GH: March 2025 Discussion Thread

[detroitpiston]

i enjoyed Chase having a go at Lulu on Brook Lynn’s behalf lol, first time his character has been interesting to me. I hope they use this Dante and Brook Lynn secret baby plot to activate a more dangerous and scheming side to him.

I can’t remember the last time I was so unbothered watching one of my favorites on their deathbed

Been loving the moments of Carly with Felicia, Jason and Sonny though. I need Carly to dump Brennan ASAP this loser couldn’t even shoot a bullet at Valentin at least? Alcazar and even Jax would never be such punks.

Honestly none of this Valentin stuff has worked for me. I don’t get why Sonny didn’t kill him, why he came back to Port Charles, the weird scenes with Lulu and Laura, whether his telling Sonny that Brennan was behind the med swap is a serious retcon or just his character lying, etc. Its all just a convoluted flop for me.

The rest of the show feels like its just aimlessly plodding along.

How come no one is trying to call Joss to tell her that her mother is in the hospital?

I think he was last on in November when Heather saw him. Ace has had a scene with Lucky but no scene with Lulu.

[Contessa Donatella]

Absolutely right about Joss!!! Thanks for keeping up with how long it's been since Baby Ace.

What they're doing is making Valentin less bad & in the process they are making NuJack worse. It's a kind of a swap. And, the reason you see Plodding is because that's one of the things these writers do & they do it well Plot plot plot = plod plod plod. BTW, NuJack is recurring. OldJack was recurring UNTIL they began the romance, when they moved him to contract. So, what does that tell you about the lifespan of Jackly?

Yeah, that's what I see, too. I know JPS isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I like him as Valentin. It's just that Frank allows writing that makes the character irredeemable -- and then saves him anyway. He never knows when to let go of an actor.

[Contessa Donatella]

Uh, let go of an actor? What do these foreign words mean?!!! LOL! I mean, he wants to keep everyone, forever! Given enough time I think he literally would have a cast of a thousand. Nyah, not even Frank!

I laughed at Jason telling Carly her relationship with Jack is over

these characters are in their big 50’s still doing the toxic life interfering merry go round. Lucas giving Carly hell for sticking beside this clown was good too

I’m glad Ava told Alexis she’s enabling Kristina’s delusions at this point. I’m ready for Kristina to go fully unhinged at this point, her scenes with Lucky and Dante are the only other times she’s tolerable.

Loved Lucky telling Liz he’s not going anywhere, hopefully he sticks by that and we get happy LnL2 for a minute.

Daniel Cosgrove is oozing sleaze in this councilman role. I support anyone giving Laura hell tbh and Drew does need an ally.

I’m really enjoying Portia being blackmailed by Drew and her odd little friendship with Ava.  BK deserves something fun to do and dare I say she and CM have decent chemistry. I’d be here for a Portia and Drew rump after everything blows up and Curtis dumps her for or cheats with Jordan.

Curious to see what Nina finds in Drew’s safe.

Trina and Kai remain a snoozefest

I had no idea this was the same person, wow….

[Khan]

I think we've found our culprit for the big "Who Killed Drew Quartermaine?" storyline, and his name is Ezra Boyle.

[carolineg]

I thought the same thing.  I would say it might be a fun, short term role for DC, but we obviously will be stuck with him until GH gets cancelled so that's great.

And I think they are going there with Kristina/Lucky and I am not thrilled with that.  Liz and Lucky seemed so happy today.

[Antoyne]

Oh god I haven’t watched today. One quick way to make sure I continue not caring for Lucky is Definitely to put him with Sonny’s unstable spawn.

GH A theoretical To Do list of Frank Valentini

1. Trains must be on time.

2. Create a new set.

3. Repurpose an old set. (the older the better)

4. At a level of paranoia, worry about leaks & how to prevent them.

4a. Consider alternate means of getting actors to learn their lines. Paper scripts are a main source of leaks.

5. See if it's possible to tape 11 episodes in one day.

[Vee]

Of course Frank would get around to trying it. I guess I spoke too soon, but I'm still hoping it's nothing. Hopefully it'll come and go if it does. I can't see Jonathan sitting around for being denied LNL2 again.

I wouldn't even mind Lucky/Kristina as a spoiler for a bit if I didn't feel Frank was determined to push his preferred actors above all else. See also: Valentin, Natalia, etc.

It's just my speculation, but right now Kristina seems to be very open to Lucky's advice and not screeching *much*.  He also calls the baby Adella, which makes me think he believes Kristina's POV about the baby is correct.  Meh.  

JJ seems much happier in scenes with Becky so we will see where this goes.

[Antoyne]

Oh I didn’t know he calls the baby the wrong name. Ugh get him out of here.
