WUBS update

Oh boy--so I hear that Valentin knows some stuff about Henrick. Not surprised. Don't care-- but not surprised. 




I'm still on a semi-break because of darling dimple dog Tillie. It's so great to not watch TV as much (and you know I watch TV!!) It's also the time of year my reports are starting to be due so I'm busy  right after work. 

Here are some of my thoughts: 

**Kevin is in the whole Mind-Mapping Ring, may even have the disco-ball. 
**Mike has Dementia
**Nelle will end up living at the Qs. Just a feeling. Monica will encourage it

Things I don't really care about: 

Julian/Kim/Alexis/Finn musical dance
Ava (sorry) and Griffin
Kiki and whatever
Started to not care about the mayor thing. I think they had to re-write a lot because of Genie leaving so the momentum is gone. 
Henrick and Anna--I don't care. Sad, but true. 
Whatever Lulu is doing
and...most of all:  I DON'T CARE WHO SAM CHOOSES.  UGH tired story



Tomorrow is Nathan's funeral, I'll try to watch that.  Mike's story could be intriguing but it should have been Bobbie or Monica.  Drew's past memories also interest me as does Nelle making Carly cranky. 

Other Stuff: 
I saw 32 Pills on HBO--good documentary if you like those. Finished Season 2 of the Travelers. Light fare for NetFlix but I enjoyed it a lot.  The only shows I'm watching on regular TV are The Middle, Blackish, The Alienist and VersaceSneaky Pete is back next month on Amazon. yeah!! 

Some News/Notes: 
Ron Hale is retired from acting so didn't want to come back to GH, so-that's why there's a recast 
Kim McCollough reported she is back home after the devastating fires in her area of CA. 
Kirsten Storms IG'd that she's NOT pregnant in real life. 
OMG we are getting a LOBSTER Emoji with the next update!! Alberta is thrilled. 

Ok, Enjoy the day!  Thank you for the Amazon orders over the holidays! I hope I can catch up on this week  enough to do Surgery on Sunday.

  1. Hi Karen enjoyed your thoughts on Things I really don't care about. Would you know why we are seeing less of Roger and Rebecca?

  3. Honestly, I hope that Jason meets/falls for someone else (new person, person on canvas already, IDGAF) and then Drew gets his memories back and drops Sam like a hot potato, and she ends up alone and miserable.

  4. Michelle, hope you feel better soon.

  5. Feel better Michelle! I love Anna but she should have been thrown out of Windermere for showing up at such an insensitive time. Thank heavens no Carly yesterday. Drew is so boring.

  6. TILLIE!!!! YAY! :) So adorable! :)

    "Kirsten Storms IG'd that she's NOT pregnant in real life."

    Yeah I read that on her IG.. Well I give props to the props department! (No pun intended) They did a really good job making her look pregnant, cus I thought she was in real life.

    Yesterday's GH.

    Wyndemere: Anna!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now is not the time!!! GO HOME!! GAH!!!

    Kelly's:

    Auggy and Lulu: Hmmmm more of her vulnerability scenes with Auggy.. Is there affair soon? :)

    Mike's home:

    Mike, Sonny, and Mike's girlfriend: Oh there she is!! YAY! She makes the scenes so much better and less boring. Although Mike did win the line of the day.

    Mike: I'm all sweaty from my walk and I'm going to take a shower, cus something stinks in here.

    ROFL! But then after the shower, he is still wearing the same clothes! ROFL! The sweat isn't going to go away from the clothes! ROFL!

    Paint and Wall media:

    Paint and Wall: Blah blah blah. Honeym zzzzzzzzzzzz. Two tickets to Thail zzzzzzzzzzz.

    Alexis, and Paint and Wall:

    Alexis: The consensus is that Ned didn't know that the ad was being run.

    YES! I am part of that consensus!!!

