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?

But the best was the second to last scene between Elizabeth and Cameron when she told him that Franco was dead. Man, oh, man, William Lipton broke my heart. He just went for it and gave his all. So real, so raw. And, RHerbst was fabulous, the grieving, yet comforting mother. So good.

He broke my heart in that scene, and in the morgue scene(s) today.  Herbst and Lipton are fabulous at playing absolute devastation, and being convincing as mother and son. Just WOW.

Assuming Franco is really dead, what was the point of having Julian drop by Kim's place in NYC and discover that she has a baby? Julian is dead, Franco is dead, so there's a baby out there that has one of them as his father (probably Franco/Drew)...and both potential fathers are dead.  And neither has a substantial family that would have ties to the baby.  So why have the baby exist at all?

I'm willing to bet that Howarth had voiced discontent with playing Franco and possibly wanting to leave the show, so "Kim's baby" was established wit the intent to return to a recast Kim +baby "Andy" as part of an exit storyline or at the least a shift in the storyline. I could believe that Franco finding out he has a child motivates him to go be a father to the baby, breaking off his commitment to Elizabeth and her boys in order to do the "right thing." Since Howarth doesn't actually want to leave the Show but is apparently bored with Franco, giving Franco a baby is no longer necessary.

Carly/Franco’s relationship? They are pretending like she wasn’t the first one claiming that Franco was a good person and the tumor made him do it. \

Nikolas really doesn’t exist on this show anymore outside of the pairing with Ava, does he? He can’t even be onscreen to do the typical, something tragic happened to a character I’m connected to and I have to drop by.

 

Not retconned; it's being ignored.  I doubt LW cares since her character got to discuss her boyfriend's character today.

Nikolas still exists; he got to have a conversation with his mother at the hospital recently and he and Ava interacted with Elizabeth recently on Valentine's Day.

Also, I hate the "poor Jason is falsely accused of murdering Franco" pity party. I knew that it was coming but it doesn't make it any more palatable.

That's just Carly being Carly, and involving Joss whenever possible in drama because she's a bad mother. I don't think Sam can be included in the "pity party" because she only asked him if he did it, and then said be careful when he said no.

Did Kim and Franco (or Frew, or whoever he might have been at the time) sleep together? I have blocked that out for my own sanity, heh. We don't need more babies on this fakakta show.

I don't mind not seeing Jake and Aiden's reactions to Franco being dead. The actors can't handle it, and I think in a way it's more effective they're offscreen. If they show up at the funeral or whatever the show decides to do, that's enough for me. (I wonder if the kids' parents don't want to take a chance with them working. California was such a hot spot for so long.)

They did but they made it sound like Julian was the father. Which would have been even more pointless than Franco since it came up during Julian’s death week, he didn’t know he was the father, and was already leaving a young kid behind (Leo) that he already had a relationship with.

Just when I think Carly can't get any worse, she proves me wrong.  What a hateful shrew she was today, practically spitting out, with a sneer, how she "feels bad for Elizabeth BUT HOW CAN SHE BLAME YOU?!?"  followed by "I don't like to talk ill of the dead" and then trash-talking Franco and making his death all about her.  What a cow!

 

I thought the same thing. In Carly's world, the only "dead" spouses who matter are hers and/or Jason's. I also rolled my eyes at Jason saying way back when he agreed to Elizabeth having custody of Jake, and then Sam walks in and is relieved to hear that Jason didn't kill Franco because that could come between Danny and Jake. 

First of all, Lucky, not Jason, is Jake's legal father. Elizabeth was married to Lucky at the time of Jake's birth. Second, there was never a legal agreement between them because Jake was thought dead at the time Jason disappeared, and when Jake was returned he formed a relationship with Jakeson/Drew who never agreed or disagreed with a custody arrangement. So Jason's words are a retcon and he rarely sees his son.  I was genuinely surprised today that both Jason and Sam acknowledged Jake today esp. since Sam seems to have trouble remembering she has two kids, nevermind that Jason has another kid. I thought, "Ummm, does Jake even remember Danny at this point, or vice versa?" I think the last time Jason acknowledged having two sons was when Mike was losing his memory.

