GENERAL HOSPITAL: Will The Port Charles Earthquake Cause A Seismic Shift To The Couples On The Canvas?

Friday’s cliffhanger of General Hospital brought with it plenty of the shakes!
Just as people were positioned in proximity to one another who were arch enemies, or former lovebirds, the Port Charles earthquake began to play out putting lives on the line.
Let’s take a look at what we know thus far: Josslyn (Eden McCoy) and Oscar (Garren Stitt) are trapped in the ice freezer at the Floating Rib after stealing a moment alone in the middle of the “alternative dance” they were hosting when the quake erupts. Inside the ‘Rib’, former flames Drew (Billy Miller) and Kim (Tamara Braun) end up together when he grabs her to save her from falling debris and the quake. Bets are these two will certainly ‘bond’ over trying to rescue their son, Oscar, once they realize he is MIA. Will Drew recover a missing memory of his that triggers some feelings for Kim?

Meanwhile, Sam (Kelly Monaco) who left Drew as a chaperone at the “alternative dance” heads to the Quatermaines to pick-up Danny, and who is there? Jason (Steve Burton)! As the quake begins, Jason grabs Sam to save her and to help her take cover. This will leave these two alone, and perhaps trapped together. Will this be the trigger to rekindle their romance, or will they both continue to fight their feelings?
Then there is Michael (Chad Duell), who before the quake told Jason that if anything was to happen to him or Nelle, he would want Jason to raise their unborn baby. Why did Michael say that? Could we lose Michael? And as fate would have it, Carly (Laura Wright) and Nelle (Chloe Lanier) are together duking it out in their verbal sparring when the earthquake begins. Will Nelle go into premature labor? Will Carly help her? Will something else horrible go down?

Finally, we saw Franco (Roger Howarth) struggling with the horror that he may have pushed Drew down the stairs as a child confronting Jim Harvey (Greg Evigan) at his construction site. Franco missed his wedding to Liz (Rebecca Herbst) in the process. And even though Jim says he can confirm that Franco threw Drew down the stairs since he was there, Franco believes there is more to the story and Jim is lying. And BOOM! Earthquake! These two will be stuck together, most likely. Will Franco finally uncover the long buried truth, or will Harvey perish with some secrets? Many questions to be answered next week on GH!
So, what do you think will go down between the pairings on GH affected, and in peril, by the Port Charles earthquake? Comment below!
247
Would like to see some real Jasam feelings happen. And Drew to at least start remembering some of his past. And evil Nelle to come out on top and actually marry Michael. And Laura to return and be sent mysterious clues to end up finding both Lucky and Nicholas and bring them home.
Anything, just anything to get Genie Francis back where she belongs. Let’s right this horrible wrong once and for all!!
Yes, get Genie back on the show!!!! I’m very disappointed in GH for letting her go. I’m also upset over them writing Nathan out! What’s wrong with these writers?
Second the emotion! 🙂
Yes!! But I Don’t Want Nellie To Marriage Michael. I would like to see Sabrina COME BACK!!! With Michael child.
Hasn’t Michael already suffered enough?????? He needs the return of Sabs like he needs a concussion…oh, wait a minute!!! Anyway, I like Nelle much better…the girl’s got some bite and fight to her, which comes in handy since Carly is always butting in where her son is concerned!
The earthquake will jar Drew’s memory, Phyllis…..could this be the reason for the quake?
A more significant question would be: was this a bonafide earthquake or did the Harvey-minions ‘stir’ the sleeping monster?……what caused the rumbling ‘neath the the surfacce—-is there a gold mine down there in which they blasted?
Or…..is it Helena?
The cause of the earthquake will most likely turn out to be Jim secretly “fracking” pocket of natural gas which are beneath the Charles Street area. This destructive & toxic process has been causing dozens of earthquakes in recent years, in states not previously known for earthquakes, as opposed to the West Coast of the US, or other nations around the Pacific Rim where quakes are common occurances, due to natural geological movments beneath the earth’s surface. (Or “ceiling rumblings”, as we call them down here in Hell.)
I was thinking the same thing you were about Harvey stirring something up Especially since after the incident at Chatlie’s pub
I believe there is oil under the property they are fighting over.
I believe the delicious delight Jim Harvey caused the quake and I just hope Amy is crushed by a steel beam!
@Teri.
Hey, Teri,
The Northeast has had a couple of earthquakes ….read Satan’s post…..he explained it well.
@Fanny.
Thank you, my lady Fanny. I hope Harvey gets help for Franco….if he doesn’t? It would only mean one thing to me….he wants Franco to perish because he is remembering too much. I love Greg; I do not like Harvey…..very iffy.
@Timmm.
LOL, T…..Amy and Jordan and Carly and Sonny ( I know that’ll never happen) …..I better stop before shoes go flying at me—–at one fell swoop, my Timmmy!
@Margarita.
Hi, Margarita,
TPTB are making this so easy for us, Margarita, right? This guy appears out of nowhere …..he ‘attacked’ Charles Street with a vengeance, and a purpose–MONEY!!
He is a baddie.
Hey, CeeCee…I smelled this anti-fracking storyline a mile away and stated so in a previous post to you, which I guess you failed to receive, as it didn’t make it online….. As I previously mentioned, the gold you to whih you referred was actually “Black Gold, Texas Tea”….and the next thing you know, Old Jim’s a billionaire! Yep, that was the method to his madness all along. As for those who were skeptical regarding earthquakes in the East, I’m sure you are aware that they have happened in both recent and historically past years long before fracking ever took place….I… Read more »
@Shay. Hi, again, Dhay, Yes, earthquakes happening in the East may be rare, but they have happened, do happen and will happen again….learning more and more about the history ( geological, and otherwise) of our country, and the world, is a passion for me—my brain is like a sponge, LOL… I think you get it, as I know yours is, as well. I have yet to figure out the reason for this….at first, I thought it would be to eliminate characters. I will not check the mishap off, though….as mediocre and repetitious this disaster appears, I strongly feel that this… Read more »
@Shay
Oopsies…my deepest apologies for misspelling your name, Shay…’D’ is right next to ‘S’…..see that? LOL.
Another thing? This ‘incident’ proved what a good little actor Oscar is!! Big jump from just a few weeks ago….albeit, I was a bit disappointed with Joss’ rendition as the worried girlfriend.
Eden always gives it her all…..didn’t see it here. ‘Shellshocked’?
Pardon my French, but Harvey is a Mother Fracker!
The Bear would be so disappointed in him.
Oh yes, CeeCeeGirl, we do share a keen interest in history, and I have to say mine has been awakened now more than ever by those who seek to obliterate the past from our present with revisionism and the destruction of cultural/national symbols and landmarks….I believe all vestiges of what came before us need to be preserved for future generations….the good, the bad and the ugly, since as Santayana so presciently observed, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” As for this earthquake business, it really was quite lackluster in terms of both drama and spectacle,… Read more »
@Harry.
