Id rather see him on Days but i think he and Maura would have awesome chemistry together…maybe he’d be another Cassidine?

Good to hear from you Jaybird…i love KG(Dr.O) as chief of staff or as police commisioner…i’ll take Dr.O in any position…OOPS, that sounds naughty…i meant job position…lol…Happy Holidays too you and your family and friends!!!

lol…that would be funny…Happy Holidays!

Yep Harry, you blinked…Carly and Sonnys as star crossed lovers is the greatest soap love story…for 30 seconds…its ashame you missed it…lol

With many behind bars…finally…i wish they do prison stories like Australias Prisoner Cell Block H…that was a cool serial!!!

Exactly, Harry….Carly is definitely one of those women who simply cannot do without a man for very long….I think her theme song is “Love The One You’re With!”

I will never forget it, Jim. Wait…what? On another note, I miss Laura. Guza had her wheeled off in a wheel chair to lie in a comatose state for years. Then she is brought back to have this terrible fake wedding with Luke which I found terrible condescending. Luke seemed to feel sorry for the woman for whom he once felt great love and passion. There is no greater buzz kill than pity. Then Ron brings her back and then has her fade to black with an unfinished story. I think I saw her picture on a milk cartoon. Please… Read more »

Jim, in the last two days Carly has visited two of her ex boyfriends–both of whom are behind bars.
I keep thinking that Carly is going to have one of those V 8 moments and whack herself upside her head and say,”Wow, I really have bad taste in men.”
In fact, today everyone was behind bars today. It was as if someone drew in jail bars and superimposed them on every character.
The show is getting ridiculous again.

I don’t care about Connie or AJ. I only care about Ava. If they decide to leave her in jail, it will be off-screen and therefore as I said, a waste of my time and Maura’s immense talent.

so your suggesting a prison where in the prison yard, sonny, jonny and julian can “hang out” with Ava? or maybe since juian is her brother they can share a cell? is this what your suggesting the show do? you know theres no such prison that exist where its coed,? right? rebecca1,.

LOL, Aria. Yes, I am fully aware that there is no co-ed prison…and wait! You mean Ava and Julian can’t bunk together even thought they’re related???? Ummmm…kidding. No, what I’m suggesting is that they shoot more time in the prison so we get to see Sonny, Julian and Johnny. Normally once someone goes to prison they’re either off the show for good or indefinitely. If these guys are to stay on, which I think they are…perhaps they’ll have more jailhouse scenes as they did last week with Sonny and Johnny. And, if Julian gets put away then with him as… Read more »

Harry, a ”peen” is a weenie! Sonny is a big one!! lol
(I really luv Sonny!)
Melissa, as for Muria, the soap actors do get and need their time off..
they have lives and other projects, a jail stay gives them time off..

I’m right here, Harry!!!! And although you already know I absolutely adore Dr. O., I have no issues with the fact you do not….different strokes for different folks!!! However, I do wish you would stop comparing her to the odious character played by that grotesque old biddy, Cloris Leachman, who I have always failed to find humorous as anything but Phyllis Lindstrom. At least KG is capable of providing a range of emotions….it isn’t a constant OTT crazytrain with her….and I am blown away by her versatile musical performances. Would I like her as much if she became a more… Read more »

LOL, errrrr… I hate to tell you what you think but you don’t agree with Melissa because you DO care that Ava and AJ. I know you loved AJ as I did. (well, maybe not as much…dunno….)

Harry…the above “LOL, errrrrr…” was to you!

rebecca1, the only reason I am worried that she (Ava) would be offscreen is that they’re not going to do a co-ed prison, and Nina will be sent to the nuthouse, not jail. So there isn’t any reason to have Ava in jail all by herself. If they can find a way to do it, fine, but I won’t be holding my breath.

Fear not…lol…I don’t think she’s leaving the show.

I totally concur, Cee Cee.
Carly has always lathered herself into a state of righteous indignation right after she gets caught doing something incredibly wrong.

No, you were correct, Cee Cee.
I was just acting like a dumb ass-I am well adept at playing that role.

I’m a big-time Maura West fan, too! She’s my favorite character on GH, and what a gem Maura is the show.

