GH May 2021 Discussion

Yep. I'm not one to go gaga over any of Jason's pairings, but the stuff with Britt is really working so far. Jason is FINALLY doing something different. JaSam are so played out and have the same boring storylines over and over again. It's time to move on. And we are. And it's been good. Yesterday, for the first time ever, as I turned on the episode, I actually found myself hoping that Jason would be on.

 

I laughed when they switched from the Jason/Britt love scene to Chase/Michael/Willow. Take about a buzzkill.

 

Elijah was a more threatening villain today than Cyrus has been during his entire run.

Aside from the fact the Chase/Willow/Michael stuff is horribly written, KM and CD are choosing to make Willow/Michael the most awkward people on the planet.  Chase may be ill, but is he blind and unable to process obvious social cues?  Everyone in the room acts visibly uncomfortable the entire time they interact with Chase.  I mean, the man's not an idiot.  At least Brook brought that up.  If the two of them can't even pretend to act like normal humans why are they going along with the stupid plan?  It's truly the weakest link in what is a pretty good show right now.

I'm going to keep saying it every day. Britt and Jason are fantastic. Their chemistry is great and I'm enjoying the scenes of them just talking and getting to know each other. Burton is checked in for once and I'm loving it. I can't wait for the people of Port Charles to find out that they're a thing.

 

Sam and Dante, on the other hand, are just okay to me. I'm not opposed to the idea of them together, but I'm not seeing any great chemistry with them. Their scenes also felt sort of out of place today because everything else was Peter/Cyrus related, then there's Sam and Dante arguing about softball.

 

Not that I liked Franco, but what was the point in killing him off just to immediately turn around and bring RH back as another character? It's so stupid. I literally groaned when he showed up today. Are we supposed to be ignoring that he looks like Franco? Apparently. RH acts the same way no matter who he's playing.

I'm still behind but I did watch these scenes and it's nice to see Burton as checked in as he can be. He even had some life to him in the preview I saw for Monday's episode.

 

It's hilarious seeing Jasam fans go nuts on Twitter. Best thing ever was finally ending them and putting Sam and Jason in different obrits (while still involved with each other as story dictates).

 

I like Sam with Dante. I think they're going for a bit more slow burn (as much as they 'slow burn' these days) with them than Jason and Britt. I need a bit more from Sam/Dante but they have potential. I don't see crazy chemistry but I like them together.

 

Speaking of Twitter, it's also amusing to see the stans of the awful couples that were finally broken up having a fit. Not every damn couple you ship is 'endgame'. Lord. LOL.

Oh and I wanted to add, someone at GH is showing their hand regarding Herbst. The Liz stans are all over it. I HATED "Friz" but why on earth was Liz an extra in her own story and now just propping Finn? Like, really? There's so many more ways that Liz could be involved but they don't bother. Does Frank lowkey hate her? I know he went to the School of Frons but lord ... it's blatant how misused she is (and has been for YEARS)

 

And gee, she suddenly pops back up when Howarth does. I'm so tired of her airtime and others being dictated by the pets they prop.

 

Meanwhile, I have 0 interests in Howarth having yet another character on this show when the cast is bloated and they don't use most of them very well. 

 

I will say I'm falling behind but I still have more interest in GH, for what it's worth, than the other three at the moment.

Awfully pasty,,,,,,  Especially for one that jogs daily.....     O_O 

This poor girl got wrung through the wringer in this couple of days.  She sure is a good sport!

 

 

As opposed to this dull as dishwater character

 

Can she please contract what Chase has... Then Michael and Chase can have grief sex.     

 

Oh gee, blood on the floor and my daughter's car isn't here.....  I should go in...

 

 

 

 

 

Instead of filling the Quartermaine mansion with random people around town, maybe this guy and his kids should be staying there...

 

Cuz he could still get it!!!!!   Come to think of it, Bobbie and Lucy both have no love interest    I see a c-story right there.

