GH: December 2024 Discussion Thread

Just thinking, if almost dying & having emergency surgery & being in ICU & losing a baby that was basically full term, so you'd been pregnant with it that long & your big sister dying & having a break up with your girlfriend who then leaves town, when you thought you'd finally found true love ... if the label for this is being coddled by the show & the fictional characters, right,  no one would ever want to attract any attention to their character. Please don't write for me, Valentini! (Sorry for the Faulknerian sentence.)

I agree with all of this. I’ve come to hate Kristina but she provokes a visceral reaction that I actually enjoy as a viewer. They seem to be intentionally taking the character down a darker path and I like it, I’m hoping that convo she had with Sonny a few weeks back leads to a full out mafia princess transition. Sonny needs an heir since they killed Morgan off, Michael’s a Quartermaine pansy and the two other daughters are too young and irrelevant. Kristina with her bonus Cassadine genes seems like the right choice to me and Mansi plays cold unhinged bitch better than anything else they have given her.

And it's interesting seeing it discussed so let me just add...out of all of Sonny's kids, I've always said that if anyone was heir apparent to him, it should be Kristina. So if they are finally going there, she might go love to hate for me rather than the hatred I have for her now. 

 

lol. That she doesn't. Which is why we all are counting the minutes before Molly snaps and give Kristina the slap she clearly deserves.

    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
