GH: July 2024 Discussion Thread

[Vee]

Sam fans still pretend this wasn't true, which cracks me up. It was so obviously the Jason/Brenda storyboards. The relationship was identical early on.

Well...Carly is going to Carly. lol.

 

After that annoying Perez episode, this one was all kinds of intriguing. No nookie for Ava then lol. But I couldn't help, but think about Carly and G-Man from ATWT watching her with Wagger. lol. And now Carly done got arrested. Well...one way to keep Jason in town. Moreso now that Carly's secret should not be hanged over his head now. 

 

And OMG!! Are they really going to go there with Willow/Drew then? I was thinking it was winding down now that Nina knew, but I was pleasantly surprised. I was VERY surprised with all the bubble butts on display, too. I don't even like CD but I enjoyed him out of that dress jacket. Same CM always had it. So...

 

Why is that Danny always gets the short end of the stick? 

 

And ugh at Molly and TJ. But that story needed to explode so her overreacting works.

Jagger bringing up Sonny murdering AJ right to both their faces only made me support him more.

And just like that the stupid ass status quo of this show remains the same. Be opposed to Sonny, Carly, and Jason, actual criminals, and you will be considered the bad guy. Carly getting off like this is exactly why I stopped watching GH.

And am I to assume now that the whole Pikeman storyline was just pointless? Valentin and Brennan are both free?

I really had such high hopes for this show in the previous months I had been watching, but the shift in writing is overly noticeable and not for the better. I don’t see how much longer I’ll be holding on.

I knew Sonny and Carly’s offscreen kid must be young but for me to see Donna for the first time and realize she’s the same age as Carly’s grandson was just wow. Why exactly did Sonny and Carly need another kid especially in their I’m assuming 50’s and 60’s?

Anna absolutely sucks now. Just completely sucks.

I love Scotty and Ava together. Ava typically loses so I’ll just enjoy her scheming until Sonny ultimately takes Avery from her.

That lines up come to think of it. Its a shame Brenda didnt last longer and yes...they were definitely pairing her with Jason. Then Courtney and Sam got in there some how.

Sonny & Carly's last child served NO purpose. She didn't drive story at all.

Oh, look! Friday cliffhangers are back!!!

 

And that was a pretty decent cliffhanger, too. Everyone banding together against Wagger. So we have a new 'bad' guy. 

 

So this was the scenes you all were talking about with Kristina and Molly. Well, I'm happy to see the actress playing Molly come into her own. Because she shaded the heck out of Kristina. Though again, it goes back to them writing Kristina as the never-do-well since Kate M came on. That said, I understood her frustration with Kristina who was clearly stalling. While I don't like that Molly IS overreacting, I loved the scenes because this has been building for a while so it was nice to see it explode. And both scenes could be seen.

I have nothing to say about the acting except GREAT things! However, I cannot say the same about the writing. No, this storyline is a stinker. However, as long as everyone gets it that Tolly overreacted to the max. I mean, boil it down & all Kristina was doing was keeping private things, private. And, she got crucified for it. But, I will say, this story is gonna get even soapier. And, there's no way that is a bad thing. 

[Taoboi]

I agree. I can't believe the overreaction. And I liked Kristina's reasoning, and thought that was just common sense. But here I am playing catch-up and there is Kristina being irrational that TJ and Molly might break up and le sigh.

 

So crazy. But yeah, I think it's about to get soapier for sure. Not bad at all.

 

 

[Taoboi]

It so was. But alas.

 

And Robert was good in the role. 

Correct.

 

May the Beast live. 

[Contessa Donatella]

Yes, it's screwy. Like a tennis match. Kristina makes sense. Then, turn a corner & she does not. Back & forth. Exact same thing can be said for Tolly. They'll be on an even keel. Then, BOOM, they are in a panic. TJ was completely unfair to Alexis. She's been Switzerland this whole time. Now he mocks her, saying that not taking a side is taking Krissy's side. UNFAIR. Basically, I really like Molly, not so much TJ. 

My biggest fear is that the baby will be fine & Kristina will make it through but they'll tell her that she can never have any more children. Oh Lord, we can all see what would come of that.

He was my dream Michael for the longest of long time!

[Taoboi]

Hehe. Dreams come true.

Just watching this now. There's such an odd but potent sexual chemistry with Chase and Dex, especially in the first scene.
