GENERAL HOSPITAL: Franco Charms Liz, Sam Faints, Jax & Carly Don't See Eye To Eye!

98
Sam is either pregnant or she has come down with a foreign mystery illness. If it’s the latter: If she ever makes it back to Port Charles, Dr. Finn will properly diagnose her and treat her.
She’s probably pregnant. Nina will end up with that kid somehow.
pregnant? she barely takes care of the one she’s got, why give her another one? i prefer if she came down w/ some foreign virus that way she would have to be isolated from everyone.
I’m with you, Marie….same old, same old. No matter how hard TPTB try to make this character interesting; she fails big time with me. No personality. Are we to feel empathy? Funny how women pass out on the onset of pregnancy. How often does this happen? I have never fainted, pregnant or otherwise. And, Jason? Well, Marie….I doubt any of us believed he was dead. The guy has nine lives, so we all knew he’d turn up sooner or later. Who cares? Been there done that….super hero piloted an airplane (wonder of all wonders), saved everyone on board and then… Read more »
Very good Celia- we all knew that Jason was going to be alive and the hero once again ( prop, prop). He flies a plane – never had a lesson, but remembers how. I was actually waiting for Jason to arrive with them carrying groceries from a store and having a hotel room rented for them to all stay in till rescued.
According to the way things are written lately.
@Angel.
Thank you, Angel.
You made me smile with the imaginary groceries ‘s ‘skit’, et al.
i think these are “skills” he was trained to do when under Helena’s control, which is why he can’t remember why or how he knows certain things, but he instinctively knows he does.
@CeeCee…”No matter how hard TPTB try to make this character interesting, she fails big time with me.” That’s exactly the way I feel about Nina!
@Shay.
Hey, Shaybelle. LOL. I get it, believe me, I get it!!!!! Thing is I have come to love Kelly Monaco. She’s sweet and down to earth. And, as I have said, TPTB need to step-up both Sam and Michelle.
It’s healthy to disagree as long as we do not throw punches, mia bella.
By the by? I have a feeling Nik will show up at Ava’s. ….never know; he may already be hiding in her apartment/condo. LOL….XXOO.
@CeeCeeGirl…Oh, I hear you!!!!! Just wanted to quickly respond here (again) to let you know that I’ve repeatedly sent you replies which failed to post…once before in this spot and twice on the “Roger” page. This leaves the impression that I’ve given your thoughts the cold shoulder, and such is most certainly not the case. “All is well,” indeed….we’re cool. I just wish that I could send you a personal message so that you would know that I do understand—I “get it”—but alas, even that request was apparently denied the last time. However, with a bit of luck, you’ll get… Read more »
When was the last time those people ate or drank something? Maybe Sam just is the weakest link.
Roger and Becky have great chemistry. Franco and Liz though, are very creepy given their history.
Yesterday they had all the arrows pointing at Jax as the culprit. I am just very afraid to ask how that all ties in with Jake’s kidnapping though.
I agree Franco and Elizabeth do not mesh, him and Nina were fantastic together.
I see Jax knowing the truth all along about what happened to Jake- knowing him- probably helped with it.
We do think alike, Angel. I said the same thing. Jax is hiding an essential, if not the most important piece to this ‘kidney’ puzzle issue. He knows more than he’s letting on.
Jax? Do you mean he helped to conceal things…or that he really helped. Jax is a good guy and would never hurt a child.
They better not repeat the pattern of vilifying Jax in order to prop up Sonny.
no preg for sam please…let her be ill…let finn be hero and save predictable yawn stuff…hope luke isnt retyrnin
Laura never opened that damn letter he left her!
hope amy is the killer
That’s what I’m thinkin, but GH writers don’t like it when the fans figure out their oh so predictable plot lines. We knew the older gray-haired doctor was the killer, but we ALL figured that out, so they kill him and extend the stupid sl because they’re offended that we aren’t as dumb as they think.