Oh, Jesus, Mary and Joseph….Harrryyy????
I knew that was you in my inbox……can you see my ‘laughter-tears’ streaming down my cheeks? My husband thinks I’ve lost it….sitting in bed, belly-laughing…..A Mother Fracker??? I can’t….Now I have a tummy ache and a stitch in my side from laughing so hard!!!! Oh, my Gooood!!
Hell yes to all of the above
Exactly!!!!! Bc when does the North East have earthquakes ,
I believe…………SATAN!!!! is correct with HIS or HER Fracking theory.
Yes I would love for this too happen.
Would like to see Nicholas and Lucky to come back, Laura to have a great story, Spencer to come back, Nelle to get her punishment . I want Maxi to have a healthy baby. Jason and Sam to be together. Drew together with Kim
I would like to see Nellie exposed with what she is doing and Micheal done with her for good. As for Jason I would like to see him with Kim just to give Sam some of her own medicine back. What she did to Jason was horrible.
Nicholas is sadly on days of our lives ☹
I believe and want Jason and Sam together.
Yes, agree with all
OMG!! I hope that everyone is ok except Nell. I hope Drew remembers his love for the new Doc. I hope Jason and Sam get together.
Yes!! Jason & Sam belong together! I have NEVER liked Drew, ugh! He needs to move on with Dr. Kim & their son Oscar & just be a family!
Let’s hope Nelle is ok,Diva….she’s carrying an innocent babe.
Yes yes yes to all except Nelle marrying Michael.
I don’t want that to happen, either, L.Lawrence…..but, perhaps, for different reasons from yours, LOL. See, Michael is a milksop…..mama’s boy; no matter how TPTB try to show his ‘manly’ independence. He completely gave in to Sonny and his mother for killing his father….no, Carly may not have pulled the trigger, nor did Michael, but completely disregarding this fact, makes both Carly and Michael unscrupulous low-lives. Plus, Michael is a Q, not a Corinthos….everytime he refers to Sonny as, “my Dad”, I cringe. Michael should honor his real name by using it; considering he is ELQ. ….sort of hypocritical, I’d… Read more »
What I think will be nice is it true starts to remember things and his feelings for Kim starts to surface. Jason and Sam reunite. Franco and Elizabeth get their happy ending and it turns out that Franco is not as bad as he thought he was. I haven’t hopes for Nelle Michael deserves better so I either hope that the earthquake makes her get out all her animosity so they could be together or she has the baby her story line ends Michael and Kiki or someone worthy of him praise the baby and he has someone who he… Read more »
* if Drew starts to remember things
* I had high hopes for Michael and Nelle
I am so with you. Drew and Kim. Jason and Sam. Michael and Kiki raising Michaels baby ( nelle dies). Ava and Griffin find happiness along with Liz and Franco.
Hi, Tephanie,
I have this feeling that Harvey pushed Drew….or grabbed Franco and as he swung around, Drew accidentally went flying down the stairs.
Young Bobby had the look of terror in his eyes as he saw Harvey’s BIG feet descending the stairs. His little face looked haunted to me…..he saw Harvey as the giant monster with two heads. I think Franco blocked the most significant part of what truly happened.
Just a thought.
I would love me more Jason! ❤️ Nelle is a horrible actress. I can do without her. Story line is awful. All the rest go for it!!!!!
@Celia…. Hi,Sweets…your thought makes more sense than the quake
hands down.
Well…it would been more exciting had they killed off half the cast…i would had tuned back fr that!!!!!!!….i heard Carly causes Nelle to miscarry…Micheal breaks off ties with his mom and becomes a cue.then asks Nelle to marry him-could just be a rumor that i started-lol
So what happend to the story where Laura, Lucy and i think Felicia were going into business together…would love to see Laura go into business together…maybe that Jim guy could become obsessed with Laura?-there is possible stories for her!!!!
I like that idea of Jim obssessed with Laura
Laura is married to Doc isn’t she?
Laura and Lucy were supposed to open a Deception Spa back when RC was head writer. Supposedly budget cuts precluded creating new sets at that time, so it was forgotten and both Genie and Lynn (both recurring then) left for a while.
Sounds good! Greg Evigan could do a good job stalking Laura!
How come when there’s a character named Jim they stick him in a construction trailer….youtube Jimmy-Lee Holt c1983
Becomes a Q…also heard Nelle miscarries then kidnaps Maxi to take her baby and pass it off as Micheals
and is Jim really Franco’s dad?
Good one, Jimmy!!!! Leave it to Nelle to do something so despicable.
Hi, Jimmy,
I don’t know if you remember my saying that I had a hard time believing Scotty to be Franco’s father?….he was too evasive when Franco started asking him questions.
I do not mean I’m right, of course, but something does not jive…..especially if Heather is involved.
So, my friend….you do make a good point. Harvey may, very well, turn out to be Franco’s father. Would Harvey hurt him?
I hope the writers come up with a better story line in that. It’s always a predictable storyline since they use it so frequently. This time if she has a miscarriage I hope for once they’ll do it in more realistic way. Michael has been through enough and he doesn’t deserve any more disappointment. I wish he can meet someone will take his breath away and one who will feel the same way without any games. Personally is probably his best interest that she has a miscarriage or I complicated pregnancy where she’s no longer part of his life. I… Read more »
I had enough of this Franco pushing Drew down the stairs story. It has been given more air time than it deserves — first off Franco should have trusted Elizabeth and just told her what he feared instead of assuming she would just walk out on him if she found out. His keeping it a secret just makes him look pathetic and insecure. But the real waste of time is we all know in the end the writers will make Franco innocent, so why did we have to watch months of angst to find out, it was big bad Harvey… Read more »
I agree. I don’t have DVR anymore. So I just leave the room when those pointless scenes start.
Absolutely, Mary, but that is but a pipe dream, and we both know it….along with any hopes that Ava, Julian, Alexis, Nina, Jordan, Aunt Stella, Peter or Nurse Amy will be going away any time soon! I suppose we should thank our lucky stars that Laura is safely stashed away in Paris with Spencer or the evil showrunners may have decided to make this beloved character the big casualty of this storyline! Given the current state of this soap, we must thank God for small favors….
