GH: October 2014 Discussion Thread

I'm watching some of this with my mother and what did Howarth to do his hair? It looks very wolfen, and also like a bad dye job.

Was I supposed to laugh at the scenes where Shawn and Max were having a firefight? Why did that seem more like laser tag?

Robin's "what do I have in this handbasket?" roadtrip with Jason - I get the idea, and I think Kimberly did her best, but wouldn't it make more sense to have these scenes with Billy Miller so viewers could get used to him as Jason?

I'm surprised at how well Lynn Herring's hair has held up. I'm biased, obviously, but I think she looks great.

Are they going for Anna/Duke/Lucy or something? Did Duke and Lucy ever sleep together in the past?

Finola Hughes is better at comedy than drama these days.

I only half watched and am probably mixing up episodes.

I'm getting bored of Lucy acting like a child who didn't get her way, and making a spectacle of herself. It's all she does EVERYTIME she is on. I'm not sure I see anything between Lucy and Duke. Are they staying friends or is this supposed to be leading to something? Totally agree about Finola being better at comedy than drama these days. Her reactions as Anna to Lucy and how Anna handles Lucy are hilarious. Lynne looks great though.

Can't we get another set besides that gym? I feel like that's a waste of a set to constantly use, IMO. I'd rather have the nice pier make a comeback. And zzzz to Sonny/Sean having the same 'take them out' conversation, all they seem to do is switch between Ava and Franco's names. Zzzzz.

Always nice to have scenes between Bobbie and Carly. These are the scenes we should have been having over the years instead of them dumping Bobbie.

Did someone really have to mention Felix? I completely forgot about him to be honest, lol.

It seems like everytime a MIA character is brought up they are suddenly on-screen. I wish Carlos would go away again, or at least get a shave and a haircut, I don't care if he's in prison.

Maura West also looks fantastic, IMO. I'd still rather watch Rosalie over Kaka.

Spencer remains annoying. Ugh.

How is Sean Blakemore flaunting it? He doesn't write the scenes. I like Chad's (very different) body, but Blakemore has the body of a god.

The only reason for this whole 'the car ran over my face' rigamarole, AFAIC, is to allow RC to redo the Two Todds with A Tale of Two Jasons someday. I'd like to believe it was simply done because they don't believe fans would just accept a new face, but I don't. Still, I think Miller and Herbst are doing a good job in that mummy wrap and hospital room.

Lucy is the silliest character ever! Time for Lynn Herring to go. I forgave GH when Alan married this twat, but now, she is just so hyper for no reason. It's supposed to be in the spirit of the character, but its so unnecessary. Did like the scenes with Bobbie, Carly, Scott and Duke. That was funny as hell. Leave it to Lucy to mention Tony. Not sure why she would dis Carly when they get along fine, but casualties of war are just that.

Not much else happened except Shawn's amazing body on display! I just love looking at him.

If Valentini, "The Budget Guru", wants to shoot out of sequence, that's fine, but can it not be so obvious onscreen? It was almost as if Mo and LW didn't know the characters slept together again and Carly all but told Sonny Tuesday that she does not love FrankenTodd and that she needs him to keep his mouth shut. Well yesterday, Sonny does not know Carly's motives at all. Lawd! LW's hair was also much longer in Tuesday's eppy.

Last week, after the big shootout at Ava's the door was full of bullet holes. When the hit man came to threaten Julian, the door was intact and later in another scene, it was riddled with bullet holes again. Sloppy editing.

I didn't realize that editing isn't responsible for this kind of thing so it would be a production (continuity)? issue which door is used during filming a scene eg the one with holes or the one without and the editing process can't correct that kind of blunder...Oh Ohkay ... learn something new every day.

    • I can't watch until later (Canada issues). What is Philip's motivation for stealing the drug? Only plot I cared about today and you did not mention it 
    • Doug III’s first day of work. Hope he does a good job… or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow

      His scenes with Holly were nice though. They’re sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future.  I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how they’re both being tied into EJ’s shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I don’t think Roman is the shooter though either.  I didn’t have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachel’s problems than herself. But at the same time, I’m really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. I’m not shipping them at all, but I’m definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, I’m not so sure about that either.  And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together

    • Some country club revelation thoughts from a casual watcher no one asked for. The Great: Daphnee Duplaix gave the best performance we've seen yet. Nicole's dialogue was also well thought out and felt character specific. TJ Maxx Ted was also pretty good. Trisha Mann-Grant steals every scene she's in. Often without even trying. Carrying multiple episodes worth of exposition heavy soap dialogue with starts and stops and recapping and drama and humor is no small feat and she nailed. Vernon telling Lesliana to STFU.  The Bad: So much of the dialogue for the rest of the cast was overly written. Martin said "You are a vile human being with a hole in your heart!". Marty, what are we doing? It's SO dramatic and sounds so silly coming from this grown man. Do Bill and Hayley do anything but talk about the Duprees? And the nerve of her to get so excited to find out Ted is a cheater when she and her husband are too. There should be a hint of shame mixed in with your glee, ma'am. The Questionable: Coffee and a rendition of Amazing Grace after finding out Nicole was betrayed by her husband. The Duprees are an odd bunch. The stinger of one segment had Anita prepared to lambast Lesliana, when we came back someone else was talking. When Anita eventually said something to Wig, it was a lukewarm at best. And then of course she thought singing a song about something that should absolutely not be extended to her son-in-law. The entire family allowing this deranged woman to speech at them in their own was...nuts. I know she said something about what would the neighbors say but my GOD. Is she just going to be allowed to trespass whenever she feels like it now? The focus on Leslie and her wig usage as an oddity is...odd. I think Chelsea said something like "and she wears wigs!" (while wearing a buss down middle part). Okay? It's just not that odd for a black woman to change up her hair. It's the different names that's the problem. I know it's meant to be humorous, in a throwback soap kind of way, but it fell flat for me.  I'm sorry I find the whole family to be WEIRD. It's like they want us to see them as ruthless yet benevolent, open yet furtive, snobbish yet tooth achingly sweet all at the same time. I cannot get a lock on the family dynamics. Everyone is just there.  I'm gonna cry if this show doesn't start giving us ages (or close to it!) for these characters. Because if Eva is 21-22 then Martin was being given crayons, a soda pop and blinders when he was 15-17 years old. Martin had to have been under 8 for me to buy this story, which would make Eva and Kat late 20s (Martin is at least 35 since he wants to run for president), which I don't think they're meant to be. It's honestly minor but it bothers me. I've mentioned this to @Vee but I think the optics on opening the show with both sisters discovering their husbands of over 30 years are cheaters should've been considered. I doubt there was any intention behind it, no one's rubbing their hands together as they scheme to say the married black men can't stay loyal but how does it look? Maybe it's just me. Honestly it's probably just me!
    • Thank you very much!!!! I really appreciate it!!! I also have read the GH coffee table book from the 90s!!!
    • For a homeless woman, June sure has nice teeth. I agree Ted didn't bring the power in the fallout scenes but to can him and leave Tomas, Martin and Derek onscreen? i'm not looking forward to Martin's secret being revealed and have him flail in the spotlight scenes. Yes, he's got a little better, but... When someone like Timon delivers with every line reading, you wonder how some other casting decisions were made. And I need sunglasses every time characters are at Uptown-is that green paint left over from GL's Cedars Hospital makeover? And for the cliffhanger, instead of the Door dash nonsense, simply have Leslie encounter Vanessa on her way out and push past her to enter. As there is no front door have Leslie barge into the living room, with Vanessa following.  Then Nicole can tell Vanessa- it's OK she can leave them alone.
