Wow, Victor was just horrifically vile toward Theresa today. I get that he doesn't like the girl, but that was neither the time nor the place and what he said was just so cruel. She went there to pay respects to Maggie. To attack her and slant it that she is the reason for her love to be in the hospital and another man to be dead. WTF?! Even for Victor that was awful. Why do they insist on making him such an asshole. This is not Victor being a bad-ass or a force to be reckoned with. This is misogynist Victor who feels power by degrading and berating young women he happens to dislike. That is is not a man of power, that's just being a prick. On the other hand, I am liking Jennifer so much more lately. She is being very kind and understanding to people and situations that others are having difficulty with. She and Eric have a chemistry I rather enjoy and I liked her visiting him today. She was so decent to Theresa in the park when she really needed a kind word said to her. I am liking Jennifer and JJ a lot lately, too bad she has that other one as a daughter... Speaking of, I kind of chuckled when Andre pointed out what a "great" mother Abs is...not even knowing who the father of her baby was. Andre is icky, but I'll give him that one! Also icky, when Chad told her to get dressed and he'd meet her, she only picked up that little dress she had...no undies. She probably wore it over to Chads place with no underwear on...in hopes of a little somethin'-somethin'. I like and I feel for Nicole, but she is starting to get to me with all the crying. I hope she will rally back someday. So I'm guessing Chloe will stay in Salem because Parker threw a fit about leaving. I'd still drag his little butt back to Chicago once the funeral is over and things calm down! But she probably won't. I could see her and Fynn hooking up eventually. Did nothing else happen after she saw Belle and Philip? The show always has these inconsistent scenes when you think something more will happen and it never does. (I'm still waiting for Patch and Adrienne to cross paths, it's been how many months?) But alas, with Chloe back in town, Victor will have yet another woman he can call a "bitch-whore-slut" I kind of liked the little scene yesterday between Chase and Claire. I think they would be an adorable pair. I think Theo is very handsome, and while the Ciara actress is very pretty and looks a lot like KA, she has very little chemistry with anyone. She almost seems kind of gruff and asexual, I could seriously see a story-line down the line of her coming out and realizing she is a lesbian. However, with Chase being such a One Direction fan... Oh wow, I know Eric did a bad thing and it needs to be addressed, but I felt for him at the end of today's show. He really is so very lost and tortured. It was sad seeing him crumble like that. Is it my imagination or is Daniel's death getting way more exposure and character reaction than Bo's death ever did? And don't even get me started on Stefano...All I can say is that someone with that much power and that many enemies...he didn't have any security cameras in his home? You would think there would be cameras somewhere revealing something!

While I liked the drama in the scene of Stefano's shooting, I feel this was also a flit of a demise for such a great character. Stefano/JM have been the Phoenix for decades it seems, he always survived rose again, did his evil deeds. Now it looks like he is dead for good. But we know how, by whom and it looks like they are going to dump his body somewhere. Flit. Gone. I wish they had put this murder off for a while in wake of the weekly demises on this show as of late. Daniel will be canonized into sainthood by the end of his funeral. Stefano, who has been around forever will get nothing. Just Hope and rafe covering it all up and hiding him. I don't see how Hope can come back from this, how she can be cleared. Sure she snapped, but she also shot and unarmed elderly man in cold blood. Stefano or no, those are the facts. And as much as I like Hope and I don't mind Rafe mostly, what they are doing is against the law. Salem's top cops are going rogue. I have watched them be bossy and sanctimonious to perps time and again on this show, and now they are about to become the greatest hypocrites of all. ...Well maybe Eric has them beat. I would have preferred to see a good, old fashioned "whodunnit" where Stefano's murder was concerned. Lord knows plenty of people have wanted him dead for ages, so many could have played part. Heck, they could have made Hope the shooter if they wanted. they could have brought Sami back for it, they could have even had EJ resurrected and found to be the killer. Maybe it would have been Andre. Who knows. The cops would be involved. Andre would drama-mourn his daddy, Chad would be conflicted, etc. It could have been great. And it would have been a great send off for Salem's ultimate villain and JM. I'm still not sure how this will ultimately play out, but I'm not too optimistic. Good for Nicole for speaking her mind. All the times Eric berated her with his sanctimony, he has truly done wrong. She had every reason to lash out at him. Poor Jen, she looks so rough right now, her daughter is too happy to care less, at least she has JJ. Ugh, Abby must be so giddy now that her life has come together so well. Who cares that her mother is injured and in mourning. Who cares that Daniel, who was a big part of their family for a while, is dead, who cares about the other murders and her crazy ex. She has Chad now and they are having sex. The baby can wait as long as she gets her sexy-time taken care of first... Don't really care about Philip and Belle, Chloe/NB continues to be one of the most beautiful women I have seen on a soap (jealous). I'm guessing Strawberry Shortcake will be back soon...

