  1. You think you have to hide? I think Griffin looks better with the long hair than the short hair in his photo, although a trim probably wouldn't hurt.

     

    I love the length of his hair (much, much more than the short-haired pic).  They just need to find a way to style it without using a full can of Crisco on it every day.

  2. Sabrina's fantasies were pretty agonizing. Didn't she have one with Patrick in a suit her very first episode?

     

    Yes.

     

    Both she and Britt turned up together for the first time on the very same day -- I remember that they were on at the very beginning of the episode and I was like, "Who the ever-loving fuck are these people mooning/sniping at each other over Patrick?"

  3. Yeah, Robert is in the previews, so he's at the wedding. Damn, y'all, I'm gonna be a mess. And if they have flashbacks, I'm gonna be posting here through tears and bites of apple pie filling.

     

    I'm right there with you.  I came back to the show most recently in late 2005 -- I was sucked in by the impending return of my former crush Noah Drake after 20-odd years, which coincided with Patrick's debut, and JT quickly became a favorite of mine and a big reason I stuck around.  Scrubs were really something special, and their heyday was the last time the hospital really felt like an integral part of the show, IMO. I'll miss their characters big time, and I know I'll be blubbering as they remarry and say goodbye.

  4. While watching the repeat episode today (what, I was feeling too lazy to change the channel!), a Soaps In Depth commercial came on, leading with "Franco and Nina finally make love!"  Jasus.  Trigger warning, SID!  I just ate! 

     

    I saw that and it killed me that THAT constituted a cover story complete with huge photo.  Slow spoiler week, I guess.

  5. Sonny: I love these new towels that Graciela bought from K-Mart from the Sophia Vergara Collection.

    Dante: I can't wait for the next nd episode of Sofia Vergara's show, Modern Family.

    Valerie: yeah, Wednesdays at 9 / 8 central. That was my mom's favorite hour of fhe week.

    Carry: Speaking of Sophia Vergara, have you all seen the new Rooms 2 Go Cindy Crawford Collection couches I put in the MetroCourt?

     

    I remember one year they had Bobbie standing at the hospital hub talking about how she was "going over to Carly's tonight to watch the Academy Awards at 8PM on ABC."

  6. I don't even know why but the Michael/Sabrina scenes made me so angry. Like I don't even care that much about either of them and it's not like I shipped them hardcore or anything, but this whole story fills me with rage. It's just so fucking dumb. Also it is so hilarious that in this ep you have Robin basically bending over backwards to absolve Liz for what she did while Michael yells at Sabrina. Like I get that Sabrina shouldn't have lied, but Michael's reaction is a bit much. UGH I hate everything so much! Is TeCa leaving? Because that is literally the only way this story makes any sense.

     

    Michael's reaction to Sabrina here is particularly ludicrous considering that he forgave Sonny for, oh, merely KILLING HIS FATHER IN COLD BLOOD and Carly for lying about it for months.

  7. Best actress:  Finola Hughes, Laura Wright (their ability to make the best out of the crap they are given always astounds me)

     

    Best actor: Hmm. Tough one this year. I’ll go with Tyler for the scenes when Spencer was in the hospital – he was pretty moving in those. And JJ was great during his brief visit. And kudos to Young Luke.

     

    Worst actress:  Hayley Erin for those post-Silas’ death scenes. I still have secondhand embarrassment thinking about them.

     

    Worst actor:   I’ll give the tree a few points for improvement over the past year, but, alas, a tree is ultimately still a tree.

     

    Best character:  Hmm, who didn’t make me want to punch a wall this year?  I’ll say Anna, just because (thanks to FH) she’ll never not interest me as a character even when her writing is complete and utter shit.

    Worst character:  Gotta go with Valerie this year. She originally had potential, but was quickly revealed to be merely a poorly defined and pathetic plot device. HMs also to my usual suspects, Sonny, Carly, Franco, Nina.

     

    Best couple:   Lucas and Brad, I guess.

    Worst couple:  Sonny/Carly (though I do appreciate them being together for containment purposes, they’re virtually insufferable), Franco/Nina (sorry, a romance between a SERIAL KILLER and Jennifer Garner’s character from 13 Going On 30 just ain’t sexy), Dante/Valerie (just WTF-ever)

    Best story:  What’s a best story? For lack of anything else, I’ll give props to the anniversary show, which was nicely done in spite of all the story fuckery that led up to it.

    Worst story:  It’s a tough call, but I’ll go with Michael returning to Sonny’s rectum.  What a waste of years of potential story.  HM to the Luke exit.  HHM to Denise DiMuccio.

     

    Most welcome return: Lucky Spencer. Seeing him again was one of the few bright lights of a dark, dark year.

     

    Biggest waste of a character:  Ric Lansing (in other news, today is Saturday). HM: Lucas (Ryan Carnes is an asset that should be used far, far better)

    Most destroyed character:  So, so many contenders, but I’m going with my heart here and giving this one to my soap ex-boyfriend, Dante Falconeri.

    Biggest waste of an actor:  Jason Thompson.  This show should be kicking itself – hard -- for letting him go.
