  1. I've only been half-watching lately due to the MLB Playoff and work, but my guess is Sam's death will mark the return of Sidwell looking for revenge by killing the people closest to Jason and Lucky (see Lulu's respirator failure which happened on a day I wasn't watching). Isaiah and Lucas are probably spot on in suspecting foul play but are oddly reluctant to go to the feds. My take is Sam's murder sets off a Sonny/Jason vs Sidwell war where Sonny disposes of the bad guy (via Jasus) and gets his Saint/Hero status restored (not like it ever went anywhere).
  2. Yeah, I've never quite seen her do quiet contempt like that before. It felt like she was only holding back because Felicia was there. And once Sam is gone, those two will be all that's left of the Davis Coven. Aaargh. Also, it may be premature and very impractical to think this, but I'm dreaming of Dr. Isaiah Gannon as GH's future Chief of Staff. I'm sure the ladies out there will love it, and he and Jordan (who has suddenly become both attractive and interesting to me) will become PC's next Power Couple.
  3. I vaguely remember Holly being somewhat domestic back in her early days with Robert. The worse thing about this "Sasha's Momma S/L" is that we'll probably have ES as a permanent addition to this already bloated cast.
  4. Looking for something to steal maybe?
  5. So, in other words, they both "reached for the gun?" Reaching for the Gun Sorry, it went viral a while back, and I just couldn't help myself.
  6. He is a match however his liver did not pass the test(s) for healthy enough to be a donor. (Not surprising given his past drug addiction and drinking and that he's been in some remote/unhealthy places over the years of travel.) First, he stopped in to see Lulu and his nephew heard what he said to her. He was already upset, but Rocco being devastated face-to-face with Lucky that he's not able "to save my mom" and screaming that they all lied was the final straw that provoked Lucky's temper tantrum at Bobbie's. Also - while we all (mostly) love Lucky, let's not forget that he's the son of two parents who, over the years, have dealt with serious psychological issues. Lucky just handles his a bit better, is all. Ideally, the character we all believe Lucky to be will show some contrition and even a bit of embarrassment about the blow-up. Not even Luke would have gone that far, he just would have downed a bottle of cheap hooch instead.
  7. The actors almost always bring out the best in each other. Watching yesterday, when Lucky asked "Did he (Isiah) talk about me? Did he hit on you?" there was a quiet natural-ness that we don't get much of these days. It was nice. She's also an awful human being in general. In light of past Chiefs-of-Staff like Steve Hardy, Monica and Alan Quartermaine, Portia and Terry really, really suck.
  8. wow - bonus points to you for remembering her full name (even if you looked it up, bonus points for taking the time to do so!) Thank you @MarciNJ - I actually didn't look it up. I'm one of those people who has a thing for remembering full names, lol. Plus, the character was so polarizing on the board (I remember some folks calling her the "Irish Spitter"), her entire name kind of stood out. Particularly when it's spelled "Siobhan" and pronounced "Shavon."
  9. I could be mis-remembering because it's been ages, but wasn't it Siobhan McKenna's murder at the hands of Anthony Zacchara that triggered Lucky and sent him overseas?
  10. Same thought I had. As GH villains go, he's actually more boring than the Balkan (or "that Bald idiot," as Sonny once called him). Sidwell coming to Port Chuckles to reclaim his diamonds probably gets Mooby involved since Jasus will probably be a target. Thanks, that didn't occur to me - My Yankees won their Division last night and get a "Bye" in the first round of the MLB Playoffs. Guess I'll catch some of those games (even though most of the Teams playing don't interest me) cause there's really no compelling original content on in the afternoons anymore. By the time GH comes back, maybe our interest will pick up? Asking for a friend.
  11. Back in the day, in my family, he would have heard, "Grown folks are talking. Why are you standing here looking in my mouth? Go outside!" Although the way RF played it, she subtly shifted from her "proper" way of speaking back to Lois' native accent at Gio's prodding, so I guess it's back to Bensonhurst for good. In a related theme - Anna won over Holly in the battle of English accents. Anna's accent sounds much more polished and cultured. Curtis's "but I did my hair for tonight" was 24k Gold. Let's put a fiver in the writer's tip jar for that one..I actually LOL'd. The "Rescue Lucky" S/L really does have 90s vibes - the writers really do seem to be trying for a change - but something's missing.
  12. Heh. I was going to post: "Hey Jasus! Rick Blaine called from 1944 Morocco. He wants his jacket back." In other news - the Insta-chemistry between Isaiah and Jordan is quite nice. They make an attractive couple and I'm glad Jordan has been saved from the Horror Show that is Brick (no last name, just "Brick"). Count me among those who wish that Col. Tad Parker had kept the facial hair and accent. In an odd reversal, shaving the goatee and mustache seems to have aged him, visually.
