Culture Check: How can we discuss a character's or actor's appearance without objectifying them? How can we express likes or dislikes and still respect an individual's humanity or be mindful that a character represents a person someone else might relate to or identify with?

Everything that Jane Elliot did (her expressions) and said were: Chef’s Kiss!

And the reunion with Lulu was just wonderful! I loved the “Step Monster” call back.

Drew really has transformed into the worst sleaze ball ever. Can he die next?

I continue to lap up all scenes with Lucky and Elizabeth. But Portia’s pretentious “Nurse Baldwin” continues to grate.

As others have stated, I loved the reality check Dante handed to Lulu.

I cackled when the SLS let Willow and the kids leave, undermining Cujo. 

Unless Felicia ends up as a recovering patient, I’m not worried about Cyrus coming after her.

UGH. Are we forever going to be stuck with perpetually crying Anna?! I guess Show has forgotten that Dex was former military before he was Mooby’s hired goon. Not some naive fresh faced innocent from Kansas.

If this was Columbo or Murder, She Wrote, Columbo and Jessica would have connected the dots between Sam and Dex’s deaths already! But here? Hand wringing over HOW could this HAPPEN? from the cops.

Huh?

I was expecting Nina and Carly to get into a hardcore fistfight (hoping really).  Where Nina unleashes full on crazy rage and beats the living shit out of Carly.

Am I the only one who wanted to see that?  The inner rage and animus they towards each other has been barely restrained for years.  It’s time.

Everybody who is not yet a teenager is a preteen, for the purposes of my classification.

I thought Molly and TJ were still in their 20s.

Not sure.  Don't have a good sense of how long they've been out of school.  TJ would have been about 26 by the time he started as a resident, Molly about 25 by the time she graduated law school.  But it's soap time, so who knows?

30s: Sasha, Lulu, Brooklyn, Chase, Dante, Cody, Kristina, Molly, TJ, Willow, Michael

40s: Maxie, Spinelli, Lucky, Liz

 

Maxie and Spinelli belong with Lulu and Brooklyn. They were all in the same teen scene, and are on the edge of 40. I would put Dante (and by extension Cody) with the Lucky/Liz gen. He’s always played a few years older than Lulu and Maxie. 

Molly and TJ are technically still in their 20s, but she grew up with Michael and Kristina, so I would keep them grouped with that generation.

Anna, as police commissioner, you owe it to the citizens of Port Charles to put fucking mobsters in prison.

They are styling Liz's hair like it was when she was a teen/young woman which is making her look younger than usual. Also, I love her sweater today. 

Jason, you are allowed to say no when someone asks you to do something that is going to take time and focus away from your grieving son. 

Anna, giggle twice if someone is holding your grandchildren hostage and that's why you're crying all the time.

Where is God to smite someone when one needs to be smote? And by someone I mean Sonny.

For the love of my eyeballs, Lucky, FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE SHOWER. 

I'd be far more interested in Camp Cooper shenanigans if it was Dante and Cody who had a fling. 

I hope the Digitalis Killer does me a favor and jab Spinelli.

Don't international crime bosses have better things to do than to personally stalk their victims? Should they have henchmen to do the dirty work while they use their ill-gotten gains on hookers and blow?

Lulu is really sprinting towards insufferable.  Very impressive for someone who's been comatose for four years.  

I was also thoroughly unimpressed with how Laura blew off Martin telling her what Jason and Anna did to him.  

Was Sasha ever religious before or was today totally about contrivance?  Also, I'm also not religious but I would like to put in a request for no more torture porn for Sasha.

The ELQ livingroom is back. But it is brown with ugly blue curtains.

They also pulled out the set for the Queen of Angels.

If Sasha was planning on making Seven Fishes for Christmas Eve, it is going to be a long Christmas especially since we didn't have any Thanksgiving.

Sonny doesn't realize that he was talking grandbaby's mama.

Nope, just nope. There was never a hint of BLQ and Dante having anything together way back than.

Anna needs to lean on the detectives who are actually employed by the PCPD to investigate the deaths at GH. Does she even realize yet that Sam and Dex were killed the same way?

It's hard to keep up with crime when all your time is spent wiping your eyes and blowing your nose.

Oscar had a meadow.  And a rock.

OK, I stand corrected. I really thought Oscar had a bench. But now that you mention it, a rock is much more appropriate. I guess that means that Dex will get his plaque on a fallen tree? A piece of driftwood? Really, anything stiff and arboreal would suffice.

I thought there might be a bench (sans dedication plaque) near the rock, but no.  Just a brick wall.  Not sure where the wildflowers are supposed to grow, on astroturf.

I guess I'm alone here. I was more on Lulu's side than BLQ's. Sure, Lulu has missed 4 years, but Brooklyn showed exactly zero grace, empathy, sympathy, remorse or understanding for the fact that for Lulu when she last saw Brooklyn the woman had accepted money to seduce her husband and destroy her marriage. In the interim, Lulu had been in an explosion, lost four years of her life, and missed out on her kids growing up. Of course, Lulu is going to think the worst of her. Of course, Brooklyn telling her like she doesn't know any better that things have changed is going to ruffle Lulu's feathers. 

TBF, BLQ is high on my list of least liked characters and I'm already really liking AH's Lulu, and totally get her POV. I'm biased.

Lulu and Dante were in a committed relationship but they were not married when BLQ tried breaking them up.

And before Lulu went into a coma, both she and BLQ were repeatedly getting into physical fights and were both equally acting childish. Their dynamic has not changed four years later.

How can Jason go find Charlotte and solved who killed Dex, when apparently Sidwell is hanging out in churches finding out about secret pregnancies. Sidwell got his diamonds why can't he go after Holly and leave poor Sasha alone.

Arrr, his jewels!

Cannot believe they repeated the same gag with Cyrus in the church from last year. This is what I mean about these boring crime characters being interchangeable. Get fucked, hacks.
