General Hospital: March 2023 Discussion Thread

I think Amanda Setton is just fine as Brook Lynn. The writing for her and Chase is at fault. When she’s given the material, she’s good.

I have bigger problems with other characters, like Maxie, who has become annoying beyond belief. I also can’t stand Esme, who’s being redeemed in a flash for no reason, and who I’d rather see written off with that ginormous baby.

I just wish they'd end the whole Linc thing, it has been going on for over three years now. Ok, granted there was a near two year gap in the middle before they picked it up again, but it just highlights how stuck Chase and Brook Lynn are.

I do think that Victor could very well exit in the summer.  I love CS but Victor needs a rest

That was a great Interview

Those pics are well done

I also think that Sprina play a big part alongside Laura in the Story that starts after the 60th that comes from an old GH adventure of the 80's (Guessing Ice Princess again, but hopefully done better than in 2013)

Ok all this Joss propping is ridiculous now. Ron Carlivati wouldn't even do this.

I don't think I've ever been this disappointed in Laura. She's the grandmother, for f*ck's sake

 She should be beating Joss' ass more than Liz should.

I know my grandmothers would have

Like I keep saying: 'Good' characters are rarely allowed to just cheat or have affairs (let alone just fùck because they want to) anymore. They have to scramble and pretend Joss did not cheat on her boyfriend on the way out the door.

For what? Is it really that serious? Sure, Joss is a polarizing and overpropped character, but she's not some whore; she is a young, confused woman who slept with a man not her boyfriend hours before breaking up with him. It was a bad thing to do but it's not the end of the world. Why pretend it didn't happen? Why is the show so overly concerned about it? Joss doesn't need to be a saint. Saints on soaps are boring.

I can’t really be too upset with Laura- someone who was deeply flawed and while her therapy happened off camera, Genie plays her with empathy towards the younger characters that make mistakes similar to the ones she made.

But there is a fine line towards propping and this show crosses it all the time.

Did anyone do a DNA test with to verify that Esme is really Ryan's daughter?
They probably have Kevin's DNA on file, but even if they don't, they could simply check Kevin whose DNA would be close enough. (Sorry I don't know the science for twins but you get the idea).
(I watch intermittently so I don't know whether they did a DNA test or not).

And was she tested with Heather?  (Of course Heather would change any results but did they try?)

No one knows that Joss cheated on Cam other than Joss, Cam, and Carly (and I think Spencer).

Those do look great. Though trying to make everyone about the same height was a…choice. NC is nearly a foot taller than Tabyana lol.

Speaking of, that TVInsider interview was great, I can’t wait for actual couple shít with Sprina to kick off already.

Idk, Laura might have a few choice words if she knew Joss cheated, but Laura is a wise woman.  She'd just know Cameron was better off without her in the long run.   It was young love and things like that happen.  Cam gets to go to Stanford and Joss gets to date a guy who keeps getting shot while trying to take down Sonny at a snails pace with her brother.  Cam is still the winner here.  He might be hurt, but Joss wasn't good enough for him in the first place lol.

    • 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.
