I like Victor too. I wish TPTB would have brought him back as a good guy, having turned a new leaf, and have made him live. It would have been great if a storyline were created exploring a romantic relationship between himself and Liesl….sigh!

You are assuming that Victor is actually dead.

Amen, Max! I love, love, love Victor! I truly hope he isn’t down for the count, as he’s far too colorful and valuable a villain to be dead! And CeeCee, I totally agree about his pairing with Liesl…they were such an intriguing couple, and I wanted to know their backstory….I am feeling VERY cheated!!!! (Then again, you have to hand it to Mutter….what a warm and fuzzy woman willing to kill to protect her baby boy….LOL!)

Good deduction, Timmm. I concur with you and rebecca. It stands to reason that Jason was disfigured. But, how did Robin escape injury? Or did she?

Absolutely not!!! Victor Cassadine as a good guy would be a complete bore.

COnsidering all the things that happened to him, how else would you expect Stavros to be???

So right, Jimmy. I got a kick out of Victor’s and Stavros’s scenes also. Especially one particular scene in Victor’s office, where Stavros shows his impatience about ‘making’ Lulu the mother of his child. Victor’s response was such as to rebuke and chide a recalcitrant child. And, if I were to describe Stavros, at this time, I would say he was acting like the spoiled brat jimh raised…lol…you know I luv-ya, jimh.

It was the T-shirt, you guys! Lol…everyone will recognize him by the infamous Jasonite- black T-shirt. Lol 2-ice.
BTW…..next time Helena comes back to life? There won’t be much more skin left to stretch on her face.
Jimh…I think they should all be blown to bits and for GH to start fresh…kidding..lol again.

I think Robin sees Steve Burton’s Jason now. We dont. Victor pushed that panic button and I think Jason is disfigured when that bomb goes off and he wakes up at GH with bandages on his face and there you have Billy Miller as Jason. Wala!

I think you’re right!

I am actually loving this story! Won’t say anything since the west coast hasn’t seen it yet but I loved today’s episode…even more than yesterdays. Fun and seems (sorta) like ol’ times….

Yes, rebecca…that’s an excellent point…Ah, destiny, indeed. What goes around, comes around. This time, Jason Morgan will come out of this ‘accident’ as Jason Quartermaine… Could this be the reason for the explosion at the clinic? Lucy mentioned a different personality…..so, Jason will be reborn, per say, or more to the point, he will revert to his original being. Yes?

I think you’re right…he probably does get disfigured and thus the new face!

You are all so intuitive. You’re such pros. I mean it.

I think Helene will capture Robin and have her carry Stravos and Lulus child…gives Robin/Kim another excuse to leave for months!!!

Thanks CeeCee. Sorry, I’m the west coast–still watching. Ok now I think that Helena wanted to implant the egg in Robin. But now–who knows? I think people above are right–Jason will have to have plastic surgery–and maybe will lose his memory.
Robin will vanish–maybe to show back up 10 months from now pregnant with Stavros and Lulu’s baby.
Patrick will hear about the explosion at the clinic and assume she’s dead. (Would they do that again?)

Rebecca, we should all be so disfigured.

Good point, see ya Steve!

They might be doing that so that no one knows who he is…therefore he’ll be back but Sam, Monica, LIz, Carly, Sonny, even Robin…won’t know it’s him. I assume along with that the Cassadine’s will program him in some way so that he won’t know who he is either. It’s an interesting way to go…for a while…although poor Jason went through amnesia after the car accident back in the day…losing his identity and thereby becoming Jason Morgan…

Ah, destiny…..

All good assumptions, jimh. It is a soap, afterall…anything is possible.

OR maybe it becomes one giant freezer! You know how those Cassadines love to freeze things!

I was rather disappointed that C-C already went BOOM!!!!! I actually had envisioned the place going on for quite awhile with all sorts of surprises behind Door#1, Door#2, Door#3, etc. Sort of like “Let’s Make A Deal….” The possibilities could have been endless…..