I haven’t heard anything about Maura West (Ava) leaving. I don’t think anyone would want to lose such a talented actress. They will think of some way to keep her even if it is in prison scenes like Maurice Bernard is doing.

If they can make Dr, O who is a kidnapper, torturer and so much worse the chief of staff, then I think it’s safe to say that Ava will not only stay, she will be redeemed. In fact, I know I am alone with this (looking furtively for Shay) but I detest Dr. O and I detest the manner in which they are now trying to place a big ole white hat on that demonic, shrewish head of hers while they make the heroic Anna look both corrupt and inept. I realize Dr O is Ron’s creation and he’s going… Read more »

I really like Ava and even I hope she won’t be released, but I get the feeling that a loophole will be found – she’s not the type to plead guilty, I think. : Yep, I love Franco, and I feel like they struck gold with the Franco/Nina friendship (and possible romance). It makes two otherwise despicable characters appear very human and complex. I could go on for days about how much I love them and why, LOL. But yes, their relationship made me enjoy watching the show again. 🙂

Hi Del….I love the relationship between Franco and Nina too and I hope somehow the writers move forward with that. But considering they’re both facing jail or a mental facility…we have to see how that goes… As for Franco as a stand alone, I liked him even before Nina. For a while they has him as the village idiot! lol..seriously, he was a man/child. The dialogue they gave him was inane and ridiculous…once they gave him a job at the hospital they suddenly began writing for him. It conversation, while always sardonic…made sense…he made sense…His love and sacrifice for Carly… Read more »

Hey rebecca1!!!! Yes, Franco WAS a sympathetic character, until the time he took sides with that nervy nutter, Nina. Up until that point, I could forgive him just about anything, such was the excellent job RoHo did of making Franco far more human and endearing than his predecessor….I even loved his monumental burn job on Sonny and Carly because they totally deserved it! BUT….once he joined forces with the Cray Clay and helped her escape with Ava’s child, that was where my affection for him ended. I make no bones about the fact that I absolutely cannot stand MS or… Read more »

Hey Shay…do I need to preface everything with I couldn’t disagree with you more…or should we assume I just do and only mention it when I do agree with you! 😉 The fact that Franco helped Nina only made him more endearing to me. These are two people who feel alone, unloved, betrayed and lost. The fact that Franco would jeopardize his own freedom to go save/help Nina makes him the perfect antihero…in an urban dictionary sense. He’s flawed, he has a shady past…yet he has noble intentions much of the time. From risking his life to save Carly to… Read more »

Ditto. I figured Franco was playing decoy while the whack job made her getaway. Predictable and then not so predictable.

Guys…this is Port Charles and half of the citizens are related to the felons. LOL…I didin’t even blink an eye when Silas went for Nina or Franco was left with Kiki. As for Carly, she’s always blabbering to anyone who will listen; she also blabbered to him in the hospital where she too felt a “strange connection” or familiarity with this stranger. Again…didn’t surprise me or cause me pause…

Keystone Kops , for sure. Anna Devane is the lousiest Chief of Police. I guess if you take it all with a grain of salt (or two, or three) it’s amusing entertainment. I just didn’t know GH was supposed to be a comedy.

Jonboy, Anna is a former WSB agent, a super dooper, secret agent, karate chopping, super spy.
She has been dumbed down in order to prop up Dr O and it really pisses me off.

Great post Mateo but I cannot stand how Carly denigrates people. She’s insulted and patronized Robin, Elizabeth, Sam, AJ and Franco. Not one of them is beneath her yet she always walks around like she is the moral code to adhere to. Her constant bashing of AJ was detestable and I feel the same way about Franco. This version of Franco has been nothing but loving….man…he even risked his life to save her from Heather. Carly’s had to be put in her place and I’m glad Franco put her there. Unfortunately it looks like Jake/Jason is gong to be riding… Read more »

Great post Mateo. I personally cannot stand how Carly denigrates people. She’s insulted and patronized Robin, Elizabeth, Sam, AJ and Franco. Not one of them is beneath her yet she always walks around like she is the moral code to adhere to. Her constant bashing of AJ was detestable and I feel the same way about how she speaks of/treats Franco. This version of Franco has been nothing but loving. Man!….he even risked his life to save her from Heather. Carly had to be put in her place and I’m glad Franco put her there. Unfortunately it looks like Jake/Jason… Read more »

