  • Sonny learns that Robin is HIV positive. Sonny and Mac offer comfort to each other. Robin asks Sonny to break the news to Brenda.
    I've always really loved the scene where Sonny tells Brenda about Robin. It is beautifully done by Maurice & Vanessa

    This was GH at it's best. This was when I actually liked Sonny. And the fact that so many characters came together in this storyline to support Stone and Robin. Just amazing storytelling.

    I never thought they'd make Robin HIV+. Sweet, innocent, little Robin with HIV? Never! I was floored when she was positive! This was one of the best and most important storylines on TV...not just soaps, on ALL of TV. GH handled this beautifully! I was very young at the time and learned SO much about HIV/AIDS from GH.

Her story impacted millions and showed that under the right (albeit, privileged) circumstances, HIV is no longer a death sentence. I simply don't know what there is to hate about something that can offer hope to others facing similar circumstances.

      @@renealexander2703 you don't have to be jumping for joy, and certainly at the time I'm sure every Robin fan was devastated, but she gained a sense of empowerment with it. It was devastating yet there was collateralized beauty that her character got to be front and center for such well done and well-received stories that undoubtedly saved lives. And the reality of it is, that's down to the writing and Kimberly's abilities so I'm glad it was her character who navigated it. She gave a face to HIV/AIDS on Daytime Television and became a positive, non-stereotyped image.

    Watching these scenes you can understand why Robin and Sonny were close and continued to be as long as KMc is on the show. Even Patrick eventually comes to accept Sonny as a part of Robin's life. By the time JT decided to leave and they reactivated the NB Patrick learns to accept Sonny for who he is. This was an important story to tell and GH brings it up throughout the years, instead of dropping the shoes about Robin's HIV status, when she returned in 2005 and whenever she returns for short stints.

      Ditto. I consider this to be the golden age for General Hospital. I'm sure others have their ideas of what the golden age was for them but this is it for me. And I'm not afraid to assume that nobody would think Sonny was any less a tough guy if he'd fallen to his knees crying over all of this.

    I think that Mac holds back a lot even now, with sonny. Because of his emotional ties to sonny, Stone and Robin. that will always be something they have in common.

  • @coleypinkful
    @coleypinkful 14 лет назад +8

    Sonny rarely shows his softer side to anyone, he is always that way with Robin though. With what is going on right now for Sonny in 2010 it would be a good time for Stone's ghost to appear and give him some comfort. He is losing his kids, and now jason is going to prison, grantead some of it he brought on himself but to lose your kids and best friend, sucks. I hope Robin is there for him, now would be a perfect time for Stone or Brenda to comfort him too.

    @SonnyBrendaFan I know what you mean. The show's quality came to a hault at the tail end of 98 when they messed with Jason, robin and Sonny and killed off Brenda, Aj and a few of the other Q's. It just isn't the same anymore I try watching now but it isn't interesting enough. I have some hope becuz i heard Vanessa is coming back, Who knows though. IF they were smart they'd put the fab4 back.

    @JASAMNJEXIE4EVA I know all because of Carly. Over the years though Sonny and Robin seem to have gotten a little bit of that back. Though it isn't what it used to be, they were like brother and sister. She did tell her father Robert when her reappeared from the dead in 06 that Sonny was a like a father to her and meant more to her than he would.hopefully with Brenda coming back they can go back to those friendships that made Gh what it was..an actual good show to watch.
