    I haven't watched today yet, did the show get preempted at all for national news?

    The 3 p.m showing was find. But the show will be preempted on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday for the MLB wild card games.

    Ugh. Since my Yankees were eliminated from post-season play a week ago, I'd really rather watch GH, which is really saying something.

    That was an excellently adult conversation that Kevin and Laura had. I am going to miss the scab writers.

    Wasn't it though? I was thinking the exact same thing! We usually get about two or three of those conversations yearly on GH.

    I am sure they are also running low on Molly accessories, such as "Kristina must be treated like she is the Devil," advanced setting, "But the whole world should care that I want to have a babeeee" default setting, an Alexis doll that says nothing but "Molly, you're perfect," and a boyfriend doll that just says "yes Molly, no Molly."  These have been heavily used by the previous Mollys.

    To quote Larry the Cable Guy: "That right there is funny, I don't care who ya are."🤣😂

    ETA: Barbie never had so many high-quality accessories.

    Pretty sure by next month I will be playing Molly. 

    It's a distinct possibility you will be.  The NuMolly Store must be running low on stock by now, and they clearly can't re-purpose the defective returns.

    Portia is a meddlesome, overbearing witch! I hated how she wheeled Curtis away from Sonny. You’re not his momma, Portia. If he wants to talk to Sonny, he can! I sincerely hope we learn that Curtis is the reason he was shot because I’m sick of Portia blaming Anna and Sonny. She’s beyond annoying. You know it’s bad when you can’t sympathize with a woman whose husband has been shot and paralyzed! 

    Preach. She's always annoyed me. Other than her love for Trina, Portia doesn't have one redeeming trait that I can see. Yet Tracy gets constantly vilified. Ugh.

    ETA - Portia's semi-apology to Anna was one of the worst I've ever seen. I personally would rather have the Witch stay mad at me. Anna can be much too compassionate sometimes as with the whole Peter thing.

    Hell, I’d settle for Tracy and Ava sipping martinis and recapping/snarking various PC goings-on.

    Yes!!!! The Stadler and Waldorf of Port Chuckles!!!! I'd sign-up for that spin-off any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

    When he gave her the first bottle of pills, she was of sound mind. She knew what she was doing and she didn't even read the bottle?  Just blindly took it and started popping them, a recovering drug addict? That's stupid and idiotic. People read labels when they buy things at the grocery store.

    People tend to believe what doctors tell them, especially those who don't have a science background. The court-appointed psychiatrist tells Sasha that she needs to take these pills to get better, it's not surprising that she does what she is told.

    You would think that, but the creation of Google has changed everything. One time I had a very bad reaction to an Rx my Cardiologist prescribed, literally thought I was going to kick the bucket. Googled the pills and found out it had...snake venom derivative in it.  Informed my Dr. about it, she kind of giggled and said, " I know, about 10% of all patients have that same reaction." From that point on I've been using the web to research any new meds. At the very least Sasha could have gotten a second opinion and we would have been spared the endless torture porn.

    I've already said I hate corporate stories. Zero interest in watching Tracy versus Lucy, especially since it makes little sense.

    If Tracy wanted any part of ELQ, she had years before now to do this. It's such a waste. I was enjoying her and Gregory. At least they were fun and they both came alive.

    Oh, well.

    GH hasn't done corporate stories well since any iteration of Edward Q. was alive. It's great that we got the brilliant JE back, but a damn shame the writers don't know what to do with her. So many of the recent S/Ls seem redundant and anti-climatic.

    Re. Nick: I have never thought that Nik was cast properly. TC did a decent job of giving him a formal air, but he was a little too slouchy and lumbering to really carry it off.  But in terms of giving princely vibes, I agree he was best.

    Original recipe Nik was always my favorite, but...looking at old YT videos, TC actually was rather lumbering.

    Never noticed that before. Nice catch @30 Helens

    ETA: Being a guy, I never considered that one or both of the Carlys may be wearing weaves. I always thought LW's Mane of golden, luxurious hair was all hers - it's one of Carly Sr's most re-deeming traits.

  9. I know why Kelly's has become more popular with the Carlys working the Counter now. It's their "Kelly's World-Famous BLT Special - Now with 50% more long blond hairs at no charge!!!!" There's a method to the "no hair nets" madness.

    Catching up on past episodes, I'm loving Cyrus the Reformer!  With all that scenery-chewing on Friday, it's like he's parodying every televangelist that ever lived.  Oh, where have you gone, Reverend Ike?

    As much as I enjoy Anna/Dante/Robert and Tracy/Finn convos, I can’t with the psychiatrist from hell threatening Sasha and will go back to skipping the show for a bit.

    Overall the replacement writers have done a good job, but the Sasha torture porn has gone from unpleasant to plain uncomfortable to watch. At least when Anthony Z. murdered poor, helpless Siobhan McKenna in her hospital bed it was a one-and-done scene. We have to watch Sasha suffer two or three times weekly, not good. Not good at all.

    On a more positive note, Kristina has become my favorite of the Davis Coven. With the self-esteem issues behind her, Krissy has an upbeat, level-headed personality, plus a very kind face and manner. Seems like the writers agree and we're seeing a lot of her now.

