TeeVee329 July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 Cameron. Did she at least have a line where she said, "Cameron was so surprised, but so happy to see Jake again."? Or does Cameron no longer exist? 1 Link to comment
CPP83 July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 (edited) What show am I watching? Better yet, what the bloody hell show does Ron believe he's writing for? The direction they're giving the kid actor playing Jake, or maybe it's the lack thereof, is just past deplorable at this point, imho. What are they even telling him to do? Act like he just woke up from a midday nap? I don't think the little boy has any clue what's expected of him so he just falls back on staring at people blankly and stroking that damn motorcycle. But then again that's pretty much how Steve B. went through his scenes for over a decade so... Why is Dillon being even more annoying than usual trying to prod Tracy into taking Luke back? When did he suddenly become Luke's "champion" when he is incredibly guilty of having done some stupid and cruel shit to the woman he claims to "love"? GTFO with that nonsense you little useless prat. And really with Laura at the end? Really? This show is just lost, imo, lost and pointless. Edited July 20, 2015 by CPP83 6 Link to comment

HeatLifer July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 (edited) This could apply to various things he's said or done, could you be more specific? He knows about how psycho Helena is, he knows Robin revived her, he knows about Little Jake, he knows about Faison, he knows about Victor, he knows he hasn't spoken to Robin in nearly a YEAR, but his concern is Danny and Sam's relationship with Jake? How many more things will Patrick know before anyone holds him accountable? When will Ron be held accountable for his writing choices? When will KMc stop getting the blame for this? That's what I mean by Patrick is a dumb fuck, in short. ;) Edited July 20, 2015 by HeatLifer 6 Link to comment
Donny Ketchum July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 In theory that's something I want to see, but the kid playing Cameron is...not the best. And he's likely on summer vacation. Link to comment
WendyCR72 July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 When will KMc stop getting the blame for this? I don't blame her. But the character is needed for anything going forward. Say Patrick is ever allowed to grow a brain and connect the dots. Then? Not much. Because he can't "find" Robin unless/until KMc returns. In that respect, I do think it's poor planning on the part of TMFIC. And I don't think RC cares or can be bothered. Hence why, if KMc cannot commit for an arc because of her directing (and yay for her!), have a TEMP recast and wrap this shit up. 7 Link to comment
ulkis July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 (edited) Why are all the men on the show rocking the John Beradino combover? Poor JT has especially (imo) lost all hotness, between the hair and the non-personality Patrick is exhibiting. Can poor Valerie get to say something besides soothing Dante? How bout even a little, "well I wish you hadn't jumped to conclusions so soon but I know you didn't mean to hurt me on purpose?" She looked very pretty today. As did Lulu actually. These friggin GH men aren't good enough for the women. I have a feeling that was Luke and Lulu's last scene. Jeez, I know it's a recast but they could have put something more into that scene. I liked Paul's line where he asked Tracy if Luke ever made her breakfast. Assembly Line Dillon was annoying me again today. Um, why the hell is Carly not beelining her way to Elizabeth and instead asking STRANGER Big Jake to confirm that it was really Jake? Also, you know she was just upset mostly cause joss no longer had Jason DNA in her. I was mostly bored today, which is actually a compliment because I thought I was going to be infuriated. I liked Laura and Nikolas, GF and TC still have a nice chemistry. Oh, and I really hope they do not have Jordan imply she will out his affair with Valerie if Dante doesn't go get Sonny tomorrow. Why, WHY must they take this annoying, dumb, pointless "grr Sonny" tack with Jordan? And my other fear is Jordan doesn't imply that, but Dante refuses and she fires him (eventually) and he goes to work for Sonny, which I refuse to stop being paranoid about sorry! Basically, Sonny ruins everything, ugh. Speaking of, no Dante, it was not thanks to Carly Lulu knows about the kiss. It's because of your dumb father who can't keep his mouth or his trigger finger closed. Edited July 20, 2015 by ulkis 8 Link to comment

