I'll say this much: if the choice is between a Sonny/Alexis redo or the continuation of Alexis and Gregory, then I choose the former, lol.

I have been wanting Sonny and Alexis to at least hook up again for years. They could play it like a 'secret' affair a la Something's Gotta Give, lol. It can be a transitional thing for both and also allow the characters to openly evaluate their past and relationship in an intelligent way.

They’ve been a slow burn couple, you have to have suffered through two years of “will this EVER happen?” to really get it.

So if I have this right if not for the pre-emption two weeks ago then today’s episode would have been last Friday’s episode. I can’t believe a pre-emption forced them to have an appropriate Friday cliffhanger.

Love Sprina’s reunion. The kids have chemistry I’m sorry and it’s only ramped up since they’ve been allowed to get physical.

Speaking of chemistry, no matter how many scenes they give us of Dante and Sam making out and being lovey dovey I’m never gonna be invested. Their conversations with Nina and Carly today were monumentally boring and so are they. Bring back Lulu! #MarciMillerasLulu

I like the idea of Robert coming and going as WSB agent. So much of the world’s traumas seem to happen to this small upstate NYC town anyways! He doesn’t need a job in Port Charles - a club, as DA or otherwise?

What is Mac’s job these days? Other than being ogled at at the pool? I wouldn’t mind Mac and Felicia taking over Kelly’s for Bobbie while they balance their adventuring and private investigating. Both are great talk to characters for the community. They have so many experiences from a broken marriage, blending families, loosing children, dealing with health crisis like AIDS. Unlike Ruby and Mike, whose traumas happened offscreen before they came to the canvas, we witnessed those traumas live at viewers. Not going to lie, I think this setup is just what Port Charles needs right now.

Mac I think still runs the Floating Rib (formerly Jake's). I thought he'd left the PCPD for good about a decade ago, but now I think he may be back again in some capacity? I'm not sure. Felicia is still an active private eye, which is why she's so active in story.

  I remember the explosion now I guess I just forgot where it was at.  That wasn't a good time on the show.   I totally forgot about Dev and my thoughts that character was going to lead somewhere and he just...didn't.  

ETA-at least I am not the only one on here that forgot.  I feel less stupid.

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
