I love how they said the wedding was "a week away" three weeks ago and it's only now happening. I mean, come on, it's not as if it built any tension, did it? Everybody was like "what's the rush?" and, apparently, the writers weren't in a rush. If they had planned it in advance, they would have known the wedding was in three weeks and could have said so (I know, I'm asking too much) :lol:

Does anyone else feel like Bobbie's little story is off? It feels like they had plans to introduce Lucas or something and Jackie had signed on for a certain amount of episodes but for some reason, the plans fell through and this mess is a hastily written rewrite to accommodate Jackie's contract.

No. I hadn't thought of Lucas once until you just mentioned him. Her return seems typical of Cartini's writing. How many other driveby messes has he done with vets since he came on board? I didn't think Bobbie was ever meant to have a story. She's a plot point

Not that nonsensical sh!t is new for Craptini, but Bobbie's presence is so out of place, it's ridiculous even for the wretched duo in charge of this show. If they were going to go this route, Bobbie should have been on canvas for more than 1/2 an eppy and not entertaining a terrorist and running errands for him? Wow! Just [!@#$%^&*] wow!

Lucas may have been dropped for now. There are too many characters, and the pacing/rotation/stalling is abysmal. If you are going to have this many characters, you have to be skilled to have them all make sense. Currently, GH does not make sense because you can tell, in many cases, the budget is keeping a key character off canvas. The quickest fix is to get rid of some of these characters, but if Crappy do that, they might have to delve into depth, character growth and plain ole good storytelling - they simply are not equipped! Please prove me wrong!!!!!

Bobbie's absolutely a plot point. It was clear the moment she was taken hostage. Bobbie's just going to stand there as he BARELY waves that little knife around? So stupid. The point of her return is ..... ? I'm glad to see her, but seriously?

I too wish they'd stop teasing us Luke dying. Ugh. Jerry probably breaks his fall and gets taken away or dies.

And that wedding ... OMG. Talk about heavy handed. So drawn out. And Robin still wasn't going to interrupt. Ugh. Thank god Emma saw her. I almost forgot that Emma was her daughter and not Sabrina's.

And honestly the only reaction I want to see is Mac's.

Oh and Sam and Silas are at this wedding because ..... ?

If Hearher can fall off a roof and survive, then I don't get the point of making it look like Luke is in danger under the same circumstances

Sam and Patrick are acquaintances. Not quite friends but he helped her when Danny was sick and got closer then. She also helped give him words of encouragement with moving on after a spouse dies as she went through this herself. Her invitation makes sense. Silas of course was her date

      I suspect we would have had a few withdrawals next year if Israel had won. I don't think many people would relish going to Jerusalem as things stand now. Not to mention it would have been a prime target for terrorist attacks.   
    • And they've given us plenty. Sets, outdoor scenes, music licensing, etc. And that was the point of me using DAYS... so. It's obvious the casino set is not intended for long-term use, hence why it's likely it wasn't as evolved as the other community sets, etc.

    • I just had thought of how to save the Perkins family. (Inspired by Rituals) -- What if Marisa Perkins was Augusta Lockridge's sister? Fictionally, they could've both been local girls, one married rich and one married poor. Originally, I was going to suggest that Marisa be Sophia's sister, but then I realized Joe and Kelly would've been first cousins.  Of course, it would've truly inspired Sophia was if Rosa Andrade sister, with Rosa and Santana moving in to help CC raise the kids once Sophia disappeared.  While this could've avoided both gross CC and Santana affairs, the times were not right for a story about intersectional inequity.
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJxW5DLJLId/ Another World is my forever favorite soap opera. But it's finale is almost universally hated by its fans. What this is, is an edit where I've deleted everything I didn't like!!!
    • The Perkins family had potential to be a nice alternative to the more dysfunctional Capwells and wackier Lockridges... but I think a few factors did in the family. 1) Recasting of Joe Perkins 2) Bad casting of the Perkins Patriarch, and the one note writing for that character. 3) Lack of antagonistic interaction between the Capwells/Lockridges and Perkins.  (There was no awkwardness between Jade/Ted.. or CC disapproving of his son being friends with that Perkins girl, etc). 4) Wasting of Jade thus wasting the potential of the actress (which was realized on Days of Our Lives).  She had more potential than Laken oddly enough. The only member of the Perkins family that had appeal and a somewhat thought out story arc was Amy.  
    • @GymnastGuyThanks for posting the three new Capitol 1985 episodes today. The two labeled March 12, and 13 are misidentified. The March 12 labeled one actually aired November 12 1985 which I figured out because Kenny Rogers' movie Wild Horses aired November 12th and it was announced over the "March 12" Cap credits. In addition, Craig Carlson is listed in the April credits but not the March. Craig left Capitol sometime after July 1985 before he rejoined OLTL in the credits by October 15, 1985; he was replaced on Cap by Radcliffe and Hamner. In these posted episodes Radcliffe/Hamner names appear in the March 85 episodes but not in the April.
