The whole show wasnt bad. I didnt like the Vienna and Henry stuff. I completely ff all their scenes. Everything was fine. I especially liked the Margo/Tom/Carly/Parker/Jack scenes. I even enjoyed Kit/Jack/Carly/Parker scenes at the house.

Parker's story has been an unexpected pleasure, but Tom and Margo's haggling over Parker is odd considering that they've given no thought as to whether Casey is reformed. Working for the law as long as they have, there's no way they could be that biased for their own child's benefit. Kit is a real hypocrite. She had no problem supporting her kidnapping buddies, but Sam paying the piper for nearly raping Carly is unthinkable. Henry and Vienna could stand to get lost in Montega for a long time.

I like Henry and Vienna, that said, they really really need a GOOD storyline. And you would think with the talented Trent it would be easy. They need to give Vienna her money back and fast. I miss the rich Vienna and I love Henry rich too. I can't believe they can't write for these two. Loving the Parker storyline, it's excellent. Can't understand Margo though. You would think she would be trying to help Jack and Parker. I know she's a cop and all that but still you would think she wouldn't be trying to trip Parker up! That just seems strange to me. And tell me they are trying to get Sophie and Chris together now? Please NO!!!

Boy, it's not that I dislike the Henry/V story, it's just that I think it's stupid. V cutting off sex because Henry mumbles in his sleep? Sigh...and I thought the propping of Katie was bad.

The Casey thing...it's not bad, but I can't believe that Lisa summarily fired the other bartender. Wouldn't he at least have noticed that money was missing right after the owner's grandson helped him? Hello....doesn't the Lakeview have security cameras? And I don't get Ali's bitchy attitude today. Good God, the world doesn't revolve around Hallie. Why should Casey be forced into worshipping at her bedside?

I like the Carjack/Parker/Tomargo scenes...even if I think it's full of procedural errors. And the more Margo tries to say she's "just doing her job", the more I think she's doing a crappy job of it. She's making judgments based on personal information Jack told her over the course of months about Parker. It's almost like she wants Carly's kid to be more screwed up than hers.

I think the answer is simple...Parker's freedom is suddenly at stake. It's easy to like him...he's not a callous recreation of someone we knew, or someone who was just sprung on us. We haven't been beaten over the head with the message "Like him and GET used to it..." Parker has an established history, ties to the old guard, and he's young enough not to have done anything really heinous (unlike the adults who seem to trip all over themselves becoming hookers, meth addicts, or murderers.)

    • If NBC could have for seen the ratings of Lovers & Friends (the replacement for Somerset).. they would have for sure kept Somerset on the air longer. https://jason47.com/days/ratings1976.html  (ratings for Somerset in the final year) https://jason47.com/days/ratings1977.html (ratings for Lovers & Friends short run...getting as low as a 2 rating).

    • I liked them, too, and was really disappointed it never went anywhere. The whole art theft story was ridiculous, but they had a nice chemistry. Certainly nicer than Alan with Christine. With her, he looked like the funny uncle. The worst thing they did to Bolger, IMO, was having Phillip write that DREADFUL novel and dramatizing it while he wrote it. GAG, that has to be in the running for one of their worst storylines that didn't involve wacky things like clones or time travel. Soaps rarely do school storylines, or don't do them for very long. Not the case so much in the early days of soaps, but after GH took off in the late 70s other soaps took their lead and would catapult teens/young adults into adult stories right away. That's one reason Phillip and Mindy ended up with so many ex-spouses--they started getting married really young. They shipped Dina and Cameron off really fast after high school and stuck Alan Michael in a marriage storyline with Harley. Did he EVER go to college? I don't think so. It may also partly explain why Quint and Annabelle had to go, beyond TPTB wanting to do a cast sweep. Teaching is not a profession that plays well on a soap. Quint definitely had to quit being Indiana Jones, because that wore thin really fast, but they didn't do him favors by making him a professor. If they wanted to keep him, they should have done what they did with Amanda (who was in another dead-end soap job, concert pianist)--have him work at Spaulding as one of the major stockholders.
    • Judith McConnell (Augusta) and Denise Alexander (Lesley) were great screen partners on GH.  They got into some stellar arguments in character in the medicine room.
    • He also commented that Brad knows that fans are sick of the constant fake deaths on this show: Finn, Sheila, etc and that it's hard to take this seriously if it's another fake death

    • I just don't think Brad Bell has it in him to actually kill off Liam. He should have killed off Eric when he had the chance. I know John McCook is an original cast member, but Eric is even more useless than Liam. Eric should have died and then it would be revealed that he died without a valid will, so Donna, as his wife, inherits everything, including his shares in Forrester Creations.
    • I think we all will, isn't that how soaps work? lol    
    • ^^ I'll believe it when it actually happens.
