General Hospital: April 2023 Discussion Thread

“I’m Carly Spencer.”

Wow, when did we get this name change? She has always kept the Corinthos name no matter the divorces. And before that, she was Carly Roberts right?

I loved the Bobbie Spencer flashbacks. The only thing that sucked was the music. Every scene they featured was dramatic and heartfelt, I wish the music played to those cues. Instead it was general, apple movie music. Why drop the ball. These were east tears to claim. The hardest part was the clip selection, and they knocked it out of the park. 
 

I also loved Sonny to the rescue with Lucy. It’s rare that he gets to play into Lucy’s humour, so the juxtaposition was perfect. I guess we will get Lucy in her underwear as we deserve…

I am pretty sure Carly changed it on her Eat, Pray, Love journey to Jacksonville a while back.  It was mentioned on screen for sure.  She did originally go by Carly Roberts when she came to town. 

I have always liked the Sonny/Lucy friendship too.  Lucy does well with male friendships.  I liked her/Luke too.

I hate how inconsistent Hulu is with uploading GH timely.  There's no reason it shouldn't be available on Hulu by the time it airs on ABC for the west coast, anyways.

And, yeah, that random lawyer-turned-singer getting so much of her life story told with Carly fangirling her was ridiculous.  I wonder if that singer just has someone on the show she's connected to doing her a favor or something.  Otherwise, they could have at least gotten Angie Stone, Erykah Badu or, heck, even some of the new girls like Muni Long or SZA on there to promote their new albums.  They should have had Latto up there sing-rapping "bad chick, I could be your fantasy...big, big energy" with the Magic Wands dancing.

Josh Kelly (Cody) has been getting too much sun.  His skin will not age well if he keeps doing that (or was it just bronzer?).  I wish they'd give him better stories instead of letting him languish in the background.

I am on the West Coast and don't usually watch the uploads on daily basis (more a few at a time), but wanted to watch GH yesterday and I don't even think it was up by midnight last night and sometimes it's up at 4 pm lol.   Today it was up pretty timely.  I don't know the schedule hulu tries to follow, but I have never noticed an issue until yesterday. 

The random lawyer turned singer did have a lovely voice, but I had no idea if she was connected to the show or they just found her or if she was somehow famous in some way I wasn't aware of.   It was such a strange waste of like 10 minutes of an episode.

GH can't afford a stage so I doubt they could afford a "name".  Maybe beg Ricky Martin for a favor lol?

IIRC she changed her last name as a tribute to Bobbie's family of origin last fall after her whole adventure with her adoptive mother's ashes when she found her true self on the beach with Drew, and then promptly regressed within weeks

But I get what you mean about Yuri. All the other guys came out all shaved and primped up looking like pretty boys, while Yuri came out looking like a real man

    • This leads to one of my favorite scenes ever...I won't spoil it but it is a very clever meta moment unmasking Brent to the cops...(it may have happened.) Also you already saw one of my favorite lines..."You, you think I'm a LESBIAN???" even crazy Brent is shocked that Lucy is that dumb, and only crazy Brent would be pissed at being mistaken for gay instead of being a psychotic rapist /killer.   Hate that scene, made both adult women look like morons. Amanda is way too subtle for that, I could see her egging emotional Blake into doing that and making a fool of herself in front of everyone. The whole story would have been more fun if Amanda was manipulating Blake to look like the Blake of old.   One of McLaiby's biggest mistakes is what they do to Bridget, who grew up since having Peter and loosing Maureen and running a business.I remember Liabson saying in the press..."The Bridget we know is back" but that was over, and being more adult does not mean you have to be boring..she was even less feisty here, she just looks pathetic.    This story is so gross... and too bad too, cause Griffin is sexy as hell. I can see Viv getting steamed on him but....   There is a spectrum of sexuality that some people can go in and out of, depending on special people they may find attractive...and we can leave it at that. I never trust the long distance girlfriend boyfriend but I hope he is happy and settled. I would have HATED the Abby storyline. He raped and killed too many people to be "reformed," and to have anyone in SF accept him or trust him after that would make them look like morons.  
    • Eva convinced Nicole to have the party -- due to Leslie/Dana's insistence that there be a party when they do their planned dramatic reveal. They haven't specified which anniversary it is for Ted and Nicole. How many years have they been married?  It's not 10, 20, 25, 30 or some specific number that you'd celebrate. Kat pointed out that there was no plan for a party until Eva instigated it, which indicates to me that it's some odd number of years.
    • Why is Billy such a wet rag in every scene he's in? Isn't he the same man responsible for the disastrous Chancellor Remodel back in 2016?
    • Okay, after reflecting on Mucas overnight, I suggest we cut to the chase & call them  SNOT You have to admit that it would be different!
    • Part of me feels both Jacob and Naomi might show up at some point today. As "late arrivals", etc.
    • MVJ seems to be cognizant that Leslie and Eva are true breakouts for this show:

    • Yesterdays episode was a great lead in the fireworks for today.  It is a shame that Naomi and Jacob are not there and Nicole's best friend Vanessa and Doug.I am interested to see the fallout from this.  I do think that Eva is Ted and Nicole's daughter.
    • Okay, I hear ya. But, you know Josh Griffith on one Thursday night fired 7 or 8 writers in one fell swoop! That totally blew my mind. But, I still think this is bunk. And, no, the show is not that bad! Literally, my only problem with it, as a fan, is that I think it could be great & it's just not. It's good, not great. They still are not on top of pacing. They routinely take too long to tell stories. But, one example, the scenes this week with Lulu & Laura were like old time soap come home!
    • Ok nevermind, Wolf is in Marian's getup on the Jan 9th episode. Lucy wakes up at the lighthouse and it's now Marian, drinking tea, and sounding like an old British woman a la Mrs. Doubtfire

       Wolf is actually doing a good job as Brett, but I don't think they made him look like a believable Marian - its too clown/drag, but also creepier - and Wolf has a large nose they couldn't hide. I guess at this point, it didn't matter since she was unhinged and revealing him/herself anyway.
