I honestly don't know if Jason's current story is much better, but I guess it could be worse lol.

I really don't know if it could be worse. I think Jason's return has been a huge nothing-burger.

The Morgan part of that story idea is the only piece I would have kept

According to that script, Morgan wasn't killed in the explosion but he lost a finger on one hand, meaning the actor would wear a black leather glove with one finger tied down, all of the time. Apparently it was considered quite garish.

I'm not sure but I think maybe I am appalled. 

Poor Molly and TJ. KV killed it in the Molly and Ava confrontation and TB did great with TJ’s breakdowns over packing the nursery and baby clothes. I’m glad we got to see his family grieve and support him, the scenes with Stella comforting TJ and Jordan breaking down to Curtis were good.

Glad Trina is finally showing loyalty to Ava after running her mouth to Joss and Gio. Enjoyed finally having Portia and Trina scenes as well though yuck at Heather being otw tomorrow.

Sonny’s scenes with Kevin and Jason were nice and lmaoo at the placebo reveal being because of Donna having to get her stomach pumped from chugging the bottle of sugar pills. They are ready to wrap this whole story up.

I don’t need to see a Joss and Dex love scene ever again man. Enough.

Yep and no announcement or anything

I agree.  I also know myself and think if I saw the story Donna was laying out I would probably think the show could have done everything about it better lol.  

Also, not directed at you in particular, I don't enjoy Dex/Joss love scenes.  But at least they are trying to be sexy and young.  Brook Lynn wears a fluffy robe on her wedding night.  The show needs at least a few couples looking like they enjoy being intimate.

Vanessa could do the heavy lifting in the story because Brenda's just not as played out,

She will NEVER be played out.

Surely there will be another change to the writers rather than that. Because after these last few months I think Chris and Dan were better than anything we have gotten with Korte, and they were not good. Was Dan the better of the two?!?

I appreciate your comment about the Dex/Joss love scenes. None of it was too much, not in length and not in content. Sexy and young is definitely needed, and they give it. Joss haters dump on anything she does, and it's unfair, in my opinion.

The way this was shot makes the Brook Lynn/Chase love scenes look even worse. It's clear that someone is allowing actors to call the shots -- or at least some of them -- and that seldom leads to good television.

Hehe. Great minds. I just said Dan was the better over on the WRITER thread.

 

Well, I'm sure Errol will confirm if one more writing change is coming.

 

I hope so. Cuz this...??

Never to us!

But in general Brenda just has more options to play since we've seen Sonny do everything except be a good person lol.

Bonus, it would give Rena/Lois something else to do.

I am of the mind that even if I don't love the couple the importance of romance and sex on GH tends to be missing a lot.  Joss/Dex are young, attractive, have some chemistry, and are in love.  There is nothing wrong with showing it.  I didn't bother me at all.

Hehe. I'm js. 

 

So very true. She will always have options and even her being there would give Sonny more to play...things MB would probably not even play with anyone else. 

 

I would LIVE for a reunion between Vanessa and Rena right about now. I finally saw Rena's picture in the opening with her nails and felt so nostalgic. 

 

 

There are so many lanes to explore with Brenda! 

Oh so many...