Ah, thanks. I had missed that little scene so I wasn't sure how she had gotten to work so quick after celebrating. Haha about the beer...I guess that one didn't count...?! I really liked today's show (minus the Chabby stuff), but a couple things stuck out to me in the inconsistency dept: It was noted that it was about 1:00am on New Year's eve/day and there were all sorts of people shopping, hanging out, dining, drinking coffee at the Salem Place. Isn't it a Mall? I even checked back and one of the shop doors was opened in a scene, to like a jewelry place. People were toting coffee cups around. families were ordering dinner. I could see maybe a restaurant staying open for drinks after midnight on New Year's, but not in mall. These were older people odering off a menu at 1:00am. The hell? Also, I know that Kayla and Fynn (that spelling bugs me) were trying to find out about a donor, but weren't they divulging a bit much to Maggie and Victor. Sure, Victor is Brady's grandfather, I can see that one more but Eric isn't related to either of them. Only Kayla, but as a doctor don't she and Fynn have to abide by HIPPA laws despite who these people are? I could see them saying that there are two viable patients in need and letting them figure out from there, but Kayla spilled all their medical info to them. I still think it was cruel to make grieving Maggie make a choice like that too. Only on a soap... My other thing was that whole Abby scene with Chad. If it was 1:00am on New Year's, why couldn't she bug him in the morning, say 8:00 or 9:00 am? Did she have to leave her child at the hospital at that time? She could have easily called him too, if it were so dire. Jennifer mentioned that Thomas was doing OK when she left to get him things at home (a responsible parental thing), but Abby left to pester Chad yet again. And all the yelling at his room and outside his door at that hour? I would have called the cops on them anyway. Then she makes a stop by Salem Place to look at stuff instead of going to the hospital or going home to rest up for her child. Priorities... This baby is merely a plot point and nothing more. Too bad he was named after Tom Horton...

I was thinking the exact same thing. As much as we see Brady without a shirt on (and I'm not complaining, he is fine!), we are not going to see a scar on that finely sculpted chest,. Maybe for a scene or two but not long-term. Same would be said for Eric no doubt. Was Kayla on-call or something? One minute she is dressed up and in the park with Steve, the next she is in scrubs and a lab coat working in the hospital. It wasn't that much later either because Nicole was still at the party.

