GH: May 2025 Discussion Thread

[Contessa Donatella]

I figure that was really hard for Dom to do. I completely GET why they wrote it the way they did but I wonder if it was necessary.

Meanwhile I have 2 really icky ideas in my head.

Drew is going to blame Tracy KNOWING it was not her.

Dante is going to blame Lulu. 

After that, everyone else is going to be mad at Lois. 

Tracy is going to double down on wanting to get rid of Sonny.

Sonny's going to be more dug in to stay because he now has a new descendant.

Okay I can buy that when Brook Lynn was a teen.  Now she knows the child is a boy one would think she'd be slightly suspicious.  Then again, Gio looks nothing like either of them so maybe not lol.

Shut up, Dante and Lois. 

I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago.

Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either. 

Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss.

And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.

[Taoboi]

EVER.

if only Dante had admitted to hating string instruments earlier....

It's a joke. If there's a way to put Joss into a WSB spy story that works, I haven't seen it. What they're doing is just ridiculous. Imagine trusting a huge operation to someone who "finished training" a month ago.

I think they're trying to make this work by having a college-age agent be a part of the professor's class, etc. It might look acceptable on paper, but it doesn't work when you see it.

Nothing about Joss ever works. I can't blame them for trying a completely fresh approach for her, but she needs to be written out. 

[carolineg]

I am ready for Joss to take a nice long trip to see her father in Australia and give the character a break and a recast.

If the show is hell bent on keeping Eden at least give the girl stories that play to some of EM's strengths.  Dead boyfriends, sex tapes, trying to become a Dr., and now a spy?  None of that works for a character that should be a bitchy, spoiled brat causing trouble in the background.  Not the younger leading heroine.

[Contessa Donatella]

Yes, that was his last appearance. 

[Liberty City]

How about a PERMANENT trip?!

[carolineg]

Lol.  I still believe there is a place for Joss on the canvas.  This just isn't it and I am not sure Eden McCoy is the right choice for the role.

I was under the impression that it is always wrong to post private email unless there is some threat of bodily harm. But I think your doing so brings up an interesting point since it shows that I had known about the illness/disease since the prior April if I am wrong & you are right & my point was to break the news why didn't I post it ages ago? My reply is that my point was never about scoop or breaking news. 

Somewhere in this onslaught you've said I posted about some actors having an affair. I have zero idea what or who you're talking about. 

You mention a cast member's medical condition which about a dozen people discussed & someone NOT ME began the discussion at least a month before I joined it.  Is everyone who took part in that conversation based on having concern for the actress in trouble or just me?

There are definitely things that are not true ... and they are not lies told by me. Probably they are things being misremembered.

Joss can go, permanently; killed off, body bag and all, and never ever return.

Joss is nowhere near the top of my list to keep currently.  I just wouldn't kill her off and consider bringing her back sometime down the line.  I guess it depends on how well the show is able to develop the next generation of talent with Rocco, Danny, Georgie, etc.

I've just been over Josslyn since her corn costume on Halloween, putting her into a "leading lady" kind of position, simply because she is Carly's daughter, all while backburning other children is annoying AF.
