Yep this is bad

Anna Devane is being ruined. 

So Sonny was pimping underage Girls at his strip club but John Cates is the bad guy here. [!@#$%^&*] that [!@#$%^&*]. Its time to retire the Sonny character and move the mob out of Port Charles.

7/24

Jason is really fine leaving his kids again for Carly because she decided to have a kid with Sonny when they were both middle aged

Ava is so silly thinking she could convince Nina to be on her side now. Great scenes though.

This show really had Kristina call Natalia the homophobe, THE REAL VICTIM?! This is the kind of stuff that turns me off of shows very quickly.

Wagger is not my red line on the show, lol. I don't care about Wagger no matter how nice his actor is on social media. He's been on the show four minutes. The whole show is just bad and the stories are nonsense.

Yes, Sonny did this.  Yes, Sonny is awful.  This did happen 30 years ago and Jagger is not the victim.  Karen was.  And she forgave Sonny for better or worse.  I don't need a 50 year old guy crying injustice about something that DID. NOT. HAPPEN. TO. HIM.  He cheated on Karen and was divorced from her years before she died.  A lot of things are all Sonny's fault.  This isn't one of them.

Jagger's issues are nonsense.  How would anyone side with him?  Sonny sucks, but like where were you JAGGER when your brother was dying?  Sonny paid for Stone's everything, no expense spared.  So, yeah, Sonny might milk that a bit, but Jagger could have shown up and spent time with his own brother or not cheated on Karen instead of complaining about it decades later.

Pretty sure she was fine with him when they visited right before Stone died, and again when the part was recast for Port Charles.

There is a layer of misogyny attached to the way Jagger is behaving about Karen. Like he needs to protect his little lady for her own good, no matter what she wants or even if she is alive anymore. Sure it was the writing, but Karen didn’t turn Sonny in. And this was back when he was low level mob.

Two/more things can be true at once- the writing for Anna was atrocious. Sonny is scum. However, Jagger has not been portrayed this entire run as heroic or as a stand up character. He is also still as stupid as he was back then. He openly flirted with Carly when he knew what he was holding over Jason. He was close to railroading Anna on sloppy email evidence. Defending him like he has remotely been a good guy or is simply doing his job is whack.

Yes!

They Had Karen (Then Jennifer Hammon) and Joe (Then Michael Dietz) run into Sonny , Jason &  Robin on the Pier on GH in 1998. Karen was not comfortable around him. Sonny kept calling her Carrie (Her stripper name). Joe asked him to quit. Then of all people, Robin told Karen its past the time she get over what Sonny did to her. Karen & Joe left.

Yes about Jagger.  Karen was a full grown woman who became a successful Dr.  Entirely without Jagger's help.  I don't even love to defend Sonny, but Karen had moved on with her life long before.  Jagger is acting like Karen was troubled by this for years.  She wasn't.  She was much stronger than that.  I can see Karen eyerolling this behavior from the grave.  Move on Jagger~

There is a scene not much after where Sonny and JH's Karen make peace.  That's literally not how Sonny/Karen ended things.  I am sure it's on youtube.

There are also scenes with Brenda at the Nurse's Ball in 1997 where they both discuss Sonny, Stone, Jagger et all.  Karen was more than fine and well adjusted.

    • I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.  
    • So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows. 
    • The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.
    • So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.
    • It does seem cheap and lazy for this show to have just one family. Passions was heavily criticized but it was nicely structured with a total of four families.      
    • I think it was definitely a surprising reveal in the storyline. I had a hard time appreciating Evan because I couldn't get behind his interest in Amanda. But that's because I never thought Sandra Ferguson made her a compelling character (although to give her credit she occasionally had decent emotional scenes with Mac or Rachel).
    • I'll even go further... I'll make her re-think BeLief and create a new patent. Brooke needs stuff to do. Anything other than beg or be in her panties. We need her to be creative. But sadly Bradley has a very low opinion of these characters. To him Brooke is nothing more than sex and scandal... or a pathetic doormat. Ridge is nothing more than a chauvinist pig that needs to pit women against each other to feel like A MAN and Steffy is nothing more than her father's guard-dog. I don't even want to open my mouth about Hope. She is such a fiasco in my opinion... I will not suffer if they kill her off. Bradley pooped on her character and now it's too late to fix it. Annika is great and I would hate to see her go, but slutty Hope was not her thing. The vibe was missing.     
    • I've seen Jason interact with Mitch and annoy him. That's as far as I recall. I didn't even have a slight idea that Evan had a vendetta against Rachel... That came as a surprise to me. I thought Evan was Iris's dog and that's it. Now he's definitely more interesting.
    • Thanks for these. I can't recall -- did Evan's vendetta have any position on Mitch, or was it all about Rachel? @Maxim have you seen any Frames intreracting with Mitch in any way?
    • Thank you for the tag! It's always a pleasure to see these little pearls of memories.