Well, today's episode was the most incredibly depressing New Year's episode in soap history! Yet, i was still captivated by it. A lot of good acting involved. The impending death of Daniel is kind of bumming me out and I was never even a huge fan of his. I just feel like this happens with soap characters every so often. One becomes the focal point for a soap for a good stretch of time, has ties with everyone, gets crammed down our throat daily, and we are told how wonderful they are...then...a new writing regime comes in and kills them off abruptly. Most sincerely dead usually too. I guess I feel bummed more from all the characters tied to him. They spent so much time in recent years tying him him into key families, giving him a notable mother and child on canvas, giving him notable love interests, and now he is done. So goes the life of a soap hero... Poor Nicole, poor Maggie. Not sure how they will recover from this. The scene with the phone calls was pretty heavy. So many lives changed in that one moment. JJ is a good son. I don't care what Jennifer say/thinks, he is the one who is there for her. Gah, even after Abby's desperate and humiliating plea to Chad (her begging, ugh), she still had time to stop by the Mall in Salem to look at Teddy Bears than to go back to the hospital to tend to her very sick baby. Even after JJ's phone call, she wasn't hauling ass to get to the hospital. Just strolling along. I did kind of chuckle that the hospital called JJ over Jennifer and nobody called Abby until he did. They know who will go to his mother first ;) Actually on top of being icky, the Abby/Chad scenes felt out of place in today's episode. It should have been all about the accident and the people's lives involved with the victims. Sure Jennifer is Abby's mother, but she wasn't engaging in that part of things. As usual, it was all about Chad with her... I was glad that John and Theresa were able to comfort each other over Brady and put him before any past differences they had. Jenn Lilley continues to act realistically, including drippy nose issues! Oh Eric, you have really done it this time. I wonder if they will somehow explain away his recent issues to a medical condition nobody knew he had. So Maggie has to make a Sophie's Choice decision over who gets Daniel's heart. That seems sort of a cruel thing to make her do, especially since she knows both men and is close with them. Shouldn't the doctors asses both patients and advise her as to which would be the better candidate? They know she is already in mourning over her son, how is she supposed to decide which one of these two gets Daniel's heart? Of course it will most likely be Brady. He is her husband's grandson who lived with them for ages. He is a new father as well. And once they find out Eric caused the accident that put them all there and ultimately killed Daniel, he wouldn't be the choice likely made. Plus Eric will probably go to jail for drunk driving/vehicular manslaughter, Daniel's heart would be wasted in jail. I wonder if Eric will eventually die as well or even choose to after finding out what he has done. Days is keeping my interest, but is pretty depressing. I'm guessing Strawberry Shortcake will be making a return before long now... Happy New Year to my forum friends!

Bahahahaha! I think I wouldn't mind Abby as much these days if they didn't keep saying what a wonderful person she is. If they portrayed her as being known as a hypocrite, liar, snob, cheater, etc. I would accept it more. But apparently she is kind and sweet and loving. Not translating. She needs to actually be around her baby instead of chasing Chad. Even to tell him he's the dad...call him! Or have someone you know he would pick up the phone for call. Stay at the hospital with you sick child. Stay put with him for more that a New York minute! Happy New Year to my Forum friends!

If I had been Marlena, I would have thrown Abby out of her house. Coming in and blaming Marlena for whatever happened to Chad. "What did you do to him? He was fine before he saw you, etc". Move bitch, get out the way! I wouldn't have explained or told her anything at that point. She was rude and snippy. I sometimes think it's KM's delivery that makes it sound even more harsh. She always sounds, snippy and bratty and bitchy. Her expressions convey it too. She does not come off as soft or kind or sweet. Though that's what we are told of her. Take for example, the actress playing Claire and give her the same lines. She speaks sweet and looks kind. It would probably come off differently. KM, not so much. To mr, at this point, Chad just wouldn't be worth it. if a guy treated me like that again and again as he has lately, I'd say, to hell with him ...even if my heart (or in her case, her vajayjay) had to catch up with my brains. I would want to save face and have a little pride. She is just seeming clingy and obsessed. Concentrate on the baby...say, where the hell is her baby right now?