  13. You know what the most eyerolling stupidest thing about this is. This is the same dipstick that for three. years. was pouting and throwing fits, and saying how Sonny deserves to go to jail basically because Daddy didn't love Mommy anymore and they got a divorce and he didn't like the woman Sonny was sleeping with at the time. but Jagger deserves to be murdered in cold blood, and leaving behind a special needs child because he was doing his job and arresting Sonny for doing illegal things and that's totally fine with Michael. I swear this show. And on top of all that, Mooby killed SLS's biological father. I still don't understand how any of the Qs have gotten past that. But of course, AJ was fat, so there's that. Same here. Early KW kind of grated on my nerves, but she's grown into a very competent actor - and the baby voice is gone. Best work from Kate Mansi to date. Fine jobs all around.
  14. Few things irk me more than when JE/Tracy is reduced to one of the show's tackling dummies. In reality, the Q's should be revering Tracy. This is a woman who shot Jerry Jax with lethal intentions. One of my favorite Tracy scenes is when she rescued Holly and Ethan from Victor. On hearing the story, Carly asked Tracy "did you kill him?" Tracy's response was something like, "Well, I planned to, but he wasn't there." A true G.O.A.T. - and a force of nature that can be kind, compassionate, wise and loyal - who deserves more respect than the writers and characters demonstrate. Rant over.
  15. Thanks. As to the bolded, the same thing was done--when Tyler left; both he and JJ rewrote their last scenes, and those scenes were the better for it. Wouldn't be interesting if the current crop of actors got re-write authority? Would we get a better, more entertaining soap? Re: a potential Anna/Jasus pairing - how's that going to work exactly, the Police Commissioner and Mob Enforcer? Assuming of course Mayor Collins let's Anna keep her job after the Valentin lie is revealed - and it will be. The writing seems to be positioning Jordan to get her old job back.
  16. Anna really seems a bit unhinged these days. Did anyone else notice the manic way she just burst into Brennan's office and started barking at everyone?
  17. EWWW, YUCK, PTOOEY! No, just no. I have to believe Jason wouldn't do that because of Robin. I remember awhile back, when Anna was staying with Mooby, after her home was destroyed, folks were speculating that those two would hook up, which didn't happen, thank goodness. I still remember having to use brain bleach with the whole Luke and Anna thing after Robin "died" so, please Burton, refuse. PLEASE REFUSE. Sadly, we've seen this coming for awhile, now, and I wonder what the over/under is for Anna and Jason boning before Thanksgiving? A lot of women on GH don't seem to have a "type," do they? With Anna - Robert, Duke, Valentin, Luke - do they have anything in common other than their gender?
  18. Saw the HBO documentary Saturday and thought I saw MB in the auditions for Tony Soprano role. Sad thing is, as great a Thespian as Mo believes himself to be, James Gandolfini had more talent in his little toe than Muttering MB will ever have.
  19. You mean like the Seinfield finale? I like that, all three of them in the same cage for all of eternity. Fitting punishment if there ever was one.
  20. Can't expect anything less from trash. Protagonists of the show, my ass. Today's episode was really weird. After being a "mob boss" for decades, why doesn't Sonny have a "cleaner" (ala a Winston Wolfe from Pulp Fiction) on speed dial? Now SLS and Snarly have to be accessories after the fact. Jeez. Ava and Jason made interesting allies. It was fascinating seeing Jasus apply his "hitman logic" on how to deal with the faux FBI Agent, who we can safely assume has been, ah, disposed of. Whoa, Sonny was right all along, at least about Jagger's motives. While Snarly is an abomination, LW is breathtakingly lovely. That exasperated side-eye she gave Sonny with the Qs was unintentionally gorgeous. Over at GH, it seems that Rebecca Herbst is aging in reverse. Some genes there. Wonder if the writers will be going with a Liz-Ric-Lucky triangle? ITA with the under 30 couples being totally asexual. The thought of a Spaxie love scene makes most of us cringe and Brooke Lynne/Chase have about as much heat as a cream cone. Even a pretty couple like Cody and Sasha don't have much sizzle.... Guess Dr. Gannon will be the lever that somehow brings Lucky back to PC.
  21. I've been thinking the same thing. Even these writers aren't stupid enough to think the audience (less the most diehard Sonny stans) would put up with this. Isn't it sad that this show is so putrid we're even considering this? Aaaargh!
  22. Oh it was straight up murder. Although given Jagger's deranged state, Kristina was in perpetual danger.
  23. Gee, today's episode was pretty good. The best part was Alexis channeling her inner Cassadine. When she told Jagger: "I'll stop you...permanently," she was deadly serious. Helena would have been impressed. Sonny finally shoots someone in the Chest who actually deserved it. Imagine that. You mean Willow and Drew banging by Labor Day? If so, I put my money on that day too. I'll dodge some fruit here, but their love scene was actually kinda hot, although cheesily written. I really hope Kristina doesn't try to off herself. After all of this, she should have Kevin on speed dial. Luke's dialogue coming out of Lucky's mouth is a real buzzkill for me.
  24. I prefer, "No soup for you."
  25. No. He’s chief of detectives. I haven’t seen anything that said he left the force. That's interesting - since JYY has returned, we haven't really seen him involved with any police stuff that I can recall - just the Cody nonsense. That's what led me to believe he was at least semi-retired. But I've been kind of half-watching for awhile now.
