GH: May 2014 Discussion Thread

[Khan]

Hey, Cheap, if you're there and reading this, is there any chance of reviving "Friday Ho's" for GH? Because, I think this show could provide you with plenty of fodder. Just saying.

Still loving Jordan. I like TJ having his mother around and I like how torn Shawn actually is. Duke is so laughable as Sonny's lackey. Sonny is also laughable as a mobster.

Julian trying to walk away from Puke was like some bad fanfic so that Geary could play out his mobster fantasy. And then Puke imagining Kaka while Tracy was in bed? Yuck. So disgusting. Tracy looks like a complete and utter fool for being with him. And all she cares about is bedding him? Like, seriously? Why wasn't Tracy all over getting her company back? It was just so Puke and Jules could have their scenes and it was meant to be a wrinkle for Puke to freak out about. It was pointless.

I liked Michael asking Tracy about Luke's history of forcing himself on women and how he's sort of torn about running ELQ but at the same time, Chad Duell shows just how bad of an actor he is. Yeesh. I don't buy him being very torn at all. He's like Jason 2.0 (which I've always thought he was going for). Kaka is just awful and pointless as always.

Lulu was ridiculous as always. All this is doing is creating some ridiculous forced problem for Dante and Lulu. Nothing more. And Dante does sound like a child going on about Sonny screwing around. You should know your father is a dirtbag, Dante! Why does this surprise you? I love Maura but thank god for the break from Ava. Too bad Sonny couldn't have gone with her. Mo has gotta be near his episode guarantee, no?

Carly looks ridiculous with Franco and exactly, how is he paying for anything? He must do something spectacular in the sack because all she wants to do is sleep with him and let him mooch a hotel room.

The Nurse's Ball was [!@#$%^&*]. And I just can't with how he said it didn't have the emotional hook of last year with Sobby's transformation. REALLY? My God. If that's his focus then we have some real problems.

So...I watched the first day of the Nurses' Ball with my mother (well, she skipped everything with Nik and spawn)...

I think the idea of the red carpet is fun, but it just went on and on. I probably cringed the most when Jordan was introduced as "TJ's mother," as red carpet reporters wouldn't be so forced.

My mother likes Olivia, so that mostly meant I just watched those scenes to see if her fillers had improved, which they seemed to, somewhat.

Bobbie, Felicia, and Lucy on the red carpet were all dressed like Fran Fine's mother guest-starring in Gunsmoke. Kristina Wagner has looked so lovely in her return, it would have been nice to see her in a more flattering gown. Oh well. I did like the whole Aztec princess reference.

I don't think anything about Britt sitting at home watching the ball with her sassy gay friend was in character, but then, Britt doesn't have a character, so I can see why they just did something KT could actually play.

I get that they wanted to have Kevin be shocked by the upcoming affair reveal, but having Kevin completely oblivious to any tension between Scott and Lucy (oh, he's upset about Laura...you're upset about Bobbie) was absurd. Kevin isn't an idiot, even if the writer is.

Poor Kelly Monaco having to play that "fall." I don't even know how you act that. It was so awkward.

Obrecht's number was something that would have been cute for one or two short moments. Instead it seemed to never end. The autotuning was glaring, and why was she wearing parachute pants? I thought Kathleen Gati was fine, but I can't say I was blown away by the number. I've seen it a million times before. It was very low rent charity event. All they needed was someone who'd been on a popular sitcom in 2003 to show up and take off his shirt for $50.

I had to tune into these Lucy and Bobbie scenes. They were so random...but I loved them.

Heard Baby Come Back on the radio this morning. Wow! What a great song wasted on this rubbish show!

Kman, why is Carly with FrankenTodd? I'd rather try and find out how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop - it would be easier! They are surviving off of chem and chem alone. Carly does not need FrankenTodd for anything she is doing right now. FrankenTodd is boxed into a corner, and I just don't see how they can get him out. FrankenRon didn't have the skill for this particular resurrection, so there is no way they are skilled to fixed the mess that is FrankenTodd. The only thing missing from his scenes with Carly is a leash!

[SFK]

I thought that theme music was the opening notes of a newer, longer sequence. Guess not. What a nothing little tune.

[AlexElizabeth]

Danny is bigger than Sam at this point. Time to have her stop holding onto him in scenes.

[SFK]

What is Sam and Lucas' connection?

[AlexElizabeth]

Half siblings. Julian is their dad.

[John]

Half Brother & Sister

[SFK]

Thank you both.

[cuzIsaySo]

Why would Lucas want anything with such an obnoxious meddling and judgmental prick like felix? I cant believe those idiots at the helm are still willing to sale that piece of crap known as Felix as some god's gift to gay man.

[KMan101]

God Sam and Silas are the most boring sexless couple around. Lord. And how long was Sam going on about those damn flowers?

So now Lucas and Felix are suddenly sharing a bunch of scenes? This show is so predictable and transparent.

[AlexElizabeth]

Poor Lucas has no choice but to ask Felix out since he's the only other gay around. He wanted to ask out Milo, which would've been preferable to Fecas.
