GH February 2021 Discussion


Recommended Posts

Today's episode was one of those unbearably bad episodes. GH does so well. Mostly watched with the sound off. MagaJax & Nina are a snooze fest. Martin, Valentin and Peter are awful characters. Michael and Willow are painful too watch. (Or is that Sasha? I confuse those two basic white girls all the time. LOL)  Sonny's big story is BORING CRAP.

+2 on this.  I want to say she is miscast, but Nina wasn't much before CW.  I want to like her and I think she is great, but Nina sucks.  She's boring and lacks any sorta chemistry with Jax/Ingo and JPS/Valentin.  I think if I could root for Nina/Jax or even Nina/Valentin I would feel more.   I am a huge Jax fan (Ingo's politics aside) and I haven't been this meh about a Jax pairing since Miranda and Jax were on a beach in Australia with a horse lol.  I liked him and Sam and a dead man's hand more than this.....

I don't really know how people feel about Julian in these parts (I was a fan) but it would have been worth chemistry-testing Nina and Julian a bit more. Especially if it had pitted JPS and WdV against each other which, based on their off-screen chemistry, could have been great fun.
Oh well.

Well, I cannot say that they don't look good together. And it IS refreshing to see her away from Jason. And someone was looking good in those boxer briefs...lol. 

 

I definitely find the idea inspired. Sonny's son. Alexis's daughter. And they are both so connected to so many people and yet not related.

 

I guess...hmmmm? I mean some of what I see in the two has potential. And then some of it is forced. Looks like they are doing what they happened with Sam and Patrick where it was started sllllowly and friends.

Yay!!! I made it to today!!!
 

And this is building nicely.

 

We have a mystery person with Alex's will, something recorded, and a letter for Peter. Dimitri?

 

Anna's onto Obrecht and is on the warpath.

 

And I wanted to say that I've been liking Valentin the last two weeks. I cannot seem to find the word. If he was a woman, I would say he's playing the 'vixen' role. And I've been loving it. So...he's being a rouge? 

 

Is it too much to ask for Ava and Nina to go after Carly? Double custody battle? I like that they are trying to keep Nina rational, but I want her to go revenge all up on Carly. And the hints CW has been giving in her performance is making me cross my fingers. Goodness knows Carly could use a rival and Nina is in the perfect position now to be a great one. 

 

And I might have missed it since I've only recently started back regularly but...does Robert know yet that Holly is alive?

    • Hey boys, I know these aren’t really thirst traps but I think they belong here. Don’t ya agree?

    • That’s one of the things I’ve liked since the new writers came in; more interactions between characters that they hadn’t really had scenes with 
    • Such a missed opportunity… 
    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
    • As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.
    • I have to be honest I’m really struggling with this show. I love everything with Eva/Leslie/Ted/Nicole/Kat and enjoy Dani and Bill’s shenanigans (I’m on the Hayley needs to be recast train now tho), Chelsea is second to Kat as my favorite Dupree grandkid and I loved her coming out to her mom. The show was on a truly great run with the big Leslie and Eva reveal at Nicole and Ted’s anniversary party and the fall out has still been good even with the unnecessary Ted recast and them making Leslie kind of dumb by exposing herself too much unnecessarily. The real problem for me started when they rotated back to way too damn much screen time for Derek/Ashley/Andre (if anyone should have been up first for a recast it was these three IMO). They tried way too hard to drum up drama between Ashley and Derek and the actors were clearly fighting for their mediocre charisma less acting lives to make it work but none of it landed, just horrible. Naomi and Jacob and this weird homeless woman story are also BORING. I can see where its potentially going but IDGAF at all, my only hope for them is that they’re building a triangle with Naomi/Jacob/Kat because Jacob and Kat have stronger chemistry together than their current love interests (Eva is the only one who can make the awful Tomas work). Martin, his secret and still cringe worthy acting got kind of interesting with Bill dropping hints to Smitty but they completely lost me with that lil fakeout scene at the country club. The lame “teenagers” (air quotes because Samantha is no Bianca Lawson and never beating the black Andrea Zuckerman allegations) can get off my screen as well. Joey creeping on Vanessa is grossing me out at this point, I actually quite like Vanessa and Doug now but Joey falls totally flat as a villain and someone we’re supposed to buy Vanessa being enamored with. I’m glad they’ve finally set up something interesting for Vernon and Anita to do with this girl band reunion instead of Anita wringing her hands and telling us she feels darkness coming and Vernon giving a civil rights speech every episode but yeah… People who’ve posted with me for other shows know I’m not one for fast forwarding or hate watching either, if I find a majority of a show is not working I usually just quit but because of what this show represents for me as a Black male soap fan I really want to stick it out. Its just become a challenge lately. I saw Guza has left the building and I REALLY hope we hear about some more BTS changes. The additions of Tracy Thompson and Jamie Giddens don’t exactly inspire a lot of confidence from me tho. Honestly praying hard for a new EP to replace JHC, a lot of the stuff that annoyed about her PC and AMC runs has started to match up here. I’m giving the show through the Summer to rectify some things but IDK how long I can hold on tbh. Its been a struggle to even finish some of these episodes lately.
    • I agree. I liked the episode but it felt jarring to suddenly return to a bunch of plots that had been put on pause since the Nurses' Ball started. Although I did like Laura popping in at the end to tell Alexis that millions of dollars have suddenly disappeared from Ace's trust fund. One set of scenes that made me feel optimistic for the next few months were between Sofia Mattsson and Rory Gibson. While Rory has been good as a darker, colder Michael this week, I was worried that he might not have much range. But he really warmed up with Mattsson, and I thought that (for the first time) Michael and Sasha had some genuine chemistry.
