Erica tells Jack she needs to attend to some “business” and goes to see Caleb and Jackson watches from afar.  Krystal consoles Jack over the Erica situation. Krystal worries about Annie’s downward spiral and warns her to stay away from both Marissa and the bar.  JR reassures both Marissa and Krystal that he has the Annie situation under control; he’s called Dr. Burke from Oak Haven. JR is disturbed when he finds the stolen jewelry in Annie’s room. Kendall and Greenlee bond; Kendall offers up her house to Greenlee for the wedding but she says she’d rather have the wedding at Fusion.  Kendall, Greenlee & Ryan all toast to Kendall’s return to Fusion. After Ryan takes David to the rooftop mayhem ensues. Ryan threatens him and says he will be arrested for appearing to escape; Ryan’s got all areas covered and leaves.  David’s cuffed after Jesse finds him and despite insisting his innocence all evidence (a helicopter, Ryan’s alibi) points to a planned escape. With David “missing” from his room, Erica heads off to find Kendall after Jesse says David might want revenge on the person who shot him. When Marissa threatens to quit David insists Ryan set him up. David uses his one phone call to call Kendall down to the prison.  He brings up the photo of her trying to smother him with the pillow but Kendall doesn’t seem concerned. As she walks out Kendall collapses to the ground. Annie admits to JR that she staged the burglary which is the last straw for him. JR insists they can’t be together until unless she talks to someone. JR tells Tad that he won’t cut Annie loose just because she is “broken”.   JR returns Marissa’s stolen belongings, claiming he found them in pawn shop. Brot & Natalia each take measures to be together. When Brot is unsuccessful in getting fired, he resigns, but after Natalia tells the group she got a job with the Philly PD Jesse admits he stopped Brot’s letter from going through. Before visiting with David at the prison, Kendall shares an awkward moment with Ricky when she thinks he’s asking her out but both admit they just want a friendship.  The two make a date for dinner the following week. Jackson walks in on Erica and Caleb in an embrace and jumps to conclusions. Erica tells Jackson that he’s got the wrong idea and admits Kendall shot David and that’s why she’s been so close with Caleb lately.

Tensions run high between Erica and Jackson over their strained relationship as they deal with the fact Kendall is back in the hospital.  Jackson expresses his frustration with Erica for keeping things from him and she admits David knows that Kendall was the one to shoot him. Griffin informs Erica and Jackson that Kendall is developing an aneurysm. Cara becomes frustrated after Tad declines her offer of help on his investigation.  Knowing Jake was the one to put the kibosh on it, she asks him not to act differently towards her now that he knows the truth of her leukemia. Kendall barely survives her collapse and David is unlocked from his cell to help revive her. Madison’s pregnancy starts to show & Scott helps her to cover up her bump in front of Bianca. Madison drives Ryan to the hospital after learning about Kendall’s collapse and they share memories of their relationship.  Greenlee’s grateful Madison didn’t let Ryan get behind the wheel because he had been drinking at Krystal’s. Despite Ryan’s admission to Greenlee that they can get through anything she still holds back from telling him about Madison’s pregnancy.  JR wants to keep good ties with Marissa after the divorce and seemingly cut ties with Annie.  Marissa and JR agree to be good parents to AJ and remain friends. Annie gets worried JR’s breaking up with her when he says she just ruined everything and can’t take it anymore. Scott starts to take his relationship with Madison more serious than just a fling but when they’re by Kendall’s he notices the longing in her eyes towards Ryan.

