Ok, you don't get to use the word "prop" any longer!

However, I was pleasantly surprised with today's eppy. It was really good! I even showed some restraint and didn't ff the pets today. It's ridiculous that there are 3 newbies in scenes in the middle of a huge storyline, but eh...

Sean Kanan brought it today! He was excellent!

I really enjoyed today's eppy. Are Craptini on vacay?

"She must have been mine in another life." - Real subtle, Ron.

As per usual, Franco will go crazy again when the situation calls for it. Ludicrous. He's either crazy or he's affected by a brain tumor. Not that it was in any way plausible, but stick to one damn side.

AJ said some nasty things to Elizabeth. Not sure how anyone can root for them as a couple after this display, but I suppose that was the goal, right?

Ironic that Kiki mentioned Ava throwing people under the bus when Ron and Frank do it constantly, to the actors, characters and fans.

The Luke and Sonny scenes were really nice, why don't they interact more often? Being the two male pillars of the show, you'd think they would.

Tracy looks fab in her glittery silver coat!

Was Monday's scenes the first time that Laura met the skank that had an affair with her ex husband back when they were married? Their exchange was a bit too cordial for me. I think it would have been more fitting had Laura thrown her some shade

Don't get the Tracy hate. Saw nothing wrong with her in that episode.

Had to rewatch the episode last night. It was surprisingly good. I didn't even hate Kaka/FrankenTodd/Mumbles Jerome.

I'm just not interested in Luke dying because we all know he won't. I just have no interest in this character anymore, or Laura, who both need massive work in the writing department. Yesterday was actually a decent start.

AJ/Liz were ... wow. That was something. I loved Liz holding her own as AJ sadly self destructed. I hate they're regressing him and making him so ugly, and I just don't think we needed to see him go through this or even go through this just to be redeemed. Again. I don't see the point to any of this. Not that AJ and Liz were that massively interesting together (I'm gonna jump full on to AJ/Carly, because I think they could be great) but I just felt so much of it was unecessary and will amount to nothing.

Maxie flatlining surprised me, actually. I don't know why. I was actually somewhat invested in the episode instead of picking out the overall awful flaws.

Also the first time I finally feel somewhat connected to Emme's Lulu. Barely but I thought she's done a pretty good job lately, though Lulu has noooooothing going for her. No personality, no life, nothing. Just all about a baby and Dante.

Liked the Tracy/Connie scenes. Maybe if they wrote Connie like this all along instead of that stupid Kawny/Kate crap the character could have had more potential. And it's funny how I was bitching about Tracy's writing and then they turn around and give her some good moments.

I want more of this direction and less of the campy, shrill, forced, contrived, done-for-no-reason that we usually get.

I think they meant this is the first time they've met since the rewrites claiming Luke whored around with Holly for years and years while he was with Laura.

Of course the rewrites also claimed Laura was fine with it, so, hey, why not.

No stays of execution here! That bitch got to go and she can take that ridiculous thing she does with her voice with her!

And I hope that new rack is fully paid for!

I, too, hope that we could see more eppies like yesterday. Flowed very well, and I was actually interested in what just about all of the characters had to say. Real human emotion and conversations that made sense as they tied to previous conversations. Here's to hoping Craptini can resist the urge for non stop filth!

I don't think GH ever claimed Luke whored around with Holly "for years and years". If I remember correctly, Luke said it was one "glorious weekend". Gag. And yes, the show also claimed that Laura was fine with it. Gag.

This whole Luke/Holly affair and their son Ethan needs to be rewritten desperately. Luke & Laura and Robert & Holly were huge supercouples and Luke/Robert was a huge bromance that Guza basically annihilated. I'm not sure why Ron hasn't done these big scenes where Luke/Robert, Laura/Holly, Luke/Laura and Robert/Holly confront each other about all this mess. My guess is that maybe it might be rewritten down the road. Otherwise, why wouldn't you take the opportunity to flesh out these big scenes? To give the OLTL3 more airtime? November sweeps? My bet is that it may get rewritten. Or maybe that's just my wish.
