I still can't get over Brad revealing a secret that does not involve him. Maxie and Spixie have reconciled themselves with Lante having that kid, so what business of it is Brad's? If he wants to do the right thing, there's always the reveal that he didn't donate any swimmers to Britta's cause or their dirty dealings in regards to his promotion. But a secret of this magnitude being revealed by a newbie who's only doing it to get into Felix's pants? I know we want movement and all, but it still has to make sense, and THIS DOES NOT! How many others way could this have been done? I'm thinking about 35!

Geez!

Morgan and Ava? They are great! That had it working since day one, and they are pretty much the best couple on the show for me at the moment. I am sick of these soap couples that get paired without the benefit of a story (like Britt and Nik for example who have nothing to talk about except that they live together). Morgan and Ava got started with something to work with and it helps them greatly. Plus she is a little sleazy, he is a little hot, and they would make a great porn.

I laugh at the thought of them trying to make Brad and Felix happen

I saw Sabrina's ex and he looks so old. Was she dating him in high school?

Ava's interested in Silas? Why? What were those secrets that they were alluding too?

Can Luke really be killed off for real?

How long has Laura been gone? (I know Chit will respond with a not long enough....lol)

Sonny as a characters seems so lost. It's time to retire him. He's in Luke territory of being irrelevant on a canvas which doesn't suit him anymore.

This I always disagree with when it comes to GH logic. "It isn't your secret" "it was none of your business". I disagree. Just because I am not my neighbor doesn't mean I can't mention something when I see them being wronged.

i think her point is that this is not a selfless act . Revealing this truth doesn't prove that Brad is a good person as she had no personal gain. Remember that this is his motive for doing so and it's a selfish one with no repercussion to himself. Chit mentioned several secrets that Brad had about himself and any of them would be more appropriate to confess to , to show that he can change. Putting his career and reputation on the line with those would have been more appropriate to prove his point. As it stands, it looks like he just threw some strangers under the bus to get some d--k

I think Chit's point is there's no real drama in Brad revealing this. It just makes him, and the reveal, a plot point.

There's no real drama in this reveal anyway because most of the people involved are so stupid, boring, and/or unlikeable, and the whole story is so contrived, IMO.

But that doesn't really matter because Brad is not one of the good guys, He doesn't have to do right for the right reasons the way people like Liz and Molly do, he is allowed to manipulate the situation and if it does good it does good.

A newbie should not be revealing this secret, especially when you look at his motives. To get into the pants of another newbie. There is no drama here at all.

So many are happy that this is no longer the CarSaSon Hour that they will accept anything in its place - this is one of those "anythings"!

Additionally, Brad's point is that he can show Felix he is capable of doing the right thing. This is NOT the right thing. Expose himself for the rat that he is and give that lab to Ellie, the person who truly deserves it.

There are quite a few reasons this just does not work!

The other thing I don't like about this story is it just feels like such melodrama for the sake of melodrama, not because it works for the characters or feels organic. I feel like I am watching a TV show, and watching some bad soap acting. I don't enjoy that. I think stories work best when you can believe in them.

    • Kimberly McCullough shadowed at GH and completed an ABC directing program, but I don’t believe she was ever credited as director or given an episode of her own to do. One of the reasons why she got work so quickly was because she had multi-cam knowledge from years on soaps.
    • Do not apologize for this. I was thinking just today it's bringing me fond memories of when I was a teen of Angie and Jessie. Jenny and Greg, Philip and Beth. And although they were teens, Steve and Betsy.  I like a good teen story. 
    • Yeah Suzanne mentions Y&R here  (no spoilers in the article) https://www.tvinsider.com/1227485/days-of-our-lives-suzanne-rogers-anniversary-maggie-storylines-mickey-victor/
    • I wonder if she may be transitioning to behind the scenes.  How many GH actors have also directed while acting on the show?  
    • Despite my wish that Ric get revenge on Alexis and the gang, I really enjoyed their scenes today. RH and NLG have honestly never lost their chemistry with one another. Seems like Carly genuinely let herself give into Brennan today and regret it. Also just cause I smoked earlier it, it randomly hit me for the first time in over a decade. They had Michael murder Claudia played by the actress that played all of the most important early Michael stories. Kinda twisted lol
    • -- I love a good build, and the show has made me look forward to Winterfest. But some things seem so forced.  -- For example, the Vernon/Sharon meetups. GMAB. It's so obvious what this is and they're playing it too hard for too long.  I think one purpose is to make Leslie look like a fool, but it's hard to take. Is the tour over for Sharon? Does she sit in the hotel room all day long waiting for Vernon? Is he paying her bills? It's dumb.  -- Leslie is an awful human. I don't think she gives a rat's ass about Peaches. She cares more about Eva's sex life.  -- Izaiah and Eva have nice chemistry, but their conversation seemed forced to me. Didn't sound like first date dialogue and was too on the nose.  -- Shanice was great in taking down Leslie. I'm so glad the writing didn't have Leslie land the biggest smackdown. Dr. Wilkes was also great.  -- Again, Leslie is spending like she's worth a bajillion dollars. This has to be written for laughs.  -- I've done a complete turnaround on June. I now think she's a great addition.  -- Martin and Smitty are so concerned that Tyrell learn about Banneker that they call in a guy who started work there this week?

        -- Tyrell is so much more mature than Samantha. I hate the way she treats him and talks about him in front of others.  She really sat there and asked Jessica why she's even with Tyrell. Samantha is pathetic.    Screenshot time: -- If I can get Fish & Fries at Orphey Gene's for $5, why is a glass of juice $4 ? -- That Mr & Mr sign at Martin and Smitty's is beyond lame and tacky.   
    • So do I. Jack actually treats her like an equal partner. And he’s done far less evil things Nikki has just to ignore including to his own kids than Victor any day.
    • This 11/17 episode was extremely lazy and boring. That Adam and Chelsea opening scene was so cringe and out of character for both.  Billy Flynn is being wasted and I was only interested in Claire and Holden.    Every character feels the same with no actual personality.   
    • Ugh...right? At least if Chris Bernau had been able to continue in the role, it would've been intriguing to watch Alan manipulate Reva.
    • Yes, it was. Dinah had started to soften after Henry's heart attack in March. After Paige Turco took over the role, the attitude is turned way, way down. The thing about Vanessa was, she could be very territorial. If Dinah had gone to Lillian (who had befriended Dinah before she knew Vanessa was her mother), that would've stung a bit, but Van probably would've understood. But Dinah getting advice from Ross' new girlfriend would not have sat well with her, the same way Van later bristles anytime Nadine tries to stake some kind of role in Bill's life. @DeeVee  I know it's been brought up before, but I hadn't really connected Long breaking up Ross/Van to the fact that she'd neither created that backstory or been responsible for giving them a love child.  I wonder what she would've done had she been there when Jordan left, and had to break Billy/Van up.
