JJ is rocking this storyline right now, I am so intrigued now. Loved his scenes with Lulu and Luke this week. All three of them did really well. Liz and Nik are such liars and hypocrites!! I cheered at the end of Friday's episode when Lucky was like, "Your screwing my brother" SCORE! Monday's show can't come fast enough...he's going to rip those two lovebirds into shreds!! :rolleyes:.

This Lisa girl............so not feeling her this far, and I don't think I ever will....

Lucky Spencer is my hero! He is on FIRE today. I loved that he called Liz out on being a cheap slut and how she only uses him as someone to take care of her kids. Good for him. He broke my hear when he touched her face and asked what happened to the girl he found in the park bc he'll always love her.

OMG, Carly COULDNT wait to go gossiping about Liz sleeping around. She is loving every minute of this

JJ killed it today!

I have been waiting for someone to tell Liz off like that for years and the pay off was amazing. It's been so long in the making and coming and Lucky said everything perfectly.

I can't even pick which of the lines are my favourites. Carly couldn't have shown up at a more perfect time, and the glee she took in Liz's downfall was priceless.

ITA with everyone, Jonathon Jackson was phenomenal today. Such a raw performance, Emmy-worthy indeed. I think the Emmy should just be reserved for him right now! Rebecca Herbst was great today to, those tears were real, such a great performance. Tyler Christoper, I'm sorry, but no! Not what I was expecting, he was just a mess as Nik today! He was just standing there looking like a robot, I only liked him in that scene where that tear was fluttering down his face! Totally not what I was expecting from him.

Loved when Lucky told Carly that Liz and Nik would be "Rutting like farm animals" LOL! I was laughing so hard on that part for some reason. Wow Lucky used every dirty word in the book, I was shocked!

OMG, that was awesome. I used to love Liz but this SL was really destroyed the character and everything Lucky said was a perfect distillation of what most fans were thinking.

I'm hoping Lucky's reaction to Nikolas -- which was underwelming compared with his tirade against Elizabeth -- is merely a delayed reaction, because Puffy needs his ass KICKED. And Tyler needs his acting asss kicked because he gave up emoting towards the end of his scenes with Jonathan Jackson. I mean, I know this is a badly written triangle which puts Nikolas in a bad light but, as Steve McQueen once indicated, true acting is really about REACTING. I don't know why TC couldn't work up the energy to give a little more in his scenes -- I would have thought he would be psyched when told that boring ole Nikolas was turning to the Cassadine dark side by running down Rebeccily and chasing after his brother's girl. Here? Nothing. And it's a waste because TC was once an actor. Becky Herbst is a little limited in her reactions but I did not for one moment doubt her pain and humiliation.

I feel a little bad for jumping on the JJ bandwagon, though, after the way GV was turfed out of GH and the way Tony Geary essentially sold him down the river and said he wasn't a good enough actor. But I can't deny that JJ turned in an amazing performance yesterday. His scenes with TG were even stronger than the confrontation itself, I'd say.

I don't think this storyline has destroyed Liz. I think it goes back to the Jason and Liz ish and how she was held up as some paragon of virtue while Lucky was demonized.

I thought the reveal was a little much but I think it was pent up from years of Lucky being the sap and Liz being this madonna angel type. I find it funny that Liz still needed a man(Nikolas) there to speak on her behalf. How it's not her fault yadda yadda. I also find Becky a limited actress but I thought she actually did well yesterday for the little she was given.

I haven't really watched the show at all. JJ really never did it for me but I have to say that the Luke and Lucky scenes yesterday were better than the reveal and JJ and TG were great together. It's kind of disheartening to see it took JJ returning to wake TG up from his slumber. And JJ? Well the pets always get to call the women sluts, whores, etc. Yesterday was all emmy bait but I will again give JJ credit for waking up TG and he killed me in the last scene with Becky too.