    Ned and Drew: NED!!!! There you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go find Alexis and tell her you didn't run that smear ad!!! Awww great scene with these two. :)

    Charlie's pub and restaurant: I don't get why Sam and even Molly goes to this place when they know Julian is the owner! It's so dumb!

    Harvey, Sam, and Alexis: Oh boy! Harvey is still working his angle!!!!

    1. Yeh people on her IG just wouldn't let up about if she was pregnant or not. It's ridiculous and so wrong that she has to even tell her followers if she is or isn't. It's her life.

    1. I'm think that the dance was around Valentines day I'm not sure if that's what the dance was for but if so it should be next week.

    1. I thought so! I was in and out of sleep but I heard him say she had a girl. Why would he truth all of it and then lie about that. Haha! Valentin is one interesting character.

    *** because he wants her to stop looking for Heinrich.

  11. I think it's sickening that they're giving Anna a child with Faison. Why go down this path?????

  12. Don't care about:
    Heinrich....Nothing is compelling about this story. It just is a stupid retcon. Also, Heinrich and Lulu...No

    Finn/Anna-They don't work IMHO, because there is no chemistry between the two.

    Dragging the Drew/Sam doomed relationship out(This reminds me a lot of Lucky and Liz in 2007-2008, slowly being destroyed at the speed of a snail).

    Michael CONSTANTLY saying "I don't love Nelle/Nelle you're dead to me/blah blah. Who cares about Nelle,shouldn't he be saying "Wait, I'm going to be a Dad?! Oh Sh**!"(like any guy in their 20s, would say?!)

    -Kevin RANDOMLY going nuts

    Good parts:
    -Aftermath of Nathan's death, including KS acting.

    -Oddly, I like the pairing of Alexis and Finn, and Kim and Julian.

    -Brenda deliberately sending a bad dress to Karly and Joss.

    -Town Pariahs, Ava and Nelle having a scene.

    ** One of the magazines (I'm not certain offhand, but it was within the last week or so) said he'll be sticking around for awhile. And with Drew and Sam today realizing he knew Drew as a kid, I'm curious to see where they're going to go with that.

    please please don't let people leave Kelly's for good and go to Charlie's place...

    ** I really can't see that happening. Kelly's has been there for about 40 years. (And several internal renovations) Kelly's has been a fixture in PC since it was originally opened by Rose and Paddy Kelly. As far as Charlie's Pub taking up so much screen time atm, it's a new set, so it'll be used heavily for a few months, at least. (Especially since a HUGE part of the Charles Street gentrification issue, and the mayoral race.) Remember a couple of years ago when Alexis was drinking constantly, there was that dive bar set that was if not showing up in every episode, it's name was mentioned every episode? (I honestly can't remember it's name at all, atm.) That's a PERFECT situation to comoare what's going on now, with.

    I miss the big dance that no one cared about with Joss and Oscar?

    ** Nope. Nothing since the "dress" scene.

  15. K, Oh, I thought that the dive bar was the same one that now is Charlie's Pub, was it a different set?

    I was thrown by the Anna/Valentin stuff. First he told her that he "didn't really know for sure, but you confirmed it?" Then he tells her that the baby was a girl--so he totally contradicted himself in, like, 5 minutes, and she didn't realize it? Also, Anna always has been a liberated woman and an exciting international spy--if she was PG with Faison's spawn, she would have had an abortion, a procedure that I'm sure was/is much more common in Europe, where folks are less moralizing and more practical. Then, when Val said she had a girl, and they cut to Heiny, I figured that Heiny is trans. (But I guess it makes more sense that he is trying to throw her off the scent, since they showed him calling Heiny in the end.)

  16. Yesterday's episode:

    The hospital:

    Kiwi, Liz, and Ava: Why is Ava being so nice? ROFL! She is usually so nice and then turns on you hahaha. She didn't tun on Liz! I can't forget the scene where Ava was nice to the waitress at Kelly's and then turned on her! ROFL! Man too bad Griffy wasn't there to witness it! Hahahahaha!

