I get what everyone is saying because no, this isn’t going to be the next Kim K sex tape that launches fame. But in a small town and in a school setting of course it’s damaging. And we were made to believe you could see them completely nude so what they showed us as the audience isn’t supposed to be what the whole of the clip showed. 

There’s a reason revenge porn like this is against the law now and it’s because it’s incredibly damaging and traumatizing to the victims. I don’t like Joss but I think they’ve shown this fallout in a very real way. It would have been better to do this while they were still in high school but the show is weird about this teen group.

I get your point.  I guess I should have said I can't bring myself to care

.  Joss/Cam do have a right to be upset.  It's just not the end of the world they are making it out to be.  It's a sex tape between two adults in a committed relationship.  It's embarrassing, but it's not overly raunchy or dirty (I don't think lol).

I think PC is at least a medium size town.  Any town with an international airport and college isn't small lol.  I always assumed it was similar in size to Buffalo/Rochester.

You know Albany does sound about right actually.  I think any vaguely populated upstate New York town works.  It's not like Lake Placid, but Albany, Rochester, Buffalo all fit the bill.  I don't think it's like Salem USA that grew into a more "populated" town throughout the years.  I always thought PC was a medium sized city.

I really don’t think it matters if PC is small or medium sized, at least not for the point I was making. I went to a large state public school in the same area and still would have been traumatized if this had happened to me. It was their first time having sex and all their classmates saw it? Come on there’s no need to diminish that just cause Joss is an insufferable mini beast.

Sorry!  I wasn't personally trying to diminish your point, which is valid.  I just think @Khan  and I were saying we thought PC was a larger town.

Anyhow, Lol! at Joss being a mini beast.  I don't even think Joss is that annoying just very, very boring.  She literally has the worst characteristics of Jax/Carly and that's saying a lot.  I just don't feel bad for her.  If it happened to me, sure, it would be awful.  But her crying about it is lame.   I would rather she owns it and starts selling those tapes herself for profit.  Joss has been through a ton in her lifetime.  This feels like small potatoes compared to half the things that have happened to her.

OMG!!!! HE SPOKE!!!! Does @Ryan Chamberlain know their guy is on the move anew?

 

To think that I was just talking about at the beginning at the week/last week that GH has been good, but it still had some stories that needed to be touched on. And this week has been ALL about the stories that they needed to be touched on.

 

THE DREW BRAINWASHING LOOSE END TO VICTOR. BOOM!!! Here comes Peter's box!!! While I rolled my eyes as hard as Britt did when it arrived, if it's a good way to use it to advance the loose end of why Victor wants Drew...GOOD. And I like the teamup of Laura, Sam, and Drew against Victor. However, I do feel that it will be used to booster up a Dante/Sam/Drew triangle, it is good to see the story moving along.

 

ESME'S CONNECTIONG TO RYAN. After alllllllllllllllllll of that teasing...THAT was it? I think we called that a while ago, but it did give a few new questions. And none of the expected took away from the great reveal scenes between Esme and Ryan. So Ryan WAS behind the stalking all along? And it is still ALL ABOUT AVA. And he's FAKING it? Oooooo...the possibilities. And now that we are talking about the Nik/Ava renewal more frequently...I think we can already tell what the next big event will finally be. My only question is...will they build to May Sweeps with that or is that an April event? PS. Great reveal scenes, but also creepy.

 

MARSHALL'S STORY. Honestly...the only story that is not moving as organically as the other two above is this. It definitely has been pull and push. And I thought the reason for that at first has been Aunt Stella not being there. But she's been back for months and still NOTHING. So...now Jordan is back so I wonder if this story will be next dragged out story to FINALLY get some more movement. 

 

Other things...

 

Wow @carolineg. I see TempHarmony and she really does move like Kristen Davis. I agree.

 

I knew it was coming when she lost the baby. But...Sasha is back on drugs. While I wonder where it will go with her, this C plot of the elopement is getting waaaaay too much time. That said...I agree with Gladys (I know shocking) that it is too soon for them to elope and she is speaking nothing but common sense.

 

Hm. Sonny and Nina already acting like a couple without even being a couple yet. Not hating on it at all. And already getting their next story with them vs Michael/Willow and that buildin conflict...not to mention Cujo...I mean Carly.

 

Speaking of new stories...I see Felicia is getting hers. Not only some Victor drama, but disapproving mama over Maxie/Austin...who I don't mind at all. But that could be because that keeps Austin away from characters I like. lol.

 

ETA: I almost forgot...that teen story took a turn reeeeal quick. But I'm not sure...yet...if it is plausible that Cam or Joss would even think Trina was behind it. The fact that Joss is seeing through Esme's bs I liked. All she was missing was to give Esme a good ole Carly slap.

    • I think maybe viewers needed a break from Aaron Spelling by 1985 or 1986. He had a series, Macgruder and Loud, which I recall, even as a young teen, getting TONS of promotion with even a post-Super Bowl slot, and it failed. Viewers probably were - as said here - tired of soapy fare and went elsewhere. But they must have missed him since, as we know, Spelling rose from the TV ashes in the '90s with Beverly Hills 90210 and Melrose Place!
    • I’ve been enjoying the pace the show has taken recently. Things don’t languish as long as they have and if they are drawing something out, like Gio’s adoption, it’s hasn’t been as excruciating. Also, my nosey nature would appreciate less interaction with posters I have on ignore so I don’t have to click on “options”.

    • Okay...I'm just going to call it. Ambyr Michelle is the breakout star of this show with the young set hands down! There is no character like Eva that pulls my heart strings, and she's playing it perfectly. If Eva and Leslie are on, it's a good episode! If written properly, Eva and Kat's rivalry is one that could go on for YEARS. Of course, it's fun to speculate about who is really whom, but I could see them developing as frenemies after some time. They really need a guy to tussle over to amp it up. Tomas is pretty, but the actor has got to loosen up some in his scenes, I think. He is improving though. It would be good to introduce a new young man in that story for a foursome.  Martin and Smitty finally feel like a real couple to me, too. Hopefully, they locked them into four year contracts.
    • I'll be that guy and say I don't think TMG is a fool. This is a popular contract role on a year-round soap opera for a woman of a certain age (to say nothing of a woman of color). If I'm her I pull a Kimberlin Brown and ride this til the wheels fall off.
    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not.