      I don't think Mason is any more of a cousin to Austin than I am

    His name is Mason Gatlin which is Austin's mother's maiden name (hence his own name Austin Gatlin Holt), so does anyone remember if Charity Gatlin had a brother that would be Mason's father?  

    Actually, @perkie1968, that was ciarra's comment. To me, when Brick and Sonny were flipping photos like baseball cards I actually did see a familial resemblance between Austin and Mason. And oh, the days of Jimmie Lee Holt - GH really did have some good comedy relief back then.

    From the photos the other day:  I don't think Mason is any more of a cousin to Austin than I am.  When Mason was first introduced, they used "cousin" to explain why he was hanging around with Austin.

    Does Olivia think that bra-less, spandex slingshot of a dress is work-appropriate? 

    Oddly enough, Mason and Austin do look like relatives. As for Olivia, she likes putting the "girls" on display, I think. Sad that she's now the Matriach of the Q family, while Tracy gets hated on by everyone, even Leo. Guessing Leslie Charleson's illness is keeping her from working at all.

  13. I'm kinda digging the replacement writers. The dialogue seems more realistic and the storylines are moving at a brisker pace.

    There's also a lot of social justice stuff going on, shades of the 90s. Kristina's idea to have a program for LBGTQ youth is actually pretty cool - urban centers like NYC and SF piloted those many years ago. Plus, Krissy really looks like the offspring of Alexis and Sonny - she has a lot of NLG's mannerisms and facial expressions as well.

    Cyrus's idea to give all his $ away to help his fellow inmates is pretty nifty too.

    This might be as good as it gets folks.

    Kristina to Michael: "You're the smartest person I know."  Oh sweetie.... Even in this episode, Alexis is showing how much smarter she is than Michael.

    It looks like neither Michael nor Kristina knows how the board of a non-profit works, or maybe it's the writers. He just took on a large time committment.

    Drew is much better away from Carly. Still badly written, but better.

    Why does Anna assume that the person is trying to kill her because she was a double agent and not because of something that she did as a WSB agent?

    I hope that they don't kill off Cyrus, he's one of the more interesting parts of the show.

    You hit on a good point.  Michael isn’t smart.  In fact, it would be easier to list everyone who isn’t smarter.

    My list would start with Moss.

    I simply must second that Michael was wearing the most ill fitting blouse I have ever seen in my life today. I mean, OMG. It looks like Wiley sewed it on his Fisher Price sewing machine!

    Did you mean to say Blouse?  In America men wear shirts, LOL. But since it's Mikey, you're probably right.

    why was Michael yelling at Nina?

    Because he's a deplorable little Arsehole. And poor Nina just stands there and takes it. Cringeworthy.

    I really hope that Sonny requests a private interview with Betty (not a name I’d choose for someone her age) to scare the 💩 out of her, although my guess is that she will be the next body to be found once she is no longer any use to Mason. 

    If Ava and Sonny are smart they'll hire Betty - torture her on a daily basis and use her to feed mis-information to the latest "Big Bad." All they have to do is ask themselves "what would Tony Soprano do?" Although he'd probably kill them all after the requisite amount of hand-wringing.

    In other news, Rebecca Herbst is so beautiful it actually hurts to look at her (TM Bruce Willis).

    I know right!  I hate that about GH...someone has a few drinks, or drinks a few days in a row and it's a big alcoholic storyline.  Do these people live on planet earth?  Sometimes I get very stressed and have drinks, sometimes I even do it 2 nights in a row!  

    I hear tell that some folks have several shots right after watching GH. It really helps so I hear!

    Mr. mbluecpa was a tad disappointed that Curtis didn’t wake up thinking he was a singer or one of Eddie’s band members.

    LOL. Though Curtis's ego would have him as a Pip (as in Gladys Knight and the ...).

    Heh. Curtis shows absolutely no signs of having any rhythm. Like me, he's probably one of those Black men that loves music, but can't dance worth a lick. Now the Pips? Those Brothers could MOVE, right up there with the Temptations and the Spinners.

    From what discount store are they getting these Mollies? The last one was pretty much a Zoolander fembot, and today I felt like I was watching Jan Brady have a "Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!" meltdown. 

    Really does seem like there's a fire sale on Mollies, doesn't it? Buy one, get two free - each one older and more shrill than the last? I actually thought this nunu Molly was Esme for a second.

    Casting really has to keep going back to the Nu Molly store until they get the right one.

    Also, while it's always good to see JK, the Sasha torture porn just has to stop. What did the actress do to TIIC???

    Davis Coven: while I haven't had much use for KeMo in a long time, I do enjoy the apparent RL affection she seems to have for NLG. Their scenes always play like real mother-daughter interaction - KeMo always does subtle little things like inter-twining her arm around NLG's or hand holding. It's nice, actually.

    ETA: After Sasha's latest meltdown, my guess is Cody has a rare blood-type and only Mac is an available match. Otherwise the stabbing makes no sense. But neither do a lot of things on GH.

    Also, how much is that house worth that she can sell it, pay off the $5 million, buy a condo and live off the rest of the price in leisure?  How stupid does the show think I am?

    Carly lived there so that makes the house worth three times its market price. 

    And if Carly throws in Moss we're talking five times market value.
