As I watch this week’s episodes, I really enjoyed Laura’s swearing in ceremony.

 

It makes me happy to see the show writing a story for and about Laura.  Also, as a viewer for a long time, it was really cool to see her be sworn in as Laura Webber.  Not Baldwin, Spencer, Cassadine or Collins.  Laura Webber.  A great moment for both the character and actor.

 

Wish Leslie had been there.  The reaction shots from her would have been wonderful.

So clearly no one on the GH writing staff has ever read (or even seen) a travel guide. At least the prop people know how one should look, but most of that launch party was just too stupid for words (though Bobbie and Felicia were fun). Why couldn't Lucy's book have been presented as a gossip tell-all (since that's what it is, apparently)?

Yep!  When Sabrina was alive, they had her dismiss the murder with a bipolar excuse.  According to PC residents, AJ's murder was Ava's fault even tho Sonny said in no uncertain terms "Ava was in no danger when I got there...I wanted to kill the son of a bitch".  

 

Benard wants it both ways.  To be a big feared presence in Port Charles (no matter how height challenged he is) but all the residents of PC have to love Sonny.  He is so afraid to challenge himself as an actor and it's one of the things that killed this show!

I was thinking more a sweeps event.  If Anna had it first, and it was a DVX virus, then somehow it is contaminating others.  Maybe Oscar too.

 

Do we think Lulu will be in a coma, or maybe they will revisit the original Ryan story and she will have amnesia like Felicia did at first?

 

The attack on Lulu was the most frightening this story had gotten.  They all need to be shown going forward.  We don’t need to see the heads being chopped off, but the menace needs to be onscreen.

 

Dante’s not being here is just weird after his wife is attacked.

And when he doesn't get his way he shows out at fan events. It's ridiculous.

 

He's capable of delivering still, sometimes, when challenged. But he really hasn't been in close to a decade, and even then it was only brief spurts.

They have Lulu stabbed and don’t even play the story the next day? That’s not some B-plot you can just dip in and out of. The whole town should be reeling because of that. No wonder viewers tune out. Were Luke or Lucky mentioned at all?

 

All the Joscar stuff was FF material and a distraction.

    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
