Sunday Surgery: Hip BOOGIE

 

Rock it hard, rock it steady
Pick yourself up and get yourself ready
Wave your arms let me hear you yell
We're gonna rap about General Hospi-Tale

It started out in Port Charles town
Where Frank Smith's mob used to hang around
No one could prove that he was a crook
Till Luke stole his little black book

It had names and numbers all in code
So Luke and Laura had to hit the road
They had to find the left-handed boy
Watch their step, they had to be coy

SOAPnet Marathon: Are You Watching?

I am seriously dying here. OMG.. Diana Taylor, the cottage the OLD NURSES' uniforms!! AlexQuartermaine. 
WOW.. Heather was a pill even then. ALWAYS obsessed with a man. Jeff, Joe.. you name it. Poor Diana...that was  a huge murder mystery and I read NO spoilers LOL.

And the Ice Princess  Episode!! There was Ruby and Laura looking like a Bond GIRL!! Tristan Roger's accent was so much thicker.!!

Fake Waterfall (Which I probably thought was real).  The way Laura's voice made Luke's heart melt.

I had a Black and White TV in college so I saw most of the early 80's eppies on that. I didn't care!! I loved GH anyway I could get it.  It finally went to an hour in 1978 and we were in heaven. I so wanted Laura's dress:

Rick Sprinfield was on GH when his "Jessie's Girl" broke in the charts..he got HUGELY POPULAR.  It was great for GH because girlies tuned in just to see him. Claudia and Bryan. I loved Claudia. Burt Ramsey and we all know about THAT HUGE HUGE reveal!! eeeee!!


Also note the actors' voices/cadence and THEATER training. ALL of them had done some theater (at least the older ones) and you can so tell. Brilliant. Even their articulation was perfect. Swoon. 
No GIRLIE VOICE hoarseness and running out of breath!! 

 

Scotty so hated Laura..wow.. I forgot about that..and Lee's whole involvement. His drinking storyline was really innovative back then.
 

Yes, I'm Here...

You'd better not pout..you'd better not cry!! Hey,  I have today off so I can watch in real-time!!

SOAPnet will have their 50eppy marathon of GH beginning tonight... go to their FB Page for a sneak peek! The audio was so bad back then, but much fun!

Meanwhile, Katie took to the GH set for a special 20/20 special  to air on April 6th-- are we lucky or what? I still say thank you the old regime is gone.  I can't imagine we'd have anything but a bullet-bomb montage. LOL

I'm having a damn Cuervo Gold during today's show. :)

Anyway, Laura and Luke are now on the ship-- LOVED Connie's Silver SUIT! She looked so good. Yeah to Helena.  Sigh...;)  You could so tell by Helena's face that her sons are not dead. Did you see that gleam?
"You'd eat your own young with a chaser of Ouzo" LOL LUKE!! 
Helena calls Alexis by her given name, Natasha. Alexis was Natasha Cassadine and changed it to Alexis Davis.

Liz tells AJ about her affair with Nikolas.. he's  like "huh".  Well, whatever.

Felicia loves both Frisco and Mac. Surprise.


Could have lived without SpinELLIE..they were a buzz kill.  SO, Ellie doesn't want kids. Wow there's a plot device  if I ever saw one.

I think the DWTS guy is going to be a Cassadine, if not Valentine? Hmmmmm.  

Dante at the end,  he was so "Bond" Frogman!!! LOL


LINE OF THE CENTURY: 

"Fail me Natasha and I will slit your throat just like I did that cow who dropped you." - Helena


 

Thursday's GH

I had a total DISCO flashback! LOL

A REAL LIVE HELLZZZACOPTER!!

wow.. it was real...NOT CGI!! :thud:!! they were...

OUTSIDE.

like, with REAL AIR!! 

And this...now who remembers when these two HATED, HATED HATED each other! LOL.. Oh Bobbie SO Loathed Laura!!

RED RED RED!!

That's right!! LOVED it when Bobbie said she'd hope Lucas would find a nice man to marry!! :) Here's hoping Lucas comes back to GH. Poor kid has been in diabetic camp forever. (Ok, I know that's not true but let me dream)

Listening to the Supreme Court audio has fascinated me -- and made my stomach churn. I feel so strongly about this, makes my teeth ache! We are on the cusp of history and hopefully witnessing that people are people and love is love. 
 

Watch Fin and Jason On..

Who wants to be a Millionaire next Monday and Tuesday...check your local listings!! 

