I really like Kate/Connie. She's such a classic soap character, and it's refreshing to see Sonny in a new storyline. It WOULD be interesting for Logan to turn out to be their son, which I never thought of before, but I hope Kate ends up with someone else romantically... Ric, perhaps?

There is no way that Sonny and Kate are the same age. Are you kidding me? She looks 30 at the most and he is in his mid 40s. They look like they have about a 15 yr age difference between them, yet they shared a past as teenagers? Huh???

Quick question: what does this man do all day long?

th_robert_guza_jr_01.jpg

Because it certainly is not writing a daytime soap. Guza's not even a Hack, because "hack" implies he'd actually have to be hacking at his keyboard, doing some work. Instead, he's a trifling, plagiaristic blowhard without a single original idea to his name. What's he doing, sitting around styling his toupée while watching DVDs?

The producers of "Friends" should sue Guza's lazy ass for lifting almost an entire scenic concept from the show -- the one where Monica got stung by a jellyfish and had to get peed on to stop the pain. Sound familiar? Admittedly, if any character deserves to get peed on, it's that shrew Carly. But good LORD. If I wanted to watch that scene again, I'd do a search on YouTube.

Then we have GH's newest newbie on contract, Kate Howard. Why write for any of the existing characters, you have when you can just copy "The Devil Wears Prada" wholesale and have some young blonde woman on GH regurgitate La Streep's icy dialogue?

P.S.: I'd actually like Kate Howard if ( a ) Ugly Betty hadn't got there first with Vanessa Williams' Wilhemina, and ( b ) Kate wasn't yet another female inside which Sonny had once stuck his penis. Geez. The Midget Mobster makes Paris Hilton look like Pope Benedict XIV.

Don't even mention that "Departed" SL. Obviously, Scorsese is hardly going to sue since he stole the idea of the movie from the Hong Kong film "Infernal Affairs." At least Scorsese paid the HK film-makers for the rights.

so... i actually may like this sonny & kate thing. i like kate so far and like the backstory. plus the actress can act, and even makes MB seem okay. that in itself deserves an emmy! and shes kinda hot.

maxie/coop.. finnaly something with these two! i love them. i cant wait to see more of this storyline. and i dont care if its a rip off of ther deprated because that riped something that riped something that riped something else off.

i also love the liz jason lucky baby stuff.

and i dont mind the scrubs/nem/jerry storyline at all.

right, because no other show or movie before friends ever did anything like that?

and ugly betty didnt rip off devil/prada? and its not like devil wears prada was an original concept in itself

and again, infernal affairs was the first of its kind? i think not.

Of course soaps rip-off other stuff, but Guza's rip-off is so lazy and transparent. I can understand a SL like The Departed in the context of police/mob on one level, but can they really recereate the physical action and excitement within a budget-strapped, studio-bound soap?

As for Devil Wears Prada, the reason I mentioned Ugly Betty is because UB have already covered that ground in detail. And better.

The Friends thing was lazy. The CarJax honeymoon was reduced to a rip-off of a scene that more than 70% of the US population connect with Friends. Guza has not one original idea. Not one! Except maybe Click-Boom and, God knows, he's been milking that montage ever since.

Meanwhile, isn't Night Shift supposed to be Grey's Anatomy for GH viewers that would rather watch a pale, mob-infested imitation rather than the real thing? :rolleyes:

LOL, I wish his beard wife were writing the show. Meg Bennett did wonders with Sunset Beach and B&B at one time.

Steve Burton got peed on stung by a jellyfish during his honeymoon? :unsure: How come he doesn't get that ground-breaking SL? LOL, cue Sam unzipping her jeans...

      I still say this is Frank's way of saying goddbye to JJ, who brought nothing to the show and was a complete dud for his entire return. He's purposelY been given an awful exit. Is this all Jackson's fault? Most likely not, but I place most of the blame on him. Too many contract demands, too much working around his travel schedule, too many stories he refused to do. GH has WAY too many actors calling the shots and influencing story and hires. We've seen it hurt the show time and time again.

      Yeah, like others have said, Paul took it home for me today. We'd be so lucky to have him back for good.

      I really like the scenes between Dani and Andre today.  Regardless of where this goes or who they end up with.  For now I appreciate that they have honesty with one another.  There's deep truth and vulnerability.  More than before.

      date: Tuesday, June 10 | Gregori J. Martin, Cheryl L. Davis | Phideaux Xavier Andre and Dani continue to use each other for their own personal reasons. I mean, good for them, but the people they truly want to be with are not each other. Anita wanting the temporary passes revoked? Oh, I know that made Sharon mad as Hell. MAD! Tracy said, "Shut up! I'm in charge now!" Bill playing around with child bride, via Ashley... that was kind of cute, but I also kind of wish it were true. Sharon, sweetie, your ugliness continues to shine bright like the ugliest of cubic zirconia. And Tracy, your vulnerability is beautiful; this reunion means so much to you, and it's genuine. That's what I want to see. So, with Bill's right side affected, then his stroke was on the left side of his brain; interesting. Very interesting, and while it's nice that he is making significant improvements, more can and will be done. Rehab, huh? Will it be at-home rehab or at a facility? That's what I would like to know. I appreciate Sharon [finally] letting that ugliness fade and her truth begin to come out. That's beautiful. Vernon continues to be wise with his years and his wisdom, and his continued connections with his grandchildren, especially discussing the past (summer of '69) with Uncle Cornelius, I love this. This is what I enjoy seeing. Dani is catching onto Chelsea's crush on Madison, and I think she approves. So, Shanice was a physical therapist to start? Quite interesting. Wait, so Anita is leaving town? Why do I suspect she's going to come home to some messes she'll have to clean up? Notes: I've loved the muted, neutral tones that Tamara Tunie (Anita) has been wearing throughout, but then we get moments like today where she wears this vibrant pop of colour, and I'm fully in love. Karla Mosley (Dani) continues to shine in her facial expressions when Marquita Goings' Hayley is talking nonsense. She embodies Dani from head to toe, eye roll and all. Tunie and Clifton Davis (Vernon) shine together; it's a natural, old-school kind of chemistry they share as a couple.

      Yeah, I'm thinking that, too. It certainly would be one way to deflect from the embarrassment of being fired early in your contract.

      I was hoping Dani/Andre would get caught in the most awkward way possible. lol.  Shanice is now a PT. Umm...okay. Glad they are keeping her in the mix.  Anita going to Chicago. Is this a way to have TT offscreen for some reason?

      Andrea Evans was not on the show at this time.  A part of me does wonder if this type of story is just thrown in for juicy gossip and didn't really happen.

      No, it couldn't have been her. She left early 1983 (with an actor who would become her husband, and still is, as far as I know). Other names from the era would be Shelly Burch (Delilah), Brynn Thayer (Jenny), and Andrea Evans (Tina). But I doubt any of these were powerful enough to push the eject button on another actress.
