Usually newlyweds on their honeymoon is fun or should be but JaSam as usual put me to sleep.

I'm not feeling NuKate at all or Skate 2.0. I hated all that Bensonhurst memory lane crap the first time but its even worse now cuz I see no chemistry and they don't look good together. And besides, Skate got undercut when Guza started pushing Solivia as the ones who were in love back in the day so to try to resell Skate again after all that is crap.

Wow….. you know it's a pretty sad day on GH when Carly, of all people, is in the only scenes worth watching. Or maybe it's just the dynamic with Shawn.

Michael's face was hilarious - yes Mikey, your mother is a slut and we all know it.

I know they're setting up this asthma thing as a possible foil for Dante's lung situation, but...

Am I the only one (well, the only one of the few of us that are watching) that was waiting for ShrewLu to flip out when she said "I never knew that" when Olivia told her about Dante's childhood asthma?

Olivia: "I remember when Dante was in the hospital as a child for his asthma and --"

Lulu: "Dante had asthma? I never knew that!"

Olivia: "Yeah, when he was a little boy. Anyway, he --"

Lulu: "No, wait! How could he not tell me that?!"

Olivia: "Lulu, it was really nothing. But back to the story..."

Lulu: "How could he do this to me again?! More lies and secrets?! I can't do this!"

Olivia: "Lulu, honey --"

Lulu: "NO! I can't trust him. When he wakes up from having a blood transfusion and a bullet as well as a piece of his lung removed, tell him I said forget it. I can't do this. It's over!"

Cut to three weeks of Dante rolling around Port Charles in a wheelchair with an iron lung, pleading Lulu to take him back, and she's all: "You don't understand how important trust is to meeeeeee!"

Jason and Sam are so horrible and depressing, suicide attempts might actually rise if shown to disturbed people. This is no surprise though, Steve Burton plays an unemotional robot who never is enthusiastic about anything, and Kelly Monaco is incapable of playing anything other than depressed, melancholy and subdued which leads to her whispering line delivery. That love scene they had this week was a joke. They were acting like this was their first time and were proceeding nervously. This seems to be more Kelly Monaco than Steve Burton because a survey of her every love scene will show she always seems to play Sam as on the brink of killing herself after sex with these gloomy faces one expects to see at a funeral.

I won't get into the deeeeeeep and loooooooooooong discussion about Lulu's ruination (whether it was the writing or the actress), but I will say that Dante's been done a HUGE disservice by being chained to Lulu for his entire existence on GH. Seeing Dante with an actual sexy woman -- whether it be from his past or present -- would work WONDERS for the rut that the Dante character's in. Seriously! How many times can we see Dante chasing after Lulu, apologizing to that smug bitch for not telling her things that are of no consequence to their relationship?

Lulu was ruined way before Dante. In fact I have never cared for this baby killer.

I actually loved Lulu and Dante for like 2 months. Then Dante covered up Sonny shooting him and I never saw him the same way again. That totally ruined his character for me.

What confuses me most with this "How can people lie to me???" story is it coming on the heels of Lulu leaving everyone behind to go find the great truth about Luke, ending in a poor woman being murdered for trying to help her. Wouldn't this make Lulu pause, for a moment, about the idea that she must always be at the center of a truth?

LMAO at Alice and Tracy!

Damn this new cop is getting a little annoying. Seriously just standing there until Dante wakes up the night after being shot and having a big surgery?

Wow Matt is such an ass.

Could only watch half due to a special report taking over the last half hour. Will finish watching tonight.

Dante's rut isn't Lulu, Dante's rut is Sonny. Prior to having to prop the over-propped, Dante-as-Dominic was funny, smart, driven, knew right from wrong and had a wonderful manner about him. Lulu was part of that too and it didn't effect him at all. As soon as Sonny shot him and he became officially "Dante", the character started to fail.

Dante is just one more victim of Sonny's storylines. And the list of those victims seems endless. If anything Lulu - by extension - has had to be changed so she can also justify Sonny.

For me the problem is that the show took the Spencers to a very ugly place and they don't seem to be interested in exploring that. I don't know how you can go back from what went on with the family during Jake's death, and the aftermath.

      The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.

      Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.

      I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.

      As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.

      I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.

      So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
