Could Helene Cassidine really be Tim Spencer, father of Pat, Luke and Bobbi?-B&B is doing a transgender storyline so maybe GH is doing one too???

Shay, i want GH to keep Sappy because i always love your comments about her-id missed that if Saperella was gone. Under my nurses ball comments way above i wrote a little scenerio about her myself and i dedicate it to you!!! P.S. one about Alexis too!!!

Sabrina is and always has been a good hearted character. To see deceit or manipulation in her is a complete lack of understanding of Sabrina. She genuinely loved Patrick and Emma and she has no interest in Michael. He approached her to work in the clinic, he approached her to be Avery’s nanny ( AJ’s nanny sounded a tad weird considering…but I digress). I know there are the die-hard hate Sabrina haters..and that’s okay. Just like in real life there are people we like snd click with and people we don’t. But deceit, manipulation, insincerity are not valid reasons…they’re simply not part of how this character was written.

As for Michael being hypocritical, I think it appears that way but there’s still a huge part if Michael that is, like Sabrina, honest and trysting. Instead of seeing Sabrina as some evil, dangerous woman who tried to harm his sister, he understands the temporary breakdown she hadm the grief she went through, the revenge she sought…and also realized that in the end she realized her break from reality, her complete anguish and her conscience ep which caused her to warn Ava and admit, as well as apologize for what she had done. Whether one would feel safe, or should frust her with a baby is debatable, not because she’s not good but because she be arnpms so emotionally fragile and broken…you could fear that unintentionally something could trigger that again, though I don’t it. To a judge however…probably won’t work in Michael’s favor.

I completely agree with everytthibpng zhzrry said about Morgans plot against Michael. Literally think the sam rep thing. Terrible…can’t see hoepw any of these people can come together as a family again…

Annnnnnnd. It happened again.

Hi Rose…
You’re not going out on a limb. I totally agree with you regarding Sabrina. She really is one of the sincerest, good intentioned characters on the show. Michael is as well.

@su…you’re right in the sense that soaps are made of this kind if stuff…but this tear between Michael and Sinny goes so deep…from Sonny keeping AJ and michael apart, poisoning Micharls Monday against AJ, threatening and finally killing AJ…the father whom Michael came to love…having sex at his crypt…now Michael taking away Sonny’s baby…and Morhsn repeating the sins of his mother by trying to make Michael appear drunk and und unfit…there’s so much betrayal all around it would be more absurd for them to reconcile than it would be for Anna to be running Around with a Faison mask on and making out with Dr. O! 🙂

Shay,

I don’t loathe Sabrina to the same extent that you do, but I’m more than done w/the character. I actually didn’t mind her initially, but sorry, the tripping over her lines, forgetting her lines, is tiresome, especially no more lines than she has had in the last year! It actually makes me mad & here’s why:

I don’t mind if GH hires newbies-Nathan is new, yes, he’s stiff, I guess, but he always knows his lines & he doesn’t trip over his lines. He actually HAS improved since his 1st day. I went back and reviewed. IMO, Sabrina continues to get worse.
The horrible writing w/her lighting candles & suddenly speaking like The Godfather, “don’t worry my son, justice will be mine”..WHAT? I didn’t know when we lost our minds our vocabulary changed with it! So it was bad writing that a bad actress couldn’t pull off. I 1st thought, maybe the volume is too heavy for her, but when she came back form maternity leave, she was worse, not better. Now she doesn’t have much dialogue, but clearly is still getting paid, so why not take lessons on your days off? What’s wrong with that? You have been given a gift here. You’re on a hit show w/no experience, so why not study your craft? Even Jason Thompson still studies his craft & he’s a vet.

For GH to even write this sl, Sabrina as Avery’s nanny is offensive to me! The character says she’s all better, but she’s gotten 0 therapy, just like everyone else on this show. Nothing has changed w/her. Yet, she’s all better now. Let’s just take her word for it. Nevermind she lost it a few months before that and put her wedding dress back on thinking she was back at her wedding day. She only needs a trigger. Whose to say Avery isn’t a trigger? I’m the only 1 that thought Kiki should’ve knocked her block off yesterday! I don’t think Kiki knows that Sonny put a gun to Ava’s head does she? I can’t imagine she would do be supporting Sonny or Morgan if she did. Why not try to get custody herself? What bothers me about the “let’s set Michael up” sl is why is that even necessary? He paid the judge off. Or, persuaded the judge to give him custody. Judge won’t listen to Morgan anyway. And if they took it to a higher court, why wouldn’t they just use the fact that Michael hired Avery’s attempted killer as her nanny? That’s provable. She lost her job over it. So the whole setup sl is convoluted.

