GH: March 2024 Discussion Thread

Things we learned today: 

Dex is safe. They're keeping his character. 

Joss was more naive & sheltered than many of us realized. Her thing of being anti-Sonny didn't really involve the mob but was just plain anti-Sonny. When her father Jax would go on & on about his daughter living in danger & under guard, she really didn't get it. 

BLQ is Presumptive Team Jason. More than that though she is Team Q & Tracy's Grandbaby with her traits & ways of thinking. She really let Special Agent IAmJohn have it. 

Willow has taken another step in helping Jason because somehow she appropriated a bottle of antibiotic.  

Only Day 3 of PM/Korte but longer scenes, better flow, more complex dialogue, things are said with intent & purpose specific to the characters & to situations, people aren't staying in their same lanes but moving in & out of lanes, characters interacting with people they usually have not, ...

Good episode today, lots of parent child relationships at play this is the kind of exploration I like to see on my soaps

I couldn’t believe Dex snitched on Sonny like that

 Finola Hughes once again doing A caliber work even with a scene partner not up to par. Curious where things go with both characters seemingly done with protecting Sonny even though Anna didn’t even bother to take the statement

Josslyn and Carly’s scenes were great. Its interesting seeing Carly have to explain her blind loyalty to Jason and Sonny despite their crimes and her kid not just excusing it

Love the current dynamic of Kristina and Sonny. Nice to see him support her with Eva La Rue

Jason having zero connections with his sons is actually kind of sad but its cool to see him bond with Danny in real time. Loved Brook Lynn going after Jagger for questioning Danny

Love the current dynamic of Kristina and Sonny. Nice to see him support her with Eva La Rue

Elizabeth and Aidan’s scenes were pretty good as well.

I agree with everybody who said that the dialogue and the scenes in general do seem to have improved  lately, but I still don’t know about some of these story choices.

I wish we would have seen Jake and Aiden’s argument rather than just hearing about it.  And I would definitely much rather have seen that than Joss crying and moaning for the umpteenth time. I glad she’s hurting right now. She totally deserves it #Karma

Btw, Laura Wright acts circles around Eden McCoy.

As for John/Jagger, when it comes to biased prop writing, are they trying to top the ‘Nina tipped off the SEC’ crap with his story arc? 

And yeah, maybe it’s time to introduce Tobias. That would be something new for a teen romance soap storyline #Taiden

Carly: "I thought you knew?"

Joss: "Yeah, but I thought you guys were kidding before?"

Carly: "Oh, yeah.  That's exactly the kind of family we are.  The kind that jokes about working in organized crime on a regular basis.  Seriously, daughter, where did I go wrong with you?"

They know this. They are showing Joss as the true hypocrite she is.

Joss has been a hypocrite for a while now. Its not like she didnt know Sonny ran a MOB and Jason as enforcer killed for him. What did she expect Dex as his new enforcer was gonna do, pour coffee?

I doubt they'd do two gay storylines at the same time. I wish they'd do both because the Kristina/Blaze story does nothing for me. I don't care for the pairing and either actress in their roles. It's nice to have EL but that's about it.

I believe they are telling us that Joss believed in a fairy tale version where, sure, there were times when they had to kill but it was only bad people on the attack. She even pointed out that it was an old man in a hospital bed. 

How can you not?!! They are so adorable?!! Oh, well, can't win them all. 

Me, I had the opposite reaction to Sexy Dexy yesterday. I had previously had him on my list as in danger of being cut & then after their use of him yesterday, decided, no, that he was actually safe, that they had a use for him. I guess we'll see.

I wish to high heaven that they would get rid of Dex. He is awful. I can't stand his style of anything. What tf is different about him lately? It's not just his hair. What is it? Eyebrows? Filler?

They had a great opportunity to get rid of him with this storyline. Now he's blabbing to Anna. WTF. That is such a wussy way out. And he's STILL standing around with his mouth hanging open ALL the time. Close your mouth Dex! And don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. 

