Carly's pregnant?

Why? Is Ryan going to cause her to have a miscarriage or something? Why would they write this?

A big thumbs down to the "wedding".  I know production budgets are tight, but this "wedding" was so un-befitting for the character of Elizabeth.  An episode of a soap with a wedding should never be described as "horrible", but I have to agree that GH managed to pull it off for Valentine's Day, 2019.

Liz and Franco are truly disgusting. Liz is so proud to be married to a serial killer and can't wait to brag to the world (and "their" sons) that she's married to this pig. Vomit inducing. Liz looks TERRIBLE in this story.

 

Maxie figured out that Sasha might not be Nina's daughter in a matter of minutes. Maybe the PCPD should get her involved in the serial killer case.

Franco faking a guilty plea is a very Carlivati-esque twist, in my opinion.  

I wonder more and more if it is not the case of the writing staff that won't give us what we want, but rather, are forbidden to by someone higher up on the gravy train.  And no, I'm not throwing any "hints".  I honestly don't know who is responsible if it's true.

I definitely think the writers hands are more tied than folks probably realize. I know it's fun to always blame them, but Frank and Varni have their agendas, IMO. The problem with soaps is too many cooks in the damn kitchen. Ron certainly had his many many problems, but I see so many that still exist on GH that have gotten even worse after he left (the endless string of new hires and soap hoppers playing characters very few except the actors stans, care about and they're kept, re-signed and forced into pairings that don't work ...)

 

 

It's so [!@#$%^&*] horrible. I cannot believe the propping Franco and "Friz" are getting. It makes me nauseous, it really does. Makes me resent it 100x more than I already do. It's ludicrous they're being written like some great love that's being torn apart by lies. Sigh.

 

Ryan really needed to off a few more useless victims like Sasha and Willow, though I'd take the Britt clone anyday over Willow.

 

I feel like I posted this months ago, but maybe not, but I had been waiting for the Ryan story to become a Franco story. And here we are. They are SO [!@#$%^&*] predictable.

 

I wish more viewers saw through the blatant propping in the writing.

 

 

God no. Either being pregnant is horrible! lol. I'm so glad there's no teen pregnancy. It's overdone and never any good. I'm so over pregnancy stories anyway at this point. It's just endless babies when writers have no idea what to do with someone. It's sad. I think even Ron once admitted it gives them a beginning, middle and end and 9 months of story. It's easy (which is lazy writing).

 

I see so many outraged by "menopausal Carly" but she's likely in her 40s. It's not out of the realm of reality that she can indeed become pregnant. This isn't 1989. Instead of being outraged "menopausal Carly" is pregnant and treating it like she's dried up and incapable, people should be more outraged the writers have no clue what to do with her and saddled her with another baby (that's probably going to die and send her into Jax's arms, hopefully). She's not 50 or 60. It's also a soap ... and no, I do not want Carly pregnant in any way, shape or form, but even as a man, I'm sort of insulted at how many throw out the menopausal Carly thing. Twitter lost their damn minds over her supposed pregnancy and it was the most hilarious thing.

And you know Frank is not happy unless he makes Carly stupid af!  How in the sam hell did she think she could not get pregnant and take herself off the pill?  And we are not even factoring in that maggot's super swimmers!   I somehow felt that was too much information, but that's something you discuss with your partner/spouse.  I told my fella that they were wrecking havoc on my body and I stopped taking them.  Of course the CarScummers were over the moon with that conversation, but it was garbage and Sonny wants no part of this, so that gives me hope!  

 

And of course, this will be a fail because how do you not show a woman Carly's age not finding out she's pregnant?  Her emotions should be all over the place?  A valentines day surprise?  Huh?  I mean, Frank and the other idiots just don't mind showing how stupid they are!

    • And here I thought I'd never think about Lauren Tewes again after her brief appearance in Twin Peaks Season 3.
    • I may be the single person who does not mind Transatlantic Campy Pamela. I think it perfectly suits this sort of Absolutely Fabulous-esque supporting character she's playing much more than it did when Cady tried weird and often broad stuff at AMC* or Y&R, or later stints at ATWT. She's not Dixie and she's not trying to be. I will freely admit some of the other chances she took at other shows often came off stiff, hammy or downright mortifying (Kelly Andrews, come on down). (* - and I say that as one of the few who was somewhat into Cady trying to make Dixie more cosmopolitan in the Rosanna Cabot mold in mid-2000s AMC, just to liven the character up again)
    • There’s absolutely nothing exciting happening storyline wise but I’m always happy to see the vets on my screen so I’ll take what I can get. It’s also just nice to see them all dressed up in the same room, it always gives classic Y&R vibes. The best part? No Phyllis.

    • Well now we had Ashley's reaction-and weren't we all gasping when she appeared to hate it-but she was just joking!! She loved it. Now we have to see Abby's reaction, and maybe Mamie could come back to say she loves it. How about Jill via Zoom giving her opinion (she'll love it) and bring in a day player to play Mrs Martinez to say she loves it also... I feel bad to keep dumping on this show (not really) but when the choices they make are so inane, it's the only entertainment value the show has. Let's unpack the Nikki birthday story. So Claire wants to throw her Nana a birthday bash as away of endearing Kyle to Victor. Don't quite get the logic there,but OK. She hires a party planner who makes ridiculous suggestions. Slightly annoyed that Y&R are hiring someone for this role for 5 episodes when we never see doctors, co- workers etc. But OK to that to. With all the talk we are expecting something special. What we get is the Jazz Lounge hideously decorated with some ugly tablecloths and a few tacky decorations. They needed a planner for this? Then the guest list consists of family members (no grandchildren)and a few others. Hardly a party. As usual the costuming is pretty awful. A red and black theme ? And our guest of honor is sporting a do that looks like a cross between Cameron Diaz in Something about Mary and Marie from Roxette. They should have had an intimate dinner and ditched all the fanfare. Would have been way more believable.

    • Her accent sounds horrible and doesn't fit in line with the character or the dialogue. I was just messing around on YouTube and perusing early Tad and Dixie videos. Notably, Dixie, a resident of Pigeon Hollow, West Virginia, has no discernible accent. i have no idea why she would add a defunct accent to this character now. I want to do an honest survey here. I watch BTG every day and I love it. It's not perfect, but I find it 99% entertaining. For those that find fault with it - what is actually bothering you? I'm not going to argue at all, or disagree with you. I just want to know what others are seeing that I'm not.
    • It's a choice and today, she made it more British than ever before. It's almost like she's making Pamela act like how she thinks she should be acting.
    • I cannot believe there is a whole storyline about the Abbott house renovation. They really are grasping over at Y&R. I don’t see a big difference in the set. It is refreshed. Why make a storyline out of it? 
    • Cady is using what sounds like a transatlantic accent which is so odd these days. Sharon's hostility is entertaining already. That look she gave Anita when she opened the door was pure attitude.
