  1. We know that's not going to happen... In yesterday's episode, when Willow walked in the door of the Quartermaine house, she told Michael that she had gone to check on the kids. Were the two little children in the gatehouse alone? Great mother there. Hope that the gatehouse has a nanny cam too at least. DZ and NLG have both been knocking their scenes out of the park. Special kudos to NLG for being willing to do these scenes with out makeup to show how badly Alexis is taking this.
  2. As much as I hate Sasha being Robert's daughter, I like this new, strong Sasha who is trying to play Sidwell. Carly to Brennan; "You care about me." Yes Carly, because when Sasha is kidnapped and in danger, the important thing is that the men around you care about you. And then she goes to interfere in Lucas' life. The narcissism never stops with her. Portia; "When the results come back, I pray that Sam didn't die from surgeon error." [Meanwhile, I'm going to make Lucas feel like crap.] As the only Black couple on the show, it's a shame that Portia and Curtis are such fast forward material. I suspect that seeing how ugly and hurtful it is could make people less likely to do it in real life. Most parents don't want to deliberately hurt their children, it comes as a byproduct of the anger at their partner.
  3. It's soapy, but Sasha has lost her grandmother, her baby, her husband and been cheated by her mother-in-law. Then she found out that the guy she's in love with is her cousin, and slept with Michael. Hasn't Sahsa suffered enough? I wish that I could give this a score of likes. It's a tough choice. Drew is more foul this month but Michael has been awful for years now.
  4. Even if Willow had her fingers crossed behind her back when she married Chase, it still counts as a marriage. Chase did not deserve to have her cheat on him. Between Michael sleeping with Sasha as soon has he heard that Willow kissed Drew (horrors!) and then having sex with Willow, and Willow angry at Sasha because she wants to make her marriage work and then running to "comfort" Drew, Michael and Willow truly deserve each other. It's a tricky situation because it's likely (hopefully?) Willow would be horrified to have designs on a man that her mother is in a relationship with. It's bad enough that she's having an adulterous emotional affair, to hear that she's having feelings for a man that her mother is involved with should make her feel even worse. Although maybe not, this is Willow after all. I agree, the start of the Drew/Nina affair had so much potential to be something good, an enemies-to-collaborateurs-to-something. They had the sparkly sparring that was Robert/Anna and Robert/Holly in the old days and which no couple seems to have now. I cannot agree with the writers' decision to ruin that for this grossness.
  5. Pillow talk with Holly? LOL at Scout wondering who is going to make her sandwiches and take her to school now. That says it all about Drew's hands'on [not] parenting. When Scout drew a picture of Sam taking her, Danny and Rocco to the park, I wondered 'What do two teenage boys do at the park with their mother?' Maybe it was Scout's fantasy and the start of art therapy around her mother's death. That is how the hospital returned my mother's wedding ring to me. It seems icky but safer than in an envelope that could fall open.
  6. I really enjoyed Sasha truth-telling Willow that it's her fault that she's in this situation. So of course she goes straight to Drew.. Good thing the episode ended with Sasha's abduction because otherwise there was no reason to tune in tomorrow.. "Domesticity is not my strong suit." No Holly, responsibility is not your strong suit. Domestic talents can be hired. He may forgive her but after this latest "reveal", there is no way that Robert should take Holly back. Poor Robert, he deserves better than Holly or Diane. Molly: "Kristina's in the chapel. She asked me if you needed anything and I told her that you didn't. I didn't tell her that what you needed most was to have her here." What. A. Bitch. Her sister just died, her mother is mourning but she still needs to play the superior card. Both Drew and Jason were all too happy to let Carly take care of Scout and Danny. Poor kids. It's a good thought but unfortunately Hallmark has a large roster of women in her age group making one or two movies a year. They really need to increase the twenty-something group. As for GAF, I find their movies too hard to swallow.
  7. I don't blame Sasha for telling Cody what Willow had told her. It was an impossible situation for Sasha, who had been in a relationship with Michael and still cared about him. Willow should not have asked her to keep the secret. And as @dubbel zout said, it's generally understood that partners tell each other everything. And while Sasha feels terrible about what she did, she's not the adulterer, Michael is. He's been okay at time but he also manipulated Georgie to be a brat to Austin because he wanted to break up Maxie's relationship with Austin so i don't consider him in the Mac category.j
  8. Alexis said that she has to tell Danny and Scout, and Kristina and Danny. Jason offered to tell the kids and she gratefully accept. Crossing oneself is a Catholic think to do. (I like how Murdoch Mysteries makes a point of it.) I find it hard to believe that Laura is Catholic.