I had to wonder if Amy is the killer but also Josslyn’s donor. The way the writers are on soaps these days, Amy could get busted for playing God with human lives but at the same time, get off the hook without any punishment because of her good deed saving a little girl’s life. Hey, weirder things have happened on our stories!!!
Really loving Friz. Great new pairing.
Friz? Has that been out there or did u just think it up? Lol…I like them too. If they actually let this couple evolve they could be great together as Elizabeth is an artist too. Great fun I would think to share that passion and it would get Luz painting again.
I like em too. I wish Roger was not Franco, but it is what it is.
I especially like it when Franco and LIzzy discuss art theory and the Impressionists.
Great to see Jax back. What a pro! Michael Easton is good but Ingo made Michael look like a school boy! Enough with the lizard! We get that Finn is weird! Cheap sets continue, Franco’s Cave was a joke! Remember when James Franco was on, his studio was big and freakie! How about JorDUMB bitching at Amy about her peeking into the police record that she instructed Amy to deliver only! First of all, why give an official police report to a civilian? Secondly, its AMY! And how to Jordan and Valerie find Franco’s lair? The Super cops are wasting… Read more »
Oh my gosh would you please stop I can’t take anymore of this great sarcasm I am rolling on the floor!you are getting too good at this!!!
K-ster, the longer I live the more I learn to laugh at life instead of fretting over things I have no control over.
I’m actually really liking Valentin, and am intrigued to see what his plan is! Since he and Nina slept together on Tuesday’s episode, I’m curious as to how she fits into it. Plus, it gives Nina a storyline (which she badly needs) and the two have great chemistry together.
Well, you know Nina will get pregnant with a Cassadine baby.
@T I love it just keep it coming you are hysterical without being mean as everybody thinks now days it is fun to laugh at the absurd things that happen on soaps I am very disappointed in the storylines but when I read your sarcasm it makes me smile. Kudos
forced chemistry next they will pair her with the town cat please quit trying soon hatd
So hard sorry!
I am sad not going to watch anymore can’t deal with this good luck to all of you who can
I never gave Andre a second thought, my Timmmy. But, perhaps this is the idea….steer culpability away from Andre. Good call, my guy…..never liked shifty Andre, anyway. I also agree that Valentin is a bust. I am so disappointed. But, I must admit this is my own fault. I put too much emphasis on how ‘evil’ or supremely ‘fantastico’ a new character should be like in behavior, looks etc. Valentin has not met my expectations. And, the fact that Nina fell into bed with him( as sweaty and fraught with heavy breathing ad it may have been), I wanted La… Read more »
Never liked Andre either. JELLY stated in an interview that the killer would be someone you wouldnt expect. I wouldnt expect him. I think the biggest problem with Valentin is Helena said he is the worst of the bunch! Well, so far, what has he done? He shot Nick. Well, we know he is alive. He shot Kevin. Well, he and Laura are falling for each other so Kevin will not die. AND, to top it off, he got to tap a super HOT cougar! I’m not afraid of him, I’m envious! You want devious, have him kill Sabs, Crychael… Read more »
@CeeCee….I definitely could buy Andre as the culprit behind the hospital killings….sometimes psychiatrists are the nuttiest ones in the bunch!!!! Quite frankly, there was always something about him from the fore that created a feeling of personal unease….although I couldn’t put my finger on it! I’m just so glad that Anna wasn’t more engaged with this creepy character….the fact that not-so-intrepid police commissioner Jordan has had the wool pulled over her eyes where this guy is concerned just goes to show how truly inept she is in her job….no intuition whatsoever! Having said that, I also agree over your disappointment… Read more »
Ok saw why is Josselyn ten years older then Spencer?
Josselyn was an infant when this transplant happened now she is that much older then Spencer and Jake this is total crap
Uhm Dante and Sam look kind of pretty together
Well, they both share the same lackluster skill set of detective and private investigator. Dante, not sure he’s ever cracked a case. Sam, her investigator skills leave A LOT to be desired.
