GH: October 2024 Discussion Thread

[Vee]

I hated Ethan being forced as Luke's child (something I feel certain TG insisted upon despite several different creative teams feinting at making him Robert's) and I hate the infidelity retcon they crafted for it, but there was a real interval of time where it would work. Here, just like with Dominique and Mac there isn't so far as I can tell. It's just FV and CVE and co. not caring much about the timeline.

Holly was onscreen in story for almost all of 1992 to the summer of '93. Like Dominique, there was no viable interval in which she could've carried a child to term. Unless they claim she pulled an Adam Chandler and jacked some of that Scorpio jizz from a sperm bank on her way outta town, which while I could buy the more conniving Holly of the last 20+ years doing it, would be once again ruinous to her character.

They had some scenes last year when Felicia and Holly went off to rescue nu-Ethan at some sort of auction and Tracy was already there trying to bid on him too to save him as well.

And if you like veteran characters interacting there's this gem from 2009 with Luke, Holly, Tracy, Monica, Edward and Alice the maid

He was on for like 2 days, you didn't miss much. They were all on together, I forgot about that silly caper.

All these years later seeing Luke sitting as the lord of the Q mansion still makes me queasy. 

[Dion]

Yeah I loved that scene where they went to Robin and she was flipping through her old journals and was like "oh no can't be my dad, he was here in Port Charles fighting against Mr Big" or something like that

[Vee]

Me too. Edward and co. were just too accepting of it.

Honestly right now I'm 50/50 that Holly is straight up lying to Sasha for her own reasons. Maybe she doesn't want Cody with her daughter for another purpose, because who exactly would they be pairing either of them with unless this is short term angst? This would also allow them to once again cement the odious pairing of Robert and Diane by painting Holly as the forever deceiver.

There is also the fact that (forgive me if this has been mentioned) Sasha swapped in her own hair sample to mask Cody's DNA connection to Mac maybe a year ago. Yet Sasha's showed no Scorpio DNA.

This does seem more likely. They seem to just want to stall out beats of the Sasha and Cody story in any way they can (I know they had no choice to stall some of the paternity reveal with Mac but they likely would have for a while anyway).

[Vee]

Why this has been a going concern across several writing teams is baffling to me. It's not like they're some controversial frontburner pairing. At least with PM it seemed clear he had intended to dispense with Sasha originally.

[DRW50]

I wonder what he would have done (maybe the Tracy/Cody pairing).

They're not giving Sam many lines these days, but let's face it, Kelly Monaco is barely trying.

Well given the list of inconsistencies already listed online, that can just be added to the list.
