Sunday Surgery: Blindsided

I'm going to keep asking you until you say what I want to hear!! 

Oh WUBSY had a good GH week!! I even wanted to get home to watch the trial! We had 2 Scott Sickles days! A new fun pairing!  Reveals galore! 

Don't faint...I'm sure I'll be back to crabbing soon! 

Today? Just a nice Americano from Starbucks. Only because I got a gift card :) That ish is expensive!! 



note: Giant thanks to @SoapJenn for all the photos! 

A LOT happened this week.. and I was here for it. It's all leading up to a good November I think--and I'm hoping the ratings reflect it. Love or hate GH, the actors are just top notch. I heard it got a 2 year 'renewal' (if that's how those things work?) and if so, yeah! Two more years of my snark, frustration and wub pouring out over this soap! LOL. 



 BLINDSIDE OF THE WEEK #1:  Violet ... the oldest 2 yr old  going!! She was precious I thought and I loved Finn with her!! I also really liked he and Rebecca's scenes together. I like ME with both she and Finola. Oh the choices!! I'm so glad Violet wasn't a secret any longer.  Epiphany in these scenes was also gold. She had no idea what was happening--(or DID she??) Hayden's excuse for renting a house in Beecher's Corners and having Violet there was basically that Finn didn't show up in Rome and she got pissy. Then she found out about Anna and-- well, the rest is history. Finn's none too happy and no one can blame him. 



BLINDSIDE OF THE WEEK #2:  Poor Scotty, all ready to win after he slayed Kim on the stand and KEVvvvvvvin...well, Kevin thinks this new Franco-Drew hybrid should be able to make his own decisions! DAMN!! Putting a monkey wrench right in the works!! 
The trial was good I thought--well, it was a "hearing" so there was much more we could swallow in terms of shenanigans. 
Franco didn't want Cam bullied on the stand and I was hoping there would be a glimmer of him shining through. Asking Scotty to get him a BLT perhaps? But nope, he stayed in mopey stoic character the entire time. EVEN when Kim said she tried to drug and get PG by "Real Drew"he sat there like a statue. Monica said he was more Drew than Franco. Look, the lady has lost most of her family. If she can keep "Drew" around a bit more, well...she's going to. Even Jason couldn't lie his way out of going to Franco and asking him for Drew memories! Is all hope lost for Liz?
I somehow don't think so....



WUBJOY OF THE WEEK: Well if THIS Wasn't the single best thing I've seen in a long time, I don't know what is!! Wow. I just loved all of it! Trina asking for a job--Ava giving her one. Inspired. Plus the actresses played so well off each other. Get that Gallery going again. There's always some intrigue around art. I was just grinning like a loon during these scenes! 



CHRISTMAS PHOTO OF THE WEEK: Awww.. not even all the Donna stuff bothered me. I actually liked her coming home. The baby was adorable and who doesn't want to see Avery? 



AIRTIME OF THE WEEK: WOW..Scotty was on ALL OVER the place! He saw Laura, he ate at Kelly's and had a strategy meeting with Liz. Barked at Julian and did his thing in the courtroom! GO KIN!! 



HAIR DO OF THE WEEK: SO, Felicia was on, talking to Robert about Anna.  Her hair was very Helena like--or very Ava like--depending on where you want to go with this. Is it so someone can take her instead of Ava if they get out of jail?? Or..???? Hmmmm... maybe KW just wanted a new look- not sure. 



MILITARY IMPERSONATION OF THE WEEK: Um, Franco you can't be all wearing Drew Cain's uniform. You just can't. Even if you do slick that hair back. 



SUDDEN ACCENT ON-SET OF THE WEEK: What in the HELL is going on? First DrewCo sounds all light-southern and now we have Tad being all Upper-Class Genteel with that accent he has going! LOL.. It's bordering Fog Horn Leg Horn for me !



"LITTLE" DUDE OF THE WEEK: Welp..here's Danny! He looks ready to skateboard and cause trouble all over PC! 




SCENES OF THE WEEK: ALL the  Ava scenes. I loved her with Laura-- Julian, Kevin and Trina. The Kevin scene in her apartment was just so perfect. He tells her about PTSD, trauma and how he's been coping. Good dialog, true to life with a little spark o' Ava thrown in! Maura was even the best when she went in and asked Nina for her scotch back! 



WUBSHELL WEEK: 

It seems Nina is bamboozling Valentin into thinking she forgave him
Spencer sent Nina a bottle of Champers...Valentin was mad
Trina is working for Ava now at the Gallery! 
Dev found the portrait of Hells in the garbage, sold it to Ava for $100 
Kevin talked Ava into moving forward with her life
Sam decides to go for a bench trail instead of letting a jury decide
Laura, Curtis and Kevin keep trying to find the painting and hidden clues
Dustin, teacher at PC High, gives advice to Joss to play with her friends more
Josslyn however, wants to write in her journal about angst
Cameron tears up on the stand about Franco's bravery
Monica decides neurology trumps biology
Kevin says DrewCo is rational and can make his own choices
Kim is called out on the stand for almost raping Drew Cain Beta
Lucy wants to sell Peter the condo but Peter is too afraid of his guilty ways to bite the bullet
Baby Donna is home safe and sound. 
Ava's stalker is still stalking. When will Nikolas show his face? (you know it has to be him!) 


This is a bit short and sweet because I don't want to kill the mood. I just really looked forward to watching the show all week and that's always a plus. There are still areas that make me nuts but it felt light and moved pretty well. Helps to see Laura, Kevin..Scotty, Felicia, Robert--Monica, Bobbie yada yada.  Plus some teen stuff that wasn't boring and the Ava Trina pairing. 
I know a lot of people are not into the Franco story but I think it's gotten us some good drama. 
And.. that's that!! 

See you this week!! It's raining and gloomy here--I hope Tillie doesn't want to walk too far.
