Sunday Surgery: Twinkle, Twinkle

 

Three days of Christmas on GH. Only three days and yet I managed to write quite a bit because you know me, have to get those thoughts on paper!! 

Let's all have some mulled wine and hopefully not singing by anyone around us. Not even on our soap. 

THIS RANT IS DEDICATED TO THE WILLOW/DREW FARCE SO BRACE YOURSELVES: 

In them olden days, the holidays were usually marked by the whole cast coming together in some way and marking the occasion. The reading at the hospital, dinners with family and crew members kids sitting around with stars in their eyes. This year we did have a soapy family dinner with the Qs but it quickly went from YEAH! the video is out to OH MY GAWD, Drew is just gross. My saving grace in the aftermath was Lucas going to Nina's and telling Willow what a jerk she's being. PLUS saying "We Jeromes" to Ava. :clapping: 

Listening to Jason and Michael on the terrace at Carly's coupled with Nina and Drew pushing Willow, there's a giant custody fight coming. Great. ANOTHER CUSTODY FIGHT. Is Michael going to become Edward and Alan screetching: THAT IS MY SON over and over? We didn't even finish the Avery one yet. I just don't have the patience. Can't stupid Drew spend time with his daughter and get busy for Washington? Congressmen have like NO time. He sure has some to stalk Willow at the Charity event then show up at Nina's apartment. Also noted: Willow called her relationship and finding Drew "like a dream".  M'am! Three episodes ago you wanted him to stay away from you and wanted your family together. Now he's your everything? Again: EW --or as Diane said "ICKY". 

Nina, we feel you girl!! 

HEY DREW: NO ONE LIKES YOU!! It makes it 10x worse to know that CM went on in an interview about Drillow's "Love" and becoming a 'super couple'. Um, sir, have you been microdosing??? Because.......NO. None of that is true. I can't tell at this point if the writers are punking us and will finally switch to the "Willow has PTSD from her cult days".  She all of a sudden went from "this is a terrible mistake" to "So glad we found each other" :shudder:. I actually rewound that part because--WHAAAAAAAT. Girl.. you need a break in Beecher's Corners. 

IN OTHER NEWS:  Emma comes back to Port Charles in the strangest way yet ...a total character change in looks and deeds. Now, I know BS is going to nursing school so the recast isn't a problem for me. The newbie looks so much like Sasha it knocks my socks off so yeah, she could be in that Scorpio mix. BUT-- (and a BIG BUT) what the hell with that wallet caper and then dropping out of school and not telling Robin? AND She got expelled from Berkley! WOWZA. My our Little Emma has changed. Her scenes with Anna were ok and maybe Anna having a pain in the neck around might be fun?? Maybe?? Joss and she are already frenemies and then Emma says she "saw Cam all the time" in California and introduced him to Gretchen. That was a cheeky little exchange (and not expected). So.. verdict is??? We need a baddie type for the 20 something set, this girl has the IG  influencer look down but..it's EMMA lol. Yikes. 

NOT PREGNANT:  Well, we've had enough anvils with ol' Hoodie wearing Brook to know Gio is her first born. I'm certain Lois knew of a family that wanted a baby and he was given to them without Brook Lyn's knowledge. Now, she can't get PG and I can hear the reason: "We can't find any problems with lab testing, just keep trying."  THEN Brook reveals to someone she feels so guilty about her first baby, she has a mental block for getting PG now. (or something to that effect). By the way, THERE ARE CUTE FLANNEL JAMMIES OUT THERE. No need to put that girl in a damn hoodie AND a PJ top while in bed. Thanks. 

LULU HOOPLAH: All you need to know is she is off to Prague to 'rescue' her daughter while leaving her other kid to have Christmas alone because... 'she's a Spencer'.  Also going on that journey is French Lady Camille because of course the WSB has to be involved. :eyeroll: Scuttle butt on social media is: HOW could Lulu just leave the country in just a few hours? Maybe her passport was still valid but last I knew, a visa was needed along with some money. She have a stash somewhere? Rocco gave her his saved up birthday money? Who knows. 

SURPRISE!!  YEP, I was surprised when Valentin popped up Friday. I really wasn't sure JPS was coming back (even for a cameo/short time). And there he is!!  You know he's taking Charlotte back but!! Lulu put a tracking device in her purse. The plot thickens!! 

THE JOSS is extremely calm, don't you think? Laughing it up, playing card with Brennan the working at Bobbie's. I would have rather her try to get in touch with Dex's family? He died like 2.3 seconds ago. I guess maybe she's numb. It's playing very strangely however, and Brennan looking for footage on the WSB satellite might lead to something? Just.. weird. 

THE BOSS:  What is this? Angina? Heartburn? An attack? All I can think of is: Sonny's going to the hosptial for an angioplasty and the needle-bandit strikes again. St. Jaysus comes in the room just in time and Cyrus is arrested before killing Sonny. (Because Sonny isn't going anywhere). We didn't see Sonny again after this on Friday so I bet it will be a 'come and go' thing until he gets to GH. 

TRI AND KAI are the up and coming. He's the mopey jock that doesn't like the fame. She's the "nerdy" art girl trying to expand his world. I was happy they had a fan follow him into the Metro dining room because other than that, the kid is always alone!! 

WYNDEMERE is apparently back in Cassadine hands. How do we know this? Martin meets with Laura and Alexis to tell them the "trust" has given everything to Ace and Alexis is the trustee. Laura is horrified! Tained Cassadine MONEY!!? NO WAY. They want to give it to chairty. Marty explains that's not going to happen. Why this is transpiring now is anyone's guess. Nikolas is still in jail and not dead so why isn't it his anymore? WHO did this? WHO is the "Cassadine Trust".? 

I wish the paper had also said: You must change his name to Apollo or Vasyl  before anything can happen. 

CHEM TEST ALERT:  Just kiss already. I also want to say, I hope Brennan turns out to be a good-bad guy and Jason is proven wrong. I'd hate it if Carly's sobbing in his arms says "you were right" at some point. Just let this develop. I can tolerate her around him a bit more then usual.

RUMORS/SPOILERS AND SPECULATIONS:  The Writers did an interview about 'what's coming' coupled with some mid-winter spoilers. I didn't read the whole thing because I don't like to know exactly what is coming. I DID see a ton of chatter on socials about everything and lordy, you sure can't please everyone!! For me? The biggest issue will be a 'developing' Sasha Jason relationship. Um, no thank you. Why? Because if she's pregnant and it's Michael's and Jason steps in, I just can't relive the entire Jarly story again. Jason's old anyway and *sigh*. Just no bueno.  Looks like Lucky and Liz might be the endgame and I'm hoping it doesn't get into boring-town too soon with guitar nights in the parlor. OH!! BUT!! Selina WU is coming back so I'm over the moon about that. Get Dr. O as well and I'll be smiling. 

That's it I think! It was a very choppy few days with the stories not flowing very well. OH! I did forget Maxie and Sasha went to get their nails done in the middle of everything (I have no idea what Day it was or night...or anything!) and Sasha might be moving to The Hamptons. She must have modeling money squirreled away! Kirsten Storms looks wonderful and I'm so happy her health seems to be good.  

NEXT WEEK'S Schedule: Repeat episodes Tuesday and Wed. Looks like bland episodes from August and September of this year are planned. 

CHEERS and have a WONDERFUL NEW YEARS CELEBRATION!
