GH: Robin gets all Scorpio on Lisa!!

I really was hoping for some good GH news--you know, new writer-- new Quartermaine resurgence for my big day. Oh well,  a girl can dream, can't she!!?

Perez Hilton is saying there's OSCAR Buzz for James Franco and 127 hours. If he gets a nom, he'd better bring a FRONKEY with him in homage to his GH days!!! He did say his GH script memorization helped him get the part because he could basically do the entire scene in one take!

Berta, celebrating for me!!

Today's GH:  If you happened to see OLTL, it totally looks like David's in Helena's dungeon! LOL. Who has David in prison?? I hear it's a stunner (if you are spoiler free, it did shock me!). Notice Dorian/Vicky??? Still around..still getting great stories (instead  of standing around). Makes me sick when I think of GH. They could have Monica/Leslie/Bobbie...we got nothin'.   Ok, Tracy but only part of the time.

Those coffee cups were so empty that Lulu was carrying, they were jiggling all over! LOL Stupid Brooke Lyn comes up and says she's just as much a victim as Dante is! What an idiot. Lante says the same sheeze over and over and over again. The writers are really REALLY messing it up putting them on every damn second.

Poor Robin. I am glad Maxie came over...she needs someone there. Liked their little talk.   Maxie's dress is gorge. I don't even remember Patrick and Lisa's night of "passion". That's how chopped up this show is. They haven't exactly had a flow of this story. Hard to care. All the actors involved are doing a bang up job though...they always do!

Wyndemere...all those boys! It's hilarious. Fencing as well. Nice, give them all swords!

Lucky and Ethan's talk. I guess it was all about Lucky's desire to be big/bad/Spencer. Then, Ethan goes to talk to Kristina who's waiting outside Johnny's room. awww.

JaSam:Found a nice little cabin. Usually in the summer, they are being used, but maybe it's a hunting cabin.

BEST PART OF THE SHOW? Robin telling Lisa she'll  kill her if she goes near Emma again. She got all Devane/Scorpio on her! woot!! Now, why doesn't Robin tell her UNCLE MAC about all this?! Is he still in the hospital recouping from the gunshots from Keifer's Dad?

FULL MOON tonight! I shall bless the charms on the deck in full light. That way I will have a happy year. Or..well, it can't hurt!

Thanks for all the bday wishes!! Love ya all! I made a new Alberta Wubs collage for the WubsNet, check  it out!!

Birthday Card

Soap Dude on Twitter posted this to me... it's made by Starrgirlfish.  GH "How the Years Go By". I did have a tear in my eye while watching. Enjoy!

General Hospital Today "One"

If you saw today's show, you know what the ONE is for. If not-- then you must watch on SoapNet at 11 tonight or on DVR because Robin says it quite poignantly during her fight with Patrick. Yes, Patrick finally spill ze beans about he and Lisa. Robin reacts with shock, sadness and finally anger. Not a happy camper--at all. Both Jason and Kimberly give wonderful performances, and it hits home how much they've been wasted in the background for months. Here's hoping their working together to bring Lisa to "sanity" or at least Shady Brook is interesting and front burner.

Brenda continues to languish in "Rome" with Murphy-- zzzzzzzzz. It has to be one of the most boring things ever written. WE DON'T CARE. :throwing up hands: Maybe Just MAYBE if she was back in Port Charles already seeing this guy, it would have worked. Watching the two of them doing much of nothing doesn't really matter.

Sonny in the PCPD, facing Claire with the tapes she made. I felt like yelling "Yeah, you big dummy" SHE'S ON THE OTHER SIDE!! LOL. Ronnie's face was priceless when he heard the evidence. Too bad he knows THIS time,  they are wrong. Sonny did shoot Johnny in self-defense. It will come down to whomever the witness turns out to be that was lurking in the shadows.

SOAPS IN DEPTH broke the news this afternoon that our beloved Leslie Charleson (Monica) has been bumped to recurring status. You might not have known it, but she still was on contract. No more. Idiots. One more nail in the Q coffin. I also told you cuts were coming in the fall...more are on the way! Who's next?

