I’m so ready for this stupid mob storyline to fade into the background. I’m also ready for Michael to be gone. He needs to go back into a coma or something.

What is up with Maxie’s hair? It’s blonde one day, then next it’s brown, then it’s back to blonde and cut a whole different way. Also, she’s wearing less makeup.

I find it interesting the way people in soaps drink coffee and tea. They actually use the saucer. Who uses a saucer?

This whole Robin/Patrick storyline with the ex-girlfriend is stupid too. God, this whole show is stupid.

I wonder what the actor who plays Spinelli types on his keyboard when he’s busy “hacking” stuff. oh em gee!! are they breaking up maxie and spinelli??

All these Elizabeth hallucinations are driving me batty. Maybe that’s how Zander comes back? He’s one of her hallucinations.

Did James Franco lose a bet or something? Also, the artist “Franco”? Really? Wow, the writers really stretched their imaginations when they named this character, didn’t they?

After the ambush, Sonny pulls out 2 glasses and some liquor but only pours into one glass.

Actually, I’ve completely forgotten what happened last week. Because I am so focused on this week.

I found out that James Franco will *not* be Valentin Cassadine but instead is this mysterious CO77X person. My friend Lori and I think he’s someone who knows Jason from one of those times he was gone from Port Charles.

I am counting down the days to Claudia’s death!!!

I heard a rumor that Elizabeth will be pregnant with Nikolas’ baby. Oh good lord. Again with that storyline? How many times can Elizabeth get pregnant with someone else’s baby and try to pass it off as Lucky’s?

I’m sort of rooting for Johnny and Olivia to be together.

I’m intrigued by this “Valentine Cassadine” character that’s being brought in. Might this be the character James Franco is going to play?

I know that Claudia has some blurred lines when it comes to personal relationships but for her to try to seduce Dominic/Dante when she knows he’s Sonny’s kid? Eww. Beyond Ewww.

I’m cracking up at a drunk Johnny and a panicked Coleman trying to help Carly. “Hey man, it was just an order of fries. If she didn’t get them from me, she’d have gone somewhere else.” But why were Johnny and Coleman still in the room once Jax gets there?

For a smart girl, Kristina is really stupid. She’s only been on the pill for one day. She hasn’t read the literature? The pill’s not going to be effective. And I hope to God that she still makes Keifer wear a condom since he’s probably got an STD.

On a purely selfish physical note, Steve Burton equals ROWR!!!

GH 2nd Floor: Doctor’s Offices; Steve Hardy Memorial Library. Damn, how many libraries does this hospital have?

Lucky wants to marry Elizabeth AGAIN?  God, Lucky, take a freakin’ hint!!!

Patrick really needs to shut his trap.  It’s none of his business if Olivia tells Sonny about Dante/Dominic or not.

Oh snap.  They better not kill off Johnny Z.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

How do we think she’ll be written out?

Killed by Sonny, not only for her part in Michael’s accident, but also Kristina’s near death at the carnival? Killed by her dad, when her need for revenge about Johnny’s shooting goes awry?

OR

sent to the loony bin for some undetermined reason? She’d still be Sonny’s wife, and if they needed to bring her back, they could either bring back Sarah Brown or replace the character with some other actress.

Why does Alexis have a stick up her butt about the shooting games at the carnival?  Has she never been to a carnival before?  Those games are par for the course.  It’s not like Sonny made the carnival all of a sudden set up shooting galleries.

You know, for once, I’d like to see the PCPD show the cops and detectives doing their job instead of having people who have no business sleuthing go around half cocked.  Robin, I’m looking at you.  Do the writers believe that the cops haven’t followed up on the leads that Robin’s gotten?  I mean, isn’t it Standard Operating Procedure to get video surveillance footage from the security cameras at the hotel and to check receipts of who was around at the time so they can find witnesses?  It’s like Robin’s doing the work for the police.  I mean, I don’t have a problem with her doing her own investigating (well, I do but whatever) but only if she’s going down an avenue that the police aren’t.  But if she finds leads and stuff, she should share them with the cops, not go off on her own and confront people.  And how stupid is it that she finds the digitalis and knows what’s up but the rest of the hospital staff didn’t think twice about it?

Why doesn’t Edward have a driver?  And he forgot to put on his seatbelt.

Why are some of the rides still going?  You’d think they would’ve turned off all the rides after the accident.

How did Ethan walk into the hospital room to see Rebecca without seeing Nikolas?

Exactly what makes Michael a psychic?  Nothing so far has indicated it and then all of a sudden a Fortune Teller at a carnival tells him he is?  Are they saying that all the stuff he’s remembering that people said to him while he was in a coma is his “psychic ability?” 

Uh-oh.  Does Diane have competition for Max?

How stupid is it to have a conversation with your undercover son in his hospital room with the door open?

