George Reinholt was straight?

The scenes with Dante, Jason and the kids were nice though a bit corny. I wasn’t expecting Jason to decide to move into the Quartermaine mansion. Could be an interesting dynamic shift if they play it up.

I was fine with those scenes, except for the long and stupid discussion about how they were going to clean up. Didn't come off as authentic to me.

 

Re: Sean Blakemore, I remember reading that he was cut at GH and didn't want to leave. The show failed him, as it fails so many actors. I  thought he had great chemistry with Laura Wright.

Instead of stuffing 5 more people in the Q mansion (which I honestly don't mind), why don't Dante and Jason just live in the penthouse together with the kids?  It could be like a wacky my two dads like sitcom.  I suppose this is all just temp anyhow considering I assume Lulu will make it back to PC sometime before the year ends lol.

His chemistry with Laura Wright was smoking hot.

Not gonna lie, I actually saw some chemistry with Gio and Trina today. 

I agree. I still think they should at least have a fling.

The complete deletion of memory re: either Pikeman/Brennan or the Wagger plot is baffling to me.

So just so I’m clear. A federal agent was murdered in Port Charles, and because Alexis didn’t do it they just said okay? Good enough for us? I hate that the writers treat us like we’re so stupid and have no memories.

Not gonna lie, I actually saw some chemistry with Gio and Trina today. Could we perhaps get a triangle?

It’s just so sloppy. Austin was shot dead and they barely even acknowledged it when it happened, it lead nowhere, and nobody seemed to notice or care on the show then or now. I don’t really care either. But they killed him in such a way that it should have mattered, and set up a mystery.

A couple of weeks of Sonny/Carly pretending they slept together and nobody also seems to notice that didn’t go anywhere either, or continue.

I forgot that one lol. Another story that will never be explained, and I was sure they would during the writing changeover in the spring.

I totally forgot the Sonny and Carly fake sleeping together aspect. And apparently so has everyone in town as well.

I don't think he was straight.  But apparently in the mid to late 90's he advertised himself as an "escort" that would take ladies to parties and what not so I guess you can take from that what you will

Stephen Martines appears to be an actual criminal finding rich widows and actually stealing their money.  I don't think he was ever charged with anything, but he was using religion as the backbone for the money he needed.  It's fairly easy to google it or I would go into more.  I don't want to get yelled at for going off topic on the thread though lol.

Yeah, I'm not sure George Reinholt being a down on his luck piece of male arm candy is the same thing as Stephen Martines, known scammer.

Yeah, from what I can tell GR was open about who he was and these women at least paid for a vaguely legal service.  I think GR even went on a talk show saying that was what he was doing to make cash.

SM was just scamming down on their luck or vulnerable people because he's a scumbag.

Gio and Trina should definitely do the damn thing. Honestly, whatever it takes to get GM's shirt off.

And, that commonality is the only thing I was going for. He was supposedly getting money & gifts from women he'd squire around town. 

However, just for general edification, I know that many people think he was gay but closeted & also self-loathing &  now back to what we're here to talk about.

And, I do get the difference. GR was taking advantage. Colton Whatever was stealing. 

Of course the writers today have Kristina referring to the baby as “our daughter” instead of her kid or by the wrong name when she needed to manipulate Molly to be on her side. 
 

I’m glad Stella talked some sense into TJ to be there for Molly. I’m probably more interested in their dynamic and what they’re going through than most people, but mainly because we so rarely get TJ’s POV. It’s typically all Kristina with a dash of Molly. 
 

I do think it’s funny the Davis girls think they will outsmart Ric. But honestly given who these writers are, it’s actually a toss up. But so far Ric has been written very competent and smart and already got Heather released. I’d love to see him get Ava off as well.

I still believe Lu Lu will end up living at the Q's

With the chemistry I saw from them today I’m very much inclined to agree. I think it helped there was no Joss in the room sucking up all the air and attention.
