GENERAL HOSPITAL July 2022 Discussion Thread

Britt and Cody have no chemistry whatsoever. I was really looking forward to Trina's trial. But so far, it's so bland peppered with some interesting moments. Esme and Ryan continue to be a dastardly father and daughter duo. I wonder who Esme mother is? But i bet the writers don't know either. 

[Dion]

I'm just grateful that her mother does not appear to be Felicia.

[David_Vickers]

VERY HAPPY ABOUT THIS TOO!   That's why I put it in all caps, got to shout it since I'm so happy. I really hope no-one on GH is her mother, and I really don't care now that we ever know who her mother is.  If anyone, I'd pick Olivia Jerome, Jennifer Smith, Heather Webber or Julie Devlin from Port Charles as her mother.

I just hope they don't rewrite history when it comes to Esme's mother. Didn't Kevin say he had Ryan locked up in a sanitarium ever since he "died" at the funhouse?

[reallyhateskateonlost]

Go Ava.

Rip Esme's hair out!

[cassadine1991]

IIRC, Ryan got recruited by the DVX

[BrendaB]

Esme is driving so much fun story on this show.  Love seeing Ava & Nikolas' marriage exploding!  Can't wait to see who Esme's mother is and how Laura & Kevin get sucked into it the plot once Ryan finally escapes.  It'd be especially hilarious if somehow Ava ends up being Esme's mother

but there's a bunch of other possibilities given Ryan's sordid history.  I don't think they've even explained how Esme found out or knows for sure Ryan is her father?  She could end up being Kevin & Lucy's long lost kid, for all we know, once she inevitably reforms from being the show's primary young villain.

I don't know why anyone's surprised about the court case being a bore, I always expected it to be as boring as the last one on this show.  It's like the lowest-stakes, most convoluted things going to court ("revenge porn" being pinned on a heroine that'll get exonerated because there's such paper-thin evidence, "kidnapping" charged on another flawed heroine that didn't actually do any kidnapping and just withheld identifying information, and in both cases with the "victim" testifying for the defendant!  This show has the dumbest fictional prosecutors and judges for even allowing these meritless cases going to trial ).

What would be crazier right now? Esme being Felicia's kid or Felicia Getting Pregnant? 

[AbcNbc247]

Yeah... Nicholas Alexander Chavez definitely has a bright future ahead of him. We'll be hearing his name for years to come.

[victoria foxton]

Totally agree. 

 

NAC along with MW, AKP and TA are elevating Trina's lackluster trial. I'm finding GH at the moment extremely bland and generic. It's pretty much Spencer, Trina and Esme that keep me watching.

[AbcNbc247]

Yeah, I don't get it. So much happens, but at the same time it seems so boring. They were all so good today, yet I felt I should have been glued to the TV more.

Thanks. That actually does sound familiar. I just wonder when that was to have happened.

Brando. TJ (ESPECIALLY!!! hehe). Cody. Dante (woof!). Someone is trying to get all the sauna time in as they can! I'm not complaining! lol.

 

Playing catch-up. The trial for Trina is off to a slow start and I want to shake Joss. 

 

I've been enjoying seeing the Rory/Trina/Spencer triangle develop. And I'm happy for that because now that Spencer saw Rory and Trina kiss, he's finally started to be more pro-active like how he was when he came back to town rather than a wounded puppy. Watching him vs Esme and I'm thinking FINALLY!!! When he was Ava's stalker, he was more cunning. And it's about time the writers remembered that as he presses Esme. 

 

Nina as owner of Metro Court. I bet Carly is PO.

 

Sad Laura is gone.  But...perfect time for the House of Cassandine to fall apart.

 

Yeeeah not feeling Britt/Cody. Too forced for me. And I still feel that the writers are going to tie Cody into a legacy family.

Who does this heffa think she's messing with? lol. 

 

Well, playing catch-up and it feels like...barring a trump card a la 90s Sami Brady...Esme is being written into a corner. I was at least expecting said trump card, but I saw the writing on the wall when all of a sudden Joss had scenes with Michael's mole. I was hoping in the fallout from Esme being exposed that she would be thrown in Joss/Cam's orbit, but it looks like she will be dead if anything.

 

I agree with who said it. The trial itself has been boring. But everything surrounding it to get to the truth has been good. Esme drugging the guy. Curtis on the case. How the whole thing is increasing the Spencer/Trina/Rory triangle. 

 

Outside of that, there is not really much B plot going on since Trina IS the A story and it's all over this week. I guess I could say the Carly/Sonny/Nina triangle...which appears to be more or less settled now with subplot complications here and there. 

 

And there's Britt/Cody. But I'm meh on that.
