GH50: January 2014 Discussion - HAPPY NEW YEAR!

[dragonflies]

I'm starting to hope Bill blocks him

[slick jones]

Steve Hardy and Jessie Brewer simultaneously rolled over in their respective graves!

I get frank and ron's wink wink nod nod style of writing, but this is beyond ridiculous! First, they fired Monica from the hospital over bad press from her son? HELLO...she's a QUARTERMAINE! Their middle names are scandal. Relieving her of the COS job, maybe, but fired from the hospital...c'mon...?They need a vsit to the HR department. Sounds like Lee Baldwin should be suing the board on her behalf.

[cassadine1991]

I would love a visit from Lee.and yet I don't

[reallyhateskateonlost]

Alexis:" Out of all three completely unsuitable men that got me pregnant, I would have to say, you're not the worst."

I can't with this Heather nonsense. She has "boys" now.

Britta hoestly thought she was up for COS

[Cheap21]

Britt would have made more sense than her mother. Really the only qualified one of the nominees was Patrick.

[ChitHappens]

With the exception of Monica, NONE of the candidates made sense. It was ridiculous! Now watch the hospital get a lot of play now that it houses 5 Craptini created pets. O as COS is not funny, creative or soapy. Just another pet who gets to stay.

That whiny bitch, moRon, had the nerve to be especially sensitive yesterday because people didn't get his genius with this latest transgression against GH. ABC should have sold the rights to this show to the damn cartoon network!

[YRBB]

LOL at McShit and KoKi being awkward around each other. That’s too painful for anyone to watch. So the recent connection she and Franco built was only done so that KeKu has a reason to allow Franco to hide in her apartment. Meh.

Julian is such a nasty piece of [!@#$%^&*]: "I’ll speak real slow so you can understand." GTFO, Mob Bitch. And the truth about Lucas and him came out so quickly--I expected them to at least drag it out a little bit but instead they are telegraphing plot points, skipping important beats and just quickly doing the absolutely necessary to keep the plot going. (But that's most of the show, if not all of it). On top of that, we got a horrid non-reaction from deVry. His expression didn't even change after he got the news.

The dialogue they give to Sabrina and Felix in order to make them appear young and cool is ridiculous: "And pull a Britt?" & "Reverse Britt." It's enough to make me sick. Who talks that way? I have to say though, I didn’t expect Felix to turn on Sabrina so quickly. It seems Brad didn't get through to him at all--he continues to stick his nose on other people's business and is judgmental while at it, too. And what the [!@#$%^&*] was that with Liz? Is this coming out already?

The acting and action between Luke and Heather was so laughable. It gave PASSIONS a run for its money. And, all of a sudden, Heather has men helping her? Sigh.

Alexis had one of the most disgusting lines: "Out of all three, completely unsuitable men that got me pregnant..." etc. EW. Just gross. My God, all these characters are walking around being flip & sarcastic about their own lives, as if they actually go home and watch the episodes of the show they're in. Ron is so aware of the soapiness of everyone's lives (SHOCKER! Soapy lives on a soap) that he can't help but have people running around, self-aware about how soapy everything is.

SO many questions about the Chief of Staff bullshit. It just kept getting worse and worse. What got into Brittany, giggling through all of her scenes? Who shows up at a board meeting for the position of COS in jeans? Is being appointed COS at a hospital like going to the park? Who the hell just demands an answer from the person possibly hiring them?

And, THE F.UUUUUUCK?????? regarding Dr. O walking in as the new COF. I love a good twist just as the next sucker but I wish you could have seen my face when they revealed it was her.

I thought they would have taken the opportunity to bring several people under this one umbrella story and see some great clashes and behind the scenes machinations in order to get the position. But that's my bad--that's what an actually well written soap would have done. And we clearly don't have that here.

[DRW50]

I saw posts saying Lucas needs to help Sam see the light about Julian. I don't see the need for this awakening. Once you take away that some people want to see his bony body naked and love him because he's not Sonny, what is there that would make Sam having a relationship with him anything that makes sense for her? The whole story is a flop, as is de Vry.

[YRBB]

de Vry is bony?

I don't see the need for Sam or Lucas having anything to do with Julian. I don't even know why people would ask for that. If Lucas becomes an apologist for Julian

[AlexElizabeth]

I figured we were going to have weeks and weeks of Julian and Lucas just missing each other. I couldn't believe it all came out yesterday. That was pretty anticlimactic.

[cassadine1991]

Julian will never be Lucas' father, he was just a sperm donor, Tony Jones is Lucas' father

SMH at all these comments

[Winchester91]

I hope Lucas and Julian work out their issues and become a force. I hate that there are no real close father-son relationships on this show.

[John]

I blame that on Guza. Lucas haad a great dad, Tony. I dont see hm accepting Julian

[Cheap21]

really, we're still blaming Guza? He hasn't been around for years. There are several fathers and sons on the show. The current regime has ruined relationships while failing to develop others. The current status quo has nothing to do with Guza. For their credit, the show did great with Michael and AJ but that tends to be largely nonexistent now bc AJ is barely featured other than to get drunk and feel sorry for himself

[cassadine1991]

I agree Guza has been gone for 2 1/2 years, all,blame goes on this current regime. I agree Michael/AJ are the only father/son relationship that seems to have been written well, but yeah AJ is barely seen and when he is, the character is being written as pathetic and almost beaten-down
