrick.

Sabrina makes me FF. I don't get the hate here for her. She's a shallow twit not worth bothering to watch. I'll FF until Robin comes back to blow up her fantasies.

What happened to Anna & Duke & Robert? That story had potential and just fizzled. FH and IB lost whatever spark they had together. I find them so dull together. Bring back TR asap.

Connie is unbearable.KSU's OTT scene chewery never lets up so I'm Team Kristina. KILL THE crazy bitch asap.

I don't recognize Sonny anymore and I'm shocked to feel sad about that.

Can't believe Felix is from the same writer that gave us Kish.

Bring back Robin and give me my darned L&L reunion for the 50th!!!!

Britt?

Or Ellie?

IMO, both.

Britt is a Lisa clone with more compassion for her patients.

Ellie is soooooooooooooooo going psycho and messing with Maxie lab tests at some point to keep her apart from true wuv Spin. Ugh. That's sad because the actress is so talented and she's first newbie in a while worth a damn.

I don't think Sabrina is psycho. She needs a personality for that.

I swear, I thought I heard Ellie call Steve "Dr. Rubber". I nearly snorted my wine out my nose.

I honestly don't think Kristina is as bad as everyone says she is. She's certainly not great and there's moments of cringing every so often for me, but I've seen a LOT worse.

I didn't think Kristina was that bad today. Though the animal tackle at the end was like one of those bad telenovela catfights.

I don't get the hype about the Ellie actress. She's been grating with this hospital stuff.

Can they actually do something beyond mug at each other and talk about shares in this ELQ story?

Add me to the Keep Ned brigade too.

Both my 2 fave guys back on canvas=Happy me.

Yeah. I'm fed up with Sabrina/Patrick/Britt. Just dump their asses in the harbor and give their screen time to Kevin,Lucy, and Ned.

Surprisingly, one of the few characters working for me right now that has been an airhog in recent years. That I've never liked. Except what I saw of them in the 1990s. Is Sonny.

It's like. He's finally grown a heart again.

Sonny is awful right now. I've gone back and forth between liking him and hating him over the years and I may hate this version of Sonny the most. What heart? He's thinking with his dick and putting his current POA over his own daughter. He really let Kate stand there and bash his daughter while he stood their blinking.

There's no decent writing for Sonny. All he's doing is chasing Tessica Buch 2.0 around P.C. like a little pu$$y. To end the conversation with, "I thought we had something"?! !@#$%^&*] HER! Sonny should have called her a piece of garbage and kept it moving. As it stands, I'm estimating 30 days before she talks Sonny out of his panties! Now, his two key employees are at TFR acting like fools, further embarrassing this man. Putrid! Just putried! Would the real Sonny Conrinthos please stand up!!!!!!!!

AS for that wretched clown, what exactly we supposed to feel for her? Should we be laughing at her or feeling bad because she lost her son, the son she cared nothing for and wished dead? It's like 6 different script writers are penning this clown and not one of them has talked to the other.

Ellie - why must she go thru this? This young woman has so much promise and it wasted on Pukesie? I'm positively sick about this!

Sabrina - where's a serial killer targeting young geeks on the docks when you need him? Missed opp, for sure!

Emma - don't care about you at all!

Lante - I'd love for Dante to be away from that soul draining bitch! What a drip!

Michael to Tracy "words hurt, and you are very quotable"...I absolutely loved that line! Not sure how I feel about him partnering with AJ because I like the vanilla kid, but I'm not opposed to it. The fight for Q is missing a key element...actualy business dealings, but super happy Tracy has the claws out. The clown she has been playing for the last few years was an embarassment to JE!

Ron is actually taking steps to remind former Sonny fans such as myself why we liked him way back when with this mature approach that he's taking with the son that he'd stolen from AJ.

I'm not foolish enough to believe that he'll ever fully regain the sex appeal, heart, and charisma that he had back in the 90s, but the fact of the matter is that he's being written a lot better than he has since the turn of the century.

Methinks that Ron is shaping to redeem Sonny in the way that he'd attempted to redeem Luke last year by actually having him give a sh!t about his only daughter, Shrewlu. I don't know if the general viewing public will buy it and I doubt that it'll convince the die-hard Sonny haters to reconsider their loathing of him, but I applaud Ron for trying (as opposed to painting Sonny as the heartless and self-righteous bastard that was shoved down my throat over the last 10+ years).

    • 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.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • 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.
