General Hospital : Wednesday

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

I can’t tell you how happy I am that Sam has accepted Jake in Jason’s life. She is actually making an effort for Jason to be able to spend time with his son. OMG, did you see Jason’s face when he held him? Ahhh, the look of a loving father. Sam thinks Liz is being selfish. She’s sick and tired of how she acts all aloof when she sees Jason when the latter was the one who save her life and her child. But of course she also wants Jason to tell her the truth. I think Sam has accepted the fact that he has a baby with another woman, well to the extent. Now if only he tells her the truth, then she can help him be with his son. Together, they can help raise Jake. She is more woman than anyone ever thought she was.

One Life To Live : Wednesday

John is an arrogant human being, isn’t he. He’s not just rough around the edges, he’s just plain obnoxious son of a gun. How dare he talk to the Mayor like that? I know the Llanview Mayor is an ass but John works for him. Where does he get the nerve to be so disrespectful? What, he thinks he owns the LPD that his job is alright. He must feel he’s solved a lot of cases to feel safe. What cases? Maybe his father’s murder but that took years. He might’ve saved Todd being executed but that was in the nick of time as well. He hasn’t solved Spencer’s murder. Now the arsonist case. Seriously, how long? Then he has the nerve to be acting superior towards his Superior. Geez. Natalie has really rubbed off on him, bad I might add.

After talking to her therapist, Marty went to visit David. I swear that guy is hilarious. He is vain and obnoxiously humurous. Gotta love him. Marty figured it out though. His admission of guilt has nothing to do with actually commiting murder. It’s about money. She nailed it right in the head. I wish she’d shut up though if she knows what’s good for her. She thinks she killed Spencer, and then what? Her therapist may have the confidentiality covered but someone just stole her recording tape.

All My Children : Wednesday

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

Greenlee and Josh, could it be? Hey it’s possible. As they’ve pointed out themselves while being stucked in the elevator, they have a lot of things in common starting with how Greg Madden pretty much ruined their lives. Their childlike attitude in the end was adorable though. I might actually start liking Josh with how he will eventually be friends with Greenlee. Of course I’m sure Kendall will have something to say about it. Ooohh, Erica. LOL. Well at least Greenlee is not a trailer-trash bimboo like Babe. That’s pretty much where snotty Erica’s umbrage stems from towards Babe.

Speaking of Babe, she and her mother bought the pub using the money she gout out of selling all the jewelries that Adam has given her. Damn, those must be really expensive pieces. Since Babe quit at Fusion, she’ll be her Mother’a partner to the pub they’re going to call, “The Comeback”. I didn’t know they left. Hehehe.

Ava was dumped by 2 men in one day. OUCH. First it was Jon whom we all know was only being nice to her because he thinks he can replicate what he had with Lily. Ava is a wild girl and I think Jon was attracted to that no matter how hard he tried not to. So I don’t think Ava is out of his system yet. Meanwhile, Ava is miffed that Sean hasn’t replied her text messages to him. Lily thinks maybe because he’s trying to spend more time with his Mom, but Ava knows better. Lo and Behold, she caught him kissing Colby.

While JR and Amanda kissed as well. Whaat? I know. It was at the end of the show. After all the threats Amanda gave JR when he told him his indecent proposal. JR suggested she sleeps with him to have all the power and get revenge on Adam. Amanda was pissed off but like I said, at the end of the show, she and JR were kissing. Hmmmm. Hey, they kinda look HOT :) .

All My Children : Tuesday

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Annie cornered Greenlee in the bathroom. Di, who can’t mind her own business was concerened of what was going on in there. Kendall said whoever gets out of there alive wins. She was more concerned about clowns for Spike’s birthday and the e-mail she recieved from Hannah. But of course Di is such a gossip monger that she keeps wondering what Annie and Greenlee were tlaking about.

In the bathroom, Annie made it clear to Greenlee that she will never, ever, let Ryan go. He belongs to her and Emma and that’s how it’s going to be. Whatever. See, I knew she would use her daughter as an ace card. She knows Ryan will never leave her because he would never leave his daughter. C’mon. Anyway, in the end Annie and Greenlee came out of there swinging to let everyone know their plans on bringing Fusion to the top again.

