Episode Discussion II: The TFGH

Culture Check: How can we discuss a character's or actor's appearance without objectifying them? How can we express likes or dislikes and still respect an individual's humanity or be mindful that a character represents a person someone else might relate to or identify with?

Yes, Carly, it's shocking—shocking!—that a car bomb exploded at your marriage of convenience to a mob hit man. Who'd've thunk it?

And Nina. Nina, Nina, Nina. You really love that abusive shit who was yelling at you about returning to his wife?

Has he adopted Leo? That was the plan, but I don't remember hearing if it ever happened.

I'm so glad I have this place to come to and say how disgusting this show is now lol. Everyone on Twitter is rooting for them to be screwing and then Sonny walks in. Like, I can't keep my food down. Why are you actively wishing for me to vomit? Fuck them all. 

And fuck Ms. Wu. Like the town doesn't do enough propping? Wishing them well. Shut up.

The only decent part was Anna and Valentin finally showing up. The entire rest and every single other character was trash. I really hate such a large portion of this cast. I'm not forgiving Chase for forgiving Millow. Can one single character be written the way I want? Is that too much to ask? Apparently so.

Are Jason and Carly in Carly's house or the metrocourt suite?  

 

I was hoping while Sony was walking around his living room he would have found a wedding invite or engagement announcement or something.

How did Sonny get past security without the guards freaking out and texting Jason immediately.

Why is it up to Nina to notify Maxie, why didn't Anna call Mac or Dante to get over there to protect Maxie.

Hopefully Sonny walks in soon so we don't have to watch anymore of Jason and Carly kissing.

eta Sonny was so obnoxious to Nina (yes she deserves it but..) she should have said, "ya Sonny's a prick so see you later".

at that moment that's where everything should have crystalized for Nina. 

honestly, I don't know. the show drops so many points - i know they were celebrating him adopting leo and that's when Olivia found out about him + Alexis but i don't know if they were gonna sign papers that night too and obviously didn't. (maybe that's where they were going with it)

Because they have security of convenience.  How did Carly disappear before the wedding to go to Jake's?  They're getting married to keep Carly safe and she runs around town willy-nilly?  Really?

I don't know why Brando didn't come out and tell Gladys that Novak's car blew up with him in it. That might give her pause the next time she pushes Brando to ask Jason for "work."

I really wanted Sonny to bust into the reception and see Jason and Carly dancing and snarl, "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?"

I like Chase but I’m upset with the writing for him, and I’m not interested in his soon-to-be romance with BLQ! Why is he apologizing to the Qs? What did he do to them? Did I miss an episode? Maybe if he had been permitted to actually be mad and had been allowed to actually exact some revenge on Millow, I could see why an “apology” was necessary but none of that happened. AFAIC, Chase didn’t do anything wrong and has no need to apologize for anything! I have no interest in him groveling to Millow or the Qs. That story ended with such a horrible whimper! Literally nothing interesting happened. If this was the plan all along - no conflict in Willow or with Millow - they may as well have ended it back in November 2020!! Chase’s paralysis was a complete waste of time. 

I don’t know about anyone else but I was largely bored today. The wedding reception was boring. I muted Michael and lots of other parts. Nothing exciting happened, and I fear nothing exciting will happen tomorrow. I may need to go back to my pre-COVID viewing habits (ie, watching clips of characters I enjoy on YT) even though I’m still WFH. Why does it seem like GH is allergic to drama?!? 

I was happy Austin walked away from Olivia. Why argue with her?! She’s beyond annoying!! Ned should leave Olivia. What kind of marriage can they have if he can’t even have an opinion on her precious son?!? Grow up, Olivia! I know her attitude is true to life - I’ve seen it - but that doesn’t make it any less annoying! 

And now Nina cares about Maxie! Jax was calling Maxie last week, and Nina was all like, “Forget Peter! Run into that burning bldg and save Mike!” 🙄

I’m one who hopes Sonny walks in on something - kissing, sex. I don’t care. I need some return on the investment I’ve given to this awful story. 

And I’m assuming Peter escapes again. I doubt they’re ready to end the baby switch at this point! I’m just over it and this show honestly. LOL!

I started the episode 30 minutes after it started airing. I got to FF a shit ton of the reception and finished watching the episode at the same time it ended. I highly recommend.

I skipped everyone blowing smoke up Carly and Jason's ass. I skipped Michael's toast because I'm pretty sure it was as interesting as he was. I skipped anything to do with Spinelli, although it looks like he and Maxie are going to be back together. I think Maxie and Austin actually work, oddly enough.

I didn't see who caught the bouquet, but I read that it was Willow, which color me shocked at this turn of event!

Sonny screaming at Nina. I'm sure we were all shocked by this turn of event. Why anyone likes or loves this guy is beyond me. But he had a point when Nina told hi she loved him. Mike is gone. 

Anna being the one who found Peter is not a good thing. She won't shoot him and put me out of my misery.

