Yeah. I could almost find an excuse in my head for Lois's actions, but even I would be hard pressed. The best I got was that Lois made a bit show of showing off Gio and the rest of the family under PM's run which gave off a vibe of a secret...just not that she was hiding a baby from her daughter. And that...I feel like the writers are going to say that she maneuvered Gio onto the canvas because she's always known where BLQ's baby was. And I just don't see her keeping BLQ completely clueless on the baby's whereabout all these years.

 

Where's the Carly gif of her saying I don't buy it. I like seeing Rena and Amanda in a story, but I expect this to have the same reaction/backlash as Peter is Anna's son and Cody's is Mac's son. And at least with Cody and Mac, they were able to find a way to make that work.

Nah.  It will all turn into a bunch of drama less nothing.  Gio will be so happy to have 2 alive parents he will be the grandson/great-grandson whatever the Q's have always wanted.  Everyone will be mad at Lois for 5 minutes, but then totally understand giving the child to a widowed woman that was sad was for the best.

I mean, I swear I remember Olivia, Sonny, Brook Lynn and Lois talking about Gio's mom finding out she was pregnant after her husband died.  Did Gio's fake mom run around with a pregnancy suit for months?  While playing for Carnegie Hall?  I need to know about Gio's dead mother tbh.

The only way I could see this story *almost* working is if Lois reached out to Ned and Ned/Lois decided where the baby should go.  Then, after years and Gio losing his mother Lois had regrets and started slowly moving Gio into the fold so BLQ could eventually meet her long lost son.  Although, Ned seems none the wiser on this so that's just fanfiction.  Again, it would create appropriate drama between Ned/Lois/Olivia/Dante/Brook etc.

Well he has enough power to keep looping JPS back into his role of Weakest Cassadine ever so...but seriously...

 

Thank you for all of this tea. I did not know that MB had even had one. It does put the potential of his breakdown story under PM in perspective.

I was just about to say...wait. Ned knows??? lol. I mean that would be cool if he had done it in the past. But unless the writers just do something sloppy, it does seem like fanfiction at this moment with what's been shown on screen.

 

It's almost making me what to go back and see if I can find the Brooke/Chase wedding scenes to see what Lois said about Gio's family again to see if it feels like a made-up story. Almost.

Tracy being at the heart of this would make sense. Or Olivia. They both have mob ties that could further justify wanting to keep Gio safe.

And now I've realized Tracy is a great grandmother to a 20-year-old. It is one of those moments where I wonder if they will even ponder the dynamics beyond having Ned joke about her being "great-granny."

I think Chase is a decent enough B-player, maybe paired off with Sasha if they are both staying around (unless they de-relate her from Cody), but maybe just don't have him at the Nurses' Ball again...

JPS also has an extremely vocal fanbase. By the end I don't think Howarth and Easton did. Not to that level, anyway.

From what I can tell, I believe it. So many people still want Vanna to happen. I was a fan maybe, but I'm over it at this point. Especially if it reduces Anna to Whiny Anna who I really do not like. 

 

I agree. But I just recently noticed that now he has no family in town. I don't want them back, but it just made me go Hm. But I'm here for always having that Good Guy/Hero archetype...usually a cop...on soaps.

I'm sure we'll see Violet again...

Lack of family probably should be a reason to write the character out, but he might be better off on his own given what a drag Finn was.

I still see some fans talking about how he was the only one who loved Liz's kids and Lucky can never compare. They must really be committed.

Ssssh.

 

Even if this baby storyline was to blow up him and BLQ, he does have friendships with Dante, Jordan, and the PCPD. But I am shocked I am just realizing how slowly he has been isolated enough to be written out...almost impossible a year or two ago.

 

Well...all soaps need that character that isn't related to anyone.

      This is 100% correct.  It was even on the nightly news where the US Government would not let the cast and crew travel to Egypt because it was deemed not safe.  The Achille Lauro hijacking took place on October 7, 1985, when the Italian ocean liner MS Achille Lauro was hijacked by four men representing the Palestine Liberation Front off the coast of Egypt, as she was sailing from Alexandria to Ashdod, Israel. The location shoot was probably scheduled to be filmed in mid-October to air throughout November with a two week tape to air date.  Remember on the show they did some in studio scenes doubling for Egypt before shifting the action to Arizona.  It was an awkward end to a truly bizarre storyline.

      Coronation Street had a very good story where one of the characters befriended a man who she later learned had been involved in her husband's death - when told right it can be very powerful (not like AMC trying to make it a romance). ATWT almost had a big fire in mid-1994, so this seemed to be a "thing" with P&G at the time. I guess it fits the disaster backstage atmosphere.

        @jmgaw did not refer to Luke and Laura. Throughout 78 GH's ratings continued to rise as AW's fell. That turnaround was getting a lot of attention in the soap press with Scotty/Laura, Rick/Leslie/Monica etc . So the 90 min decision was a reaction to that. I guess the thinking was that 60 min expansion had worked so starting AW a half hour before might keep viewers from switching to GH at 3pm. I don't think anybody really thought it would work. The most sensible solution would have been to expand The Doctors and hope for a GH like turnaround, but for reasons unknown TD never went to an hour.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      Hotel no doubt benefited from the Dynasty lead in and didn't move until it was jettisoned to Sat night wasteland to play out a final season. Maybe it should have been moved earlier to perhaps bolster another night and allow ABC to nurture another show in the post Dynasty timeslot when the former was still a ratings winner.

      Who is going to say, "I'm headed home to watch The Chew?!?!" One of the most ridiculous names ever. I didn't watch AMC or keep up with it towards the end, but OLTL still had life in it and could have gone on. OLTL 2.0 was entertaining and worked because RC was not involved. A real shame that did not work because I think the show could have gone in good directions.