You bet he does, jimh. Lol

I don’t know if this qualifies me as a prude or not, but here it goes. It grosses me out how many different sex-mates sleep in each other’s beds. Wow, the germs !!!!!You know what I mean? Do they ever change the sheets? Lol. I would either get a new bed, or burn the old one. … Not on the budget? Ha !!! And Lol.

I hear ya…though that didn’t even bother me as much as Maxi letting the door slam, to two I think, rooms, while she was trying to get help…At least Nathan turned around and held the door so it would close quietly.

Cherie those things bugged me too. Not to mention after Maxi killed Levi instead of checking to make sure he’s dead they have a make out session, another high point for me, but at the worse time.

Rebecca you’d think Maxi would know the rules to sneaking around lol.

lol
we were lead to see them/the Cassadine’s as being dread..
but not one was declared dead and Victor was still alive..
The Cassadine’s are invincible!!
They are a bit bloody but alive!!
It was a good entertainment and the Cassadine’s live on!! (trust me on that one 🙂

Love it and I have the perfect actor to play Valentin. None other than Michael Muhney, formerly of Y&R.

Wow…good post, Mary Lynn. I am not familiar with all this background stories..only bits and pieces. You make it sound so dramatic and traumatic….lol…I awaiting with anticipation if it will happen just as you say.

I read on another site that Nathan is a Cassadine so maybe the fauxLuke is Valentin and Nathan is his son.

@Mary Lynn…very intriguing theory!

Cee Cee, you shouldnt drink and post! Just kidding. Leonardo? I dont think so. He does have one hell of a body though. Kristen Storms would probably act on that show for free!

And, Timmm, I agree. Michael Muhney would be perfect in the role of a dastardly ,and then some, Cassidine.

I see your point. His acting has improved but I just dont care for him and thats probably a better reason I dont want him on the front burner.

You’re thinking of the 70’s, Su00.. The 80’s was more about acid washed jeans, mullets and shoulder pads.
Rich makes some valid points.

I just wish they didn’t have to take so many story and production shortcuts. It lessens the show and does a disservice to a story like this. Case in point, virtually all of clinic action taking place in the same hallway and 2 rooms.

Yes, Shay, and such flashbacks could demonstrate the notion that if you’re going to feature over-the-top campy villains then it follows you must have over-the-top campy heroes to balance it out. Yesterday’s story was good but I found myself aching for both Robert and Luke of the Big Hair. I like Dante, but he doesn’t seem strong as a hero type. I picture him saying to a villain,”Oh, please put your hands up, and won’t you please drop that gun? I’d really appreciate it.” Yes, Nathan provides good good eye candy but he doesn’t strike me as being very bright.… Read more »

Then again, Harry, they may not want to provide viewers with evidence of how great GH once was….there is good reason why we wax nostalgic about the glory days in Port Charles….and as such, the current state of the show, no matter how fine on occasion, can only pale in comparison! But be that as it may, I would love to see a glimpse of yesteryear’s best….particularly Frisco and Robert, since there’s no indication they will be back in the flesh anytime soon!!!!

P.S. That would be yesteryears’…..

But would only his face get burned and need reconstructive surgery…what about the rest of his body?

@jimh– Bodies don’t matter, remember on Another World when Marley was disfigured in the hospital fire– she was Vicky’s identical twin, and after the fire the first actress who played the twins played Marley while the current Vicky stayed Vicky. The plastic surgery accounted for the difference in their faces, but no one ever explained how one twin grew taller than the other when they were identical before the fire–LOL

You are assuming that Victor is actually dead?

You’re right, as usual, jimh. Someone needs to take the DiMera reins. But, who will lead the Cassidine clan….the bad ones cannot be all dead. So, I like this Valentin idea. Where would GH be without, at least, one crazy Cassidine?

Wow, I like that assumption too, Su. A completely different approach…a lot more gruesome than plastic surgery, but, hey…isn’t that what makes the Cassidines tic?

The only problem with your theory is that Robin was working on reviving the dead based upon the science of cryogenics….Jason was the guinea pig of the project to perfect the process before Stavros and Helena were able to be resurrected, so it would seem highly unlikely that his return to the land of the living would be of a nature different than theirs. Since the Cassadines came back in their original bodies, it would seem to me we have to assume the same for Jason….he is simply going to be injured beyond recognition and as such, will have to… Read more »

Oh, Harry….sometimes you are just so droll!!!!