Merry Christmas everyone! This week's holiday shows have brought both good and not-so-good to the plate. The good: -I love how the Horton's took Chase into their family. The actor playing him is good, he always looks like a lost sad puppy who needs a hug desperately. I dig it though, makes him someone you want to root for. I want to see him and Claire together. -The Horton Tree decorating is always special. I look for that episode every year. It's actually a cool idea in real life to have an ornament for each family member. -Justin looks hot these days. Actually many vets are looking amazing: Kayla, Adrienne, Steve, Bo (while he was there) and Hope always looks good. -Nu-Ciara isn't a great actress, but I like her alright. And she looks so much like Hope/KA. Haha, they are both fans of leather pants, it seems. -Hope killed it in the Horton Square sing-along scenes. She looked so heartbroken and in emotional pain. Not a word was said, but her face said it all. -Love the patch/Kayla reunion so much! The not-so good: -I'm not sure if it is the writing or how KM plays it out, but Abby just seems like her priorities are all out of whack. The only thing she seems to care about is how Chad dumped her. I could understand it more if it was just the final straw after everything and that's why she was upset, but it doesn't seem that way. She seemed fine with everything else until Chad dumped her ass. She isn't fretting over the abduction, or how she was engaged to a killer and think she has a kid with him (she seems to have forgotten Ben completely, clearly never loved him). That is all water under the bridge. But OMG...Chad doesn't want her! She was wallowing in a corner at the Horton Tree decorating about Chad, yet people like Will and hope/Ciara were truly mourning losses. She doesn't seemed to involved with her new baby, the baby that could have died in that cabin, the baby who was celebrating his First Christmas. Shouldn't she be celebrating him? I wouldn't be surprised if she resents him for being the "reason" Chad doesn't want to be with her. After all, priorities. And her's is clearly this man and this man alone... -Not feeling this Ava stuff. I don't want to see her ruin what Patch and Kayla have, -They had better not make Chase Theo's bully! -I want to see Theresa wipe the floor with several people and not take their crap!

Wow, Ben is starting to get really interesting now. Sadly, I think his deeds have pushed him past the point of no return. i don't see how they could redeem him from this. Though I kind of want to see it happen. Who knew that Rob Wilson had it in him?! He has really stepped up with the crazy/evil stuff! Abigail/KM...not so much. I am usually mostly indifferent to her (and occasionally annoyed), but I really haven't like how she has played her scenes lately. I think she is supposed to be panic stricken, exhausted and driven. But it has been coming off more as annoyed, snooty and bitchy. She really seems like this stuck up little brat sometimes, yet is always described as kind and loving, etc. It doesn't translate. I also feel like they are shifting the blame off her regarding Ben's mental collapse. It all began as a result of his desperation over losing her and her repeated infidelity. Then he did a bunch of crazy stuff and ultimately turned on her once he realized what he became. But now...Now it is shifting to his childhood trauma with his father and the guilt she is feeling has to do with not getting him help when she realized he was off...not the guilt that her serial cheating drove him over the brink. I noticed she didn't bring that part up to Roman and gang in the police station. Hope is such a badass. She can take on any dude and kick his ass! I love a female character who has the power to get herself out of a scrape! I hope she gets the upper hand with the Dr again tomorrow. OK I really like nu-Chase. I feel for him. I want to see where he and Ciara might go. Right now, she clearly isn't having it. I think she might like Theo a little. I'm wondering when Claire will work into this group and if she and Chase will connect.

Oh no, what I had meant was that of the most recent group of teens on the show, most of them are already related to each other so that they don't have many options for romantic pairings. Most of the teen set are cousins, etc via their Brady/Horton/Johnson family connections. The only teens that aren't related to them for romantic pairings are Chase, Gabi and Theo. They have family there, but their families aren't related to the others.

Oh yeah, we have Theo too. So non relative young Folks: Chase, Gabi, Theo. Related somehow: Claire (Horton Brady), Joey (Brady Johnson), JJ (Horton Johnson), Ciara (Brady Horton). Yeah, they are all tied in somehow... If they add in one more non-Brady/Horton/Johnson, they might be able to give them all someone, there just isn't much room to mingle and see who the best fit is. I add Gabi to the mix only because they seem to be chem testing her with JJ. She is actually more the age of Chad, Abby, Ben, Melanie, Sonny, and the late Will and Nick. I feel like the last young set before them: Belle, Brady, Chloe, Mimi, Phillip, Shawn, etc, there was more room to test who had the best chem. There were a couple related, but most of them weren't. It's kind of how most of the young folks on GH are all Sonny's spawn, not much you can do from there...

