I actually liked Friday’s episode a lot. But much hinges on whether or not the writers have a plan in mind and aren’t just plotting things along blindly. Making Griffin a priest was jaw droppingly good. The reveal made sense to me given we were first introduced to him in a chapel, and ever since he has seemed a little too good to be true. The contrast between his impulse to forgive, and Anna’s impulse to seek revenge, shifted their relationship into dynamic new territory. But that still leaves us with the weird mystery of his gunshot wound and his connection to Nathan. Whatever went down between him and Nathan, did that drive Griffin to the priesthood? See, I am hoping all of this is purposeful on the writers’ part and will have a big payoff, and it’s not a matter of a bunch of writers sitting in a room and randomly saying, “I know! Let’s make him Duke’s son!” Here’s a thought, let’s connect him with Nathan!” “I got it! Let’s make him a priest!” Now given how handsome the actor is, you know they are not going to keep Griffin in the priesthood for long because they are going to want to give him a romantic interest. This too, is a kind of tired soap trope, so I hope they can find an interesting way to match him up with someone. Am also liking the War of the Roses direction the Hayden/Nicholas story line is taking. It lightens the story, and puts them on a path to figuring out that they are, in fact, well-matched and really do love each other. I’m OK with that. I’ve liked their dynamic and anything that keeps Nicholas front and center s OK by me. Love that Elizabeth is getting a new house. Can’t wait to see it. Let’s hope they give Becky a nice new set to play on. She deserves it after all these years of being under appreciated by TPTB. Can’t see how Julian and Alexis can go on after Friday’s episode. She’s finally caught on to him, he’s looking as guilty as heck, and what he did was so appalling – brutally killing someone who was loyal to him – that it’s hard to imagine ANOTHER redemption for this character. I like deVry as an actor, but it’s time for Julian to go to jail and get off the canvas. Give Alexis something else to do besides moon over a man. What particularly made Friday’s show good was NO JaSam! Gads, these two are bores. OK, Jason has his memories back. Now time for him to decide what his future will look like. If he’s coupling with Sam, fine, I’ll just fast forward through those scenes. But give Jason a purpose, aka a job. Maybe one that is not connected to either Sonny or the Quatermaines. Give Billy Miller a chance to finally make the character his own by giving Jason a new purpose. And GH, where’s Laura?… Read more »

Anna will never get justice for Duke…In PC crime pays and makes you the shows new hero…Julian has got to pay-send him to prison and write the character out-same with Ava and all other criminals who commit murders…gosh i miss Edge Of Night-criminals always paid for their crimes and never made the shows heroes-once killed off most stayed dead too!!!…the best murder storyline was when Winter Austen was found not guilty for murder and it turned out she was the murderer but in the end she died and justice was served the way it should be for any murderer!!!

This is an interesting story but I dont like the way they are writing Anna. She has morphed into a revenge at all costs obsession to get Julian. She will sacrifice legal rights, family, friends to get what she wants. I dont like this, Anna has always been a person of the law. What an example she is for little Emma. NOT! Even Duke wouldnt want this for her.

This was one of the finest episodes GH has ever produced. The time went by so fast that I was gaping at the previews not even comprehending them. Glanced at the wall clock and thought it must be running fast. It was like a vivid dream that left you a bit unsure of your own status for a few seconds. More please.

Okay Anna has become a bit Moby Dickish with her obsession for justice for Duke. She is not even law enforcement so how can she and Sonny be allowed in Carlo’s hospital room. How many times have loved ones been shooed out those rooms, but these two can waltz right in. Frankly I used to like Anna but lately her pursuing her white whale named Julien is making her more unlikeable by the minute.

As for Griffin being a priest, he must have been pretty darn young when he went to Seminary. It takes about seven years of study to become a priest and I am sure medical school and training to be a doctor takes about the same amount of time, so he must have drank a lot Red Bull to pull off training for both– LOL

I never thought I would say this’
I hope someone shoots and kills Anna ..

That character needs to put out of my misery..
It’s sad, indeed— that J&S destroyed the greatness of the strong power woman Anna..
I can hardly tolerate watching her, anylonger.. (and that is a shame.

As for carlos– he died magnificently !

Griff.. I knew he was priest/holly whatever very early on, no surprise ..

I thought Friday’s episode was great. Anna and Griffin struggling in different ways. Their portrayals were wonderful. Sonny being the last person one might expect to be the voice of reason and adding some dry wit when least expected. You could feel Anna’s frustration as she stood there wondering what alternate universe she had stepped into. The surprise priest to her right. The alter boy mobster to her left. The evil murderer on his death bed feeling deserving of sainthood. Catholics and non-catholics probably chuckled at some of the dialog, for different reasons. It worked. Great job.

I loved the episode with 1 exception. I can’t believe GH crossed this line of all lines, in my opinion they showed nothing but blatant disrespect to the Catholic Ceremony. Not being of this faith I am not sure of the rules but I would assume last rites should be a private matter – if ANYONE else would be present I would think it would be family. On top of that Anna insisting this has to stop right now so she can get her confession?? Seriously GH ?? I also believe Confession is a private matter as well. This just rubbed me the wrong way & a big thumbs down to GH !!

If I am wrong then I retract my post but I don’t think I am.
