Ho,hum.... So the body from Scrotum...er... Croton was Maggie /Frankie/Chloe/Margaux's dead Daddy Vincent Marino.....   Big shock GH.

Ryan has taken over for Kevin, but we all know that Franko will discover the truth, he is, after all the new hero on the show.  

 

NuJordan isn't bad but once she has scenes with TJ.....  O__O. We'll see.

 

 

It's a shame these two won't be able to have a longer story. 

 

Yet these three do......

 

As for Nina's kid, I don't care if it's Kiki or anyone else, I don't think the kid is necessary on any level.  Hayley Erin still hasn't improved and Kiki/Griffin are like watching paint dry.

 

Oscar's sudden brain tumor is another plot point story that came out of the blue that feels forced.  Can't kids just have normal problems--  acne, not feeling comfortable in their own skin, etc.? Introducing Oscar and shoring up the Quartermaine family's tree branches (at least a little) was a decent idea. Making him (temporarily?) terminal is not. We've lost enough Quartermaines, thank you.   Also- why don't these kids have dayplayer friends? Josslyn, Cameron and Oscar spend no time with anyone else their own age.

 

 

Kristina working for Julian ...Yawn

More Lucas.....Yay!!!!

Lucas losing his "kid"... Booo!

Michael moping around.... so what else is new. He needs to lighten up and start screwing random women--- He's part Spencer, part Quartermaine, part Corinthos. He should be chasing tail, not paperwork.

 

The death of Gail Baldwin should bring Serena to town for good, as well as a couple of Denise Alexander pop-ins and some flashbacks with Monica, Scott and Lesley.

 

In just a few scenes, Lynn Herring breathed some much needed life into the show......

LMFAO,   Jason telling Mike today "I know your son, he's a very good man".   No he's NOT Jason, GENERAL HOSPITAL.   He's in the mob, he's a crook. He's a freaking murderer several times over.  He shot his own wife, Carly, in the head while she was in labor with Morgan.  The way he's treated women he claims to love is abusive, especially mentally and as I previously mentioned he attempted murder of his own wife and son while he was being born!   Carly, Jason, Sam etc.  are stupidly supporting him no matter what.  The reason I no longer watch this show regularly and never will while Maurice Benard & Sonny Corinthos are on the show.  IMHO, Maurice Benard and the writers glamorizing blindly Sonny Corinthos are the worst things  that ever happened to GH

I think you summed up what is the biggest complaint that many fans of the current version of GH complain about.  While the writers have tried hard to emphasize family, what they have tried to do is make the Corinthos clan like the ATWT Hughes family, only with mob ties, and that just doesn't work, at least in daytime.  Family emphasis is good on soaps, but in this case, they have chosen the wrong family to center the show around.  I'm not saying that the Corinthos family needs to be written out altogether, but, they should not be written as the moral center and heroes of the show.  Perhaps in a roundabout way, General Hospital has fallen into a trap of its own making.  They have always tried so hard to create anti-heroes that they have forgotten how to write a good guy character with a solid background and keep him (or her) interesting.  You know.  Like Dr. Hardy or Lesley Webber.

And with the episode that aired today, the skip feature doesn’t work for GH again, dagnabit.  I thought it was strange that ABC would allow a show that relies heavily on advertising dollars to use the skip feature.  So it’s back to fast  forwarding through commercials, not just Sonny scenes, Franco scenes, Jasam scenes...

    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
    • Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor.  By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.  SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.    
    • I think someone said it did exist, but I can't remember.
    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.