Honestly, Mary! Who didn’t push their younger sibling down the stairs when they were three years old? Or lock them in a toy box? (shudder!). I mean, can they think of something more sinister with which to taunt Franco? Franco is New Coke Light, and maybe Kevin can teach him a thing or two about brilliant psychosis 101 with tales of his brother Ryan, Coke Original. And yes, I know, I know, Franco didn’t really do those normal things siblings do to each other, he was merely trying to protect Andrew from big, bad Harvey. And Shay, what a waste… Read more »
Oh, my goodness, Mary…..I hadn’t even read this far before I wrote my comment, the other day. I see that you had the same thought….you, also, think that Jim Harvey pushed Drew down the stairs….may have been accidentally, but he probably blamed it on Franco to his ‘mother’. Bessie, or is it Betsy?, LOL, probably scolded and punished Franco and this is why he grew up thinking he pushed Drew. Obviously, he had blocked it out until traumatic, recent events. I, also, think Betsy? sent Drew away to keep him safe from Franco….or, so she thought. Regardless, Mary, I’m with… Read more »
I must say… I was taken.. with the stairway scene between Franco and Drew. it was jarring as Franco… AND /or Drew… “clung” to each other with nary a word.. yet it was a timeless scene. ALAS already 4 things about the “earthquake” 1. Rebecca Herbst RUNG IT HOME. it was so romantic as she tells Kevin… she will stay @the church… because Franco will get their. ( I was in tears ) I LOVE MY LIZ. it was the one tender scene outside of the quake. perhaps that meant any thing ? she’s so beautiful. 2. another touching moment…… Read more »
Yes, Mary SF; agree. It’s obvious that Harvey was abusive…probably terrorized both boys and made some type of threat to Franco’s mother; send Drew away. As for Bobby/Franco? He subliminally knew he was close to his “brother” when they were little which is why he’s held on to the rabbit’s foot for all these years and why he painted the picture of the two of them…which is also why he probably thought he was a Quartermaine (thought he was Jason’s twin). And now…Betsy’s had to twist the tale again so that the truth about Harvey’s abuse doesn’t come out. But…is… Read more »
it’s very interesting… HOW Drew and Jason are so sure about ONE thing. and 1 thing only . ok that’s stretching but nonetheless… when it comes to Franco….. they just “hate’ him.. and want to avenge the people he’s hurt , so much so, that Jason would have left Franco their stuck at the construction site, had it not been for Sam… saying it’s better if he’s alive and telling him that he should be reminded daily of all the atrocitites that he wrought. even franco tried to explain again.. how he had this tumor and didn’t know what he… Read more »
oh you’re a big ol’ softie, Patrick! xo 😉
Gotta say, I can’t bear to watch the show anymore. GH is so harsh and angry. The show really needs a softening. I’m a 35+ year watcher and I don’t keep it on. DOOL is the better show.
I don’t watch either–not since Genie’s last appearance–and I’ve watched since first episode of GH lo those many years ago! Can’t bear it without Genie.
An earthquake? Seriously? That is the only way they can bring Sam and Jason together? SMH!! I love watching Carly and Nelle fight it out. They have huge chemistry together. The show has had moments of late but they really need to build more stories. Right now, we have gimmicks and that can’t last forever. Kudos for a great episode on Friday.
Agreed, Mateo…Carly and Nelle can really put on ‘them’ gloves…enjoy every minute of their sparring, albeit, it is kind of disturbing how Carly digs into pregnant Nelle—-the baby does feel stress.
For someone who professes to love her own ( her unborn grandchild), Carly is, surely, not following her own credo.
It’s going to a ‘couples’ thing.. BORING! I’d assume most all know what will happen before it happens. GH, really needs to pick up its’ game.. Anyways.. I can always FF everything Robot Man Jason, so it’s doable.. Even when action is attempted by an earthquake the suspense, drama is still missing.. I would like to have moments of WOW!! HOLY CRAP!! WHOA!! NO WAY! WOW!!! Jason and Sam are going to go back in time with memories. Drew and Kim are going to go back in time with memories Franco and Jim are going to go back in time… Read more »
ya mean Joss and Oscar? 😉 (I was like…”who is Josh and Oliver?”)
Oiiver, as in Twist?
I love Joss and Oscar.
Lulu is an obnoxious twit who looks ridiculous no matter what she does. She even had me in hysterics when she tried to balance herself during the earth quake.
Harry!!! I read your Lulu Hoop comment and it was hilarious! I’m actually cracking up now; getting a visual as I type! Oscar is a cutie! (Loved the original Oscar; he would definitely be my type…was my type..when I was that age. Oh, who am I kidding!!! He’s still my type! Just in a adult version!) Alak and alas he was called to other TV endeavors. But this Oscar is the essence of innocence. He’s a cutie. It’ll be interesting to see him grow up. Jocelyn? I like her but not too keen on her tude toward Julian! Liked it… Read more »
Rebecca, I agree with you again!!! I adore Oscar–he seems completely natural and in his element as the awkward, sweet teen. I also adore Joss.
You are right, Lulu is an insipid pain in the a$$-as a reporter (actually, in any way, shape, or form). The actress plays her terribly.
hi dmr..
Lulu is a housewife, she has no degrees in journalism, no resume as a journalist, Lulu is totally not qualified to be a journalist for a major magazine or paper..
Lulu is not even qualified to write recipe reviews lol
Journalist cary degrees some have 1, most have 2 or 3 ..
All of the above storylines have been moving at a snail’s pace since the two Jasons reveal. Not even an earthquake can shake things up in good ‘ol Port Chuck.
i agee
LOL agree
Well, I for one am glad this cliffhanger was predicated upon the wrath of Mother Nature rather than predicated upon a rain of bullets. I actually did not see this coming so good on them. And now for yet another hilarious, albeit unintentionally, hilarious moment–the sight of four foot Lulu in six inch heels wavering around as if she were doing the hula hoop. I replayed that moment about three more times and just when I was done with the hilarity ensuing, the previews come on and there she is again–Lulu, long hair flying in a swirl around her trying… Read more »
Hahahaha
Oh, my gosh….I can’t…Harry, cut it out !!
Ps…forgot to add: TOO FUNNY for words!! Lulu Hoop?!?!?!?!
Celia, am I the only one who thought the sight of Lulu doing the invisible Hula Hoop was hysterical?
Something must be wrong with me.
Harry, I did respond to Lulu Hoop….I fon’t see the post. I guess it was not up to par?
I see it, Celia. I was really afraid I was getting loopy. I know, I know–what do I mean getting?
Ditto for me, CeeCee! I nearly have more replies to Harry rejected than even those to you, and that is saying so much! I guess you both share a knack for bringing out the saucy and naughty in me….
Harry and Shay, Before I fall asleep, which will be ‘kinda’ hard after the ‘Mother Fracker’-one-two-punch in my funny-bone…….I’d like to say: yes, Shay, many of my posts to Harry, and to you, don’t make it…..I need to tamp my cheekiness…. Anyway, I just finished watching today’s episode—-didn’tn I say that Harvey is afraid of what Franco might be remembering? So, what does he do? He is going around trying to not only discredit Franco, but also trying to turn Drew, and anyone who will lend him an ear, against him. He pushed Drew— Voila’……so transparent. I must say that… Read more »
Ps. Harry and Shay,
I forgot to give praise where it’s due….I may be bored here and there, but Max Gail deserves an award for demonstrating what acting is all about…..so natural….the fluidity of his movements; the dismayed look on his face, searching his confused mind for the next word, pulled me in……I am so taken by him, I can’t get enough. I appreciate him now, more than his role on BM, forty or so years ago.
