GH: October 2024 Discussion Thread

[Liberty City]

Why do I feel like this event does happen, it'll be what leads up into November Sweeps period.

[carolineg]

It should be a lead up into sweeps.  It should be an event that rocks the entire canvas, but it might not be depending on how much FV dislikes KeMo/Sam.

[Liberty City]

Mhmm. But, maybe Frank and co. will use to it prop other cast members, and give them the juicy material? Sam's exit and Lulu awakening?

[carolineg]

That seems most likely.  I still think the show is missing some very interesting conflict with Lulu/Dante/Sam, which seems silly and very GH.

[Liberty City]

I really would have liked to have seen the dynamics of Dante / Lulu / Sam, especially given all we've been given hints of (semi-forcibly) and even how Rocco would react with Sam now that mom has awoken.

[BetterForgotten]

It would be hilarious if AH and DZ have zero chemistry when Lulu awakes and they rush to bring Lulu and Dante back together. 

[Liberty City]

As much as I thought this: I don't think they would have cast someone, especially of Alexa Havins' caliber and name, just for them not to have chemistry. Know who would've had undeniable chemistry with him? Marci Miller.

It does feel like a missed oppurtunity, but at the end of the day I am not going to complain.

I was thinking that too.  It's nice to get a "name", but the most important thing is that the actress has chemistry with DZ.  I am sure AH does, but they did hire Rylan and she had very little chem with him.

Never change lol!  Marci probably would have had fire chem with DZ though.

[Liberty City]

Same. At the end of the day, give me familiar characters (even via recast) and those classic families.

 the chemistry wasn't horrible... but it also wasn't electrifying.

[carolineg]

That was all DZ.  He's basically a chemistry magnet.  He had chemistry with JMB and that didn't happen with any of her other million love interests.

 Again, he & Miller would been electrifying!!! I mean, I'm still shocked we never got Ava & Dante... two chemistry magnets!!!

It's funny, Mulcahey gave Sonny an out for doing horrible things; he wasn't on his meds. Where's Sonny's out for killing a fed in cold blood, someone many of his old friends cared about? Or are we to think what he did wasn't so horrible?

From what came before and after, Mulcahey's months were really good. The show was feeling so stupid, and he gave it some intelligence. Now it's back to feeling really stupid.

Alexa Havins never had a chemistry problem at AMC so I’d be surprised if that ended up being an issue. They are fools not to be playing a triangle with her and KeMo on opposite ends though, they were top of the pack when it came to sexiest women on daytime in the 00s.

I wish they had kept him as a consultant or something. Van Etten does not do good long term story beat play and misses obvious layups. I still can’t believe no one in production thought to make who shot Jagger a mystery, this could have played out all Fall

I could not care less about Sidwell/Carlo Rota, no matter how charming he was on 24 20+ years ago. The character is not that interesting. If they try to make him the new Cyrus hanging around forever or make him Eva LaRue's ex or something I am just going to go back under my covers lol. This show has one trick and one trick only.

[MichaelGL]

All of this.
