Felicia, I love you but ambushing new members of your family into having a sit down and then telling then "that's what families do!" is a big reason why a lot of people don't talk to their families. There's like entire subreddits about this. Even though Ric is a smarmy man, he and Liz still bring the pretty although heh at her telling him she has Lucky. I had a meeting today that could have been an email and even then, it was more interesting than watching Trina and Kai.

Dear Willow, a lot of us watching this show are from the US and therefore have terrible insurance that is not going to cover soap opera related injuries from whiplash sustained because of a character jumping back and forth on decisions at the speed of light. "I can have whoever I want in my home!", "Yeah it was probably a bad idea to have Drew in my home", *heart eyes at Drew*, "Yeah I still love Michael". Girl make a decision, at least just one, and stick with it for more than 5 seconds. Speaking of decisions, bad ones, was noted bigot Natalia a contestant on a reality show called Bad Decision Island? Sonny, Sidwell, all the bigotry, making her kids hate her, etc. I mean she'd be a winner for sure! I know by all rights Lucas should hold a lifelong grudge against Carly for breaking up his parent's marriage and destroying Tony's life, but VH and LW have fantastic sibling chemistry so I'm buying it even though I kinda hate it. I really hate the Cyrus is the big bad evil story line, mainly because I like JK. Can't they just retcon it with a Franco brain tumor and that was the reason for all the evil? I mean this is a show wherein our hero shot an FBI agent point blank in the chest and the other characters are like "meh", so surely they can find a way to rehab him (but maybe drop the preacher part too).

I'm not understanding why they bothered recasting Brennan when they could have just had Valentin kill him and then bring in the recast actor as like the new head of the WSB Port Charles outpost or something. No offense to the new actor at all, but the lines he was saying were clearly written for another actor who played the role a completely different way. Plus, LW only seems to have chemistry with Aussie actors, I mean was it that hard to find an Australian actor as a recast? I'm sure the Hemsworth brothers have an uncle who might not be busy. Tracy's delight in the airing of dirty laundry at the MC was hilarious as was Lulu's attempts to take notes during the meeting. But man, Drew deserves every bit of the hate he's getting. Why does he have to go bring Sasha's private business out into public just because he's getting called out? Jason's a grown ass man so who cares who he sleeps with? This is just petty and not even a fun sort of petty. It would make sense if he knew Michael was the father and he and Sasha had been together while he was married to Willow, but he doesn't know that. Even Sonny is better at deflection than Drew's "I'm rubber, you're glue" bullshit. Also, I wish they would steal the old Pine Cone Motel set from AMC for Willow and Drew's assignations because that was the perfect set for gross affairs!

The L&L2 Detective Agency is open for business and hella charming! Also a nice dichotomy between Liz and Lucky as exes who can discuss a lot of things and Dante and Lulu as exes who still care about each other but recognize they are in a place where a lot of subjects are still very much off limits.

Recently upgraded to Hulu with no ads and now I really miss the ads when watching this show! Jason, Sasha's maybe 3 months along and Michael is unable to be a father to the kids he does acknowledge at the moment so there's really no reason to hop a flight to Germany and wake him up from a medically induced coma causing him excruciating pain to ask questions about something that's really nunya in the first place. I mean remember the kid you have who recently lost his mother? Maybe stick around for him instead of running off to Germany. Although who am I kidding, Jason already forgot about, Denny? David? Dean? about 5 seconds after Sam was in the ground. Also on the list of people who have forgotten they have a son, shut up Lulu! Do the wardrobe people hate Brook Lynn? The whole dark colored blouses tucked half in and half out like a business casual mullet are not in the least bit flattering. I understand if the actress doesn't want to wear the same kind of stripper outfits she wore on OLTL, nor would it make sense for the character, but they could dress her better. I mean a dress and a cardigan would look nice as well as look professional since BLQ is all businesswoman now. AS is a beautiful woman and they're dressing her in shit my grandma would have cast off as too dowdy when she was 95. Drew wanting to "settle things in the ring" is hysterical since I'm pretty sure Curtis could mop the floor with him even if he had the flu, a sprained ankle and hysterical blindness. But what an effing juvenile way to try and settle things, is Drew gonna ask him to race for pink slips next? Valentin, you're a Cassadine and they toy with their enemies by taking away or harming the people they care about, so yeah Carly is literally in the same hotel, I can't help you out with the room number, but it's the one with the most hideous wallpaper I believe I've ever seen (and I grew up in the 70's). Now go take care of that business and then please just take Charlotte to go live on the moon.

