GH November 2020 Discussion

Even though Sam was in the right in her scenes with Alexis today, I do love when people call her out about how dangerous her relationship with Jason is for her children. Plus, are they going to go there with a Jason and Britt pairing? I wouldn't hate it.

 

And, was Alex this crazy on AMC, or was she completely rewritten for GH?

Yeah, as I recall, Alex was actually the "boring" twin compared to Anna; Alex was a sensible doctor, not an international spy. Nowadays, she's being written a lot more like Anna and Alex's evil mother, Charlotte (played by Samantha Eggar).

I thought the same thing about Sam and Jason. Kelly Monaco actually tried in those scenes!!! 

 

It might be interesting to see Jason paired with women outside of Sam and Elizabeth.

It would definitely be something new for him. He's been in this endless loop with Sam for so long. I don't even know why they're not married or even acting like a couple anymore.

 

I got my fingers crossed too lol but it would be quite a miracle are RH finally leaves.

This probably unpopular, but I think SBu does well with romantic pairings or at least has chemistry with most of his leading ladies.  JaSam has just been dull for years.  Aside from Keesha all of Jason's pairings have been relatively successful so I am unsure why they don't try him with Britt or someone else.  I think it's the same with Sonny/Carly.  The show is just so stuck on Jasam/Carson being together, it just becomes boring.

I agree! Jason had good chemistry with all three Carlys, Brenda, Karen, Elizabeth and Robin. I grew up on Jasam but now it feels like his dullest pairing.

 

Same with Sonny & Carly. I couldn't wait for them to reunite. Now they're so dull. I think its due in part to Maurice Bernard's checked out and tired acting as of late.

MB definitely has a problem with chemistry with female characters that aren't named Carly or Brenda.  And I think it's clear he's checked out of his pairing with LW's Carly, but it doesn't bother me all that much?  They are just whatever to me and I do think MB wants VM back and his Brenda pairing, but that probably won't happen anytime soon.

 

I liked JaSam too in the beginning.  It just feels like both characters/actors are being wasted.  And SBu has proven time and time again he can click with his female leads.  I want him to have a fun, love/hate relationship with Britt or someone.  Similar to the Brenda/Jason vibe.  He plays a great straight man in comedy scenes.  I am not sure why the show is so afraid to step out of the Carson/JaSam forever bubble.  

 

*Also side note, forgot about Courtney.  SBu had no chemistry with ALW but of course she had great chemistry with BW's AJ so they had to destroy that lol.

Hmmmm...Jason and Britt....there's a thought. And I agree if they went there, a vibe similar to the Brenda/Jason vibe would be fun to watch. 

 

Of course, they could have done something like that while Drew was still on the canvas so Sam had someone to be with (and that KM liked) but alas.

Agree about Dev. Face it, they can’t decide what to do with Dev. His character has changed about 6 times. Honestly, the other teens are all over the place, too. 
 

And why would Joss and Trina want to be anywhere near someone like Dev? I thought these girls valued themselves. 
 

I did have to LOL today at the teens sitting at their diner table — about 2 feet from the front door. Doesn’t everyone love a seat that clos3 to the exit?

He got so mad at Joss and Trina so quickly. Dev, have a Snickers lol

 

And they had him talking about Oscar like he knew him or something. I can't even say that it seemed out of character because his character has changed so many times. If Frank wanted AA on the show so badly, he should have just been a recast Spencer or even a recast Oscar.

    • Jill Farren Phelps was always very skilled at saying what she meant onscreen in the bluntest way possible, like whenever she wanted fans to support one character vs. the other (hence Megan McTavish groaning about having to write Kale Browne's Sam Rappaport into three days a week at OLTL). Perhaps you should consider doing the same. Historically your intent is always far more obvious than your efforts at coy embroidery anyway. You believe people are dismissing Phelps' accomplishments, and suggest misogyny and fan blinders allow people to too easily pigeonhole and dismiss her skill set. I think we all understand her varied skill set. We're saying it's not enough to make up for her deficiencies as a storyteller and creative. JFP was undoubtedly a skilled technical producer. As a solo storyteller, and de facto HW, she was a repeat and predictable failure. She was not the first or last EP (male or female) to think she was a writer. If you want us to stop taking your behavior personally when you suggest misogyny is at play in board opinions of JFP, perhaps you should consider spending the next 10+ years here not acting like you're the only one who gets it.

      Melissa was here today & we went to Michael's Crafts & Ofc Depot. In Michael's there were two beautiful LITTLE girls who kept staring at me, so I gave them a littel wave & very quietly said HI & then did back. I told Melissa they were staring at me. She smiled & said "Purple. A lot of little girls love purple & you forget but you have purple hair. Seeing you their whole imaginations are transformed! Thinking "That lady has purple hair. That means I can have purple hair! They had no clue before seeing you that it was possible." I just laughed & laughed.
    • This opening scene is hilarious...it's like someone wrote out the script for Philip with one hand. And Rick...sniffing a scarf over and over. And in their next scene they are still sniffing the [!@#$%^&*] scarf as the camera stays all over Philip's bare chest and armpits as he keeps working out. Insane stuff.

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

    • Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.  
    • It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
