Episode Three Hundred Fourteen - 11/29/2024

Friday Nov 29, 2024

Gia and Keisha are back, and Gia is sharper than ever due to the brain-enhancing powers of Stovetop Stuffing?! Keisha is still struggling to recall, well, anything. Apologies for the delay (snow=no power), and thank you for your patience! Also lacking power, the courtroom scenes? Not so interesting? But Lulu's journey from Turning Woods to the Quartermaine mansion had some nice moments. Cody was lovely, but James may have been the standout. He can go toe-to-toe with the best of them. Take note, Wiley!

Episode Three Hundred Thirteen - 11/25/2024

Monday Nov 25, 2024

Gia and Keisha are delighted! How often does that happen? They're delighted because Jason and Dante are stepping up and putting their kids first. Doing the right thing only makes them more appealing. And then there's Drew. Wrong thing(s). So unappealing. Michael has shifted into revenge mode, and Gia couldn't be happier. Keisha is getting there. Meanwhile, Lulu has experienced a remarkable recovery, so maybe transferring her to Turning Woods was a good move? Cyrus is a great motivator. And then there's the trial. Which still has the potential to be interesting, but it's not there yet.

Episode Three Hundred Twelve - 11/21/2024

Thursday Nov 21, 2024

The girls (middle-aged women) are not drinking tonight. The good news is they still get along just fine! Does Gia talk about apples? Yes, but only briefly. Does Keisha struggle to remember essential information? Absolutely. Both felt the absence of key characters during the mourning of Sam. Laura?! Diane?! Both are worried about the children! Both are already adjusting to the idea of Sasha and Michael. Both are concerned about Elizabeth. They love Elizabeth. If only they could be more like Elizabeth.

Episode Three Hundred Eleven - 11/18/2024

Monday Nov 18, 2024

We're making progress, America, World, Portugal. Only Keisha is drinking tonight. But Gia is still waxing poetic about apples, so maybe progress isn't the right word. Both G and K think Lucky has the potential to be a very compelling character, but only if he can convince us he's older than Aiden. And that will be nearly impossible. Because Aiden looks like he's in his forties. Gia is feeling conflicted abut the pummeling Drew received. Keisha is not. Both agree Dante is awesome. And Cody is actually turning out to be quite a pleasant man, so good for him!

Episode Three Hundred Ten - 11/14/2024

Thursday Nov 14, 2024

America. World. Portugal. Gia and Keisha are not themselves. Or too much themselves. Or just too much. And tonight, thanks to another round of drinks (sure, blame it on the drinks), they are way too much. Gia talks about apples for ten minutes, for crying out loud. No one in Port Charles was eating an apple! And Keisha didn't seem to mind. If they don't police each other, this thing is going to drift into absurdity (yeah, yeah). But before they stopped trying, G and K did have nice things to say about Diane, Elizabeth, and Jason (when he was pounding Drew). So nice to see Drew get a good pounding. So nice.

Episode Three Hundred Nine - 11/11/2024

Monday Nov 11, 2024

So perhaps to mirror the recurring sloppiness of General Hospital, Gia and Keisha have decided to enjoy an adult beverage with tonight's discussion. And things unravel a bit. Not like Willow and Michael's marriage, but still not pretty. And how about that Willow? Naughty. And for what? That guy? Michael, mobilize Tracy and Cody to take that guy down! Meanwhile, Diane and Alexis may be throwing back a few like Gia and Keisha if they're not careful. And what's the deal with Anna and Jason? Maybe they should pop the cork on something and have a little fun.

Episode Three Hundred Eight - 11/07/2024

Thursday Nov 07, 2024

Oh dear. Willow, you seem to have a Drew in your pants. And Drew. Shame. On. You. Pretty soon the children will have to raise themselves at the Quartermaine compound. Their parents don't even seem to know what a nursery is for. And meanwhile the grieving continues. Sonny is doing his best to be a murderous mobster with a beautiful and tender side. Dante is adrift. Kristina and Molly, still kind of annoying. And P.S. Please, less Holly.

Episode Three Hundred Seven - 11/04/2024

Monday Nov 04, 2024

General Hospital continues to impress! Gia and Keisha are all weepy and fragile, and it's harder to say mean things about Drew (harder, but not impossible) when wiping away tears. But he still sucks. Kudos to the kids for holding their own in every scene, and to Laura, Carly, and Alexis for flexing those mom muscles. Less impressive: Holly, Kristina, and Molly. Can these characters be saved? Let's hope!

Episode Three Hundred Six - 10/31/2024

Thursday Oct 31, 2024

Wow. So maybe Gia and Keisha owe the writers an apology. Some great moments this week! Alexis and Jason made Sam's death feel like the loss it was. Gia and Keisha were so ragged from the sadness that they perhaps overshared. Meanwhile, over at the Quartermaine mansion, Drew was showing everyone exactly why he wouldn't be missed (and why wasn't he at the hospital?). Cody is the voice of truth we've all been waiting for, so he can't leave now. And Michael and Sasha or Cody and Willow are starting to look like a better idea than Willow and Michael. Also great this week: Tracy and Ned, Nina and Willow, Mac and Cody, Maxie and Cody, James and Cody. G and K have really come around on Cody!

Episode Three Hundred Five - 10/28/2024

Monday Oct 28, 2024

Heather is free! And she's the only one feeling that exclamation point. Not even Ace could bear to give her a proper hello. Will she become Sedona's problem? Could Port Charles be that lucky? Probably not. Maybe Steven could take Holly to Sedona instead? That would still equal one problem solved. And how much longer will Sam be around? Just long enough for everyone to believe she's going to be fine? Poor Dante. Poor Alexis. Poor Danny and Scout. Poor Laura and Rocco, who will understand the pain Sam's family is in. Not so poor Molly and Kristina, who have been reduced to characters who only acknowledge their own pain. And poor Sasha and Cody, who had a real shot at a soap opera rarity, a drama-free relationship. So close.