I remember Julian thinking he was the father, which is why I asked if Kim and [whatever his name was then] had done the deed. Not that Julian needs to be saddled with another kid. Well, he's dead, but you know what I mean.

I got used to RH's Franco, though never was a big fan.  I really like RH and I think he's a decent actor, but he's not hot to me.  Billy Miller is.  I really dislike the idea of Franco as Drew, so I hope that doesn't happen.  I don't understand why Miller would never come back?  What the heck happened BTS there?

I don't love Carly myself, I hate her in fact, but I don't mind she is being unsentimental about his death and being in ass about it. It was extremely what WTF that Carly would ever go for Franco, considering her cultish worship of all things Jason. Then he was particular gleeful when he outed her affair with Sonny at their sham wedding with the much more entertaining version of Joss present then let her think she was going to be killed by a bomb.

I'm not talking about a secret.  He mentioned "custody." which implies that he thought about having Jake live with him part-time or full-time, ultimately choosing to let Elizabeth have Jake full-time.  Jason is rarely seen talking about or spending time with Jake, so I call b.s. on the implication that he wanted Jake to be with him but decided to let Elizabeth have her way.  Jason's live-in son, Danny, commented right before JaSam broke up that his Dad was only with them as a family occasionally.

She can be unsentimental about Franco's death, without being a straight up cold bitch about Elizabeth losing her husband. She immediately dismissed the pain of a grieving wife - someone her own husband Sonny called his friend when Mike was dying - to make it all about how she can't lose Jason.  The fact that Jason's son, and Josslyn's best guy friend, are devastated by the loss of their stepdad doesn't even register as a concern for her.  That in my opinion, is inexcusable.

They really should give us 5 minutes a day of Britt and/or Leisl, just so we can have a break from all the heavy drama going on right now. I guess we will have to settle for that hilarious(ly bad) small town yokel story line about the broke naive African American couple losing their bar when a brilliant, kindly white man enters their lives as a mysterious savior. Ugh. Surely SURELY Mo cannot think he is doing good work here. ...surely?... I'm guessing the guy that came into the bar is a mob guy and wants to launder money through the bar or something?

I can't stand Sonny's story. It's embarrassing to watch. Black couple apparently can't cross the street without Sonny's help.

Two episodes in a row where Sonny is intervening and explaining to these two numb skulls how a pawnshop works and how dude Elijah was sweet talking them. Buzz off Sonny. Go back to the bridge and die for realsies, this time. I'd trade in Franco's death for Sonny's.

Also, this storyline seems to be recycled. It sounds like the revamping of the waterfront with that pedophile who was Betsy Frank's boyfriend back in the day. Can't remember his name. The businesses are being broken into and trashed, there's a guy who happens to be a developer popping in after Tan-o was broken into and offering to be a silent partner, before he likely fucks over our two clueless idiots.

There was a bit there after Drew died where the show was acting like Jason was an active parent to Scout and he was as much a father to her than his bio kids. I’m not sure how they can still claim that after having Danny say that Jason was barely around when he lived with them and they couldn’t count on him when making plans. Plus the Scout actress hasn’t been onscreen since Christmas 2019 so I think she’s now in the tier of the never seen children along with Rocco, James, and Leo.

So, I watched the Finn/Jackie/Chase/Gregory scenes, and I can only assume Jackie reveals the big secret tomorrow, busting up all the relationships, only to learn Gregory really is Chase's dad. I want Finn to really be Chase's dad (b/c that's what this entire story has been heading toward), but I don't think he actually will be. I don't know. The relationships will still be ruined (temporarily) regardless.

I don't understand why Miller would never come back?  What the heck happened BTS there?  

Whatever we think of Jason Morgan, he's at least the second-most-favored male character on GH, and that has been the case through multiple writing regimes. 

Miller had played Jason for about three years. Some fans loved his take on Jason; some did not. When Show had the opportunity to get Burton back, they elbowed Miller out of the way, broke up his pairing with Sam, and gave him a twin brother make-work assignment to burn off his contract. Admittedly, this is more than Greg Vaughan got when they were able to lure Jonathan Jackson back as Lucky, but I don't remember even the Drew fans here being riveted by the material with Kim and Oscar Nero that was most of his last year and a half on the show. 