I uderstand Victor's grief, but what was his beef with Eve? I know he hates Theresa because of Brady and the drama they have had, but Eve hasn't done anything to him. When CR played Eve it was long ago and she was a kid/young woman. I don't recall any drama between her and Victor. Since she has been back, hasn't she lived her life separate from him too? I don't get it. He was just being mean to be mean. I understand his grief over losing his son, but did he stop to think that this was the first major holiday Eve has had since losing her daughter Paige. Her only child. I'm glad he admitted to being an ass, but he was rude to her and it sounds like he was rude to Theresa too. The Brady family dinner was bittersweet, sad but family oriented. I like Claire so far, wondering if she will be paired with Chase. They have a bigger younger set now, however most all of them are related. Most are Horton/Brady/Johnson hybrids. Chase and Gabi are about the only non related ones in that mix to pair any of them up with. I'm not overly fond of Abby, but damn I am feeling bad for her now. What a shitty cruel situation. Has Ben given any thought to how long he can treat her and the baby like this, yuck! Happy Thanksgiving all!

Not a big Abby fan, but I was feeling bad for her situation. That being said, I have no sympathy for just plain stupid. Abby my dear, just text "Smith Island, Help" to Chad, he'll come running and find you. Abby had the phone, was able to send a text and decided to compose a novel to Chad. Of course she is interrupted by intense pain and exposes that she has the phone. I can't. I just shut it off after that, The Bo scenes were breaking my heart. I admittedly shut it off half way through and will watch the DVR parts I want to see later. Between the sadness of Bo and Abby's stupidity, I couldn't watch it real time anymore. I kept hoping Bo would wake up but I realized it wasn't going to happen and gave up.

Wow. I knew this was coming, but did not expect it so soon. I was thinking they would give us a few weeks, maybe Bo would make it through Christmas anyway. He literally came back to town to die. It happened the next day (according to the show). That being said, the acting, the scenes and PR/KA and SN/MBE were phenomenal today. Just wow. The fallout is going to be so sad, I don't know if I can watch it all through. Everyone just welcomed him back, most didn't know he was sick, so they won't be expecting this. Hell, I wasn't expecting this. I hate that they have made Bo's fate so final...and so quick. If he was going to be gone so fast, why didn't they put Aidan on hold for a time and then bring him back. Is Hope going to end up with Rafe now?...ugh... I don't understand why it had to be told as if it happened in 24 hours, Days time. In a way, that made the time frame and finality of it all seem worse. These scenes could have easily played out as if several days (or a couple weeks) as it actually was. To think that in 24 hours: Hope married one man, had sex with him, nearly got killed by him, had her presumed MIA ex-husband re-appear and save her from the brink of death and kill Aidan, be hospitalized overnight, suffer a mini-breakdown, fall in love with her ex again, have sex with him, go to his surprise party, find out he's dying, plant a tree, declare her love, and have him die in her arms!?! ...Poor Hope, she is having the shittiest week ever and it's only been a couple days! I honestly don't know how she is going to recover from all of this. The Aidan stuff was bad enough, but I think Bo's return was helping her through, to have him be gone so suddenly is just cruel. I don't think I could handle two heartbreaks and two deaths in two days like she has had to go through! That being said, it was awesome having Peter Reckell back and I wish it could have lasted. I am so sad that Bo is gone. He was a great character with so much history with this show. I really wish it didn't have to end. Rest in peace, Bo Brady, you will truly be missed.