Chase/BLQ scenes were good. I'll forgive Chase for thinking that Willow was willing him to live when her tone of voice was actually urging him to go into the light.

You didn't miss anything. This all because Corinthii must be propped to the ends of the earth, and that means Michael (and by extension Willow). So Chase can't be mad. He's glad that he married Willow because she showed her commitment! Gag me. I miss the days of Morgan when he treated Michael like shit and pointed and laughed at Carly with Ava. Sue me.

Yes. Points to CH for working to make Dianne interesting but I really can't stand the character for always mob propping.

'I was dying and then I heard her voice and it gave me the strength to survive. And Willow loves me. Not the way I want her but that commitment I heard in her voice, it brought me back." Oh please Chase, she doesn't care about you, she just wants to think that she's a goo person.Willow functions at the level of a child in kindergarten. And she still need A LOT of therapy.

After Willow popping Michael and his speech, I muted the speech itself. I just couldn't with more Carly and Jason propping.

"If I see him, I'm going to shoot him on sight." DO IT Valentin. Someone do it.

That whole storyline was a waste.  Chase couldn’t even stay mad at them.  He forgave them right away.  Now, I haven’t watched my recording of the show (and I probably won’t), but from what I understand, he’s still praising Willow?  What?  Why?  That is just insane.  I bet Chase is still mad at Austin, though.  Everyone has to hate Austin.

Not looking forward to the upcoming Brook Lynn/Chase pairing.  I’m not going to be able to buy that because I don’t think that actress can do romance.  She has a permanent sneer on her face.

I also want Sonny to walk in on something.  But since this show is so allergic to drama, he probably won’t walk in in anything.  He’ll probably walk into the wrong room or something incredibly stupid.

It was so weird, knowing there are guards everywhere. No one stopped him at the gate? Nobody thought of calling Jason and Carly? Texting? Nothing? Your boss has been dead for months, his wife just married his their BFF and enforcer extraordinaire. No one told him that Jason and Carly were getting hitched.

I bet they're not even at the house. They're probably at the MC. There's no way Sonny interrupts the sex. Soap gods don't love this part of the fandom all that much, plus Carly gets to be called a bitch and a whore because that's how Sonny rolls.

I dont know, when I look on twitter, everyone is basically fast forwarding over Snarly and Jason.

If you need to prop, retcon, and through all these bells/whistles for a couple that makes your show unwatchable..maybe just maybe stop giving in to a certain actress wishes with this pile a dog feces.

And honestly with this whole Bailey ordeal, i hope BLQ keeps the baby honestly. She has taken care of the child 1000x better then Maxie has taken care of all 3 of her children combined.

Aww, Jax is just such a gentleman.  Giving the tissues to Nina, trying to steer the conversation away from why Nina didn’t call the police on Peter immediately, just being the suave charmer he is.  Ingo shut the hell up on social media so we can keep Jax intact!!  Valentin is pretty awesome as well.  How Nina went from those two to Smike is beyond me.

Oh god and MB is back to intimidating and yelling at women.  Lovely.  I mean Sonny has every right to be extremely pissed at Nina but that was uncalled for.  What a little Napoleon he is.  He can’t hold a candle to Jax, Valentin, shit even Jason is better than that.

Loving Austin.  And like everyone else has been saying, didn’t Ned legally adopt Leo?  I get Olivia’s reaction and it is understandable to have that initial reaction, but Ned is actually Leo’s father now so he has a say in Leo’s care.

Hmm, Brooklyn and Chase, were they flirting??  Chase is way too mature to be on this show, but if they do put those two together I’d be into it.

I was thinking they were at the house, but that would mean he would likely walk in on them tomorrow, and I doubt they'd do that reveal on a Tuesday.  Which means they're probably at the MC and the reveal won't happen until Friday.  Like, I can see Joss getting home to find Sonny wandering around wondering where everyone is.  Also, when I left for the church on my wedding day, there was wedding stuff lying all over the house. i know that television people get dressed at the venue but surely there would be some wedding signs around the house.

I hated the Mike storyline, but the positive was it gave us a break from sonny's disgusting ways he talks to women.

God I really was rooting for the 5 families just to clean house and take out Snarly, Jason, Millowtonin, Joss etc...I mean of course Weeping Willow catches the bouquet, which will lead to another month long wedding dedication to a couple that makes watching paint dry more entertaining.

Chase and BLQ were low key flirting and it was such a palette cleanser compared to the other crap shown. Also Josh S. Is too good for this show.

We spent 9 months in Nixon Falls and Sonny made it home in the span of about 15 minutes today. This is the pace we should always be working with, show. I expect Carly and Jason aren't home and today's scenes were misdirection, but man, I want Sonny to catch them with their pants down. Their bliss has been completely unbelievable and deserves to end in messy, humiliating shambles. And it's not just Carly and Jason who are going to be red-faced here; the entire town has preached the gospel of how perfect this union is, and it's going to take some serious acrobatics to reconcile those feelings with Sonny's return. He's been usurped in every aspect of his life and I don't see any easy way to restore the old status quo.

