General Hospital: October 2022 Discussion Thread

Just a terrible outdoor remote -- as bad as Bold and the Beautiful's.

I can't see going on location just to show a couple walking around. It's a waste, and doesn't make the show any better. National Geographic shots with people included is not my idea of good soap.

Spend the money on a nice set or on extras to fill scenes, or on a wardrobe for Maxie.

Well, I must say that they really went all out & they really went way out & they stayed out there, in the elements & it's not a bad look, I mean, Laura Wright & Carly, both of them, look great with the wind whipping that massive head of hair of hers all over her face with her completely comfortable with it as she absolutely is! Cameron doesn't look better or worse or different no matter where you set him down. He's a *just right* Ken doll with a great smile & lots of available facial expression. Letter perfect lines & looks were delivered. So we had good dialog about the location & about what Virginia thought about the beach & memory of Virginia with little Carly ... or Caroline? at the beach. And a good speech for Carly to give before delivering her cremains up to the wind at the cliff's edge up high above the water. Hey, I'm a sucker for the beach. But the thing is I was thinking ... Where's Lucy? How is Lucy? I would trade this for that. Hell, I would trade catching The Hook for that. So, I can wax euphoric about what they did at the beach to then get us to a kiss, but I don't think they got their money's worth if *I* would have made a swap for either Lucy or The Hook! Cause beach romance had a shot with me & it wouldn't have had with everybody.

After today I've decided that Charles Shaughnessey (sp?) is a much better actor than I ever thought he was in the past. Surely he is behind Lucy with a frame job on Anna as a side dish. He did a perfect imitation of someone shocked at the news & horrified. And where is Valentin when we need him? Off in Victor's plane, of course.

Yeah, Emma looks & sounds & seems great. And, her intro was actually interesting. Carly has to be done! There's nothing left. And they even kissed.

In Edit Mode: Oh no. I just saw this. According to it (and it is generalhospitalabc on IG) they're going back to the beach Monday.

What was frustrating with Spencer & Trina was that they finally had things at the right moment for them to click, right after he came through for her in a big way in court. Perfection, it would have been unfortunate for Rory but perfect in every other way. Of course, then, they couldn't have done this totally wasteful prison story. Like we need to see that drag on.

While I enjoy and welcome remotes back on GH, talk about a waste.  If I was at GH, a romantic remote like this would feature a couple people are dying to see finally get together- like Spencer and Trina.  I appreciate them giving Carly something to do that doesn’t revolve around Sonny in some way.  But this pairing isn’t worth the beautiful footage.

Exactly! My dream story would be Spencer and Trina going on the run when the truth comes out about her paternity (eye roll) She and Spencer can somehow end up in Los Angeles or somewhere that California can be used for as another state. Leading up to them admitting their feelings and getting together while Portia, Curtis, and Taggert deal with the fallout and eventual search for Trina.

    • Good Morning, this is still funny to me but I totally enjoyed what makes up "DemetriKane" so unnecessary, who cares?!!! Glad you like the Emma Peel derivative story.   
    • Christian Streaty penned today's Day's script. https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-streaty/
    • Yes, they did.  I still have them.  I think there were three.  AMC and GH as well.
    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist.
