Yes, please bring back Robin ASAP, we don’t the pairing of Patrick and Sam she belong with her husband Jason.

That Carlos would still be alive is about the only way Anna can be redeemed in my mind. The way it was portrayed, she murdered Carlos—so she’s not much better than Sonny (who should be in prison for life and off the show).

@nancy dillingham…..Killing Carlos was akin to putting down a rabid hound…a public service to the community! Hence, I cannot fault Anna for that lapse in her usual impeccable record of law enforcement…..not to mention that I would truly abhor the return of Carrrrrrr-LOS! It took far too long to rid Port Charles of that mangy madman as it was….please no encore appearances! Let’s just give Anna a pass on this one and hope for brighter days for this once irreproachable heroine. I have a feeling that she will redeem herself many times over under this new writing regime, and I share your desire to see her reunited with both Robert and Robin….and maybe Frisco, too! Along with the lovely Laura, they are the legacy characters I’d most love to see resurface in Port Charles, even if only possible for a brief moment. As you so succinctly put it, the time to “clean house” of all those who don’t belong on the GH canvas has indeed arrived and would be a huge boon for the show. From your lips to the “Soap God’s” ear, Ms. Dillingham!

ITA with every word, Anna killing Carlos, Anna has never killed anybody before! Sleeping with Sloane, unbelievable! Anna never used to be so loose, sleeping with everything in sight .. Eli Love, Luke, Sloane .. she used to fall in LOVE first, remember Robert? He was her first, and she was so in love with him she was never with another man until she met Duke, 7 years later, and fell in love with him. And so it went, she was loyal to Duke until he died and remained so until she fell back in love with Robert, years later. That is the Anna I loved. I don’t really recognize this Anna. The Anna I remember would move heaven and earth to get her daughter back. Robin was always her FIRST priority. Robert needs to return and snap Anna back to her old self. Until then, I’ve pretty much lost interest in GH. DAYS is my soap now, loving all the returns, especially Patch & Kayla!

Well said.

Amen Nancy.

Truth!

tony geary is gone, let it go!

Touche’ @nancy dillingham!!!!!

ICAM, that’s exactly what I was thinking when I saw that interview with Mary Beth & Stephen, this is what a Supercouple looks like. This is what the fans want to see. A love for the ages. Not – oh, they’ve moved on with other people, their love was over a LONG time ago, it was never meant to last, blah blah blah. Who wants to see that?

I didnt like neither Sloan but I could see Anna with #2 before #1. Kill him off and lets get Robert back and him and Anna can go and bring Robin home. Kim or no Kim!

One of the key elements to soaps is romance. Anna can be a strong woman and have a relationship at the same time. Though it was implied she and Duke were a couple, they really shortchanged them. There was absolutely nothing romantically portrayed for this one time great pairing. Now, I’d love to see Anna in a relationship…it’s been far too long since she’s been portrayed as the beautiful, alluring woman she is…with an equally alluring, dynamic man.

Su…romance doesn’t die out. It’s a staple of soap and even some of the nighttime shows. It’s how some shows handle it…in the case of GH, it’s just lust, not romance, foreplay or conversation. Or awkward and silly on some nighttime shows I would never watch anyway.

I sometimes wonder if maybe writers have forgotten how to write romance and talking to each other, if they ever knew. Look at all of the online dating services promising romance, and the bachelor/ette shows (UGH) for people who need help “hooking up.” And neither the old ways or new ways hold any guarantees of success.

And even you like Franco and Nina. They are growing on me because of the genuine affection and loyalty. But this relationship took a long time to play out with no instant stripping and tongues.

@Harry….As long as “you’re here, there’s nothing I fear!!!!!” Always the voice of reason in your own inimitable fashion!!!!

Rumor has it Grayson decided not to come back when he learned they were killing off Sloane. I agree with another poster…there was something very sexy about him…and with you. They had great chemistry.

