Yep your comment just occurred to me just as Epip acts as Patrick's mother while Felix serves the same purpose for Sabrina...neither has a life outside of this although they did a little something somethin with Epip Stan was her son storyline and when he died, same thing with Felix' little storyline with his crush on Milo...

and yes Agron and Nasir are an extremely interesting couple!

Of course Johnny's exit is to push story for Morgan and Sonny/Connie whistling.jpg I wonder if he still has scenes coming up with LLC or if those were scrapped.

He mentioned something about Sonny having Kristina's community service transferred, maybe she's back in school?

The month isn't over. IA on the second part. I doubt the threads will be this long anymore with many dropping it and moving on over to AMC/OLTL

I tried to watch. Saw a lot of it. Wasn't that thrilled. Missed some. Thoughts are a bit all over the place.

I saw Carly all drunk and AJ harassing her and vice versa. Sabrina and Felix all comfy in Patrick's house with Emma. Felix had a dirty line, I believe, that I quite liked, about Patrick getting 'something wet'. But I was barely paying attention.

TJ looks to be tossed aside for Rafe again. Sam seemed to be an extra, per the norm (not that I'm complaining). Danny is cute. That's about all I got. Sam of course propped Rafe a bit.

I think that's all I really remember. I was pretty tired (been up since 3:30ish) so I was starting to zonk out in between my fast forwarding through the dreck.

I also think I'm confusing Friday and Monday's episodes. They're blurring together for me. I'd love PP to get their hands on GH but they'd just keep Ron and Frank. Maybe they'd be better off a network? They seem to have pretty free reign so I doubt it. They really had such potential as a creative team at times. I wish the show was more tight and focused. It's just too all over the place and there's such a lack of depth. I don't feel anything for these people, really. (Well, I'm quite liking AJ, Liz, sometimes Carly, Bobbie and Lucy for the most part -- and Monica --, Felicia/Mac are nice to see, and I'm kinda not hating on Liz/Nik like I thought I would. Tracy needs to stop screeching about the relish. I kinda hate what they're doing with Tracy, TBH).

I'm a broken record with this but the scriptwriters are TERRIBLE. I think swapping them out would be wise. Talented script writers could make this show at least feel less of a mess balance wise and give us some good scenes. DAYS' plots may be lacking big time, but the day to day episodes are usually very entertaining and tight, when the right script-writers are used (they have a few not-so-great ones and the difference is clear as day).

I'm disappointed just because, even though they lost me a LOT of times on their OLTL, I think they could have honestly done well with GH if they took it as serious as they say they do. It feels like they're going through the motions and things must be so taped out of order and it shows.

Oh dear. Shorty, Horse and Mush Mouth. Thanks for the evidence, with the confirmation of that Rafe creature, proving that I don't need to tune in. Yes... I'm being that bitch BECAUSE MY SHOW IS BACK! :wub:

    • You're probably right, but it's such a mistake to have Dani return to Bill. I do not want that. I like Bill, but that's probably because he's so much better than his garbage wife. Having Dani take back the guy who NEVER stopped cheating on her during their marriage would be a terrible mistake.  Yes, it's a mistake I can see Dani making. That doesn't mean I want to see it.
    • That's funny, I totally didn't think about the possibility that they'll pin this on someone else.  I assumed they'd just roll him into the water.  Obviously, I would not make an ideal hitman. I hope it's not Laura.
    • Andre/Dani, be still my heart

        I knew their booty call hook ups then being friends with benefits were so going to turn into love 
    • Yes it does!! And neglect! They let it drop so long and so often it doesn’t really have much meaning beyond another recurring character killed off. I kind of agree. I don’t want Emma to be SA’d, but he was a creepy professor perv at first, and we could have higher stakes if they let him be a scumbag for longer. Even to add more suspects, like Gio punched his lights out for grabbing Emma innapropriately. Or even better, she punches him, then Gio does too. He had the potential to be fun for a bit longer. I always love it when they do a shooting in the snow on this show lol.

      I went back to see how teen Sami even figured out how to sell a baby in 1993, and the recap is unintentionally hilarious. The exposition is so blunt it feels like the writers drafted it between bites of lunch. Suddenly there’s a teen mom named Karen who sold her baby through a shady lawyer, and somehow Sami just… knows this man and pays him with hospital volunteer money. You can tell they were trying to make the whole thing “plausible” enough, but also knew the baby wouldn’t be gone long enough to justify a real subplot.  I know one thing, if Karen had confided in Jamie, Sami would've never met Steve Miller. Jamie knew that snitches get stitches. Not to be confused with the horrific Stephen Miller, who was 8 in 1993. AND Just to show the audience how shady Steve the lawyer could be, he was played by this guy -- Character actor Terry Wills was cast as creeps on every sitcom in the 1980s.
    • I can’t help but to get drawn in by Dani and Andre but it just angers me that it’s so obvious that they’re not endgame.
    • John and Marlena may have committed adultery, but they weren't going to be smug creeps about it. "Roman, how do you feel about the name Isabella Titania Brady?"
    • -- It's always amazing to me that these "terrible breakdowns" (by writers so bad they shall not be named) are saved by incredible script writers. Every time

      -- Kat is a "spoilt bitch" while Eva isn't??? -- Does Kat go too far with her mouth? Absolutely. But I get it. Eva has done some terrible things and continues to enable her criminal mother while Kat's family and boyfriend DEFEND her and show her love. -- Eva's complaints about Leslie are meaningless, because they're never backed up with anything. I'll take "spoilt bitch" any day before I take "criminal enabling hoe." -- It's nice that Martin accepts Eva, but the way he's handling it is eye-rolling. Eva gets hugs and smiles and full acceptance while Kat is trashed -- to Eva's face. -- Martin is STILL obsessing over the Kat conversation about sex that Samantha heard. Are you kidding me with this? And now Eva offers to speak to Kat. Yeah, very cute that the sister who screwed the other sister's boyfriend is the one with relationship advice. -- The food at Uptown looked pretty good today. Orphey Gene's food has yet to impress me, and I think it's clear that the country club chef is an alcoholic who cannot control his kitchen.
    • At this point, Marlena, John, and Roman all thought Roman was Belle's father. Sami had switched the initial blood tests. When it was time for another round of tests (because Belle was jaundiced), Sami panicked and kidnapped the baby.  Up until January 1994, Sami was the only one who knew that John was Belle's father. Next up were Stefano and Peter, once Stefano read Sami's diary (he figured it would reveal what was going on between John & Marlena). Stefano revealed the truth of Belle's parentage to Roman AFTER Marlena revealed her tryst with John (about two weeks later, to be exact). Marlena and John were the last ones to find out (during February sweeps, naturally). The John Black name was revived in September 1991.
    • The show has been getting better and better. Dani and Andre solidly "coupling" has been amazing. Genie Francis says soaps don't do couples anymore...maybe Dani/Andre can prove her wrong. To me they are the best couple on the show.  Eva vs Kat is always great. The show continues to find ways to keep it going and I'm all for it. Kat annoys me so bad. She is such a spoiled princess and acts it. I agree the comment about wishing Eva had been aborted was low. If that were the case, then why is she constantly getting in Eva's face? Why doesn't Kat just stay away and ignore her completely like she doesn't exist? I know. I know. It wouldn't be soaping.  This Hayley plot to kill Bill now taking a detour onto Izaiah has me curious. Does Hayley even know what she wants? I can't wait to see the fallout for Hayley and Randy....but not too soon.  I am tired of hearing about Winterfest already though. Can we get to it? lol
