Aragorn

I believe Eden McCoy gave a good performance today.

I was told that Cameron Mathison’s home burned down in the fire.

The opening sequence of Drillow making love while Michael burned was offensive.

Jason had a turn with Drew. Carly should give Willow a beat down. I want Willow to display marks.

I watched today's rerun in its entirety on Hulu. Leo was on. The show has given up on him. Chase sang a song to Brook Lynn while Ned played the guitar. The creepy music manager then showed up. Sasha appeared with Brando and Gladys. Brando is dead and I miss him. Gladys is gone and I don't miss her. Spencer talked to Ava, Carly talked to Sam, and Sam talked to Spencer. They all talked about Esme. Spencer asked Sam to swear upon her honor as a Cassadine. Sam responded that Cassadines lie, cheat, and steal. Spencer said that Sam was one of the good ones. Spencer then said that Esme is a monster. Spencer was only pretending to be with Esme until he could get proof of her guilt. This totally backfired, as it allowed Esme access to Nikolas. This episode was two weeks away from the point that Nik and Esme sleep together and conceived Ace. Ava had a confrontation with Esme, which doesn't deter Esme. Ava then went to Spencer and offered him $10,000 per week if he could get himself and Esme out of the house. Esme pretended to be moving out, and let Nik talk her out of it. She then opened up her suitcase to reveal that it only had a single shoebox. I loved this episode. It made me think that the show was going to bring back Spencer and Esme.

They can make Josslyn a WSB agent. Her first mission should be to rescue Spencer, who is alive and being held prisoner by the DVX. Opposing Joss would be Esme, who is now a DVX agent.

In this rerun Nikolas, Ava, Spencer, and Esme are all living in Wyndemere. Esme in the process of seducing Nikolas, which leads to the conception of Ace. Spencer and Esme are now considered dead, Nikolas is in prison, Ava is divorced and broke, and Ace is the Cassadine heir. Ace is being raised by non-Cassadines while Sidwell now resides in Wyndemere. Ace is the only male Cassadine still residing in Port Charles.

Joss and Trina’s scenes continue to be the most boring parts of the show.

Chad Duell is too bored and checked out to give a good performance. Before today, Lucy had not been on since September. I had not missed her. I thought the sale of Wyndemere was cancelled and the castle given to Ace. How is Lucy selling it Sidwell?

After Michael suffers his fate, he will do it.

I don’t think that Kristina can run the mob on her own, but she can do it with Jason’s help. I think that Sonny will let Kristina have all of his legitimate businesses and give all of his illegal stuff to Jason.

Sasha is pregnant with a Quartermaine.She should not be hiding it and wanting to leave town. She should be demanding her baby’s share of Quartermaine money.

My predictions: Valentin will be killed and then Charlotte will be brought back to Port Charles. Nikolas will die in prison. Finn and Violet will not return. TJ will get a new position at another hospital and move to another town. Molly will get a new love interest. The show will pretend that TJ never existed and that Jordan is younger than she actually is. Jordan and Isaiah will date. Marshall will make guest appearances in the future but won't live in Port Charles anymore. Michael will leave town without Wiley and Amelia. Lucas will be hysterical because Michael has abandoned Wiley. Drew and Willow will not leave town and will be together until one betrays the other. Sasha talks like she is leaving town but will actually stay with her newfound relatives. James will be the primary child on the show, appearing in one episode per week. Elizabeth will be arrested for murder, but Jason, Lucky, and Ric will team up to save her. Cyrus will be stopped. Elizabeth and Lucky will be in love again. Emma and Gio will be a couple. Trina and Kai will date and then become engaged. Portia and Curtis will like Kai a lot more than Spencer. They will be planning Trina's wedding when Spencer returns. Spencer will come back to life as a recast. Spencer will be legally dead and disinherited. He will have to live like a Spencer and work for a living. When he complains to Laura about not having a trust fund, Laura will give him the speech about how all the Cassadine money is blood money and that he is better off without it. Trina will not dump Kai for Spencer. Spencer will have to change himself to earn her back. Ric will win the toxic hip lawsuit for Heather, making himself and Heather rich. Heather will then return to Port Charles and sue for custody of Ace. Carly and Brennan will get more serious. Sonny and Natalia will get more serious and they will have sex. Natalia's son will come to town. Kristina will continue to be front and center. Michael's departure will make Kristina Sonny's primary child. Blaze will return from her singing tour and get back together with Kristina. The Cassadine estate will realize that Laura wants Ace to give away his money and abandon his heritage. The Cassadine estate will then oppose Laura having custody of Ace and will back Heather's custody lawsuit. Dante and Lulu will fall in love again. Josslyn will appear in other people's scenes looking sad. She will have no new love interest. Ava and Ric will be a couple. Esme will return and be put on trial for her crimes. Heather will have Ric defend Esme and he will get her off from all charges. Esme will get a fresh start to cause more trouble. Oliva divorces Ned and leaves town with Leo. Ned gets back together again with Lois. Laura appoints Martin to replace Robert as DA.

Last year's top ten 1. Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) - 163 2. Cynthia Watros (Nina Reeves) - 142 3. Laura Wright (Carly Spencer) - 134 4. Nicholas Chavez (Spencer Cassadine) - 114 5. Dominic Zamprogna (Dante Falconeri) - 113 6. Tabyana Ali (Trina Robinson) - 111 7. Chad Duell (Michael Corinthos) - 104 *Eden McCoy (Josslyn Jacks) - 104 9. Amanda Setton (Brook Lynn Quartermaine) - 103 10. Donnell Turner (Curtis Ashford) - 101 Cynthia Watros and Nicholas Chavez were in the top four in both 2022 and 2023. Chavez left and Steve Burton returned to once again become the second male lead. Watros was down 48 episodes because Nina broke up with Sonny. Tabyana Ali was down 40 episodes because Spencer was around for Trina anymore.

Esme is winning. Ava is broke and hated by everyone. Esme was the pioneer of Ava hate. Now her son has taken away Ava’s money and castle.

Today's episode is the last of 2024. It will be Kristina's 118th episode, a record for the character.

Chad has looked bored and tired for a long time. He only appears to have energy in scenes with Kristina and Sasha.

I love Ace! I love it that he is now the Cassadine heir. Now Esme has to come back to life and Heather must return and they must take control of him.

By my count, Kristina has appeared in 116 episodes this year. If she appears in two more, she will set a new record for Kristina. She has also done better than Spencer and Trina did last year, who were ranked fourth and fifth on the show. My girl is getting her time in the spotlight.

I am disappointed that Kevin and Ace did not appear in Laura’s Christmas scenes.

I do not miss Finn or Violet. Liz is getting better material without Finn. Lulu waking up was a happy event.

Killing off Dex didn’t help GH.

Donna should hang out with James, Wiley, and Scout.

Welcome back Charlotte!

The next recast will be Avery, who will be aged to be the same age of Danny, Rocco, and Charlotte.
