I can't agree Sin, she has been smug, her telling Zach she would "Get Kendall back, and there is NOTHING he can do about it" is smug

WORD Angela, so much WORD! B)

No it's not, Joe HIMSELF said that Kendall could carry Ian alot longer, that the contractions had stopped, it was finding out Spike was kidnapped that caused her water to break. They showed us that onscreen.

Don't agree with me, baby girl. Stand strong and firm in your own opinion. I don't post to get people who don't agree with me to agree with me. I post to help express the point of view of those who do, but don't want to get involved in the bitchfests, don't know exactly how to say what is they want to say or to just simply add balance to a debate. Fundamentally, I can't get behind all of this Crazy Kendall and her Revenge Plot because, one, it makes Kendall look psycho -- not like a mother in crisis, and two, it's overkill -- which seems to be B&E's mantra lately. It's all based on a lie -- not fact. If Kendall was determined to get an honest confession out of SabineLee by setting her up, making her feel like their friendship was on the mend, letting SabineLee's guard down and getting what she needed, then yeah. Go for it. But writing fake letters and planting them on SabineLee's computer is the wrong way to go about it. I can't get behind it. Zach, on the other hand, I don't mind. He's trying to ruin SabineLee from a corporate standpoint. He's doing what Kendall's doing (subterfuge), but no matter what, in the end, it's going to be SabineLee's decision to sell her shares. If getting her eggs back is important enough to her to sell her shares without getting proof they exist, then that's on her. Caveat Emptor. But leading SabineLee to believe you want to be friends, all the while setting her up for something you know she didn't do because you broke into her house, tampered with her computer and are writing these letters yourself is just a little too much.

Sinclair, are you debating - that Zach's plan is more fair (less cruel) to Greenlee or that Zach's plan is less likely to get him in jail quickly? I don't particularly buy either point, but I'd understand the jail point more.

Nothing, absolutely nothing I believe would set Greenlee off against Zach and his family more than the man who killed her embryos using it as leverage against her to take away "her only REAL baby." It would bring the Spike issues back up to the boiling point. On top of that, she could once again try to put him in jail for that crime once his plan came out. Zach should have used a different element to accomplish this goal, do something like have a messanger come in with papers which Greenlee thinks is nothing and have her sign them - no more Fusion (Kendall did that once!). That would have been smarter, but the revenge stories are about Greenlee's redemption on her victims back so it couldn't be that simple. It had to as JR said, "make everybody feel sorry for Greenlee" worthy.

Kendall is framing Greenlee for a crime she did commit but didn't confess to. She just didn't commit the crime this time, but she did kidnap Spike and her making that decision did change this families life forever; she did talk to Spike in the tone of those e-mails before and after that accident - i.e. their special relationship. Kendall is letting Greenlee believe that they could be friends again to set her up for the fall. Yes it would have been smarter for Kendall to just do this friends thing and trick her into confessing on tape, but the revenge stories are about Greenlee's redemption on her victims back so it couldn't be that simple.

I'm not going to oppose either revenge trip just because the writers are taking it "stupid" to redeem the character they took over the line, Greenlee. Greenlee has done nothing in terms of redeeming herself to make me oppose either character trying to accomplish the goals they are. If Greenlee had confessed to Kendall and the cops and offered to leave Fusion and leave Kendall alone out of common decency, that's another story. Right now my only issue with their plans is they're both risking getting their a**es in jail with the fire they're playing with to "get" rid of Greenlee.

at least Babe wasnt let off and had to pay. We didnt see it as it happened off screen, but she got probabtion adn community service not to mention she lost custody of her son, which was the worst punishment for her. Greenlee hasnt lost a lick of anything. I was hoping that Zach would manage to find some way to at least remove her from Fusion. The way the story was presented, she couldnt be brought up on criminal charges, but I think Ryan and Kendall could have attempted to file a civil suit against her

