But they were sitting on two separate benches, nothing obvious about that. LOL

Thank you, jimh! EXTREMELY dumb writing! Our Anna would NEVER be so careless and foolhardy! Just another prime example of the current regime writing a character TOTALLY counter to their essence….also not at all jazzed with that Jordan person. She comes off as so snotty and arrogant….her reveal as an undercover drug agent was awfully contrived, too….how convenient. It’s like they grasped at anything to try to make her likeable and useful when she really is just totally unnecessary…like most of the newbies we get these days!

Yes, I have thought the same thing. That is very stupid. Sitting on a public bench, back to back, where the world can see and hear?
I believe Rafe gave himself away while conversing with Miss Monotone (Sam) that he may have caused the accident. I wish she would speak with a bit of colour, enthusiasm. Her sotto voce manner of speaking is unnerving.
I have read earlier posts about much criticism concerning Nina. Please, everyone, give Michelle a chance. She is a great actress, deserving our attention. Do not let her subservient demeanor fool you. I am sure her claws will be sharpened soon enough. I hope Silas’ feelings for Nina are resurrected, hence realizing his love for her is still very much alive.
On a different note, Sabrina has obviously shifted into a world of her own creation, a means to cope with the pain of her loss. This is the perfect way to send her off into oblivion. That is, a mental institution or some kind of rehab facility. I know from personal experience that the loss of a child; grandchild in my case; will remain a constant companion.

Thank You! I have been saying this all week.

@Nonna….While I love the character of Sam, I do concur with you on Kelly M.’s delivery skills….she needs less mumbling and more enunciation, plus a bit of animation thrown in for good measure. In another matter regarding Ms. Morgan, could wardrobe please quit attiring her in tank tops that are cut so low that I constantly fear for her having a “wardrobe malfunction?” I literally dubbed the end of last week, “Fallout Friday” because so many of the female cast members were wearing tops so totally immodest that I expected a mass tumbling out of their assets. It’s bad enough the we are forever subjected to NLG’s cleavage exhibitionism, but now it has spread to almost the entire female population of PC, save for Epiphany. In certain situations, it may not be such a big deal, but for Maxie to walk into a judge’s chamber so exposed seemed to be not only in poor taste, but just a really bad fashion choice. I’m actually surprised a lot of these women and their bodacious bods made it past network standards…then again, me thinks apparently there really aren’t any in that respect anymore.

What I thought was beyond stupid was Anna talking to Jordan while Jordan’s holding the phone. So…a passerby would think what…that Anna was talking to herself?

LOL. Dumb.

Didn’t realize Rafe was that young– thought he was older– okay if those are the ages, then you’re right Kiki might be their child— and I get what you’re saying about newbies taking over the screen, although fairly new to GH– less 2 years, I have the same issue with Y&R, been watching for over 30 years and so many people I don’t know or care about on screen all the time — it does make a longtime viewer feel cheated, like their investment in watching a group of core characters has been sweep away by the whim of writers who don’t know or care for the show as much as we do. All shows need new characters to keep things fresh, but they should be interacting with the core characters, not be the whole show, so I feel your pain.

Yes, Johnny. I believe my granddaughter deduced exactly that weeks ago. But, I love your wording much better; “unholy alliance”? I really like that expression.

I agree Johnny…its like us fans know what will happen next before the spoilers…did you see that stupid scene in the park with Commisioner Devane and Jordan, supposedly an undercover agent, talking about PCs mob ect. right there in the open for all to see? Ridiculous!!!

Johnny,
RC let us know.. he dropped more hints than needed, he had us LOL 🙂
Nonetheless, there have been many twists&turn that were total surprise.. 🙂

Only someone whose brain had stopped working wouldn’t have known AJ was Ava… lol
RC wanted us to now that so we could all cheer QJ on to being found not guilty!
RC wants us to know what he wants us to know for us to get into the story knowing when they don’t know.. lol
soap writing 101 ..

Rape…not rale.

