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?

Michael and Willow are already so unrootable as a couple, giving them this (admittedly classically soap) "woman stands by man while he's sick while sharing longing looks with another man" storyline is only going to make them look worse.

Are we supposed to be caring about Sasha and Brando?

Also also no one is gonna go "Oh yah, totally, Elijah? TOTALLY embezzled money! don't hire him!" like.. come on show. a LITTLE EFFORT HERE. 

How else will Mike get one up on Elijah? It's annoying that Elijah has to be so terrible in order for Sonny to be the hero. Ugh.

Why do people care now that Dev was in the country illegally? The guy is dead. I don't think ICE would care.

This drives me nuts. If Dev were still alive, it might be worth doing something, and even then, it's pretty small potatoes. Diane would likely negotiate a fine, so using this as a way to get to Sonny seems pretty weak.

It really does make them look terrible. Part of the problem for me is that too many people have already told Michael and Willow that they're the bestest! couple! evah! They need to be on shakier ground, and Willow should be more torn between Michael and Chase, or at least not so committed to Michael so soon.

Probably not, but at least Sasha is out of the purgatory that is Michael. 

No truer words could be spoken then when Sasha, in response to Brando saying "I'm sorry" about her and Michael ending things, was "I'm not."  Somewhere in her subconscious girlfriend knows she dodged a bullet - both literally and figuratively.

I love how eveyrone is getting excited that Trina and Joss have gotten into PCU.  I always thought PCU was the lamo college, where everyone gets in, so long as they know how to spell their name.  "You get into PCU.  And you get into PCU.  And you get into PCU....."

Also suddenly PCU is has a Division 1 Volleyball team.

So where did Peter, Anna and Val go to. Yesterday, Peter said he wasn't going to given the antidote. Did they knock him out and drag him back to the basement. Or did they shrug their shoulders and said oh well.

Dante has spent more time around Willow when she was Charlotte's teacher than he has seen Willow and Michael together, and this includes the first month or so when he was living at the Q mansion with them.

Finn actually mentioned that a toxin could be the cause of Chase's numbness. If only someone could send a note with secret ink that could tell him about the secret poisoning.

As for Willow, I firmly believe that she developed some type of Stockholm Syndrome when everyone pushed her to marry Michael for Wiley's sake and went through a marriage of convenience. Now she might end in a relationship with a man you may be dying. Let's see if they reignites her domarnt feelings for Chase.

Jax is an idiot. He has been searching for a clue to find Nina. Talk to Curtis as he found Phyllis last time and he probably has her home address.

Good to know that the unchangeable essence of Sonny in all points in space and time is a smarmy, egocentric, know-it-all  douchebag. PS. I've grown to hate Phyllis too.

Again, every character on the show has to be stupid in order for the plotpoint to work. 

Gladys, the star 'witness' against Jason, was also complicit in the Dev immigration fraud. If Cyrus exposes Brando, he loses Gladys too, and no one can do that math. 

( That is, if any federal agency even cares about one dead teen) 

I'm just relieved that Wiley finally was put to bed, it's hours after the Bernardino dinner and people are still dropping in at the boathouse so Michael can talk about Willow.

I liked that Sasha put Brando on the spot for knowing about cars. She shouldn't have to say anything about it in the first place.

Anna or Valentin should make an anonymous phone call to GH to tell Finn what's going on with Chase. They are so dumbed down for this stupid story.

Wow, Sonny sucks. He couldn't care less he might have family somewhere that's desperate to find him. No, he likes the pace of Nixon Falls, so Nixon Falls it is! Typical Sonny thinking only about himself.

It seems like Phyllis has become (or maybe was always intended as) a human plot point, a character there only to advance the preposterousness of an out-there storyline.  I guess we have Jax potentially breaking into it, but the Tan-O scene has been incredibly disconnected, feeling like the scenes are cutaways or filler.  It’s almost like MB and CW are off shooting something else somewhere so the writers created this to accommodate their schedules.  It has/had potential but I’ve just about lost interest.

Why did they give Willow and Michael a love scene, but decided against that with Brando/Sasha and Nikolas/Ava? Are they that desperate to tell us that Michael is also some sex god, or are they worried that putting up Willow/Michael against other couples will show everyone just how devoid of chemistry those two are?

Anna and Valentin are dumber than a box of rocks. Chase might die, but they won't lift a finger to let Finn know that he was poisoned while Peter goes skipping back to Maxie, because they have to do what Peter wants them to do. Those two were some super duper WSB agents? Give me a break! And for the love of whatever, stop telling us how Peter is like Faison and how Faison would have done this and that. Yes, got it! Peter is as bad as his father even though he is very good at cowering in corners when threatened. It's had to take Peter seriously when he is one step away from being one of the Looney Tunes.

Does anyone give a flying fuck about what's happening in Nixon Falls? I hope Nixon does fall off the face of the earth and takes with it the least interesting characters, least interesting storyline ever. Is this the best they could come up with? They could have just sent Mo on an extended vacation while they played out this stuff in PC with Cyrus, the mob and whatever else.

Gladys sure doesn't look happy seeing Sasha around her son.

I really don't give a rat's ass about anything to do with this "give me back my mother" storyline the lazy writers have come up with.

Why did Anna need to see Cyrus in person to realize that she could best Peter by using the same methods she used against Faison? Again, the dumbing down they've had to do on her to make this stupid story work is enraging.

It doesn't look like Alexis has much protection in Pentonville (and gross that she's the only one [save for Michael] they've ever shown there being menaced), so Nik should stop his plan right now before the inevitable failure and making things worse.

