It's not wrong to hope.  It would be wrong to believe because that would never happen.  Carly, Sonny, and Joss would survive the apocalypse. 

@titan1978floated Cam as the hook.  I haven't watched today's episode, but is that possible?

I had no idea that Michael and Willow weren't married lol.  I was wondering why he was proposing again.  I guess I forgot they got divorced and she pity married Chase.  I must have wiped that from my memory.

Tuesday's episode was such a roller coaster ride.  I was sad to see Britt leave, then happy when she was beating the hook killer, even happier when she came back to Liesl and decided stay in Port Charles, then sad to realize she got nicked by the poisoned hook and may die on that fainting cliffhanger. 

Kelly Thiebaud is so reminiscent of Kristian Alfonso, Vanessa Marcil, Lisa Peluso, Robin Strasser, Susan Lucci...you just can't have a good American soap without a beautiful, brunette central character straddling the line of heroine and anti-hero.  They better not kill off Britt!

The Nic, Spencer, Liz and Esme story is so fun.  I hope Esme feigns amnesia next!

I thought they were married too. It's a shame they haven't been during all of this drama. I like when characters are dealing with issues as a married couple. I also like longer marriages on soaps.

Is Britt actually leaving the show? I figured last week would be Kelly's last day or today that the hook would get her.

Kelly reminds me of none of those actresses lol.  She has none of any of those ladies' charisma or likability and I suspect Britt will just be a footnote in GH's history.  I do know a lot of people seem to share your opinion, but I just don't see myself and I have tried.   I must be missing something lol.

It's seems so silly to push Michael/Willow together and have them get married, then have them divorce, have her fake marry Chase, and then have Michael/Willow marry for real in a relative short period of time.  I guess it is just a way to stall for a big wedding later on or something.

I feel like Britt's exit story has been going on for eons now.  It has to be ending soon.  I feel like we heard about KT's departure 6 months ago.

If this is the real Hooker that has been revealed, then I am disappointed.

Regardless of whether on not one is a fan of the character, it was a disappointing ending for Brit, because it has nothing to do with the health concerns that have driven her story for months.

Not only is the person revealed a fairly peripheral character, but it doesn't logically make sense that someone of that age could pull off these very physical acts, have access to the resources, as well as have the knowledge about the types of coats that Esme owns.  I am mildly intrigued to hear the explanation of the motive for the crimes, but I am not amused.

Still sticking by that Heather is not the hook but wants to take suspicion off Esme

I can believe that Heather very easily could escape Spring Ridge but not Darkam were she was when the attacks began in Late August

 

I also feel that Heather is Maggie, Esme's Nanny. I can see Heather lying about who she was to the adoptive folks so she could have access to her daughter.

Did they explain clearly how Heather and Ryan Chamberlain got together? Those are scenes I'd like to see if there's a date and it's on Hulu.

She's done it before: The Taylors. They knew her, but they didn't know her connection to their son.

That's more of the aftermath of their first meeting which was this...the date is attached, but I'm not sure if it has hit that point of deletion on Hulu as of yet so apologies for the quality.

So Joss gets a second chance at life and the first thing she does is cheat on her boyfriend? Well, at least people understood when I said I hoped she got hooked. She really is GH’s Alex Kiriakis.

I hope Cam sticks around and is given a romantic interest that actually appreciates him and I hope he gets the chance to tell Joss what a selfish, ungrateful whore she is. 

Speaking of the hook, if it really does turn out to be Heather, that is a total letdown.

As for Esme, it appears that the GH writers once again didn’t understand the geography of NY. Do they not realize how cold it is, in the Great Lakes Region, in January?

Esme never would have made it to shore before the hypothermia killed her. 

And poor Britt, they can’t just let her leave Port Charles in peace?

I like Britt. They and KT really invested a lot in the character and gave her a lot of character traits and vulnerabilities that she didn’t have in her first few years. I imagine what she would have become if Ron Carlivati had remained at the helm

But it always seemed like someone interfered in her storyline. 3 guesses who?

Nah. Sweet Cam’s not the hook

And yeah, I totally forgot that Michael and Willow aren’t married either

    • the tweet linked to https://www.forbes.com/sites/marcberman1/2025/05/02/ruth-buzzi-dies-the-rowan--martin-laugh-in-star-was-88/ That Forbes account of Ruth Buzzi said she'd had Alzheimer's for 10 years? -- they are quoting her facebook as saying that. But her facebook says this: Ruth Buzzi  July 24, 1936 – May 1, 2025 Ruth Buzzi died peacefully in her sleep at home in Texas. She was in hospice care for several years with Alzheimer’s disease. Memorial arrangements by Lacy Funeral Home, Stephenville, Texas to be announced. Her family requests donating to Alzheimer’s research (www.alz.org) in lieu of flowers. https://www.facebook.com/RealRuthBuzzi/posts/pfbid031y2oHoqXMuMCSZg1RToxEVH37UZCvGmrp6JhGBQXoGCv3X6mwouwxATxHF5PtvTJl  But she was tweeting a couple of years ago...  There's more info on @slick jones page here https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/55788-soap-hoppers-the-soap-actors-and-roles-thread/page/380/#comment-1869080 A few hours before her death was announced, her husband posted onto her facebook this: https://www.facebook.com/RealRuthBuzzi/posts/pfbid02hxSLCXSKM62DHE72RFXeY8s8M4PXeAcDJGkhfnTLKVNVpZqSYmAREpr7W7RgDhUzl This is Ruth Buzzi‘s husband writing on her page.  She asked me to thank all of you for being so good to her for so many years.  She wants you to know she probably had more fun doing those shows than you had watching them.    Because of health issues, she’s must withdraw from writing, but she will still be reading and enjoying your posts.   If you've met Ruthie and had a picture taken with her, please post it below.   If you have a great memory from her career that you enjoyed — a special comedy sketch, or a moment that made you laugh — share that with us. Ruthie loves you. --------------
    • Link to the official announcement on her Facebook account: https://www.facebook.com/100052018909496/posts/pfbid031y2oHoqXMuMCSZg1RToxEVH37UZCvGmrp6JhGBQXoGCv3X6mwouwxATxHF5PtvTJl/?app=fbl
    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