I do hope he hangs around…..I’m in love!!
The ultimate…Jason with Sam and Drew with Kim. Memories restored. Nelle gets what she deserves, baby survives. Julian and Alexis reunited. Elizabeth fogives Franco. Carly escapes Nelle’s gaslighting attempts. Franco remembers…he ‘s not to blame. Curtis saves Charles street. Griffin and Ava in love. Nicholas returns!
That would be a perfect ending to all the turmoil!
Every time we hit a dull patch, something blows up, gets derailed, burns, quakes, etc. It wouldn’t be a respectable soap otherwise. The JaSam thing is way too obvious, even for their fans. But I’d like to see Drew and Oscar bond more, so what the heck. Shake, rattle, and roll.
Poor little Oscar….Soaphound, did you hear his pubescent voice break?–little squeak came out as he was pounding freezer door, screaming for help. Awwww….
I knew you’d catch that, Celia. How adorable is Oscar? I will say that a diehard romance with 15-year-olds makes me uncomfortable but who could resist puppy love? One more thing– Drew will be rescuing Carly’s daughter tomorrow and by next week, she’ll stab him in the back AGAIN by touting her JaSam obsession. Guaranteed!
So cute, right, Soaphound? Yes, they are too young….sadly, not these days…not fifteen years ago either. My first kiss was at sixteen….which made me an old maid, LOL……everyone my age was an expert at kissing and beyond.
I just hope TPTB keep things innocent between these two.
Haha…I heard Oscar’s squeak, too, Soaphound. Too cute. Wonder if HE noticed! Hope he wasn’t embarassed! But, we’re watching him grow up right before our eyes! Soon his voice will be booming!
Would like to see Michael once and for all getting rid of Nelle. Something to the effect there is no child. Nicholas return with Laura and Lucky. Jason and Sam together and Drew with Oscar’s mom.
An earthquake? In upstate New York?
Remember those geological maps that Curtis was looking at? Look up all the recent earthquakes happening in states where they were not previously common, and there’s one common denominator in those states – the toxic and destructive process of “fracking” natural gas.
In reality, this process has been banned in NY by the governor for exactly this reason, but Jim Harvey’s the type of sleazeball who would probably think he could get around the law and do it anyway.
WOW!! For once, Satan, TPTB are using true facts—I agree with everything you wrote….
As a resident of NY, I am very familiar with your summation.
Oh, just wait for the explanation, Jacob….I had it figured out before the whole lot shakin’ even started!
I don’t like Nell at all, she’s a Conniver, liar manipulator, takes everybody should feel sorry for her. Telling her sob story to Monica, to gain sympathy and to make herself out to be an angel when she’s not. I don’t like her character, she’s such a liar she wouldn’t know the truth if it bit her. She deserves to be alone! Michael she is the Michael should open up his eyes she don’t deserve any Chances she blew that. You have to watch your back with her. Michael should just support the baby and forget about her. And I… Read more »
I did a voice text some words are not correct you could figure out what I’m trying to say.
Elizabeth and Jason should be together for Jake, rekindle their love.
Oh please. Elizabeth has changed her mind so many times and been with almost everyone in PC. She definitely does not need to go back with Jason. Let her stay with someone and be happy.
I thought it was going to be Anna and Finn with the obvious attraction between these two but, now I’m getting into the openness Alexis and Finn have. They both hold their own with the quirks and antics. So much fun watching these brilliant actors like Lucille Ball and husband. Keep these two together, lets watch as they fall in love with each other. It’s over for Julian. Can’t forget he tried to kill her and drove her to the shell of the strong woman she is. She needs laughter.
THANK YOU, Sylvia!!!! I, like you, thought it was going to be (and it still might be), Anna and Finn. And I still like them together. But, I seriously like Alexis and Finn together, too. They have a great rapport and I’ve said the same as you…quirks…they’re both sarcastic, witty, clever…professional and neurotic! Who could ask for anything more! 😉 Seriously, I’m not sure I see them visually together like I see Anna/Finn…Alexis/Julian…Kim/Julian…but they are so fun to watch that I like em! (cute analogy: Lucille Ball and husband.) Also like Anna with Andre. They had a great rapport from… Read more »
I whole heartedly agree… this is the first time.. I’ve seen any bantor between , for and with another person… that works. imagine that Alexis and Finn. both of them are coming from a place that they can move on from . hey, nice try with Anna… wasn’t meant to be… hey, nice try with Julian… wasn’t meant to be… Alexis and Finn are finding common ground… that hasn’t happened for either of them in so long. I welcome this can we go – Julian and Kim can we go – Anna and Andre ? wonder how long he’s back… Read more »
I said as much, as well, Sylvia. Love Alexis’ and Finn’s easy banter—not so much drama.
No way, no how, CeeCeeGirl! I’ve never observed what you term “easy banter” with those two as much as incessant chatter, mainly on the part of Alexis, per usual, since she has to talk everything to death! Now when Anna and Finn had their epic Christmas argument, that was banter! Besides, when emotions are so deeply felt, they often are difficult to express, even for the most articulate and poised of people…it’s the silent looks between Anna and Finn that speak volumes for me….and they are screaming out to each other!!! As for those pushing a pairing between Anna and… Read more »
@Hi, Shaybelle, LOL….great post!!!!… you are fantastique at proving your point, amica mia….but, I am very stubborn!! Yes, Anna IS the lady, isn’t she? All prim and proper….exactly my point. Poor Finn should not be her puppy; and that’s what the situation appears to be forvme. Perhaps, I am wrong… If this were going on a year or so ago, my judgment of Alexis would have been clouded; because when we are iffy about a character, everything he/ she does gives us indigestion, yes? Since her break-up with Julian, I have changed my tune where Alexis is concerned. I do… Read more »
Thank you, CeeCeeGirl! Although we are both quite passionate in our opposing positions on this particular subject, we still agree on many points….other than our vastly differing amounts of goodwill for Alexis, of course! The utter disdain train left the station for me a long, long time ago and knows no bounds for this exasperatingly obtuse character…it only gains more steam with each passing example of her poor life choices! And yes, the “intractable reputation” as you so superbly put it, plays a great part in my less than generous view of this emotional mess of a woman…hence whilst it’s… Read more »
why are we subjected to the continuous inaccurate blather about Alexis’s “itch?” She’s a woman. She had sex with the man she loved. Get over it!
