You never know. But if they do make Morgan gay, they need to bring back Lucas to be a guide for him. I mean come on, if you were struggling with your sexuality, who would you turn to other than your gay uncle?

If I had to guess, I'd say Carly and Sonny would tell Lucas to stay away from Morgan, or Sonny would say Lucas somehow corrupted Morgan.

My guess is Lucas no longer exists anyway.

I am sure Sabrina will show up to the Nurse's Ball with her makeover.

I don't feel any kind of way about Felix, but I think they were trying to lay it on thick so the viewers wouldn't have to hear a "I'm gay" declaration from him and just get the fact out there. I do know people that act like him, so it wasn't a big deal to me, but carrying the lipstick around work was too much and pointless.

I thought the same thing. I know people that act like Felix. They will ask for lotion or something but they don't go as far as the lipstick thing. Not sure what the point of that was.

Speaking of Q's I want to know what that secret was that Heather supposedly knew and the Q's didn't.

I'm assuming that Jason is still alive

They're trying way too hard to make Sabrina into Lucy Coe. Next thing you know. She'll have pet waterfowl.

Did Lucy start off as Ugly Betty?

She started off as a geeky librarian but was only pretending to be this.

Which, in a way, shows how far TV has come. Do I find his character somewhat stereotypical (understatement)? HELL yes, but it wasn't all that long ago where you had an episode of All in the Family (with Tony Geary and Phil Carey, no less!) where the word wasn't even used, or in the case of Robert Reed or Dick Sargent, had to hide their sexualities in order to keep their jobs on family-friendly sitcoms (and from what I've heard, Reed hated/was ashamed of his orientation, which is just tragic).

So, while I wish that he wasn't so stereotypical, it's nice to see someone who's gay on TV who doesn't have to declare it.

Disclaimer: I don't watch any modern primetime TV shows, so I plead ignorance on characters who have reached this point already.

Kelly T (Dr. Britt) is a pretty competent actress. She delivered those lines to Maxie and Lulu without pause and I believed her. If only her character wasn't so wretched!

Honestly I thought it seemed like she was reading lines from a script, it wasn't great :-/

Lucy started off as a mousy librarian type. So, yeah. Kinda like Ugly Betty.

Are you saying she's got an agenda? Hmm...

Honestly I thought it seemed like she was reading lines from a script, it wasn't great :-/

It came off as stoic and professional to me but to each their own. Either way, her character has a LONG way to go.

I wish someone would hit Britt with a shovel, causing facial distortion. When the bandages are unwrapped, Britt will be played by someone likable, attractive and with better dental work.

OMG I love you :wub: Telling it how it IS. That said, I find her attractive - but yes, the teeth need some work.

This guy is even more stereotypical than my gay friend.

My gay friend who used to dress up like Dolly Parton.

Yet, he didn't even carry lipstick on him in the office where we worked. Nor did he use to ask mine.

and he carries lipstick in his pocket! Why do I get th feeling, this is how he rolls on the weekends?

Characters like this have been on TV since the 70s, at least. It's nice that he's not being mocked by other characters, and he's not, presumably, going to be beaten to death, but that's as far as we've evolved on TV.