The only reason I think they might make him Jason's son is only as an excuse to keep him around. He's not only a wuss, but he's now narced off Sonny to the authorities. How will he come back from that since Joss has dumped him? So sick of Dex.

This Jason's son nonsense people online come up with is as fake as "street kid Dev is Brenda's son". I suspect he may well be out soon, and he should be. He's a wuss but he was right to drop a dime on Sonny.

Fake as it may be, there are not many other ways to keep Dex relevant now that he's done the ultimate snitch on Sonny. I don't care if Joss loves him or if she's pregnant. This Dex guy has been in Sonny's inner circle for a couple of years now. It was preposterous that Dex earned Sonny's trust in any way since he's been brought in as a friend of the manager of the boxing ring (or whatever) by Michael.

I'm just waiting for word that this Dex schlup is gone for good.

I hope they continue to do that, because the propping has been beyond sick. 

Didn’t his whole family get killed off in a hurricane or something?

Then again, the way they rewrite things on GH now, it could happen. It would be pretty good, regardless. 

It would be nice to see though lol 

Plus, it would be something different, which is always good for soaps. 

Exactly.

That could be so good.

    • I feel like the lawsuit storyline was resolved quickly because the show didn’t want to spring for more sets.
    • It's been a while, but we have seen the foyer to Bill and Hayley's house as well as the exterior entrance to their house. The foyer was first seen in the premiere episode when Hayley met Vanessa at the house.
    • There's still a year or two before Larkin arrives. Joel is there already. EON does noticeably youthify, although I think they carry it off. Admittedly I haven't seen most of the Jody stories, which from what people here have said aren't great.
    • I don't mind the actor who plays Brian. He's fine. The problem for me is that Paige seems so wishy wishy. She doesn't seem to have much of a personality at this point so I don't see why Brian would be so besotted with her. She just lurches from one trauma to the next. Granted, it's only been a month, but she's not as vibrant as April or even Deborah who has had minimal screen time by this point.  I do worry about the influence of GH on the show since I'm in fall of 1979 and characters have conversations and there's not the drive to "youthify" the show. However, I think Marceau (sp?) is gone. He was given a rather tame sendoff. How long was the actor on the show? I hope this is not a sign of things to come. I worry the show is setting up a murder mystery around one of my favorite characters and I will be mightily annoyed. I also noticed in recent Search for Tomorrow episodes uploaded to YT that the actors playing Logan and Eliot showed up. I don't watch the show but they were in the screencaps. When does Larkin Malloy show up or has he already left? Joel Crothers hasn't shown up either unless I've blinked and missed him.
    • Dr Linden. She treated Vanessa's drug addiction (although Vanessa seemed to forget that by Henry's suicide attempt) , and she's mentioned during Reva's PPD. Although I can't recall if she's actually shown right off the top of my head. She probably was temporarily shelved when Sonni was a therapist (between her crazy times) And I think Billy sees her after he falls off the wagon after Reva's death.
    • Kinda agree. I have some issues with the sets. Nicole's living room is bland-looks like a display home. Bill and Hayley's is too small and basically hideous. And neither of them have a front door/entrance or staircase. People just appear from the corridor. Those green accents  at Uptown are way too much. Also,Naomi and Vanessa not having an office or a home .
    • Thanks @Paul Raven  That Grainger story always reads like hog-wild melodrama, not very similar to the more subtle stories for Rita in her last few years. I wonder how Lenore played the material.