I'll be honest, I completely forgot Sam and Patrick were a couple, I was either on the barge at the time, or my memories of any non-Robin romance for Patrick have been completely overtaken by that godawful Sabrina storyline. And trust me, I'm angry at myself that that storyline is taking up any space in my brain. Boy is Olivia gonna be pissed when she finds out the best kept secret in Bensonhurst isn't her Nonna's lasagna recipe!
-
Liz and Lucky working together are everything. Drew, please keep AJ's name out of your mouth and stop talking about your family like you're reading a fan wiki page about them. Also stop being a constant reminder of why my congress critters get nothing done because showing up is actually part of the job. Laura deserves so much better. I love CW and the writing for Nina has been consistently all over the place, but her scheming and friendship with Curtis really works well.
-
These days I think I’d rather watch a storyline with Foster and Annabelle guest starring Rosie the dog as the peanut gallery than like 85% of the show.

I accidentally called 911 from my office once because I was trying to dial a UK number and instead of starting with 9-011, I dialed 911 then realized what I did when it started ringing, hung up, they called immediately back and l said "Oh shit, I'm sorry I'm an idiot, I was trying to dial England!!". They still showed up at the office because I think they had to, but mainly I think they just wanted to laugh at me in person.

I thought it was nice of Jamie to come up with some nice adjectives to describe Geneva instead of just telling William, "She was a spoiled, selfish pain in the ass, you know you remind me a lot of her".

Wait, so Sidwell, the same guy who kidnapped and nearly killed the Police Commissioner, Port Charles's sainted hitman, and the prodigal son of the mayor is just prancing around town not even using an alias? I can buy Ava being out of the loop, but we had scenes where Anna told Felicia everything that went down with Sidwell and the Lucky rescue (leaving out the gross bits with Jason) and we're supposed to believe that at no time did Felicia or no one else let anything slip to town gossip Lucy? The local WSB doesn't even have him on their radar? I mean I know their local bureau chief is trying desperately to get a game of hide the salami going with Carly, but I still can't believe he's that derelict in his duties! Oh goody, looks like we're in for more sniping between BLQ and Lulu. I'll be fast forwarded those scenes in favor of watching the commercials for Skyrizi that Hulu plays every 5 minutes. Although I could watch Cody sniping at Drew all day! I have a hard time believing that even a hospital as questionable as GH would wake up a heavily sedated patient in severe pain and on heavy pain medication to ask them if they wanted to go to Baltimore or Germany.

I enjoyed the Tracy and Jason scenes but honestly it's too little too late. He's put Monica and the rest of his family through the wringer for years putting Carly and Sonny above them and keeping Michael away from them. It's pretty hollow for him to give a shit now that most of his family is gone and while Monica is still alive onscreen, we know that LC is no longer with us. He watched his mother swallow her pride and eat all manner of bullshit sandwiches just to spend a little time with her son and grandson so Jason would need to do some real soul-searching and perhaps throw Carly into an active volcano before I'd believe his about face or even care about it. Is Sasha planning on moving out the Quartermaine's and into a glass house? Because damn girl, watch where you're throwing those stones! Joss, please stop acting like you're fit to even dry clean Olivia Benson's sensible pantsuits. Look out, spoiled brat detective is on the case, she'll whine and stomp her feet until you confess to anything just to get her to shut up and stop screeching! Also, Dex was not a compelling character when he was alive and death hasn't made him more interesting, so honestly no one cares Joss. I'm glad Anna didn't give her a pass on her stupidity. Speaking of non-compelling characters and spoiled brats, Lulu just let Charlotte go! She can send you the occasional coded postcard of horseys that she's speaking French to and leave it at that. I'm glad Tracy told Lulu that she wouldn't be funding her dumb mission to find Charlotte until she had some real leads. I wish they'd left her in the damn coma if all she's going to do is yell and whine about Charlotte. Nina slamming the door in Drew's face was gold! I wish all characters would greet him like this.

Was I supposed to be rooting for Joss or Willow in that scene? Because honestly I was hoping the elevator shaft would spring to life and swallow them both. I know Drew has the self-awareness of a garden gnome, but even then he should have realized that absolutely no one would have wanted his trifling ass at the hospital. Carly with all her money and all her marriages really only has the power to take children away from their parents. Yes Willow is gross and banged Drew but that doesn't mean she's a bad mother to Whylie and the other one. I mean it's not like she's putting them in danger by marrying into the mob or anything! Michael would not be anywhere close to consciousness. He's intubated and allegedly has 3rd degree burns so he would be heavily sedated and would want to be. Whatever transportation Sonny is using to leave the hospital, I hope to Odin that it's not a limo and that he's not offering Carly a ride home. Please let it be a bus, at least then if they had a grief hookup it would be as gross as they are.

