Welcome irishrose you're a breath of fresh air. I agree with you to wait and see. There is more to this story.

I haven't watched yet and from what I've read don't really want to. However, my need to find others to commiserate/vent with led me to this board so that's good.
There has to be more to the story.

I really think it will be ok. Why would they bring Holly back just to beat to death the same old story? And why is Emma so happy with the results? I just can't lose faith yet. But welcome to the board, and feel free to vent any time!!

Thanks for the welcome!
I agree that if nothing were to change, they wouldn't need Holly back and Emma sure wouldn't be happy with it. So I haven't gone over the ledge just yet.

I like the optimism I see but I do think we have to prepare for the worst.
Holly slept with both Luke and Robert but she didn't know who the father was. She was mad at Robert (apparently they were sleeping around but not married) and found out she was pregnant after he went on a mission. So, she gave Ethan up for adoption. Later, she felt guilty and sent him to Luke so he could have a father figure.
I am praying that this is not the case and there is a GOOD reason for Holly lying but so far I'm just not seeing it. I think Emma is happy because Ethan will end up a Scorpio but I don't think she realizes that most of us want Holly IN CHARACTER more than we want Ethan Scorpio. I never would have thought Ron could get it so wrong....especially when the coma baby story basically writes itself.

What I'm finding hard to wrap my mind around is the fact that Emma has been quoted everywhere as saying Holly was written so much better. I'm seeing the same Holly I saw in 2006 and 2009. Does everyone really see her this way, as a lying con artist seductress? And what happened to the coma story she told in 1992? What happened to 1992 period, if Robert and Holly weren't married anymore in the 80s?? I may have to join some of you on that bridge, if this continues. Yes, I wanted (still want) Ethan Scorpio, but I want a recognizable Holly with her history intact, too.

For those of you who want to jump off the bridge, please don't. I know it's distressing to see what's transpiring, but I really believe it's a part of a bigger story.
There is a lot more going on than we're seeing right now and as difficult as it is, we just have to hang in there and see how it all plays out.
Wasn't one of the reasons Emma came back was because Holly was finally being redeemed? To me that says no affair and no Spencer baby.
Keep this quote in mind because to me it says that we don't know anything yet even though it seems very apparent from the last three days.
Call me a cockeyed optimist if you want to, but I just refuse to believe that Holly cheated on Robert; he was and is the love of her life. She was understandably upset with him for leaving her alone so much but she wouldn't retaliate that way; especially with Luke. She may have been hurt, but she wasn't vindictive. I'll repeat what I said yesterday; I do think we are being deliberately misled. Call it a gut feeling or intuition, but this story is far from over and loose ends have not even begun to be tied up.
After being burned by the previous writing team and their total disrespect for not only Holly, but Robert as well, I can understand the disgust at what appears to be unfolding. But until those final scenes that Emma talked about hit the air, I will hold onto my 'wait and see' attitude.
And thank you for such a warm welcome to the board yesterday. As a long time Robert and Holly fan, I'm happy to be here.

Thanks for the pep talks, IrishRose ... I'm still watching, I won't turn away as long as my favs are on. But, as you say, being burned 3x now ... you know the old "fool me once, fool me twice" cliched, well this is #4!

I actually go back and forth between thinking it will all be all right in the end, and thinking we've all gotten another kick in the ass. I'm hanging onto Emma's "keep watching" comment for dear life.

Sad to say that I was relieved that Holly was not on today. I could watch GH with both eyes open. And this out of character Holly is really distracting me from enjoying the Robert scenes. I want to...I sort of do...but I'm so distraught over Holly that I can't enjoy them. I still say we may get royally screwed over and the main reason I think this is because Emma's definition of good and our definition of good may vary. She may think Ethan Scorpio is enough whereas we need to have Holly more in character. Good to have you here irishrose. It's always good to have new blood and an optimistic poster.

Welcome to the board irishrose. I wish I could as optimistic as you. Thank you for that. And I'll tell you what, if you want I can be optimistic for the both of us.
