Smh.

Not so much flop as the logical ones are out of bounds so they were going to pale in comparisons anyway. That said...the propping and regressing is not at all helping Britt. So I too feel Frank was meaning to an end with her, too. If so...she can go now.

Wacka wacka!!! jk. Seriously though...the bold. Tell me she didn't knowing how Jason feels about his son.

MMMMmmm but NOPE. It was driving me crazy so I finally had to look him up and AHA!!! The Lead in MIDNIGHT TEXAS. LOL. Which I watched. Josh Kelly on GH was in Season 2.

Yep. Pretty much. Degrassi forever!!!

Side note...loving the new avatar. It makes me think of Madonna's song Revolver.

Not at all. I've even turned against them and I liked them the first time around. She just seems like she's stuck in a skit place while Jason has made so much strides since his return. So much so they don't even fit. Which is a shame because at first during her return, I could see it. Very much below him as it is currently written.

Wacka wacka!!! jk Seriously, I hope it stays a IF and not a WHEN. Though with all the faves dropping in here and there, I wouldn't be surprised. Heck, all we are missing is The Child We Don't Name and Gladys.

Of course, now that Val is officially back in town, he is immediately back in the credits. Ugh.

Same. All I like about Eva at this point is Ambyr's hair.

12-16 Much better if still a bit meh. It's all about the Anita storyline. And it is starting slowly, but surely. I still feel like all this stuff with Tomas is going to be his exit storyline. At least we got some Kat/Chels scenes out of it. And RR really has great comedic timing that they should lean into more. I like this next move in Hayley's storyline. No doubt. The only thing that I really did not like is Vanessa as a weeping widow. Love her or hate her, she always had some feistiness or strength to her. It has just drained away, and I don't like it.

Yep. Pretty much. Bring on that exit storyline.

hehe

It's coming!!!!

It is great to know soaps still brings families together.

I agree with that. I remember that SJB Carly I always felt like had an underdog vibe to her, but I would get irked when she would come for Robin and be so mean. I actually would react. Deep down, I felt the same. I was also happy that when Carly/Liz started, Liz had more bite to her so it felt evenly matched. I was just joking. Though you speak nothing but facts. I was saying...how can anyone compete with Brenda. hehe. While is what happened with the last Lulu recast, too. A shame because Lulu's return story was good and had potential and AH has been a great recast.

12-15 Her name isn't even Hayley??? And here I thought New Girl was someone who Hayley might have actually schemed against. But they were co-partners? Hmmm intriguing. Good to see we are about to get our second Anita story. I'm not sure how I feel about it, but happy to see Anita is getting the spotlight. As for the Joey news...does this mean we are setting up for Joey's exit or his next beat in the step of this show having a villain? Other than that, I found this episode boring actually.

Very much. They can stay pressed.

Hehe. The gift that keeps giving. Honorable mention to Tide.

12-16 Honestly? I skipped the Liam/Hope wedding for the most part. It does help that with my busy December schedule, CBS player will delete them right on off. hehe. I got the tail end of it though. It was okay. Nice to see all the kiddies are growing. And I was surprised that B&B got a promo and Bill proposed to Katie. So far this week is off to an good start. Starting with Sinn. I hollered at how they ended Ridge/Eric with the quickness. And the focus went right on back to the Spencers. Good. I said the last few weeks with them as the focus was refreshing. So I was sad to see the show shift back to the Forresters and their tired storylines. It seems like Brad is going to try to balance between both families this week. So far, So good. And it seems like Taylor/Deacon/Sheila is going to be C plot for now. I have mixed feelings about that. Because it had a good build up until that last karaoke episode.

Finally sat. I just might do it old school. Let's see.

I know both shows...and my love of Shari Appleby and Roswell means I will at some point...but have never watched those either. Though perhaps I saw pictures of him from the Borgias cuz I do love period shows and that's why he looks familiar.

That's how I started, too. I noticed the buzz and tried to sit down to get a feel and saw...yep. I am going to have to pause it until I got time. And loved it.

Oh, lord. Not that rumor again. If anything it seems like the writers will be pulling back from Drew as villain soon. And just keep him obsessed.

