Agreed.

 

Hiring names and wasting them and bringing in new characters are Frank's worst qualities as a producer

I can't wait until all of his secrets come out. Hopefully, him and buddy Valentin will then scurry out of town with their tails between their legs.

And what is MEK doing as Martin. I get he is supposed to be creepy but I dunno there is something that i cant explain yet. So i guess MEK said he knew of talk that Martin & Laura could be related given her bio Dads last name and MEK would like to work with Genie again

 

I could see FV going this route to extend MEK's stay

I think Valentin will be here as long as JPS wants the gig

I adore Watros and she did give a nice performance but it's hard to care about Nina. Nina is just a waste of a character, pointless and not needed. Even Watros can't make her work, sadly.

 

And also, it's pretty disgusting to see Lulu treated as the bad guy. I burst out laughing when Valentin and his bug eyes threatened her. Jesus. Frank wouldn't dare let Lulu have a backbone against his pets. Heaven forbid ... and the way Maxie was talking to her? Lord. I wish Lulu slapped her. Can't wait for that annoying twit Maxie to learn Peter is trash.

 

Maxie and Lulu have basically become the same person. Can we dump one of them?

Better yet?  Since GH is full-on sci-fi again, thanks to that "memory mapping" crap, there could be some freak molecular occurrence that causes Maxie and Lulu literally to fuse into one person.

I think making MEK's new character a half-brother to Laura is an interesting speculation by fans, but I wouldn't be surprised if the writers just pulled the last name out of the air.  My mind gets mixed up on old story lines anymore.  Wasn't there a character named David Gray, a nice looking Ken doll, 80s style (who wore a leather jacket all the time), that was chasing our Laura around the time she married Luke, or was he chasing Laura Templeton?  I truly don't remember.  And I admit being stupid enough to think that maybe the now departed Margaux Dawson was related to Jane and Howie of early 70s GH fame.  Nope.

Yup.  David Gray was initially responsible for Laura's (Spencer) disappearance.  I forget how she ended up being held captive by the Cassadines, though.

 

IIRC, David was Luke's antagonist in the Sword of Malkuth storyline.  Supposedly, Luke magically developed psychic powers that propelled David to his ultimate fate.  (I didn't watch, I'm just going on what I've read).  Fortunately, though, they dropped that aspect of Luke's character after the storyline wrapped.

I don't think GH ever connected the dots, but David could have been some sort of minion for the Cassadines, aiding the curse Helena put on Luke and Laura. I mean, if Luke has superpowers, why wouldn't the Cassadines be demonic?

 

@vetsoapfan, in your honor, I'm giving the world's most pronounced eye roll.

Thank you everyone for the help on David Gray.  I had absolutely zero memory of Luke's psychic powers or "The Sword Of Malkuth".  Good God, how silly things got in such a short time.  In 1980, Lesley was slapping Monica at a Quartermaine party, very adult, and it descended to this comic book storytelling.

ToddFrankenDrew's  accent is extremely irritating. Much like the actor. 

 

Kim's obsession with her only friend in town's husband is pathetic as well.

And then there's Jillian.....

    • Okay...I'm just going to call it. Ambyr Michelle is the breakout star of this show with the young set hands down! There is no character like Eva that pulls my heart strings, and she's playing it perfectly. If Eva and Leslie are on, it's a good episode! If written properly, Eva and Kat's rivalry is one that could go on for YEARS. Of course, it's fun to speculate about who is really whom, but I could see them developing as frenemies after some time. They really need a guy to tussle over to amp it up. Tomas is pretty, but the actor has got to loosen up some in his scenes, I think. He is improving though. It would be good to introduce a new young man in that story for a foursome.  Martin and Smitty finally feel like a real couple to me, too. Hopefully, they locked them into four year contracts.
    • I'll be that guy and say I don't think TMG is a fool. This is a popular contract role on a year-round soap opera for a woman of a certain age (to say nothing of a woman of color). If I'm her I pull a Kimberlin Brown and ride this til the wheels fall off.
    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
