I’d Be Good For You: Is Nina Good For General Hospital’s Sonny?

Whether you believe that General Hospital’s Sonny Corinthos and Carly Corinthos are a love for the ages… or you found Nina Reeves and SMike adorable, the big question remains, is Nina good for the mumbly mobster?

General Hospital Polling

Does Nina have what it takes to keep Sonny balanced and fully engaged for the long haul? Here is what almost 2,000 General Hospital viewers had to say about that:

GH: Family First

Being with Nina (Cynthia Watros) makes  Sonny (Maurice Benard) put her above his family, which includes Carly (Laura Wright), Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell), Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy), Avery and Donna… oh, and little Wiley, too. And that is not in any way acceptable, according to 65% of the audience. Anything that takes Sonny’s mind off his relatives is obviously very, very bad.

General Hospital: Short Term Gains

Nina may be good for Sonny now, 24% of you shrug, but no one can make Sonny do anything for long. He’s either an independent thinker… or a stubborn man-child. Either way, he won’t be under Nina’s spell for the long haul. The minute she suggests what he should do no longer meshes with what he wants to do, like a toddler, Sonny will throw a tantrum and announce, “I do it myself!” So he can stay with Nina, or he can go back to Carly – like always but, in the end, Sonny will do things Sonny’s way. Accept it, Port Charles.

GH: Clean Living

Only 11% of fans can see the good in Nina’s influence over Sonny. She got him to take his bipolar medication again, she got him to stop drinking. Heck, she even has him smiling again, which means the dimples are back. And those dimple appearances have been few and far between lately. Between Carly being furious that Sonny never went looking for her while he had amnesia, and Michael not obeying Sonny’s dictates about who Wiley can and cannot see, Sonny hasn’t had much to smile about. Except for Nina.