It’s funny how everyone else are working to think of new concepts for Fusion. Greenlee has always been the one coming up with new concepts. When she left, Babe did a lot I guess, bringing in ZArf. But has Kendall every thought of a new campaign? While Annie and Greenlee shared their idea, Kendall was just like , “oh this is good, blah blah”. She thought of bringing in a good Chemist. Both she and Greenlee thought of Boyd. Then they reminisced on how they pretty much ruined the guy. Mostly Kendall coz she slept with him. And then, trailer-queen Babe came in to ruin everything. “I quit” she declared.

Good. Eversince Greenlee came back, she has been such a snotty little bitch. Thank goodness Greenlee put a stipulation in the contract when she gave her the shares of stocks. See, Greenlee is a smart girl.

But, she’s about to sue Zach. This is going to alienate her more from the PV residents. Zach acts like he’s a God and people would support him and Kendall. I hope the Judge will see Greenlee’s side. Zach needs to be punsihed. He doesn’t even feel any remorse. “I’m protecting my wife”. Puhleaazze. I hope he choked on that piece of celery he was eating yesterday.

Happy 60th Birthday Anthony Geary

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

anthony-geary1.jpgToday is Anthony Geary’s 60th birthday. We all know him as Luke. The half of the legendary Luke and Laura pair. A very well respected, admired and much loved actor by peers, co-workers and fans alike. 60th birthday, WOW. He doesn’t look like it. Still a wise-cracking intense with so many layers character Luke that we’ve all come to love. Happy Birthday Tony!

Jason makes plans to tell Sam the truth about the baby over a romantic dinner. Meanwhile, Ric finds a recording that incriminates Jason in the murder of Alcazar and orchestrates it so the cops will find it. Ric then gives Lucky the juicy job of arresting Jason for murder. Will Elizabeth stand by and let the father of her baby be hauled off to jail?

Maybe this will make Liz tell the truth. She couldn’t possibly let Jason go to jail now, could she? Or maybe this is a way for her to keep the secret forever. Without Jason around, she can have her little perfect family. Well, not with Sam around. Watch, she’s going be Jason’s hero :) .

Weekly Previews : One Life To Live : May 28- June 1

Monday, May 28th, 2007

Everyone close to Jessica freaks out when they learn that Antonio is the match for the liver transplant. Most fear that he won’t agree to the donation because he’s so angry and hurt. No one can find Antonio to even ask him, as he’s left town. Nash promises to track him down. He’s determined to not lose Jessica after they’ve just gotten together. Nash finds him, but Jessica’s condition gets worse. Will he be able to save her life before it’s too late?!

Will Antonio agree to give Jess his liver? I hope so. He’s not that cruel.

What happens when your best friend accuses your husband of killing her unborn children? Just as Kendall and Greenlee’s friendship is starting to get back on track, Greenlee does the unforgivable! She tries to break up Kendall’s marriage by bringing charges against Zach for destroying her only chance to have children. And, JR figures out a way to get to Adam where it hurts the most — by changing Little Adam’s last name from Chandler to… Martin!

Only Greenle. Leave it to Greelee. These are just a few phrases so apporpriate for this little vixen with a heart of gold. Hah, of course Zach is going to get away with it coz he thinks he is God. The guy is not evne sorry he did that to Greens. He was all arrogant and so proud of himself.

Little A as a Martin? C’mon, that’s a little over the top. Well I guess it’s his kid so he can name him any name he wants.

General Hospital : Brenda Barrett Recast

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

vanessa_marcil1.jpgSoaps In Depth compiled a list of possible actresses that could fill the empty chair that Vanessa Marcil left when she decided to leave her Brenda Barrett alter-ego and be Sam for that NBC primetime show called Las Vegas. I do want the Brenda character back. She is such an icon, pretty much, in Port Charles. The damn mob-infested town needs a feisty little thing called Brenda, hah.

*Vanessa’s picture from funmunch.com

rebecca_budig1.jpgFirst on the list is Rebecca Budig. I wholeheartedly agree. I loved her as Michelle in Guiding Light, and I absolutely loved her as Greenlee in All My Children. She is my one of my top picks to fill Vanessa’s shoes.

