I don't know how many people here watch GH...but James Franco is in his second run on GH and I have to say he is doing pretty good...a bit goofy at times but very entertaining...his real life mother plays his mom on GH she is alright...I am not sure how that came about but...I am enjoying the show...Dominic Zamprogna(who played Bruno Mannheim on SMALLVILLE S8) is great and there are a few ladies on the show who are :drool: ...Lisa LoCicero(has a bit of a Star Trek history.) is lovely. :)

Anyone else watching???

I shouldn't be saying this but Lexi Ainsworth is so yum. :drool: :lol: Ah she is still 17!!! :alienblush: :shrug:

[edit] To me GH plays more like a prime time show than a soap sometimes. And Dahlia Salem is :drool: (She is the Female in the clip. :lol: )

Can't say I've seen General Hospital recently (read ever ;)) but I did appreciate seeing Peter's Russian neighbor girl on the last episode of Hung. Very revealing performance....
 
RobertScorpio watches GH (surprise, surprise) but I haven't seen him on here in a while, since he used to make random threads seemingly every day.

Also, more people here would know Dominic Zamprogna from BSG. :p

I don't watch the show anymore. It's garbage. It's all Sonny, all the time. It's like Robert Guza and Robert Pratt masturbate thinking about Sonny while writing the show. Nothing bad will ever happen to Sonny, everything he does it right, and the cops are made to look like idiots or more corrupt than Sonny. And other characters are made to look braindead when they spout off nonsense defending him. Sonny can break his leg and it's healed the next episode. How is it a sad moment on the show when Sonny discovers he's lost the nerve to execute people?

It's like a PG-rated Sopranos that glorifies the mob only they have no actual clue about the mob. If you ask a kindergarten student his or her definition of the mafia, you'd get General Hospital's idea of it. What exactly makes Sonny public enemy number one if he doesn't deal in drugs, sex trafficking or weapons, doesn't rob banks, doesn't shake down the neighborhood, doesn't even sell bootleg DVDs? What's left? What exactly is he a mobster of? Why are people trying to kill him and he's having people killed left and right?

I remember several years back they had a cop named Brian who was a solid citizen, an honest cop, wanted to make the streets safer for decent people and a widower. And Courtney shot him in the back and killed him so he couldn't arrest MASS MURDERER HITMAN Jason. And the show acted like it was the right thing to do.

I don't watch the show anymore, but it was on one of the TVs at the gym during the episode where Dante was in jail and Sonny was trying to convince him to switch sides and join him. The absolute garbage that was coming out of Sonny's mouth about the corrupt justice system was disgusting and vile and sickening.
 
Yeah, I pretty much hate Jason and Sonny. Worst mobsters ever. As far as I can tell he's a smuggler. He's always going on an on about "shipments". I used to joke that he and Jason never seemed to kill anyone. A lot of threats but his rivals and enemies seemed to die by other means. If I ran the show I'd kill off Sonny and Jason ASAP. Preferably in a hail of bullets from PC's finest. But first I'd make them into the scum that gangsters really are.

I don't watch 'General Hospital,' but I will say that James Franco is hilarious whenever he's doing something goofy. His guest spot on '30 Rock' with the Japanese body pillow was a friggin' riot.
 
Last time I watched GH was when Antonio Sabato Jr, Jason, and the chick were stranded on an island. That was a long time ago! Before that, I liked Sunset Beach. Otherwise its just been casually paying attention to if my mom had on the ABC shows, One Live to Live or All My Children. I did love Loving and Ryan's Hope before that as a kid. I wish they would stream the old shows on one of the network websites. It's not like they could put all those years of shows on dvd! Put them online for those who want to see, save your airtime, and still get your ads and summer stock training for the cast and crew.

I miss the 80s nighttime soaps, though. If Soapnet showed those again, they wouldn't be going under!

Smuggling what though? If it's not drugs, weapons or human trafficking, then they're not mobsters!

Port Charles is being infected with knockoff jeans, and the name of that disease is Sonny Corinthos!

PC is near Canada. Back bacon and Moulsons I guess. Or bootleg Celine Dion CDs.