  9. Insult to injury to Kelly, making her lie there as everyone weeps over her. Poor Kelly. Hard to know who is the worse parent -- Holly who had the flimsiest and most selfish reason for not telling Robert about Sasha (ey, maybe Sasha would have liked to grow up having a father), and Drew who sits there with Carly looking stunned while his daughter is hearing that she just lost her mother from Jason. Who'd have thought that Spinelli would win the good parent prize in this episode. Also on loathsome people, Kristina is a flake but Molly just can't stop bashing her over the head with her superiority. Hey, Sam would have appreciated what both of you did. Dishonourable mention goes to Portia who just says "we will investigate" when if Trina had died, she would have been tearing down the walls.
  10. There was quite a bit on Twitter. To push to keep Kelly was trending for a few days on my on my timeline. That was an interesting reel of old scenes. What struck me most was that KeMo has changed all that much in the past 21 years. SBu on the other hand.... yeah, it's a double standard. I figured that Cody asked for $100,000 for a down payment on the ranch that he wants.
  11. Well that was depressing. (Aren't soaps supposed to be enteraining and fun?) I thought that i was going to throw up as Michael forgave Willow for kissing Drew, straight back from banging Willow. (I hope he at least showered before sex with Willow in the living room.) On a good show, there would be fallout for him but this is TFGH and he's Carly's spawn.
  12. But that would mean that Willow would have some sort of excuse and the show can't have that -- the entitled man child must be the only one right. Talk about over-reacting to hearing about a kiss, Mr. 'I banged my friend's wife and then stole her away' Add me to the list of those feeling sorry for Scout and Danny, stuck with deadbeat dads. Although come to think of it, Dante, Mac and Robert seem to be the only decent fathers on the show now that Finn and Gregory are gone and Taggart is apparently living under a bridge. Criminal Sonny doesn't count.
  13. And scared of being an organ donor.😠
  14. I think that Sasha's mistake was that she doesn't understand how rich people invent or donate. There must be a Quartermaine foundation, maybe more than one. She should have put together a proposal asking them to invest and taken that to Michael. Personally knowing him is not taking advantage it's how people in the Quartermaine world function.
  15. Parent and Child Day on GH: : Holly/Sasha, Mac/Cody, Nina/Willow, Laura/Lucky and the most fun, Tracy/Ned. They even dragged in Aiden because Lucky appeared. Holly, if you know that you're not mother material, you could have got your tubes tied and avoided all this. Temp Michael seems a good enough actor but he doesn't have the bone deep loathing for Nina that is a key to CD's performance. This Willow kissing Drew story seems to have fizzled out like a damp squib. He forgot that he forgot?
  16. I did not expect Cody to deck Drew in a blue collar tavern. I guess that's how Drew's run for office ends. If so, I'm pretty sure that Nina will get the blame. I understand why Cody feels that he can't win for losing. His childhood wasn't good, he's bad at cons, and now that he thinks he's found his place in the world, he loses the woman he loves. (I know enough cousins who have married, I'm not worried.) Oh the threat that Heather will be back! Of course she'll be back, Ric is still her lawyer in suing the company that made the hip. While it was nice to see Brennan shut Anna down, Brennan is so lying. For someone who appears close to her half-brother, Elizabeth didn't seem to have heard that he got out of prison.
  17. Heather is gone but the door is wide open for her to come back. Unlike poor Kelly. Heather killed Britt and Brando, wounded Diane and tried to kill Joss. For Portia to say that she is getting out because Trina is Black is a bad move by the writers. Could Cyrus kidnap him again? Asking for a friend.
  18. Friday's show: In the scene outside the prison, I realized that Liz married the half-bother of her half-brother, Franco.. And Sam of course was living with the son of her baby daddy, and then had two children from each of a set of twin brothers, following in her mother's footsteps who had two children from two half-brothers. Given all that, I honestly don't see the problem with Sasha dating her cousin. Heather: "Ever since Ace was a little boy, I've dreamed of ...." Heather, he's 1. He's still a little boy. Anna going to Alexis to ask if Valentin had contacted her surprised me. I miss the their relationship, two Casssadine outsiders. I like hate Diane less when she's reacting normally as she did in Robert's office today than her usual smug. Shallow note: I really like Anna's long narrow skirts. Unfortunately I don't have the body to wear them. I love that idea! I've been hating the idea that Sam offering to be an organ donor causes her death. I laughed out loud at that.
