Chase is hot but like an overgrown child. I've never seen the purpose.

I've talked about this before but the twenty/thirtysomething set alternately behaves like 14 year olds or 60 year olds. It's bizarre. BLQ, etc. should be more fun than this.

The Sprina fan in me says Hell No But the part of me that wants Joss to suffer like no one’s ever suffered before says Hell Yes

Let Dex toss her away like trash. It would be exactly what she deserves

No one in the 20/30 set is any fun. Nobody goes to the club or bar and hang out, drink and party. Ani't noone being messy, scheming. It's just all babies all the time it's like all they can write. My fav it's stuck with one kid too many & they don't bother to show them unless it's some plot point [!@#$%^&*]. I wish she can go back to scheming and messiness 

It's like they decided everyone needed babies and couldn't do [!@#$%^&*] anymore but birth children. It's really insulting that they just see them as anchors to pop out babies.

Friday's episode was nice in so many small, sweet ways (much like baby "Ace" Cassadine in his Great Great Grand Uncle Victor's arms).  Laura & Victor's interaction was so well acted.  Diane coming in with that ending cliffhanger was perfect.  Can't wait for Monday's episode!

Laura, Anna & Felicia playing a Scooby-Doo-style haunting of the Deputy Mayor was funny.  Love how Felicia & Maxie have that humor part in common characteristics.  They should do more comedic stuff with Maxie if she's going to stay on the show.

Sasha is so much better now without Blando (but still keep Gladys!).  The actress is so conventionally pretty, if they pair her with Cody, they might be too beautiful a couple.  I guess they're setting up a quad romantic entanglement with Cody, Sasha, Chase and Brooklyn.

The Davis sisters all getting together was nice.  Dante & Sam make a nice blended family.  I'll never understand what her "domestic partnership" obsession is, but Molly being in a 10 year relationship with Dr. TJ and being a district attorney is so great!  The actress has grown up gorgeously...I can't wait till a hotshot new Lothario lawyer comes to Port Charles and rocks Molly & TJ's blissful soap world, in the court room and bedroom.

3-1

 

Daaaaarn. I was so hoping that Liz would have a devious killer in her corner. Cuz it looked like she was going to need it. But alas. lol. That said...KG was acting her butt off. And I felt her hurt, pain, AND wrath on her face when she cornered Scotty in that office. 

 

Speaking of darn (again)...I knew Willow was not going to die, but had them fingers crossed. I do like that they faked out that phone call. If this was RC (or Lucky Gold writing), I was expecting stall, stall, more stall...and then we would have a drag out on the reveal that Dr. O was a match. So happy that was not the case. I was hoping that Willow would be at Death's door though....along with the shipment story going down...so Michael could be in a position to lose EVERYTHING.

 

Speaking of the shipment storyline, that Sonny/Dex scene was PAINFUL. 

 

And that ending...yes! So...where do they go from here? Stick with the recast or is someone coming back to their role? Hmmm. And now that it's tied into Austin's storyline...WHO is the person he's working for...or used to. Cuz at this point, it's been rewritten so much IDK.

 

Uh oh...I liked the beginning of the week was a breather, but it does feel like momentum is dropping.

 

And...when was the last time we saw Kristina. Seeing Molly made me wonder.

Lynda's at it again.  In this week's summary; Who's Scoot?  Does anyone call her Samantha? & If Nikolas was "off" life support, wouldn't he be dead?

The whole plot is beyond stupid but Felicia slowly taking off the dead makeup throughout the episode was pretty funny.

Does anyone else feel the awkward pause while Kelly Monaco's castmates wait for her to finish her lines? What is going on with her?

Dante and Sam even discussing the possibility of another child is ridiculous with them in their mid-40s raising 4 kids. Kids we never see.

Molly's possible pregnancy is not a storyline and this show does not need any more goddamn babies. I find the whole idea that Molly and TJ, who have inexplicably been together for a decade despite both still being children, are in a domestic partnership. It's giving Loving V. Virginia. Very suspicious.