Great ending! I was totally unprepared for that! Great classic GH “earthshattering” happening! First; I think whatever Jim Harvey is working on below ground caused the quake. Second: I think Jim Harvey was physically abusive to the boys (which I mentioned on another thread, as well) and in reality Franco was Drew’s protector ( and perhaps vice versa). Poor Franco; find out soon! Third: Kim’s hiding a lot…not sure how/why but she has something to do or knows more than she’s saying about Drew’s history/background. Fourth: Michael’s not going to perish. Morgan is “presumed” dead and Mike has alzheimers. No… Read more »
between “Curtis” and “Michael” – I don’t know which of thee “principal” cast acted any more or less. seeing as they are all still living… Why Curtis seemed just fine… ready to look for Aunt Stella and TJ… then he’s hobbling in to GH carried by Jordan. which was laughable at best.. seeing as all the cast is just fine and dandy. and we had to see Curtis with bandaged leg oy I was embarrassed for the actor. Michael … GOD how he should die. as he come to with Sonny … wouldn’t leave his side. he forgot it was… Read more »
LOL! Patrick…”he should die…” hahahaha…you’re bad! I don’t mind, Michael. He’s just been written so asexually it’s pathetic. He goes out with women but I don’t think we’ve ever even seen him “make out.” “At this point, I think it’d be awkward! He needs a sex life!!!!!! Yes, I thought the same thing, too, when Curits hobbled along. Wouldn’t he have been protected in the jail cell. Aren’t those built with concrete or something. And, he’s built like steel so I would think he’d be able to “steel” himself against falling or twisting his leg. And how is it no… Read more »
oops… I don’t mind Michael (no comma, which changes the meaning)
At this point and for as long as I have watching I have learned not to “2nd guess” the writers!!! So at this in time ANYTHING is possible!!!
Don’t know about crazy nelle and Micheal I don’t want her to ruin. Micheal life and that will be what happen cause she is really unstable and I believe she actually kill her last boyfriend he need to get his baby and him and his family was her or him together and I mean both families and send Nell to get some help
I hope jasam get together I love them and I’m sick of dream. I also hope we get Julexis back together…. Drew can get with Kim and Julexis and jasam can be together
Earthquake, REALLLLLLLLY…..was that the best scenario imaginable!!!! Sam & Danny will be perfectly fine…since their with Jason, hero / savior extraordinaire. Drip/ drab boring Drew will keep Kim safe while they search & find their son…Quick thinking on Oscar’s part pulling Joss to safety underneath the desk. Nelle & Carly that should be a doozy…. This may be Franco’s last chance to get the truth out of Jim, he should use his time wisely, instead of whining nonstop…it’s gotten old.

It’s not California can’t be earthquake. May be a treasure . Remember when Felecia came to town with Being a princess? They could start another Oak Island.
Oh, yes, it can definitely be an earthquake in NY, Donna….I know it does not sound feasible, but it is factual.
However, as I originally said….Methinks Harvey ‘awakened’ whatever was sleeping down there. I said a gold mine….someone else said oil—oil sounds better….this guy has monetary reasons for his big interest in Charles St…..he’s a mercenary!!
There was another earthquake in PC back in 1991. This was during Gloria Monty’s short second stint as EP. She hated some of the sets that were in use at the time (namely the Brownstone and Robert’s office) and used the quake to get rid of them.
A very pregnant Felicia was trapped on the Brownstone stairs when the shaking began.
What happened to comment made that Nelle could be ninas long lost child (daughter) her mother said died when she was in coma. Wasn’t that mentioned as a who is nell possibilitie now she’s a wicked person who is she related to still a mystery or did I miss a showo. Thought she was vengeful for short time because of kidney and carly? Thank you if you can answer.Faithful viewer for 35 years.
I think the idea to explore a possible grown child for Nina went away when they killed off Silas.
With Nathan gone and a recurring Valentin getting his hands dirty again, I wouldn’t be surprised if Stafford is out by year’s end
You may be right, Steve….I will, nonetheless, keep hoping….
I mean, look at Nina and Kiki. They should be mother and daughter…both tall, lanky and slim….not so Ava!!
Yeah, one could argue that Kiki ‘leans’ towards her father….but, she’s a girl with a female body….usually much like one’s mother….
I am stubborn, LOL.
Oh, Steve, how I hope you are correct on that account! It’s been too long in coming…..
Naaaaa…I don’t see Michelle Stafford out at all. She’s central to Valentin, she’s close to Maxi, to Charlotte; she runs Crimson. I like Nina!
Yeah, what happened, is right, PAT. I was hoping Kiki and Nelle would be twins.
it bothers me… that Frank , Shelley, Chris… are not taking the time… to feature, and, showcase, a mega watt talent… like… Michelle Stafford all the spotlight… going to the menfolk… of “his” favor leaves little else. Sonny / Jason / drew / Michael / Finn / Franco I wish .. they WOULD flesh out Nina… give her a rebirth… I MISS her scenes with Charlotte. after she got married last new years eve… over a year now. that was an opportune time to give us Michelle Stafford. you’d almost think… w/ Frank Valentini agenda… he used the “less is… Read more »
@Patrick. Yes, my friend….it bothers me, as well, more than I can say. It’s time Nina had her own story. ….showcase Michelle’s talent. She is one of the best on daytime and beyond, regardless of what is said about her. She can bring it, prove her mettle, given the proper and pertinent story. It is hard, for some, to dismiss Nina’s past behavior—not so hard for myself—she slept for twenty years; was betrayed by her mother and husband; lost her baby in the most animalistic, unnatural and traumatic way possible…..as far as she knows, literally ripped from her body When… Read more »
@Patrick.
PS, Patrick,
I think that in her ‘disordered’ brain, Nina, subconsciously, did to Ava what was done to her. Her actions were twofold: her baby ( or babies) was torn from her belly by her mother…… and, Ava stole her husband. This was Nina’s vindication.
What Nina did to Ava was an unimaginable and inhuman thing to do….but, in her twisted mind, it was an eye for an eye. Justice was done.
Honestly, CeeCee, I wouldn’t wish Nutty Nina as a mother on anyone, no matter how devious and downlow their behavior!…Port Charles is already chockful of lousy maternal figures….Carly, Alexis, Ava….why add another to the mix????
I want Lucky and Nicholas to come back. Laura to have a great storyline. Nell to be punished. Sam back with Jason and Drew with Kim. Sabrina comes back but as her twin
You had me until the last one, Linda!
Yes to all of it.
10 characters are mentioned ^^^ Sam and Jason – @the Q Manse. bwah bwah bwah…. ver klempt the goose has laid the golden egg. and it’s just Sam. can’t wait till Jason closes his eye Drew and Kim : bond over their MIA son. : this is the gold. this is the TIME : TO MOVE ON. @GH @Frank and Shelley and Chris. MOVE THIS SHOW move this show away from the dullard Corinthos’ . can you write that ? one of the dullest times… because @GH has bottom dwelled enough. over Carly. NOW .. she’s hysterical… and it’s Nelle.… Read more »
I think Franco’s main concern is that he’s not dangerous by nature. He wants to make sure that he’d never hurt Liz’s boys like he’s been brainwashed to think he hurt Drew. He’s haunted by that possibility and that’s why he’s also afraid to tell/marry Liz. He’s afraid she’ll leave him for fear of her boys safety…and he’s afraid that he could. He needs peace of mind. Hope he FINALLY gets it. Although, and I LOVE Franco, not sure if he does find peace of mind what they’ll do with his character. He’ll need a new story/function once his demons… Read more »
Carly has become more and more hysterical over the years-boring and tiresome.