Kendall’s friends and family try to convince her to get the surgery.  Erica encourages her not to give up and promises to be there to help her move on after it’s all over. Kendall overhears Ryan and David arguing outside her room and she flashes to a memory of shooting David. Griffin informs Bianca that Kendall could die during surgery. After Kendall reveals she was the one who shot David, Griffin leaves a message for Erica on Kendall’s behalf.  When Kendall doesn’t hear back she leaves to go and find her. After the cab driver drops her by the park Kendall’s hit with abdominal pain and collapses.  Luckily Griffin reaches Kendall on her cell and after she tells him what happened he along with Jake and Cara go find her.  As they’re on the way to the hospital they get into an accident with Annie. The Hubbard’s and Brot have a celebratory dinner for Natalia. Brot gives Natalia one of his Iraq medals for not running away from them and their love. Annie’s downward spiral starts to become unbearable. An exhausted JR reassures her that he loves her and suggests they both go and see Dr. Burke.  After JR is called away on business Colby shows up and gets Annie to admit that she was behind the burglary. Once Colby admits she taped the confession Annie handcuffs her to a chair and races home to make her appointment with Dr. Burke. As she’s rushing home she sees a hallucination of Marissa and winds up crashing her car into the ambulance carrying Kendall, Griffin, Jake and Cara.

General Hospital

General Hospital’s Réal Andrews and Finola Hughes Deliver the ‘Power Performances of the Week’

June 4, 2023

Two different storylines, two noteworthy performances, and both from General Hospital, made our weekly kudofest.  The first, belongs to the heartbreaking performance that still has everyone talking by Réal Andrews as Marcus Taggert.

Last week’s episodes of GH, brought with it the results of the DNA test that ‘proves’ just who is Trina’s (Tabyana Ali) biological father, Taggert or Curtis (Donnell Turner)? When Trina opened the envelope to reveal the answer in front of Portia, Curtis and Taggert, she announced it was Curtis, who was her dad.

However, if you watched the scenes carefully, you saw the subtle work by Andrews as he was attempting to remain calm before receiving the answer and what followed afterwards, but that was in front of Trina, Portia and Curtis and his attempt to put on a brave face through it all.  In reality, Taggert was devastated by the news.  When he said his goodbyes, Taggert got inside the GH elevator.  Once there, he lost it and began to cry, punching the elevators walls with his fist.  A five-hank

Meanwhile, Finola Hughes once again showed us the layers and the veracity of Anna Devane. This time, while at WSB headquarters, Anna’s past as a double agent comes to light.  Agent Hersley had her under arrest, as she is being accused of treason against the state.

While Anna’s past as a DBX double agent were known to the agency, they weren’t known to the public. Thanks to Victor’s will reading and the revenge plot he set in motion against her, now Anna is up against more formidable foes.  When speaking with her lawyer, Martin Grey (Michael E. Knight), Anna says how can she dispute the charges against her when they are true?  She realizes in this instant that the WSB wants to hang her out to dry to cover their own asses.  Hersley threatens Anna, that if she fights the charges, they will be forced into looking into the actions of her associates, Robert Scorpio and Annie Donnelly.

Not having it, Anna throws down saying she will seriously embarrass the WSB if they pursue this … and if anything happens to Robert, Annie or anyone else she cares about, she will take the bureau down with her.  After Hersley caves, Martin asks Anna what happened. Anna states she is no longer an agent and will never be again.

This material gave the mighty Hughes the material to shine, as Anna went from having the rug pulled out from under her, to fighting back, to now not knowing what her future holds after saving others.

For all the reasons cited above, Michael Fairman TV names the work of Réal Andrews and Finola Hughes as last week’s ‘Power Performances of the Week”.

Do you agree with our picks of GH’s Réal and Finola? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below, but first check out some clips from their work below.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown: Roman Reigns Discards Jimmy Uso From The ‘Bloodline’, Will Jey Be Next?

June 3, 2023

While Roman Reigns was presented with a new WWE Universal Championship belt courtesy of Triple H, a night of familial drama would ensue for The Bloodline on Friday Night Smackdown.

Last night’s episode was also pivotal to Reigns enduring run as the kingpin of the WWE. The Tribal Chief has now held the championship for over 1,000 days. The last time any wrestler approached that was 40 years ago with the legendary Pedro Morales.

After Reigns was presented with a shiny new belt (that Triple H secured around Roman’s waist), out came the Usos. Earlier in the night, Reigns’ special counsel, Paul Heyman, told Solo Sikoa that he received confirmation from WWE official Adam Pearce that Sikoa’s brothers (the Usos) would not be in attendance.  Well, he heard wrong!

