GH: April 2025 Discussion Thread

It was not a waste of either Carly's time or Jason's time & no one else's time matters. And, the message was coming from not only the best person to deliver it but literally the only person Carly was likely to hear it from. Felicia? Even her brother Lucas? But, frustrated Jason talking to frustrated Carly in her kitchen, one afternoon, yes, then & there, with the two of them, then it became possible. The dialogue yesterday between Jason & Carly was replete with history & with promises. 

What's great about Ric so far this tenure is his treatment of other people, which is exactly what his problem was in the past. Then he treated multiple people badly. Now he's treated no one badly.

I thought the acting was decent and there were some nice nods to history, but Jason/Carly have this exact conversation once a week!  We get it show.  Carly/Jason are bff for life.  Carly won't listen and it will blow up in her face and Jason will save her. 

There is so much airtime dedicated to their friendship while other people and other relationships can't buy 5 minutes a week.  I like both Jason and Carly separately and even I get frustrated hearing the same dialogue over and over for an entire hour.  Can't Jason go check on his kids or Liz or something?   Who Carly is sleeping with feels low on the list of things Jason should be concerned about.

Both Jason & Carly had scenes with Danny when Sam died, which was Halloween, and off & on for a few weeks after, so in November. I think Jason has made reference to speaking to Barcelona boy, whether that was just texting, unsure, but twice. So typical contact for soap kids. Nothing special.

It looks like Danny appeared last month, but I really don't recall if it was with Jason.  Probably?  I can't say I have been terribly impressed with the Jason/Danny relationship after the initial reactions around Sam's death.  

And don't even get me started on Jake.  Such an odd decision to have him leave town now that Jason is back lol.  Meanwhile we have kids like Charlotte and Violet before her being central in storylines.

I really like how Ric and Ava are putting together the pieces so quickly about what Kristina did. If they can use this as leverage against despicable Kristina and Sonny, all the better.

I liked the Lucky-Kristina scenes, although I think his softheartedness will backfire big time (and maybe spark some conflict with Elizabeth). I don't recall Liz and Lucas ever having a very close friendship, but their scenes discussing their dating lives were very cute today.

Agreed on both points.

Ava and Ric are so delicious together and they figured this out incredibly quickly so I just knew another turn was bound to happen.

Kristina might be one of the most despicable characters I've ever seen lmao and NOT because she nearly got two people killed. But the way she weaponizes Molly and TJ's daughter's and Sam's deaths to manipulate people. With her and Lucky it was "my baby" and "Adela" but notice how the baby suddenly becomes hers and Molly's later on? Ugh I hate her.

    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.

    • I started a separate thread for the same tribute, but of course it can be discussed wherever. doesn't matter where. Fyi  Jason Cook, Staci Greason, and Eileen Davidson will be there as well as Reckell and some of the current cast Thread for Live tribute to Drake https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn
    • Seeing Nicole and Martin together reminds me of watching Alice with Mickey Horton in the 90s and 00s. The seem more like peers than mother and son.  The younger half of the cast (35ish and below) is playing younger, and the older half (35+) is playing older.