And yet, Carly parades around Port Charles like she’s “Mother of the Year!!!!” How I wish that annoyingly aggressive amazon had been locked behind bars along with the likes of Ava and Phyllina…they all deserve each other and at Christmastime, no less!!!!! (Although I do side with Team Ava when it comes to the egregious infant-snatching escapade….I truly would love to see her exact revenge upon that maternally-mad maniac who absconded with Baby Corinthos, as I’m so sick and tired of Cray Clay spouting all her delusional domestic nonsense with that goofy grin plastered on her face!)

Hey, jonboy…couldn’t wait to get out of class to tell you how I so agree with you, as far as Maura is concerned. Nonetheless, I cannot dismiss Michelle Stafford that easily. They are both very engaging and seasoned actresses, albeit I concede to Maura having outdone herself….admirable thespian, that she is. Both of these ladies’s acting is insane…no pun intended…LOL.

Maura reminds me of one of those classic movie actresses you see on TCM. To me, Stafford is just repeating what she’s already done on YnR. When her character first appeared on the show she was a sociopath but then they sort of rehabilitated her. For my money she was a better fit on YnR. So was Billy Miller, for that matter.

I think your on to something because you have 5 or 6 top stars who are or heading too jail. It would be cool to have a 3 soaps within a soap. One in jail, one in the hospital, and the Q clan!

I agree.

aaha no way –
Carly a– ”’ disgusting depraved desperate mob moll.”’ … LOL!
Carly is not even close to your description..
She loves a Mob man however, she is not involved…

What era of GH are you still in…. lol

Lol. SU….you crack me up. I wish I lived in the part pf the DEEP south that you did. Sonny was never Michael’s father in ANY way. Would yoh, as a human, love the greasy criminal who kidnapped you, and hung your father on a meathook, to steal the kid? Michael being raised by Sonny resulted in him being traumatized repeatedly, shot in the head, in a coma, brutally sodomized and raped,…..ya….what good parents they are. LOL.

It was not ”kidnapping”
The mother took her her son, its everyday by someone, it is custody. when with your mother or father..
And Carly and Sonny brought Michale up and that more than qualifies Sonny as his father..
(ask any adopted child )

But you enjoy that…as “entertainment” lol. Good luck with that pal.

Oh please, su0000. Of course Michael was kidnapped! You’re playing semantics. Michael was taken from AJ…his mind was poisoned against him (AJ)/..they didn’t allow AJ to have contact with Michael…and Sonny tortured AJ until he signed over his rights. If you don’t think that’s some form of kidnapping I hope you don’t ever plan to adopt.

I agree with Aden. Sonny threatened to kill her, he is/was violent and he hurt AJ mentally and physically until finally killing him. I could care less about the “love story” of Carly and Sonny. They’re the lowest moral compasses on the show.

Carly is the worst mother ever for making her lust for Sonny/men override her maternal love/instincts. Worst mother….EVER. Sonny is no better as a father. His lust completely made him lose control of his senses….not only by DOING his son’s paramour, but also due to the now infamous ‘crypt sex’ paradigm associated with Sonny/Ava. He loves Michael as his own son? He has no respect for his flesh and blood, how can one expect Sonny to respect Michael?……a kidnapped child from his bio dad, beloved AJ? Carly is just as guilty by withholding this so diabolical, albeit crucial piece of… Read more »

CeeCee I loved your post. Thanks!! Kidnapping a child does not make a parent, despite what Su thinks. Lol. Su has a different mindset from the rest of us. I call it Deep South, but that is just conjecture on my part. Sonny and Carly are just gross disgusting murderers. Thats all.

