Sunday Surgery: Achtung Baby

 


I'm going to talk about MY FAVES and joyful things on the show right now. Thank You for the RAVA moment. LOVE it. Two great actors and I'm here for it. Ok, a little snark here and there if you like that. I can't quite quit being a beetch!! 

What did you LIKE THIS WEEK??   Grab a great breakfast and let's GO GO


HAIR CARE: Awwwww, hopefully Avery had fun decorating Joss. I actually liked Lucas in the kitchen eating a sammy. He's a good actor and a welcome character. Moss also approved. 


FUNNY PHOTO: From Chad's IG ... at least we can laugh about it. I mean, his face wasn't touched and eyebrows? Still there!! Not even a singe! 


MORE FROM IG:  There's our Becky and Kate. Cute photos on Kate's IG from the "Charlie's Launch". I will refrain from commenting on the bar lamps. 


TRACEY FOR THE WIN:
Every scene she was in was a delight. Let's not dwell on the whole "arrested" part while the kids were driving around and then in the Gatehouse.  OR the fact that this whole thing is playing like a farce, just enjoy! 



THANK GOD: Sonny was SAVED by LaRue because without Sonny ...well.  She also found a cool bra at Victoria's Secret!!  


MARTY FUN: 
My fave lawyer is having a blast with Tracey and going around town doing his own thing. He's trying to explain Cyrus' behavior by equating it to their mother's plight. I must admit, I thought she was dead...so there's that. 


JULIAN JEROME FLANNE
L makes a splash at Charlie's opening!! Very fitting as Cody is reverting back to his 2022 character. Get that plaid out!  


DREW IN A BRO SUIT:  Just think people!! He will be off to DC soon right?? RIGHT?? That's something to look forward to--right??!! Also, great use of that 2004 Banana Republic slim-suit. 





GERMANY: Hey, Carly's your problem now.  Gootentog. Ok, I can't spell anything German but we are hoping you grant her a long term visa. 




COBRA KAI:   There you are!! I was afraid since we haven't seen you in like a week, you were gone. PHEW!!! Our Star QB just chillin' in the bed. Wonder if you'll make those big leagues. I mean NFL. Hmmm... no one can see what's coming. So exciting. 


SET USE!! OH! The docks are back!! Even though it's sub-zero in WNY, they are still getting people out on the docks and going to Wyndemere!! Maybe Sidwell can start an ice fishing business. 



WEEK IN A WUBSHELL: 

Anna finds out Sidwell isn't wanted by anyone! Not WSB, FBI or ICE!! Long live Sidwell! 

Sasha is happy she's pregnant. 

Charlie's got a make over and one bartender

Cody ended up in the clinker

Tracey played chess with the kids but eventually St. Jaysus saved the day

Michael is off to Germany for burn treatments

Sonny Didn't Die. 

Ava got a new apartment and a kiss from Ric

Willow  is back at the Gatehouse

Drew sucks

Lucky and Liz are going to 'investigate' Cyrus

Lulu got the job

Kai probably won't play for the NFL :sad horn: 

Curtis didn't take Drew's bait, still won't let him back into Aurora

Liz and Lucky decide to go investigate Cyrus 

Tracey tells Willow Drew can't come visit her at the Gatehouse 

Brennan shows up in Germany to soothe Carly's pain 


AND THERE YOU GO!! I'm not talking about the editing or scores of boring repeat scenes we've had. Nope!!  One thing I really miss is Dr. O. She'd fit right in. Also, is that it for Selina Wu? Where's Olivia? She's way more entertaining than Natalia. Give LLC a contract and boot the other. Lois will be on when the Gio thing is brought out. I also have to say it's HYSTERICAL to think that Ava can't get emergency custody after a BOMB went off at Sonny's. Not only that, Avery is at his ex-wife's who has NO rights and is OUT OF THE COUNTRY. I mean, you did pretzels getting the stupid Amelia/Wiley stuff going but you can't do anything about this situation?? Ava should have just moved right into Carly's while she's gone! 

