GH: April 2025 Discussion Thread

100% agree. I just think Jason works best when placed into storylines about his family relationships. Steve usually has Jason speaking slowly and deliberately, which makes sense for the character. But it doesn't always work when the show is doing action/mob scenes, as his slow-paced speech can take already-boring expository dialogue and make it more sluggish. But in family storylines like his scenes with Danny today, the slower pace gives the actors more time to react and convey things with their facial expressions. It feels more like old-school soap opera, which is very welcome on the frenetically-edited GH

I think Jason pointing to his head and telling Danny we think in our heads was a throw back to Jason's own brain damage.   I actually think Steve does play Jason as a damaged character that doesn't take social cues well and thinks people are judging.  The writing doesn't play to that often so I appreciated that today.

I HATE Diane.  Hate everything about her.  Still I think she believes Kristina does need help and Alexis and Sonny are too blind to see that.  I think it's a very roundabout way for Diane to try to solve the Kristina criminal issue.

I was wondering that too when she first dropped the papers.  Trying to save Alexis from herself. But after watching it all play out I am not so sure now.

I hope the sex worker that Jordan and Nina hired ends up dead and Drew is blamed. When in reality it was Ezra who killed her.  It would create a big mess and crisis of conscience for Jordan and Nina.

I thought yesterday's episode was really good.  A lot actually happened.

I rarely think about Cody at all, but they really need to figure out what to do with Josh Kelly or let him go.  His main purpose is to hang out with adorable child actors these days.  The show seems to tease Cody with multiple women (and obviously it's Molly currently) and then it goes nowhere. 

Anyhow, I laughed when Portia and Nina were stunned by the sex worker asking for $6000.  That doesn't seem like that much for what they are making her do?  Lol

Drew paying someone off to stop Willow from seeing Michael was predictable.  Willow just accepting it and not pushing harder was so weak.  She flew all the way to Germany and is going to shrug her shoulders and turn around and leave.  

I don't understand why Carly and Brick were talking so loudly about the super-secret surgery Sonny had.   Maybe actually act like you are looking at hospitals for Michael like you said instead of publicly going on and on about something that you are trying to keep low key.  I do wonder if Natalia was originally supposed to come with Sonny and the show just gave up on that lol.

I am a believer that what Diane did was intentional.  She wrote Davis on the envelope, not Corinthos, so Molly would find it and look at it.

    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.