Now that I can sit down and have the wiggle room in time. Finally made it into December...and I'll say what I've been saying. I do like that when I've had time during this busy month, that GH has been highly bingeable or good background noise. Let me start with the bad though...where I'm at in my viewing right now...the episodes have that le sigh 'wacka wacka' vibe to it and we know how much that irritates me to no end. It was slight but noticeable enough to mention it. I really and truly wish that if CVE...which is who I feel is the main person cuz it is usually in his episodes...would try a new form in his writing outlines to get the humor he is clearly working for in a way that's funny. It reminds me of Marvel movies where you have a serious moment going on and then...a joke pops out at the wrong time to do so. That said...I did like the mixture of characters said wacky-ness was in. And yeah the closeup on the dogs was adorable. Meanwhile...so I had to smh at the (potential?) Who Shot Drew reveal. First of all, I would say that was Korte if it's going to be Curtis being behind it all. I've said over the last couple of years that of the two HWs Korte really seems to be the one inspired by Drew vs Curtis and it showed in her episodes where she headlines. She has done some intriguing twists that I liked...only for CVE episodes to ruin them. So I fully expect more of the same. Second of all, MS. WU!!!! We know I loved seeing her...the shaky camera work...not so much. I don't like that silly technique dating all the way back to OLTL so Frank...I SEE YOU. In any case...I do like the idea and twist if it's for real going to be Curtis/Ms. Wu behind Drew's shooting. BUT I liked the idea of Willow as the shooter. And that brings me to... ...YASSSS!! And by that...I LOVED that Willow said what we have been discussing on screen. She is no longer in love with Drew. She is USING DREW. The smartest thing she's ever done. Which of course means Dark Willow is still in play...and I can get behind Willow as a schemer. Good to be verified in some way given Katie Mc plays Willow now like she is going to crack at any moment. That said...the downside that I felt to that is that it moves her away from being Drew's shooter which is just good delicious drama as well so it makes me wonder if the writers were trying to find any way they could to wiggle her out of the corner she was clearly heading and just luck onto Curtis. I AM OVER DANTE. Not the character, but his hatred of Gio. It is just so plot-based and it irks my soul every time it comes up. It feels so out of character from what we know of Dante. Worse they used the lamest reason for it. So it will never ring true for me. Though I'm happy to see DZ being used more in family stuff as well as Police Commissioner cuz...DZ. Now...what's currently holding my interest... No surprise, but LAURA, LAURA, LAURA. I've loved each and every minute of what's going on with Laura, Sonny, and Dalton's body. I don't like everything about it, but I think it's a case for me of GF can spin just about any stupid thing into gold and GF doesn't phone in. There's been so many moments major and minor within the storyline where GF conveys soooo much on her face...even subtext and it makes me think to past storylines with her...and I'm good. Like her vs Sidwell which was some great scenes, ending with her breaking down as she saw he had her over a barrow...such a Laura moment. I still feel they are using Erza wrong, but interesting that he and Sidwell are in cahoots. And I love that Kevin is back and Laura went ahead and told him. I was fully expecting her to keep it from him. I can't decide if I'm liking the Sidwell scenes because the plot is moving or because I like the actor. I did like during my wacka wacka episodes that the actor was actually playing against the vibe. Since he's the Frank villain du jour, it was there in the performance, but the actor was giving a menacing subtext. And that was appreciated. My only complaint is that for Sidwell to rise, they had to dumb down Drew as the main villain. I wish the writers understood they could use BOTH in that capacity, but they are probably planning this as to redeem Drew as they are using Curtis/Ms. Wu to redeem Willow. I'm also loving the Portia mess. Curtis and Jordan getting back together has brought out this hellcat in Trina and she's never been hotter. It might be only a plot device, but TA is running with it and I love it. Ava would approve I'm sure. And the walls just closing in on Portia has been crazy. I also loved Nina vs Portia. More please. SIDENOTE...HEY, JOEY BUCH, HEY!!! About time they got him shirtless. That said...like I said before...Carly doesn't need a sidekick to scheme. She does it as easily as she brings so I rolled my eyes at the return of Frank's BFF Val. The scenes were very well-directed though. Awww. That is soooo adorable. Thank you for sharing.