So right, dmr. I would also add “vertically challenged” to the list. Carly can’t even seem to stand up anymore without hanging on Jason to keep her upright.
LOL!!!! Soaphound; you’re on a roll!!! “Vertically challenged…” hahahhaha!!!
Not excited for this latest disaster. The kids in the bar are day players, and Joss and Oscar are not important to me. I’m so sick of this non triangle between Jason, Sam and Drew. Jason and Sam as a couple are like watching paint dry. Just leave her with Drew and let Jason move on. I only care what happens to Liz, Anna, and the Quartermaines during this story.
Last week was devoted to the teen scene and the dance. I’m in my late 30’s, I don’t care to see “Carrie” played out on General Hospital.
@dmr….Especially without an angelic teenaged William Katt-type in the mix! That whole dance scene was a total dud!!! So much build up for what seemed a complete non-event….kind of like this earthquake that didn’t even manage to pick off a few unnecessary characters in the bargain! I definitely feel cheated!
Shay, a total non-event, a total DUD! A lot of hype, much like their 14,000th episode. The earthquake would have been a great way to oust some of the recurring, unnecessary characters out of Port Charles (too many to name).
Tell me about it, dmr! I’m still trying to figure out the whole point of this event, other than to finally get Sam and Jason back together…I guess that alone was worth the price of admission, but I still think all the rest was just much ado about nothing and the waste of a perfectly yummy dress ala Joss!…It would have been a lot more exciting if there had been some dramatic exits for a number of characters who are just begging to be killed and put out of their misery!
Jason & Sam ( Steve & Kelly) should have the family they have wanted since 2005 through 2012. They should have love they bought vow to have when they were married and the family they wanted to have together. They have an amazing chemistry together. I think Alexis should go back to Jerome and remarried him . Sam should forgive her father and they should become a close net family better than the Quartemain repectful. Andrew find his place with Kim and his son let Jason adopt Emily as his own.
I agree, Rosa. I’m getting really annoyed at the attitude that Sam and Molly have toward Julian, especially since they both love Sonny and Molly has no problem with her criminal father, Rick, and all he’s done not only to others but also to Alexis. I guess Molly forgot that dear old dad slept with her sister (Sam) and betrayed Alexis WHILE she had lung cancer! And Kiki? What did Julian do to HER? He stayed by her side while Ava was in the hospital… The “Jeromes” really need a bit of family unity… But, no, Jason should NOT adopt… Read more »
No more musical parents. Jason needs to find someone else. Sam has made her decision. Michael needs to let Nelle go. She won’t have the baby. Morgan sighting will cause her to miscarry. Laura please find Lucky and Nick. There’s your storyline.
Sam Jason need to go back togather drew needs to remember Oscar mother,Micheal an Neil to pair up.an Carly needs except neil
This earthquake feels like the writing equivalent of “look over there — what’s that?” in the hopes we’ll suddenly forget how boring the show is and that Genie Francis is gone.
The show is dreadfully boring.
Oh, my, Saints, dmr….the most idiotic words out of Sam’s mouth to Jason?…” ….that’s because I never panicked when I was with you….”. What was Jason like before he ‘died’ and disappeared?? Did he part the Red Sea, or something? Did he heal the sick, and raise the dead? I’d be terrified being married to him….my back and those of my kids’ would be a constant target. Where’s the safety being married to the mob? All Sam or Jason had to do was grab one of those ‘tubes’ swaying about on the floor and have Jason grab the other end… Read more »
Touche’, Alan!
I like thing the way are now why change let sam with drew cause he is a save guy he won’t put his family in danger like jason does he doesn’t care about the safety of the his own son now there a little girl drew daughter think about so sam and drew are better the whole jason /sam story is old new don’t you thing. and be
Everything above but no Nelle
What difference does it make. All the soaps do anymore is reunite the same couples day after day. There is no longer and suspense or surprises on soaps. Now it’s like watching a rerun day after day so predicting what’s coming next is as predictable as the sun rising. Of course Sam will return to Jason and Franco will suddenly remember the most uninteresting storyline yet. Who cares what he did as a small boy. The boring storyline of the improvements being made will have an ending. Blah, blah, blah. Tunes in to see the rerun of past shows.
I would like to see Nell go down evil should not prevail. Get Jason another woman. Straighten out Alexis let the memory of Julian go. Bring Laura back and somehow let something happen where she can be the mayor. Please let the new guy who know Franco go down and out. Let them find out about Peter.
If the show were going to take that approach that evil should not prevail then Sonny and Carly would have to pay for their numerous crimes…
Hi, Judith,
Where there is good, there must be evil and vice versa. It would, otherwise, not be a soap, but a Utopian world.
Of course GH will get Jason and Sam back together, they have to so they can continue telling the same boring stories they’ve been telling for years. I quit watching GH when Steve Burton return and I will never watch it again. Billy Miller was great as Jason but when the executive producer left Steve Burton claimed that he wanted to spend more time with his family so he left but then he immediately turned around and took a job on Y&R to follow her. Then when he left that show he decided he wanted to come back to GH… Read more »
Totally Agree. These forced pairings are so contrived. Why not play out organically what is already happening. Drew and Sam seem to be be genuinely in love – see where it goes. Let Jason reinvent himself (away from Carly and Sonny). Otherwise, reunited w/ Sam, it is back to rinse repeat. Keep Franco and Liz together. Put Kim w/ Julian.

THESE – numbers – do reflect ….
1. the Olympics
2. a school shooting
alas, will we all rebound
I want that GH FEELS the wrath… know what they are doing…
I beg to differ about the first one, Patrick…These past Winter Olympics totally tanked in the ratings, as in an historical low…they weren’t drawing people away from their lunchbreaks, let alone soap operas! I know this was the first time in my life I didn’t watch a single second of them because of the mix of highly obnoxious athletes and uncalled for politics. Oh, well….just another viewing institution to add to the must miss list along with most professional sports and Hollywood award shows, to name just a few. Seems GH is not the only one feeling “the wrath” these… Read more »
@Shay/Patrick.
Hey, guys,
I watched neither THE OLYMPICS, nor THE OSCARS…the latter? Haven’t watched two years in a row…ce sont tres unilateral—pas divertissant, mon amies.
Same old, same old….to top it all off? Praising the half sister of a murderous dictator who only attended to prove a point with her serene, angelic face. What a tactic. No one with the sense God gave him/her fell for it….
@Shay – I meant to clarify
because of the school shooting… Pre-emption occurred middle of the week… and I even think part of the following Thursday.
I watched more Olympics than I thought. Mens Curling brought home GOLD.
