GH March 2021 Discussion

[victoria foxton]

Gladys is a hoot. She's trashy and messy. She stirs it up. So many of the characters are so BLAND.

 

 

 

 So glad this is finally kicking into high gear. Those scenes of Saint Sonny/Mike at Tan-o's. With his new found BFF's are unbearable. I'm hoping Nina breaks Sonny's heart.

I hope they go there with Nina and Sonny. I don't need them sleeping together but you know they probably will. I want it messy. I feel like Valentini is still afraid to let the show truly be as messy as it could be lol. So many Stanco stans have been whining about the "miserable" show (and all of the so-called couples busted up were awful and chemistry free). I mean, they would never have survived Frons era GH. Or the 80s on any soap.

 

I only bring up the stans because whenever I seem to have any interest in the show, the stans don't and the show seems to end up catering to those loud and vocal stans who have no idea how a soap works.

Yeah I think everyone knew that was coming lol

[Ponds]

Yes, and Sonny will impregnate the poor barren Nina!

[KMan101]

 

lol for sure. It NEEDED to go in that direction. We'll see how they handle it, however ...

 

BRING ON THE MESSINESS! lol!

I' sure Maura West would appreciate such kind words while she's polishing her Emmys and reminiscing about her many nominations.  She's always been fantastic.  When you consider how often during her ATWT run the stories were crappy (don't forget Denise DiMuccio on GH oy!), yet she never phoned it in like RoHo has throughout Paul and ALL  of his time on GH.  He definitely stopped caring and was there for his ATM withdrawals.  RoHo's stans are the only reason he's been working. Bringing him back will just be more garbage.  There's a reason shows didn't cast actors that previously appeared on them in different roles without a few years between.......

Yep, I'm not a fan of Nina but I'm here for her finding out Sonny's alive and keeping it from Carly as revenge. Finally something interesting is happening. I'm just glad that anything at all is happening with this Sonny story finally. It feels like it's been months of Sonny hanging out with Phyllis and Lenny (and I actually like them but it's time for something to happen).

 

Also random but I'm pretty sure I saw the guy who plays Brando (Johnny Wacker or whatever his porn-sounding name is) in a commercial for the Gardisil HPV vaccine.

I could give a rat's ass about Nina and "her legacy" but I'm so here for it, lol. Like you said, something interesting. 

 

I like Phyllis and Lenny too but it's been repetitive. Sonny acts strange, Lenny gets concerned, Phyllis talks him down, cop comes in, wash rinse repeat. LOL.

[slick jones]

Yep, that's him in the Gardisil commercial.  it ran during GH here about a week ago and my sister said "Oooh watch out Sasha-- HPV!"

 

[KMan101]

 

lmao, yep, that's him 

[Faulkner]

Ha, I saw that ad this afternoon too.

I happened to be looking at the Emmy records just this week and Maura is tied in fourth for number of wins with Heather Tom and Helen Gallagher (three wins). The first (Erika Slezak with six wins), second and third (Susan Flannery and Kim Zimmer with four wins) are all retired so she has room to move up the rankings.

She is also tied at third in number of nominations (10) with Susan Flannery (who is retired), one fewer nomination than Kim Zimmer (who is also retired) so I wouldn't be surprised if she did move in second place within a couple of years.
Catching up to Susan Lucci's 21 will be hard though LOL but her combined record (3 wins/10 noms) definitely puts her in the top four actresses of all times with Slezak (6 wins/9 noms), Zimmer (4 wins/11 noms) and Flannery (4 wins/10 noms) and, unlike these three, she is still active with room to add to her collection.

I've been trying not to throw that out there but yeah, you know it. Sonny's wonder sperm will magically knock up Nina. I guess Snarly's reaction to it should be worth it. I'm so tired of her. I'd rather watch Cynthia Watros' Nina and her "legacy" over Laura Wright's wailing as Carly.

 

Meanwhile, it's always fun when I randomly stir up the stanbases. I threw out there that Howarth would probably play Drew with Franco's face and they are losing their minds lol. They act like the show gives a [!@#$%^&*] about Billy Miller as Drew like they do.

 

PREACH!

 

Roger was playing himself really (as Franco in the last few years). He hasn't "acted" in a very long time. He perked up when Franco had the upper hand on Peter and I almost remembered when I used to like him.

 

They wanted Todd 2.0. both times (on ATWT and GH). It didn't work.

 

ATWT had several miscasts, IMHO in their desperation to snag ABC stars (Susan Batten, Marie Wilson, Julie Pinson, Roger Howarth). How'd that work, I see ratings rose and they're still on the air -- ooops, you're not.

 

Howarth would have been better as a resurrected David Stenbeck (not that I'd really necessarily like that, but if they insisted on hiring Howarth ...). I also thought Hunt Block would have made a better Scott than Craig and would have given Lisa something to do. Anywho .... I digress like always.

This is where the show really screwed up by giving Sonny so many kids.  A Nina/Sonny baby would be soapy goodness.  It would be so much fun to watch Carly's head explode.  They should have made Avery Morgan's baby and Donna should not exist.   I would even say Kristina is useless as well.  Sonny should have only Dante, Michael, and Morgan as his kids.  Then we could have a Nina/Sonny daughter and the possibility would be left open for a Brenda/Sonny kid.  GH is the only show that has 3 supercouples with no kids (Robert/Holly, Duke/Anna, Sonny/Brenda).  It's very strange.   Why Ethan is not Robert/Holly's son astounds me to this day.  Why Brenda's rando child isn't Jax's is perplexing as well.  These stories write themselves lol.

Come on, Chase and Michael. Ignore Willow, Sasha and Brook Lynn and give each other what you both really want

I’m really liking the Britt/Maxie relationship. It was a great idea to bring Britt back and keep her on.

 

And although we all saw it coming, I am liking Nina’s story too. It’s starting to look like Nina actually has a purpose on the show for the first time in years
