CPP83 December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 (edited) I can't get on board with bashing the PCPD at this point Well for me I don't care about the current PCPD crew beyond Anna and thankfully Mac is no longer involved with that hell hole, lord knows he got his nose rubbed in it countless times himself. There is Scott as well but...they still haven't unloaded the dead weight that is Franco from his back. But when it comes to criticizing the PCPD I am not so much looking at them but the writing, the story telling or lack thereof, to me it's the same as going after the same stupidity that exists in the general characters in PC. The PCPD are only useless and dumb because they're written to be that way so that Ron's evil little pets can have a run of the asylum. He'd rather have all these criminals waltzing about, terrorizing and torturing and "winning the day". The show is his playground and if Ron has shown me anything so far he hates playing fair.

Cobalt Stargazer December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 Colbalt, Cattitude has only been watching since May so she's missed Sonny's greatest hits. :) Heh, fair enough, ulkis. I just figured that since the entire list of Sonny's crimes is longer than War and Peace, I'd stick to the one thing that actually involves Ava. :-) 2 Link to comment
Fylaki December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 I have not seen him yet, but let's be careful if he is blond and decent looking, Ron will recon him into being Hutch and Rose Kelly's love child who hates all the residents of Port Charles and is secretly married to Rosalie while pining after Morgan 4 Link to comment
Deputy Deputy CoS December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 Most of the towns people should be in jail for aiding and abetting but that is not feasible so the murders themselves should. Ava for killing Connie and Sonny for AJ. Not caring Connie but it doesn't change the fact that Ava murdered her in cold blood. It goes without saying that all the other murders should be in jail too. I don't mind Jakson, but BM was totally Billy Abbott with Sam and so I just can't get into Jason, it is like Billy Abbott moved to PC. I've seen BM be dark and so I know he is capable of range outside of lovable screwup. His acting choices doesn't fit with the characterization he's gotten so far. Forget about Jason. This is a guy who woke up in a strange place, with a face he doesn't recognize. He doesn't remember a single thing about his life prior and every possession he owes is due to a stranger's goodwill. He should not be that bouncy based on that alone. When you include brainwashing, his behavior becomes more puzzling. He should be held tighter together, be more circumspect. That doesn't mean he should never crack a smile, but acting like the star quarterback is disingenuous. Maybe Helena adds another command we are not privy to. "Mr Morgan, you are free of all worries, go and be merry" 2 Link to comment

One might think he was that damn Mac puppet come to life the way he behaves but it doesn't match his circumstances in the slightest. To me it's no more believable than this "sudden connection" between he and Liz, or he and Carly...dios mio. Ron wants to play with Jason far more than he cares about writing a confused, alone, memory blanked individual who would be more likely to keep to himself and stay away from people than giggling over "Legally Blond" as he catches up on his pop culture references. So of course we get bouncy, happy, joke telling, laughing and smirking Jason because that's in Ron's lackluster wheelhouse. No realism, no genuine human emotions, imho, just camp and silliness. I don't mind Jakson, but BM was totally Billy Abbott with Sam and so I just can't get into Jason, it is like Billy Abbott moved to PC. I've seen BM be dark and so I know he is capable of range outside of lovable screwup. I saw the same thing myself, Billy is playing the part he's comfortable playing for the moment and to me there's just so many detachments to how "Jake" should be considering his position and situation.

ulkis December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 (edited) Tony Geary's accent is as annoying as Nina's cloying baby voice. And who knows how long we'll have to listen to it. Is there any better proof than Jason taints everything he touches than Helena today? I've never wanted her to fall off the docks more than I did today. Please shut up about the wonder that is Jason Morgan, Helena. I know it's in Carly's character to be utterly unaware of herself, but maybe she can give just a glimmer? Just a teeny tiny glimmer? And what's more can everyone stop being like "oh thank God Carly came to her senses" and add, "she was a fucking idiot for going out with Franco" instead of acting like she wasn't at fault at all for going out with him in the first place? And I don't really buy Carly being all "I'm totally in love with you and want to be with you forever and we wasted all these years!" It was one thing when she was screwing him on the side but I don't think she'd throw herself back in whole-heartedly. Nice to know Spinelli is still committing felonies off-screen.