    Michael and Janelle:

    Jenelle: I thought that naming the baby after Morgan would just ease tensions between me and your mom.

    coughcoughLIARcoughcough Oh there is Kiwi looking all Jelly!!!!

    Michael and Kiwi: Oh a hug!!! First step to getting back together? :)

    Janelle and Ava: Oh she needs Ava's help!!!! I knew she would ask her for help eventually!!! Oh just the work hours. Rats..

    BobTodd's art room:

    Friz: Oh! Love the painting!!!! :)

    Charlie's pub and restaurant:

    Friz: BobTodd wins the line of the day!

    BobTodd: Yeah I am pretty sure Drew would prefer I would walk in front of incoming traffic.

    ROFL!

    Sam and Alexis: Oh look they are talking about Mr. Sneeze er I mean Henrick.

    Alexis table and Friz's table: Drew and BobTodd having eye sex! :)

    Wyndemere:

    Anna and V.C.: Oh UGH! Stupid stupid stupid!!! What a trainwreck!!!!

    Jason's home:

    Carly and Jason: Hey isn't that Drew's old digs?

    Auggy's office: Hmmm Anna had a girl, I was thinking was Auggy a female and now he is a man? :) Oh wait V.C. called! Why would V.C. lie to Anna that she had a girl? UGH! Stupid storyline!

    K, Oh, I thought that the dive bar was the same one that now is Charlie's Pub, was it a different set?

    ** Yeah, it's a completely new one. Charlie's is definitely a little bit more upscale than the other one. One of the most obvious differences between the two places is just when one comes in through the front door. That door on the other one was exactly street level. When people come into Charlie's it's pretty obvious that they have ato walk down a few steps at least when coming through the door. Kind of like there was on "Cheers", but it's only just a couple of steps, where Cheer's was a bit of a stairway. Charlie's also has a smaller seating space, just a few tables and stools at the bar, giving it a much more "intimate" feel, IMO. It also has a smaller bar area. There's also that whenever some one comes inside, we've never seen the wall to the person's right in Charlies, at all. And we saw in that direction several times in the other place. Off the top of my head at least, those are the most noticeable differences between the two places.


    I was thrown by the Anna/Valentin stuff. First he told her that he "didn't really know for sure, but you confirmed it?" Then he tells her that the baby was a girl--so he totally contradicted himself in, like, 5 minutes, and she didn't realize it?

(But I guess it makes more sense that he is trying to throw her off the scent, since they showed him calling Heiny in the end.)

    ** Don't feel bad about being thrown by that stuff. The whole lot of it between the two of them, was a complete mess. The biggest problem being that it was yet another retcon/rewrite of Anna's past. It really makes no sense at all. This would have to have been several years before she had Robin, and there is no way Heinrik is THAT much older than Robin. And I totally agree that she would have had an abortion then. There is no way in hell the WSB would allow one of their cadets in training to become impregnated by an infamous DVX agent, and carry the child to give birth. Sure, the WSB has had issues of corruption over the years, I still can't see them letting her keep the child, back then. As far as Valentin telling her that the child she gave birth to was a girl, when we know that wasn't the case, that's easy to explain, and isn't that Heinrik is trans. (That could make things very interesting if that's what they were setting things up for, although) It was just Spycraft 101 on Valentin's part. I.E. ALWAYS keep some information back that only you know, as you never know when you might need to use the info to make sure you have the upper hand in the situation, is all.

    ** Read the last paragraph of the posting right above this one here. I was trying to explain that to Joan, also. Hopefully that can clear it up for you a bit.

  19. No problem Joan! :) Hopefully things make at least a bit more sense now! (Well as much sense as can be made from this stuff)

Sunday Surgery: Rude Awakening

  Such a frustrating week for me!! GH can be so good, then so uneven and just plain plodding along that it baffles the mind. I felt like Thu...
