WOW! Those last 5 minutes were intense, as well as the previews for tomorrow. Can't wait!

Cameron Mathison BROUGHT it today - he had me tearing up at the end. I haven't felt this bad for Ryan in forever. You go boy!

I know I'm in the minority - but I'm totally 'drinking the kool-aid' or whatever cute little cliche you want to use. I am feeling for my girl Greenlee - granted, I am totally rooting for Spike and Zendall and their baby #1 - but I really do still have a soft place for Greenlee Smythe and today I found myself rooting for her to survive. I LOVED the retro Millicent/Greenlee flashback. It was so Cold Case with that music and lighting. Anyway - even though Millicant may have been De-SORASed, that's ok! Hell, I'm just happy they haven't forgotton about that old, cold bitch! Keep bringing that history alive! Go 'head!

Leven was way impressive with her coked-out act today. Those first few scenes with Adam were dynamite. I loved Adam's line "Is it cold?". But of course Jonathan had to ruin it all for me. I just don't get why he has to bully everyone. He is such a threatening accuser....and I hated how he treated Adam.

Great episode! I can't wait to see more of B&E's work - and see what other good storylines they can come up with in the near future.

I am so behind in the online world this week. Been so busy. Let me tell you what my thoughts are on B&E's first official script.

I thought the show was well written and directed as some of you have said. I though did feel the Greenlee flashback party went on far too long.... and Greenlee's eternal struggle for that phone! Argh! It took too long. That was my only real complaint. I maybe felt a bit of sympathy for her for one second but as soon as they flashed to Kendall that all disappeared. How on earth can Greenlee get past this? I dunno, B&E have quite a feat ahead of them... wait and see I suppose. I had to laugh when the paramedics all crowded around Spike and Greenlee is just left lying there.

Cameron Mathison gave the best performence of yesterday's show. Bar none. Cam really upped his game and proved to us he can act. I loved his portrayal of Ryan yesterday. It was more than just the classic stare.

Erica's Kane Women speech... awesomeness! And Kendall (Lish) had her A game too, everyone did really.

Overall impression, intense, emotional (I cried) and definitely impactful. It left me craving more.

I was impressed that B&E reactivated Greenlee's motivations on their first day, showing that they get the character more than McT ever did.

I too thought that the casting of Margaret Reed as Millicent was odd, especially in the second flashback where Greenlee was supposed to be a teenager, although I have to admit initial excitement at seeing ATWT's Shannon again.

I also agree that Cameron Mathison was the best actor in this episode. He finally showed true emotion for the first time in years!

    • LOL - this is a perfect description, and that's what I loved about it! May be a bit campy, but it immediately caught my attention in a good way.  I'm not familiar with the Fishing Trip storyline, I'll have to look that up. I've noticed that about Josh, which has made him less attractive to me overall. He just yells a lot when he's not happy. Wow, Reva was married to HB!  LOL - "Always... eventually, and again"
    • I love your ideas. I would love to see Jack grown up this confused unhinged individual. He should hold a grudge against both Brooke and Taylor.

    • Lois's return has been a bust. So disappointing that the writers have never written for her. As with Tracy, the pool of GH vets is so thin, there's no one to pair her with. Doubtful they would go to the trouble of properly recasting a legacy character and then sticking  him with Lois; they're obviously not that invested. If she wants to be on this show, it'll be as a noisy grandma who stays in the background. 
    • I love me some Anita and TT. They need to give her a good storyline and I know that it's coming. 
    • @Franko Thanks for tagging me. A few days ago I was talking in another thread about the rise of "snarky" critics for TV shows in the '90s online recaps, but this is just more along the lines of a mauling. There's also the unspoken reality that films like Steel Magnolias were seen as movies for women, so therefore they sucked. Pauline Kael also had her share of blunt, at times incredibly nasty remarks, but the vitriol is often balanced by her love for film. I'm not seeing that here.  With that said, the comment about Field's work becoming unbearable describes how I felt when I tried to sit through her and Maura Tierney on ER. 
    • I skipped most of Daniel too. I think it's awful he has kids with Nicole, Csrky5 and Chloe and Brady, Bo and Philip do not.

    • Today was very focused on Bo and his illness.  I’m liking how everything is ultimately tied together, even though everybody doesn’t know it yet. The EJ connection seems a little sudden and random though. I’m guessing that that was not on Ron’s agenda. And I’m not really sure why any of these rich people couldn’t help the hospital months ago lol  But I really like how the whole sepsis drug thing is being written a lot more realistically than what we’ve grown accustomed to with Dr. Rolf and all of his wonder drugs. They’re definitely putting more of an effort into this storyline. It feels more real.  Philip was a little whiny and self-pitying today, but I also feel like the writing has improved for him as well. He’s coming off less like a villain and more like a tragic hero. I enjoyed his scene with Stephanie and hopefully it means that at some point, we’ll get a revival of Philip/ Stephanie/Alex. Tying it to Stephanie’s novel could be really good. And, the dorkiness of Xander and Sarah was really sweet too. I’m looking forward to their weekend together and what secrets may or may not come out lol