Perfect, dmr.
lol, hey i noticed that too, of course nothing will ever happen, but they do look good together.
I caught that too MT. They meshed together nicely.
One thing I take serious issue with in the Fiz pairing is that Liz has been horribly raped before and at a very young age, so why do they insist in having Franco trap her in enclosed areas where she seemingly has no way of escape. Rape is not a subject to take lightly and the writers should respect this character’s history with that. He pulls the stop button on the elevator, he takes her to some darkened studio and they make a point of zooming in on him locking, chaining and bolting the door like the Hulk was about… Read more »
I could not agree more. It’s absolutely disgusting to pair a rapist with a rape victim. Actually, it’s disgusting to pair a rapist with anyone, but I digress. The constant harping on his trapping her and the suggestion on the part of the show that he might do something to harm her is gross, distasteful, and honestly irresponsible. It’s 2016; the show writers should know better.
thing is;
It is not real..
it is fictional stories.
no one was actually raped
it’s just storytelling. So it really makes no difference was because time has moved on into now stories.
Thing is, fiction is a reflection of reality and shapes the way people see the world. It’s irresponsible storytelling. Look at the recent Stanford rape trial to see rape culture in action. Fiction isn’t produced in a vacuum; it’s informed by and informs culture. In 2016, I would have thought we’d moved past pairing rapists with rape victims.
You bet, Kristin.
You have just reenforced my philosophy. Everything generated on TV, movies, books etc. reflects reality and influences society.
My dear su, we all know it’s a soap….but, if we are to follow a story; a semblance of respect for the viewer is expected.
You are too forgiving, SuzieQ.
I understand your point and would ordinarily agree but I think it was established that : A) he did act out due to his tumor and B) he didn’t rape anyone. He made Sam THINK he raped her but didn’t and if he was telling the truth didn’t tell the actual rapist to hurt Michael…just scare him to get to Jason. Do I remember this correctly? What I don’t remember is if he actually killed people. THATI think he actual did, but again, big leap of faith for Carly, then Nina, Kiki and now Liz to believe he wasn’t in… Read more »
Good post and great point!
Yes, you have a point- but I see it as showing Elizabeth’s strengths. Even after going through all she did- she survived and is stronger for it. They showed her a little uneasy with the situation–but she didn’t fall apart- she kept her wits about her and stood strong. Elizabeth is not a push – over, she can handle Franco and as a nurse she realizes what Franco was in his past was due to a tumor..and she is giving him the benefit of the doubt now. He has done nothing to her to make her mistrust him or even… Read more »
Good for you, Angel. Great post! Intuitive!!
Why is Nina wearing her vagina on her sleeve? Can she get a pet or something?!?!?! I mean if it moves–she’s a flirtin with it! Run Roxy run!!!
THIS SOAP COULD GET RID OF THIS CHARACTER AND I DONT THINK MANY PEOPLE WOULD MISS HER……FAST-FORWARD TIME!!!
Stafford and Howarth got the “Great actor, terrible character” disease!
You would be mistaken, JK……. I, among many, vote for Nina to stay. Viva Michelle Stafford!!!!!
Love her forever.
Speaking of Roxie. She is not the original. Doesn’t she look like an Albino, baby gila monster?
So, CeeCee, has the role of Roxie has been recast?….Perhaps the showrunners want to take her character in a different direction! (You know, less “service pet,” and more “independent lizard?” Maybe she’ll even leave Finn for Sonny….) Just a thought……
@Shay.
Yes, Shaybelle.
Lol….I did mention on another post that Roxie broke up with Finn. She moved on….. to ‘greener’ pastures.
I liked the original Roxie better. This one has no personality, don’t you think? Her coloring is so dull. HaHa!!
Word is they are having the same problem with Roxie as they are having with Billy over at Y&R! The original Roxie rules!
