General Hospital: August 2021 Discussion Thread

I third this.
And I'd add, as we discussed a few weeks back, that Sonny's likely resentment of what happened with Jason and Carly when he was "gone" might help fuel the messiness and why he might give the Nina flirtation more than a chance despite her betrayal.
But on paper at least it still feels like it would be somewhat out-of-character. Sonny usually would hold grudges, wouldn't he?

Now those were some pretty good cliffhangers.

 

Maxie in Nixon Falls!!!

 

BrookLynn catches Chase with the paper saying that Edward was considering changing the will. Of all the people to catch him...the one who is a mostly good friend to him. Ah, the drama!

 

And did Sonny have another memory flash. Uh oh...

Well, you all did warn me. And I still don't like Austin's flat voice either so ugh!!!

 

The writers did such a great job writing off Cyrus, Peter, and Franco. And it allowed the characters to move on and/or grow. And now Cyrus is used to write Laura and a just returned Martin out...and apparently he is going to show up. Now Peter is the first person to see Sonny....OF COURSE HE IS!!!! They need to stop trying to make 'Fetch' happen with that. And now Franco is Austin...but even drier than Franco was. Just...ugh.

 

KS looks great, but I wished we had kept Maxie a way a little while longer. 

 

I really cannot believe that Michael/Willow are sitting here trying to justify their actions. But hey, Chase suuuuure is looking good as he is going off. I'm not sure how I feel about this part of the triangle ending. It just feels too soon. That said, I liked that Brooklynn had Chase's number. I also liked Ned trying to buy Austin off. Where's Tracy when you need her?

 

REAL CHLOE LIVES!!!! BUT...why?

 

Speaking of living...I love to see Terry vs Britt continue!!!! And Ugh...Liz was wrong for that.

What's a soap without a little blackmail?

 

While I don't like Peter and don't like that the writers are letting him win by blackmailing Nina, I admit they are giving me DAYS Kate/Sami mid/late 90s vibes when they had secrets on the other and kept blackmailing each other over it leading to juicy catfights. Hahahahaha at Nina siccing Dr. Orbecht on Peter. GET HIM!!!!

 

Speaking of soapy, SHAME ON THEM!!! I liked that Willow finally expressed herself to Chase completely, but they could had ridden the Michael/Willow/Chase triangle just a little bit longer, giving the characters so much gray. That was too abrupt. I just felt they threw that out the window for more Austin mess which is currently the LEAST interesting part of the Quartermaine storylines running around. 

 

I continue to get the feeling that what we are currently watching is Jax's exit story. I just can't shake it. The clear foreshadowing with his repetitive talks with Carly. The fact Jax is becoming uncharacteristically annoying and oblivious like the real personality of the actor is coming out. And Joss's weird talk to Jason about the vibe Carly and Jax are putting out at the dinner with Cam. It's the writing on the wall. I wish I could say that I cared, but too much RL has gotten in the way of me seeing Jax as...Jax.

      I LOVED HER TOO! She was crazy but great on Desperate Housewives! And that "The Powers That Be" show in which she was John Forsythe's daughter as well! Many people she would've done a great Maris on Frasier too
    • 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.
