General Hospital: March 2023 Discussion Thread

The Epiphany tribute was great. I liked how they let the news trickle in instead of outright saying her cause of death, (until the funeral). Elizabeth as the lead was great. In some ways this was the 25th anniversary special episode she didn't get. 

This gives me hope that the 60th Anniversary show will be well done.

Why Y&R is still #1, I have no clue. It's just been let down after let down on that show with the only good episodes being the actor anniversary specials. Their 50th was just was as underwhelming as DAYS'.

Fan campaigns? In 2023? This is crazy, most soap couples are out here holding onto the ghost of their popularity from 20-40 years ago and we have a brand new couple with fans who care enough to get an ad in Times Square. Crazy!

The slow movement of their story has the side effect of only galvanizing their fanbase. Plus you have two young charismatic actors who know how to use social media and engage with their audience. Plus GH despite low ratings still has more cultural cache than the other soaps left on the air.

It is a waste.  They’re spending their money on stupid stuff.  They’re spending it on a billboard for a (teen, young —whatever) couple on a soap opera.  I know these are grown women and some men who have bills to pay.  Aren’t these the same fools who got the plane, too?  Come on.  

What is the point of doing such nonsense?  It’s not going to be on the news.  I’m watching David Muir right now.  He didn’t mention it.

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time. 
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.