And my name is Cecelia .

shay..
Jason’s face will not be altered..
Jason new face and body will be because his brain was transplant ..
Jason’s brain was but into a different body ..
It is the future and someday it will be a noted transplant, and they have done face transplants successfully in real life..
Crichton-Clark Clinic is a highly secret research clinic, after all.. things we cant imagine are supposedly done there at the Crichton-Clark Clinic ..
ALL organs are now transplantable, so will the brain be 🙂
And Jason will be the first to have received one!! LOL 🙂

I really hated Peter supposedly died too because I was hoping for a Frisco and Felicia adventure for the Aztec jewelry.

Hi guys. I am for real. No worries their. Lol. Thank you to CeeCee and all of the rest of you. Can’t wait to get into the mix with you all about our lovely soap opera’s. Even though they all piss us fans off sometimes, I see it as that is only because we are all in a love and hate relatipnship with our best of friends; General Hospital, The Young and The Restless, The Bold and The Beautiful, and Days of Our Lives. As well as the ones we all truly miss; Port Charles, As The World Turns, Guiding… Read more »

Constance Towers was a brilliant Helena..She had more mileage with the character and made the part her own…Liz Taylor was a legend and I adore her in the cinema, but her brief cameo @ GH was not enough to own the character, in my opinion.

Would love to see her Helena back..And when played by Ms Towers you would get a delicious performance..I remember her over at “Capitol” back in the early 80’s when I was a young buck..Loved that show and she was great there.

Wow, ….was Liz Taylor on GH? Was not aware of that !

I didn’t mind her on Capitol , I just don’t like her on GH– LOL, boy are we aging ourselves 😉 I respect your opinion though.

I agree with Omar. Helena is sublime as Helena and she wears those Chanel suits so well. Constance Towers is a beautiful woman, and I adore her. CeeCee, I cannot believe you did not know that Liz Taylor was on General Hospital. She basically crashed Luke and Laura’s wedding and put a curse on the couple. Apparently Liz and Tony got along famously and she flirted harmlessly with him. They really hit it off. I wish I could post Youtubes in here, but if you put Elizabeth Taylor on GH in your search engine her scenes as Helena will pop… Read more »

@Harry. I have not been watching GH for long, therefore I had no clue. Plus, I only KNOW of Taylor’s fame…her beauty, her several marriages through word of mouth. HUGE generation gap.

Here I am, catching up with the posts…quiet time,…and boom, I come to your post, jimh…..I am laughing so hard…literally out loud…stop it !!!! You got my husband laughing too.

Or the alternative….heading back to PeeWee’s Playhouse—I mean Franco’s paint-splattered “art therapy” cubbyhole—where Phyllina has practically taken up residence…..along with Grossalie and “The List! Why couldn’t they have blown them up instead?????

@jimdavis289…I never used the word “chuckle”…but that’s how I’d explain what just came out of my mouth after reading your comment! thanks!

My response to the toenail crack was meant for you, jimdavis. Got confused there as jimh also cracks me up ….you guys have a knack for making me laugh…. Thank you.

Shay–Peewee’s Playhouse? ha! Now I envision them all making faces out of their pancakes and then greeting it with,”Hello, Mr. Breakfast!”

oh miss shaaa ayyyyyyy…dunkledude? ahem. I’m waiting… 😉

Uh, not sure what you’re implying, rebecca1…are you upset I appropriated your fond moniker for ZG???? I think we both sort of coined it simultaneously….although I preferred the preface of “Der” for added emphasis…anyway, I know you lurved Levi, but, sorry….he did wear out his welcome…yet, I truly would have enjoyed a moment of comic relief if the audience had been treated to him breaking character and chowing down a cheeseburger on the sly!!!!! Having said that, I’d love for “Peter-whoever- the-heck-he-is” to make a return appearance, but as for the “Dunkletrain,” it has left Port Charles station for the… Read more »

As ridiculous as it can be…I so agree with you…I still don’t mind if I love the character!

