GH50: December 2013 Discussion

[DRW50]

I actually thought Castillo was OK early on as nerdy and awkward. It was everything around her that I disliked. That Nurse's Ball makeover (the most gorgeous friend of a friend of a Real Housewife/extra from an Adam Ant video ever!!!) took all that naturalness away and it's never come back.

Several pages too late but The Elm Street Pier! I too miss that set!

The current docks set reminds me of the 80's one that was seedy.

No dock set saw as much bad stuff as the Days one. But the good folks of Salem kept wandering down there.

I miss Laura's house, the Webber/Scorpio house, the Brownstone, the Q gatehouse. And I have never liked The Metro Court. Carly rich and comfortable ruins the character. Even on Knots Landing, Abby was always hungry. Nothing was ever enough for her. Carly should be written like that, in the ELQ storyline.

Is Ellie's big news that she's pregnant? Please, no.

She was ok as GH's version of Ugly Betty, but the character was forever ruined when she became the most generic ingenue of all times. And the fact that Felix is her number one fan hasn't helped her a lot.

[Vee]

Yeah, the Nurses Ball ruined her.

The guy playing Carlos is infinitely more attractive IRL when they aren't styling him like this.

I wish this was Franco's "cooling off" period, then later he can go all Ted Bundy on everyone

[dragonflies]

My poor Patrick thrown under the bus for this twit

[cassadine1991]

Did Patrick really ask Sabrina to go home with him??? WTF

[alexisfan07]

He isn't

[DRW50]

Oh good. He can go back to the junkpile.

I have to laugh when I see people say gosh, maybe he and Julian are not actually in the mob, that they're actually "good", unlike that mean old Sonny. Just because someone wants to have sex with him, or with Julian, doesn't make them wonderful people.

PRAISE JESUS!

All I gotta say Ron Carlivati put on lady gags just dance u are the freaking icon of daytime lol. Biggest ratings in six years. That's huge for GH. Ron and frank should get massive renewels for this. Look at the chews ratings that's huge. The chew is a hot show

[cassadine1991]

And your point is??

[JONNYSBRO]

My point is look at those huge ratings. GH was a cancelled done deal now in buzz and publicity it's a roaring blaze of fire. Fantastic ratings and SOD named GH the best soap. Ron Carlivayi and frank will get a huge payout and big money. GH not only isn't in danger, abc is shocked and amazed by its performance. So all the griping here won't make the fact GH is a hot one.

[dragonflies]

Goooooo Robin, she's bringing in the viewers
