Sonny slamming the door on Nina made me bust out laughing. That was probably the only decent moment of the show for me. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to keep watching for this Bobbie death story cause today’s episode was even worse than the previous in terms of feeling hollow.

 

Did we really need to pause on Carly grieving to see her and Drew ream in on Nina? It wasn’t even a good dragging either, they came off awful and I say that as a proud OG Carly apologist. Laura and Cynthia did great with what they were given but yeah, it was all very womp womp


The reveal of Bobbie’s death to temp Joss and Michael also fell flat for me. Whoever said the script writing is just so generic you don’t feel a real connection with anything was spot on. RIP to characters having distinct voices

I think Maurice Bernard’s son is a decent actor. He’s obviously only on to get another IMDB credit and master script memorization but I’m intrigued. I’ll be sure to tune in for his inevitable turn to full on crazy

 

i know other stuff happened but I already forgot and I just finished watching the episode on Hulu five minutes ago. The strike writers were much better

Can someone explain the criticism of Drew today?  I get that what he said to Nina was offensive.  But, isn't the point that people around Drew have noticed a change in his personality since he was released from prison?  It felt in-keeping with the story that Drew has become unhinged, and we are meant to be shocked by his behavior.  So, I don't get this thread reaction?  Is it because it was poorly acted?

I'm honestly confused, but not trying to criticize anyone's reaction.

Not that it matters to TPTB, lol, but Jeff Branson is too young to play Drew.  At the very least, I think whoever were to succeed CM (b. 1969) as Drew should be in the same age range as he and Steve Burton (b. 1970).

And casting Trevor St. John as nuDrew would end badly.  Very badly.  Like, "Trevor lies in a pool of his own blood, as Laura Wright is escorted out of the GH studios by the LAPD" badly.

I've long believed that if mobsters needed to exist permanently on GH, then they needed to be Runyonesque.  But that doesn't mean turning Sonny "Move Out the Way So's I Can Get a Clearer Shot At My In-Labor Wife!" Corinthos into Nathan Detroit.

Haha!  He just came to my mind.  I still am not sold on a need for Drew at all.

It's just way too much.  Not only does he buy all the holiday decorations for the hospital, but didn't he fund two separate wings of that hospital (Stone's and one for Mike)?  Give me a break!  And you know I actually like Sonny.

I forgot it was on.  What's the rundown?

      I just got to it!  Assuming you mean the scene where they got into Marian's computer and it's Beaty's Marian saying "Very good, you guessed the magic word.  Today, the role of Marian Crane is being played by..." and then Wolf's Brent saying "Brent Lawrence. That's right folks, I'm baaaack.  And I have Lucy..." This makes me want to know even MORE about the behind the scenes. Like did Beaty already film the Marian clip while he was dressed up, but then they couldn't film his Brent scene so they used Wolf? I don't hate it, I really like that they were able to use Beaty's Marian in that way. And LOL yes, the LESBIAN question, so funny. This story's climatic ending is really paying off. I'm not to the end yet, but enjoying the ride. Yeah, I'm not liking the Bridget now that is willing to cave and start doing the wrong thing.  We'll see what happens... Very true on the spectrum of sexuality. If they went with that story, it makes me wonder how they'd have gotten Abby brushed up on ASL in order to communicate. I don't think I could have handled the made up sign language and communication confusion scenes during his rehab. But true - it would have reminded me of Jonathan Lavery on AMC, although they were able to use a brain tumor or something as the scapegoat/way to cure his evil side.

      I remember some of it. SO different from Billy. He was the hospital heartthrob. I have such a clear memory of Rita seducing him. I swear to God, Santana's Samba Pa Ti was playing in the background. It's funny the details you remember.  Honestly, anything that would have prevented him from being pulled into the Reva vortex would have been O.K. with me.

      Yes, this is Soapsuds. I'd like to appear on your show but Chandler Massey must be my celebrity companion. I'm surprised no one posted about Chandler appearing on the game show. He must have taped these around December, as he has the same style of hair and facial hair as he did when he did an interview for a 90s Christmas.