All this plus Rosie is such a better actress. I feel she was pushed out of a sl w/Michael for Sabrina. Too bad. If we only get 1 female Latino on a soap at once (insert sarcasm), I prefer her.

@Laurie….Thank you for your response. I have long enjoyed your thoughtful commentaries and keen insights here at MFSoaps, so it’s a treat to share our mutual views—and to discuss those which may be otherwise. To begin, I just wanted to clarify that in terms of Ryan Paevey, I don’t necessarily agree that he is not doing a good job or deserves the constant bashing he receives on this website….he has vastly improved during this past year ….it’s quite obvious that he takes his role seriously and has put in the time to sharpen his dramatic skills, and I commend him for that. I was merely contrasting the amount of guff he takes here for his initially stilted performances with that of the woefully deficient actress who portrays Sappy. Save for me, and one or two other brave souls, few have weighed in on this comparable topic prior to your eloquent assessment. And yet, all of your observations are absolutely spot on….I have taken like notice of them from way back when, and as you have rightfully pointed out, there has been no demonstrable upward trajectory in this person’s acting abilities since the debut of her character….she has remained totally perfunctory and amateurish….at best. While my issues with her have included the very nature of said role and what I consider to be the patently ridiculous storyline(s) surrounding it—not to mention the laughable dialogue assigned to her—my most particular grievance was with the prominent position this character was warranted from her first appearance, most certainly not an enjoyable viewing experience given her highly apparent need for the rest of the cast to act as a crutch for her extremely green attempts at drama…..her obvious lack of finesse and attention to her craft drove me to complete distraction, along with resentment that so many really fine fellow cast members were repeatedly given the short shrift in both screen time and plotlines in her favor. Having said that, I am in total agreement with your opinion of the Avery scenario….the manner in which this poor babe has been passed around like a basket of fruit since her brutally forced birth has always rubbed me the wrong way, and the latest twisted development surrounding this precious infant’s custody and care is truly one gone too far. Even though I could see this idiocy coming from a mile away, I still cannot believe that there weren’t any responsible adults in Michael’s current sphere (Monica, Tracy?) that didn’t recognize and voice what an insane (pardon the pun….) notion it was to have the insufferable she-me with the questionable grasp on reality serve as any child’s caregiver, let alone the very one she sought to eliminate before it even could draw its first breath. But hey, Sappy says it was all just a silly mistake and she’s just fine now, so that makes everything hunky-dory, right? Why is it that her lame excuses, pitiful apologies and especially, personal assurances of purportedly restored sanity, continue to be met at face value with no further verification from a qualified professional when anyone with an ounce of sense can recognize that she is still on the brink of lunacy and as you have stated, only in need of yet another trigger to send her back over the edge? Totally beggars belief, doesn’t it? No individual in a position of public trust who perpetrates such an aberrant act of abuse like the kind this nurse did in her targeting of an unsuspecting expectant Ava should ever again be allowed to look after any patient or other person following such an egregious lapse of judgment…period. (And as for that nursing license, it needs to be permanently suspended, as well!) Ergo, I also concur with you that Kiki should have gone totally ballistic on this nitwit when she was parading Miss Jerome’s baby sister around town…(Furthermore, I sincerely hope that the return to the courtroom in the subsequent quest for this child’s “best interests” will include a scathing smackdown on Mary Poppins’ dubious record of achievements.) Ditto for the chick I call “Grossalie”….while her unpleasant and abrasive nature has not endeared her to me, she was totally in the right to address the self-important Sappy in the manner she did when the so-called nanny just traipsed into Michael’s office like she owned the place….copping such an attitude with Rosie when she was simply practicing good office etiquette as the Quartermaine heir’s PA was uncalled for, and quite frankly, I would like to have seen Ms. Martinez kick that obnoxious Sapster butt all the way to the waterfront…if anyone would be up to such a task, it would most certainly be the fierce Rosalie!!!! As for future run-ins between these two, I definitely smell a cat fight coming on. I predict “Team Rosie” for the win…you go, girl!