TC. I doubt he's gotten much in this story so I won't comment other than to say he's still the most disappointing actor next to MB on this show. But I actually think TC has more talent and like SBu, MB, IR, they all know no matter what they do they'll have a job so why bother is the impression I get. Oh well so be it.

"Elizabeth ran up 15 flights of stairs to seduce Jason"

LMAO...glad that one hasnt been forgotten

OMG, Lulu going off on her at work in front of everyone was great. Did anyone else expect for he to slap Liz when she first got to the hospital? I was waiting for it but her tirade went on a bit long. Dang over the past 2 days Liz has been called every word in the book. Slut, whore, bitch, tramp, skank....the list goes on

Oh ShrewLu do STFU, you are in NO position to throw stones at anyone, she who stole Georgie's man and got knocked up by him :rolleyes:

Oh and Carly needs to STFU too, pot meet kettle

Are you surprised? I'm not, typical mysognistic attitude towards women when it comes to people like Guza and Pratt and even Frons

    • I feel like the lawsuit storyline was resolved quickly because the show didn’t want to spring for more sets.
    • It's been a while, but we have seen the foyer to Bill and Hayley's house as well as the exterior entrance to their house. The foyer was first seen in the premiere episode when Hayley met Vanessa at the house.
    • There's still a year or two before Larkin arrives. Joel is there already. EON does noticeably youthify, although I think they carry it off. Admittedly I haven't seen most of the Jodie stories, which from what people here have said aren't great.
    • I don't mind the actor who plays Brian. He's fine. The problem for me is that Paige seems so wishy wishy. She doesn't seem to have much of a personality at this point so I don't see why Brian would be so besotted with her. She just lurches from one trauma to the next. Granted, it's only been a month, but she's not as vibrant as April or even Deborah who has had minimal screen time by this point.  I do worry about the influence of GH on the show since I'm in fall of 1979 and characters have conversations and there's not the drive to "youthify" the show. However, I think Marceau (sp?) is gone. He was given a rather tame sendoff. How long was the actor on the show? I hope this is not a sign of things to come. I worry the show is setting up a murder mystery around one of my favorite characters and I will be mightily annoyed. I also noticed in recent Search for Tomorrow episodes uploaded to YT that the actors playing Logan and Eliot showed up. I don't watch the show but they were in the screencaps. When does Larkin Malloy show up or has he already left? Joel Crothers hasn't shown up either unless I've blinked and missed him.
    • Dr Linden. She treated Vanessa's drug addiction (although Vanessa seemed to forget that by Henry's suicide attempt) , and she's mentioned during Reva's PPD. Although I can't recall if she's actually shown right off the top of my head. She probably was temporarily shelved when Sonni was a therapist (between her crazy times) And I think Billy sees her after he falls off the wagon after Reva's death.
    • Kinda agree. I have some issues with the sets. Nicole's living room is bland-looks like a display home. Bill and Hayley's is too small and basically hideous. And neither of them have a front door/entrance or staircase. People just appear from the corridor. Those green accents  at Uptown are way too much. Also,Naomi and Vanessa not having an office or a home .
    • Thanks @Paul Raven  That Grainger story always reads like hog-wild melodrama, not very similar to the more subtle stories for Rita in her last few years. I wonder how Lenore played the material.
    • More from 1976 Lynn, apparently making every effort to overcome her alcoholism, accepts a baby-sitting job. However, when the baby starts crying, Lynn begins to get nervous and takes one drink, then another. By the time Bruce and Van arrive home, Lynn is on the floor, ineffectually trying to find the doctor’s number, sure the baby is ill. When the mother arrives; she vows to let everyone know what goes on in the mayor’s house.Bruce insists that Lynn has to go, but Van, learning that Lynn can’t remember drinking the cooking sherry, calls Joe to report Lynn’s blackouts. Joe wants her institutionalized but gives in to Van’ s pleas that Lynn needs loving attention. Eddie has sent some of Felicia’s work to a New |York gallery owner and reports to Charles that Lisa Cooper