GH Sonny & Brenda - Brenda learns of Lily's death & goes to Sonny, 1996

[@TheMdterp]

This was PEAK GH. The writing, the directing, the characters, and the music.

[@SergMilli]

Absolute facts!

[@deloreswillis9224]

At it's BEST I LOVED IT BACK THEN

[@jgirlinluv55]

A character would die and it would effect all of the characters in some way. Stone and Lily's deaths were so sad.

[@ESSER68NJ]

Next to the Luke and Laura days ... Yes it was the best era.

You’re wrong peak GH 1979-1987 number one soap on TV out of 15 soaps. Luke and Laura saved GH from cancellation

I loved Brenda with both Sonny AND Jax. :)

[@sherilynn70]

@@sonyab1974Jax was selfish just like Lily. He knew Brenda loved Sonny and took advantage of that. If Lily didn’t get pregnant Brenda would have never started a romantic relationship with him. Jax was a distraction for Brenda to not honk about Sonny. Kind of pathetic on Jax…and Lily’s part!! I never could stand Jax. Carly and Jax are better!

[@brynne77]

I always liked Jax, but you have a good point, Jax was selfish.. either that, or just wasn't thinking, so he got together with Brenda though he knew she loved Sonny.@@sherilynn70

Did he really, tho?

I loved the friendships back then, though, I don't really consider Jax being part of the gang at that time. I absolutely adored the Sonny, Brenda and Lois threesome. The 94/95 era was the best.

[@GillianMcGeorge-Cruikshank]

Never have any good relationships anymore. Never let anyone be good, solid and devoted without turning them into shadows of themselves. Look what they did to Brenda, Luke, Lucky and even Robert. If emma samms was not coming back he could have had someone totally new instead of Anna. Those two just didnot belong, especially after what Anna did and was willing to do to Holly who was suppose to be Roberts true love. I think Holly would of accepted it if it was anyone other than Anna.

[@MrCsmoove504]

I love Vanessa Marcil!!

[@ronaldray1130]

Sonny never loved Lily. It was always Brenda. Lily was a serious Rebound.

[@shannonfields2740]

Nah, he was never in love with Lily. He may have loved her as a person but theirs was a loveless marriage and Lily knew that. There’s a big difference. He was completely in love with Brenda, before, during, and after his marriage to Lily.

[@rosanneperkins9516]

I always think Sonny tried to love Lily. But his true passion and the one that he wanted to be with was Brenda

[@sandrajohnson4778]

Just because he wasn't high on Lily the was he was with Brenda, didn't mean that he didn't love her....she was important to him and he loved her.

Maurice is fine but Maurice was FOINE this era.

[@MyDymin]

FACTS!! Like his swag was on 10!

[@SergMilli]

I don't think people have the attention span in the "Reality Tv" era we're in for this kind of story telling anymore so I don't even know if the blame should fall squarely on the writers for how low the current quality of this show is in comparison to 1996. Whatever the case maybe, early to mid 90s GH was absolutely awesome and I miss it.

[@JulieMorency]

You hit the nail on the head. I do blame the writers because of course, they have agency on the show but yes, the audience's short attention span is definitely to blame. They'll just move onto another show if they find storylines to be too "long".

[@angiechambless1092]

GH was excellent back then. The writers, the actors all worked magic in soap stories.

He was the joey Buchanan of gh ) aj getting Carly pregnant with Michael , Nikolas and lucky becoming young leading men just great characters Helena played by constance towers, alexis Stefan Carly nik lucky Lois Jax jason Morgan all characters created during this time period. The next Era of gh that was really good was 2009 to 2011 the Zacharas particular johnny Dante and lante return of Jonathan Jackson as lucky and him reading Liz to filth was one of my favorites ever . The Spencer crew with luke lucky lulu and Ethan ( I really liked him amd his different son chemistry with luke ) jasam reunited as bonnie and Clyde getting in shootouts the Jax Carly sonny brenda custody thing just brenda returning always inspires great writing . Her return in 02 was fantastic . Michael going to prison was interesting alexis giving my second favorite roasting of Carly about jax. The show was just realky good .

He was planning on getting out of it and being with Brenda at all costs. Then he found out that Lily was pregnant and felt it was only right to marry her.