dubbel zout December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 I can't get on board with bashing the PCPD at this point. It's them against the world on a show that focuses everything on making sure the villains get away so they can do the same fucking things over and over. Yeah, it's always a plot point that makes the PCPD idiots. They never get a chance for a true win, unless it's some obvious one-off. "I'll die before I let you make Carly a widow" That's tied for me with "I haven't heard from Morgan since the last time we talked" for favorite dumb statement by Sonny. Sonny and Carly are together even when they're not together together, so this "break up" is stupidly weak sauce. And seeing that Sonny is finally paying for a crime he committed, I can't feel sorry that the lovers are being kept apart. LOL that Sonny told her she loves with her whole heart. What about being brave and strong? I love how Carly and Sonny are the only ones in the visiting room. And my, the wormhole from Pentonville to PC is quick. I can't get all excited about Sam and Jakeson because it's so obvious we're supposed to be squeeing that they're talking but don't know each other's true identities! OMG! Squee! Ugh. Ugh, James Franco's real-life mom. I'm sure she's a lovely lady, but she's a terrible actor. Though I loved her unwittingly telling Lauren her origin story, complete with Ava hate. Hee. They should have had Ava tell her she was the harpy who trapped Franco. That Franco groupie—UGH. Way to use her for exposition anvils. "That baby doesn't look like either of you." She doesn't look like her real parents, either. (Maybe a squinch like Ava because of the fairness and blue eyes.) My eyes practically rolled out of my head. Mounties! I died. 3 Link to comment
admiralrodcocker December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 (edited) The baby not looking like Franco and Nina comment was so annoying. Let's be honest here, most newborns don't look like their parents, or anyone in particular. Their features don't start taking shape until they get to be a few months older. Or at the very least, they don't look enough like anyone for a complete stranger to be able to point out for the audience's sake that it's completely implausible for that baby to be biologically theirs. The only time that a comment like that would make sense is if the baby was an entirely different race than the parents or parent. Like in the case of Britt pretending Brad was Ben's father. The obvious fact that Brad did not father that kid was such an elephant in the room and yet most of the citizen's of PC stupidly believed it. The show was mind-numbingly boring today. I did like seeing Maxie back volunteering and doing something with her day even if her motive was to snog Nathan. Oh, and nice for Liz to have a patient other than Jake.

Tiger December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 (edited) It pains me to say this, but it needs to be said: STFU Helena! Between failing to slit Spencer's throat, offering comfort to Dr. O, and droning on and on and on about the wonder that is Jason Morgan, I'm over her. Officially. I don't know why I'm surprised, I shouldn't be, by what a revolting human being Carly is. Just when I think she cannot possibly say or do anything more disgusting, she does. Kudos to LW for playing Carly with so much bile and vile. This story has really brought out the best acting-wise from Laura and Mo. Poor Ava being surrounded by a bunch of dumbasses, and poor being Maura being surrounded by a bunch of bad actors. Edited December 11, 2014 by Tiger 7 Link to comment

CPP83 December 12, 2014 Share December 12, 2014 (edited) Well today happened and it was very pointless and yawn worthy imo. They are really determined to give Billy "Jason hair" aren't they? My word. I really can't get into any scenes involving Sam and Jason because I lost any tolerance I had with those two years ago, not to mention all this godawfulness with Jake and the brainwashing and crap. Of course Sonny himself can tell Carly that anything they might have together isn't worth losing Michael over and she still would rather believe that she can have it all, all her way exactly as she wants it without her having to sacrifice or give up anything. That precious baby girl is so cute even while sleeping, I can't get enough of her. So Morgan is going to tout how he is going to keep the baby away from Ava? That little rat's ass is his father's son, and he still doesn't know if he is truly the father. Maybe Julian can file for custody somehow or have shared custody with Silas, that girl should be with anyone outside of the Corinthos gene pool, well and Kiki, can't forget Kiki, she shouldn't be trusted with a Chia Pet.

The dialogue wasn't what anyone could call subtle. Ron probably wrote the flashback sex scene last week. I like the chemistry between KeMo and BM, and I didn't mind their scenes. I'm still confused about what Jakeson remembers, though. So he doesn't remember freeing Faison or working for Helena, but does he remember he's Jason? Or did Helena instruct him to forget that too?
