Well since I still haven't figured out how to put spoilers on here since the reboot of SON from the last time....

@DramatistDreamer I caught part of Hilary/Mariah and I noticed the same thing. MM/CG were fighting to get the words out without laughing. The setup is bad enough - I just don't buy Mariah being that hateful and smug and Hillary is far smart and hot - she won when she got the show -  to be reduced to this gutter. This regime continues to set women back decades. It's appalling.

Then don't post.  

 

This isn't hard to understand and you've been told this numerous times:

(spoiler) content  (/spoiler)

Replace (  ) with [   ]

I've wanted a Devon and Chloe pairing since EH showed up on canvas. I regret I'll never get it. They actually looked good together and had chemistry. 

 

@deedee surely TPTB know that CG doesn't work in this story. Yet, they've played it for 7 months already. I'm  wondering how much longer will we have to suffer through it. 

 

@ChitHappens Mariah being awkward and gauche could still work well in this story. The wealthy rake and the poor wallflower is a well used romantic trope. Problem is Devon ain't nobodies rake despite them trying to play him as one at the moment. He doesn't have enough sexy to make up for her lack of it. Those plane scenes were cringeworthy for him.

I personally don't think Bryton and Grimes have much chemistry between them so that doesn't help at all. It looks like two best friends trying to get together. It doesn't work. They work as friends and that's it. This whole GC Buzz story and feud between Mariah and Hilary is a waste of Grimes and Morgan. It's juvenile and stupid.

 

Chloe vs. Hilary would have been MUCH better @ChitHappens

It also feels like they're throwing a bunch of different things at the wall to see what sticks ...

 

They're really trying to find things to do for quite a few characters that should just be written off, or at least written much better (Chelsea, Jordan, Scott to name just a few). I personally think Scott would work much better with Abby but they seem to be switching up Scott and who he is so meh to that ... I'd prefer Sharon alone for a while so I'm all for them dropping her and Scott. They work OK as friends. I don't think Tognoni and the actor playing Scott had any chemistry either.

    • lol he sounds like he's speaking as Randy    
    • Dani going to Bill's house is karma for how he messes with Martin. It is totally separate, but I can't feel sorry for Bill when he's constantly antagonizing a family he says he wants nothing to do with.
    • I understand what Lois did. I can see everyone's side, even if I don't agree with them.  That  proves it's a good story    Lois is far from ruined
    • Oh wow. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
    • The character of Lois has been ruined and trashed. There's no coming back from this mess. The current production and writing team have had no idea as to what made her special to begin with. She had a bit of moral fiber. Her treatment on the show is not atypical though, as most characters will get trashed, even beyond redemption, if it serves the current flavor of the month plotline.
    • No idea if this one had ever been up before or what the exact date is, but it's always good to look at/save the new AMC content while you can. If you're here for the drama there is some delirium with Adam and Erica about 10-12 minutes in.

    • I think there's a story to tell in someone who always believed in honesty and integrity being emmeshed in so many lies, but I agree that it wasn't very well laid out over the last few months. I think if I was more invested in Lois, I would have more of an issue than I do. Few can hold up against Jane. This is one of those cases where I think mentioning who already switched babies or have long-lost children would just take away from the fallout. If Lulu wants to drag Brook Lyn for hypocrisy there is probably still time (if the show bothers). I don't think anyone would claim these are the best GH episodes ever. It may be very lowered expectations at play. But I do think that scenes like yesterdays were some of Tracy's best, as she is a character who is often not allowed that type of moment.
    • You would think that, wouldn't you? I'd almost think they needed the money to get Robert Newman back, but they also had to know Larkin wasn't going to stick around and play second banana either. I don't get what the writers thought they were doing with Calla. Long liked using actors from Texas, but other than Alex/Bev McKinsey, the characters she wrote for them seemed blah.
    • Bo has a bad history with kids named Zach. (too soon?)
    • Christie said in her interview this week -- that before taping this, she had recently started taking acting classes again, and had been doing some work in England, so that helped her to jump into Carrie for this (as well as it being all so familiar, it really was home.)