Is Bo's story line similar to how they had Lexie die? I was half watching back then, but it was the first thing that came to mind when they revealed Bo's condition. I don't dislike the new Ciara, mainly because she looks like she could be the daughter of Bo and Hope. Her face reminds me a lot of a younger Hope/KA with a little Bo/PR thrown in. I think she is just a little rusty and stiff right now and I hope she works it out with time and works as the new Ciara. I also think the casting of the actor playing Joey is a good combination of a Steve/Kayla child. He looks like Kayla/MBE mostly with a little Steve/SN thrown in. I love when they cast actors who look like they could be related. GH was good at this years ago with Jonathan Jackson playing Genie Francis son Lucky Spencer, and with the Quartermaine brothers. Good acting on today's show

Are Abby's ankles tied to the chair legs or is she just to stupid to get up from the chair and run? At first I thought that was the case and that she was just sitting there like a guy with her legs open, but then I figured she must have each ankle tied to each chair leg. My question: did she just submissively sit there and let him tie her up one leg at a time? Why the hell didn't she kick at him or punch him in the head with her secured hands? I hate a weak woman on a soap opera. I hate it when women are portrayed so weak and unable to fight for themselves, waiting for a man to save them.. I vaguely remember someone going after Jen and Nicole I think a while back (was it Jen's stalker guy?). It was one guy and two of them. Then Daniel showed up and fought him off while they stood back and screamed and simpered. One guy could take him on but two women couldn't beat the crap out of one guy?! Annoying. I like that Hope was at least a fighter until Aidan caused her to go unconscious. Otherwise she would have kept fighting, that's just how Hope is. It does bug me a little that she got knocked out and Bo had to be the one to finish him off though. A woman can never do it all by herself. Why hasn't Abby tried to fake out Ben and find things to break free with. He seems to leave her alone plenty, she could bide her time and do something when he heads back to get food or something. But nooo, she does it all wrong. She cries for him to stay and not leave her. Hasn't she figured out that if he doesn't leave he will keep her there tied up? He's not going to change his mind. I'm guessing she will stay there a damsel in distress and Chad will be her hero saving her from Ben. Maybe Ben will end up dead, maybe he'll join his daddy in prison. Ben is too pretty for prison, he'll end up being somebody's bitch. But now that Abby is feeling distress with the baby, she will be even more helpless and in need of saving.

Well, I'm guessing Abby is going to figure out that Ben is the killer soon. He is going off the deep end, he is going to reveal himself at this rate. He actually is playing scary quite well, I keep fearing he is going to hit her or something. I don't like like guys being abusive or domineering toward woman (obviously). Damn though, Abby is being so dumb in this moment. I think she could have avoided a lot of this impending craziness and got herself out of there before it escalated. She could have lied that she saw the pictures. When he got in the shower, she could have left instead of having this conversation about his unstable ass right within earshot of his unstable ass! It doesn't give him a free pass to be abusive, and I hope he doesn't hurt her. I just hate seeing a woman being portrayed as being dumb. Hope she gets herself out of that moment without having to be rescued by a man. Some outfits were nice at the event, some were hideous. Actually, the men all looked quite dashing in their suits. Some of the dresses were nice, but the hair was pretty bad with some characters/actresses. WTF with Adrienne's matronly wig? A lot of the actresses have nice hair that could have been styled in a retro manner without a crazy wig. Why didn't any guys have big hair or hippie hair or sideburns then? Still think it is odd to plan a wedding the same night and place as a town celebration. It takes away from both events actually, especially the bi-centennial. And really, in Salem, are we to believe that every person there knows the Hortons/Hope? Maybe some wanted to come for the celebration party and not the wedding? I know in my home town, when they had their big 350th celebration, had two people even from a known family decided to have their wedding then and there, some people would have been like "who the hell are these two anyway?" I'm sure somebody in Salem doesn't know Hope or the Hortons and therefore doesn't give a Sh*t.

Abby was channeling Beetlejuice with that dress on Friday. Her baby bump sure grew fast. That's gotta be an alien in there! So am I to assume that since Chase is suddenly a teen that Ciara will be now too? Such a shame, that little actress is great and has awesome mother/daughter chemistry with KA. Patch and Bo were great together. I still wish Patch and Adrienne will have a scene together soon. And why do they dress Adrienne so dowdy? Still chuckling over Nicole and Dan's bizarro dance number the other day. Whhh...why?! The other day when Abby was "crying" over Chad in the hospital. "Did you do all these things because of me? Because I'm just that wonderful that men flip their lid and kill for me?" If she thinks that of herself anyway, maybe she needs to look Ben's way since he clearly has lost it because of her. I think Rafe is onto him finally. Speaking of Rafe...I have actually kind of liked him lately. I like him flirting with new cop. He almost seemed kind of cute in those scenes. I don't usually find him cute either. Maybe he is slowly winning me over. I like JJ and his new independent thinking. Hope he does become a cop, and I like the idea of him and Gabi.

