Robin and HIV: Labine vs. Wolf - part 1

Claire Labine's HIV storyline is one of the most iconic stories of GH. Garin Wolf's HIV storyline, on the other hand, just plain sucks. I have a choice: I can either kick my TV in frustration or I can snark. I choose to snark.

Disclaimer: This is not meant as a criticism of the actors involved with Garin's storyline. All things considered, they are doing a pretty good job with this turd of a story that Wolf has penned.

when she was speaking to robert in 1995 is that a dream sequence because wasn't he presumed to have been dead in an explosion in the early 90's?

the 2 or 3 protein HIV test is not accurate - vaccinations, drug use, steroids and pregnancy can all cause positive hiv test results - hivquestions

BRAVO for this. You summed up my feelings and I am sure others. You need to send this to the new head writer. Let him see what we are all feeling.@carlivatiron TY for doing this.Jason and Liz especially Liz spewing Robin's dialogue had no business in this story.

Thank you for this. It's cathartic.

Well done. Current GH writers are probably banking on people not having seen the original HIV storyline. Because then they'd see how out of character this is for Robin.

Brilliant.