Mary SF: You had me laughing! Thank you! I’m glad I’m not the only one who saw it this way… 🙂

Mary SF…forgive me but your comment had me ROTFL…LOL!!!!! And…I can just imagine the stories being T-O-L-D at the Annual Family Reunion…LOL!!!!! ALL KINDS OF A-W-K-W-A-R-D!!!!! Oh, one more time…LOL!!!!!!!

Take care, Mary. XOXOXOXOXO

Right on, Jimmy! It’s bizarre, but evidently anything goes at that “Clinic.”

Mary SF… LOL!

Agree with everyone; but it was in keeping with Sonny and Ava having crypt sex at AJ’s funeral. Ron’s taken stress release to a whole new level!

James, that was my initial reaction too. I agree that we should be able to point out what isn’t working. Then I thought about it. There’s been a lot of negative feedback in this forum coming from disgruntled fans and I think we’ve had good reason to complain. Some of us (yes, me especially) have been rather redundant with our complaints. I am not Michael Fairman, and I don’t play him on television but I can only surmise that maybe because GH has finally produced a decent hour of entertainment that now is not the time to complain. Maybe positive… Read more »

Very good points, Harry! In my daily life, I try to be as positive and happy as possible (in part because that’s who I am and in part because people respond better to that type of person), but there is a critic in me, too. I think, in general, GH’s producer and head writer have done a remarkable job, particularly with the 50th anniversary celebratory year. For far too long, however, GH was a dark show, and the bulk of that darkness has been the tunnelvision focus on Sonny and the ad nauseum mob storylines. I know that Maurice Benard… Read more »

I agree, James!
You know how some people say,”I’m gonna kill you?” but they’re usually just kidding? Sonny really means it. And he shoots first and asks questions later.
He’s a Kingpin but he’s dumber than a box of rocks. It’s like,”Opps. Sorry I killed you.
And how many times has he said,”I’m gonna take him out?” But not once have to seen him wine and dine the likes of Alcazar, Jullian or Carlos. I bet they feel so cheap and disrespected.

All true and funny, Harry! But even if Sonny were to wine and dine Alcazar, Julian, or Carlos (separately or all at once), we know he would still eventually end up with Carly…

Hey There James, 1. Dude…stop being so reasonable. Oh, I’m kidding…LOL!!!!! 2. More and more, your comments are SO PERFECTLY SPOT ON!!!!! Thanks a bunch!!!!! 3. I, also, try to be happy and positive. That is how my parents (especially my mom) raised me. But, I, also, have a critic in me. And…the critic in me is NOT AFRAID to open my mouth!!!!! Nope. 4. Yes…Maurice Benard is a good actor. But…of the two, Maurice’s former AMC character of Nico Kelly was WAY MORE LIKABLE than his current GH character of Sonny Corinthos. And I know of AT LEAST 22… Read more »

Jay, you’re too kind and too enjoyable, as always! 🙂

Thanks for your understanding and support! I like your additional adjectives to describe Sonny. You’re definitely right about Nico on AMC, a much more enjoyable character! I could root for him, for sure.

See you, Friend!

James,

Dude…if I were a character on GH, I SURE AS HELL wouldn’t let that TRULY LAME Sonny wine and dine me. Hell…I wouldn’t even let Sonny buy me an ICEE…LOL!!!!!

See ya’…Friend!!!!!

Hey Jimmy. Yes, I agree. I actually liked her from the beginning; don’t know why…just didn’t take me long to adjust to her like some others. Mentioned this in another post so I agree here too…they were both great and their love/bond really came through. But Dominic’s rage in that one particular scene…ugg…I just FELT the frustration of him wanting so desperately to protect his wife…so glad they had Dante do that.

I don’t think I’d want him redeemed…where’s the fun in that? 😉

(But if they can redeem Franco, they can redeem anyone! They could say his insanity had thawed…or, in medical terminology, deep freeze destroyed his insanity cells.)

Hi rebecca1,

I agree. And, IMO, I’ve always thought that a soap should have at least 2 villains (one male, one female). I still feel that way. Bottom Line Here (at least for me): Soap villains=More FUN FUN FUN!!!!!

LATER GATOR!!!!! Peace.