Completely agree…McCouch was Hot!! While his elongated Rivera pronunciation was cheesy, he stopped exaggerating it eventually & he was so sexy. Totally looked forward to their chemistry in their scenes together. Not every pairing works where there’s that electricity & you can feel it. It was certainly there with Duke back in the day and although you could always feel the deep love & connection between them, the writers didn’t allow for that passion this time until their last scenes!! The electricity was also there with David on AMC & then finally again with Grayson! Listen, Anna doesn’t need a man in her life, but if there’s going to be one, she’s so gorgeous & badass herself, it needs to be with someone who can bring the spark! I’m obviously a huge Finola/Anna fan & ultimately what I feel most strongly about is that she’s once again made to be a Leading character, but I’d rather not see her with anyone at all than be with some ordinary run of the mill. She’s best with someone a little dangerous. Always thought Roger Howarth’s intensity would be hot with her, until they made Franco a little too out there…
I will always love Anna & Robin’s relationship; Anna & Robert’s history & deep friendship; Anna & Duke as a couple, but back in the day (that was he best!).
Ultimately, as long as Anna is on, I’m happy.
Wow, this is long. Who am I even writing to anyway? I’ve just crossed over into being Wayyyy too into my soap! #oyvey

Anna has always been gracious. She realizes Patrick and Emma have been without Robin for a very long time. She loves them and sees that they’re happy with Sam, so I think it’s realistic and reasonable that she’d approve of Sam. I do agree though that the old Anna wouldn’t have stopped looking for her daughter…or tried harder to see if she was in trouble or truly gone of her own accord.

Anna should become a lesbian Lol. The poor woman, has bad luck with men. Please Anna and Nina become lovers. That would be hot to watch.

Ron Carlivati has been fired! The real Anna is on her way home!

Howarth and Stafford are going nowhere.
They are loved, a big fan following..
They are two of the best actors/characters with GH ..

Looks like you will not be back ..

Love your point of view, boes, even if we do part company on Kathleen Gati, who portrays your not-so-beloved, Dr. O.!!!!!!

add elizabeth to the team, they need to get helena for kidnapping robin, and little jake.

Send/tweet RC a thank you..
He’s doing a great job bringing GH back,
A shame he was let go.
but- we have him, his writing until mid-october 🙂

I like Jake, I don’t care if he ever finds out. Jake is better than stonecold.
Billy Miller has the soap dream to play two characters..
Jake now Jason later.

Traci,,
Grief sex is not uncommon..
The person grieving need for closeness, affection, an outlet of emotions, whatever it is grief sex is not uncommon.
I can see Anna and Sloane hooking up, the have that certain connection.
Anna was not ruined. It happens.

Hi, Traci. You didn’t think that scene was emotional? I can understand that when a fan is so vested in a couple, no one else comes close.
We must not forget, though, that Anna and Duke had not been together for a very long time. That last minute patch-up-making-up-leaving -for- Scotland fiasco was ridiculous. I am aware the couple had the greatest of romances…but, what I witnessed was a lot of resentment and anger between them since I joined this ‘fan club’…LOL. So, from my vantage point, well, I guess from where I stand, the last couple of scenes between Duke and Anna were an after-thought…out of place, out of sync.
They did not hurt anyone…..I thought it was sweet, yet tumultuous…..passionate, yet precious.
What you are saying can actually be applied to the crypt sex between Ava and Sonny. As a Roman Catholic, that is sacred ground….. that was the most offensive scene ever on a soap for me…..the location and who was buried there…..ugh!! I still cannot come to grips with the fact that the writers went there……debauchery!!!!!!!!!
I don’t want to sound like a bible-thumper because I’m not. I could never impose my beliefs or ideals on others….just stating a fact, that’s all. I get passion, I get attraction so strong , one could lift a building. I don’t get the attraction without love….or with two people who basically hate each other. It’s one thing to fantasize, it’s another to put that perversion in writing.

Now that Anna is back, you are so right….she needs a place of her own to call home. She needs to follow her instincts until the ground beneath her feet is not wobbly anymore. I am sure she has hound herself during her absence….let’s see what she does with this newfound freedom.