 

 

Hope doesn't ask her to braid that mop-looking hair of his after she ends up sewing up that bullet wound.    STILL NOT REMOTELY SCARY!!!!      I expect him to yell Mommy when she tries to get that bullet out!

 

@KMan101

I noticed Elizabeth back on screen at the same time Dr. Pasty showed up.    They need to release her from that albatross and give her a decent storyline-- a man isn't the first priority she needs, an interesting storyline is.  And F*ck #firefrank for relegating her to propping his friends.  This will be her 24th anniversary this year.  Give her something that shows off her Chops!!!!!     She's been rockin' the Mama Bear routine.

 

Trina, Joss and Cam need love interests/ friends to fill a teen set. It is ridiculous that they have no contact with anyone but each other on-screen.

    • Laugh-In was also before my time, but I loved watching her when Nick at Nite and TV Land ran repeats. She was also on Sesame Street for years. So vibrant. One of those people I've never heard bad word of. Sorry to hear that.
    • Amazing resource. Thank you! I'm pretty confident that she's worn it before. I'll look into it. That or I'm having some serious deja vu. 
    • Other than Soapnet I am trying to remember if I ever even saw it in syndication. I know I saw Dallas, Knots and Dynasty in syndication before Soapnet.
    • Dani's dress  https://wornontv.net/511259/ Brand page: https://onalaja.com/en-us/products/zusi-maxim-dress about the company: https://onalaja.com/en-us/pages/brand-story I don't think she has worn it before, this is her wardrobe so far: https://wornontv.net/beyond-the-gates/dani-dupree/
    • The preemptions helped me catch up. Watched the last two episodes today. Obviously fantastic stuff. Martin's acting was really great when he was confronting Ted. He's finally clickin. The look on Naomi and Chelsea's faces when Silk Press talked about Bill... but was she telling the truth? This does explain what I always wondered which is why Silk Press didn't just sue for child support. Hayley all scandalized that Ted had an affair like she isn't a ho. Vanessa all scandalized that Ted had an affair like she isn't a ho, and Doug being like "ummm... ?" but Vanessa having kind of a point, and this setting up a good dynamic that Doug isn't that cool with the arrangement (and, the B&B of it all, with the A storyline going and the B characters sitting around talking about it). That guy popping up to say "that much is true!" about Eva being locked in the closet. Nicole's understated acting and Eva's emotion. Ted not being able to handle Eva at the moment, but you get the sense he's not closed off to her completely. Andre and Eva's unexpected bonding was nice. The point made to Dani that she shouldn't be upset because Ted technically did what she wanted from Bill which was to recommit himself to the family after the affair.  
    • Also, where has Dani worn this dress before? I recognize it, because the first time she had it on I was like why is my girl wearing party streamers. Then when I saw it yesterday, I was a little surprised that they were having Dani who pulls out 4 episodes in a single episode repeat a outfit so soon.

    • Claybon was okay. He has slightly improved, but he still needs more improvement.
    • I'd forgotten Milli and Ponzini were at AW. Ponzini would definitely qualify as a big success in his move over.  I do wonder how that came across, especially early on. Just from reading the story details it seems a bit like there wasn't much of a background for Pat beyond setting up the story with Tony and their secret child. But Jacqueline is such a strong presence, and the audience clearly embraced her. A shame AW never tried the second time around.
    • I do think Claybon has improved, but I still don't think he's anywhere near good. It may be his tone, which makes things come across as if he's narrating rather than dialoguing. I didn't even think his scene with Ted was very good although some seemed to disagree.  As for Maurice, I can only speak for myself. I mentioned Maurice as one of the weak actors along with the actors that play Chelsea, Naomi, and Martin from day one. That for me hasn't changed. I warmed to Maurice, because I thought he was improving in the good dad/husband stuff he was doing. I still don't want the actor to be replaced, which I have mentioned before as well. However, today confirmed what I said all those weeks ago that he's not the most skilled actors on the cast. He really struggled to get the emotion in those scenes today.