    • More from 1976 Lynn, apparently making every effort to overcome her alcoholism, accepts a baby-sitting job. However, when the baby starts crying, Lynn begins to get nervous and takes one drink, then another. By the time Bruce and Van arrive home, Lynn is on the floor, ineffectually trying to find the doctor’s number, sure the baby is ill. When the mother arrives; she vows to let everyone know what goes on in the mayor’s house.Bruce insists that Lynn has to go, but Van, learning that Lynn can’t remember drinking the cooking sherry, calls Joe to report Lynn’s blackouts. Joe wants her institutionalized but gives in to Van’ s pleas that Lynn needs loving attention. Eddie has sent some of Felicia’s work to a New |York gallery owner and reports to Charles that Lisa Cooper wants to exhibit Felicia’s work. Charles refuses to tell her this and later admits he feels he has “cowed”her attention because of his being confined to a wheelchair. What Charles doesn’t say is: that he’s plagued with fears she’ll leave him for another man. Felicia is exuberant as she starts painting again. She tells Charles how she feels about it, but, jealous of anyone or anything that takes attention from him, Charles tries to undermine her confidence. Eddie finally professes his love for her. He will be happy to step forward if she will only let Be and admit that they belong together. Charles tries to stop Felicia’s ‘trip to New York by making her doubt her own work, and when that fails, he finds business reasons at his bookshop to keep Di, his ex-wife, who is running it for him, from accompanying her. Felicia finally decides it’s not going to work and tells Eddie they might as well call it off. Instead, he arranges for Lisa Cooper to come to Rosehill. Charles is rude and insulting to Lisa when she arrives at the house to view Felicia’s work, and his derogatory remarks about shady gallery dealings prompt Lisa to tell Eddie that living in such an atmosphere could permanently stunt an artist’s development; if Felicia is subjected to this indefinitely, it’s not even worth Lisa’s while to take her on as a client. Felicia finally decides she can’t be torn apart any longer and must accede to Charles’s demands. She tells Eddie her career is over and she won’t paint any more, breaks down in his arms, crying bitterly, then pulls away, unwilling to acknowledge that her feelings for him are deeper than she dare face. Charles is delighted when she prepares to dispose of her art supplies, insisting everything will be fine once she has accepted that this part of her life is over. But she cannot do it. She promises him that he can set the limits and terms, but she must paint. Arlene discovers that her mother is planning to avoid the surgery she needs, and the accompanying medical bills, by leaving Rosehill and moving in with her sister Dorothy out west. Arlene manages to prevent this by calling her aunt and telling her the truth about Carrie’s condition. Dr. Tom Crawford has been footing the costs of Carrie’s presurgery tests, but Arlene knows that Carrie won’t like this. So she tells Carrie that David Hart, the son of Meg’s late husband, the former mayor, has heard about their plight and forwarded the money as a gesture of friendship, to be repaid when possible. To convince Carrie that she does indeed have the money, Arlene asks Ray to just lend it to her for a few hours, so she can convince Carrie and then immediately return it. Ray instructs her to get dressed for a night on the town and takes her, out implying that the money will be waiting at the end of the evening. When Ian Russell happens to join them, Arlene doesn’t suspect anything is afoot, but when e Ray suddenly leaves, she becomes furious, realizing what he’s done. But she finds Mr: Russell a distinguished and cultured man, and decides there’s no harm in having a drink. After cocktails and stimulating conversation, Ian suggests that they go to his place, and Arlene agrees. But when they get there, Ian matter of factly suggests that they skip the preliminaries and get on with it. Ian is embarrassed and annoyed to discover that Arlene is not a professional call girl and that Ray didn’t explain to her the purpose of their |meeting. He is apologetic and solicitous, until Arlene, explaining why Ray felt he could pull this on her, mentions her sick mother in need of an operation. Ian starts to laugh at this overworked standard line, and a livid Arlene storms out of his apartment. Thinking it over, Ian decides he’s more intrigued with Arlene than he is annoyed at Ray, and calls Ray for her telephone number. But Arlene is not delighted to hear from him, and he has to use a good deal of soothing charm before she agrees to have dinner with him at one of the better local restaurants.During dinner Ian again apologizes for his mistake, and he gives Arlene a diamond pendant as a token of his gratitude for her forgiving him. Ray arrives to interrupt an otherwise enjoyable evening with a business matter, and quietly reminds Arlene that Ian is his customer and she’s not to cut herself in with him. At home, Arlene examines the pendant and is convinced that it’s genuine. She hides it in her dresser drawer, unable to bring herself to show it to her mother.
    • LOL!! That's funny.  I actually thought he got a little better.