As Reigns was about to address the crowd, the music hit and standing in front of the champ were Jimmy and Jey.  Now, the storyline that has captivated the WWE Universe could move forward.  When we last saw the Usos and Reigns in the ring, it was at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia.  It was there that Jimmy Uso kicked Roman in the head, after his cousin roughed him up and pushed him around.

This time, Jimmy and Roman had a long staredown. Finally, The Tribal Chief ordered Jey Uso to kick his brother in the face. Reigns continually barked orders at Jey, but Jey refused to comply.  When Jimmy got on the mic, he let Reigns know that he has become manipulative and abusive. He warned his younger brother, Solo, that he would go down in flames once Roman was done using him, too.

Next, Reigns handed the mic to Solo and told him to choose sides … the Tribal Chief or his brothers? At first, Sikoa ‘acknowledged’ Reigns, but then in a major moment walked over to stand beside his brothers, leaving Roman all alone on his “Island of Relevancy”.

In an effort to keep the peace, Jimmy Uso asked Reigns if he could move forward with respect for every one of them.  Jimmy told Roman that he is their brother, too, in an effort to put what’s happened in the past behind them. Could he do that?  Now with tears in his eyes, and seemingly conflicted, Reigns moved in for big embrace for Jimmy.  However, it was all a set-up. Roman said “no’ and out of the corner of his eye signaled Sikoa who was also in on the double cross. Solo gave the Samoan Spike to Jimmy who went down as Jey looked on and went to help his brother.

As Roman left the ring with Heyman and Sikoa by his side, Reigns’ special council asked him, “What about Jey?” A confident Reigns said that Jey would fall in line, as per usual.

You could not have found better soap opera on any channel than this story right here! The dissolution of the ‘Bloodline’ has to be near.

What will happen next? Will it be the Usos vs. Roman and Sikoa? Will Jey or Jimmy challenge Reigns for the championship? Who will swerve who next? Share your thoughts in the comment section, but first check out the highlights from the ‘Bloodline’s’ story from last night’s ‘Smackdown’ below.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Cameron Begins His Plot to Frame Nick As His Return Rocks Sharon to the Core

June 3, 2023

After having a flashback of calling Sharon (Sharon Case) ‘his dream girl’, Cameron Kirsten (Linden Ashby) escalates his revenge plot against Sharon and Nick (Joshua Morrow), when he heads to Crimson Lights and comes face to face with them.

Nick has already had it, while Sharon is visibly shaken.  Cameron says he just stopped to give Sharon a proper hello, now that he is back in Genoa City and out of prison. He then adds … that he ran into their daughter, Faith (Reylynn Caster), and comments on what a beauty she is.

Those buzz words set in motion the reaction Cameron was hoping for.  Nick warns the ex-convict to stay away from their daughter. Cameron goes on to say that he just can’t understand why Nick is getting so worked up and violent when he comes in peace.  When Nick questioned Cameron as to what he wants, Cameron coyly says, “That’s a discussion for another time.”  He takes another gander at Sharon and heads out.

While already using the word ‘violent’, it’s clear that Cameron is going all out to payback Nick.  Next week on the CBS daytime drama series, Kirsten takes things up a notch ticking off Nick even further.

According to Soap Opera Digest on their latest issue on newsstands now, Chance (Conner Floyd) will arrive at Crimson Lights to give Nick the news that Kirsten is pressing battery and assault charges against him.  According to Joshua Morrow, “Nick is stunned and swears to Chance that he didn’t touch Cameron.”  Things take an even uglier turn, when Cameron shows up not looking so good.

Watch two key clips of Cameron’s return to Genoa City and his confrontation with Nick and Sharon and a preview for next week’s Y&R.

Now let us know, will Cameron’s plot land Nick in jail leaving a pathway for him to go after Sharon and Faith? Share your thoughts on the story thus far via the comment section.