Nope, she just said little Jake was feeling a bit overwhelmed. No specific mention of either brother getting along well or not well with Jake. Cam only seems to get mentioned in reference to Emma or Spencer, except for the moment when Lucky asked Aiden if he was having fun with Cam. Two writing errors/fails re: the kids in my opinion (or three if you count Liz not mentioning a Cam-Jake reunion) - Lucky not seeing Cam and now Laura saying his "two sons". Link to comment

Last time I checked she was a very willing participant in the whole fucking-my-cousin's-husband thing. It takes two to tango and all that jazz. They're both equally responsible for what happened. This Dead Now Alive Jake thing continues to be laughably ridiculous. Liez and Jakeson offer up vague explanations and Patrick and Carly just accept it. Just like that.

The thing is, it stands to reason that Lulu would 'come after' Val either way. My husband jumped to the wrong conclusion about me but you were absolutely willing to jump into bed with him, cousin. I would have words with you. OR Before I could sit down and tell him that this wasn't working and we could amicably split because there's a child in the question, you happily jumped into bed with him. I take issue with that. The fact is, Valerie is in the wrong here as well. She's been drooling over her cousin's husband from jump so she's definitely not innocent and she was happy to be his 'way to get over Lulu' in a situation that wasn't any of her business in the first place. She (and Dante) can say 'but we thought Lulu was being unfaithful' all they want. That means absolutely nothing. What's that saying? Oh yeah, two wrongs don't make a right. Valerie interfered in the marriage. Period. There is no 'get out of jail free' card with this and she's earned anything Lulu wants to fire at her for it. 11 Link to comment

Lulu has treated her like an annoyance she got stuck dealing with from minute one. Well, the cousin, in italics, was meant to be sarcastic. I know they have absolutely no familial relationship and the fact that they are cousins is only relevant because that's how Valerie got shoved into Dante's orbit in the first place. Plus, in Valerie talking about her dead Mom constantly (or so I gather from everyone here) the same familial connection is basically her only characterization. Dead Mom, related to Lulu, wants Dante = Valerie 5 Link to comment

I liked Carly's first few minutes of absorbing the news that Jake is alive. Once she started talking about Jason missing out, blah blah blah, it got stupid, but then it got okay again when it dawned on Carly that Joss's kidney was anonymous. I liked her running through various scenarios. Liz not wanting to know how Jake returned seems pretty logical to me. I don't think I'd want to dig too deeply, either, especially knowing Helena is involved. Maybe in a couple of months, when the initial shock has worn off and a routine has been established.

I think Cam is 11 now? The fire at Wyndemere was Spencer's 10th birthday, and my impression is Cam is a little older. Also, in the aftermath of the Niz affair, when Lucky had Cam and Jake in the park with him, he told the attorney lady Claire that Cam was 6. Amen to Helena shoving Val off a parapet for her sad face right after telling Dante exactly what he wants to hear. You'd think she was a jilted teenager. I fully expect that sometime in the near future (even if it's only during a pregnancy scare), Val will make sure Lulu hears her say, "Dante, I really want you to be in the room when I GIVE BIRTH TO OUR CHILD, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE MY MOTHER DIDN"T LIVE TO SEE ME HAVE THIS BABY."

Val then snuck around, and saw something she decided was ? she went to Dante ,she told tales. She got what she wanted a roll in the hay with Dante. Then lo and behold she was wrong and now she is the victim. No NO no. Val went after Lulu's husband. she had sex with Dante in Lulu's bed. She is not the victim, neither is Dante.

To think everyone thinks he doesn't think of things ahead of time. Plus, it makes sense for Carly to worry. Given all that Helena appears to know, she unquestionably knows that Carly and Josslyn are Spencers (even if Carly rarely acknowledges that branch of her family tree). So Josslyn being used in some sick Helena plot through her new kidney isn't something Carly should necessarily brush off, since it'd mean two Spencers suffering, something Helena would enjoy.
