You could have warned us/reminded me that immediately after was a scene with Courtney!

Haha. Wanted to ensure y'all were awake! 🤣

@carolineg you were not kidding about those bridge scenes. LOL!!!

 

Those last two episodes were drags. It was like someone tried to take PM's cornerstone of holding insightful conversations that reveal character, but they don't have the 'touch' that he has for it. Cuz those Jason/Carly scenes...WOOF.

 

I didn't mind the Chase/Dex scenes surprisingly. It was good to see Dex bond with somebody. And now that I think about that...it seems like the Dex hazing plot has vanished more or less. I also didn't mind the Cody/Tracy scenes, either.

 

LOVE the Trina scenes where she talks about her grief. So well done. And yet it's backburnered. 

 

And you know I LOVE the Laura/Dante scenes with Lulu. I was really hoping with PM in as HW that Lulu would finally wake up. And this scene...I honestly wonder if it will still happen. 

 

Also loved seeing BLQ as a Boss. AS showing off those edges she used to use so well as a Tracy Jr. when Sonny tried to use her to fix Natalia's issue. 

 

 

I just attended a Zoom event with Jeff Kober and Roger Howarth. Here is what they said:

Jeff and Roger are old buddies. Jeff and Roger had lunch in LA three weeks ago.

Jeff is on hiatus from GH. He is working on a book, teaching meditation, and is learning to play the harmonica.

Roger is living in the Berkshires in New York close to his Mom and Dad. He is far away from showbiz.

Roger started out in theater in the 1980s.

Jeff was a taxi driver in the 1980s and once had Gene Roddenberry in his taxi.

Todd Manning is the character that Roger liked best.

Jeff is going to be at GHFC Weekend next weekend.

The Zoom was attended by 71 people.

Jeff and Roger would work together in the future.

Roger doesn't know who killed Austin.

Roger will agree to come back to the show if asked but believes that it would be more likely to be asked to play for the Knicks or be Kamala's running mate than for GH to ask him back.

When he first joined the show, Roger was texted by the producer about GH as OLTL was ending.

Jeff's manager called and asked him to join GH.

Jeff broke a rib, broke his sternum, and broke a finger while on sets.

Jeff was on Star Trek twice and worked with Jeri Ryan.

Franco believes that Franco/Liz was a sweet story.

Jeff thinks that it is fantastic to be Laura's brother.

Roger is not in a position to turn down a role and has never had an offer he didn't take.

Jeff is glad that Cyrus stopped spouting religious stuff because it is challenging.

I put Heather and Cyrus spoilers in the spoiler forum.

I know GH is basically a crime show, but it's still hilarious how many of these people are in and out of jail on a regular basis. 😂🤣😂

Maurice Benard again chewed that scenery up at the end of today's show. I'm glad Jagger got the last word in and called him an SOB, but MB is basically laugh material at this point.

Wagger ain't &*#$.

 

Jason finally gets time with one of his sons, and Wagger wants to pull that crap on him? The only good I saw in this episode was that we FINALLY...just like Valentin being revealed as the head of Pikeman...have a clear direction for Wagger. We had plenty of good guys in Dante, Chase, and now Dex...so it was nice to see Wagger is going to let his hatred for Sonny get him to do things like blackmailing Jason and Carly to make Sonny pay. 

 

Not that Sonny ain't paying. Other than me forgetting why Sonny is hating on Michael at the moment AGAIN, I liked the circling of the wagons that the forthcoming Avery custody battle brought to this episode. Is it wrong that I'm Team Scotty/Ava though? Because I enjoyed the heck out of their scenes. We know how I feel about Maura West as a villainess, but Kin Shriner is such a perfect match for her in the scheme department. And the touch on Ava's nose as she revealed (finally) that someone tampered with Sonny's meds, guaranteeing Scotty can push him over the edge. Which Scotty won't mind doing given how he feels about Sonny per Karen. Really ironic with Wagger around, too. Bonus. 

 

I felt FH was playing Anna's guilt a little (pun unintended) on the nose in her scenes with Laura. Because I feel Anna as a character would show no guilt in front of Laura until Laura left the room. Meanwhile, GF did so good with those scenes, and the realization that NONE of her kids were in town. Foreshadowing? Or a reason for her to cling to Heather? But GF drew me completely in and I felt that. I also had forgotten that Charlotte is also Lulu's child. 

 

So I guess the next big event will be the custody battle. Which ties in the story of Sonny's meds. So...PM's stories ending/turning one by one...

Yeah, that was a little jarring, but okay because we don't see Charlotte much.

 

Now Michael and Sonny not getting along. I still trying to remember when they stopped again. Was it before BLQ/Chase's wedding?

It was. Sonny was still mad that Michael knew what Nina did and didn’t tell him.

Duh! Yeah, I totally forgot about that. lol.

 

So he's been mad for 3 months more or less. A record. Given how easily those two forgive and forget.

Tbh after Sonny killed AJ in cold blood, they honestly should never have a relationship again. I always thought it was dumb Michael forgave him.

Same. Especially since Michael claiming the Q name was decades in the making. And also could have driven story for still more.