Ahem…yo, Aden, over here! LOL…where is my recognition? I agreed with you first!!!! Sigh… 😉

CeeCee….Of course, Ava will live to see another day in Port Charles….and outside of the slammer, to be sure. She always manages to slither away from any dire consequences for her appalling actions, and I’ve come to terms with that notion. While I will never count myself as an Ava fan, I can admit that MW portrays her with a finesse and restraint that is rare in daytime….as long as she is not constantly featured on the canvas, I can at least stomach her presence….unlike that of your favorite, MS….I’m sorry but her Nina shtick is just so overwrought and… Read more »

I don’t know, Shay. Maybe for once the writers will do the opposite of what we expect and keep these guys in prison for a while. I’ve been suggesting that…they can do a sort of prison drama ala Oz…anywone remember that show…but obviously not one iota the the violent, graphic material. I just think since all of these horrendous crimes came out and for once everyone got caught…it would be ludicrous to find loopholes for everyone. I think what they did with Carlos and Johnny was great…it’s very realistic to find Carlos finally out…and Johnny working it from the inside.… Read more »

@rebecca1….Well, yeah, for now Carlos is out and about, and what’s the first thing he does—besides sniffing out Sappy, I mean???? He directly returns to his life of crime at the behest of Johnny Z….hence, I’m hoping he’s either soon eliminated in the course of his latest caper or better yet, if the situation becomes too heated, headed off to PR…with his waste of a woman in tow… (And speaking of that insufferable so-not-a-nurse—license notwithstanding…..she definitely should also be in jail for her appalling antics!!! Furthermore, her protracted, excruciating “apology tour” needs to be winding down here soon, don’t ya… Read more »

@Shay I agree with every word you wrote below, Shay…except…you know it; Nina. What Nina did is unconscionable, yes….but, she is sick. As I said way back, once one develops an antipathy for a character/ actress/ actor, nothing he/ she does or says sits well with one. I am just as guilty of that as anyone. Ava, on the other hand, knew exactly what she was doing. She’s just a bad girl. How long has Ava been in the picture? I was abhorred by her wickedness….but, miracle of miracles, GH would not be the same without her…at least, for myself.… Read more »

Hey Shay…just saw your response. Regarding Carlos…what did you expect he’d do when he got out? He’s a career criminal and it’s perfectly logical that he made connections with Johnny. I think the way they’re tying these characters together is great. Just as I predicted it’s going to be there’s going to be a prison canvas which ties in Sonny, Johnny and Franco to the outside world. Thus, they’re paying for their crimes but instead of the usual in jail…off the show…they’re creating stories from there. We get to have our cake and eat it too…so to speak…sorta. 😉 I’ml… Read more »

He is not “their” son. Sonny kidnapped him as a child. Kidnapping does not make one a father or a dad in any way.

Agree.

Sonny did not kidnap Michael..
‘Michael was in custody of his mother , Carly..

Suooo, Sonny, Carly and Jason all worked in unison to make sure AJ never had any contact with his own son. Was it kidnapping in the eyes of the law? No, but AJ was put on a meat hook and was not taken down until he signed away his parental rights. It all started back when Carly (Sarah Brown) became pregnant with AJ’s child. It was a one night stand and AJ was intoxicated at the time of conception and didn’t remember the encounter the next day. Carly was involved with her mother’s husband, the beloved Dr. Tony Jones at… Read more »

ohhhh Maura and Michelle!
a soap opera dream team !!
GH has the most powerful awesome cast..
I’d have have name all them , but too lazy…

Hardly.

Both Michelle and Maura deserve an Emmy. Their interaction is impeccable. If anyone deserves a salute of greatness, it is they. BRAVE.
The same could be said for Silas. I had lost faith in him…but Michael Easton came back as the great actor he was/is. And Roger? What can I say? He just grabs me…I love him as Franco as much as I loved him as Todd. BRAVI.

Hey, CeeCee,

H-o-n-e-y…not only are Sonny and Carly HORRIBLE-ASS PARENTS, more and more, I’m actually surprised that Michael has any SANITY left!!!!! Girlfriend, if I were a young child and Sonny and Carly were my parents (U-G-H!!!!!), I would E-S-C-A-PE from them as fast as I could. Then, from there (and as fast as I could), I would R-U-N (not walk!!!!!) to the nearest/local adoption agency and VERY VOLUNTARILY put myself up for adoption!!!!! Most of all, while I was there, I would VERBALLY SPILL ALL about Sonny and Carly!!!!! As in…EVERYTHING!!!!! Yep!!!!!

Take care, CeeCee. Peace.