A.J. did some rather despicable things, but you’re right, it was all in the name of saving his son’s life from Sonny and Carly. I love Carly, she may be my favorite character on the entire show, but she makes very poor life choices. I kind of hate Sonny. I see through the b.s. and recognize that he’s a thug and a bully and I kind of agree with Monica. I mean, who bangs his youngest son’s middle aged girlfriend in the tomb of the birth father of his adopted eldest son that he murdered? Sonny is a jerk. Now, if you retcon some of A.J.’s actions from the past, particularly marrying Courtney and terrorizing her by hiring Coleman to stalk her to get revenge on Sonny, he was just a real f. up and not much more. I do miss the big lug, though.

But, I still think Sonny was the real villain here, and not A.J.

He didn’t push her- he grabbed her, she pulled away, falling down the stairs. Besides, if he was going to push her, he’d make sure she was DEAD!!!!

go to YT and see .AJ did not push Snarly down the stairs. She came to the house to shove it in AJ’s face that she was pregnant with Scummys child.She was rubbing it in, and she tripped. He tried to grab her to stop her from falling. he should have shoved her for all the dirty things she did to him. If she had died falling down the stairs, I would have cheered. AJ was the EVUL why because he was an alcoholic who fell off of the wagon. GMAB.This show is a joke. I don’t care who caused the accident. Rafe is now the EVUL. he has been Ron’s whipping boy, now he will probably be the one who was on drugs and caused the accident. Rafe is hurting, and the people who are suppose to notice are to busy with their own problems. Remember Alexis killing Krissys abuser.? She still gets to practice law.?

Avatar, I agree AJ didn’t push Carly. I was being ironical.

lmfao…im going to give some of my plaid shirts to goodwill now!!!

Oh, no, Jimh, don’t do that. Plaid shirts are still very much en vogue. But, looking at your name has just sparked a nostalgic thought. Rafe looks like Wally. How odd!

@Nonna! LOL. He DOES look like Wally…actually I think he looks like a cross between Wally and the Beav…

I don’t know about those plaid shirts jimh…I’m thinkin’ only a model could pass those suckers off as “en vogue.” I vote goodwill good riddens!

@jimh….Didn’t mean to stir a debate over the merits of plaid…there is nothing wrong with it, per se! (So please save yourself a trip to Goodwill….LOL.) I was simply referring to the retro style of shirt that Rafe wore as doing him no favors….particularly when mixed with his unfortunate choice of jewelry! Every time they do a close-up on his angelic little visage those clunky diamond studs just look so girlie and WRONG! I think some pirate hoops would have looked more masculine and bad @$$, along with a black tee shirt (ala “Jason”) to reflect his move to the “dark side.” But fashion choices as a means of expressing one’s character has never been a strong suit for GH…most likely due to budgetary concerns, I would suppose.

@Nonna and rebecca1….I actually think our Rafe looks like a cross between “The Beave” and “Eddie Munster,” aka Butch Patrick. I really wish that for the Halloween episodes the wardrobe wizards would have clad this problem manchild in an Eddie-style short velvet pantsuit along with the obligatory “Wolfie” doll as an accessory!!!! Would have been a hoot!!!!

okay…I’m getting back on the Rafe train as another image comes to mind…Anson Williams aka Potsie from Happy Days! LOL…if they ever do a modern day remake we’ve got Steve Burton as Fonzie and “Rafe” as Potsie… Dr. O can be Mrs. Cunningham and Mac could be Mr….

Oh the endless possibilities… LOL!

@rebecca1…OMG! You are SO right, Rafe does look like “Potsie!” He is such an amalgam of retro-sitcom stars it isn’t even funny!!!

Agree. You’re right. I wasn’t adding the years. (Although maybe like his father (who knows? maybe he IS a vampire!…so too is Rafe and thus is older than he looks! 😉 )

I do suspect there’s a child of theirs out there that Madeleine has hidden away…

As for Rafe…they made him this good, sweet boy from the beginning. Vulnerable, sympathetic, likeable. But LOL…they really have made him rather wimpy. Did you see how he ducked…practically cowered when TJ was about to punch him? C’mon Rafe. No girl, let alone Molly, is going to be attracted to you “man up.”