Elizabeth and Sam could accept their differences (and realize how stupid they have been to compromise their character over the years over some guy (usually Jason) and sign up for the goddesses training program.) Sorry Carly, you have shown no capacity for friendship or respecting your fellow females in Port Charles so you are out. Monica and Bobbie could go for crone/ wise woman status (so long as they take the no further botox pledge). And Patrick, Nicholas and Jake(son) could be he-ram elders for women who want to have something to actually talk about after sex. Franco could sign on as court jester. Obrecht only comes out when someone wants a dominatrix for role playing fun. And Felix could step forward as someone who has something to say once he is freed from being imprisoned as everyone’s sassy gay friend.

Wow! What fantasies you have. Might I suggest the “Lost Girl” series from the beginning. Or even the old b/w Tarzan series with the Amazon(?) women tribe. But then again I’m wondering is you are having my some shock fun with us by making up your own scenario like Jimh does frequently…albeit more tame.

That’s some imagination you have there, West Virginia fan! Sounds like a Ron Carlivati fantasy come true……

Shay, love your take on Anna.
I hate what they’ve done to Alexis. I am hoping that the new writers will give her back her independence, her intelligence and her button down Oxford blouses.

Yucky display….indeed!!!! (Enough already with this “Granny Porn!”) And as you have pointed out, CeeCee, that now not only applies to the pathetically over-aged, can’t-contain-herself sex maniac—Alexis (At the Ready)—but even the youthfully-preserved Julian in those aforementioned skeevy skivvies! Who the heck is getting their vicarious jollies seeing these two so-called adults acting like hormonally-charged teens with their cases of extreme arrested development? Certainly not the two of us!! (By the way, did you notice the remarks on another GH thread by “Donna,” who made that most astute observation referring to Alexis and her ongoing immodesty??? Loved it! See? We’re not the only ones who have found her habitual “rack-flashing” to be disgusting, CeeCeeGirl…..even though we do get all the blame for being “judgmental!” LOL….) I just wish that Olivia and Julian would be paired off…their little encounter on the pier had far more sizzle than all of his sleazy sexual escapades with Ms. Davis combined! (Oh….loved Liv’s catty little comment about Alexis…..you go, girl! Hah.) At any rate, you are so correct about how—chronologically-speaking—the numbers simply don’t credibly jive when it comes to the initial hook up between these two characters, not to mention that the entire scenario beggars belief—a cheap, backseat, one-night stand between two nameless strangers decades ago that suddenly blossoms into this supposedly great romance after a one-in-a-million chance meeting years later???? Yeah, like THAT happens all the time! (Especially when said previous activity leads to an illegitimate child…..) Even for a soap opera, that’s really stretching it!

Rumor is Carlos is alive and well.

@CeeCee…Hi Sweetness…
You R right, Nancy still harbors some resentment towards Anthony Geary.
I do understand the reasoning behind her words…on many levels he should
have known better, that said….he left, he’s gone as Aria said time to let it go.
Moving on…Michelle/Nina has been nothing if not BRILLIANT these past few
weeks giving us outstanding back to back performances… Starting with lying
down by Silas’s lifeless body, holding on to his hand as she says her final
goodbye to him… Or when she’s having a one way conversation with her
lobotomized play mate at Shadybrook. When Franco tells her Madeline
was the one who killed Silas and let her take the fall for his death…
Finally coming face to face with her unrepentant mother was heart breaking,
I cried for her and with her…. Tell me your thoughts…

You are correct CeeCee. Lets move on and concentrate on who is on the show and not what anyone said or thought they said. And one again, I said bitching and I shouldnt have. People have the right to express themselves BUT it seems some will NEVER let things go and be happy. I’m Happy! Are you?

@janet.
LOL. I just had to tell you that you crack me up. I am laughing so hard right now…”…gummybear mobsters with the fire of a thousand suns.”
Look what all that fire did for ‘SUNNY’? Do you think our sunny Sonny will survive?

I agree Lauren. I loved Robert! Either Sloan sucks. Someone new would be cool. Paul is too rich and him and Anna would have zero in common! She needs a spy like boyfriend. Perhaps someone from her DVX past who she needs to reform OR what about Frisco?