True, and I'm actually really glad she didn't speak for two reasons. One because so much of the show tends to be about her in some way or another these days, no doubt her speech would have been self-serving and added to that. And Second, because of Sami. I'm sure the last thing she needed in that moment is the woman who blew apart her relationship with EJ standing in front of her speaking. Stay seated and quiet Abby! I agree with this so much. She does not come off as being sweet or kind or these other things we are told she is. She seems more of a snob than anything else. I feel like Abby gets a free pass on so much and that's why I don't like her. Her thing with EJ was 50% her fault ( the other 50% being EJ) and yet Sami was made a villain for calling her out on it. And frankly, I never forgot the crap she pulled with Austin when she was younger. She was a liar, a manipulator and just plain crazy. And once again a free pass.

I do have to admit that there were scenes that brought me to tears today. Sami and Kate's embrace, Lucas, the speeches made my both Sami and Sonny got to me. When Sami broke down in Eric's arms, Kayla telling Caroline, and Sonny losing it at the end. OK I guess I teared up a lot. It always gets me when actors/characters show real tears in crying scenes. There was a lot of that today. Oh,and Lucas and Sami placing the flower on Will's casket also hit me hard. Sonny's last scene was very emotional with tears dripping onto the new grave from his face. Where the hell were his parents at? Especially Adrienne as she was also close to Lucas as well as her son's husband was being buried. What the hell? Justin and Adrienne as well as various Hortons/Bradys not being there seemed odd. Ugh, wasn't happy about the throwaway scenes with Ben and Abby. Just stay seated and shut up. Both of you. The Andre scene bugged me as well. Such a creepy dude, and Roman's "punch" was laughable. Ali Sweeney really has brought it in her scenes since she returned. I prefer her more subdued but pained mourning over Eve's constant wailing. But I guess everyone mourns differently. The Steve/Kayla kiss showed me that they still have chemistry all these years later. I'll always have a soft spot for those two together! Hope's hair looked sublime today too. :)

He was on today's episode, but not back in Salem yet. Victor called him and told him to get back, that he was sending his plane for him. This is actually a big character to kill off and I'm kind of sad about it. Whether or not people liked the character or the actor who played him, Will had ties with practically everyone on this show. He is a legacy character in several ways over. The child of a Horton and a Brady. Married to a Kiriakis whose mother is a Johnson. He was related to or in-laws with every major family, and friends or tied in with the ones he wasn't (friends with Chad, had a baby with Gabby). I feel like practically everyone on canvas will mourn for Will in a big way. Except for creepy Ben of course. Not a fan of Abby, but when she finds out that not only is Ben a killer framing Chad, but that he killed her cousin whom she loved dearly, she will be a mess. I wasn't always a fan of Will, heck I felt annoyed by him a lot of the time, but he was a staple to Days due to all of his ties. I actually liked Will the last couple of episodes he was on, seemed more kind and sensitive to everything, wish they had played him more that ways right along. And with GW losing his voice in those final episodes, he just seemed more vulnerable for some reason. It really made no sense for Ben to kill him. I don't think Will was even suspecting him until he kept getting angrier and weirder for no reason. It's like he just wanted to go off and kill anybody in that moment who didn't say exactly the right thing and Will was just the unlucky party. Nice way to treat your best man, Ben. What a creeper. Lucas broke my heart today, so did Marlena. I can imagine Sonny and Sami will too. Even Hope and Rafe tugged at my heart strings a little today. RIP Will Horton.

