GH: January 2025 Discussion Thread

[Contessa Donatella]

You typed Chase but you meant Dante, right?

[ranger1rg]

Yeah, I did...Going to edit it now LOL

Why on earth would Kai need to be in the hospital overnight for a shoulder dislocation?

[BetterForgotten]

The writing for Trina/Kai is just awful and clearly giving them a bone is just box-checking from FV and these writers with little to no real thought behind it. 

I hope Tabyana gets on her agent to start finding her better work in streaming or film. GH is not cutting it. 

[ranger1rg]

He wouldn't. Most shoulder dislocations are treated in the ER or even at Urgent Care. Just unbelievably poor writing on a show called General Hospital.

[carolineg]

Seriously, people on this show have been discharged quicker for gunshot wounds.

To receive balloons and teddy bears?

Apparently -- just like every future NFL star.

Well, generally speaking, another good day on GH, but ... 

But #1 it is so hard to see Carly not in full-on MamaBear role!!! I get it, she realizes that the situation with Michael is potentially so dire that she cannot take any chances, so she is risk-averse for now & that is not the Carly we wish we were seeing but she has to just suck it up & live with it, so we do, too. 

But #2, has Chase lost his mind? There were so many different things he could have said to Willow, but, no, he just totally & completely dropped the ball. Willow was apparently apart from Drew for enough time that she actually reached an introductory level of self-awareness & had some insight into the decisions she's made & why, which was nothing short of remarkable. And, instead of reinforcing that or even leading her to the next step in thought, he basically just nodded & asked her to pass the butter. And, by that I mean said nothing of any consequence, at all. 

No number at all because it's so obvious & such a throwaway: Kai, in GH, in bed, in a room, with a dislocated shoulder? Everyone is right about this particular bit of stupidity. There's no way he'd be hospitalized!

But #3, Nina is saying things we never thought we'd hear her say. Sure, she is jealous of Drew & angry because he's winning with Willow & she's not. But, still, it's so odd to hear Nina make what is basically a decency argument with Willow & to suggest that there are lines that one should not cross! We've known Nina for years, and this is new. 

[Taoboi]

Well we gotta get her to be a target somehow.

Today's episode was somewhat disappointing compared to the past couple of days, but Tracy still the highlight.

[Taoboi]

Yeah...I'm feeling that. 

 

ETA: And then my girl walked through the door. FINALLY!!!

Tracy was the highlight of the episode. I’m gonna need her to just keep reading all of these idiots. It was mentioned I believe in the Leslie thread by @DRW50. But I really love how the Quartermaines yell at them for keeping Michael out of their lives when Sonny is literally a mobster and Jason a hitman, when the most I ever saw the Q’s do in the 2000’s was argue comically or get killed off.

Willow finally having a moment away from Drew to actually do some introspection was actually shocking and welcoming. A nice change from what the characters been doing.

Drew really can’t be long for this world. Too many people don’t even see him as romantically interested in Willow but more as a creep trying to control her. Had to love Tracy all but telling Sonny to off him yesterday

Yeah, I was watching those Alexis/Curtis scenes and went BOOM! ANOTHER SUSPECT FOR THE DREW'S MURDER LIST!  

[Contessa Donatella]

Just as some of us are watching very hopefully for Sonny & cardiac arrest, I am very much afraid we are going to be disappointed. But, in like fashion, I think that you Drew Murder dreamers are also going to feel that same disappointment. Wouldn't it be a kick in the teeth if no one is going to die & we continue to be stuck with them, and I guess them with us. After all, they might wish for a better audience. Nyah, that's just crazy talk. As fans go, we are primo.
