Tyra Hosting Daytime Emmys

Tyra Banks is hosting The Daytime Emmys on POP TV. Check Soaps In Depths Site. 

EVERYONE is watching TV

EVEN at the Bar at the Metro!! LMAO...Ava has one in her sick hospital room (iPad). Yada yada.

Everyone sees Michael drunk and tipping over Avery.. Franco thinks it's hilarious. Ned's pissed and goes to find Alexis. Alexis is in her robe with Julian.

Ummmm, Sonny yells at Morgan about what how only and ass would set up Michael.  I'm sure Morgan will be dead to him once he finds out that he did this. Carly's mad she wasn't around for all of this. You know, not center stage.  She feels sorry for Michael. 

So, Nina and Franco moved from being isolated in Shadybrook to isolation in the Metro. Good Lord.

So much thought didn't go INTO ANY of these stories lately. WTF. Between them, Silas and Ava we could be watching seperate shows.  Cancer story is a bore. Ava wants Silas to go see that Avery is ok. Then come kill her. Silas says "OK". 

AHAHAHHA..wait. So, Sabrina sees Michael's allergy pills on the TABLE. She figures out someone could have tampered with them.
Now, these allergy pills have their own SAG card. Good GOD!! Couldn't you think of anything more imaginative??????? I swear this kind of stuff is written for 12 year olds. 

CPS is called. yep. But Sonny can't get Avery. So? who does? 

On this Date 19 Years Ago...

The first parody GH was written by me--in the old AOL community folders! Gedstern then asked me to write for her site and the rest, is Wubstory! I took over the site completely in 2003 and in the past 5 years, moved it exclusively to Blogger. This blog hit over 7 million page views this week. 

Why did I start writing Wubs ..?? I was the wubbly wub that Jax and Brender had on the show that made me go that way. They drove me a little nuts. LOL I used to say Jax had Brenda's heart and Sonny had her soul. The old fights in the folders were epic! Between the SnBers and the JnBer's (no smoosh names then) and the Spencer-Cassadine wars it was crazy!!

So thank you faithful readers! It's been a blast! I've met some of you personally, I've sent my lobster, Alberta to many more. General Hospital has driven me mad, sad and thrilled since 77. So happy that I can share my opinions with you here, on FB and Twitter. 

TODAY'S SHOW:

Val brings a tiny scalpel to kill Luke. LOL  He says "Kill Me' ....she tries to cry (Sorry I hate when non-criers try to cry and FAIL). Lante bust in and say STOP!!! This scene was SO BAD. I'm so sorry But it was. 

BABY AVERY IS DOWN! She's down! Michael tried to take her from Sonny and her stroller fell over.  Now she's up and seems ok. They are taking her to GH to get checked out.
Michael carries his "allergy pills' with him 24 7 now I guess. They are right out on the Q coffee table. LOL.  

Morgan and Kiki are idiots. 

Speaking of..I guess Liz is just ok with going back to Ric? Welp.

Greens and Nik are cute together. GEESH! Fastest hook up ever. She grabs his pants and ZOOM! I'm calling them "Grik" They just went nuts in bed --jeesh 

Carly and Jake are boring. Carly got Spin on the case. He'd FIND OUT in 2.2 seconds ! This story is SO stupid anyway. Like anyone in 2015 can GOOGLE ANYTHING!
Why does Carly have to even HIRE anyone? Get on the damn computer!!!! 

VERY weird, disconnected writing today.  And no one is putting much thought into these stories right now.

Swing and Miss

AH, Michael...the sweet smell of the Nasonex. Should have used this, not your pills. I am NOT liking the NuKiki. Gave her some time. And verdict? NOPE. 
By the way, Carlos or Sabrina could totally voice the BEE on GH today LOL 
Can Kiki and Morgan BE anymore Middle School? Giggling at the table watching Michael? Why is poor Avery there again? UGH
Kiki and Morgan make out to make Michael mad. Morgan thinks he and Kiki have "mad chemistry off the charts" Michael starts whoozzing around. The Access Hollywood guy starts filming on his phone. Michael goes to hit Morgan and misses. Lands on the floor. 