That thought did cross my mind and may actually be the case. Perhaps Madeleine thought her daughter would wake from the coma and she’d be able to tell her that Silas and Ava had a baby…increasing the emotional wallop of the affair.

But I don’t think Ava’s removed from Kiki…actually, I think other than Morgan she’s the only person Ava cares about. I certainly don’t see them as sisters…just that Kiki is drawn as a tough chick who doesn’t take “stuff” from anyone, including her mother. And with all her mother has done to her…lying about her father, sleeping with Morgan…there’s a natural detachment and resentment (which by the way seems to be dissipating).

But now that I think about it that gets confusing. Why, if Ava loved Silas so much, would she not tell him they had a daughter? It would suit both her and Madeleine’s cause if she had…

And on another note…if Kiki does turn out to be Nina’s…it could put another wedge between Sam and Silas, who I’m actually rooting for.

@rebecca1…I agree that my Kiki maternity theory has a few holes in it, but then again that never stopped RonC from fitting a storyline to his particular whims. I’m not saying that Ava is necessarily removed from her “daughter”….I do believe she sincerely cares for her, but there is just something off about that relationship that I could never quite put my finger on. Also, I am sure there is so much more to Ms. Jerome’s background that has left to be revealed, so there could be any variety of explanations as to why she withheld her “babygirl” from Silas….pressure from others, blackmail, the relationship with Franco???? Whatever it was, I’m sure it was to serve Ava’s purposes at the time, because she always has an angle and does what is best for her welfare, first and foremost. As for this possible revelation putting a wedge between Sam and Silas, well, I fear there are going to be many so-called “wedges” on the horizon for them…..particularly one called “Jason?” I cannot foresee a happy summer or autumn for this couple, and that certainly displeases me….we have been waiting a long time for them to get together and arrive at a happy place, and now there is going to be all this upcoming turmoil. Oh well, what can I say? It’s a soap….LOL.

Ciao, “Nonna” e benvenuta! What a treat to have you join us here! We have been wondering about your darling and much-missed FAS…please send our greetings to her and give us an update….it has not been the same @MFSoaps since her departure!!!! Having said that, I can now see where her talent for expression and observation emanates….you rock!!!!! As for the possible Jerry link to Levi, I also proposed that possibility….perhaps he is even his progeny? (Shudder at that thought, but there is truly something inherently evil about Maxie’s new beau….he has charlatan written all over his smarmy smirk.) At any rate, your presence is a delightful addition to the website….always great to have a fellow member of the “La Brigata del Stiletto” with whom to compare notes!!! Please be sure to tell FAS I said “Salve!” Buona giornata!

I tried to like Sabrina…she even reminded me of a nurse i had last summer when i was in the hospital…i kept hoping they would pair her to someone else since Patrina didnt work…now she looks to be having a breakdown…bet you cant wait for that…lol

They had to write her off for her maternity leave…and I think it’s perfectly believable that one so emotionally sensitive as Sabrina would unravel at the loss of her baby. First, she was left at the alter by a man she loves…then their baby dies.

I look forward to her return and I have a feeling they’re going to write her a bit stronger…with Carlos by her side.

@jimh…..Did your nurse have a “magic stethoscope,” too or was it just standard issue??? LOL….Sorry, just had to ask!!!!!

@rebecca1….Yes, I understand they had to get all creative and think of a snappy send-off for Sappy, but quite frankly this whole pregnancy and baby death was extremely gratuitous and unnecessary…for those of us who cannot stand the character, the entire episode came off as campy and comical and for those who have invested in this nurse and her Cinderella fantasy, it was cruel and uncalled for….I think it was particularly insensitive to viewers who had similar real life experiences because the drama was done so poorly and only as a plot point of convenience. I still maintain that after the non-wedding, this character should have been scotched from the canvas….it would have been much more expedient and kinder (in general) than dragging us through this six-month+ exercise in futility.
