GH: January 2025 Discussion Thread

Maybe with a friend, acquaintance, family, etc.  Not with the sister of the guy she cheated on that's very seriously injured right now.  That's not even realistic in a real life situation.   Maybe down the line Joss may have some sympathy and understand (doubtful), but I think everything is too fresh for Willow to find an ally today.  Willow should probably understand the emotions of Joss's boyfriend just being killed and her brother being near death-not trying to excuse the need to "follow her heart".

Don't get me wrong, in the heat of the moment Joss wouldn't be clear-headed, and WiIllow shouldn't seek sympathy.

Yes, realistically speaking people often don't recognize their hypocrisy when judging someone else for the actions done against a loved one.

From an objective standpoint, however, Josslyn should understand Willow's actions because she did similar. Both Joss and Willow were trash for their affairs, only the stakes were just higher for Willow's.

My point is that Josslyn was in no position to criticize Willow as entertaining as that scene was. Joss judging Willow would be the equivalent of Carly judging someone for concealing paternity.

Well, I would suggest there's more than one way to look at it. Michael's her brother, so in that sense it gives her "standing" to drag Willow & to offer the perfect comeback when Nina thinks she's insulting her by comparing her to her mother, which to her is the ultimate compliment. Also to me their situations were very different. Esme's sex tape destroyed Cam & Joss's relationship. It's true that it would have been better if Joss & Cam had had a conversation then, that they only had later, but Joss didn't kill a valid ongoing relationship since Esme had already done that. Even though they hadn't said words acknowledging that it was over, it was already over. Meanwhile I think Joss is hyper-focused right now & thinking 100% clearly. 

I don't think so & I don't think he will be. I think Michael will be the first victim of the Digitalis Serial Killer to survive, possibly because Dr. Isaiah Gannon realizes this may be another Digitalis attack & quick intervention saves Michael's life. 

They're just picking back up where Sonny was on that same balcony before & thought he "saw" Morgan in a kind of a vision. Remember?

Interesting points. 

I think there's growing support for Joss now because Willow's actions were worse, but in the months following the Dex affair, I recall mass backlash against Josslyn. I'm surprised to see the downplaying of Joss's actions these days.

*Note this is not an attack on your perfectly valid opinion, just an observation on changing support for Joss.

Holy [!@#$%^&*] are they really having Cyrus kill off Michael?! 
 

Willow and Drew truly don’t see anything wrong with what they did. It’s actually gross to hear them twist themselves into knots to anyone that would listen. I don’t even think they’ve even apologized. Like Willow really doesn’t see anything wrong with taking her son across state lines to be with her boyfriend without permission.

Drew calling out Carly for choosing this life was great. But it doesn’t change that you seduced and banged your nephew’s wife multiple times.

I used to think the Billy/Phyllis affair on Y&R was the one that pissed me off the most but it’s been overtaken by Willow and Drew.

Yeah... Drew still needs to get hit, but he wasn't wrong about what he said to Carly. Just like Tracy wasn't wrong back in 2010 lol

And the whore needed to get hit too. For like the millionth time. Seriously, this is why I'm glad Dex is dead. Because it really is well deserved karma.

The cliffhanger was really good. I hope this isn't the end for Michael though. As much as I don't like him, he deserves better than that. Sam did too actually.

I agree that Willow's affair was worse. But the way that Joss treated Cam and the way Cam was treated by GH, as a whole, was wayyy worse than the way that Willow's treating Michael. It really was one of the cruelest, most disgusting things I've ever seen in my life. Worse than anything Ron Carlivati ever did lol 

Hell, the kid's friggin grandmother took Joss' side

    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
