General Hospital: March 2023 Discussion Thread

Aww...bummer that Cameron's going to college in California.  I guess the actor is going recurring (or was he already recurring)?  The actor has the best hair of anyone on GH.  Those gorgeous highlights, the luster, the length, the part is perfect-- like the best of the 1990s teen heartthrob hair!

  He needs to share his hair style and health secrets with the rest of the cast.  The adult Spencer actor's hair has gone from great to worse the longer he's been on the show.  I'm surprised Uncle Victor didn't drag Scotty's wild hair amongst the list of insults he spouted to Leisl today.

Funny how Esme's alarmed that everyone's an enemy in the custody battle, but does she not know her lawyer is Laura's brother (hired by Nicolas)?  He's the one that filed the paperwork to send his great-nephew, the adorable baby Ace, to jail with Esme.  

The episodes with Laura & Esme are so much better than the episodes without them like yesterday's dull episode with Willow.  Willow hating Nina in a deep-seated way like that doesn't even make sense and never did.  Harmony's deathbed reason to lie about it made even less sense.  Such low-stakes weirdness and making conflict out of nothing, like the insider trading nonsense between Carly & Ryan.  They need to resurrect the ghost of Nelle to haunt Willow, Nina, Carly to death or D'archem so they spend some time behind bars with Heather.

Ugh. Carly and Drew is her worst pairing in 25 years. They are so corny, goofy, and sappy. Not to mention boring and pointless in the once a month talking about this non story of theirs. I really hate them as much as the last rendition of Carson and Jarly. Carly's character doesn't work with a Dudley Do Right. They need to recast Jax to start off a CarJax reunion. He will get knee deep into this Joss and Dex romance (+Michael's role in it to ruin Sonny) to get her involved in a real story again. Carly is a waste of screen time right now cause she is not doing a thing except sitting around all day. CM is so terrible on GH. It's time to move on back to Hallmark movies. He came off like a game show host at the Portis and Curtis wedding reception doing the intros like it was the Super Bowl. He was so OTT in the worst way. Good guy. Bad recast. 

Is there any news on VM coming back as Brenda for the Nurses Ball/60th? I like Sonny more with Nina than Carly. MB has better chemistry with CW than LW. I still want Brenda back for Sonny at some point. I would love even a visit for a week. They were the last real supercouple on GH

 on this board, I can pretty safely say Brenda will not be back for the 60th.  I haven't seen anything that indicates she will be back anytime soon.  Probably one day though.  Agree with you about Brenda/Sonny though even if I find Sonny unlikeable and exhausting 99.9% of the time.

You have to be doing this on purpose at this point. It's pretty funny, I can't lie.

Looks like it.

I really enjoyed Liz and Cam's scene yesterday. His disappoint in her seemed authentic to the fact that they're both good people. And I think it was RH's best performance since I started watching again.

Every time I see Tatyana Ali I think "she's so beautiful", it's like I'm surprised.

Genie Francis and Nicholas Chavez bring out something really special in each other. She's lucked out with the casting for most of her kids and grandkids.

 I'm filled with questions. I'm a GH newbie and when I started, the show was busy yet intriguing. I'm trying to grasp the names of the characters. For example, I have no clue who Sam is in a relationship with. All I know is that he's a detective and he's short.

It's a battle, but I enjoy watching it.

He's Dante Falconeri, Sonny's (the elderly mob boss who mumbles a lot) long lost son. They don't interact much. He (Dante) was married to Lulu Spencer, the daughter of Laura Spencer (the mayor), who is now in a coma. He's been in a very dull relationship with Sam for at least a year now. Sam used to be involved with Sonny 20 years ago, she had his kid and everything. Long story.

The kid is dead, to be clear. Died not long after birth. Sam struggled to conceive for years; her two anonymous children are Danny and Scout. Danny is the child of Sonny's presumed dead right hand enforcer, Jason Morgan, once the central 'hero' of this show who absolutely everything spun around (along with Sonny) for decades until his right-wing evangelical actor, Steve Burton, refused to abide by the network's COVID vaccine mandate and quit/was fired in late 2021. Don't hold your breath on ABC not buckling and bringing him back.

Sam's unnecessary and often forgotten daughter, Scout, is the child of Drew Cain (now played by Cameron Mathison), Jason's secret long-lost twin who was brainwashed by evil villains to believe he was Jason and who Sam and co. also believed was Jason for several years. Don't ask.

God, I thought Nathan Varni was long gone.

Gladys' gambling debts and her selling the garage are just as pointless as the SEC crap. There's no purpose for her character anymore. 

And just a reminder, if by some miracle Joss ever gets killed off, I'm gonna celebrate on here like y'all wouldn't believe

    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
    • I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

    • I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980. 
    • terrible at using forums and inserting photos, but jake in another world had a drag persona named doris, anyone know the episode or year? http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/ffad19.jpg
    • Yes, I am familiar with Fred Silverman. Agree, the 90 minute AW a very poor decision by Silverman. I think Silverman was behind the decision to go with Texas.
    • Thanks -- you're doing God's work The Gio reveal was everything I hoped for and more. GH got it right. Head to toe, GM is a stunning physical specimen.
    • I really wonder how they'll handle Netflix's usual long breaks between seasons. That girl is going to grow up fast... makes me wonder if this wouldn't have been a better fit for HBO Max considering they're leaning into a more broadcast style of production model with The Pitt.
    • I agree -- I didn't suspect Ted, either. I think a lot of people are giving themselves way too much credit in predicting Ted's problems

      And can I have a different take on Ted here? Yes, he's made a huge mistake with this Leslie debacle, and yes, he has to suffer and pay for it. But does that make Ted a terrible human being? I don't think it does. He made a horrific mistake over 2 decades ago, and as far as we know, he's been a good husband and father since. As far as we know, he hasn't strayed or violated his marriage since. He didn't know that he fathered another child, and thought he "removed" Leslie from his life. I won't blame Nicole if she doesn't forgive him, but I also won't blame her if she decides what they have and what they've had more than makes up for what he did. Ted is getting dragged far more than Bill is on these boards, and I think Bill is MUCH worse as a husband and father. How many times did he cheat on Dani during their marriage? How many times did he do vile things in his role as fixer? How much did he hurt his daughters by screwing their friend and marrying her? With Keith Robinson coming in as Ted, maybe we'll see a character change in direction and we'll discover that Ted has many flaws and always had a dark side. For now, though, I'm inclined to both be angry with Ted for hurting his family while also sympathizing with him. I know what you mean, but I do think that was intentional. So much was going on in that episode, and I think they decided not to let Nicole's reaction be lost in all that. Nicole will get those scenes that you're asking for.  
    • That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

    • Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.
