It's another week in Springfield, so come on in an discuss the good and the bad that is GL. It looks like Josh has come to his senses and decided not to have Edmund killed (thank God). How I wish GL had a bigger budget so that characters like Blake could actually get a scene now and then. She and Edmund would be so hot, I think.

It looks like Will pushed James. I'm kind of intrigued that the show is going there. This plot is leaning towards a Good Son type theme (child sociopath), which I didn't think they'd have the guts to do.

Am I hallucinating or is GL so [!@#$%^&*] broke that they have the same little boy playing both James and Jude?!

Why the hell are Beth and Rick at the hotel? Where is the Bauer house? Why aren't they living there? I realize they try to put everyone in that damn hotel but there's no excuse.

I like Reva's personality in recent months more than I've ever liked her, and she has interesting chemistry with Bradley Cole, but I still hate him and everything he stands for.

Lillian. God, I hate Lillian. Always have. You know Justin Deas is screwed when the only option is Lillian.

Beth Ehlers is trying way too hard. I think it's hilarious that they have Harley reeling just at the cover of an MC Escher book.

If Edmund leaves my finger is on the FF for all josh/cassie or sermon scenes till our Dark prince returns.

Lillian is not the only option, damn it! There's Doris. I want to see Buzz bring out her heart. I like Lillian though.

I've always been torn about Lillian. She can be a simpering bitch on occasion and can act even more selfish than Holly (which says a lot considering how neurotic and self-centered Holly could be). Plus, she killed my Maureen.

On the other hand, I love Tina Sloan and if they are featuring her more, it's a good thing. Sloan has always been rather underrated IMO.

I'm rooting for Buzz and Lillian. This show needs a stable older couple. If we can't have Ed and Mo back maybe B&L can fill the gap.

That's the thing about Justin Deas. He has chemistry with almost every actress they pair him with - the exception being Crystal Chappel IMO. I like him with Lillian or with Doris. Of course, the pairing with Doris would probably be a better story, cuz as it stands now Tina Sloan is only on like what, once a month? EW/DK are probably setting up a Buzz/Doris pairing from what I've seen happening lately. It does not seem as though they are that invested in Buzz/Lillian.

IA that Springfield does need a stable, older couple.

I haven't seen yesterday's show yet, but I'm wondering what happened to Alex. I haven't seen her lately. Was she on yesterday?

I loved Edmund/Reva scenes and wanted more of them, maybe Edmund could really be Jon’s dad.

The last couple of days have been so boring. Will needs to banish the phrase "Uncle Edmund" from his vocabulary. Josh is a total moron who doesn't deserve to be a minister. I'm finally enoying Jeffery, but I hope Edmund brings them all down.

Lillian killed Maureen? Did I missed the episode where she revealed how she rigged the brakes on her car (or something)?

No, it was finding out about Lillian and Ed's affair. So I guess you could say it was "indirectly". If Lillian had never slept with Ed, she probably wouldn't have been out driving when she was killed.

From soapcentral's bio for Maureen -

Then one day not long after her fifteenth wedding anniversary, Maureen found a love note from her best friend, Lillian, to her husband. Realizing that Ed had had another affair, a hurt and angry Maureen headed for the Bauer cabin to think. When a remorseful Ed met her there, she became angry and stormed off. Tragically Maureen was killed when he car skidded off the road.

PS - I don't hold Lillian responsible for Maureen's death, I was just explaining how someone might think that way.

I hope Edmund wakes up and everything blows up in everyone's smug faces.

I admit that I haven't watched GL much at all this week. The episodes are still on the DVR, but I haven't felt an urge to sit down and watch because I know that most of the week will feature Reverend/Pastor Joshua and St. Cassie.

Yesterday after work, I tried to watch the Wednesday ITL cuz I heard it had some good Edmund scenes, but I ended up falling asleep! What's going on this week?!? Why has GL become so boring to me that I can't even watch what was supposed to be a good show without losing interest?!?

<SIGH>

I thought Monday and Tuesday were good, but I couldn't make it through Wednesday. That has to be one of the most boring soap episodes I've ever seen.
