Only in Port Charles can a brain damaged hitman negotiate with the police commissioner over the release of his equally brain damaged nephew from lockup. Of course, you have to add in the Good Doctor, Robin Scorpio for good measure. Oddly enough, I semi-like Robin now. I think it’s because she’s mellowed out and she’s [...]

Ladies and Gentlemen, if a car crashes in the woods and Jason isn’t around to save anyone…did it really happen? My God, how long (and filled with gratuitously-bad CGI) was that car sequence? And why does Port Charles, NY look suspiciously look like Laurel Canyon? There are so many things that I don’t understand about [...]
Lansing out!
Posted in General Hospital on June 28, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Seriously, what the hell was that? I had read that Ric Lansing’s exit would be anti-climactic, but that was just 10,000 kinds of wrong. Did he even say goodbye to Molly? Wait, did they even bother to recast Molly? Why do I even care? This is just the Jason show, complete with the Scrappy to [...]
Blame it on the Stairs!

Yay for new sets! The Stairs strike again! And not once, but twice! Seriously, why is there a fancy catwalk and stairs right in the middle of the hospital lobby? For babies and the woman who carry them to fall down on, I guess. Remarkably enough, Carly and her baby are fine. Why wouldn’t they [...]
He’s alive! Michael’s alive!

To no one’s shock: Michael is awake. Even less shocking: he’s surlier than ever! Maybe I’m drunk from watching The Bachelorette, but I was slightly touched by Sonny’s reaction upon seeing Michael. I think it’s moments like these that allow me to remember that back in the day, Sonny was actually a viable character and not just [...]
For the love of Michael

Is everyone on pins and needles like I am wondering if Michael Corinthos III is going to wake up? I’m guessing (SARCASM) that he will since they recast the actor. Because if he was going to stay in a coma, I’m sure we’d be treated to a random extra’s legs under a blanket for the [...]
Lucky and Liz, Take 47
Posted in General Hospital on May 5, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Without any fanfare or buildup whatsoever, Lucky and Liz are back together. I actually thought they were going to make up after General Hospital exploded, but we were dealt the deathblow of Rebecca, her mascara, and her unfortunate, ever-blonder hair. Of course, tequila makes Lucky’s clothes come off and after his inability to seal the [...]
Stairs: The real silent killer
Posted in General Hospital on April 25, 2009 | 2 Comments »
So the new and improved General Hospital Stairs have claimed their first victim: Emma’s stroller. Honestly, as soon as I saw a stairwell prominently featured in the middle of the triage area, I knew we’d be in business. I just didn’t realize it would be in the span of a week and a half. But [...]
Why is it so hard to take a pregnancy test?
Posted in General Hospital, What the... on April 19, 2009 | 1 Comment »
How many days has it been now that we’ve watched Carly ponder taking a pregnancy test? I get that she doesn’t want bad news but I was afraid we’d be stuck watching her trod along with a baby bump, still wondering what she should do. Then there’s Claudia…you know for being a mafia princess, she’s [...]
High Definition Hospital
Posted in General Hospital, The Horror on April 14, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
My eyes! For years we’ve been warned that High Definition is unkind…to actors, news anchors, reality show contestants, etc. Now, in the most misguided soap opera decision this side of killing off Frankie Frame, General Hospital is now in HD. It’s a whole new world: apparently everyone got dye jobs and it’s so bright, it [...]