wants to exhibit Felicia’s work. Charles refuses to tell her this and later admits he feels he has “cowed”her attention because of his being confined to a wheelchair. What Charles doesn’t say is: that he’s plagued with fears she’ll leave him for another man. Felicia is exuberant as she starts painting again. She tells Charles how she feels about it, but, jealous of anyone or anything that takes attention from him, Charles tries to undermine her confidence. Eddie finally professes his love for her. He will be happy to step forward if she will only let Be and admit that they belong together. Charles tries to stop Felicia’s ‘trip to New York by making her doubt her own work, and when that fails, he finds business reasons at his bookshop to keep Di, his ex-wife, who is running it for him, from accompanying her. Felicia finally decides it’s not going to work and tells Eddie they might as well call it off. Instead, he arranges for Lisa Cooper to come to Rosehill. Charles is rude and insulting to Lisa when she arrives at the house to view Felicia’s work, and his derogatory remarks about shady gallery dealings prompt Lisa to tell Eddie that living in such an atmosphere could permanently stunt an artist’s development; if Felicia is subjected to this indefinitely, it’s not even worth Lisa’s while to take her on as a client. Felicia finally decides she can’t be torn apart any longer and must accede to Charles’s demands. She tells Eddie her career is over and she won’t paint any more, breaks down in his arms, crying bitterly, then pulls away, unwilling to acknowledge that her feelings for him are deeper than she dare face. Charles is delighted when she prepares to dispose of her art supplies, insisting everything will be fine once she has accepted that this part of her life is over. But she cannot do it. She promises him that he can set the limits and terms, but she must paint. Arlene discovers that her mother is planning to avoid the surgery she needs, and the accompanying medical bills, by leaving Rosehill and moving in with her sister Dorothy out west. Arlene manages to prevent this by calling her aunt and telling her the truth about Carrie’s condition. Dr. Tom Crawford has been footing the costs of Carrie’s presurgery tests, but Arlene knows that Carrie won’t like this. So she tells Carrie that David Hart, the son of Meg’s late husband, the former mayor, has heard about their plight and forwarded the money as a gesture of friendship, to be repaid when possible. To convince Carrie that she does indeed have the money, Arlene asks Ray to just lend it to her for a few hours, so she can convince Carrie and then immediately return it. Ray instructs her to get dressed for a night on the town and takes her, out implying that the money will be waiting at the end of the evening. When Ian Russell happens to join them, Arlene doesn’t suspect anything is afoot, but when e Ray suddenly leaves, she becomes furious, realizing what he’s done. But she finds Mr: Russell a distinguished and cultured man, and decides there’s no harm in having a drink. After cocktails and stimulating conversation, Ian suggests that they go to his place, and Arlene agrees. But when they get there, Ian matter of factly suggests that they skip the preliminaries and get on with it. Ian is embarrassed and annoyed to discover that Arlene is not a professional call girl and that Ray didn’t explain to her the purpose of their |meeting. He is apologetic and solicitous, until Arlene, explaining why Ray felt he could pull this on her, mentions her sick mother in need of an operation. Ian starts to laugh at this overworked standard line, and a livid Arlene storms out of his apartment. Thinking it over, Ian decides he’s more intrigued with Arlene than he is annoyed at Ray, and calls Ray for her telephone number. But Arlene is not delighted to hear from him, and he has to use a good deal of soothing charm before she agrees to have dinner with him at one of the better local restaurants.During dinner Ian again apologizes for his mistake, and he gives Arlene a diamond pendant as a token of his gratitude for her forgiving him. Ray arrives to interrupt an otherwise enjoyable evening with a business matter, and quietly reminds Arlene that Ian is his customer and she’s not to cut herself in with him. At home, Arlene examines the pendant and is convinced that it’s genuine. She hides it in her dresser drawer, unable to bring herself to show it to her mother.
    • LOL!! That's funny.  I actually thought he got a little better.
