GH: January 2024 Discussion Thread

So when is Sonny going to divorce Nina? He can't possibly be happy about her going after Drew and Carly, can he? If Nina is going to go this dark road as an ubervillain, then why not have Sonny completely sever ties with Nina and move on? Willow too? In fact, I would be more than happy if Nina and Willow never have anything to do with each other ever again.

I like Kraze too.  Kate sells it so well with those eyes/those looks she gives.

I mean, yes, Kate is there with Blaze & with the Davis women & also with Sonny! From serious intensity all the way to such flirting! Shippin #Kraze!

Me, I don't like Curtis. And I miss Taggert! It's been over 100 days,

Michael Easton’s continued existence and suckage on this show is an another reason Frank needs to go as well. 

[Aragorn]

Curtis family scenes are terrible. Curtis is good when he appears in scenes with other people.

The above Brighton interview is wonderful.  Highly recommend. 

(Fairman was emotional and repeated himself a little, but it seemed (to me) that that was him speaking less as an interviewer and more as a viewer, still deeply moved by the Bobbie memorial with "Angela" Brighton in the episodes.  Then he would recover for a minute and speak as an interviewer.)

Brighton herself is amazing.

She deeply remembers her time on the show a child actor.  She was on the show since she was a baby so maybe doesn't remember the first few years but certainly remembers several years of her time there.  She says it's one the most important things in her life, despite it ending 39 years ago.  She had a single mom and she had siblings in the business, but the cast and crew were like her family, too.  To come back and see so many veteran actors and some crew/staff still there - was so familiar. She said everything looked exactly the same but felt smaller in size, since she is now taller than when she was a child, LOL.  

She remembers her time working as a child, vividly, and Jackie, and Brad Maule.  So many things that we as viewers remember,  that you wouldn't expect a child actor to notice, she remembers!  Specific scenes, etc.

Brighton said it was great seeing everyone again, and they were surprised/happy to see her, too.  Brighton said that when she was a child, she'd watched Zenon (The Disney films that Kirsten Storms appeared in) !!! - and was happy to meet Kirsten because of that, in addition to the more important relevance that Maxie has BJ's heart. She said Kirsten was great and helped her orient.  She said that Maurice Benard gave her a rundown on how filming happens nowadays which was helpful.  Seeing Lynn Herring and Kristina Wagner again, getting to know Ryan Carnes, etc. etc. etc.

She said she didn't want her return to be about her. She wanted it to be about Jackie. While she was filming the recent episodes, she could have spent time socializing more, but instead chose to keep the focus on remembering Jackie and honoring Bobbie.  This was meaningful to her.  She said it was spiritual or something like that, but didn't want to label it specifically.  She liked that it was open to viewer interpretation.

Just watch.  She's amazing.

I've found someone who is clipping all Kate Mansi/Kristina scenes. Now they're not up to date but they keep at it & they have more than anywhere else. Here's the link:

I think it is such a great idea putting it on the Internet Archive site!

Last week was a season high in ratings. I thought it was a great week and people are tuning in.

[DramatistDreamer]

Wrong thread. Sorry. I will move post to the classic thread.

Am I the only one who thinks it's really awkward for Kristina and Blaze to start this relationship at the very same time of a pregnancy by surrogate?

The whole thing is bizarre.

 

[AMCOLTLLover]

Huh? He wasn’t even on that much lately.
