GH: May 2016 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

No heart and no soul to the Nurses Ball. The redheaded creature known as Nina obnoxiously mispronouncing Anna's last name. It only goes downhill from there. Everything about GH is so over the top and obnoxious beyond belief. I really hope an underutilized Lucas isn't murdered only to prop up Julian. It's not like were going to see either Brad or Bobbie grieve Lucas. A murder at the Nurses Ball will forever mar the event. Dr O. aka Snidely Whiplash plotting trouble like the cartoon character she is. They spent the whole episode interviewing people at that unneeded red carpet. Besides the series regulars and the paparazzi i see no other extra's. Bobbie who hasn't been used since the early 2000's fainted i'm not liking this. This incarnation of the Nurses Ball is a far cry from the Labine/Riche era.

The red carpet is horrid and cheapens it even more. I expect a ball thrown by a local hospital to look, well, like a ball thrown by a local hospital. But there's no build-up, excitement or energy. It's all about shoving a sponsor in our face and making everything wacky and wild.

It's a hot mess ever year. I just watch to laugh at the whole thing. Nina/MS was annoying as hell today. Her goo goo eyes at Franco Baldwin:rolleyes:(when did his last name become Baldwin?) was blah. No one cares if they are paired again or not. Lucas and not wanting to see Brad before the wedding was :rolleyes:.  Of course we know whats coming up next for Lucas….oh well …..

 

I think people just watch to laugh at this once great soap…..so sad but true…..I am sure FV couldn't care less why people watch which is even more sad.

The thing that puzzles me is that during the previews they make it look like Griffin is going to be part of that notorious "Magic Milo" act yet, didn't he just almost opt out on going with Maxie to the ball at all??...

What a nightmare. 

 

The red carpet was sad, and it had pathetically low energy. Michelle Stafford worked every nerve I ever had. Her Nina never worked less than it did today, and I wanted Nina to die right there. There wasn't one interesting thing on that entire red carpet. 

 

The "Welcome to the Nurses Ball" opening number was embarrassing beyond belief, and featured the most cringeworthy rapping of all time. The set is severely underpopulated, and there was nothing special about wardrobe or hairstyling. The whole episode sucked raw sewage.

 

Worth watching? Only if you like trainwrecks.

I half-wondered if Maura West ad-libbed "Who gave her a Microphone?"

Personally, I'd rather see Obrecht pulling her Sound of Music than that awful opening number.

No Quartermaines or Laura showing up? of course not.

 

Liz's arrival with Frankles?Threw up in my mouth a bit there. Why can't Liz get a real love interest?

 

As for the battle of the Bloat... Nikolas and Jason "squaring off...Hahaha

 

I actually missed Britt's commentary with Brad...

 

Shouldn't Kaka be working? Not that I ever need to see HE grace the screen.....and I don't think she and Dillon work. I like his chemistry w/ Maxie...

This beeyotch is the only reason I'm watching...

I didn't mind Robin being there...at least her reason to come and meet Griffin was a decent reason...

Terrible. Michelle Stafford is abysmal.The whole thing looked like the budget was $1.98.

A live TV red carpet for a hospital ball? A guest list of 20 (including waiters)?

And that rap song ... who was responsible?

Everyone involved should be ashamed.

The though of Sonny getting custody of Avery is sickening to me.  She needs to be with her mother.  Sonny and Carly care about nothing other than erasing Ava from her life.  Their behavior is reprehensible and it would be so sad for that child if she were to be raised by them.

Carly makes me sick. Sonny is worse than Ava. He is a mobster who has killed how many people already? Has a loser son who is the spitting image of his father. She has no right to throw stones at Ava. This is why GH is such a bad show. You have no one to root for. And the one that you root for the least is written with a halo on top of their heads.

And yes Michelle Stafford is downright awful.

As for todays mess…I haven't seen it all but……New Doggy Daddy doctor is some wacko serial killer? Thats what I am assuming…..

 

Nice to see JZ again……Milo is back again I see and FV just had a spill in aisle 11 after watching his routine again. How did Emma have time to remember or practice a routine?? Jason vs Nicolas …zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz……..I see GF in the audience ..must mean she appeared in todays show….

 

And as Blanche once famously said…" I didn't know Priests could take their clothes off"…….

At least they remembered Laura and Kevin today. I don't know why they couldn't afford Mac and Felicia. And no Tracy or Monica is sort of surprising.

 

Nice to see Ned and the Emma thing was cute enough I guess. I'm in a good mood so I'll say it was cute enough, lol.

 

Don't get me started on the Jake/Franco crap. It's soooo forced. God. Make it stop. And then having Kaka not surprised he cares ... we get it. Sigh. Please make it stop. Why couldn't Frank hire Matt Ashford back and give us Tom Hardy instead of Franco or Jillian?

 

So is Lucas dead? Another kill off the gays movement?

 

I'm so tired of Carly and Sonny constantly getting the upper hand. I feel like Ava/Maura are on borrowed time, be it a year from now or a few months. The writing just isn't there and this Avery thing can only go so far.

 

I'm not complaining about Griffin taking his clothes off ... but the whole routine is now tired. JMO. But of course Frank probably got his jollies off showcasing his chiseled, dead-eyed pets.

    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either. 
    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