*Picture from Starpulse.com

gina_tognoni.jpgGina Tognoni is my top pick also. I would’ve loved to see her spar with Laura Wright again since the latter used to play Cassie on Guding Light while Gina plays Dinah. But, sad to say, Gina is staying in Guiding Light :(.

Other actresses that made it on the SID list are :

Julianne Morris who sued to play Amy Wilson in Young and the Restless, and eventually place Greta in Days of Our Lives.

I don’t know about her. I don’t think she has the caliber of acting that Rebecca possess. Sorry.

Lauren Woodland who used to play a spoiled brat Brittany Hodges in Young and The Restless. I’m surprised she made the list. I was never impressed with her acting.

Charissa Chamorro who sued to play the psycho Tory Grainger in guiding Light and the con artist Sophia Pelligrino in OLTL. I might be able to live with her as a replacement but I don’t think she will be able to handle Lura Wright’s Carly. The latter will eat her alive.

Brenda is a strong-willed character who is always fighting with Carly because of Sonny. Now that she is married to Jax who by the way is also one of Brenda’s ex-love, the new actress should be able to stand on her own to stick it to Carly. In my opinion, Rebecca Budig is the best choice.

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

If you’re wondering why I haven’t written any post regarding GH, well I’m kinda bored with the show. LOL. Sorry.

I mean, how long will they drag this Mr. Criag/Jerry storyline. The guy is going to live, I think. Jason’s hands are tied, because of Carly’s loyalty to her husband(perish the thought), for now anyway.

We’re all waiting for Lorenzo to die with the help of Skye. I’m looking forward to the day she holds her daughter once again.

Alexis being such a bitch and so condescending to Carly is getting really annoying. Laright, you’re a lawyer, we know. Too bad you couldn’t defend yourself in the custody issue regarding Molly. BTW, where is she? I mean after that 2 tumultous episodes visiting her at Ric’s, nothing has gone on. It’s like the situation went under the rug. TPTB should explore that pain but they’re too busy pushing Craig and Alexis down our throat that who cares if she’s not tlaking about her daughter anymore.

Nikolas and Emily’s story makes me want to puke. There’s nothing there. Ooohhh, Emily is inadvertently involved in an espionage that Craig set up. Oh Lordy.

Sam’s storyline moving quite steady but I need more. Adding Liz and her baby into the mix would be great. It’s amazing how very supportive she is ti Jason right now even though she already knows the truth. From the previews, Jason wants to tell her and I think they will work it out. The only reason Liz will fight it is because she knows Sam will live with jason’s betrayal while Lucky wouldn’t. As long as no one else knows, her fantasy of having 2 men on her beck and call can continue. Well, not for long. Sam is not a host for Everyday Heroes for nothing. That girl can survive anything. She’s nto about to let saint Liz to ruin her future with hunky Jason :)

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Some of you are probably tired of me talking about how I detest Kendall but love Greenlee, almost to a fault, hah. The latter is wicked but it’s hard not to like her :) . Anyhooo, with this in mind, I’m going to avoid ranting about Kendall and her equally power-driven hypocritical husband Zach. Wow, the nerve of him informing Greens that he just bought shared for his wife, therefore Fusion is 50/50. Whatever. I’m glad Greenlee finally told Kendall how much she is at fault for everything that is wrong in her life. Yes. Greens must be sulking but dang, she could’ve had a baby with the man of her life. She wouldn’t be divorced right now. Zach, admitting it was him who caused the black out in PV with not a trace of remorse in his face is unforgivable. I abhor him and his wife with a passion. I said I wasn’t going to talk about it so I’m going to stop now :) .

Adam almost catching Sean is classic. Colby really is his princess. Sean is a good guy but he IS getting it on with Ava so Adam is right about him being shady. I mean according to the tycoon, being raised by Barbara alone should be a clear sign of where he is heading off. That’s kinda harsh. Well I hope Sean does something about it after he heard Adam’s words. I mean he was hiding under the bed afterall :) .

Ryan and his minions celebrated his divorce to Greenlee. Awwwww. He found the ring he gave Greenlee before he headed out to move his new family to his condo. Hmm, what would that do?

