GH: August 2024 Discussion Thread

It was that weird Ron period where he thought he'd try to make the Cheetwood brothers a thing lol.

I remember him being a teacher and Lulu thinking he was a criminal or something?  But he was just a decent guy.  Stupid

I don't mind Lulu being a journalist tbh.  I never felt Lulu had the passion that Maxie did for fashion/cosmetics.  Since she was working at a magazine it's not the worst pivot for her to go into investigative journalism.  It's not like Sasha, the supermodel, randomly becoming a cook.

No writing change to my recollection... just a different direction, or finally deciding one altogether. The exits of Dev, Dustin & Lulu were call about one-year into the regime of Chris Van Etten & Dan O'Connor, so I don't think it was a decision made by them. My guess? Either Valentini or Disney ABC said "fix your budget," and those three exited and the Floatin' Rib set were collateral. One regular, two recurring and a set? Makes sense.

Looks like I’m still not going to like Kristina for the foreseeable future. She’s gone from being shocked that her dad is a criminal to now wanting her criminal father and his Hitman to kill Ava.

Wow don’t tell me Sonny was actually right about Cates

Hmmmmm

 

A waste for sure.

 

Totally. With his FOINE short self.

 

But journalist doesn't mean boring. It's all in how it plays out. And I felt Lulu was at least good at it.

 

And then look at Alexis. I thought her becoming a publisher was a much ado about nothing and so odd, but as it went on, it had some meat to it and potential for story. She grew. And that made her potential return to being a lawyer so fascinating to watch. I wish PM was still around because I wanted to see if this would be a dilemma for her since she was good at both jobs. 

Ahhhh! I see. 

 

Makes a good case for the Rules, too, given COD always came across more old school.

It was a mess, but those were some of the best scripts the show has had in a decade. Not that it matters now, but uncredited he gave KM and DZ the material to make their families seem like actual people, and their relationship felt real. He gave Nina a brain and a purpose beyond begging for Sonny to take her back. There was good in there.

    • Not just that but Im sure she will be blamed for trying to poison Laura with potassium. Remember when Nicole started to put the pieces together that someone may have tampered with her IV? She dropped it bc she got distracted with the party, but they did make a note to mention that Eva lied and sent a card and flowers there on Nicole's behalf. Im sure they will say that that was just a cover for her to be in Laura's room and come for her
    • Susan named her son after her father, Richard, and they called him Dickie, for short. David had bought Dickie a play swing but it was too big for him. One day, while David was babysitting, he put Dickie in the swing, took his eyes off of him for a few seconds and he fell out of the swing, hit his head and died. Susan was so devastated that she shot and killed David only like a few episodes later. 
    • Mickey Horton got her off, temporary insanity. Edit to add: If only Peacock would air this storyline.  Edit to add: David was supposed to be watching the child. Wasn't. Child fell out of swing, broke his neck. The show had the camera focus on that empty swing, just barely moving ...   
    • oooh....the '76 plot thickens... thanks @Paul Raven

        New interview!! I was like Penny, aka Janet, and said, "That's the end???"
    • You're really in for it, because those rants continue for 3 episodes. I was struck by how ho-hum those cliffhangers were. It was like the writers ran out of gas.
    • New Tomas pleaseeeeeeee!!

    • Thank you for the clarification, but Susan didn't name her child after David.  It was Julie who named her own son David.   And how/when was Susan's son killed?  And didn't Susan kill David Martin and stand trial for his murder?   The genius of Bill Bell -- truly.  
    • I truly wish we could see more of her work on DAYS. And more of her early stuff on GH, but at least we know that Corday’s DAYS vault is virtually complete, especially compared to GH. Lesley was a pivotal character. I think the scenes with the confrontation with Monica are so good because there is a lot of character in those lines and performances. Monica is ferocious, desperate. And Lesley is not a victim, she holds her own and calls Monica out, playing her own form of anger. Evenly matched. Soap confrontations have largely forgotten that both sides should be evenly matched, even if someone has wronged another. To me, that scene is easily in my soap hall of fame. They didn’t make enough of her return, which has always bothered me. I would have loved for her to end up vying for control of the hospital when Alan was incapacitated by drugs, helping him through that crisis and finding herself at odds with Monica again on a different level, not as romantic rivals. She had such a long career! Acting in radio shows as a little kid, through her GH spots as few years ago. That’s quite a ride. 
    • Damn I was hoping Lesley would be at Monica's memorial  Hoping GH gives Lesley an on screen memorial