Told you I'd get a little feisty! Have a great Sunday.

  1. Thank you, as always, for the recap- even with a bit of fiesty! :)

  2. Thanks. Nothing wrong with feisty. lol And you hit all the high points. I loved all things Tracy, of course. And I'm glad Lucas will be doing some investigating now and getting a good storyline. I'm thinking that Sidwell being on Spoon Island is a good thing. He'll probably have a sub bringing shipments into the island and sending them on from there to the coast. Anna and company can troll the tunnels looking for evidence. It'll be a nice change from sitting on that bench in the hospital .

  3. Thank you! Not only another great SS but an uplifting one. Good or bad GH is certainly a welcome distraction.
    Where oh where can Dr. O be? Still need to shed a few characters but not her.
    Ava and Ric are heading to super couple status. First kiss was a bit awkward but they'll be fine.
    Most of the dialogue lately contains talk of custody and kids. But we rarely see any.
    Drew continues to delightfully prove what a low-life creep he has become.
    Remember a couple of weeks ago Sasha was in church/chapel and Sidwell was sitting behind her incognito? Now he is displaying his wares audaciously. It does get confusing.

  4. The whole show is stupid and confusing. I do love Ava LaRue's pink coat; I want it. Useless character, AND Sonny would be dead IRL. lol.

    I do think that L&L2 still have chemistry; PLEASE do something good with them.

    Minus 10 here this winter; apparently not in Port Chuckles.

    Love the maxi pads on Michael's chin but he still has BEAUTIFUL complexion.

    Like the awkward RAva kiss even thought the rest is nonsense.

    Wish Carly would NOT be shown in "Germany"

    Wish Drew would NOT be shown and gone to Wash DC where politicians BELONG

    And, Tracy is great!!!!!!!!

    Thanks for you hard work Karen. Don't mind the snarky at all, because this show deserves it these days.

  5. your blog and the comments here are really the ONLY things getting me through this disaster called General Hospital. I am just befuddled as to what the writers and Frank are doing...
    -----we ARE being forced with Natalia, so they must be paying Eva big bucks/she wasn't working/now we gotta deal with her and Sonny.
    -----from day one I have thought Natalia KNEW who Sonny was.....I dunno......now I am also resting on the theory that Natalia MIGHT be interesting is if Sidwell IS her ex?
    ----hate Drew and Willow
    ----okay SO February sweeps starts this week------what do you think? Cyrus dies???? Drew and Nina are exposed? Carly and Brennan have sex? Sonny's heart? WHAT will be the big thing?
    -----I think Joss is gonna shoot someone accidentally....and again HOW STUPID is it that she walked in without references or anything and was told she could volunteer?

    1. From TVB.0rg:

      Nielsen retired the diary methodology in July 2018, and all Nielsen local markets are now measured year round. As a result, there are no longer only special “Sweeps” months. Instead, there are now twelve survey periods and all months are measured the same way.

    2. It has seemed to me for quite a while that "sweeps" months meant nothing or at least not much. I loved those Nielson diaries. It was fun to participate.

    3. I just did the diary Nielsen in November and got my 5.00 LOL - and then in December I did the radio Nielsen and got my 5.00 --- so they are still doing it -

  6. also I have changed my thinking about Brook Lynn- Gio IS her kid but I think CODY is the father and they cheated on Dante....and NOW Cody has a reason to straighten up - he has a son....

    1. I like your idea better mufasa. THAT would be more soapy. How well did BrookLyn know Cody during camp though? Plus, I don't want Brooklyn and Dante to have a kid together.

      Delete
  7. I think Brennan "likes" Carly, but is using her BIG TIME to get to Sonny

  8. Thanks for the Sunday surgery. I think the problem is that the cast is just too big. There are so many stories left dangling and they take too long to resolve. They could get rid of Willow, Drew, Nina, TJ, and Cody. That would help a bit.