Mad Men: The Chrysanthemum and the Sword

Check out my take on Sunday's Mad Men. Go to Pop Confidential for all the  naughty Sally news!

"I Shot The Johnny, But I Swear it was in Self-Defense"

I watched OLTL and realized I must have missed a bunch of stuff. LOL. Not sure what's going on. Dorian's wedding dress was...rather...er...interesting. uck! I just hope David isn't killed off. :?!

Nathan Parsons (Jim Warren Photo)

Thought you might like to see Nathan Parsons in all his glory for the play "NeverWonderLand" -- which ended it's five week run this Sunday at the Boom Kat Theater.

GENERAL HOSPITAL TODAY:  The whole Franco thing with Brenda is just ridiculous. I DON'T CARE!! Everyone's going to see her but anyone we care about.  Good  Lord.
Lisa taking Emma was a least fun. And her nanny lets her go out for ice cream AT NIGHT? I love how she just acted like it was ok when Patrick found her. "you know, incase anything happens to Robin"....
Jax/Claire. Snooze.
Johnny being taking in the hospital. Maya hops to it! Guess she's over all that squeemish stuff. Ethan looks a bit concerned I guess. That was kind awkward. He's talking to Lucky at the PCPD and his eyeliner is running, swear to god! LOL
Sonny says he had a "Peace Plan" in place. Did I miss that sheeze? Uh...ok. Dante tells him to turn  himself in when Ronnie knocks on the door.  There goes that opportunity.
Sam in the Lopez camp was hysterical. Jason got there in record time because of her GPS. Nice work, FourSquare! The whole shoot out with JaSam was just so...Dollar Store.  The pop-flashes of the guns crack me up. I don't know, I'm so over scenes like that.
Ronnie throws Sonny's gun into the water...because we have to have a crooked cop in Port Charles. He reminds me of Taggert, without the bite. I miss Taggert!!


Did you know Adrienne Barbeau is an author? Read about her newest novel, "Love Bites" on Suite 101.  Also, she says this about her character,  Suzanne: It was totally unexpected. I got a call from my agent on a Friday night, saying I had an offer to do a 4 or 5 week arc on GH. He described the character and I said yes. Then, once I got on the set, the producers said they'd like to keep me around for awhile. And I said yes! Ergo, the rumor about her "Suzanne" coming to Port Charles looks to be happening. (Lord only knows when that will be though!!)


OTHER TV STUFF:
My Mad Men take should be on Daytime Confidential and  Pop Confidential soon.  I LOVED it. The Betty/Sally parts were brilliant. I hope they show Sally's therapy sessions. Heh.
Big Brother: I read the feeds and I'm NOT happy at how the tide is turning in the house. BOO AND all the fish have died. Kathy should have been allowed to take them with her.
Real Housewives of NJ: It's Carolyn's bday today ..and the finale is airing? How fun is that! I am waiting to see the "reunion" show.
Jersey Shore: Why do I watch? Ah...why the heck not. Reminds me of my days going  out with college friends on Long Island.  Total escapism.
Animal Hoarders: eek, scary show (Animal Planet) sad and scary

Sunday Surgery: General Hospital and The Silence of the Ratings...

Brandon, Lisa and Ronnie on San Diego Cruise for Leukemia Saturday

GHers are some of the biggest hearts out there! These three had a cruise for Leukemia research that was held in San Diego. Lisa LoCicero tweeted she's the 'luckiest woman in San Diego'!!

In prep for doing this week's Sunday Surgery I looked around my vast array of GH info and found... things really really lacking. LOL. Not a lot to be had folks. I did talk to one actor who shall remain unnamed that said when the ratings news 'hits the fan' they don't want to be anywhere near the set.  Of course, the brass already knows. There were big hopes pinned on this comeback and the numbers just weren't there ESPECIALLY when it was so hyped and had an unheard of 'nostaligia' day was planned just for it. I've seen some fans say now they are waiting  until Sonny and Brenda finally meet to watch, and others that just don't care. Of course, there are also a large group of fans that never did live through the S&B years. J&Bers are upset because there's NO mention of Jax at all in this little Roma scenerio.

