General Hospital/Tear Jerker

Tear Jerkers in  include:

"Tony: I want Maxie to have BJ's heart Bobbie: Oh no! NO! It's. too. soon!"
 * While Soap Operas in general are liable to have a few tearjerkers mixed in with all the Narm, one would be hardpressed to find a span of time more rich with tearjerkers than 1994-1995 on General Hospital. In those two years, you had Monica Quartermaine's breast cancer, Stone and Robin's HIV/AIDS and perhaps the most tearjerking story ever on soaps, BJ's heart. Dominique's death in 1993 after hearing her unborn baby's heartbeat (carried by surrogate Lucy) was another good one.
 * Karen admitting to ex-boyfriend Jagger that she had been sexually abused as child, felt unworthy of love, and that that's why she pushed him away and broke up with him always got to me.
 * BJ's death, which is on here, has to be THE biggest tear jerker a soap has ever done. Too many moments to name, here are just some of the biggest tear jerkers
 * Bobbie and Tony talking about giving BJ's heart to Maxie. Bobbie's response is so raw and so emotional, yet so believable.

"Felicia: Oh, God. . .not Barbara Jean! Not Barbara Jean's heart! Oh NOOO!! (collapses on the ground sobbing, Bobbie goes over and hugs her as if to say "It's OK, it's not your fault, don't be upset)."
 * Then saying Bobbie telling Tony "You're not thinking straight. You're angry, you're punishing me"
 * Felicia finding out BJ's heart is the heart her daughter is getting. A mother's joy is turned to grief.


 * A grieving mother still takes time to comfort her distraught sister in law and they cry together. . .I'm tearing up writing this. Kristina Wagner and Jackie Heyman
 * Tony saying goodbye to his daughter: I will give my heart to you, and no one will ever be able to hurt us again.
 * The scene of Tony laying his head on Maxie's chest listening to his daughter's heart beating within Maxie. Brad Maule deserves all the praise he got for this story, he doesn't say anything in that scene, yet doesn't need to.
 * What were the writers trying to do to us? Make us cry? Make us feel the pain? Well, it worked