@Timmm.
Good one, Timmmy. Love the analogy between Roxie and Billy.
@Letemeatc8ke…..Somebody had to pick up the show’s sexual slack whilst Alexis gives her lady parts a rest, so I guess Nina drew the short straw!
Lol, yeah Shay, Alexis has been called on to perform some Olympic sized work outs. No offense to Valentine with the “short straw” comment, I’m sure.
Shay, my dear friend,
I have answered you, as well….but, I see the post did not make. Sobeit. Again, “all’s well”.
I leave it up to the moderators to use their discretion.
OMG!@Letemeatc8ke! It never occurred to me that Valentin may have been underwhelming in the manhood department…..I just meant that it was time for some other post-menopausal minx to go to town beneath the bedsheets now that an exhausted Alexis is taking a well-deserved break from her overactive libido, and it would seem that Nina has been selected as GH’s designated “back-up” floozy from the over-50 set! (Not that either Anna or Laura could ever be suitable candidates, but I suppose the desperate for attention Lucy Coe would always be up for another “walk of shame” escapade, especially given that she’s… Read more »
I am embarrassed for GH .. It is so very dull…. uneventful, stale and dry. A plane crash we didn’t see lol .. no one slightly injured .. and a whole show of them standing on sand doing absolutely nothing. They were on Cassidine Island, a very dangerous place where the devil himself Valentin was with his hitmen and nothing. No excitement, none. Nickols shot, no drama to it and fell out a window, then nothing lol whatshisname shot and Laura took a bullet out, no drama to it just scary red hands. GH has lost itself .. It no… Read more »
how would you know that GH has become unrecognizable? you claim Laura isn’t a Vet, and the only writer whose work your impress with is Ron C. wish most of us long time vets grew to not respect, you need to understand he’s not coming back, he burn his bridges and although Gh isn’t fully at its best yet, it has a better chance with Roc C gone thats for sure.
Hi aria ..
you have not read correctly..
I have never ever said Genie/Laura was not a vet.
I said– to me she is avnewbie…
I have not watched GH for 45 years and was not watching during the era of Luke and Laura, she is new to me.
And– you are again wrong..
I was greatly impressed with Guza and Ron, both.
Never say never on a RC return 🙂
I’m actually enjoying the show and love that we”re seeing Scott, Lucy, Jax..keep em coming please. I like the mix of vets and newbies and am into most oif the characters and their stories. Yeah, it’s a juggling act but I don’t mind it. If they focused on only one story that I found boring that’d be different. But I kinda like em all…
Agreed, su. Why didn’t Sam take off her spiky-heeled booties? Ava did. I like what you said…” She is little, she is short, own it” . From a ‘little, short’ woman, myself….I appreciate that. I own it, su.
Liz may not have much to do…But, she is so beautiful…..such natural, fresh beauty.
@Celia….I’m convinced that Sam’s stiletto booties can only be removed via surgical means because, yes, she is that attached to them!!!!
Shay, that is so ‘cutely’ hilarious. I think you’re right.
Let’s face it….we all wear stilettos some time or other. But, there’s a time and place for everything.
I wonder if Kelly wears them to/at the beach.
She has such a cute, little body, she needs no enhancement.
He doesn’t know her anymore, shes changed a lot & does NOT lie like she used to & he has no right to tell her what to do when she does all the parenting & he just takes the kid on vacations, wasn’t even really around during the transplant I hate that arrogant sob & this short visit isn’t short enough day 2 & wish Sonny would kill him
Hahahaha, yessss!!!
Loved the Friz date! I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how great this pairing is. Roger and Becky have my attention!
Mine too!
Very sweet, these two are. Franco is genuine…Liz, still a little hesitant, for lack of a better word. But, ‘willing’ just the same.
I just wish Franco had ‘handled’ Nina a little more delicately. I am over it, though, as I am rooting for Nina and Curtis.