Lindsey Morgan Leaving GH

"Xtina" says goodbye:

It is with a heavy heart I have to announce that my time at Port Charles has come to an end. I’m not sure where Kristina is headed next but it was a beyond amazing opportunity to portray her…be part of the Davis Girls…have the Corinthos’ passion and temper run though my veins and to witness history being made on this momentous show! I learned so much and am so grateful for the friendships I’ve made and experiences I’ve had. GH will always have a special place in my heart and I cannot thank y’all enough for tuning in loyally to watch me live my dream. But more importantly, THANK Y’ALL for your endless love, letters, support, encouragement, kind words, even the little hello’s or a sweet smiley face…that love kept me going when I had difficulty navigating through Kristina’s and my own journey this past year. Whenever I felt lost, I never truly felt alone and for that, I am eternally gratefully. Thank you for your generosity. Thank you for your love. Thank you. Now keep watching GH!! The Nurses’ Ball is mere days away!!
All my love and see you on the next adventure,
xoxo
Lindsey

More Nurses Ball Photos

Go to TVSource for tons of photos!!

This "red carpet" idea is awesome and each of the actors are releasing their own photos!!

Nurses BALL photos!

Kelly JUST tweeted this and  yes,  I snagged it! 

 THIS IS from TVLine 
 "

 "Red Carpet" event at the Ball!

Oh, More Prospect Park ...

Entertainment Weekly ran an article today stating "Prospect Park loses actors to GH"...so. in the GOOD news, Roger, Kristen and Michael will be on GH. Bad news? THEY WILL BE DIFFERENT CHARACTERS.

so...we joked about "Man Todding and Comet Todding and  Mick MaclenBar. or something. 

EW has confirmed that Michael Easton and Kristen Alderson  — who reprised their roles as John McBain and Starr Manning on ABC’s General Hospital while Prospect Park ironed out details for OLTL’s online version — won’t return to their old soap once it debuts April 29 on The Online Network. Instead, ABC is reportedly figuring out a way to keep them on General Hospital, but in different roles, according to a TV Guide report.

As it stands, Prospect can’t even use the original websites for OLTL and AMC because ABC hasn’t released them. (Anyone who tries to access them is immediately sent to ABC’s daytime hub).

AH, GREED.
ALIVE AND WELL IN HOLLYWEIRD. 

Fifty Year Marathon on SOAPnet

and they have A LISTING of what to expect! 
 Friday, March 29 at 10:00 PM ET/PT and running through Monday, April 1 at 12:00 AM ET/PT (Sunday night/Monday morning), SOAPnet will be airing a 50-hour marathon of 51 classic episodes from the 50 years of ABC’s “General Hospital.”
The marathon is kicked off with the very first episode of the drama series, which aired on April 1, 1963. Episodes from every decade the show has been on the air will be featured.

IF YOU WANT allllllllllll the 51 shows and times look at this PDF...start on page 57. 

So, Do It Yourself Surgery...

If you dare.  I heard you when you said you wanted a place to comment! Here it is... 

I saw 15 min of GH last week this is what I saw:

Liz' giant beehive hair-do
Bobbie, Scotty, Laura and Luke in the same room  (Like I was on LSD ..flashbackin')
The Grad gowns
Nikolas hugging Lasha and Luke looking peeved. 

Have at it! Don't cut too deep and remember to take your meds. 

Just because...

We knew it but..

 
Tyler Christopher tweeted he was back to General Hospital. 

;) So, that Nikolas rumor on the Wubs Net looks true!

To Answer some Questions....

I am not turning this blog OFF... it will still be here. I will post now and again with photos or promos or things I find on the net you might like.  I can't post daily recaps because I'm not watching consistently. 
Alberta's little page is up there so I can't just delete this, I'd lose all our history! 

THANK YOU For the outpouring of wub-- I have heard from people that I haven't heard from in YEARS--on all my old emails lol. I had no idea that many of you still read this or visited the Wubs Net. 

If you subscribe to the blog, I believe you will get updates when I post. There should be a DSS feed down the side too.

I will probably post now and again until the Ball and then try to post during that week since I'm on vacation. I thought for sure I had the third week in April off but because Easter is so early, we got that week off. 
Thank GOODNESS I didn't buy plane tickets based on that info :) 

THANKS again for the well  wishes.  Even my mother called  !! 
 

Back This Week!

I also JUST found out I have the whole first week of April off..LOL I can't believe it. Maybe I'll give it a look-see!

An Awesome Video...

Happy 50th:

Sunday Surgery: Last Call

When I added the type to this I was cheering! 

My first web page is dated 6/6/99.  Those were the days I was trying to figure out this HTML jazz so I could post a little thing called "The Lazy Lobster Pub". The pub was just something fun and it also had a page called "The LukeSon Lounge". I was writing my WUBS for Gedstern and getting to know the whole GH community on the AOL boards and Soap Zone. When Laura handed the reigns over to me in 2002, little did I know how long I'd be doing the site, and then a blog and live tweeting the show. 

when I first made a gif I about fainted !!

