Is there a reason Maxie looks like a drag queen today?

Nothing will ever be as hilarious to me as the time they went to... Bosnia? Germany?... for something involving Jeff Branson's Shayne and they literally just put the flag of whatever country it was supposed to be in the middle of Peapack's lawn. Guten Tag!

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.

Can we drop this character, or at least recast her. I don't want to watch her anymore.

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,

Well... sucks to be Drew 😂😂

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.

WTH have they done to KS???

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.

Oh my fùcking god.

That's 100% what's happened to a segment of their audience and it's why they now write Carly the way they do, long after the Guza team is largely gone. They are both afraid to do anything else and don't want to.

But most of the Guza team (minus Liz Korte, who's still there) knew how to write Carly ugly and go for the throat, right to the end. As I've said before, they were not averse to writing Laura's Carly as hard, cold and ugly to the wrong people/heroic protagonists - and Laura played it very, very well. When Carly had a vendetta, even in her later dotage with Jax and the kids, the money and the beautiful yellow house, you knew LW's Carly could still make it her mission in life for all the wrong reasons. Yes, she's been overpropped and over-indulged since at least near the end of Sarah's run but they didn't have to lay out nearly as many hosannas to Carly's kindness and greatness until this show became Frank's house and only Frank's. Until I'd say the mid-2010s they were still able to allow Carly to sometimes be two things.

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.

I am actually surprised out of all KS's wardrobe and style atrocities this is the one that pushes you over the edge lol.  

Just send Kirsten off. This isn't good for anyone. It's giving Corpse Bride!

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...🤷‍♀️
