GH: September 2024 Discussion Thread

Sonny absolutely did a very intentional "apology tour". He went from person to person saying how he couldn't believe he didn't realize what was going on & more, including knowing he'd been awful. Now I hate the man, always have but when credit is due. 

JGL/Blaze said something I found of interest. When she knew it was her last day, she checked the schedule to see if she could have an early day. There were 55 items. Then more were being added. She was in Scenes 1  through 23 and 73! Lol.

When you put it like that, they should be at odds a lot more. Because in a lot of cases, there’s nothing more that a sanctimonious, hypocritical person hates than someone who’s just like them. 

The scene that I was imagining practically writes itself:

Joss (shrieking): He cheated on you. He broke your heart. How can you forgive him?

Carly: The same way that Cameron forgave you!

The thing is, unfortunately if you ask me, Cam really did forgive her & basically just shrugged it off & went on his merry way. Probably the worst part of the situation Joss created with Cam was that he & Spencer nearly had a big falling out. His girlfriend, Joss, turned out to be temporary, but friendships like he & Spence seemed to have can, if you're lucky, last a lifetime.

Well, I'm not there for dissing Laura & Kevin, hey, the guy is pretty great  But, I do, agree, totally, that in this instance Jason does make a whole lot of sense. 

I knew yesterday, in a flash, that Carly was NOT going to ask Brennan, no, once she had the 411 from Brennan, that either Jason was going to volunteer himself & his services OR THAT Carly was going to ask him. And, then, of course, he would say YES. Jason's devotion to Carly literally knows no bounds or limitations. And that is what got all of the Jarly "feels" going yesterday. Goosebumps!!! If you ask me, possibly, GH is back, baby.

I did think tying Tracy’s more mellowed state to her losses was a great way to move the character in a new direction. But I prefer her with bite. She was getting a little too Emma Snyder on the farm for me. There could be a happy medium.

I think part of the issue is there is so little flow that things happen out of nowhere that involve character behavior. This is a soap, we should see the beats of any major evolutions. Once upon a time we would have seen her grow and struggle with it. We would see Kevin and Laura dealing with being late in life parents to a baby. We would see Sam doing anything.

OK, but what we're seeing isn't a happy medium. Making Tracy obnoxious isn't a happy medium.

In addition, ALL of this baby talk with Brook Lynn is ridiculous. WTF would BL open herself up to Tracy this way regarding having children? She wouldn't.

Let me know when Brook Lynn discusses having babies with her damn husband.***

***Just a reminder that I don't want ANY more babies on this show.

I wrote the above post before Brook Lynn had a conversation with Chase FILLED WITH CLICHES about having a baby.

Lol. Just checking.

I admit that that crossed my mind. More in a 'wait! Are they going to have time for Laura to find Lucky before GF goes on her vacation?' than 'GF is going on her vacation now?'

 

But again...I was surprised that Laura was going to search for Lucky with Kevin in tow because I honestly thought it was going to be Jason that goes to get him. And look at how it's shaping out. lol.

 

 

Indeed.

 

A Granny who can kick butt though.  

 

But heaven forbid Laura has a story which as mentioned above would have more stakes than the run of the mill 'Jason to the rescue!' It was why I was surprised and excited when Laura said she was going. I guess we can't have nice things, can we?

    •  Yeah, he is still dressed like Martin. He looks great, though.  Cute picture. Sober up, cause we need the tea.
    • Well, Claire did rig Rick's test results, but it was to flunk. They actually managed to get his correct results back after they were thrown into Cedar's furnace...I think? Everyone knew Claire changed them and Rick passed so that rewrite never made sense.   I agree. Pratt always seems "edgy" on screen (and her Locker Room interview prooved that it came from her personality.) I liked Claire causeing trouble and love Meta ringing her beads. Its just too bad that Abby left and they kinda just forgot Claire existed. 
    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