Yes, Celia!
Is it me, or did anyone else think Franco’s studio was Sabrina’s and Felix’s old apartment with a lot stuff thrown into it– maybe when they do a search of the place they might find Felix’s sister who went into a bedroom and was never seen again
It’s not you. They reuse sets a lot to save money.
Yep, I noticed, too. They should’ve said it was in the same bldg., to explain its appearance. It’s just like Liz’s new house being a retooled version of the old Webber house, most recently owned by Mac and Felicia before it burnt down.
Did S&F’s apt come before Liz’s art studio, cause it used to be that, as well.
the island storyline is getting boring. I dont think Franco is the serial killer. Maybe its that nurse Amy as she knows everything going on around GH.
It was really refreshing to see Jax again. I really miss Ingo and wish he would return full time. And for that matter, bring back Vanessa Marcil as Brenda too. They are both much more compelling than half the characters on the show. I’m really liking Franco and Liz together, which surprises me to say because I never thought of them as a couple before. I was a huge Nina and Franco fan, but now I’m intrigued to see where “Friz” will go, and how Nina will fit into Valentin’s plan. I think Andre is the killer. He’s been suspiciously… Read more »
hey Jimmy..
Sam is not pregnant.
She is not throwing up, morning sickness.
you can’t be pregnant without the throwing up, often .
she has whichever deadly illness that Finn can cure..
Not true, su. A woman may be nauseous without vomiting (ever) in her first trimester of pregnancy. Not everyone “throws up”. I did not.
Yeah, they sign Ingo and Vanessa and we will never see them! It took Laura OVER a year to get on screen more than once a week! FV likes HIS people only!
What cracked me up was when Liz asked, “Where are we?” Really Liz, you don’t remember the studio you actually had for quiet a few years. The one you screwed around with Jason in and screwed around on Lucky. It’s almost the exact set.
I thought the Franco studio was Sabrina & Felix’s old place reused.
I thought it was Dante and Lulu’s old loft, hahaha.
The killer is either Nurse Amy or Dr. Maddox.
Is Franco’s art studio Dante and Lulu’s old loft? Sam faints? Who cares. Sam’s monotone and investigator skills leave A LOT to be desired.
Unless Gh is going to rewrite history —yet again to prop Jasam ( killing Jake wasn’t enough) Sam cannot be pregnant again. Before Danny was born- sam was told by the Drs. that her eggs ( way back then even) were only 10% viable and she would never be pregnant. She was told to adopt if wanted a child. But miracle of miracles – along comes Danny. Now are we going to have another miracle child –years later? Maybe the writers need to hand out this “miracle cure” to all the women out there watching the show- who have the… Read more »
Wow, great dissertation Angel!
😀
Totes agree about the JaSam stuff. 1st thing Sam does is go to see her mom to t
But the first thing she asks about is what her mom remembers about Valentin and her time on the island….then she asks how she is and what happened.That really floored me. My first words would of been all about my mother…then when that is all done – then the rest of the stuff. Priorities , I guess.
the reason this show is going to be cancelled is bc they still have they are still writing for all of ron’s creations. there was a reason ron was fired. he was good for a time, but after a while he had too many characters no one cared about, and strange storylines. if these new writers came in, they should not have felt obligated to keep on the ron legacy (unless there were good parts). they should have immediately came in, and cut at least 5 people out. instead they tried to dress them all up and make them more… Read more »
by new hires, i meant new actors.
I don’t think it’s Andre. He’s another one I like. You have the good/bad boy Curtis and I agree he’s really good looking…and then you have Andre who’s the good-looking, less street-wise type good guy. I still think he might wind up with Anna, at least for a bit. But since she’s going to be off the canvas for a while they may have changed course. Speaking of Anna, I originally hated Paul but I like him now. If Julian and Alexis are really over…much to the crowd’s dismay they might not be…but if Alexis is single again I could… Read more »
