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

That catfight was so lame. Not even worth giffing. Seriously, the Carly vs Connie fight from last year was better

Oh wow, that's some sick sh-t. Stavros doesn't want Laura...he wants Lulu

Marcy Rylan isn't onNo, he was young

Of course. But thanks to that ridic "Endgame" storyline and JFP's insane need to give RKK a job.....

[Cheap21]

He wasn't older looking in the 80s. When RKK took the role over, he looked like what one would have expected him to look when he was cryogenically preserved. The casting was consistent with that and as ludicious as the story was, it wouldn't have fit had he aged in real time

[Khan]

Nah, I still think he looked older.

[R Sinclair]

They could've at least been a little less callous. He's an international spy, for God's sake. He's surely got a few enemies out there. Would it be so hard to have a "mystery" figure come up on him, render him unconscious and toss him into the back of a van, leaving it open ended? They'd get Jack off the show, Frisco off the canvas and the fans of both actor and character aren't feeling shat upon after largely lackluster "return." For God's sake, they have Dr. Obrecht and her Faison connection right there in the same hotel. Instead, they're having her boogie in her bathrobe, offering Britt warm milk while Frisco runs away over being rejected.

[Cheap21]

RKK was about 36 when he took over the role. Stavros was in his early to mid 30s when we first saw him in 1983. The casting fitThey could have but I don't think that would have worked. They shouldn't have left things open ended with him. I think they were right in using him to give Felicia closure and ending this chapter instead of leaving is fate up in the air, especially since chances are, they aren't going to get back to it.

[R Sinclair]

Haven't you heard (over and over and over and over and over and over again)? Who needs directors when Frank Valentini's on the floor completely undermining the directors giving the actors "guidance?" That's how much he wants GH to succeed!

[Cheap21]

Im sorry but Nikolas and his story is DUMB as hell. If he felt Lulu was in danger from Stavros, why the heck didn't he just call Lulu, Luke, Laura, etc....? Why did he not do that at ANY point on his trip from Ireland to PC?

[alexisfan07]

Cheap, let me know if she's the tag. Maybe she had her airdate wrong due to the preemption.

[Cheap21]

Im guessing Dante is going to open up the door and see her at the end

[ChitHappens]

ROTF! Love it!

You are so wrong for that avi!

[Cheap21]

she is wrong for her acting!

[R Sinclair]

Felicia's irrelevant. She's made her choice and that's her business. I never thought for a minute she would chose Frisco over Mac, so that's not where I'm coming from. I'm talking about Maxie. If Frisco was grabbed, at least the audience would know he didn't willingly choose to leave his daughter (AGAIN!) in such a precarious state with the truth about her baby hanging over her head. Nevertheless, character driven writing isn't what this team is good at. At all.

[alexisfan07]

Was Helena's role in this mess explained?

[Cheap21]

Helena's not dead, at least its implied she's not....yet

yes but to be honest, its contrived nonsense that I was only half paying attention to
