General Hospital : Why I’m Not a Big Fan These Days
Warning: This is going to be a long one so go grab a platter of cheese and a bottle of wine coz you’re in for a long and bumpy ride.
Let’s start with the Sonny and Carly saga. Seriously, they have dragged this storyline long enough. I’m so sick of it. Last Friday, Carly realized it was Sonny’s birthday in the middle of making appointments for her wedding day with Jax. When she saw it on her calendar she quickly tried to reach the lady who picked Michael up for a weekend getaway with Morgan and that lady’s family. The next thing we know, Carly is at Sonny’s office with her devastated face and a gift in hand.
I’m taking a breather here, hold on a second……………..
You are telling me, Carly doesn’t have that lady’s phone number? Do you really want me to believe that she’s not able to reach them to tell them to turn around for Sonny’s birthday? Seriously? Is Carly that stupid and so out of touch to just send her kids off with someone she can’t call just in case there is an emergency or to tell them goodnight at night. She realized it right away. The car just barely left.
Now I know they’re using this as a way to get Sonny and Carly get close, to maybe make her finally see who she really wants to be with for the rest of her life. But c’mon. She’s always claiming she loves her kids and she cares about their welfare, that’s why she’s threatening Sam to quit her job if it comes down to hurting her kids because of the new host of Everyday Heroes past with Sonny. Yet she could not, for the freaking love of me, get in touch with the woman she entrusted her kids to spend with. REALLY?????
Ok, let’s say the car has left Port Charles. You know what?? I bet you if Michael was made aware that they’ve forgotten his Father’s birthday he’d make a fuss about it and demand, yes DE-MAND that they turn around and go back. Hence I’m not buying this stupid turn of events. Maybe this will bring Sonny and Carly back together but I don’t appreciate being treated like they can just dish out scenarios and we’re supposed to just eat ‘em all up knowing it’s farfetched and borderline ridiculous.
*YOGA BREATHING*………… Now, let’s deal with this Robin/Patrick/Nikolas/Emily/Craig/Alexis storyline.
Oh Emily knows Nikolas is not telling her everything. She told him she wouldn’t give up on him. Ok, that was like what? a month ago? Where did Emily go? She all of a sudden just disappeared on the face of the earth. Hello, Earth to Emily? Granted Patrick is visible these days but I haven’t seen anything of him reverting back to his womanizing ways.
The writers are scared shitless to delve into the fact that Nikolas is once again “cheating” on Emily. They could’ve dugged deeper on that story. Layers upon layers. It would’ve brought out Natasha’s(Emily) depth as an actress. Maybe another Emmy winning performance. Oh but TPTB didn’t. They put her on hiatus. Nobody knows where the heck she is. She’s going to show her face one of these days soon since Patrick discovered the secret already. How very convenient. What? they were afraid to break up their hot couples storyline? Well, they never should’ve started this unfathomable storyline in the first place.
I belive the writers thoughts of a storyline but they didn’t know how to work around it after they realized how idiotic it was that they thought of it in the first place.
So once again, instead of going into a direction that would actually makes sense to their loyal viewers, they added Alexis into the mix. Why? Who the hell knows?. She’s not in Sam’s new career move. She has yet to send her congratulatory flowers, but she’s in Nikolas/Robin storyline. She fainted at the hospital. Did she call Sam to watch Kristina? Nope, she entrusted the daughter that she protected from her mob boss father for years to a stranger, Craig. Granted she doesn’t know that it was him who bombed the Metro Court but he’s still a stranger. Her daughter Sam would drop everything off to be with her cancer-stricken mother and sister.
So why am I still watching? Well, because I’m a loyal fan. I still want Carly and Sonny back together. I hope someday Brenda comes back. I want to see Jason happy with Sam. I love Emily. I’m enjoying Lulu and boyfriends storyline, immensely. And I’m hoping that one day, they’ll get their heads out of their asses and figure out their storylines. Make ammends on how badly they’ve butchered everyone in this damn made-up town called Port Charles. There is hope. They just need to fire every one of those writers and hire ME instead.

Haha, they’ll come up with a “create your own storyline” contest! I’m with you about the Sonny & Carly saga. They have a long-winded history of dragging anything Sonny oriented out. Frankly, I’m disappointed they haven’t been sprinkling Alexis more into the mix especially since she’s Sonny’s only daughter’s mama!
As for Emily, I’m not too keen on her nor the character but ever since she and Nikolas broke up in real life things haven’t been the same. Then again, ever since Robin’s returned home - Emily isn’t the show darling!
By the way, what did you think of the Jax’s brother (you know who) revelation? I knew there was going to be a tie, it’ll probably be about sibling fueds.
Do you know who’s going to be on the nighttime GH version? I hope it’ll be Lulu and her suitors, they’re too cute.

Yeah, I’m with you on Natasha and Tyler. The spark wasn’t there anymore. Did you know Tyler is married? Yup he kept it hush hush for a while.
RE: Jax’s brother, read tomorrow’s post….LOL
From what I read months ago about the GH Nightime, it’ll revolve on the Nurses and Doctors from the hospital. Liz will probably get airtime, Robin and Emily. I’m hoping that Asian Doctor as well. I’m so terrible with names. I’m going to be fired from this blog is I don’t learn the characters’s names soon..LOL.
When I hear about a confirmation on the night version, will post something about it here.
Thanks Mare.
