@TheSag

Do you have a recording of the GH song in German you were looking for? I wanna listen and see if I can figure it out.

Also, do you remember an alien being on GH?

I'm starting to think it's the Mandela Effect : O I couldn't find anything on the internet about it. I even asked my mom and she said she doesn't remember watching it. This my friend, is a lie and a cover up on my own mother's part! I remember half ass watching it myself when I was little.

There was an alien and he was Duke!

lmao I think @Justagirl used to watch GH. Maybe she remembers this elusive alien plot

I'm gonna watch when I come back from hiatus when dxp goes back to talking shit about each other's signs instead of real life.

We all have the news. These topics and comments are too depressing for me.

But...

It was Duke!!

After 54 years, I watched the stories of the left-handed boy and ice princesses again and was actually not sure whether I should continue watching GH. Back in Germany, GH ended shortly afterwards when Luke met a new woman (?) and Demi Moore was on the show. But now Luke, Laura, Scorpio and his blonde lover are struggling to find new jobs, which is actually very interesting to see.

And I don't know if it was the writing or the freedom the actors enjoyed back then but there are dialogues that looked improvised and scatchy for a soap, almost like a sitcom. For example, when Robert says to Luke "this is a low blow" and Luke answers something like "I'm not that type of a man" or when Luke asks Robert 's lover when she was on top the last time (in terms of her work life) and Robert replies "just recently" (apparently not referring to her job). There were some good actors on this show, like this actress who plays Laura's mom. Did you know that she is married to that guy who plays the police chief in real life?

Will Frank Smith and the Cassadines build a new super weapon and terrorize Gotham City? Will Scotty come back and beat Luke up for good? Anyway, I like Scorpio the most. He doesn't have a job but still lives in his penthouse and doesn't even have money. He just got a job offer but has to move to NY !!! Will he break up with Luke? Will Roke or Lubert, as we experts call them, separate forever? Damn it, Scorpio is such an likeable character, he reminds me of the twin brother I never had. 😢

I def do think Actors on soaps in the 80s had a lot more leeway to spitball some dialogue. Especially when it came to comedy. I dont think early 80s gh aged well tho but that could just be me

In what way didn't they age well?

They both aged.

The only one that didn't age is Duke... because he's an alien.

lol I still don't know who Duke is but the more I read about him the more I want to find out

He was played by 2 different actors...

Burt: "What did you find on Duke?"

Anna: "Nothing... it's like he didn't exist before landing in Port Charles."

Robin's babysitter: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Duke: "I'm Anna's friend. I came over to cook dinner."

Robin: "... when he comes back as an alien he'll hide under my bed and play with my dolls."

After 54 years, I watched the stories of the left-handed boy and ice princesses again and was actually not sure whether I should continue watching GH. Back in Germany, GH ended shortly afterwards when Luke met a new woman (?) and Demi Moore was on the show. But now Luke, Laura, Scorpio and his blonde lover are struggling to find new jobs, which is actually very interesting to see.

And I don't know if it was the writing or the freedom the actors enjoyed back then but there are dialogues that looked improvised and scatchy for a soap, almost like a sitcom. For example, when Robert says to Luke "this is a low blow" and Luke answers something like "I'm not that type of a man" or when Luke asks Robert 's lover when she was on top the last time (in terms of her work life) and Robert replies "just recently" (apparently not referring to her job). There were some good actors on this show, like this actress who plays Laura's mom. Did you know that she is married to that guy who plays the police chief in real life?

Will Frank Smith and the Cassadines build a new super weapon and terrorize Gotham City? Will Scotty come back and beat Luke up for good? Anyway, I like Scorpio the most. He doesn't have a job but still lives in his penthouse and doesn't even have money. He just got a job offer but has to move to NY !!! Will he break up with Luke? Will Roke or Lubert, as we experts call them, separate forever? Damn it, Scorpio is such an likeable character, he reminds me of the twin brother I never had. 😢

rofl nice avi

I def do think Actors on soaps in the 80s had a lot more leeway to spitball some dialogue. Especially when it came to comedy. I dont think early 80s gh aged well tho but that could just be me

Luke & Robert 4ever!
