GH: September 2024 Discussion Thread

Agree 1000% it was the wrong way to go with that story. Her kid not being a Jax was also shortsighted by the show though. Even Ingo being gone is fine. Imagine their fabulous gay son verbally eviscerating his snotty sister, Joss.

I like the WSB Lady!

[Aragorn]

They spent money on this episode.

Her kid not being Jax's was one of the dumbest mistakes ever.  Even with the Ingo of it all, I still stand by that fact.  The conflict would have been so much greater than with Dante even.  It's not like Brenda or Dante even knew one another existed.  Instead, it's the dead Balkan's son kid.  Ugh.

[jasonminer1974]

IF VM ever comes back doi you think her Son will play Brenda's Son?

[carolineg]

I hope not lol.  Nothing against Kassius, but that would be weird to me.  It's a setup for failure since he really doesn't have any acting credits yet.  I think MB's son was one step of nepotism too far on GH.

Holly and the Jeep was cool!

Supposedly Korte is a fan of Anna as well. The problem is all their stories for her are miserable.

Brennan is still a glorified dayplayer to me and a waste of time. It was obvious he was just another thug in PM's Pikeman story, then they began muddling around trying to make him work as an actual love interest for Carly as the latest attempt at Jarly hit the skids.

I've long had plans for scheming gay Alec, lol. Though I think he would probably pal up with schemer Joss as her mini-me for a bit before coming into his own and turning over a slightly better leaf, a la Brenda.

Holly driving up in the Jeep was a moment of perfection to me in a day of several of those. It reminded me of a time when Roman saved Bo from the Torres family & Mrs. H was driving the getaway car.

I cannot think how long it's been since I've seen an extended action scene like that fight! After being mostly critical of Frank, I have to give some kudos there.

Marty not giving an inch, fine. Natalia really has a lot of nerve, but we knew this. Diane is so strict, but I kinda love her, although she is much tougher on Carly than she is on her pet client. 

And, Tracy!!! Loving it. She apologized. Talk about a SURPRISE!!!

Just imagining him breaking up a Joss relationship, and having both Brenda and Carly sticking up for their kids during the fallout. They can play all the beats of him going the Brenda redemption route after it all shakes out.

As far as Korte liking Anna, great. Why they have basically wasted Genie since Spencer’s death I don’t get. When you have these icons on your show, and they are well respected and can still bring it, use them. One of the things the last few months have done correctly is Alexis is back in the mix, and NLG shows she is still capable of being a central player.

I enjoyed all the action scenes today, made for a fun episode. Brennan sending the drone blast and Holly pulling up with a jeep to get everyone outta there was cool stuff. Jason should have killed Sidwell like he was about to until Lucky stopped him, looks like Holly’s sticky fingers has Sidwell otw to Port Charles as well. Wonder if he ends up being Natalia’s ex since they keep hinting at him being dangerous.

Jack and Carly >>>> CarSon round 2000 and dry ass Natalia and Sonny. I still hate Diane pushing Carly and Sonny to play up their fake romance alibi but loved Lucy commenting to Natalia how tired their reunion cycle is.

Martin no Tad rejecting Lucy and Tracy peeping the whole thing was also hilarious.

Sasha and Cody and Robert and Diane were snooze fests per usual.

Really nice scenes with Liz and Felicia talking about Lucky, Frisco, and Epiphany though. I was happy when Lucky called Liz at the hospital at the end, the Liason fans can stay mad lol I’m glad the show seems to be headed in my preferred ship direction.

Diane yelling at Sonny in a public place at letting Carly leave because his alIbi didn't hold water.was so stupid.

One thing about Genie is that supposedly she doesn't need this job. She loves the work & that's why she does it. No idea if it is true. But, if it is it might go aways toward explaining her not being ambitious about what Laura is or isn't doing. I love Laura & I think personally she is an excellent matriarch. I'm excited that she soon is going to have more family.

I am somewhat concerned, this is entirely spec, not spoiler in any sense of that word. But, what if Natalia's ex is Stilwell?

I thoroughly enjoyed today's episode.  As someone who first began watching GH in 1983 (with several long breaks) I never thought I would see and episode with Tracy, Robert, Holly, Felicia, Anna and Lucy in it.  I actually felt like I was watching GH.  I am looking forward to Lucky returning home and Elizabeth getting a story worthy of her.  I also like Anna and Jason. I don't want them to be written as a super couple I want it to be a big messy romance that they are fighting and everyone else hates.  The show needs some damn messiness and I have not enjoyed Jason this much since the 90s.  Plus we get Lulu and Lucas back with talented actors cast.  Having the Spencers back as a core family is long overdue.

I agree. If she had to have a kid, it really should have been Jax. And that would have always given her and Sonny drama. Or what if Jax's kid also idolized Sonny over Jax? It writes itself.

 

 PREACH!!!!

 

AMEN. Mama Bear Alexis (sober and all) is a force of nature and NLG snatches up my attention and dares me to look away when she's in that mode.