There is no way Chase's tests all came back normal.when 20 minutes later he couldn't feel his hands or legs. There are precursors to nerve damage.

Why did Phyllis identify herself to Jax? Now he knows where to find Nina.

It shows how amazing Sonny is even though he's lost his memory. He's a killer poker player, understands the intricacies of being a venture capitalist and knows how to be a super PI. He'll save Nina yet, while he's saving Phyllis and Lenny from Elijah.

I do not understand the point of Jason and Carly kidnapping Florence if everyone in Port Charles including the mayor and PCPD (such as they are) are literally shrugging their shoulders at Cyrus that his mother is being held against her will and he doesn't know where she is. The entire town is now an accessory to a federal crime.

The conversation with Dante was just so...weird.  Michael came off as a starry-eyed teen who’d just gotten a date for the prom.  CD gets that “gee whiz” look a lot and that didn’t help.  Hoping that Dante would get his detective job back so that he could “be there” for Chase.  🙄

We've been asking this for weeks. I could see Cyrus not retaliating if Sonny were around, but he's not, Jason is in jail, and Cyrus knows Carly is under pressure. Now is the perfect time to grab someone close to Carly! (I'd suggest kidnapping Carly herself, but no one deserves that Ransom of Red Chief redux.)

Yet more dumbing down for an idiotic story.

If she were prank-calling Carly with snippets of Sonny talking, that would be adding something. As it is, spending time with the evul!!11!! Elijah and maybe falling for "Mike," she's pointless.

I don't know why they're teasing a Sonny/Nina hookup, because once he gets his memory back (the sooner the better, please, Show!), she's going to get the Wrath of the Corinthii raining down on her, and she can kiss her access to Wiley goodbye. No way Jax is going to be able to justify keeping Sonny for his family to Michael and Willow.

I've been feeling bad about Cyrus for some time now, unable to find out about his mother. I take it that's not what the show is going for.

I don't care how many times Anna talks about Peter being like Faison, he's still no Faison to me.

Carly is a whiny toddler. She's lost the two men she counts on for her privileged status and she can't deal with it.

He's happy! Nina keeps offering to help him find out who he is but he doesn't want to. So much for that True Love with the blonde woman he keeps seeing. He's quite happy being in Nixon Falls, flashing his dimples at Nina, and never finding out who she is.

I’m guessing it’s something exactly like this. Limiting character interaction is a way for production to bank a lot of scenes quickly. So if Mo wanted to go on vacation, they could shoot all his Tan-O crap in a week or so, but show it over a course of months. That way, the audience would never have to endure time away from his enchanting dimples.

If it’s not vacation, an alternate explanation could be that Mo wanted to limit interaction with other actors due to Covid, and they’re accommodating him. Either way, I find it hard to believe that the scintillating storyline was the driving force.

Better yet, why has no one kidnapped WILEY? Avery is Ava's, who is not living at Casa Corinthos for however long that lasts. Josslyn is a h.s. senior with an annoying mouth on her and possibly capable of escaping, plus Sonny's minions would be less invested because she's not Sonny's kid. Donna is what, a year old? Waaayyyy too much work.
Wiley, however, is the Golden Child's son and it seems like the whole damned town is invested in that kid for one reason or another. Kidnapping "MIchael's son, our grandson" and threatening that he will grow up with another family overseas would scare people, create lots of drama ... and possibly get Willow thinking about her idiotic choices.

Seriously. Faison would be ashamed of Peter's constant whining.  But this isn't surprising; the Show has a lazy history and even current track record with like father, like son/like mother like daughter comparisons: Alan and (pre-accident) medicine-focused Jason, Luke and Lucky,  Laura and Lulu (in need of psych care), Sonny and Morgan, Carly and Josslyn, Nikolas and Spencer, Michael and Wiley, and (out of Cam's mouth) Zander and Cam. That one was absurd, since Cam never even met Zander. Ironically, Cam is much more like the father of his formative years who is not being acknowledged, JJ's Lucky, when Lucky was a teenager. Playing guitar and singing, hacking computers, very loyal/kind friend to a girl,  were characteristics of young Lucky Spencer.

Oh, I like this, though Wiley does need more supervision than, say, Joss. But taking Wiley does hurt way more people. And of course, he should not survive the kidnapping. Bonus points if Shawn accidentally fatally shoots him. (In my scenario, Shawn is out of prison and, wanting to help, joins the rescue team. But being Shawn, he misses his intended target and hits Wiley, fatally, instead.)

They could do a whole thing with that like they did on AMC when they wouldn’t let David Haywood operate on his daughter’s heart (which was his specialty, and he was more talented than everyone else available.).  That would at least be interesting.  With Britt telling Finn he can’t treat his brother/son.

 

Also, how much is ELQ worth?  Nik had the capital to take it over a few years ago, and Valentin did too, even though he had lost the Cassadine fortune.  Then there’s BL who gives up what, a 5% stake in a MULTI BILLION DOLLAR international corporation just to get out of a recording contract with some third rate music producer?  5% of even $1 billion is $50 million.  So Valentin buys a large percentage of stock plus voting proxies with what might be a $10-20 million personal fortune?  There’s no way he would have the juice to finance the difference even if he’s fairly connected.  And I suspect the intention is that ELQ is worth many billions, not just one.

 

Do they not have a show bible to consult to avoid this kind of lazy writing?  Or do they just not give a damn?

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?