Speaking of interracial relationships, Spencer and Trina haven't had a scene together in 2 weeks and ya boy is thirsty.

I don't think I can handle another episode of Brook Lynn talking about her feelings for Chase. Or his feelings for her. They write them like they're 22, not the 40 year olds they are.

And Depression Central Sasha needs to be offscreen until she has something to do, I'm sick of hearing about her grief. No one cares.

He's 30! And Setton does not look or come off her age. But I agree they write their younger cast (which includes those two) like either very young teens or old people.

LOL at old Benjamin Franklin Gregory not even having a job at the university! I called it. Just an old salaryman going to the train station and sitting there all day.

Kelly Monaco has always had strange diction and been very mumbly to me.  I don't notice that much difference.  I just think some days KeMo knows her lines better than other days lol.

I think Sam and Dante are supposed to be younger than mid 40's.  I remember the show giving Sam a birthdate that was way too young for her when Alexis found out Sam was her daughter.  Your point is very valid though.  They don't need more kids at all.   I know Sam's broken baby maker was fixed, but is it fixed enough for her to have a pregnancy over 40?  It feels similar to Carly and Sonny having Donna to....do nothing and bring zero drama to the show.

Oh, okay. Rory Cabrera must've been not that important then. Actually, Sasha doesn't seem to be doing that bad either after what's his face? Brando. They're all moving along nicely besides Sasha telling Heather she and Brando had cherry pie.

    • Thanks. I'm glad we have some fan memories of these years as this is such a typically snide take on the genre. It's also poorly written and reminds me a great deal of the tedious "snark" recaps that became popular in the '90s. The end in particular. The 1979/80 stuff I have seen is much more polished than a number of soaps at the time. It was very easy to watch and not too bogged down in past story.  Margo is played by Ann Williams, who was on what seemed like every soap. I think she said Margo was her favorite role. 
    • And the rating 'wars' continue...hehe.
    • Well, it was fun while it lasted for Rebecca Herbst. Le sigh.    
    • I am wholeheartedly enjoying this show. I just haven't been able to post as much as I used to. But yes, this episode needs to be submitted for the EMMYs and there needs to be wins. I better NOT see Y&R, DAYS, or B&B winning in categories over BTG. I feel like the only show that is giving BTG an ounce of competition this season is GH. 
    • I never thought the day would come, but too much MM for me. 
    • I think it may be that the character was brought in for a specific purpose and then became popular with viewers, and the show didn't know how to respond.  The choice to pivot away from Simon/India may show that you are right and they didn't care for her...although pairing them up may be another sign they didn't care for her. I don't connect well with this period but it does make me happy seeing some of these characters before the great purge and some of the surprises - I'd forgotten the wonderful Maureen O'Sullivan popped up to be bumped off. So typical of soaps by this point, but it doesn't grate as much as later on when Y&R would bring on any random cast member from Small Wonder. I'm also amazed at this time at just how much money the show must have had. The costumes for the Founder's celebration in summer 1984, or whatever it was, looked gorgeous.
    • Which officially started to feel that way today with them hearing each other out as they confronted each other at the same time.    Same. He was even catching himself when he was about to go overboard or do those tics that people don't seem to like. He failed a bit at the end, but he carried. It makes me think about a month back when it was discussed that the actor was better in other things he's been in. And I questioned then if that meant that he was playing Martin more intentionally. I questioned that briefly again today because he was giving. 
    • I really like the actress who plays Margo. Don't know  her name. I'm so hesitant to google anyone because I don't want to know the length they were on the show. I've watched two episodes and I have to say that the show does not feel as dated as other shows. I tried to watch Ryan's Hope a few weeks back and some of the acting was a bit rough. EON is a lot more natural which amuses me considering it's a mystery/thriller show.
    • She’s INCREDIBLE. I’m so glad you enjoyed this my friend.
