Having an actress that can act playing Emma in that age group is a much needed counteract to the horrible material Joss always gets.

Trina could have legitimately served this purpose as well, but the show was never going to let that really happen. Trina’s on, but her material is written so insignificantly. 

[Antoyne]

This is exactly how the show handled Jagger’s murder as well. They tried one route, it didn’t pan out and the show just moved on and never referenced it again.

[Darn]

Emma's activism is such a refreshing change from the generic good/bad, studious/ballsy, etc. we've been served when it comes to younger characters. It's specific and doesn't go against what we know of her upbringing or her family.

It's sad that they really do not care.

I must say I enjoy LMAO at the "Joss is a WSB Agent" story.

The girl is so good that she accomplished all her training for an elite spy agency in about a month, with no previous experience or knowledge or training. Even better, she gets to do her first assignment in Port Charles! And Vaughan is her backup!

Keep the laughs coming, Frank!

Today would have been a good day for TJ to appear. He works at the hospital, and both Molly and Jordan had scenes at the hospital. He should have encountered one of them. Unfortunately, he appears to no longer exist.

It may he difficult for Taj Bellow to film GH scenes if he is still in South Africa.

It’s amazing they think the audience would just not remember Molly’s ex that was on the show for 13 years. 
 

Molly just saying all the stuff with Kristina is behind them now, shows the character is getting the same heavy handed writing as her father. Molly will probably forgive her for almost killing her dad now as well.

Always love Curtis vs Drew.

Honestly I’ve never commented on it and today I FF’d Joss as an WSB agent stuff because it’s so stupid. I sometimes feel like this show hates me

It’s amazing hearing Jason call Brennan’s world more dangerous than the mob world with him and Sonny. Didn’t Michael get shot in the head as a child? Didn’t Carly get shot giving birth to Morgan by Sonny? Didn’t Michael just blow up and catch on fire at Sonny’s apartment?

Ric wakes up and his first words are Elizabeth. Love it.

Lucy literally going door to door to coerce people into performing at the Nurses’ Ball cracked me up. Kai looked legitimately unsettled.

One irritating detail—having Sidwell “fully underwrite” the Ball, so that Lucy actually turned down donations from Drew and Curtis. That’s not how fundraisers work. Just call Sidwell a lead sponsor. 

[Contessa Donatella]

I was trying to remember. I think someone in the past was financially its sole underwriter.

[DRW50]

I'm glad they haven't killed the character off yet. Somehow after years away Ric returns to some of the only complex relationships on the show, all with women he has real chemistry with (and he also works well with Molly). 

[carolineg]

Even if I believed they were equally dangerous worlds, which is a stretch, why would Jason think Carly would care?  She's spent her entire life ignoring the danger of Sonny/Jason's world. Brennan's life being risky won't deter her at all. Jason is basically just wasting his breath here.

[Contessa Donatella]

I think he was pretty clear about his meaning which is basically the devil you know as compared to the one you do not know. He did not say what you just typed, that one world was more dangerous than the other.

Of course, the reason matters, because he wants to know how Elizabeth is, after the wreck.

I don't know if this will be of interest to others or not. When I edit the first thing I do is create a base file where I've gotten rid of everything I am not interested in. Yesterday's base file is just under 19 min. which for me is SO LONG!!!!

It’s truly a waste of time. And the message is coming from the wrong person entirely.

 

It really makes me so happy as a longtime Ric fan to see how well they’re treating him this run. Hearst still has chemistry with all of his old scene partners and already has it with his new ones as well.