Sam dressed like it's July.  Pat and Sam arguing about Jake. 

Nikolas Cassadine and Hayden. LOL... you know they are going to end up shakin' it!  He says he knows Jake isn't Jake, just like she knows it. 

Julian and Jakeson.. SNOOZE Did Julian give Jake a job fixing cars in Johnny's garage? I must have missed it.

Val marches into GH demanding to see Uncle Luke. Liz is like "errrrr, huh?" She wants revenge. 
  
Tracy and Lulu have to tell him Pat's dead.  He's reliving the Bill Eckert days and stuff. HE says he started changing about a year ago. He started "hanging out" with Faison. LOL

Ric and Sonny...snooooooze. 


**MY TIP: Felix should have gotten fired from GH and then worked as the Bitter, yet fun Access Hollywood Guy. :) 

The Ring! The Pills!

Michael's Allergy PILLS are on the table at the Metro Court? WTF!! ahahahaha. Captain Obvious.  Kiki and Morgan taunt him so he orders a scotch. And let me guess, he'll take an allergy PILL next. 

Spencer as Phantom. Why don't they fire Chandler!?  Could he BE any more of a bad driver? 

Sam is obsessed with the RING--- like you know who in LOTR.  AND...Spencer is trying to give Emma Alan's ring (Jason's)  he stole from Nik's safe.  He throws it when Emma won't take it. And it's laying under the couch for Sam to find. Welp. 

Jake wants to ride the motorcycle with SAM....LMAO. OMG..
She's all tingly. So familiar. Oooooooooo. She gets to Pat's and stands next to Jason's ring which is under the couch. 

Nik is thinking that Helena paid off Hayden. Which makes sense. He goes to Hayden's rooom. 

Greens had on  skirt I wore in 1978. She wants Ric to go to bed with her because she's horny. LOL Ric says NO WAY. 
Nik shows up at the end, demanding to know who she is, 

Sunday Surgery: Wub Tub Time Machine GH52

I haven't read any other sites, blogs or twitter about this eppy...I didn't even read the comments in this blog. 
So here's what I think.... Sit right down.  TV Dinners from Swanson. 

WHO do you think you are? Mary Tyler Moore? 

Black and white was a perfect throwback.  Laura Wright fantastic choice to play Mom Spencer.  Luke was Archie Bunker. Even though that was in the 70s, was waiting for him to say "Meathead". Patricia looked so much like Tamara, I thought they hired her just for this show! Good acting. Young Luke was a bit stiff..but I won't complain much.  BTW, anyone else remember that Luke had straight hair when he first came on GH? He did, it wasn't curly. The devil's in the details folks! Especially on our soaps. heh. 

Hospital was awesome...looked just like the set!!  Jason Thompson acted exactly like Steve would have, even the head tilt! And Becky looked gorgeous....and SO "nurse" like!!  The old phone ring was SO real and triggered such memories for me. Geesh. Wow.  I was back eating Fluffanutter sandwiches while my mom was having a Pall Mall on the couch. 

The Bill Eckert piece actually made a good twist. Explained the keeping the house in Bill's name.  The little trick with the "last words" was also done nicely. So props for that! 

Um, yah, the house would have BLOWN up, correct??  Oh well. I guess I shall set that aside.   I did see on twitter Ron said it was contained to the basement. Um... well.. no, I don't think it could have been but even so, the firemen would have put it out, flooding the house. No soot. The floor would have given way. 
Again, I will set that aside. (details, details) 

The actual "Luke killed them both was interesting".  Not just Dad. Although he didn't "kill" his mama on purpose. Liked the red blood splatter when he hit Daddy dear. I of course would have loved a more gory scene but that's me. This story took forever. Give us some terror.

