GH: December 2024 Discussion Thread

[Liberty City]

Did you not see Tracy slamming her finger on the phone?  We all know one wrong move and everything goes wrong on smart phones.

[Aragorn]

Josslyn’s goodbye scene was cheesy. Based on Jason’s expression, he thought so too.

[BetterForgotten]

I felt more emotion and connection in Lulu’s reunion with Tracy than I did with her reunions with Laura and Lucky.

Nothing special about that scene at all. Honestly, I'm inured to these goodbye scenes on GH at this point. It's become The Death Show. It's bad enough when GH actors die, but when you add all these storyline killings on top of it? Too much.

It's hard to feel anything when you've started a Death-of-the-Month Club.

[Liberty City]

It's clear, to me, Elizabeth Korte, Chris Van Etten & their team took what they had for Sam's death, copy/paste'd it, and said "We did our job."

[Cheap21]

I just saw the episode where it revealed that Cyrus killed Sam. Why would he do that? Whats the motive? Also why was he monitoring Lulu?

 

And does this now count as Kelly Monaco's last airdate? I didnt think we'd actually see her. I thought they'd just show the body and a nametag, but we saw Sam. I wonder if all that hoopla surrounding her exit was just a stunt and she's still with GH in some capacity. Even if she isnt playing Sam, it could be interesting seeing her reprise Livvie. The way GH handled her was sloppy, confusing and ambgious

 

Also I was wondering where Laura's other brother was and then it pops up. It sounded like he finally ditched that accent but then MEK started to sorta speak with it again.  It sounds horrible and doesnt even sound real. He sounds like a comedien doing a caricatur

[Contessa Donatella]

IMO Cyrus has a bent way of thinking & it applies extra to any female he is related to. I think he killed Sam to make way for Lulu to get back with Dante. Thank god Laura finally put a peace bond on him. 

That is not happening. 

I thought GH was really good again today but what I want to post is this fan video.

I think it's because Laura and JJ Lucky never really had memorable interactions with Lulu, unless you count when she was a toddler, or when banshee Lulu went around berating and slut-shaming Liz.

Today was a good one… for reasons that I’ve already let y’all know about. Can’t help but wonder what William Lipton is thinking right now

I’m still enjoying the fallout from the Drew/Willow reveal, even though I don’t really agree with Tracy and Ned being the bad guys. It just doesn’t seem necessary. There were a lot of messy choices in this storyline but the bare bones of it have been really good so far.

Thankfully, Tracy’s reunion with Lulu cancelled a lot of the bad out lol it was great seeing the two of them together again. 

And even Michael had a bit of a backbone with Carly today. I was impressed.

I hate to burst your bubble but I really bet he could care less.

I'm there but the only bad person I'm seeing is Drew, but I still say they made him much more interesting. Nina might quality also for bad guy. The looks on her face & her tone of voice, I was afraid she was scaring Amelia.

I know Michael did the right thing & is the better man but his remembering when it happened to him & Morgan when they were children was heart-breaking, but a good use of history.

Tracy & Lulu finally together! It was magical. I liked it so much.

Of course I also loved Jason with Joss but you wouldn't. 

[Taoboi]

Hehe. Oh, you!!

 

Them facts. I know how I be with my phone. 

[Antoyne]

Jane Elliot is just fantastic. To go from sniping at Drew to that genuine warm excitement over seeing Lulu was flawless. What wonderful scenes. You’d never know AB never played Lulu.

Absolutely loving all the Drew and Willow fall out. Poor Nina she gets to be there for Willow right now with the ticking  time bomb that she was also sleeping with Drew.

Carly was in full mama bear mode. You can definitely tell it’s LW’s favorite way to play Carly.

@Antoyne cosigning that Lulu and Tracy’s reunion and Carly vs Nina and Willow were the highlights of the episode for me.

AH and JE had instant chemistry and mind melded me into believing I was back in 2006 watching Tracy and Lulu connecting again. This and Rocco were definitely my favorite of Lulu’s reunions thus far.

This might be the first time since I’ve tuned back in that Carly actually feels authentic in scorched earth mode too, loved her vs Nina and Willow with the kids awkwardly in the middle.

I still think the show has done itself a huge disservice not allowing Michael to stand in his own anger and vengeance. The explanation of him not wanting to traumatize his and Willow’s kids the same way Carly and Sonny did him and Morgan by constantly fighting over custody worked for me but only because I watched during that era. They could have at least let him rage out on Drew but we didn’t even get that, thank God Tracy and Ned got some good digs in at least.

Eden McCoy, Kristina Wagner and Finola Hughes did nice work reacting to Dex’s death but I was just never invested in the character enough so it all rang flat for me. I did like Jason being there for Joss though.

I do love Lucky supporting Liz in the aftermath but I had to laugh at the ridiculousness of Portia letting him sit in on a serious HR meeting, that would never happen IRL.

[Jdee43]

I don't like how they are implying that Felicia could be Cyrus's next victim

If they want to kill off a vet for shock value, they should kill off Olivia. It would give Ned and Lois story, and push Dante more to the dark side

Awww at seeing Dex, Joss, Gio, and Trina together in the tree lot. Woulda coulda shoulda. lol.

 

I had seen little things about the Liz/Lucky scenes. So I was not sure what I expected. Or how I would feel. But...I find my feelings mixed. It just seem like such a meet-cute. And when said meet-cute did not feel forced...which is how I liked meet-cutes...it really holds up and draws you in. JJ and RH are just so prefect together at points so it's funny to watch them dance around each other. And the scene with Lucky singing intercut with the flashback was sooo well done. But...perhaps it's just the fact that it's not my favorite pairing of Liz's that is on the current canvas. But I can be seduced into it. In any case, I love all this screen time for Elizabeth on my TV.

 

FRAK YOU, KRISTINA! So you feel nothing about throwing that rude comment in Molly's face. Alright...I won't feel bad when Molly FINALLY slaps her in the face. And I liked that Molly put Alexis in check. Kristina wants to start again, when they should be putting their differences aside due to Sam's death...well...as another brunette with great hair used to say...GAME ON. 

 

Lulu as the C plot = meh. I would rather see Laura with HER DAUGHTER, but I still did like that Laura was talking out her feelings. And I see Martin has his accent back. 

 

And so...the rumor IS true. Cyrus killed Sam. So he's Dead Man Walking. And I guess we know why Dex is on his way out the door...
