Yes, It's Friday but... I'm out celebrating
32 years with the Wub Hub!
Today's show is also a repeat of yesterday-- well, 1/2 of yesterday
So let me know about the last 30 min!!
The Daytime EMMYS were held recently and GH did fairly well in the acting categories. This made me think about some other acting performances in history that were worthy of an EMMY but were overlooked. Karen and I are going to each pick one scene/story and dissect it and nominate our unsung hero.
I want to eliminate the "big ones" (Stone's death, BJ's death). I think we all know they are in an acting class by themselves. Here is mine:
GOODBYE, DETECTIVE
Sonny shooting Dante was filmed in the genre of The Godfather. While Dante was being shot, Joss was being baptized and they interspersed the scenes. Olivia came in an uttered a memorable line "You just shot your own son". And for several scenes, she was a frantic mother watching her son bleed to death to a mother feeling guilty for not telling her son the truth. Her range here was immaculate. She could have wavered between over the top and under the top but she just nailed everything. I remember her on the show Loving. I loved her there and love her here. It makes me wonder why they don't use her more often. She has the talent and she clearly can own a scene. And was nominated for an Emmy once. Right now, she is filler. They are wasting her, in my opinion. While watching the videos in this storyline, I have to acknowledge Lulu (Julie Berman) as well. She was really good and I do miss her.
THE BAD SEED:
Why Connie Towers never won an Emmy for her turn as Helena Cassadine, I will never understand. She was superb in every scene. This is my personal favorite. She poisons Stefan with a paralitic drug and then taunts him while he lays there. Delivery: So on point. Evilness? Amazing. Five stars. She even tells him he was bad at breast feeding!!
What are some of YOUR favorite scenes/characters
that you thought deserved an Emmy Nod?
PS: Side note from Dave. Is anyone shocked that Karen picked Helena? Anyone?
Happy 32 years!
ReplyDeleteNo Emmy for GH editing: Britt on her 'date' wearing a red dress. Appears at Haunted Star in a black dress. No time or mention about changing. Really bad.
Not much happened and then...Special Report: Gannon is guilty. Who cares.
We did get the previews. Esme is in a pickle.
"Zazu says, Britt on her 'date' wearing a red dress. Appears at Haunted Star in a black dress"
DeleteOh you're right!!! I didn't even notice. Hahahahaha!
Also, it was daytime for Curtis and Selena, and nighttime at the Haunted Star
Deletei said "Gannon"...must have been thinking about Nora. lol
DeleteGaffes like these make me think that either "GH" is purposely disrespecting fans or just don't care. Either option makes me angry.
DeleteI already told you this on twitter Karen, but HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO YOU AND YOUR HUBBY! :) Okay so since I already watched GH online yesterday, and shared my comments already, I'll copy and paste my comments from July 21st 2017. Then I'll copy and paste, then do the flashback Friday. Oh and there was breaking news close to the end of the episode today. STEVE BANNON TRIAL! HE WAS FOUND GUILTY! :)

Yesterday we saw a repeat episode here in NYC, so of course looking forward to see a new one today.Woyld you believe that 15 minutes before the end, the show was interrupted again with an update of Biden's condition?
ReplyDeleteNo, this interruption was about Bannon being guilty. It's always something.
DeleteIn NYC, it was a press conference re Biden that interrupted @3:45pm.
Delete"Shelley D. says, In NYC, it was a press conference re Biden that interrupted @3:45pm."
DeleteHow weird!!! Everywhere else it was Bannon, and in NYC it was Biden.
Just as long as they interrupted the show with something!!
DeleteAt 2:45 central time in Chicago it was Biden update also.
