GH: October 2024 Discussion Thread

[Antoyne]

A deadbeat asking advice from another deadbeat. Just as annoying when Sonny was giving him advice. And Lucky immediately just happy to dip out on his son after having one conversation with him, is just bull. Awful.

Speaking of annoying and Sonny. This man just killed a man, and his daughter’s mother is in jail for it currently, I assume a few weeks ago in soap time and I’m supposed to enjoy him sitting around making googly eyes at the bigot

Reading all these comments and it fascinates me. I don’t want to watch perfect people, that’s boring and not true to what soaps are about. Now I question this production team in pulling off anything remotely about character. But I think it is way more in character for the Lucky that exists right now to want to run.

This was the teen who was so sure he would never be anything like his parents after he learned about the rape. Especially his dad. The fact that he has been running away from his family and his feelings for a decade could make for compelling watching. He grew up and made his own mistakes that he must contend with. This isn’t Tony Geary, JJ doesn’t seem the type to relish in Lucky not striving to be a better person like Tony wanted with Luke.

This is why he quit in 2011. He wanted Lucky to stop being angry/crying and re-connect with Elizabeth. Someone at ABC Disney said no. He then left.

Nothing we have seen so far even remotely compares to what was happening then. He was right, the entire show was mired in misery. They had the affair storyline, his horrible verbal attacks on Liz, the Irish story that also led to him falling in love with someone that was killed, Jake’s death. That was a lot in two years. He never said he wanted Lucky to be perfect, he just didn’t want to embody misery 3 days a week for another two years and he wanted the show to rebuild Liz and Lucky. But that’s not what Guza was doing at that point, and by all accounts JFP was fine with Becky being written out until the backlash.

 I agree, as I said in my post earlier. I don't think the day to day writing is very good for the show period but this reaction is in character for Lucky at this point. The idea of the arc is for him to grow past it.

I like Sonny and Natalia together. I think that they will have sex and then Elaine will take pictures of them doing it.

I like Carly and Brennan as a couple, and I usually hate Carly.

I want to see the Joss-Dex-Molly triangle.

I think you're thinking of Nurse Deanna, whose name I always remembered because it was like Deanna Troi on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Then I recently found out Nurse Deanna's last name is supposed to be Sirtis - as in Marina Sirtis who played Troi - so guess I'm not the only one who made the TNG connection lol.

So maybe that'll help you remember

OMG! That was really bothering me because I like her, but can never remember her name.

 

And I love that. And will use that moving forward.

 

And heehee the 3 degrees of separation for Genie.

Jason: This cannot be how it ends for Sonny

ME: It can when he kills in cold blood

I am so over Jason being ok throwing himself under the bus for Sonny & Carly. Jason does not care about his sons.

[Aragorn]

This episode was better than most Thursdays. 
 

Michael had Spinelli put a tracker on Kristina’s phone. Haha!

Sonny wants Carly and Donna to flee the country when he turns himself in!

Good Laura and Lucky scene.

[jasonminer1974]

Who got Blew up?

[John]

No One

Yes Jagger Cates went overboard but Sonny is a criminal and he took a father from his son & a brother from his sister. Sonny committed cold blooded murder. Lock his ass up.

[titan1978]

Again, missing the drama because they don’t want it too complicated between characters. Why hasn’t Jason really expressed any anger about Carly immediately compromising herself after he missed all that time protecting her the last time? I mean real, screaming anger.

I will give Guza some credit here- his team would never ignore something like that, because they loved pitting the titans against each other.
