Becky seems more like a victim of events and circumstances outside her control and that's why Liz never really broke through as a lead.

Same.

A-level is still mostly whoever is tied to Sonny/Jason/Carly.

Same, but true. Regardless of BTS power.

Liz, with her life experiences, her job, and kids was in line with what Bobbie became. A character that was in the grounded stories and was relatable through her mistakes and had rooting value and real audience support for her triumphs. She just never got fully elevated like Jackie did.

Becky has worked her ass off in many terrible stories over the years. I think part of the issue with Liz was what happened during the Liason era, both onscreen and off. Then JJ came back and the show seemed hellbent in making his character miserable all the time. Guza wrote for Lucky like he did Laura- depressing, angry, maligned, and increasingly isolated.

Just seeing them both smile at times during this run has been refreshing.

Liz is even Head Nurse now so that tracks. And I completely agree. Part of the reason I like her is her growth from bad girl to artist to nurse. And from her mistakes and wanting to change, she was highly watchable and highly rootable for me growing up. Something people love to see and support an underdog. 

 

Truly an actress who can turn some horrible stories (and pairings) into gold. 

 

And yes, I do enjoy seeing Lucky and Liz all grown up with smiles. Especially Lucky. Say what I want about his appearances, but he hasn't looked like he's going to cry since a little bit after his character got away from Sidwell. Finally!!!

That is hysterical. It was the 10 year old Puerto Rico remote footage (both Luke and the boat) that finished me off.

You can't say GH didn't get their money's worth off that location shoot.  I have seen Sonny jump off that tram at least a million times. 

And, not directed at anyone in particular, but if you re-watch that location shoot the promo for that hotel was so intense.  Sonny literally walks past that hotel to try to find Brenda? for at least 5 mins more than once.  That doesn't sound like a lot of time, but it is a lot of time to watch MB just walking on hotel grounds.

It's also kind of hilariously dick-ish Sonny just watches Luke get shot and fall off the boat and decides to just leave him in the ocean.

I like how he came back to town and was like 'idk is he alive? could be, don't count him out Laura!'

But I haven't seen the Puerto Rico caper/November '94 sweeps eps in their entirety since they first aired. I wish they were online.

I remember Brenda screeching to go get Luke and Sonny's all "naw, he's good.  He'll figure it out.  Let's have sex on the beach instead".   Some things never change.

 

A lot of it's in this playlist.  I don't think the entirety of the shows has ever been posted.  It's Sonny/Brenda edits but it has most of the PR caper or at least the most important parts. I included the glamour shot of the hotel lol.   This person just cut a lot of Lily/Miguel/Juan stuff which is a choice I agree with.

2-4

 

Drew...AND MS. WU??? Now we know Drew has gone to the dark side. lol.

 

Loved it. Lucy with the eyebrow cock...making me think of That GH opening that guy on Bluesky parodied above lmao well-timed. Carly getting that look that she has not had on her face in a good minute when she found Drew's tie on the couch...just so CARLY. Jordan actually being Undercover Jordan which she hasn't been since she first came on the scene. 

 

And that's just moments. 

 

Storywise, I found a lot that I liked. Cuz WOOOOOOW Drew really done hopped that fence just to have sex with Willow. The shady comments that come to mind. lol. And now he's setting his targets up in a row. Curtis and using Ms. Wu to do it. And now OFFICIALLY aiming for Jason AND Sonny. And we all know how well that ends. Murder mystery, anyone???

 

Great Lucky/Liz scene. But seeing the 'letterhead' of the episode, that did not surprise me at all. I enjoyed them talking and Lucky talking about his adventure at Sidwell's. And any callback to Liz's long-ago declaration that she's no one's angel...which when I really and officially became her fan...hit home. No plot...just the two of them bonding organically through actions that did take place on screen. And the dance....awwwww. Anything that makes Liz happy, makes me happy.

 

'We have a connection.' Isaiah, if you don't stop!!!    Lord, I've enjoyed all the Jordan/Isaiah interactions. And when he said that, and Jordan stumbled in her words. And he gave that look....mmmm WOOOOFFF!!!! I almost hate that Sidwell is involved. And...she has a bit of chemistry with both. And add in Lucy being Lucy. That actually could be fun. Though I still want Sidwell to go.

 

Of course Jason is out of town all of a sudden *cough*blockfilming*cough* More time for the writers to spin this stupid 'Jason is Sasha's babydaddy' storyline off into something.

 

That said...CARLY...YOU...BETTA...READ!!!! And CARLY is the one who gave Drew that tie, too??

I could not believe that Drew actually hopped a fence. I mean...is it that good? On one hand, the Willow/Drew story just feels nasty. On the other hand, this is turning into some good messy drama. And more reason I feel Drew is going to wind up obsessed. I also liked that it seems like the writers are going to keep the rivalry between Drew and Cody going. And cuz we know I love seeing her...MSSSSSSSSSSSSS WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

As for NuBrennan...well I've always said Charles Mesure could get it. I've also said grown up Chris McKenna could get it when he was on Y&R and all theme primetime movies so looks don't bother me at all and I already knew Chris could fill out a suit. So mmmmm. That said...I liked that Chris (now that I've seen the whole scenes) has found the essence of the Brennan character from go which I liked. I'm undecided how I feel about him with Carly though. I also wonder...would it be funny if this turned into a Stabi from DAYS situation? Where the recast (which was Tyler Christopher to Brandon Barash) happened and real interest takes hold in the audience...only for the recast to be killed off before the writers realize it? And intriguing they brought back that Cyrus thread. I thought Brennan got the footage to help Joss and thus Carly, but there's something else in play...? 

 

Carly being Carly will always get a rise out of me. Light Drew up, Carly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And then Drew throwing Jason in Carly's face. Lord...his inferiority complex.

 

But...that was good!!!

Does the Q compound need a moat?

I just went down a YT Mary Mae rabbit hole & was it ever a lovely blast from the past!!

Factoid of interest: Maura West & Cynthia Watros went to the same conservatory at overlapping periods of time. 1. conservatory not college 2. time period 3. There is no 3.
