Agreed, some of the storylines can actually work, they just lack the hype and dramatic excecution of back in the day. Some of the sets actually look good too, just wish they'd dim the lighting, the production looks cheap compared to B&B and Y&R

Catching up on the last week of the show.  

 

What a waste with the Dante storyline.  I am fine with the stupid adventure story to get him back and introduce his issues.  But he really could have shined in telling a PTSD story on the show.  Mix in characters like Chet, Anna, Griffin (if he wasn’t leaving), Ava, and Willow and you have in character storylines based on something real.  You could have even mixed in Shiloh and Dawn of Day.  So you get soapy material with one of those characters going to Shiloh for classes, while having the larger story be about something with depth.  Argh!!!

 

And Dawn of Day- if Brad joins that would be great.  But just like the Kevin/Ryan story, the plot is fine and even soapy fun.  But the execution is lacking.  And again, I think production is to blame.

 

I can’t wait to watch today’s anniversary episode on Hulu tonight.

 

"Dawn of Day"?  Are they really calling that cult "Dawn of Day"?  That was the name of the soap Rhoda Morgenstern was watching while she was unemployed on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," lol!

The anniversary episode saddened and angered me for so many reasons.

 

Laura pimping for Sonny and praising his virtues, in a chapel of all places??? Gag me.

 

That vile degenerate Franco being in any way related to my Scotty? Over my dead body!

 

Gail's memorial did not warrant even ONE flashback of...you know, GAIL?

 

It was great to see some rarely-used vets. I'd watch regularly if Lesley, Monica, Scotty, Laura, Mac, Bobbie, Lucy and the other REAL core characters of GH were featured on a weekly basis, but we know that now the anniversary is over, we'll go back to having the same irrelevant and/or repugnant "filler" characters rammed down our throats every day, whether they should even be part of the show or not. (Of the current contract cast, I'd immediately axe the vast majority of actors.)

 

Sigh.

Given her history, Liz talking to Cameron about sex and consent could have been a really great moment but, of course, we got Franco. This show can never get it right. 

Drives me nuts that they're always taking these moments away from Liz and giving them to Franco.

 

Shiloh wants $10,000 and Kristina still doesn't realize it's a scam 🙄

Please show, don't tease us with the idea of Maxie/Chet just to end up giving us Maxie and boring ass Peter instead. Ugh.

 

Can't believe we have to sit through this ridiculous meeting at the school.

Yeah after those scenes, I wanna give good luck t whoever becomes Nina, cause the character is dead to me & when  and IF they learn of the mom/daughter connection I hope Willow spits in Nina's face

MS showed in those scenes, why she shouldn't be coming back to Y&R as Phyllis.   She's a cold actress that can't show true emotion or empathy.

Stafford  was bad in those classroom scenes, and she looked bad, too.

 

The whole thing was absurd. No school operates that way. The kid would b3 moved to another classroom or her rich parents would private school the little witch.

 

The principal warning Willow was laughable.

No words LMFAO

 

 

These people are too stupid to be embarrassed.  No pride whatsoever!

These soaps should've done this type of marketing of merchandise when these daytime dramas were actually good.

I'm laughing at the Sonny and Carly and Jason and MAX...not Sam but MAX LMAO

If you look at the site, they also sell cardboard cut-outs of some of the characters. That's the craziest as who is included. The only thing I kind of like is the Kelly's mug, though I am not sure on the font. If they had a Retro-hospital GH logo item well for nostalgia's sake, I'd like that. 

Gag me with a spoon.

 

I'm tempted to buy a Corinthos mug just to smash it, and Sonny & carly standees just to stomp on them.

 

Really: vomit.