YES
Hi, Patrick,
Should read, mes amis…”……
I think you highlight a great point, my friend….perhaps, it may be to graphic and too cruel to introduce the reality of a school shooting to the soaps, but it could happen behind the scenes….without the rif-raf and the destruction.
More kids should be visible…..it would exemplify today’s world and its hardh reality, if done with sensitivity and honest truth.
@Patrick….Curling seemed to be the sleeper hit of these latest olympics…go figure! (And I don’t mean skating….normally, that event is a can’t miss for me, but I just cannnot seem to get into this current generation of ice stars…and that OTT commentary that been going on these past few years by Johnny and Tara makes me want to hurl…don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a good snarking session as much as the next person, but not whilst someone is pouring out their heart and soul in a performance that has taken decades of preparation…it’s just out of place…better for a… Read more »
LOL, AJ Beck—- and here I thought I was getting a treat if Sam and Jason got together.
I was not watching GH at the time. I only know Sam with Drew, which not only put me to sleep, but also, created nightmares for me, at the same time.
@CeeCee….As I stated, I’ve never missed a Winter Olympics in my life, but before the most recent one even began, I knew that I wouldn’t be watching….it all started with Lindsay Vonn’s nasty comments….and only went “downhill” from there!!! Honestly, the point of this event is to have an international festival of athletics sans the politics, and I’ve never seen a more disgusting display of anything but…our elected leaders and their families were treated deplorably, even though they were only attending in the same fashion as those who came before them…it’s a tradition, no matter who or which party is… Read more »
Yes i want Jasam back 100 its time Sam let go of thosefeelings she been hiding i want it to come out in a hot fiery passion. For them i love when jason picks up Sam
I agree with Phyllis, above, only I am not sure I want Nelle to marry Michael. I like the fight to try to get him and frustrating Carly at the same time. What a surprise this earthquake was!! I LOVED that the writers shockedus
Hi Rebecca! I admit that writer shocks are sometimes good. But aftershocks are often bad. My humor elsewhere (Harmon) might not have been appreciated, but I can tell you this with certainty: Jamesj75 has been known to play the role of Life of the Party! So please keep me on your invitation list!
Jamesj75!!!!! Alert!
The “Rebecca” you responded to (above) is not me! I have a “1” after my name. I’ve let you slide twice now…one for your Muhney and two for your Harmon. But cause I like ya…I’m giving you even MORE than three strikes! ahhahahaha
So; you’re still invited to the poetry slam!
oh…and I just noticed I have a lowercase r…the other has an uppercase!
Well, Rebecca 1–one of you is going to have to change their name to Becky.
Haha, Harry! I was here first! (I think!) And, (did you do this on purpose???) It’s rebecca with a lowercase “r”…let’s not confuse an already confusing sitch!
Will the “real” rebecca please stand up (ala To Tell The Truth) That would be I. with a “1”. Therefore the imposter should switch over to Becky. (although you have called me that so I’d wax nostalgic…)
Where is that imposter, anyway!!!??? Just kidding. Sorta. I am, kidding, Rebecca. But DO change your name. Just kidding. Again. Sorta… 😉
Hopefully Carly will help Nelle and just be quiet. Sam will find her way back to Drew her true love and Michael , well now that would be interesting if something happened to him. But he Quartermains, which Michael is would be devastated. Here’s also hoping Kim and Julian see their opportunity and take it. Please ice Jason a lgive Jason a life he is pathetic.
Jason has been pathetic for years as Sonny and Carly’s lapdog!
I would like to see Sam,and Jason get together as husband and wife,To see the real Nicholas to come back.
Would love Sam and Jason back together. Nice for Drew to have old flame back. Don’t want Michael to go.
I like all the above. I definitely wanta see Nell, finally pay for all het wrong doings. Wanta see Michael finally happy w/someone good.
I’m more concerned about the sets, lol. They better not permanently destroy the Floating Rib or Quartermaine den. First they destroy Mac’s house with the Lisa Niles fire. Then he’s replaced at the PCPD, but have him buy the Rib, which dates back to its “Jake’s” days in the 90s. Of course the name is an homage to the fine dining restaurant of the 70s where Susan Moore was hostess. Maybe Frank and the writers wrongly feel that since Julian has a bar the Rib is unnecessary. Ugh! The Q den appeared around 1990 as an alternative smaller set than… Read more »
If they were writing this realistically at all, Julian’s bar would be damaged far worse than the Floating Rib. The quake would be caused by fracking in the Charles Street neighborhood, and the damage to the sewer pipes which preceded the quake was no doubt caused by the same thing. Earthquake damage is always worst the closer you are to the epicenter, and in this case Charlie’s pub is much closer than the Floating Rib, the Q mansion, Ava’s gallery or any other set which may or may not be seen as wrecked in the quake aftermath.
@Steve….Are you perhaps a set designer??? This isn’t the first time you have offered an expert’s keen eye with your loving detail of long past gone soap locales and structures….keep them coming!
Not a set designer, but if I get bored with the writing I have to concentrate on something, lol. I also look at the sets to see if they’re architecturally possible. A few examples: – Jason’s new apartment has windows on two sides and that opening in the back corner. Unless a spiral stairway is back there, it’s impossible for a room to be there without seeing it through one of the windows on the side – How are there two elevators in the MetroCourt lobby, but only one in the restaurant? – Why would Elizabeth buy a house with… Read more »
Excellent observations, Steve!!! I guess your “hobby” is the equivalent of my sizing up the wardobes, make-up applications and plastic surgery/botox top-ups of the GH cast…not being able to discuss those here anymore is a real killer, especially some days more than others and for certain characters! But I do hear you on those architectural inconsistencies, as well! There was a time when Windemere was actually treated as the fortress on a remote island that it was purported to be…now people show up there in a split second and apparently without the benefit of a boatride! And security is not… Read more »
Add Lila’s Rose garden to what is missing. And find some budget or use ABC’s Disney locations for the other adventure sets like Felicia, Frisco, Anna, Robert, etc. sometimes frequented. Then there’s Wyndemere Castle on Spoon Isand…Beyond tired. I don’t think anythings been done since the Spencer birthday fire. Also agree with Shay…find a new “Alice.” Some people in mansions, like Monica, shouldn’t be answering their own doors. I always think this when I see Victoria answering her door on Y&R. As for the kitchen…I’d like to see a way Olivia and a cook could find a to respect and… Read more »
hi rose! I really liked your posts on the RS thread and completely agree with you! You Go girl!!
I’m with Diva and Lawerance on their comments. Yes to that!
What I want to happen is Sam realized what she has with Drew and to once and for all getting over Jason. He deserves all the love she can give him and her whole heart, not just half of it
I want for the earthquake to open up the secret world that was built and supplied with food that Nicolas fell into coming back to Port Charles and Morgan fell into during the car explosion. Their bodies werent found because they were in that secret underground chamber.
Good one, mona….I like it ! How did they survive, though. Maybe it’s an underground shelter?….with foodstuff and such?
