I haven't seen anything other than these clips (I live abroad) but is it written into the storyline that his character is baked all the time, or is that just something he, ahem, "improvised" all on his own?
It looks like they are moving his story along pretty quickly too. (I mean in soap opera terms.) I haven't watched one in years but one of my main memories is of how they'd move along soooo slowly. Like they's have the same characters talking about the same thing, in the same room for daaaaaays. This was one of the reasons I swore of soaps for-evah!
i was an avid "days of our lives" watcher around 1993-1994 at the whopping age of eight thanks to my older sister and aunt. ONe of the names for my fictional band is the Stefano DiMeras.
This is making me a) watch GH again, which I've not done in 20 years other than after surgery while on serious drugs and b) love James Franco, which I did not before.
Is this performance art? Because whatever it is, it's working for me.
@BetteD: I'm all the way down the rabbit hole. I can say from the depths of my soul that if this is wrong, then being right is nowhere near worth the effort.
This is a beautiful thing. I'd forgotten how bizarre soap operas were!
This is just amazing. Just amazing. I love that while all this uncomfortable drama is going on around him, JFranc is totally all, "Imma just be stoned and smoldery n' stuff. Yeah. You like that dontcha?" Yes, please!
@sarah.of.a.lesser.god (aka Mrs. BrutallyHonestHobbit): I'm not sure I'd have any idea what was going on with the plot if I were watching the entire episode because I'd be so busy swooning over James Franco's smouldery eyes and bedroom voice.
This is absolute GOLD. He looks like he's about to BUST OUT laughing every time he has a line. Mmmm, I do love me some Franco, even if it's silly soap opera version.

I would've kept blowing my lines and mumbling, "OMG, it's really James Franco" *stupid giggle*

My knowledge of soap operas is one of the many things that I bring to trivia night.

Oh god, picture him whispering this into your ear in that delicious bed voice of his. Now that is the stuff of wet dreams.

I'm glad he's had at least one scene with Luke. I'll have to start watching it on Hulu, where I can see where they actually go.