One Life To Live : Monday

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007

Antonio knows. Jessica finally confessed. And she made sure he knows that Nash is the one she wants to spend her life with. He on the otherhand wants to know all the details. How did it happen? When did it start? Was it after the kiss? How far have they gone? Of course there is no one particular moment to explain it all. It has been building up for months. Even before they got married. At first he said he won’t accept it. That he’s still there fighting for him but told her later that he’s wishing he’s never met her. OUCH.

He said he would’nt accept it but we know that would change soon after he talks to Chrisitan. he knew it all along and he didn’t say anything. So I guess we’ll see if he would let Jess live by giving her his liver. Ayayay. Christian have other things in mind right now. Vange hasn’t woken up yet. Damn contract negotiations ooops, I meant coma…LOL.

Meanwhile, Nash is telling Clint what Jess is telling Antonio. Jess’s father is not sure about how Nash feels though. I think he knows. He’s just petrified right now. The last thing Jess needs is going through a divorce while fighting for her life. In his heart, he knows that Nash will do anything for Jess. I wonder if Tess will come out to help Jess fight her cancer. That would be interesting. I don’t know how that would work but hey, you never know in the land of soaps.

Britney and Cole went to visit Henry’s parents. Starr didn’t feel so bad after hearing that. Excpet Langston thought it was cruel and insensitive. It looks like Starr’s BFF will be getting her own bf soon. He’s acting weird though but you know kids. They just want to be cool in fornt of their friend’s. He’ll probalby end up in the play eventually :) .

Greenlee asked Ryan to fight for him this time. She sent him the divorce paper as a chance for him to find her and fight for her. Too bad Greenlee forgot that as much as Ryan is honorable is such a catch, he is still a Man. Therefore he can’t read minds. Women’s anyway. LOL. I could’ve told her that her dreams of Ryan coming to find her to beg her not to go through with is zilck unless she she speels it out for him. I could see she was feeling beaten afterwards coz Ryan may still love her and would still want to make it up to her, he couldn’t. There’s Emma now. It’s not just about Annie anymore. To save what little dignity she had they’re about to sign the papers. The day after their anniversary I guess. Poor Greens. That’s OK. Someone will come along. Maybe Leo :)

Jack and Erica on the otherhand are playing the blame game. Once again. This time regarding Ava and Sean. Jack realized Erica knew something was going on between those horny teenagers but she didn’t say anything. Erica’s defense, he knew it too. He saw signs and he must have know something like it would happen especially with Ava’s personality. Jack conceded and agreed she was right. The camera caught it all.

Colby and Adam share a tender moment. I don’t think he would really take her into consideration though. I mean he loves her and all but he’s not going to stop trying to ruin JR’s life and won’t forgive Krystal anytime soon.

‘Twas a boring episode, if you ask me. I’m waiting for the time Greens and Ryan kiss even though I know nothing will come out of it. Is it just me or is annie starting to look like a Stepford wife. All pristine and not a strand of hair flapping around. Whatever. She will never have Greenlee’s passion and heart and soul. She’s a good Mom, I give her that but I’m still for Greenlee. Of course you already know that :)

Jason is gunning for Mr. Craig (AKA Jerry) but Carly begs him not to kill him. He agrees at first, but then Craig holds Sam and Amelia at gunpoint and Jason has had enough…Meanwhile, Skye will do anything to have her daughter back in her arms - including conspiring to have her boyfriend killed by his enemies. As soon as Alcazar gives Lila Rae back to her, Skye opens the door for Jason to kill him!

Bad Carly, Bad Bad move. I guess this is Ted King’s exit story. I really hope Skye gets Lila Rae back. Damn a lot of killing his week huh? Jason’s schedule is really full.

Antonio has it out with Nash over his affair with Jessica. Then, he learns that his own brother knew about Nash and Jessica. He’s furious with Cristian and disowns him. He can’t take all of the hurt, and decides to take Jamie and leave Llanview. Just as he’s leaving town, the doctors tell Jessica that the only match for her liver donor is…Antonio! After she cheated on him, how can Jess now risk Antonio’s life? And Marty freaks out and begins to think that she may have killed Spencer!

Talk about irony and the twists od all twists. Hah. I don’t think Anotnio is that cruel to let a woman die. Would he really want Bree to grow up without her mother?

I don’t think Mary needs to worry about Spencer. May just be flashbacks on seeing who did it.