Has it never occurred to Laura or DeLulu that while yes, it's dangerous for Charlotte to be on the run with Valentin because of the people after him, she's probably still safer with him since he knows who he's running from and how to evade them? She'd be one hell of an easy target for someone to nab in order to draw Valentin out if she's living a normal life in PC. They would have to have her under 24-hour guard which would also not be a fun life for a teenager and our friends in Port Charles have a bad habit of not doing the best job of vetting staff. Brad is a mostly good man with terrible judgement and I'm glad he took that as a compliment! Can we give Willow and Drew the portmanteau name of Eww? Are they getting rid of the Wyndemere set so they brought in Sidwell to chew the whole damn thing up?
-
Sonny: I may need you to take over the business. Jason: I can't because there's a kid...what's his name...Don? Den? Oh right, Danny. Sonny: Someone else's kids are more important than mine??
-
Drew is smarmy enough to try the, “I banged your mom because I couldn’t have you!” route. *hand over heart* “I swear Willow, having a small part of you was better than having nothing at all!”. Prove it lesser Jason, grab a shovel and dig up Nelle!
-
I know doctors are supposed to be in the business of saving lives, but if you think of all the lives that could be saved by not saving Sonny, then Isaiah really should have just given him a pat on the head, a lollipop, and an "I'm sure it's nothing, you'll be fine". Run Charlotte, run far away and completely offscreen! And give Lulu a head injury so that she forgets all about her. Poor Dante, I'd be talking to doctors to see if they could give Sam's liver back at this point. This Cassadine money story is just mind-numbingly stupid. Drew and Willow are just ick. Good conversation between Michael and Sasha, but SM's accent was really trying to come out today and it was distracting. Overall I would have preferred an hour of watching Lucky and Liz doing investigating and Ric and Alexis sniping at each other.

Some friends of mine got paintings done by elephants on their honeymoon and they’re legit better than a lot of things I’ve seen people doing the squint, rub chin, and step back move to at art galleries and museums.

My RA in college would buy me booze for my parties. He had a legitimate ID on account that he actually was 21 and I had cash and a car so it was a win win situation! Of course we also had smoking floors and the top floor of the dorm was called Cocaine Alley so probably a much different college experience!
-
Well maybe not silver lining, possibly more like stainless steel lining, that if they were adding a "bad girl" to that age group they at least brought back a legacy character and not a new character who becomes someone's heretofore unknown/completely forgotten about daughter, niece, granddaughter, father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate, etc. Or God forbid another effing transplant from Bensonhurst.

Sometimes the shoehorning of historical characters into the narrative can be really cringey, but the Marquis de Lafayette can come hang out anytime. Really anyone that comes rolling in with cheese by way of apology is okay in my book. Claire fangirling over him was kind of hilarious, it’s like she’s meeting history’s rock stars. I don’t know if it’s nature vs. nurture but William definitely inherited some hero complex from both of his fathers. I missed having the adventures of Roger and Buck this week. Buck has really grown on me as a character and he’s more interesting than Bree (who for a supposedly great shot did a terrible job with that this week).

LOL at Jason giving Carly the "it wasn't my secret to tell" treatment! Carly and Nina both need to take a few steps back and realize their children are adults. However, if it gets more scenes of Ava making herself drinks and being the peanut gallery then I'm okay with it. Aww Liz and two of her kids together for the holidays. And hey Lucky, remember when both of those kids called you dad? Also Lucky and Ric posturing on who was better equipped to help Liz was good. I kinda hope we get an odd couple investigation with those two and hopefully it involves a caper where Ric throws Lucky into the GH showers. I wouldn't trust Drew, Curtis or Michael to run a company. Even if the 3 of them merged together like 3 raccoons under a trench coat they still wouldn't make up one competent business person. Jordan gives good stinkeye, they should have her do it more often. Lulu, this time of year it's especially frowned upon to look a gift horse in the mouth, so quit looking at Charlotte's absence as a bad thing and something you need to remedy.

Who gave Drew a clip show of sordid Quartermaine deeds that happened long ago? He's just even more pathetic with this deflection. "Well I may have slept with Willow, but you did this one horrible thing around the time Pac-Man was invented..." JE is the best, loved her joyous expression and how she just kicked everyone out so she could hang with Lulu. But I can do without the Luke worship. I like the Lucky and Liz wingman dynamic and that he stayed for her meeting with Portia and that Portia wasn't a bitch about it. I hope we're gearing up for an L&L2 detective story (and fine, I know they'll involve Jason somehow, but hopefully he's on the sidelines a bit) Ugh Carly and her smug smugging. Glad Michael wasn't having it and LOL did someone really just text Carly that her daughter's boyfriend was dead?? Also had to laugh when Michael asked Ned if he'd seen Sasha. I mean he's eating a bag of storebought cookies Michael, so clearly he hasn't! Drew stop stalking Willow. It's gross.

Agreed, I've thought the world of JK as an actor since I was 8 and China Beach was my favorite show and my parent's questionable parenting aside, JK really deserves to be on a better show than this.
