Guza didn't have an exit strategy for that it would appear, and they keep circling the drain. I'm hoping this is a set up to getting them back on their feet. It wouldn't be good storytelling if GW fixed them quickly after what happened to them, and Helena has already observed that the Spencers are falling apart all on their own without her doing a thing, so the acknowledgement is there with the writing staff. I am wondering if this won't be one of those "To the brink before rescue" types of deals. Individually they fall but together - with something huge to focus on - they rally and reunite stronger and better than ever. That's really the only cliche allowed this family at this point. All of them are spiralling out of control and perhaps Luke's return will not only dig his character out of the muck, but will pull Tracy, Lucky and Lulu up with him. Ethan seems the only one with his head above the water at the moment, but that could change depending on what this LIW story is all about.

In the end, GW has said the Spencers are one of his central families, so he's had to create the exit strategy for the group. It will be interesting to see where this leads. I'm thinking it will be very soapy.

Yup - he's got "Little Man Syndrome" in spades. Jerks-R-Us must be wanting their mascot back.

I had only been watching GH sporatically but have tuned out for good. I am not liking the show at all not any part of it and I think the darkness now a trademark of this show has become so offputting and there is just nothing to balance it out and the idiotic slapstic stuff with Tracy doesn't work for me. ANd I have no interest watching where this Franco stuff is going with Sam.

I don't agree Lulu/JMB is not the issue. Johnny became so much more interesting once he was out of that pairing. I am not enjoyiing him much these days but being tied to an actress who is limited in chemistry and can't sell romance didn't help. I didn't particularly care for Johnny and Olivia but I will say BB looked and acted 1000 percent better.

And gee Luke reappears to Tracy while she's getting a massage. Didn't we just see one of his more recent returns play out the same way?

*gasp* JaneAusten I could not disagree more with this! I loved Johnny and Lulu! IMO they were so good together, I think Guza made a mistake breaking them up actually. I thought Lulu and JMB was at her best during that time & some of her best moments were with Johnny. I'm a broken record here but Johnny and Lulu on the run in Summer 2008 had me hooked on GH. I will forever defend & love that time (Jun-Oct 2008) for GH!

^^ It's an interesting dichotomy. Johnny worked best with Olivia IMO, but Lulu worked best with Johnny (although Dominic was absolutely wonderful too… wish he was still around). There was none of this moralizing that we currently see in Lante, just two young people from screw-up families trying to come of age.

I also loved the way Johnny respected Tracy. There was something truly decent in that, even if he didn't agree with her all the time, he always knew and honoured how much she loved Lulu. I see shades of that now as Johnny tries to figure out what Anthony has planned for Tracy.

Let me clarify. I'm not saying Dante's rut is Lulu (nor am I saying it's strictly Sonny)... I'm saying getting rid of her and putting Dante in a fresher pairing with another, more interesting character would help storytelling for the Dante character. Maybe this "Dominic" aspect will come out in Dante if he's with a woman who isn't stunted at an emotional growth of 12 years old.

Thanks!

Nope! I've just been crazy busy these past few days and haven't had much time to get online. That was a good interview, but I was surprised he didn't ask her about a possible return to GH or if she'd been in contact with GW? It seemed like such an obvious question to ask.

She looks great here. I hope she is done with the plastic surgery, because she honestly looked really good here.

Ugh I can't with ShrewLu's miserable ass. Your boyfriend just survived getting shot(again!) and you're now engaged, stop being such a debbie downing sourpuss.

I'm surprised and disappointed Ronnie hasn't been offed yet, hate him.

Michael is so gosh darn annoying as Sonny's wanna be mob bitch, I wish they had kept him at ELQ.