I WISH I WISH a couple of things...
Hinsight is 20/20... but, if they had decided to do this in the BEGINNING, at the start of this whole story, it would have been glorious. Because it was changed, there were a ton of missed opportunities. 
Patricia for one. Dee Wallace was brilliant. How about having HER come on a year or so ago and be the trigger for Luke's flip? Bobbie wouldn't know who she was, but Luke could have. She would have wanted to ease her conscience. Talk to her little brother. Yada yada. Instead we wasted eons on the mobular angle of all this.  We didn't need ANY of that.  The entire front-end of this story makes zero sense. Secondly? We  needed Genie.  Explains so much about him needing her as his "angel".  The rape--everything.  Could have not hired 10 of the other newbies you did, gotten Genie for the year as well and then have them going off to the sunset.  I did like Tracy in the story yes, but you could have had a Laura component too.  (The Nutrisystem commercial with Genie in it during this show was a bit ...mocking.) 

Which brings me to the dual Luke's. Much of that whole part also makes little sense. Especially tying Bill's bones in the basement. (Why BILL?  Because he owned the house? Hid the body? ) Why talk to yourself if you are another self protecting the said 'sane' self?  Why did you fall in with Helena? Is it the fact that the "other" Luke was so evil he went totally rogue on his other half to just be a bad-ass? *sigh. I could go on and on. Maybe the "other Luke" was a personification of his father? Why was he such a perv? Why would he want ELQ? Why hook up with Julian Jerome (how did Luke even know Julian when it was a Bill story?) Questions, Questions.  Details Details.  Do they matter? Damn straight they do. When I sit and watch a story line unfold I want it to make sense. Have a beginning, middle and end I can hold on to. Call me crazy but that's what I like in my programs. I don't want to have to go back and fill in holes, try to make sense out of the non-sensical and sit here scratching my head.  I want to look back and say: Damn! That was awesome--- now I get it.  Now that was a story! 

I tell you what, just like OLTL, Cartini can deliver a spectacular moment and short-goings because this was a great episode.  STAND-ALONE episode gets an A just for the production. But the mush in the beginning? Moves the story arc WAY WAY down the ladder to below average.   When I think of trying to find clues and have fun with the Fluke thing? And none of it mattered? Ugh...and the mask. WHY the mask? Why the whole Larry Ashton stuff? Waste of my time. Could have used them in a different way if you wanted them back on so much. 

This is also what could come if you concentrated on a few families more, and not jump around the whole damn place all year long. Stories could be quilted together and carefully stitched. Not thrown around like Francophrenia paints.
I know Tony was unexpectedly out for longer. I get that. But hello, tell the story differently but still have it make sense. You changed your entire direction and made the beginning moot. Just having TG "Skype' from Amsterdam was weird given this outcome. Don't tell me for a second any of this finale was planned. No way, no how. 

Sigh. Ok. Welp, that's over with. I will treasure this one episode, history holes and all because of the way it was filmed.  Truth is...(here it goes)...I was kinda sad after watching. Why? Because of what it could have been. One hour show after all that-- and yes, it was brilliant but --all the in between stuff? Why can't it at least be consistent? Or better woven or something?  I don't know. I guess my word is: Bittersweet.  Yep. Bittersweet for sure. 

I have to say I didn't miss GH at all this week. In fact, if the anniversary show hadn't had been on, I would have probably deleted all the recordings.  I'm not going to watch the next one, because I know it tempers the Ruby background. I can't deal with that. NOPE. 

We'll see if I'm in a mind to pick it up again next week. Right now? Not sure. 

I will read your comments later! Thanks for keeping the blog alive while I was in Florida! Had a great time, btw.  Left with 90 degrees and sun to SNOW today.
Boo. HOO.

Greetings!

Quick note to say Hellooo from The Happiest Place On Earth! I haven't had a TV on in 4 days and it's been great. I can't wait to see the 52nd Ann show- but it won't be for a bit longer. I see a lot of comments down there but I don't want to read yet because of spoilers.
I am on my ipad and can't seem to add photos - I will when I get back! I have some fun ones.
Thank you to Florida for giving us some much needed warmth and Vitamin D. Feels great.

Hope GH isn't driving everyone crazy! I saw Ian B is leaving and Wally Kurth signed with Days. I was really enjoying he and Olivia!

Have a good Friday--I'm off to Epcot tomorrow!