I do not want mchael to get with that twit Nell, I can’t stand her, I want Sam and the real Jason to get back together,
Ive been watching general hospital for years and I would like to see Morgan come back and be with Kiki and Drew and kim get together so Jason and Sam together and I think Maxi should have twins and she can be with Peter and just get rid of Faison altogether and Claudette can come back and get even with Nina and get rid of Nelle she causing too much trouble with Carly can get back with Jax and Sonny can leave the show and Ava can have her daughter Avery back cuz, she suffered enough what she went through… Read more »
Anything can happen on a soap dramiatic license and all. Heck people come back from the dead. But this makes for a good storyline’ Ijust wish Nathan could have stayed on.
What a pretty name, you have, Denise…tres joli!
That’s what I say….anything and everything is possible on soaps.
I would love to see Franco and Elizabeth get married. Nelle gets what she deserves. Drew and Sam together . Carly finally figures out that it’s Nelle that’s making all the phone calls. Julian ends up with Kim
That sounds wonderful Anita.
I’d also like for Drew to get his memory back Franco to figure out what really happened Jim Harvey going to jail And yes please let’s bring Laura back
I read several of your comments. This earthquake caught me totally off guard. Didn’t know that was coming. For me personally I’m so sick of Sam that I no longer care who she ends up with. She has become a real snooze-fest for me. Nicolas won’t be back. He’s on DOOL now. I love Spencer & would love to see him return. I miss Jeanie Francis. I hope Elizabeth & Franco get their happy back. I despise Nelle and I hope she miscarries. I’m totally bored with Drew so whatever happens to him happens. Don’t care.
It is time for Michael to get married, I hope to Kill. The new Allan and Monica Quartermains. Drew, Kim pair up and Arora Media has conflict with ELQ. Jason and Sam pair up and opens an agency, bringing in Curtis. Elizabeth and Franco gets married and Elizabeth has her fourth child, a girl. They all move out of Port Charles. Opening up the door for New Head Lines, for others. General hospital is tooo crowded.
Kiki and Michael
Lulu hoop funny how about surfing lulu she looked ridiculous when the quake started why not just fall down like everyone else just being extra as usual on her part lol.that part needs to be a blooper reel
This actress just needs to go. I thought the same thing! Annoying, insipid, Lulu!
We all know Nelle is going to steal Maxies baby. That’s a given. So sick of that story line. That just shows the writers don’t know what they are doing. Can’t think beyond past shows, let’s redo them forever. If that’s what happens I’m probably done. I love gh but come on, stop making it predictable, and stop using the same old stupid storyline. We want you around forever. But please stop repeating old stories that’s so used up it’s disgusting.
The complete storyline with Jason, Sam, Liz and Drew had been screwed up for very long time . As a matter of fact, I barely watch GH, not to mention Alexis and Julian storyline, which is just as pathefic, I guest the writers Iike boring and pathetic stories . Once GH was the leading day time show to watch. Now who care!
If Ron c was still writting he would have had those predictable bullets , thank God he’s not cool can have him I ahave been afan for over 35 years and when RC was writer was the only time I tuned out, Chris van etten is doing great, there is real dialogue, the show centers around the hospital and old a ND new characters are used perfectly, GH is GH again.
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Port Charles Learns a Bomb Caused the Explosion as Lives are Forever Changed
This week’s General Hospital has reminded us all of why we love daytime drama and why GH possesses some of the finest performers in the genre.
Wednesday’s episode featured several emotionally-charged and gut-wrenching moments as loved ones find out the fate of several people in crisis, or have to deliver terrible news in the wake of the bomb explosion at the Floating Rib, which already had taken the lives of Dev (Ashton Arbab) and Dustin (Mark Lawson).
Courtesy/ABC
As we begin, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) has a passed-out Lulu (Emme Rylan) in his arms and brings her to Portia (Brook Kerr), who sends her for tests. And in true soap opera fashion, just as Lulu was presumably going to tell Dane she still loved him and wanted him back (following Dustin’s death) … he never heard what she had to say.
Laura (Genie Francis) fills in Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) that Dev did not make it, and then Liz decides to tell her son, Cameron (William Lipton) the heartbreaking news while he is recovering from his injuries. When she does, Cam is overcome and devastated as his mother holds him in her arms. Meanwhile, Carly (Laura Wright) is filling-in Trina (Sydney Mikayla) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) about Dev’s untimely death.
Later, with Laura present, Portia tells Lulu’s loved ones that she has a cerebral contusion, and that there is a a traumatic brain injury which has caused swelling on the brain. Laura and Dante look on devastated. Portia then says they have already rushed Lulu to urgent surgery.
Julian (William deVry) is with Ava (Maura West) at Wyndemere. She is attempting to hide him there, while he figures out his next step after planting the bomb. However, Jason (Steve Burton) shows up looking for Julian now that Sonny found out that a bomb caused the explosion that ravaged the Floating Rib. From that point on calls are made to ensure Sonny’s family is protected as a mob war is about to go down. Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Jason believe all roads lead back to Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober).
Courtesy/ABC
Jason leaves Wyndemere before spotting Julian; leaving a distraught Ava to come down hard on her brother … he has two choices… leave Port Charles, which she will help him do, or stay, and if he stays, she will not help him or be a part of his life. While they are discussing his next move, they learn Lulu is now in critical condition from the bomb. Ava tells Julian in no uncertain terms that everything he has done has come with a cost. Jason shows up at the Corinthos home where Sam (Kelly Monaco), who is not happy about any of this, finds out along with Carl,y that Jason believes he was the target at the Floating Rib.
Courtesy/ABC
As Liz is struggling to hold it together with Franco (Roger Howath) having brain surgery, she speaks with Scott (Kin Shriner), who did not know of his son’s tumor. She shares with Franco’s dad that Franco is worried he will wake up a very different person. Liz is told Franco is out of surgery, and is in tears over his hospital bed. She prays he will be alright and Franco wakes up!
Portia tells Nikolas (Marcus Coloma), Laura, and Dante that Lulu is out of surgery but in a coma, which Kevin (Jon Lindstrom) points out is normal in these situations. Dante goes to sit by Lulu’s bedside and begs her to wake up.
Courtesy/ABC
Then, in devastating news for Laura, Lucas (Matt Trudeau) gives her the real 411 on Lulu. He tells Laura that Lulu’s brain started swelling the minute she hit her head at the Floating Rib, and that her injury got worse the longer she was not checked out. Laura achingly realizes Lulu was so worried about Dustin that she never was immediately checked out for head trauma. Lucas lets Laura know that Lulu’s recovery could take a very long time, if she recovers at all.
Heart-tugging performances throughout the stellar episode were given by: Dominic Zamprogna, Genie Francis, William Lipton, Rebecca Herbst, and Maura West in very intense and dramatic scenes.
So, what have you thought of this week’s episodes of GH? The fate of Lulu? The performances from yesterday’s airshow? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
