GH: April 2014 Discussion Thread

Those Ned and Tracy scenes were really great. It is a clear indication that the Qs no matter how trashed they were by previous regime are still relevent to the canvas.

You think there is any chance GH could lure Wk back with a contract? He is on recurring at Days, right?

Get rid of 5 unnecessary newbies (pick the ones you want I am not that invested in any of the ones we have on contract anyway) and you could get WK a contract worthy of his talent.

This is so true, but WK would not be offered a contract. Ned is a Q and he was not created by Crappy. They have no use for him even though Ned is my 2nd fav Q. Closely followed by Alan!

He looked so handsome, but I had the misfortune of watching him in scenes with that dried up witch, Tracy. The interruption was good in more ways than one.

Wasn't there some plan (or rumor or idea) to bring back Alan from the dead too but Stuart's health issues have prevented this? Has that been completely dropped? I really find myself missing him at times. It was nice that he was able to share scenes with Leslie, Jane, Sean and Chris Robinson for the anniversary last year. Oh and that thing they still call Emily.

Exactly. He (like Eileen Davidson now) has the freedom to play both of his characters and still has time for other things. It's a win/win and he'd be crazy to give it up. It's not like he'd work very much anyway under a contract. It would be a waste.

I think she was really good with Jerry and with special agent Raynor (played by Mark Penter). I also remember that Gordon Thompson had a guest starring turn as some sort of special agent and I think it could have worked. I would say the same thing for Durant.

Thinking about Durant, they really should have made him Jesse's bio dad. Maxie dating Carly's half_brother would have been interesting. So many missed opportunities with Durant.

OMG lol. Dead AJ is hilarious. I love him tormenting Sonny. "I thought she'd NEVER leave!" LMAO me too! Olivia was so [!@#$%^&*] annoying.

And can all of this please help end the crappy Olivia and Sonny relationship?

I liked Alexis with Jax, Jerry (somewhat ... I bought her as a lusty teenager for him more than for Julian) but mostly Ric (who also still works quite well with Liz). Though I couldn't see this hot flash teenage version of Alexis with Jax anymore. And it's been so long. I didn't mind her with Ned, either, but I don't remember that much chemistry.

This "Luke" and Tracy thing is making her look so awful. I hate this. But Tracy's just so desperate to be loved that she buys what he's shoveling. Ugh.

Carlos is such an awful liar. He looks like [!@#$%^&*] too. How is this allowed? Shouldn't actors look GOOD and I'm far from shallow. And I just can't with Ellen pacing around and shouting. God. I'm surprised Kaka hasn't run in and rubbed his shoulder and reassured him. That's all the bitch seems good for.

I love Jordan. She's so good. Best new character in ages. See. I can praise the show when they deserve it. And she deserves the praise. The actress is fantastic.

LOL. I buy her as savvy and smart but some mastermind. No. I agree with that, but I still like her, although my very first thought was she'll be ruined at some point and I shouldn't have to even think that way, but that's what GH has trained me to do. Expect the worst and literally pray for the best.

Enough with "Luke" Regular Luke is bad enough but this story needs to move along b4 Geary goes on vacation.

Vinessa Antoine was great on Haven, and she's the best newbie since ?

Time for a drive by Sabrina, no one wants to see you happy.

U/O I like Diane Miller, as she'll probably be on to help Carrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrlos. There has been a bi*chy auburn haired lawyer around since I started watching. Does anyone else remember Zelda Bernstein[sarah Simmons]? There was Abby[Robin Christopher}. There just needs to be an antagonist. I don't mind Diane as much, because she usually has something to make me laugh.

Sonny callin Ava? Enough! Now we'll have to hear Morgan cry againjeal0002.gif

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
