GH: August 2017 Discussion Thread

It's been truly abysmal for months now.

 

It's hilarious to me with the GH twitter account and Frank praise episodes and say they're "epic" "amazing" "great". I want to know what show they're watching because it's been none of that. The Sam story is trash. Franco and Jillian are trash and it's disgusting that Alexis and Liz exist only for them.

 

Griffin and Ava are a waste of my time and it's clear the show has no idea what to do with either of them.

 

Awful awful awful.

Ratings are extremely steady under Shelly Altman. I think Kman u were meaning to talk about Sallys crappola is what u intended.

[KMan101]

Um. No. You're super gem Jean has written some abysmal [!@#$%^&*] in her last few months. No wonder she got the boot.

[JONNYSBRO]

 

 

 

Kman um no thats wrong. Jean announced her retirement in early June and told ABC way before that and she stayed until the end of July. When u are fired u are done the day of. Sally and Kay were done day of firings and before there contracts expired. Jean has an open door anytime she wants to return. If Jean ever returned to GH it would be an excutive consultant position.

Um...that is not true.  Some job will be decent enough to give you 2 weeks (or even a month) before your last day.  

 

Jean was allowed to bow out gracefully just like Zzzzzzzally at YR.

and hopefully soon, Smelly will kick bricks soon, as well....

Not true at all. I know many people who have been fired and didn't leave right away. Happened last year with a co-worker who got fired in April and didn't leave for four months, all because of protections that were written into her contract.

Maura West is seeing the best work of her career lately. Jean has been writing for Maura for 15 years. In many ways, Maura is Jean's muse and Jean, Maura's.

[Jerry675]

Somebody is enjoying her retirement lol. Brava Jean!

[KMan101]

Boy jonny, you need to get some other hobbies. You are SO [!@#$%^&*] obvious it's not even funny anymore.

And how many Disney execs have left to "spend more time with their family".

 

They like her so they let her bow out gracefully. The soaps probably don't want the press of "fired HW AGAIN" ... so they're allowed to spin it as they chose to leave. And watching these last few months I can see why Jean was shown the door. Lawd. Reminds me so of her lackluster ATWT.

[Jerry675]

I am not Jonnysbro. I am Jerry. I am a huge Jean fan from way back. I have followed her work since she started in soap operas at One Life to Live.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! This is just TOOOOOOO good!

Another awful episode with  three of ValenVarni's pets

 

Scott Baldwin has always known his way around a courtroom. He would never have needed Alexis to tell him how to save a case. Especially Jillian's. I have lost all respect for NLG (from long ago) for not opening her feminist mouth about the way this onscreen relationship has been played. I know a paycheck is a paycheck, but she's never been one to keep her Twitter shut

 

Ninugh is wonderful. Cartoon birds fly around her head. We get it. Any man would just be a fool to not to want her. Her scenes are just worse  every time.

 

Now they're going to use Anna as Finn's friend. Bye, no interest there either. Take your lizard and kick rocks.

[victorlord75]

I couldn't agree more!  The old Scotty could have pummeled both Alexis and Diane in the courtroom with one hand tied behind his back!
