No Adam/Erica/David/Krystal/JR/Tad. That was the big storyline with all the momentum, and it was absent today.

Still enjoying Liza...still hating Jake.

Haha Zach is such a bitch.

I still love me some Annie, but I'm ready for Annie to get back in the mix with the full cast. The Annie/Aiden story is going way too slow. Aiden just needs to go.

My problem with today's show was Jake telling Liza about David losing Leora. LIZA WAS THERE! That was during the time when Liza and Adam were on the verge of ending their marriage, going to Lysistrata for counseling... and Tad was trying to date both Lysistrata and Liza.

Oh - and both Colby actresses have just been mediocre to me. But now, I'm sorta wishing Amber (was that her name?) was back bc she is a better fit to Jamie Lunar than this Brianne chick. I just don't see Adam/Liza's daughter in her at all! Especially now that she's been neutered and matured.

Someone needs to shoot whoever gave Annie that god awful wig. She looked a hot mess

Jamie Luner is fierce! Im really enjoying her so far but I still dont see her as Liza. She should have been Skye or a new character

Did I miss something but when did Zach get his casino back? I thought Ryan owned it

Well Jake wasnt around so he wouldnt necesarily know how much Liza knew. Even if he did, the point of it all was to stress to Liza that David lost 2 children and is hungry for this third

Actually, it goes even back even before 'the writer's' (ugh, so pretentious and stupid of me) Spermgate '98. David's initial run from November of 1997 to February of 1998 ended with Liza, along with Jake and Allie, setting up David to admit to injecting David with Nora Ephron (or whatever the drug is called) to frame Jake. His final scene during that first run was with Liza. 'The writer' was hoping to pair VI with MW based on their work together during the first run when David returned in July of 1998, but then Spermgate '98 was devised. If I'm not mistaken, David was involved because he found out about the switch and was going to use it to bust up Adam and Liza's wedding -- when he got into that car crash that mangled Erica's face, right?

True, but she was there! She walked in on Tad after David had left him tied him to a chair, threatening to go after Jamie since David blamed the Martins for killing Leora.

2 point deduction for my girl, Michelle Patrick. 3 point deduction for Jeff Beldner not catching it.

ETA: Dead fictional baby aside, I hated that name "Leora." I know it was to honor Leo, but couldn't they name that child Leah?

    • I can't watch until later (Canada issues). What is Philip's motivation for stealing the drug? Only plot I cared about today and you did not mention it 
    • Doug III’s first day of work. Hope he does a good job… or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow

      His scenes with Holly were nice though. They’re sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future.  I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how they’re both being tied into EJ’s shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I don’t think Roman is the shooter though either.  I didn’t have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachel’s problems than herself. But at the same time, I’m really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. I’m not shipping them at all, but I’m definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, I’m not so sure about that either.  And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together

    • Some country club revelation thoughts from a casual watcher no one asked for. The Great: Daphnee Duplaix gave the best performance we've seen yet. Nicole's dialogue was also well thought out and felt character specific. TJ Maxx Ted was also pretty good. Trisha Mann-Grant steals every scene she's in. Often without even trying. Carrying multiple episodes worth of exposition heavy soap dialogue with starts and stops and recapping and drama and humor is no small feat and she nailed. Vernon telling Lesliana to STFU.  The Bad: So much of the dialogue for the rest of the cast was overly written. Martin said "You are a vile human being with a hole in your heart!". Marty, what are we doing? It's SO dramatic and sounds so silly coming from this grown man. Do Bill and Hayley do anything but talk about the Duprees? And the nerve of her to get so excited to find out Ted is a cheater when she and her husband are too. There should be a hint of shame mixed in with your glee, ma'am. The Questionable: Coffee and a rendition of Amazing Grace after finding out Nicole was betrayed by her husband. The Duprees are an odd bunch. The stinger of one segment had Anita prepared to lambast Lesliana, when we came back someone else was talking. When Anita eventually said something to Wig, it was a lukewarm at best. And then of course she thought singing a song about something that should absolutely not be extended to her son-in-law. The entire family allowing this deranged woman to speech at them in their own was...nuts. I know she said something about what would the neighbors say but my GOD. Is she just going to be allowed to trespass whenever she feels like it now? The focus on Leslie and her wig usage as an oddity is...odd. I think Chelsea said something like "and she wears wigs!" (while wearing a buss down middle part). Okay? It's just not that odd for a black woman to change up her hair. It's the different names that's the problem. I know it's meant to be humorous, in a throwback soap kind of way, but it fell flat for me.  I'm sorry I find the whole family to be WEIRD. It's like they want us to see them as ruthless yet benevolent, open yet furtive, snobbish yet tooth achingly sweet all at the same time. I cannot get a lock on the family dynamics. Everyone is just there.  I'm gonna cry if this show doesn't start giving us ages (or close to it!) for these characters. Because if Eva is 21-22 then Martin was being given crayons, a soda pop and blinders when he was 15-17 years old. Martin had to have been under 8 for me to buy this story, which would make Eva and Kat late 20s (Martin is at least 35 since he wants to run for president), which I don't think they're meant to be. It's honestly minor but it bothers me. I've mentioned this to @Vee but I think the optics on opening the show with both sisters discovering their husbands of over 30 years are cheaters should've been considered. I doubt there was any intention behind it, no one's rubbing their hands together as they scheme to say the married black men can't stay loyal but how does it look? Maybe it's just me. Honestly it's probably just me!
    • Thank you very much!!!! I really appreciate it!!! I also have read the GH coffee table book from the 90s!!!
    • For a homeless woman, June sure has nice teeth. I agree Ted didn't bring the power in the fallout scenes but to can him and leave Tomas, Martin and Derek onscreen? i'm not looking forward to Martin's secret being revealed and have him flail in the spotlight scenes. Yes, he's got a little better, but... When someone like Timon delivers with every line reading, you wonder how some other casting decisions were made. And I need sunglasses every time characters are at Uptown-is that green paint left over from GL's Cedars Hospital makeover? And for the cliffhanger, instead of the Door dash nonsense, simply have Leslie encounter Vanessa on her way out and push past her to enter. As there is no front door have Leslie barge into the living room, with Vanessa following.  Then Nicole can tell Vanessa- it's OK she can leave them alone.