For me...it's bittersweet. I am so invested in this show it's maddening. LOL. The site, the fans, the events, the actors. If this can't shake viewers out of the shadows, what can?  I really was hoping the writing would be there. Instead, it's almost like everyone took a vacation and penned the laziest thing they could think of. Production budget for the block shoot of Vanny, Adrienne and Brad Rowe was probably in the neighborhood of $44.50. Fresh flowers and champagne not counted. It will be exactly 18 working days between BB's comeback and her seeing anyone from Port Charles. You know how I feel about this. You've read it every day. You're probably sick of it!! LOL. Sorry. It just floors me that this opportunity was wasted.

SO, what's coming up in spoilers? Lisa will destroy a stuffed animal of Emma's-- she'll also make sure people know Robin's out to get her. Of course the big reveal that Patrick slept with her is coming too.  Sonny tries to convince Dante he shot Johnny because he had to. Claire's got a nice tape with Sonny saying he wants to kill Johnny on it.  Brooke Lyn's going to get in more trouble and end up with Nikolas --who needs an escort to some event. :eyeroll: Her days are numbered people. Sonny will eventually run to Rome where he'll run into, The Face of Fashion. I think some nice Olivia/Johnny scenes are coming when she's by his bedside at the hospital. Oh, a dime for every bedside gunshot-wound "monologue"!! JaSam is all in the woods, in a cabin, fleeing a fire. Catch all the spoilers on the WUBS NET. SCROLL down. I put the scoops up as I get them. Some of the ones down 'below' came awhile ago and are starting to happen now.

I am LOVING all your blog comments. Thank you for taking the time to post. I also like to see the banter and posts to each other. :) Makes me all warm  inside. We fans need to do SOMETHING  to stay with this show!! Even arguing about our fave couples/characters is a start. Right?!

HA! Carolyn Hennesy was talking about Lady Gaga and our opinions on her having the Vanity Fair cover and most followers on  Twitter.  She retweeted my take: "Rule the Dancefloor, Rule the World"... I  think I'll copyrite that!!

Kathy Griffin tweeted "Congrats to me"! Creative Arts Emmys were last night. Betty White won one...Ryan Seacrest as well.  Primetime Emmys are August 29th

A Bullet and A Target "Citizen Cope"

TV.com speculates about Nancy Lee Grahn going to Dancing with the Stars for Season 11. I have  NO idea if this is true or not, but it's fun to read.

Sarah Joy Brown!!

The reason I put that pic up is because Sarah's 'comeback' actually bumped the ratings more than ol' VMG's did! LOL. So much for the PR monster.

PopEater is reporting that Megan Fox is wearing "stepson's" tshirt. Oh, you know Vanny HATES  that!!! hah. Hopefully SHE didn't buy it for him. LOL!!

The Sonny/Johnny "war" commerical is running. When is Guza going to  buy a damn clue? WHEN?? How many mobular craptastics can we take? Between that and watching Jason get are arrested  and re-arrested every other day, I may as well just forget the show!! If it wasn't for the site, you know I'd be a go-go.

There is mucho housecleaning coming to GH from what I'm hearing.  Besides the person I mentioned before, I think the fall will see a lot of fringe characters leaving the soap.  I will NOT name names because I really think it's not fair unless I know 100%. These are people's jobs. It's not my duty to announce their leaving. I'll give that up to TV Guide or SOD.  That's why they get the big bucks.

Kristina looked so cute on today's GH and she knows all about Brenda from the fashion mags and press!! how cute. Having her talk to  Sonny and be a Brenda fan is cute. '

Today, Brenda sat on the couch and thumbed through The New York Post!! wow....excitement mounts!! LOOK HOW SHE ...SHE SITS THERE!! ahahahhaahaaa. We did get our flashback to Puerto Rico-- I wonder if TIIC realize people watch them on You Tube all the time.

Steve Burton looked so bored and miserable today it was painful. If this was a Cop Show they'd call it "PCPD Snooze" instead of "PCPD Blues"...

Johnny is shot, left bleeding on the sidewalk. Now, the Poor Sonny stuff can start.  All to get him to run to Rome to see Brenda. :thud:



I hate Brooke Lyn's giant fish-scale earrings. RIP THEM  off Olivia.
