Too many freaking babies. Every scene either had a baby or was about a baby. I wish they all would be written out along with the 14 other children who weren't on today.

I have been on a GH break since the Fluke story ended. Roger "I have no talent" Howarth has been on non-stop and now he was sharing scenes with TG. Since as a rule I FF every scene he is in I was now FFing the only story I was interested in so I sort of skipped the last few episodes. The Michael anger was good but the whole story is ruined because it is about baby 502 of a series (collect them all!) and I got all my child drama needs out of the zillion episodes last week starring Spencer, Emma and whoever.

Any soap that has more children than adults is by definiton crap, and this show has a good dozen characters under 18. It is enough.

I disagree completely. A character being on doesn't mean they are in a story. Carly was on screen non-stop for 15 years but I am hard pressed to name a single story she actually had outside of sweeps events. She was just on discussing her usual BS every day.

This was an actual story, a mystery about Fluke. It had some dramatic structure to it, red herrings, good vs evil elements, and involved many characters from Ric and Liz all the way to Julian and Jordan to Tracy and back again. The story ended but Luke still has to have something going on. I liked the mystery a lot and I (and most people who ventured a guess on this site) was clueless almost up until the very end. The villain was caught, the story was ended. Luke getting therapy really isn't a story but it might be interesting. I don't see anybody on GH currently involved in a story, just a lot of characters discussing what they think of each other. That was GH's idea of a story since 2001 but that really isn't a story.

I dont see what your first paragraph has to do with anything. I didnt state that Luke is in a story simply bc he is on screen. Its simple. His story has not been resolved. He's been this crimelord in PC for the past couple of years and we have no idea why? We still havent been given any answers as to whats going on with him. Does he have DID? Did he just snap? Whats the source of his crazy? Why is he after Sonny? This is all stuff that goes back to what we have been watching onscreen the past year or so. The story is ongoing

No one on this show is in a storyline? People are in storylines. Whether they are in good ones is a different issue. But if you think this show has no storylines then theres nothing more to say here

      5-16   Build, build, build. So much of it going on and not bored by any of it. A story continued to be the fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal. And I'm happy to see that the fallout made it all the way through the week with C plots being built up to B plots. And then little subplots (Dani's business, Vanessa and her roleplaying games) to keep in mind.    Now that I've watched it several times...all I can think of seeing Silk Press Sheila with NuTed is hmmmm. Honestly, while I felt Trish and Maurice had chemistry, I always felt character-wise that SilkPress and Maurice's Ted would never get back together. At most, I could see them having hate sex. However, SilkPress with Keith's Ted...how to word this...I feel like...in spite of all of her scheming...she has a chance of getting him back given how Trish and Keith interact with each other. And I feel like she's giving 90s DAYS Sami Brady with Austin Peck's Austin where Sami would be playing it to the hilt and Austin...even when he knew better...would STILL be falling for her tricks. Or even when Sami would be somewhat redeemed and he had a 'right' to like her, it would end badly cuz she did something. That was the vibe I got from the SilkPress/NuTed scenes. Keith's Ted definitely came across as a romantic lead in a triangle versus Maurice's Ted where even though he messed up, I saw him only having eyes for Nicole. So...Hmmmmmm. Mind you, I don't see Keith's Ted as stupid/dumb like Austin Peck's version of Austin on DAYS.   Kat being on the case and looking into Laura's accident and giving her recording to Jacob also continue to spin the story into its next logical direction...even if Kat has it tagged on the wrong person. The walls may be closing in on SilkPress, but like she said a while back...she still has tricks up her own sleeves. And I just know the rivalry between Kat and Eva ain't over so this is just another match to the fire. And it'll be good to see Jacob in cop mode. Then Nicole still dealing with her own feelings and wanting to sell the house. Good scenes with her and Vanessa.   And while that was all going on...the plots around them...   1) MARTIN'S SECRET. I have enjoyed how Bill's little seed has been growing in Smitty's mind. And Smitty's being in reporter mode. His scenes with Nicole to see if he was right to be second guessing himself was well-done. I didn't get it at first viewing, because I would think he would be happy that Martin backed down. But I'm seeing it through his reporter eyes, and I get it. And of course, I live for Smitty's scenes with Bill. And Bill is just getting too much glee with messing with Martin and Smitty.    2) ANITA'S STORY. Yassss!!! Oh, Vernon...how I love you. I really enjoyed seeing him slowly coax Anita into calling yet another bandmate. I felt CD and TT were really giving how a relationship can be. And I enjoyed it. Of course, I enjoy that it's clear that Anita wears the pants in that relationship...not that Vernon don't have his moments. They just complement each other so well.   3)MS. JUNE. Outside of the fact that I thought that surgery happened too quickly, good to see her out of surgery. Not to mention seeing Nosy Nurse. Say what you want about her ability to get the tea, but she's really great at her job, and it's great to see.    Well...Doug still has a week. Dani and Pamela are still working on a business. Vanessa is still playing. And it's nice to see those threads still around. But not a major focus yet. And it all still flowed.   And of course...a Friday cliffhanger with Jacob taking Silk Press Sheila down to the station.   So great week of soap overall for me. It doesn't seem like today's episode is going to be loaded on my system until tomorrow. But I guess that is what apps are for.

      It's sad she can't be a part of his on-screen tribute somehow.

      I feel the same. I didn’t expect to care about them but the chemistry is strong and I’d love to see them go public and try to make it work.

      Keith D. Robinson has a lot less screen presence so far than Maurice Johnson had, but I think he's probably a much better technical actor.  I couldn't be happier we're finally moving along with the caucasians. Andre and Ashley better be f*cking by the end of the week, or so help me, just to move the story along even quicker. That's the second time there's been a hint that Dani will get involved with the Doug/Vanessa/Joey story somehow. Maybe it'll happen in response to Andre/Ashley getting together?

      I have this STRONG feeling that if they put Derek opposite a Kat, Eva, Chelsea, or Shanice, I would NOT be surprised to see him pop and shine. Ashley, on the other hand, has Andre and the actress cannot even sell that pairing. I am really starting to believe that Ashley is the problem and might need to become a year 1 casualty.
