GH: December 2024 Discussion Thread

Unfortunately, Lulu did not give birth to Rocco either.  Britt did when she used Dante/Lulu's embryos to fake a pregnancy with Patrick.  I know....

[Liberty City]

Was it Patrick or Nikolas?

[carolineg]

Trapping Patrick was the initial goal then Britt hooks up with Nik and says it was an anonymous sperm donor I think.  So both were involved, but Nik never thought he was the child's father.

[Liberty City]

Ahh. Such a long, long time ago, whewwwwww

[Antoyne]

Oh Jesus! This [!@#$%^&*] show.

[carolineg]

I know.  I forgot Shawn D was in yesterday's Days episode, but I somehow remember this dreck lol.

Yeah.  Britt had the kid for a minute.  I think she said Brad was the donor for a bit too lol.  The kids name was Ben, I believe, before Rocco.

I love that Lucas was somehow the bad guy today because Drew and Willow are “in wuv”. Drew is such a slimeball. He genuinely doesn’t care one bit how anyone feels about banging his nephew’s wife.

Laura seems strangely calm about Lulu going off on her own.

BLQ wearing that hoodie in the bedroom while her hubby just had on a t shirt. My god, AS is DETERMINED to play a character that we’re supposed to believe enjoys sex, is as sexless looking as possible.

Intrigued by whatever Emma is hiding. 

Well Lulu still sucks for abandoning one of her kids for the other and making him lie for her. I guess good for Lulu never having to experience pregnancy weight gain or giving birth.

Sonny with chest pains YES!

There's modesty and there is ridiculousness.  Does anyone where a sweatshirt to bed?  Unless it's like freezing cold and you have no heat?  That just seems uncomfortable and hot.  At least put a t-shirt, a tank top or a sleep shirt on to make it believable.

I am mildly intrigued by what Emma is hiding, but I have the belief it will be a minor scandal for a few months and Emma will just turn into a regular heroine like every other legacy child on the show.  I am cynical I suppose.

I don't disagree with your Lulu point.  Just saying all Lulu's kids have wacky backstories that have nothing to do with her ever giving birth to them

[Contessa Donatella]

Yes, please do, offer some reason why you feel the way that you do.

[detroitpiston]

Lmaooo

Of course ReRon would write that kind of nonsense.

I’m not mad at Lulu running off to find Charlotte since everyone else was dragging their feet but she shouldn’t have asked Rocco to lie for her.

[Antoyne]

Ron wrote both of Lulu’s non pregnancy children didn’t he?

[carolineg]

I think Charlotte was an Altman/Passanante special.  Claudette (Bree Williamson) carried the baby and Nathan and Griffin?/Chase? (they are the same person to me) were teased as the father.  Claudette also slept with Valentin too, but that's not even the point of anything because she was just the surrogate to Lulu/Valentin's embryo situation.  Frank really tried to make Bree Williamson happen on GH lol.

[Vee]

Charlotte was Passanante/Altman. All to cement their and Frank's precious Valentin. But Ron also had a love for surrogate magic babies. IMO RC had likely been setting up the captive Robin carrying Lulu and Stavros' freeze-dried kid or something before he was fired based on the multiple embarrassing Stavros-related capers he did in 2013 and (I think) 2014 - he had Stavros obsessed with Lulu as his new 'Ice Princess' bride he wanted to impregnate, and they faced off with him the second time at the Crichton-Clark clinic where IIRC Drew/NuJason was also being held with Robin (pre-Billy Miller casting). Anyway, thank God that didn't come to fruition.

It's amazing to me how quickly she came and went, for someone who Frank adored. They must've gotten feedback on Claudette that rivaled anthrax because she vanished. I think she's supposed to be dead offscreen today? That character is even stranger to me than Jessica Tuck's art dealer/crime boss/whatever, who unlike Claudette/Bree did keep coming back. And Jessica Tuck could've actually played an interesting villain on this show.

I think it's partly intentional, to show how impulsive and rash she still is. I don't love her journeying off to find the mutant hellspawn but I understand it.

I don't believe Bree or Claudette ever belonged on the show, but that had to be one of the strangest character introductions I have ever seen.   The paternity saga was not only confusing, but involved Nathan, Griffin, and Valentin.  None of these males were captivating or long running enough to make me care.  Then all of a sudden the show forgets everything they told us for the last months about Claudette and just makes Charlotte Lulu/Valentin's baby.  Claudette wasn't a defined character to begin with and they just kept throwing more backstory on top of her.  I have doubts any actress could make that character work and certainly not Bree with her moderate level of talent and popularity.

I am not sure I have ever heard someone say they liked Claudette and if they did it was because they like Bree Williamson-not the character.

It's insanity to me that Valentin is still on the show all these years later.  I know JPS rarely appears and he usually crying about something, but none of his stories have been good.  I still don't know what/who/why Pikeman exists and that went on for over a year.
