GH: November 2024 Discussion Thread

[Contessa Donatella]

So, am I the only one here, asking Where was the Pizza?!!! How can it be Thanksgiving if the Qs don't have to end up ordering Pizza?!! Sasha could have very early morning sickness & be unable to cook? Just grasping at straws.

Kristina has appeared in 8 straight episodes and in 11 of the last 13. Kristina has surpassed 100 episodes in a year for only the second time.

Molly has appeared in 7 of the last 8 episodes. Molly has appeared in 68 episodes this year, a new high for the character.

Its Nov 26th In PC. Thanksgiving hasnt happened yet

[Contessa Donatella]

OH! Okay then. I am amazed you know the date. But, thanks.

[Darn]

Soaps rarely celebrate a holiday after its passed unless it was already being celebrated so I’d wager we’re skipping Thanksgiving.

 

I’m loving Alexa as Lulu so much. Finally I can watch her play a character I don’t detest! And I really love that the first person she knows to see her is Rocco, I also love that she instantly recognized her son. She’s going to be a mess realizing it’s been 4 years and now her little boy is taller than her.

 

Not sure about her and Cody. He’s just so boring and a real generic character. He likes horses and lied to the nicest man in the world for two years. Oh and he almost effed his cousin. Give the man a PERSONALITY! Anything! Dear god. Make him the lothario @Vee has been begging for.

 

Really enjoyed Lucky and Liz investigating a bit together. I hope his presence gives Liz some of her spunk back. And I can already that Havins, JJ and Genie are going to gel well as a family unit, can’t wait for them to reunite.

 

Rick Hearst needs to never leave this show again. Ric is just so scummy, I live for it. The show was drowning in benign nice people for so long, it’s been such a breath of fresh air watching people come in to stir the pot or having existing characters fall to the dark side a bit.

[Vee]

I don't find Cody boring! I think Josh Kelly and occasionally even some of the writing imbues him with just enough personality. Sasha OTOH is rice paper. I do think JK and Alexa have some chemistry and I don't mind them being paired up for awhile as Dante grieves or whatever, but again I'm more concerned about Dominic getting screwed by FV again. It's his time to shine and that includes Dante and Lulu down the line, not him going under the wheels for another OLTL friend of Frank's. And I say that as someone who likes JK and wants Cody to continue on the show (with Tracy!).

Name one interesting thing about Cody. Quickly!

[Vee]

His wit, self-deprecating humor and easy ability to interact with live horses who eat into Genie Francis' guarantees!

[Aragorn]

He is uncle to James.

[Contessa Donatella]

His relationship with James. It is golden! And, it seems to me it is emblematic of the way he relates to all children, not just James.

[Darn]

I said “interesting”, people! But I suppose we all have different interpretations of that word. I just wish he had some bite to him.

[carolineg]

This is the best answer here!!

I think Josh Kelly is hot and charming which is more than I can say for half the cast.

[Liberty City]

I agree: the concept and direction of Cody at the beginning was a bit... misdirected, especially since it was clear Austin (who?!) & Britt were the ones with some palpable chemistry. But now some footing is being found with Cody. And Cody/Tracy, FTW!

[Taoboi]

lol but true.

I know most at SON have already seen this, but here is a refresher for anyone who missed it, yeah the brass okayed it and the actors nixed bra straps.

From the fan zoom with Josh and Amanda, November 2023, they said they don't want to show their characters in hot lovemaking scenes, because they are each committed to their real-life spouse, and they are concerned what will happen when their real-life children become teens and see GH clips online.

Here is a recap of that part of the zoom event:

“So…far, the writers and the producers are super respectful of that, and we’re very grateful, and we are willing to chemistry it up and make-out up and make it all good in that way. But in terms of side by side in a bed with bra straps, it’s a bit of a boundary for us.”
