Sadly, no one. 

Jackie Zeman had such a special spark about her, even as the last 20-25 years of the character didn't know how to use her. So hard to replace.

Sometimes I wonder if the grueling and confusing taping schedule makes that spark very difficult for younger actors to have, compared to some of the '80s or the '90s.

Gio and Emma 

Please register in order to view this content

They were really sweet and dorky today and I liked that. I'm looking forward to seeing where the two of them go from here. And hopefully, they remain in Trina/Kai's orbit as well.

As for Charlotte, she's just as big of a pain in the ass I remember. Too bad she couldn't just go away with her toolbag father. We seriously dodged a bullet with that Jake/Charlotte pairing. And knowing Frank, possibly a Jake/Charlotte/Wyatt teen triangle. 

They wrote letters. And in some cases, attacked them in public 

I'm still not sure that she even has a heart

Giovanni Mazza has really come into his own as Gio, and it looks like GH did a good job taking their time with him. He's been really good. The stuff with Emma has been excellent, but GM has also been strong in scenes with Amanda Setton.

 

Eden McCoy has never been able to show warmth and sensitivity as Joss. She can't do it.

Yeah, that was my point. 

That is certainly true. 

I just wish & hope that Frank cares as much about his sets & his block taping schedule as he does for the real talent, his people, the actors, but also the support people & of course, also the crew. I worry about how much stress they are under.

Agreed.  I say kill off Chase and rid of that family once and for all.  I wouldn't mind a Brook Lynn/Dante/Lulu. 

Amanda Setton was once again really good in Monday's episode - I think this should be her Emmy submission. Would love to see her get nominated for this episode. 

I'm officially on the Gio/Emma train after today's episode.

Jackie really brought a passion to her and played Bobbie’s two sides of optimism and also cynicism really well. It is so interesting seeing her in 1978 episodes being really nasty to teenage Laura, and also bubbly and warm as a student nurse in the same episodes. It’s not a basic level schemer, Marland, Monty, and Jackie keep her rootable. I always liked her but I did take for granted just how good Jackie was as Bobbie. The hole in the heart of the show when both she and Genie were undervalued and gone in the 2000’s was noticeable.

Joss is no Bobbie, she has too much of her self-righteous mother in her. She is specifically a daughter of Laura Wright’s Carly.

GM has absolutely come into his own; that easy chemistry he began to display at the Q mansion through last year has blossomed further. I do think both he and Braedyn Bruner are really talented (the howls that Robin's daughter would never be a troublemaker fall on deaf ears for me), but I fear they'd both get blanded out stuck together romantically on FV's GH. I would keep them tight as friends and maybe more briefly, but instead play them around with a lot more people and let Gio go off the rails for awhile, and bring on new and more immediately vibrant and fleshed-out younger characters for each of them (and let Gio and Trina have that fling). You can always let Gio and Emma make a go of it for real later on if you choose, but why limit things so quickly?

This Alias Joss thing is for the birds. I'd let it implode along with Brennan and write Joss out for awhile. Eden works hard but I just can't do this anymore with this trajectory for the character. She needs a break no matter who is in the role when she returns as a lighter comic schemer, be it Eden or someone else.

      Did anyone see this? It was really good and far more important to the future of the MCU than people expected. The fact is its not a Thunderbolts film but stealth

        This was definitely Yelena's movie. I love how she was utilized

      A lot of very interesting commentary, thanks! Thoughtful, considered, etc.  I found myself chuckling since as a current fan of GH one thing we lack is romance. Here, you're complaining about too much. I sure get it when it manifests as Fight about G, make up, Fight About G again. That's a stuck couple, right? Who needs it?!!!  Wrong Donna, yeah, sorry, it has to be survived. The Right Donna DOES return.  Criticisms of Felicia Gallant .... No comment.

      Brooke was a commercial mainstay back in the day.. she probably made more money and treated better doing that then how she was sort of treated by the show during her time on the show. Ironically.. Kelly was born and raised in the Chicago suburbs

      I am probably veering more toward the classic thread, but I felt like her original run had her more as a moral voice for the Quartermaines than was needed (I thought her connections with Sonny and Brenda made more sense).  Sonny, Carly and Jason are all suffering the consequences of being too prominent for too long. They are above any relationships due being unable to form human connections. I do still wonder just what their original plans were for Jason this time, if they even had any.

      Perhaps Lujack/Beth should have been the other couple involved in that location story with Tony/Annabelle instead of Claire/Fletcher or Jim.   Since Lujack was a Spaulding, the whole fallout could have caused him to further distance himself from having anything to do with Spaulding and Alexandra and as a result, pushes Beth away and potentially back in Phillip's direction. Out of the three Pam Long major mystery/action stories in her first stint.. the fishing mystery story was probably the best... although I did kind of enjoy parts of Infinity and the cabin mystery stories as well.

      I’m now realizing all of Nick and Sharon’s screen time last month all revolved around Phyllis and then they took a “trip” to visit Noah and still haven’t been back? That’s super lame. They should be involved in a lot more and COULD be, especially where any of the Newmans are concerned (Sharon in particular, since I don’t care much for Nick unless he is in the presence of Sharon).

      Now, you are just not being grateful for the right things!!! There was not even ONE Elvis on velvet!!!! I want to say how magnificent I think it was that we are so unified in our condemnation of the show giving little Ally to Sam & Amanda, so quickly & relatively young & so newly married. Paul, here, I love your description of a different couple that they could have been.  Xanthe, I similarly love your suggestion here, a GREAT one, of how if they simply MUST do the bambino thing how they could have made it better by giving Amanda a very realistic struggle with becoming a mom, etc.    So, I'm sorry that most of us would put Sandra Feguson/Robinson smack in the middle of any pack, as average, but it's nice that some of us saw more, substance, when we got to Brunette Amanda!!  FAST FUN FACT, gleaned from a Locher room: Tucci is not only lucky enough to be Stanley Tucci's baby sister but she & Lorna #1, Alicia Coppola are besties & godparents to each others kiddos & talk on the phone every day.

      Sharina?  @alwaysAMC I am glad you've kept writing about the Brent story all the way through. I think that Beaty may have had to briefly leave again, rather than scenes being aired out of sequence, but I'm not sure.  You are right that the reveals of Brent's various reasons for being what he was bog down the end of the story a bit, although based on what is to come in 1996 I still kind of wish Beaty had stayed another year.  I'd forgotten J and Michelle were tied to the end of the story. This J is generally just gross. I don't really remember much of anyone caring about Nadine dying outside of her family. The worst part was Frank just giving a rose and saying it was from Harley, which made me very mad at the time. I am not sure if Beth Ehlers was asked to return and declined. Luckily this is addressed when she does return.   I felt like it was one of those stories that was done via mandate - trying to keep the ratings gains they had, via more location shoots, more adventures, more secrets, etc. Tony, Annabelle and Jim were thrown in as they were meant to be important to the show at the time.

      April 28: Leslie tells Eva "I know all about the Articulettes. Honey, please. I lost my virginity with Anita playing in the background, baby." Who knows what she meant by that.  I had assumed that it meant that the music was playing on a device in the background, and not live, but who knows. Leslie has spun so many tales.