  19. Brennan to Carly: "If you have to ask, you're not as smart as I thought you were.: Oh sweetie, she really really isn't. Also not smart: Sonny thinking that he can move $100 million in diamonds before the person who owned them comes after him and Holly. Not smart #3: Carly to Brennan "Are you trying to recruit me?" Not smart #4: Curtis telling Steven Lars that Drew can get his medical license reinstated. Professional associations don't like people who try to do that. Not smart #5: Liz telling Lucas "Brad got his job back because Terry gave him a recommendation ... Brad needed a hand. You do the math." Yes Liz, the math is the hospital needed lab tech and Brad is good at his job and has tried to make amends. What more math do you need? Carly to Jason : Jack saved your life. That means I owe him. {unspoken: and I always get you to pay my debts.] It's really sad to see Sam/Kelly leaving. (and others like Heather, Natalia etc. staying.) I like to think that it's a symbol of being cuckholded. A few weeks ago when Tracy was telling her what a good chef she is, I briefly thought that Tracy was going to offer to help her get a catering company started. You know, if Portia had said that if Heather had been Black she wouldn't have been let out, I would have said yeah. But saying that Heather was let out because she went after a Black girl when she murdered Britt and Brando, both white (I forget who else she killed), just no. Ironically Vinessa Antoine is currently playing a cop on Plan B.
  20. Your heart wasn't thrilled when Dex wanted to kill Heather for Joss? On this show, that's Twu Luv. The size of a child's fist. Sure, show, sure. Surgeons are the alphas egos of the medical world. Lucas' aw shucks diffidence feels off. However, I can see Isaiah getting privileges at GH in the two days we're waiting for the transplant. A bright, shiny, never-used meat mallet. Maybe the kitchen came furnished. I know that they don't know what to do with Gio, but suggesting Trina put her feelings into music? Really, writers?
  21. This whole discussion of Lucas doing the transplant surgery is so insulting to me as a viewer. There is No Way that the medical association would let him do it unless there was no other doctor available. And we know that there is. Ditto all this handwringing about Heather being released. And now they're trying to make it a race thing. (Absolutely there are racial issues in America today but this shouldn't be one of them. It cheapens the actual issues.) In real life, the prosecution would have appealed and brought in all sort of psychiatric witnesses and evaluations. At the least she would be monitored. Can I hate Portia, Curtis and TJ any more? GH writers: Hold my beer. Nice scene between Robert and Anna. But please, don't make Sasha Robert's daughter for reals. Joss and Dex have moved from getting aroused by talking about Sonny to getting aroused by talking about Heather. Danger is their aphrodisiac.
  22. There would be two whole teams -- one to retrieve the organ and who stays with Sam to sew her up and make sure she's okay, and another team to put the organ into Lulu. When Sam asked Lucas to do the transplant, what he should have told her is that it is against AMA ethics to operate on a relative and he could lose his medical license. Same. And when she told Spinelli not to hack in illegally without her, it was Kelly talking to BA. Holly trying to accuse Anna of being just as bad as she is, and Anna replying that Robin was 5 and Sasha is a grown adult. I had to fast forward through Curtis' smug Ashford propping speech. He and portia are perfect for each other. Years ago, we would have six course meals for 8. Now that I have inherited my grandmother's and mother's china (same pattern), I could do it for 30 but who has the time and energy?
  23. My mother played tea party with all her granddaughters. I put away the tea set away when she died for them but i cannot get the girls to take it away. And as for the time needed to polish the silver teapot .... If Lila left the tea set to Tracy, she had every right to give it to Violet who seems to be obsessed with tea parties. Since Brook Lynn wasn't allowed to play with it as a child, she wouldn't have personal memories of it. There must be plenty of things that Lila left that Brook Lynn can keep in memory of her great grandmother. She can buy her own set of that particular china.
  24. You're right.🤦🏻‍♀️ (I try to forget Georgie as often as I can, she's got all Spinelli's worst traits.)
  25. I really enjoyed the Tracy/Laura scenes. Way to honour the show's history and write it well, and have two good actresses play it. I also liked Sasha going to Robert's office to ask for a DNA test. She's got twice the brains and morality of Holly. Maxie spoke for me today. KSt is looking good. I'm glad to know that Laura has a nanny for Ace. I hated the Davis coven scene. Both Molly and Kristina are awful now. The fighting appeals to the lowest feeling of the viewers. End this story now. I'm going to miss Violet. They should have kept her on the show and trot her out once ever four months or so. With Charlotte off screen, Scout is the only girl in the coming age group. Brook Lynn's baby will need to be SORASed a lot to date Rocco or Danny. I'll look for the actress on Will Trent. They really don't know what to do with Gio. Or Lois for that matter. Both of them could lift out and nothing would change.
