Such a great scene.  The expressions when Ecru appeared were priceless.

Today was the first time I really enjoyed Josslyn in a long time.   As Trina's fierce protector, I finally saw a bit of her mother Carly come out. Just as Carly would go to any lengths for the people she loves.  Eden McCoy hasn't shown claws before, at least not that I recall.

 

I liked Alexis and Harmony's scenes as well. Both women have awful track records with men.  And they can face it. I don't see Harmony as lasting long <cough> Ryan <cough> but at least the character acknowledges that she did horrible things, and owns it.   Looking at you, Peter August and crybaby Renault. I hope she can make peace with Wallow before Wallow inevitably dies  (by the curse of the Michael Quartermaine Corinthos death pecker) Sasha's the only one that survived after the death screw after all.

   So far...

The friendship between Jordan and Portia was working, in an odd, "we both like the same guy, but we cool" kind of way.  Jordan can inevitably return and slip up what Portia was admitting at any time though.  A wise way to let the character still have agency in the story, along with those divorce papers Aunt Stella never mailed...

Phyllis, Phyllis, Phyllis,  why? You had ample opportunity to rid Agnes Nixon Falls of Heinrich August Faison.  All this time I've been singing your praises. I still love you, but I'm not forgetting this.

That would be interesting....

 

Those guards were beating Drew as if they worked for David Hayward and he was still Ryan Lavery.

I enjoyed today's show except for Peter. I feel like that could be a recurring theme lol. 

I enjoyed the scenes where Joss took Spencer to task for how he lied and treated Trina. She really got on his behind, lol. I thought they were entertaining. I also liked how Spencer instantly wanted to know if Trina really said she liked him after Joss revealed that information. That was all he could focus on for a moment there, lol. I enjoyed the way he told Joss that he liked Trina, but Esme had to show up and cut his confession short. Joss can tell that something is off with Spencer/Esme. I also don't think she will tell Trina right away about what Spencer said regarding his feelings for her, because she still doesn't really trust him. I'm looking forward to the next time that Spencer/Trina see each other. I could see Spencer wanting to talk to her and explain himself, but her not wanting to keep distance from him. It will be interesting to see how that plays out and when they might finally get an alone scene together.

I also was glad to see Drew again. I am enjoying Cam as Drew. He's not be shoved down anyone's throat and him and Nurse Chloe have nice chemistry together. I think there is a nice naturalness about her & their interactions together. I am looking forward to seeing more of his story unfold.

Alexis/Harmony confiding/and doing a bit of bonding was also interesting. And I continue to like Sam/Dante and their chemistry together. They could have a healthy romance.

Joss has never been my fave but I do enjoy her friendship with Trina. Loved her telling Spencer that if it came down to it, she'd easily choose Trina over him. That's right girl, let Spencer know he ain't sh-t! I also love how much it bugs Joss that Eczema says "Spence." Same, Joss, same. I quite enjoy Joss being bitchy and annoyed with Enema.

I did laugh at how Joss was going on and on tearing into Spencer and all he cared about was that Trina liked him. Too cute. What wasn't cute was Elmo nibbling on his ear (or whatever she was doing) at the end - soooo weird and awkward. Joss knows something is off here too.

I really hope they let Mo keep the gray hair once he's Sonny again. Why doesn't Jax just tell Sonny the truth Poor Phyllis is having such a bad month. I really hope she comes to PC and Sonny takes good care of her.

Sam actually has a little energy with Dante and I like it.

Wes Ramsey looked like he was having fun today. That's all I'll say

These Jax and Sonny conversations are ridiculous.  Jax will tell Mike they fought over women before but won't tell him his name?  And Sonny doesn't care?   And tells him he doesn't trust him?  There is a difference between building suspense and drawing things out and no human would act like these two.  Jax should have just told him his name and let Nina explain the rest and leave.  And Sonny/Mike should have cared enough to find out.   I know it a soap, but I feel like Jax keeps having these circular conversations with several people instead of just telling Sonny and being done with.  I hope Jax brings Sonny into Jarley's wedding the way Sonny brought Miranda into Jax/Brenda's wedding all those years ago.

It should be near misses and interrupted conversations, but instead it's weird battle between Jax/Sonny over his identity.  I know Mike doesn't like or trust Jax, but it's clear Jax knows who he is, so it's just a bizarre reaction from both.  I have no problem with Jax finding out, but it should have been later and he basically should just drag Sonny to the wedding for maximum shock value.

Jax not immediately telling Sonny everything and dragging him back to PC is ridiculous and hard to believe. It's like the show refuses to do drama. We just have Jax keeping his mouth shut so this can be dragged out longer. We're really supposed to believe that Jax isn't rushing to drag Sonny back in time to stop the wedding? And to make his daughter happy? Okay.

Or trusting Nina to tell the truth? When the woman hasn't in several months?  I could understand if Jax had something to lose by bringing Sonny back.  If he was with Carly or something, but he literally has no stakes in this.  If anything, he would come off heroic.  It makes no sense.   And it's not as if this brings a different dynamic to their relationship.  They have been fighting with one another for 25 years.

GH is the best soap by far right now, but it’s still pretty mediocre. Payoffs aren’t worth the build-up for the most part. They squander all that “make ‘em wait” energy for these tension-free reveals. We’ve said that so many times in recent months (like the Michael/Willow/Chase confrontation). Hopefully they can stick the landing a bit better when PC as a whole learns Sonny is alive.

    • Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season.
    • thank you for uploading the rest of season 12!!! I hope i can get them soon the links down! Thank you again for posting the B&B classic episodes to revisit!!!!
    • Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that
    • Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

          Betsy Snyder, when she was at DAYS was part of the WGA winning writing team before she died, tragically far too young.  
    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