But, as all things must end--it's time for me to go. I don't want to be all drama on you but there's a hell of a lot of memories to cover so get your scrubs on one last time, lather up, grab a scotch and have a seat.  We've got some ground to cover! 

50th

Watch Classic GH Episodes on SOAPnet!

March 29th at 10pm EST, SOAPnet will air 50 classic episodes of General Hospital--many of which are really Classic!! They will air one episode from each decade.

I am hoping for the Diana Taylor killing, the Tracy Q meds to Edward... the roof falling on Alan/Monica...and many more!!

Lexi Ainsworth To Be On ABC Pilot

Lexi will be on ABC's pilot show "Westside" starting Jennifer Beals.  She will portray one of her daughters, Nico.

CONGRATS TO OUR LEXI!!!! WOOT!! 

Apology for BlahBlogginess

Well.. it's been a long week for me and GH has been the last thing on my mind-- I have UPDATED THE SPOILERS  and thankfully, next week the "LULU" thing kicks off and Luke and Laura will be on more. 

I realize GH is gearing up for the ANNIVERSARY and the BALL--but boy, it's been hard to stick with lately. I will try to watch today's show when I can. HOW are you feeling with the show? 


AND YOU KNOW LULU will be getting a NUFace after this adventure:

POPE interrupts GH again..

Liz saw AJ Kissing Carly-- and note, she changed her scrubs color!!  Todd is not buying the AJ thing.

I read on Twitter that Olivia packed away Steve's ab roller! LOL 

AND THE POPE thing interrupts.

*sigh* 

Chris Robinson Back to GH

 

Ain't he supposed to be dead? TV Guide Magazine can exclusively report that Chris Robinson has been added to the list of General Hospital greats returning for the soap's 50th anniversary.
The veteran actor, who played heartthrob doc Rick Webber, rocked the '70s and '80s as part of the sizzling Rick-Monica-Alan-Lesley quadrangle. In 2002, the writers suddenly villainized Rick and the character was killed, seemingly by his stepdaughter Laura (Genie Francis), though the real killer turned out to be Scotty (Kin Shriner). But that hot mess won't stop Robinson from hitting the air April 1 in scenes with Rick's former love Monica (Leslie Charleson). Just how GH will pull off the trick is hush-hush.

Another ghost? Maybe Alan and Rick will fight over her lol 

What Happened on GH Today?

Uh...

stupid time change!!

NOT MUCH!! 

SPINELLI ate the pickle relish thing.

Connie's trying to 'Pass"

Nurse BETTY trying to get her CRUSH out on Paddy...and she passes her nursing test.


snooooozeah!!

GH Cake Celebration!

 Jackie Z tweeted this cake, which was at the Red Carpet celebration last night!

Sunday Surgery: Molecular Structure

Yes, Virginia there is a molecular structure for roses

And ILLEGAL LAB USAGE!! LOL... Oh Ellie, I'm glad you don't have REAL work to do-- because that pickle relish was just taking over. And Starr, all of a sudden some science major? Next thing you know she's going to be All NATALIE and be the forensic expert at the PCPD! LOL 

WE are going to put on our Bunsen Burners  and goggles this week. Maybe some cocktail weenies for Sunday brunch (relish extra). 

Luke and Laura Circa 2013

 What would Luke and Laura's 'Summer on the Run" look like now? 

Very different my friends. Very different. 

Instead of that dashing 'Indiana Jones' Look, Luke would have several hoodies at his disposal.

Walmart..one stop shop

Luke has to stop to buy a to GO phone at Walmart so they can't be tracked by his iPhone

Laura decides to text Leslie one last time saying "Sry Mom CU latr xxxoo" 

They Google "Beecher's Corners" 

Luke Likes the Mexican Flavor!

Instead of going out to get countless donuts, the use the microwave in their hotel room to heat up Lean Pockets.

No blanket across the room for "modesty" this is 2013.  Laura has already sexted Luke several times. 

Scotty goes to "America's Most Wanted" to get Luke's pic up.

Amy leaves 100 messages on Laura's Facebook wall about the town gossip.

Luke runs out to get an iPad so they can spend their time playing games, watching movies and looking at pictures of adorable cats. 

Laura doesn't wear a wig, she gives herself a pixie cut ala P!nk and Anne Hathaway. She can use temporary dye to change colors every other day. 

They Wiki Frank Smith and make changes such as "Likes to dress in women's underwear" on his bio page

NO Donuts for YOU!

They can't leave on time because the season finale of " The Walking Dead" is on so they postpone by a day.

Laura makes Luke stop at every other Starbucks for her venti carmel soy latte.

And when they get married?

Laura travels to Kleinfelds in NYC to appear on "Say Yes To the Dress" and doesn't end up with a giant fugly head piece.
