Sake614 January 17, 2018 Share January 17, 2018 So Sonny says Jason can’t be controlled? And then in the next sentence, he praises Jason for always coming when called and doing whatever needs doing efficiently, cleanly and without cops. Um, isn’t that the very definition of being controlled? Or maybe it’s just the perfect definition of a lapdog. Jason fetch! jason come! Jason kill! who's a good boy? And I’m going to be sick. i liked the Carly/joss and Kim/oscar scenes but I’m not looking forward to the ‘come as you are’ party or GH trying to tackle the transgender issue. Because you know they’ll screw it up. also really enjoyed the Jake/drew/Liz scene. But the scene at Kelly’s where Jason sees Jake and tearily waves to him? I could do without. The kid is your son and you claim to want to know him. The least you could do is SMILE when he waves! Or you know, walk into the restaurant and say hello. sonny, for the love of dog, STOP WHISPERING! 12 Link to comment

But she and Sam also don't need to act like Jason checking out of his sons' lives is proof of his love for them. It's not good to lie to your children. Jake has room in his life for Jason as well as Drew and Franco and Danny is open to time spent with Jason while living with Sam and Drew. It's not a zero sum game. And looking sad from across the room is not proof of Jason's love for anyone but his mob family. 12 Link to comment
dubbel zout January 17, 2018 Share January 17, 2018 What a lot of crap dialogue this episode. That dumb P.K. Sinclair story ends with the son killing the father, and "we can work with him," says Sonny. Yes, you do have an affinity for murderers, Sonny. Ugh. Then we have Ava getting moony over getting her badly applied bronzer removed, and everything will be totes okay! Her looks are the most important thing. And there's Michael with his reaction to being the father of Nelle's baby. That sop about his gut feeling telling him the baby was his doesn't fly with me, Show. You still had Michael call Nelle unstable, and now she's going from inept schemer to pregnant lunatic. Ugh. I liked the sex talk Kim had with Oscar better than the one Carly had with Joss. For one thing, it sounded like Kim's talk was more of a reminder of what they'd discussed earlier. She's right that if you can't say the words "having sex," you aren't ready to do it. I agree with everyone who says 14 is too old for Joss to be hearing about the emotional side of sex for the first time. I also thought Oscar's reaction to Kim wanting to talk about this at Kelly's was spot on. So embarrassed and wanting the floor to open up and swallow him. Hee. Sonny asking Carly if it was too early for wine was rich coming from the man who drinks constantly and is apparently on bipolar medication. Now GH is wading into gender-identification issues? Oh, dear. And there's no way a private party thrown the same night as a school dance would be grounds for suspension. A better story would be Joss, Oscar, and their friends cross-dressing to the dance. Fight the patriarchy in the belly of the beast, to mix metaphors. 5 Link to comment

And yes, show, Ava's outward appearance is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING for her. As it should be for all wimmens. <SkipperBitch eyeroll> Not getting back to her toddler child and strengthening her relationship with Lauren. Her face! That will fix everything! Now Nelle is delusional and Michael is just grand. Blech. Kim was great with Oscar. She actually sounded like a parent who is an doctor. Her rushing off to yell and Drew was weird. Why wouldn't she just question Oscar and hear his story? Best acting out of the teen who plays Oscar too. He really did look like he just wanted to die, rather than talk about sex. I also liked Julian with Kim this week. Who knew? Fuck off Carly and Sonny. Too bad this shitty show ruined a great chance to look into Carly's teen days with that terrible Reese/real Carly crap. It could've been an interesting story to look at. Have Caroline to go her high school reunion and run into the real Carly. Let it all come out. Have Sonny/Michael find out about "affair" and the what actually happened. Was C Benson a willing teen vamp or was she a troubled teen who was lured into a sexual relationship with her bestie's married and troubled father? It could be very interesting to see where Sonny stood on the story. Too bad Joss and Oscar have almost zero chance of having friendson screen. So I don't care about people I never met, much less seen. Why yes, show, St. JASUS is the bestest dad out there. He has never been around for Jake. But he "loves" him. By not being around. By choosing Sonny over Jake. Every time it came up. Same can also be said for Danny. I do love the fact that Jake was conflicted and worried about getting to know Jason. That he felt like he would be betraying Drew. Too bad I just hate this Jason is perfect crap. I think that I need equal time of Monica/Drew if I must be subjected to Jason/Sonny. Just because. Monica deserves at least one living kid that actually shows his love, affection and respect of to her. 5 Link to comment

I'll wave to you through the window next time I see you and look at you with very sad, watery eyes. Bye now! That Drew/Jake scene was really sweet. I find that BM has a really good rapport with the kids. Even Oscar isn't half so bad when they're in scenes together. I wish GH wouldn't touch upon social issues. They made a mess of the Kristina story. You know writers, the girl she fell in love with did not have to be her teacher. They should have skipped the opioid storyline completely. I'm glad Joss and Oscar are standing up for a friend who is bullied for wanting to be as they are, but the writers are highly incompetent, so I'm sure there will be cringing and facepalming along the way. 8 Link to comment

Yeah, I'd think the principal is using "disrespect for authority" for organizing an alternate Pride Prom Come-As-You-Are Party at the same time. With this, gender-specific dress, and enabling transphobia bullying, this can get shut down faster than Sonny and Jason killing Faison and Faison Jr, and that's with a call to Lambda Legal, and unlike Diane "You violated my client's Third Amendment rights and I'm going to bust you down to janitor" Miller, they DO have some swift ninja legal moves. Now, if only Joss knew who had a private space, perhaps a ballroom in a hotel, that could hold the dance.... Is it me, or did I expect Sonny to lean over the laptop and mumble, "Cesar Faison's Son....... come out and plaaaaayyyyyyy......"? 1 Link to comment

Linny January 17, 2018 Share January 17, 2018 What the fuck did I just watch? And how is it fair that even in the midst of Dream! Ava calling everyone out for their sins, we STILL don't get an explicit mention of Sonny murdering AJ? Morgan looked like he had been moonlighting as a werewolf in his time away from PC, and his scenes were unnecessarily long and boring, but whatever, I hope Bryan Craig enjoys cashing that paycheck. Adult! Avery was pretty (though naturally she had to favor Sonny with her dark hair and eyes) and the actress was decent in her small role. Her reappearance as the bartender just underscored how campy the episode was, and I think the overall tone was too silly and not indicative of Ava having a legitimate crisis of conscience. It didn't feel like Ava reflected on her past and how it would affect her future choices, it was more like "well, that was weird, but I'm healed now, so cheers!" This episode was just an odd way to address something that's previously been treated seriously. 7 Link to comment