    • It's a sweet scene. I'm requesting Love of Life, please.
    • Paul, as for me, in general I am VERY interested in reading these. So, from my POV, you could post one every week & I would be all smiles. As for what shows I would be interested in: everything but Valiant Lady, Portia/Life, 5 Daughters, Another Life, that's it.   
    • I have read numerous places on line that Leslie/Dana may somehow be connected to one of Anita's old band mates that she obviously has issues with.  They were both from Chicago and Leslie/Dana stated she gave birth to Eva there.  If this is true it could add another dimension to this storyline.
    • Not only that, but Tony, Annabelle, and Jim had zero skin in this game. The Fishing Trip story had a huge impact on the Reardons and Annabelle because it was about THEIR relatives and how what happened to them shaped their own lives. People directly and indirectly affected by this--i.e. Alan, Amanda, Philip, and even Lujack--weren't involved in this at all, either because they were off the canvas or involved in other stuff. I mostly admire Long's talent for using the past to enhance her stories in the present, but this one was a huge turkey. We saw Brandon old and decrepit dying on screen. Even if we were able to suspend disbelief, why wouldn't he have wanted revenge on Lucille, who tried to kill him? If he wanted to go live with his Barbados squeeze, who would have cared about that by then? In the end, it had little to no impact on the larger story because they were too chicken to bring in that branch of the Spauldings into the main story (until later).  Just a really bad storyline that mainly existed to stretch out the GL stints of the actors who played Tony, Annabelle, and Jim.  
    • Agree to disagree as to Lois's return. Moving from the specific to the general, IMO, successful: Tracy, Lois, Lulu so far & Lucas so far. Questionable: Lucky. But I do not believe that having a romantic partner at all times is the be all & end all of things.  Reminder about how we got from there to here with Rena: Everything was a part of the great unknown, whether they'd like her or vice versa, so they by intent signed a 30 episode deal. Before they even got to the end of those 30 episodes they knew they really liked each other a lot & so they with mutual satisfaction (we think) agreed upon a handshake open-ended deal, which as far as anyone knows is how it still stands. What is good about that? Neither side has YET wanted it to end. What's bad about that? Maybe it is a little weird.  Now, it seems to me that Lois is not going to have time for anything or anyone at all EXCEPT the fallout over the GIO reveal for the upcoming future days & weeks & I do think she is going to take the brunt of a LOT of people's anger. In a way that has begun this week with Tracy being SO UGLY to her.  About Jason & romance. They're not writing any. If I understand what he's said from that podcast they never had any intention with either Anna or Sasha. Also, if they had wanted to write either of those, he would've been against it, although he realizes it's not up to him. (Finola has expressed same at fan events, etc.) (Others who have similarly stated their "preferences": Sonny does not want to be with Carly. Carly does not want to be with Sonny. So, these preferences Jason, Anna, Sonny, Carly, they all work out & none of them is having the show want those pairings either, so, again, works out.  About these writers & romantic couples, they spent a year blowing up every couple that existed. Now a few months has gone by & they have YET to create even one new couple. The only thing that has come close is Lucky & Liz. 
    • I find it hard to believe that they actually watched the same version of "Steel Magnolias" that I did. Are we sure they didn't watch the horrible re-make?

      Oh dear lord, did you have to remind me of that?!! That was definitely not Sally Field's finest hour, and Abby (Maura Tierney's character) was surely one of the most depressing characters ever written for tv or film. I'm not sure she cracked a smile even once during all her years on ER.  
    • I always thought Lois was such a unique character and considered her supporting her first run.  She was in a lot of different places on the canvas, but I don't think she had more focus than Brenda or Robin at her peak. With Ned basically out of the picture Lois doesn't quite have enough ties on the canvas to make her relevant and the show has done very little to give her new relationships and friendships.  She's stuck in the Q mansion most of the time. Oh, I agree it's a problem across the board for GH.  The only stable couples on the show are Brook Lynn/Chase and Portia/Curtis.  Unseen Olivia/Ned and Kevin/Laura are happily married I suppose.   Eventually I am sure Liz/Lucky and Dante/Lulu will get their romance, but is there any other couple that's even rootable?   I can't recall an era when Jason, Carly, and Sonny were all at such loose romantic ends at the same time.   Which is fine.  However no other romance besides Willow/Drew is being focused on.
    • https://www.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/shortland-street-fears-speculation-grows-about-shows-future-amid-industry-struggles/T2GECWXTI5AD3AMEV46YYYUE6E/ Still a big cloud over whether the show will get another year.
    • I had hoped they'd pair her with Michael Knight. They had a nice chemistry and he's been one of the better random castings on GH. When it comes to Gio, I found the scenes with Dante to be overdone. It's obvious they're trying to set up conflict for the reveal but I don't think that was needed. It actually made me less excited for the reveal and killed any interest I had in Dante and Gio forming a bond.
    • He also lost the woman he was going to marry, under very sudden circumstances. They are probably surprised Rena has wanted to stay. I think Lois works OK in her current capacity, if they allowed her to have more of a point of view, a bit more life of her own, and not just the reason for Gio's paternity being hidden. The character always felt very thin to me and on paper this dynamic with Tracy, Brook Lyn, Gio, visits from Gloria could be better for her than how overly centered she was on the canvas the first time around. But as of now she could be better used.  Somehow the show that was revived due to supercouples seems completely alien to romance. The older cast has this hardest but even with tiers who are younger or middle-aged, they've really dragged their feet about Liz and Lucky, they have contorted themselves in trying to figure out how to pair a man with Joss, Kai and Trina barely get focus...and others I struggle to remember. They also blew up Sasha/Cody so now I guess we're meant to be waiting to see if she finds true love with Jason? The show is so hesitant and when you are this hesitant it means you are incapable of writing romance.
