"General Hospital" executive producer Frank Valentini teased fans on Twitter by warning, "Willow will break your heart today — watch out!" In response, many viewers stated that they were tired of her storyline and just want it to be over. Quite a few even posted that they were heartbroken that Willow hasn't died yet. "#GH is trying way too hard to give Carly and Willow an insta-relationship. We all know Carly would have ZERO use for Willow if she and Michael ever split up," one wrote.
A viewer irritated that Willow wants Carly to be part of the wedding argued, "She breaks my heart by having Carly as her maid of honor. The one who lied to her for months. This is part of what makes this character un-rootable. She should have gotten the cold shoulder but nope, in Carly's world lying gets you extra perks I guess." Another agreed, noting, "Willow just annoyed me as usual. Who picks their future mother-in-law to be their matron of honor??? How far will you go to try to make Carly a hero rather than the vindictive, impulsive shrew she often is?"
It wasn't all negative, though. One person who's enjoying Willow's story thus far responded: "Love Michael and Willow. Good storyline. Loved when she asked Carly to be her maid of honor. So sweet!!" However, a viewer that is completely done with the story hilariously countered, "She [Willow] already broke my fast-forward button, now this?"
