I thought today had a nice mix of plot-driven scenes (with the car crash aftermath, Kristina's inadvertent confession to Lucky, and Lucky's reaction) and intimate character moments. I love when the show remembers its own history, and those scenes with Emma and Anna helped to establish Emma's motivations and showcased Braedyn Bruner's best acting to date.

I fell behind GH so am only up to March 10 but have enjoyed March so far, so thought I'd do a quick post before this monthly thread heads off to the archives.

I like Emma getting involved in the crypt drama and that someone on the writing team remembered that during the poisoned water thing, Edward gave up the cure Tracy stole for him in order to save Emma, which gives Emma a plausible reason to actually care about what happens to the Q remains.

Portia changing Heather's test results came back and Drew is dangling it over her head. I'm glad she immediately went to Ava for help and is now getting legal advice from Ric.

I am slowly warming to the idea of Gio being Dante and Brook-Lyn's even though I don't like the compound SORASing and retcons that it creates. Lulu and Brook had an interesting confrontation after Lulu found out about Brook's baby. I also like the respect that Tracy has developed for Gio too.

Sidwell finding the knife Helena used to kill Alexis' mother and that whole thing was weird but interesting.

Joss and her spy training...meh

Charlotte coming back to Port Charles...meh

Looking forward to binging the rest of the month! (I did have a sneak peek at a recap so I know about Kristina causing Ric and Liz to have a car accident and Emma chaining herself to the crypt etc)

-- Suspension of Belief, Problem #1:

     I get the story with the Quartermaine crypt, but what's up with the idea that a building demolition crew can just show up and destroy it? With human remains inside? It's all just ridiculous.

-- Suspension of Belief, Problem #2:

     That Diane is really happy with that thing they put on her head and called a wig.

I didn't hate the whole crypt thing, but honestly, what was the point of it all if it was just gonna be wrapped up in a nice, neat little bow like it was today?

They could have at least made Gio and Emma have their first kiss or something lol

And, Liz and Lucky's final scene...

Here I am with - you guessed it - nitpick. My friend the expression is suspension of disbelief, not belief.  What you're trying to let go of is the impulse to say, That is just unbelievable. 

 

The writing for Emma today was so good she needs to buy the writers a steak dinner.  I mean, talk about major "using history" writing! I was literally impressed.

Patrick to Emma:  You've got to drink this, okay? It's gonna make you feel better. Good girl. Good girl.

Patrick to Tracy: I don't know how to thank you.

Tracy: It wasn't me. It was my father. I thought I could, um, trick him into taking the medicine, but he was one step ahead of me, like always.

Patrick: Can you wave to Mr. Quartermaine and say thank you?

Tracy: [Chuckles] Daddy hates it when I'm emotional. He... he always says there's no reason for sadness.

March 31, 2025: Emma explains to Anna her motivation for helping Tracy,
and mentions the Sept. 2012 scene

Speculation.

Ric ends up brain dead. Sonny is informed of his brother’s brain death and has a massive heart attack. Sonny needs a heart transplant and is given Ric’s heart.

Does that sound like a plausible outcome to this story?

    • Ranger, will you be his champion?! Tell Dante to back the he&l off? Be there for him in the coming days when he is going to be furious & possibly turn his back on the Cerullos & the Qs & show up at Sonny's door looking for a new place to park his weary head? As for me, I watched the NB every year even when I wasn't watching GH. Many years have been disappointing. So far this year is amazingly satisfying. Clothes! Performers! Drama!  So ironic that they actually have Cam doing what we always said he should be doing, emcee, tux, mic, huge toothy grin! Snark! Could they possibly throw any more shade? Nooo! This is like 100% attitude coming from all directions. You could say I died & went to heaven. Gimme all this high school talent show soapy goodness, I mean, it's only 4 days, what kind of wimp are you, anyway? As soap fans, we are supposed to enjoy these occasional flights of fancy. Maybe you aren't, but I sure as he&l am! And, I won't let any Debbie Downers ruin it for me, either. This brief early morning message was brought to you by the letter N for what else Nurses Ball.
    • I have seen little of Wally, but I always think of the backstage story Julia Barr (I think it was Julia) told where he hated his character and storylines so much that at one point he put some form of clown makeup on in his dressing room to show his feelings.
    • Happy Birthday Giovanni Mazza!!

        Understandable
    • She's beyond awful. She needs to be sent away. We know that's not going to happen.
    • I knew that was the Manhattan skyline in the background  That’s one of the best parts of this; their relationship can go either way. Though I’m hoping that they’ll eventually find their way back to each other 
    • I don't remember ANYTHING with Devon and Cliff! I do remember Liza fixated on him (around the time Angel Haining took over the role briefly as Marcy Walker left for Santa Barbara!), but not a thing about Devon. Shows how memorable it was. LOL! I do have a very hazy memory with Devon and...Wally, was it? I think that was his name, Devon's husband! (Mom watched AMC from jump, and wee little me got into it!) But I do remember poor Tricia Pursley just played Devon as a sad sack.
    • Since we need to see Tide placed in the show at least 4 times a week, Derek should be acknowledged as what happens when one accepts the Tide Pod Challenge.
    • No mention of Hope and Carter's Insta romance?   I skimmed through today's episode.   It was a status quo, pointless episode.
    • I agree that the costume designer has done well in giving characters a specific look-I just don't like Kat's! But I will concede defeat on this one... Now that the show is well established I am thinking about some of the choices mad re occupations and settings. I don't expect a soap to be a documentary but the workplace can be fertile ground for story, character interactions and to add a sense of realism. It's getting a little Y&R with people meeting up at eateries. Making Derek a firefighter seems pointless-he should have been a cop working with Jacob.Would have given him more airtime and purpose. Martin is supposedly an up and coming politician but we have no evidence of that. Maybe his office should have been a set-and some other characters work there. Jan could have worked there in some capacity, or maybe Ashley instead of being a nurse. Vernon could spend time there offering his expertise-which could lead to conflict with his grandson. Same with the Real estate business-we don't see Vanessa in that role. She would have more credibilty if we saw her at work. Ashley or Smitty might work there etc, with discussions of the business -listings, attending viewings etc Andre does real estate photography. Maybe Naomi could work for her father and they could have workplace battles. Discussing cases with Tomas and her dad. And we need to see Nicole at work. Finishing up with a client etc And for Chelsea and Kat some actual evidence of setting up the'purse line' Realizing how difficult it is to get a foothold. I like the idea of having a server at Orphey's being a wise 'talk to' for various characters. Just more effective use of the characters... What are your thoughts after several months of shows?
    • Finally, Days is a soap opera about drama. Wednesday's episode is soapy goodness.