I highly doubt that GH is willing to go there, but honestly, this should be a moment of self-reflection for Sonny. Living the better part of a year as Mike should alter his perception of the world and how he fits into it. He was genuinely happy with a simple, normal life, so does he even really want to get right back to business as usual? That the conflict that needs to drive the next arc of this story. It's not enough that everyone else has moved on, how has Sonny himself changed and how will he choose to move forward?

So Jason tells Carly that the bomb was meant for them, and that Mrs. Wu tipped him off and he had Spinelli and Brick redirect it to the other two mob guys. 

So Spinelli is actually now murdering people? Ellie made the right choice.

I've been watching sporadically for years, so maybe I've missed things. I thought early on that Carly and Jason were sexually involved, before she got involved with Sonny. Am I misremembering that? Even if they were, it is possible that over the years that attraction waned, so getting together now is a little awkward, I suppose.

 

I know this was already answered, and I believe, many pages back, @Cheyanne11 even put it out there: they were nothing but FUCK BUDDIES. Because Jason at that time, was starting to fall for Robin and after talking with her about it, he stopped Fucking that CUJO.

I don't know how their (Robin and Jason) conversation went, but he dropped her (that would be CUJO) like a hot potato on fire that would singe his brain damaged-addlepated head. Because he wanted to be with Robin MORE, WITHOUT SEX, than boink that harridan who was planning and then went off after Tony, then AJ, etc.

Exactly. This might be an interesting thing to explore. Sonny actually admitting he enjoyed the simple life and hanging out at a badly named bar with no customers. Maybe this can be a conflict with Carly and Jason (I mean beyond their marriage): he wants out and they don't. Unfortunately I doubt the show will do that. It will all be about how Carly is a whore because she married Jason.

And because it cannot be said enough fuck you show for having Monica willingly hug Carly. FFS.

I'm guessing the way that this show usually does these things, which is to sweep under the carpet any blame or conflict that the mob person has.  Look at which an absolute squib the Chase/Willow/Michael story ended with.

It's interesting that Carly didn't blink an eye or demand that Jason tell her next time her life is in danger and he's going to kill someone about it.  Proof that she doesn't really want to run the mob, she just wants all the perks of being the Mob Queen.

Ellie definitely made the right choice.

When I was in my 20s, I attended the wedding of a good friend, but I had no intentions of trying to catch the bouquet until the bride's father took me by the hand and placed me far to the right of everyone else. The bride threw the bouquet, obviously to me, but before I could even move someone literally dove in front of me, plucked the bouquet out of the air, and slid a good 10 feet across the grass, flowers held triumphantly in the air. That experience basically solidified my feelings about bouquet-catching.

Really liked the way JPS conveyed that even though he and Nina had broken up, he was still concerned about her welfare in that scene. 

A question: What the heck was behind Sonny when he walked into his house? It looked like drapes or shades that were falling down and I thought at first that he was in the church, post explosion. 

And, now that he's returned to PC with gray hair, does that mean we'll finally have an end to Sonny's black black hair and gray beard, or was he going up the stairs to the bathroom to get his bottle of Just for Men in the last shot?

Also, fuck off Spinelli with clutching your pearls that Jason would get called in for questioning at his reception.  You're both murderers now--hope that pleases you.

I really wanted Jax to mutter "same old asshole" after Sonny walked away from him.

Anna to Peter in the previews; "Give me a reason to shoot you."  Me: He's given you eleventy million in the last couple years--what what more do you need?

Ned 100% adopted Leo, so clearly they're pretending that never happened so Olivia can act like only she has a say in that kid.

So Spinelli is actually now murdering people? Ellie made the right choice.

Spinelli was doing shady stuff as far back as Joss' christening - setting up Dante to get murdered by Sonny. This really isn't anything new.

damn straight she did. people are all like "well ellie shoulda known that this was the mob." honestly I don't know this Ellie chick, or how they got involved. but her leaving was the smartest thing she did.  like. Spinelli just was like. "oh okay." and murdered people and has no problems DJing a party.

Ellie was too good for this show. She was smart and pretty, but they made it out like she was undesirable to everyone but Spinelli of all people. I did like Spellie though because he cared about her and they had a very simple life in Portland raising Georgie together. But shut up, spineless, murdering Spinelli. Forever.

If we can just get past the part already where Carly is blissfully happy, then I might start to enjoy the storyline. I want her gutwrenchingly miserable. Otherwise, save the journey Show.

Please don't let Anna be the fuck up YET AGAIN and let Petah get away.

I would like to see Chase paired with Britt. I could see their senses of humor meshing but she would also bring some sass to his calm. Plus, they would make a super hot couple.

He gleefully plotted Dante’s murder.  Gleefully.  That’s why I’ve never liked Spinelli.

Culture Check: How can we discuss a character's or actor's appearance without objectifying them? How can we express likes or dislikes and still respect an individual's humanity or be mindful that a character represents a person someone else might relate to or identify with?
