LOL I'm glad I crept into the GH thread to see this lovefest of GL's final days on earth. Gosh, I remember that scene, too. Was für ein verdammter Witz. 

I'd be drinking right alongside Zimmer too if I had to be a part of that mess.

Does Sonny know that Nina knew who he was in Nixon Falls and chose to keep him hidden from his family? 

That feels more unforgivable than calling the SEC on Carly, who is actually guilty of obstructing justice in order to avoid an investigation of insider trading,

It seems like the writing team has kind have taken away Ms. Wu's teeth. They had her acting like the school principal, disciplining the two bad kids in those scenes today with Cody and Gladys. I wish they'd figure what they want to do with her.

Btw, the doctor with Gladys and Sasha looked familiar. Does anyone know his real name?

No wonder GH has ratings that are going down. It is so slow moving. Plots take forever to come to light. Just think of how viewers would increase if there was a movement with Nina, Carly, and Sonny and the SEC. Come on. Let’s get moving!

Thanks for warning me it's a Gladys episode again.  I figured with yesterday's "cliffhanger".  If she doesn't fall into the pool like Ned and actually drown then I am going to have to skip it I think.  I would rather write an essay about why Carly is a great heroine than watch another day of Gladys, Sasha, and Cody talk about the exact same thing they have been talking about for 4 months now.

Yes.  He was mad for awhile, but Carly being in love with Jason or something drove him back to Nina.  I can't remember, but Sonny knows.

It looks like KS got her eyebrows microbladed or tinted.  It should fade.  Her eyebrows are probably too light for her hair now.  It looks ridiculous, but from experience it fades out pretty quickly.  She probably just filmed this right after getting it done.  Also, remember this post.  I just defended something about Maxie's styling for the first time ever.

The biggest tragedy of losing Guza was the dismantling of that writers room and their consistency when it came to character voices and dynamics. Whenever I tune back in now the way Carly interacts with and is pleasantly received by so many characters is so jarring for me. I do wonder how Laura Wright feels about it because she used to relish in playing Carly’s unreserved vitriol.

Fine with that.  You know I think Maxie needs to get transferred to Deception's Paris office for at least 2 years.

Kirsten just keeps trying to change her look and it screams insecurity and I feel bad for her, but I honestly think she just did something trendy with her eyebrows and it's not permanent.  She just probably didn't realize how stupid they would look for a few days and the makeup artists at GH were like...

    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
    • @Maxim Great to see your mini-reviews again. There are a number of clips on Youtube of Janice's slow mental breakdown, especially as we go into January 1980. Christine Jones is just superb. She played the hell out of that role. Something which isn't referenced as much later on is how Mitch pushed Janice's doubts and mental instability for his own ends...until suddenly he didn't want to anymore (I guess he caught on with the audience and the show became wary). I don't want to post a bunch of clips, but this one has a very good confrontation between Rachel and Janice.

      This has a good scene around 7 minutes in where you can see Janice struggling internally with her need to identify herself so much by the men around her, all of which helps lead to her crackup.  
    • It really made Oscar the Doorman seem like an imbecile.   I think the show's unusual format & subject manner is what makes EON often seem less "dated" and "old-fashioned" than other shows from that time period.  It never attempted to be especially "trendy" or "modern" -- and its film noir style is pretty timeless.  
    • Dallas, Dynasty, Knots and Falcon Crest all had good runs but by 85 they had seen better days. I think they were a victim of the format. After several seasons seeing the same characters front and center viewers were bored. What was once fascinating grew predictable. JR, Alexis etc had to be front and center and after a while their schemes and shtick grew repetitive. JR remarrying Sue Ellen, Alexis constantly trying to get he better of Blake etc Unlike daytime, there wasn't the flexibility to bring in other stories and characters and maybe let the likes JR go backburner. That same mentality also invaded daytime with characters like  Sonny and Victor still peddling the same stuff after decades. I guess the same could be said for MSW eg every week Jessica encounters a crime and solves it,but I think viewers come to that format with a different mindset.
    • Daphnee and Trisha did a live stream on Instagram and confirmed they find out if the show gets picked up in May. This pretty much confirms they're on the primetime schedule like the Bell soaps. Fingers crossed we get a multi-year renewal announcement soon!  https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJSsYb7PDv8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==        
    • I don't think Lois the character was there.  The Lois we knew from the 90s has pretty much died with this  Gio story crap.
