GH 50: Discussion for the Month of April - May 3, 2013

[R Sinclair]

Oh, dear... this is actually giving me fits of laughter watching you guys respond like this. No matter how much that nutcase person screams their one note aria, NONE of this crap can be blamed on Guza! The show's stories are failing. You bring people in with the "returns" and the "Nurses Ball" and then disappoint once that nostalgia wears off.

ETA: By the way, I'm 2 weeks behind on RuPaul's Drag Race... I'll be watching that tonight instead of this garbage. I love you all... but, um... yeah.

I'm not a fan of the relish story, but let's not act like the original Pickle Lila story was groundbreaking masterful storyline. It was such as silly, corny, cheesy, and dumb as this one.

On another note, if you guys are really hating GH so much, you should really write in or send feedback directly towards GH. They're getting sky high approval ratings from focus groups, viewer mail, and viewer feedback, so unless they get some hate their way, they're going to keep on with the same stuff because they assume the majority of the audience like it.

[rhinohide]

You have a link to the focus group results? And the mail in campaigns? I hope they keep this up since you seem to think this is what the audience want. I really hope they stay the course.

Meanwhile, those of us who don't do the campaign thing, will continue to share our thoughts here. As will the Cartini contingency.

[AdelaideCate007]

Oh make no mistake, this is not what I want. I think GH is ridiculous and that the stories are lame right now, but I'm just sharing how the rest of the viewing audience apparently feels.

[rhinohide]

Then more power to GH. If this is what viewers want it just confirms the worst stereotypes about soap viewers. But there is an audience for [!@#$%^&*]. I guess. But you kid yourself if you think calling the comment line or writing in to the studio will change anything.

[Soapsuds]

The show is just silly now....every story is chopped up...either ends too quickly or disappears....GH is just awful now.....today's episode was cringe worthy bad......New Lulu...oh dear...she sucked on GL and Y&R and now she is just as bad on GH. The only good part was seeing the eye candy shirtless doctor..or intern..whatever he is...lol

[frequentsoapfan]

You're making assumptions of how the audience feels. We really don't know.

I know I havent ben able to watch a full epi in weeks.

[Sapounopera]

If I hated GH that much I wouldn't bother watching and commenting on a daily months for endless months. I find DAYS unwatchable, but I have managed to move on in my life.

Milo has a great apartment and I like him as a character.

AJ and Michael are great together and loved them at Kelly's. However the relish madness has to stop at some point.

Ellie is paranoid.

However I enjoy watching on a daily basis. I am also trying to keep up with Y&R (most of it is very boring though) and B&B (the same two scenes every day?). Lets hope AMC and OLTL are fun and I can watch them as well. PP and ABC may have some legal problems but I guess I can stay away from the drama

[AdelaideCate007]

I'm not making assumptions. I don't presume to know how every viewer of GH feels and what they like. I'm just telling you what the feedback I saw and that was passed on to me said, and that was that an apparently large percent of the GH viewers enjoy this [!@#$%^&*] [!@#$%^&*].

I doubt it makes much of a difference at all. I guess I was just trying to state a pay to possibly change it since they apparently care so much about that stuff, but yes, you're right, it probably wouldn't make a difference at all sadly.

[Vee]

I think MR and DZ actually have very decent chemistry - even in this mess of a situation.

I LOLed at Luke calling Scott a garden gnome.

[R Sinclair]

That's cute! Good for you! People vent. It's what happens. Again, this asinine chastising people for expressing their dislikes about what they're viewing on a show they're invested in. Dear God!

[Antoyne]

I desperately need you to start commenting in the Drag Race thread.

[Antoyne]

I only saw like 3 episodes of Brenda's return but I'm assuming VM made enough money to cover rent for a bit, so that's nice.

[sivad40]

I went over to Youtube and TWOP to get a feel about how they thought about today's episode, and it was mostly positive. The YTers love Patrina and don't want Robin to return. In fact one of the YTers is uploading ever scene Patrick and Sabrina has done together. They hate Britt ane Dr. O, think Maxie is a good person for giving up her baby to her BFF, like the NuLu, the integrated Connie, Quiz, and the relish storyline. The TWOPpers snarked on Milo and LuWho possibly being the GH version of Ford and Jessica if Milo has sex with LuWho. They realize the rumored mob lady will just wind up sleeping with Sonny like most women that tried to take Sonny down. Other than that, they more or less enjoyed the epsiode.

This is your future, those of you (like me) who are over 30. These are the idiots who will be taking care of us.

I hope I die before retirement, rather than trust my future to any idiot who actually is entertained my "Purina."