I think Drew could be an interesting character -- anyone potentially could be -- but he wasn't in 2018-19. If Miller perceives that he was given scraps once Burton was back, I'd agree with him. So I'd understand negative feelings.

Miller got totally screwed when Burton returned. The show refused to explore anything between Drew and Jason, and Drew got stuck doing nothing. No wonder Miller left as soon as his contract was up. He was sold a bill of goods, as many of the "gets" are.

I wasn't even a Miller fan, and even I felt sorry for him when they made a whole meta thing out of how Jason wasn't "the same" anymore, in the run-up to Burton's return. The sentiments of original-Jason hardliners were being put in the mouths of characters on the show who hadn't shown a hint of feeling this way until then. That was the sound of the bus revving up.

About all that can be said is that they didn't fire him outright. They kept him around for a "mystery" (which wasn't much of a mystery; probably 2% of the viewers thought there was any chance Burton would have returned to play the non-Jason character) and then kept him around as a character of little importance for a while afterward.

That's what I think will happen as well.   When Chase learns the truth, he will still be devastated.  His brother slept with his mother the night before she married his father.  And kept it a secret for 30 yrs.  My guess is, if it plays out like this, it will destroy his relationship with Finn the most.

There were definitely a lot of BTS issues at play there because from what I remember, there were some plans that got dropped or changed. However, I don’t know how they could do a Drew story without giving him his memories back. They needed to differentiate the characters more because without his original memorials, he was just a shell when Jason was there. That was the SL the Drew/BM fans kept asking for but never got and instead they wasted their and our times with Oscar’s cancer, possibly the most boring SL I’ve ever seen until this current one with Sonny.

Pretty sure Miller was a problem behind the scenes and it wasn't just the show.  It seemed mutual to me. He was not happy.  Not that I can blame him because Kim and Oscar (this actor was the worst teen actor in years) was horrible. Oh and the memory storyline with the bar loading into Franco's brain was just horrendous as well. But at some point you gotta suck it up and do your job.

The show was better off just replacing Steve with Billy when he came back as Jason.

Yes, because Dr. O might be a psychotic criminal, but she is quite professional about (not sarcasm). When would personality differences make any sort of difference on this show? We have a show where a serial killer was hired as an art therapist and a woman with no work experience at all was hired and kept as the editor and chief of a fashion magazine. 

Whatever Heather anger towards Franco or Stephen, she is possessive of them

The pairing of Dr. O and Heather makes more sense than Liz and Franco. What Heather lacks in professionalism she make up for in being persistent.

IA. If it doesn’t directly affect someone she cares about, she doesn’t care. If we’re being honest, she only feigns interests even when it affects her loved ones. She truly only cares if it effects her directly and won’t see the hypocrisy. I wouldn’t be surprised if they had Carly going off on Liz at Franco’s memorial for accusing Jason of murdering him just a few weeks after Nina did the same thing to her and she found it completely inexcusable

Is Valentin going to offer Michael the CEO position back if he lets Nina see Wylie? I like the twist but I wish he would stop trying to save her.

While we talk about compartmentalizing thoughts, that's not how memory actually works. It makes sense that Sonny remembers how to cook because he did that a lot and it's a simple task. It doesn't make sense that he remembers the complex moves of a poker shark, something I never saw him play, but nothing of his own life.

This is why I don't buy anything with Sam in regards to Drew now.  It's all very hollow to me and not believable.  She wasn't even around him when his child was dying.  The show wanted to push that narrative so much and they did, don't try and turn around now and act like Sam is super concerned about Peter killing Drew or Scout's father or whatever.   Let her take down Peter in the name of Maxie and their sometimes friendship.

So WTF was supposed to be going on at the never-ending poker game of blah? Was the one guy cheating? Was Mike?

Did they try to beat Mike up, but being Mike, he knew Jiu Jitsu and took them down! Then he had time to iron and strap his winnings into fucking banknote wrappers before splashing them on the table for his simpleton hosts. Aaaaaagh!!!!!! This is so Goddamn dumb!

Mo staring off into space trying to read his line: Well, uh, so, the Tan-O, is, ya know, your dream.  Aaaaaagh!!!!!!!!
