I feel like some of the ideas of GH being terrified are inadvertently setting BtG up for a fall. I am reminded of a few years ago when Neighbours was revived and some Home & Away fans who were sick of the show were saying Neighbours was going to hurt it and Home & Away should be scared, etc. (it made no sense as they weren't even in competing timeslots) And look where we are today.

GH has many problems and has for a long time. ABC had the opportunity to step in and backed down, probably in part because viewers seemingly rejected the attempts at change. So now we're stuck here, and likely will be for the rest of GH's lifespan.

RIH, Cyrus

Please register in order to view this content

We definitely won’t be missing your annoying ass anytime soon. Finally, we’re rid of the whiniest bitch of a villain that I’ve ever seen!

But as glad as I am that Cyrus is dead, I would much rather someone like Alexis, or Danny or even Laura, had been the one to finally kill him, rather than Dex’s personal prostitute. I feel the character who had been on for over 20 years deserved that justice a lot more than the character, with no identity, that had been on for only 2 years  

And considering the way today ended, I imagine that by this time next year, Dex will be completely forgotten about and Joss will be someone else’s personal prostitute, Carly be damned. 

Speaking of Laura, those scenes between her, Anna and Jordan were pitiful. All the talking that Anna did about the credibility of the PCPD and then she goes and has a conversation like that? In what jurisdiction would a mayor, deputy mayor and police commissioner be more concerned about a Congressman and his annoying bald friend rather than a mob kingpin? I know people in Congress are trash, in general, but come on

And with all this talk about the Esplanade, hopefully it ends with people being shot, killed off or the Esplanade getting blown sky high. 

As for Chase and Brook Lynn… God, Josh Swickard is so hot

Again, I understand Amanda Setton’s POV. And it is a nice thing for Josh Swickard to do for his co-star. But yeah, this isn’t the right medium for her. Maybe it’s time to give ChaLynn a happily ever after and a miracle baby, once the secret about Gio comes out.

I think it's undeniable GH is going to be tough competition. They are timeslot competitors and it has a very loyal audience which is trained to watch almost anything. But I think GH is so somnambulant at this point that BTG may indeed be a contender.

Though to be fair, in this situation the "annoying bald friend" is basically a warlord who tried to kill the police commissioner, the deputy mayor's new love interest, and the mayor's son. It's a case of better the devil you know.

    • Seems like the Dobsons were aiming for a Joe/Sara/Justin triangle or, having decided that Joe would be killed off, Justin would be waiting in the wings. But that never came to pass and I don't think there was much reference to Justin/Sara as time went on.That was something that could have been used later on but Doug Marland may not have known or cared. Also, when the show went to an hour they could add a lot of characters and not rely on the stalwarts, hence Jackie/Alan/Elizabeth. And after Leslie died, Mike went into Dad mode with Hope. Hope/Ben never took off and Hope was replaced and then dropped and Ben moved on to Eve, whose romance with Tim fizzled and Jordan Clarke left (by choice?)

    • When I was a kid, I would watch DOOL with my mom. I remember Denise as Susan so well. And later, of course, on GH. How sad to hear she has passed. RIP.
    • I have to dig that scene up on YT. I'm glad they gave them some kind of happy ending, even if it was really late. Interesting! I remember Justin and Sarah being involved, but I either forgot or never caught their backstory. The girl with money and social position of course turns out to be Jackie. He sort of did to Sarah what Vanessa did to his brother! I do remember Justin started out as not the greatest guy. Kind of a horn dog. It's only when Ross comes on that he becomes the "good" brother. I only have some vague memories of Ben and Hope, mostly of when they were in a positive relationship. He certainly changed over time. "Chill" would be the way I would describe Ben (along with "handsome but kind of a yawn") for most of his time on GL, so hearing he once had a violent temper is very surprising.
    • Yes. That's called good writing.
    • interesting idea.  That makes sense, as MVJ seems to have set up each character development (traits) for future plot developments.
    • I really enjoyed today's episode. It showcased a lot of the other cast and I saw hints of storyline potential (Smitty & Bill). Martin definitely has some anger issues and I recall him being overly scared about protecting his family and having all the doors locked, coming out of one of his "dreams". There's obviously a lot going on there and I can't wait to find out more. I'm thinking June is going to be more than just the issue story of the week. I think she just might be related to one or more of our main characters. As for Tomas, yes, Alex Alegria is not the strongest actor, but he's pretty to look at and he emotes something. I'm just not sure what that something is yet.
    • No. Absolutely No. I don't know who this is... since it's just some random Twitter quote... But NO. The only parallel between OG Caroline's leukemia and Liam's tumor... is that they are both having cancer. That's it. Other than that... I see absolutely no similarities.  Caroline hid her sickness almost till the last moment. She was also giving the viewers signs that she is not well for days if not weeks before the diagnosis. It was not like Liam... falling down and hitting his head on a table and bam he has a tumor. Caroline's storyline broke our hearts, because of her attempt to live out the rest of her days with dignity and grace. It was written slowly and with care. What we are seeing right now with Liam is the complete opposite. It's begging the viewers for empathy and cheap tears. It's so in your face and trashy... I can't believe they are using cancer for something like this. Bradley Bell should never do terminal stuff again in his stories. It's borderline offensive to people who actually have lost relatives to cancer. To me it is.
