Sunday Surgery: Vocal Abuse

YES, I am the star !

I'm not nearly as excited as I was last week about the show but it's in the 'average' range, so I'm not going to completely complain! 
Things were  on a roll Monday then just fell off for me. The "aftermath" of such a frenzied pace is bound to be a bit slower.


No idea what to eat today. Strudel? Not that weird Toaster Strudel but the real stuff. Yum.  I wish Lesil was here to say the word for me ;)

The dress left to find Lucky

This week in a nutshell: Laura kept the secret and left town, Hayden woke up but seems not to know anything, Silas' murder mystery deepens, Jake still is Jake, and Sonny actually shot someone.

There, that's it! Seriously. That's it. Here it is in photos:

Where am I? Who am I and where do I get egg whites? 

Ok, so Hayden knows who she is but supposedly thinks Jake is her hubby. LOL. You, Sam and I know she's faking. Nikolas crept into her room to (maybe) kill her off on Friday but me thinks since Rebecca just got a contract, that ain't happening. 

DADDY!! DADDY!!!!!! wake up!! HELLOOO OOOOOO  wahhhhhh

Yes, trying to do Kiki's yelling justice but it's not possible. Whoa. It was painful. Even IF you thought she should be wailing, it just wasn't believable, imo. Not to me at least. This is where major vocal abuse occurred.  Kiki called  911 and Franco got arrested. He did have the knife, was found at the scene and there was a fingerprint. Even Nate could figure those clues out! Not that it's Franco's doing.  Seemed like it boiled down to Morgan, Denise, Ric and Donna Mills. No, Donna Mills wasn't even named but you know she's suspect. Heather hated Silas too and loved big knives.  It's going to take all month according to the promos so...stay tuned! And if you happened to miss a second of these scenes, the 900 flashbacks per episode should catch you up! 

Oh yeah, Sam found out Silas died.  Patrick too. Can't you tell? All those tissues around. Such sorrow. 

Our Dimpled Don met with "The Five Families" in some restaurant. Serge, the poor Russian guy said the wrong thing and Sonny turned around and shot him. I suppose it was about showing that Sonny is still King of the Mob. Another interesting note is that the Wu lady was there, probably related to Brad in some way. We'll probably hear about it in a month or so. BTW, I at least was surprised that Sonny finally just killed someone without talking about it for ages. BOOM, gone. 

Nina wore my fave shirt all week! I love this....plus it's so glistening white even after pulling that knife out of Silas' back. Donna Mills tried to get her to sign some papers, just like Ric did. No dice. 

 Oh, and Nina gloriously grabbed a bald guy's head :)

Carly asked Morgan if he killed Silas.  Franco told Dr. O that Denise is Ava. Ava threatened Franco... yada yada.  Dr. O and Franco tho? GOLD. 

I'm still not happy with the amount of stories/characters GH has. This leads to such giant chunks of time out of pacing that things just get all muddied. Lucas and Brad are a prime example. You can have all the days you want of Brad looking nervous, talking to Felix and hemming and hawing, but move it along! Lucas sat in Carly's just doing some moping and nothing-- not one thing moved. YAWN.  Julian and Alexis have a few lines, go into the bedroom and that's about it for them. You know I can list a host of characters who are now languishing 
in no-man's land at the moment. Tracy? Paul? Anyone? Bueller? 

I would also like to point out that Brad and Felix had to move so Sam/Pat could have the 2x2 spot to sit in. Remember the old lounge? Where people actually had chairs and stuff? Yeah, Me too. 

SCENE OF THE WEEK: For my money it was Carly laying into  Moronigan. You go, Mom!

RUNNER  UP: Good Ol' Dead Silas pours DenAva a nice martini. Great execution.

PROP of the WEEK:  The Blinds (ominous music)...meaning someone might get KILLED! Such powers those blinds! 

FACE OF THE WEEK:  SO, So many to CHOOSE from!! 

 This blog is dedicated to Serge...and his ponytail. We hardly knew ye. 

I would like to note that last night on Twitter people were talking a lot about the GH Fan Club weekend events.  One big thing that came out and SID tweeted was that Bryan Craig (Morgan) was told by Frank (EP) that the Mob will become "front and center" again.  At Maurice's event, it was told again. So, buckle up. Apparently we're going to get the mobular crap all over the place. 
Oh, and the 3 actors kept it real classy about outgoing writer HW Ron.  You can watch it on You Tube for yourself.  I was a big critic of the writing these past 6-7 months but even I know that it's not just ONE person's game when it comes to what's on our screens.  People could have kept it classier especially since they had good material for a long time under this regime and praised them up and down at times. I guess TG made it all cool to dump on Ron when he's out the door. SMDH. I don't like this kind of bashing at all, especially at a public event.  There's "truth telling" and then there's just plain being ungrateful and grandstanding. 
I hope the new ladies write a lot of mob-centric stuff since that's what "the actors" are proposing  will save the ratings.
Somehow I doubt it.
