General Hospital: May 2023 Discussion Thread

I think Karen had a target on her back on Port Charles when it pivoted to the supernatural and distanced itself from GH. Scotty and Serena jumped ship to the mother ship. Lee/Gail faded away. She was one one of the last mothership characters left on canvas.  Unlike Lucy and Kevin, who basically became new characters, she was too much a reminder of Port Charles past.

Re Karen on GH

They could do a like Lesly reveal in 1996 with her

 

If Rex Stanton is still alive maybe he took Karen & faked her death because Rex never got Dominiques money from his failed kidnapping of Serena in 1997

 

However Karen had a reaction to the drug given to her & is in a catatonia

I mean, there are ways to bring Karen back, but is it worth it now?  I do think it was a mistake to kill her off.  It's just at this point why go out of your way to bring her back with some wacky backstory?  Would she bring that much to the canvas?  Scott/Sonny are pretty much her only concrete ties on the show and Sonny is pushing it.

If they're going to bring Scott's (and Lucy's) daughter back, they should start (and probably end) with Serena.  Josh Kelly's Cody (the show's hottest man currently) being her newfound half-brother is a nice family angle to explore and she'd have plenty of romantic possibilities (maybe a real triangle with Spencer & Cameron when he comes back LOL).

Today's episode was fun.  I wish Morgan Fairchild was playing Sydney Chase, though, so she could tangle (or team up) with Tracy Quartermaine for old time's sake in a hostile takeover of Deception from Lucy.  We could have a whole reunion of the fine cast of The City playing their better characters with Lisa LoCicero's Jocelyn (instead of Olivia) and Laura Wright's Ally (now the insufferable Carly).  They could have folded Tess' modeling agency into the Face of Deception campaign in some way.  Maybe bring back Azure and finally give that shockingly well-crafted and ahead-of-her-time trans character the justice she deserves!

I was JUST going to say the same thing, @BrendaB, lol!  I'd bring back Serena, even if Carly Schroeder is out of the business now, and I'd have her follow in Lee and Scotty's footsteps by becoming an attorney.  She and Scotty could even start a father-and-daughter law firm!

Of course, I'd also figure out a way to expose Cody as a fraud (the real Cody is either dead or in hiding) and a DVX agent in disguise.

I'd just as soon pretend that THE CITY was all part of someone's feverish imagination.

My heart just broke. We all watched Haley grow-up on screen. She was our next Kim Mc, our next Robyn Richards. Wow. 

I know she got so much protection on set, especially from NLG. Nancy spoke out when Soaps In Depth ran photos of her in a bikini when she was only a teen. I thought just perhaps she had escaped the child star curse. 

I hope Haley gets the help she needs. These actions, the DUI and the hit/run, is a clear cry for help. The last thing she needs to do is worry about playing Molly.

The whole thing is bad.  Her previous statement making it seemed like it was a minor car accident and the severity of the incident including fighting cops and needing to be sedated after the arrest and a previous hit and run.   It sounds like she needs serious help.   Not to mention HP could go to jail.  I don't see her coming back anytime soon.  At this point, her job on GH should not be her main concern.

    • Well, that is weird. I do not see him but I only have him on Ignore on 2 accounts.
    • In the preview for the show back in February on Entertainment Tonight, Jeresa the costume designer was specific about each character's economic background, personality, and the character's personal fashion preferences.  Very much about the characters and not the actors. She said Eva is a thrifter, so her normal daily wardrobe would be something from a thrift store, and if BTG buys it new, they intentionally make it look used. So what you said fits about the type of thing a lower income person would buy for a fancy event.
    • As hard as it is for me to imagine anyone but Don Stewart as Mike Bauer...I dunno...maybe someone like "Adam-12"'s Kent McCord?  Or Robert Hogan?
    • Yep I don't hate Javi and then he's macking on Leo and I'm done with him. Leo is a failure who needs to go away   I am bracing myself for Alex reading the manuscript and imagining him and Stephanie as the main characters, because this couple has literally nothing else to do until Joy comes back showing 
    • Oh yes. The towel scene though 
    • Interesting that Donald May has been mentioned twice. He's on my dreamcast list for Alan. He was somewhat older than Stewart and Bernau, but he could have played either role. An actor I thought about for Mike was Dan Hamilton. He played a role on GL during the 60s, but enough time had passed that it shouldn't have been a problem. He usually played smarmy characters but it would have been cool if they had gone against typecasting.
    • I like Jed Allan, it has to be someone who can play authority but "good" authority to oppose Alan's bad. As mentioned upthread, can you imagine how it would have been with Alan and Mike against each other, with Roger in the mix. But I would have had Roger, ever the opportunist to try to take advantage of their fighting to make his own headway.  Maybe that could have been the storyline, Mike involved with Alex, but the constant fighting with Alan causes a rift (she like Mike fighting Alan when it is to her advantage, but he can be a bit self righteous and I can see him demanding her to disavow Alan publicly..) so that is how Roger lands in her bed, much to the consternation of BOTH Alan and Mike. I would like to have a woman of a certain age being fought over by two men (really three if you count Alan.
    • Please let May have less garbage time. The Y&R threads have shrunken, whereas I can barely keep up with the Beyond the Gates threads.
    • The Liam cancer story was a failure from day one. It didn't start at point A but at a late point C. My aunt had brain cancer, and it isn't being told properly or correctly.
    • OMG, did Gio look good. Do not get me started on how good he looked. Lord. It's as if the writers realized Lulu had almost no scenes with her mother, so they wrote all this material for a 2-day Lulu/Laura therapy session. It was nice to see them connect, but I scratched my head yesterday when Lulu tried to connect her adoption story to Laura's life. That was a stretch to me, and I sign the writers were working overtime. Today, the script eventually got to the right place, but I thought it was overboard to see Lulu so worked up that she was near tears. That's investment in a story that's become an obsession.
