Topic: Once Again, There's a Disconnect With GH and NS

Additional Comments: On NS, both Jagger and Robert have returned to PC, yet no one, including Robin and Patrick, has mentioned it on GH. I realize that many current PC residents don't know Jagger, but Robert? He just had a brain tumor removed and has now been diagnosed with colon cancer. Scrubs should at least be making some allusions to the irony of how Robin's father may be dying just as she's about to give birth. Like last year, it seems as though the two shows exist in alternate universes, even though some GH writers (like Michelle Val Jean) are on the NS staff as well. Maybe Guza is just spitefully refusing to incorporate any of the NS happenings into GH. It might actually take some time away from all of the tired mob drivel. We couldn't have that, now could we?!

Since I don't watch NS I have no idea what is going on.  But, I did wonder if the 2 shows were connected in any way.  Robert is back on NS???  Does Anna have a role on NS and know that he's back?  And just reading this doesn't make sense that they brought him back and now are giving him illness after illness.  I don't know the original reason they brought him back, but, I do wonder if it was for medical reasons or some other storyline.  I did hear Jagger was back on NS and I believe I saw him mentioning he'd be open to returning to GH.  One thing...if the shows are connected in some way, I do believe they should mention these characters.  I guess they don't want the viewers wishing they were on GH or wondering more then they have to about characters on another show (even if they are GH related characters).

  • Anna will be on NS, just hasn't appeared yet.

    They've finally brought Robert back, only to give him a brain tumor and colon cancer?  Gee, the fun never stops on this show, does it? Seeing how other characters brought back are treated and how last time Robert, Anna, and Holly came back together, and nobody had any fun at all out of it, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. So, if he dies, and I won't be surprised at that, either, then Robin will attend his funeral on the night show, but she'll go out to dinner or stay home and quibble about things with Patrick, as her usual nighttime entertainment. Will Anna hear a word of this? Will Luke, who should be getting his @ss back to town soon?  What's happening to the show is just madness; it's like they left the writers office open and it was inhabited by chimpanzees.  Well, I'm glad I'm not watching Night Shift. I wouldn't want to watch Tristan, absolutely the most charming man ever to work at GH, have to play a man dying of disease at both ends.  Sorry, sorry. Shall we just call this the end of the message board, by the way.  Only three messages in as many days and two of them by the same poster. I think it's dead, Jim.

    I'm glad I'm just watching Night Shift. Last year when I tried to watch Night Shift and GH at the same time it was just weird. Since GH sucks so much, I haven't watched in weeks. I'm pretty much enjoying Night Shift. No mob so far. WooHoo!