They are Quartermaines. And sadly, in this day and age on GH, the Q's do not matter. The only reason AJ or Ned have any children at all is because they were conceived in the 1990's and that was the last time the Q's got any focus really. After that, Jason became "Jason Morgan the Borg" and Sonny ruled everything else and those two characters, along with Carly ate up the rest of the show...and apparently still do...

Thank you all for the info on Michael and his re-born Sonny love. I hate that so much, how awful. makes me glad I quit watching. Seriously, I have barely seen a half dozen episodes since they unceremoniously dropped my beloved Sean Kanan and senselessly killed AJ off a year after resurrecting him. WTF show?! And shame on Michael for falling back into his Sonny-loving ways. That's just wrong. Heh that he knocked up Sabrina. Awww, AJ gonna be a grandfather! I wish he were here to react to it. Wow, and Monica a great-grandmother. They probably wont bother to even let her acknowledge such things. It'll be all about Sonny and Carly and their reactions no doubt. Yeah, technically AJ could have all sorts of kids out there, They always implied that he got laid plenty in his younger years. Also, he was MIA in Europe for like seven years. I'm sure he got some action there. He could have some exotic ex-lover with a child out there for sure. Nikki and AJ weren't actually related. AJ and Dawn shared the same mother, but Nikki and Dawn had the same father with different mothers. They were connected by plenty of ties that way, but not blood-related. I know they were intimate back in the day and almost got married, but we have yet to see a love child from that union resurface. In my mind, AJ is alive and out there and he probably has more kids than Sonny :)

I would be very cool with that. Either a child with Nikki, as an above poster mentioned, or a child with Keisha Ward. He already has a son, let this be a Q daughter, snarky and determined. I'm still holding onto hope that AJ is back at mystery hospital in Switzerland, alive and recovering so that he can return stronger than ever. Hell, maybe he is working for the WSB now in training. Maybe he and Robin hooked up and are together, to return to PC someday. So many options and so many reasons they shouldn't have "killed" him off again (I refuse to believe he's gone for good). Hell, Sean Kanan isn't on B&B that much, new writers should offer him the moon and stars for a return. I wouldn't blame him for steering clear after the way he was treated last time. I would still love to see him back there though. Either way, I want the character back. Haven't watched the show in many months. Is it true that Michael is on team-Sonny again?? What? How? How did he forgive him for killing AJ? What happened? Is Michael with Sabrina now? Are they sleeping together? What's the deal with them too? Is he still at the Q mansion?

Ha! I was actually coming here to write this exact same thing! Seriously, if he hates Chad so much and is getting so jealous because his ho-bag fiancee keeps sniffing around Chad all the time, why not just clear him out of the picture?! He barely knew Paige, didn't know Serena at all, and seemed to like Marlena. Why want to kill them. Meanwhile, after each attack, Abby becomes more defensive over Chad, sneaks around to see Cad more, etc. Not really solving the issue here by adding more victims to the list. Don't get me wrong, I like Chad and want to keep him alive, but Ben's approach to getting Chad out of the way makes no sense really... Why would he want Abby anyway? She cheated on him bigtime and he knows it and still wants her! She seems kind of cold and selfish, she isn't that sweet. I was actually looking forward to the day he confronted her on her cheating and wanted to see her squirm. But noooo, it'll never happen or it won't matter if it does, because he's the "big bad" now. Poor Jordan, her family is a hot mess really. Dan seemed creepy at the end. Wouldn't it have been awesome if they gave us the ultimate fake-out and he ended up being the killer?! Would never happen though. I remember when Paige first came on, I wondered if she would end up being Rafe's long-lost daughter from a fling with Eve. Never thought he'd be her brother. I can see it. Kind of wish we had scenes with her and her siblings. Good to see A Martinez back on TV. Jen is looking nice lately, far less frumpy. Still waiting for a Steve and Adrienne scene. Wish they would bring back Jack. I like the scenes with Nicole, Theresa and Kate. More woman-power! Hope they work together.