Funny.  Sam’s apartment has a peephole but she’s too short to reach it.

GH 8th Floor:  Psychiatric War, Burn Patient Ward, Neurosurgery.

What is the world coming to when I agree with SAM, of all people?  I can’t believe I’m agreeing with her on the whole Kristina issue.  Kristina needs to learn that there are consequences to her actions.  She sat there in Mexico and told Sam that she couldn’t come clean with the truth because her perfect life wasn’t supposed to be interrupted.  Yet, she interrupted it by fleeing to Mexico.  What kind of stupid logic is that?  Then, she’s all apologetic to Sonny (but not Claudia) but in Mexico she didn’t want to tell anyone?  This girl needs to be slapped upside the head.

Speaking of Kristina and stupid choices, what’s up with her “boyfriend” Kiefer?  Why is he so in a hurry to have her back, but he acts like he doesn’t really like her?

mmmm…Steve Burton….dreamy…

How much red wine do you suppose Olivia and Johnny drink?  Every time they’re together, they’re drinking red wine.  Does Olivia have stake in a winery or something?

Who the hell wears heels to a carnival? 

Why do Diane and Max have sex at the Metro Court?  Doesn’t Diane have a place of her own?

Dominic and Lulu are supposed to be the new Sonny and Carly?  Except Dominic is a good guy and not a Wise Guy.

Loved when Jason agreed to be Spinelli’s best man but not wear a pink tie and he and Spinelli had that little back-and-forth about the pink tie.  I do hope that nothing happens to jeopardize the Spinelli/Maxie relationship.

I watched last week’s episodes but forgot to post.

I think the part of the Government that has secret laboratories in which scientists do weird experiments need to kidnap Jason Morgan and figure him out because he is apparently super human.  Not only did he survive being trapped under a bunch of falling debris in a church AND a gunshot wound with no medicine WHATSOEVER, he did it in LESS THAN A WEEK.  And then had sex. 

Speaking of Jason sex, why the hell is Sam all weirded out about having sex with Jason?  I mean, it was just sex.  And it wasn’t even meaningful sex.  It was “oh, we’re in this weird situation that’s brought us together and we definitely have chemistry so let’s act on it” sex. 

10th Floor of GH:  Operating Rooms, Post Op/Recovery Rooms; Intensive Care Unit; Triage. 

What the hell is wrong with Kristina’s “boyfriend” Keifer?  He’s all “where’s Kristina?” but when he had the chance to talk to her, he dissed her?  Is it a teenager thing?

Ugh.  A Liz & Nik pairing?  I’ll say it again.  Ugh.  Lik, Niz?

God, Jerry is like a James Bond bad guy.  Just kill the damn girl already.  Don’t keep her alive, then tell her the plan.  What always happens?  She’ll escape then help James Bond kick your ass.  And when you’ve got James Bond trapped underneath rubble, don’t taunt him with threats.  Just kill him already.  Seriously.  Stupid bad guy.  And a gun malfunction?  Really, writers, really?

Is Spinelli really so stupid that he can’t see what Maxie’s doing?  Even when it’s pointed out in plain language?

God, for being a brain, Kristina is really thick.  And why the hell would Michael think that he could take on the bodyguard alone?  Kristina couldn’t help? 

How is Jason a hitman?  He can’t shoot the side of a freakin’ barn.

Ethan telling Lucky about Rebecca’s true motive?  Rebecca going to admit the truth to Nikolas?  I smell a con.

TPTB aged Nikolas’s son too.  Interesting.

The place where Kristina and Michael are working looks A LOT like the place they broke into when they were on the lam; the place that the Barney Fife cop nicked Sam and Jason.

[side note] I am intrigued by this new show “Shaq vs.”  It looks fun. [side note]

My dvr somehow didn’t record Thursday’s episode so I have no idea what happened on that day.  Also, this might be a lean entry since I fast forwarded through a lot of the stuff.

Kristina and Michael on the run to Mexico = boring and stupid.  Jerry was supposed to be dead.  Why are the 2 kids not more surprised to see him?  Also, for a smart girl, Kristina’s kind of dumb.  Her brain damaged brother has more sense to wonder why Jerry’s being so helpful.  But I guess it runs in the family since Sam is once again dumb enough to get caught by Jerry.

Johnny finally cutting ties with Claudia is a long time coming.  Good for him.

Robin playing at sleuthing is dumb.  Stop pretending you inherited any sort of spy training from your parents and uncle and stick with the medicine. 

The fun part about a dvr:  the ability to pause things and read stuff in the background.  According to the plasma screen in one of the Robin/Patrick scenes, the first floor holds the Main Entrance (duh), Administrative Offices, Board Room, Cafeteria, Library, Chapel, Records Room, and Book Storage (wouldn’t that be a library?).

Dante/Dominic is a cop.  Did not see that coming.
