#juelxis , #siam and everything I love was in this episode. Total win 10/1 #GH recap

Do you think +General Hospital still follows the old "Nov Sweeps" gimmick? Because ladies and gents, I don't know if I am going to make it without throwing something at the TV when Jules lies (kinda) again. But damn if he didn't look good in the sunlight......

on a scale of 1 - even i just CAN'T

I digress... 

Ok so he didn't lie... sort of. Oh the gray area that is #GH ethics these days, also #julexis 09/30 recap

I'm back! And I think it's time we had a +General Hospital intervention. Some might say the show has been lacking in depth etc, but I am not talking about that - because it's a soap and my expectations are not THAT high. I know what I am getting into everyday at 2 (or you know whenever I come home), and I have enjoyed the ups and downs since '96 so there isn't much that will scare me away. HOWEVER, can we all agree that perhaps, just maybe, certain characters need to jump off the broken record just for a few days so I don't want to throw something at my TV? No, I'm not talking about Carly. Don't get mad... because the person I'm talking about is...

I am however less irritated at him when he is shirtless.... 

let me explain - 

So today is just tweets, but baby TOMORROW WE ARE BACK (like #julexis spray tan time) #GH 9/29/14

The cable tv god saw fit to not record +General Hospital yesterday so I had to watch.. WITH COMMERCIALS. It was awful. As such I had no time left to actually blog. So today is just tweets, but baby TOMORROW WE ARE BACK (like #julexis spray tan time) 

It's 1145PM and 88 degrees outside. In other words, way hotter than those #Samtrick scenes #GH 9/16

heat... +Los Angeles Dodgers game, +The Mindy Project ... it's too much to take, full blogs COMING SOON

NOT SO LIVE TWEETS

• Ooo we get to see the #Naxie kiss 2x?? YES. I support this kind of replay
• So much action in the first act. PC HEAT is such a good show. 
• That poor bad guy suit. First he gets played by Sam, and then punched by Jason. He can't win
• The thing is... I didn't need to see this Samtrick scene again. It's not that it makes me angry... I try not to actually care... it just makes me sad. I miss #SIAM
• Don't worry Lulu, Dante is the hero of this show 
• Wow... right there and they just let the door close... Skills. Anna must have trained them.
• Mikey, why are you practicing in the house where there is a perfectly good boxing set?
• I'm just saying if Nate said he had feelings for me, and then kissed me like that there would be ZERO CONFUSION
• OH SNAP. Quick, creamate the man or he'll just come back! 
  
• Self Control. way to go Sam. Stay with those thoughts.
• Wow Jason's shoulders have certainly narrowed.
• Sexiest gun lesson EVER. Where do I sign up??? #WaitListed
• So you didn't check the layout of this place before you stormed it?? Right... okayyyy
• Damnit, still alive. Ain't that always the way?
• Sorry Patrick, a woman being there doesn't automatically create a makeout reason, there shoud be you know... feelings... and chemistry
• Ok, for this I will allow another Robin visit. 
• STOP. WHO IS HIS FATHER??? #SECRETS
• Guys, now is not the time to be adorable.... I mean you are.... but it's just not the time.
• Jason is now being played by a mime. So there's that....
• Thank you for be willing to be independent Sam. You're stronger than that.
• Silent Jason is so weird. why didn't they just cast the role sooner?
• Michael and Tracy talk about things is almost as pointless, but less entertaining than Mike & Tom Eat Snacks
• Can we put this Samtrick stuff to the side, and then let it fall behind the dresser forever?
• Ok guys, DON'T SCREW THIS UP. #CREMATION
•  The "destruct sequence" sounds dangerous. Too bad most of the people are contract and will survive. Ruins the surprise

PREVIEWS

Patrick kisses and tells (to Liz), so does Sam (but to Alexis), the return of Prince Adorable in Pjs, PC Heat is back in action and on a timer, and Jason's hurt again?

It was 24 epis before we got 5 minutes of #Julexis , but something is better than nothing - #GH recap 09/10/14

This episode is just what I needed to fully feel the GH blogging mojo. It had almost everything I could ask for. But hey 5 out of 6 storylines ain't bad. Besides, there was not only 2 seconds of #Julexis, but there was #PapaJulian!!! I spent most of the episode swooning after one thing or another. POINTS to the writers on this one. Also have you noticed as the summer storylines wrap up the demise of Fluke will affect so many couples and families across town? I CANNOT WAIT. Then they can get back to other drama because this Fluke thing is STRESSFUL.

Look I can show you on my phone all the tweets about us, we even have AN ARMY #julexisarmy

The women in this town have WAY more self control than I would #GH recap 09/9/14

Another fine day of +General Hospital programming, another blog post. The end of summer story wraps keep chugging along, but I wonder if it's just a tease and we're going to get crap the rest of the week.... at least there is a Julexis tease for tomorrow. That's just going to have to get me through whatever filler stories spring up. Plus we're back on track villain wise. Cassadines - the gift that keeps on giving. Now if only we can get the supreme baddie back....

No redeeming qualities, no over the top crazy - just pure evil with too much money

The people in this town really need to be LESS trusting - 9/8/14 #GH recap (aka PC HEAT episode 5) @generalhospital

*cracks knuckles* Phew! It's been awhile... let's see if I still remember how to do this.... It's been awhile since I posted but it was just in time! So many summer storylines gearing up for their final turn around the bend! ( I hope) . I know what I am dreaming for to happen with certain storylines, but to be honest I hope the focus on Nate and Dante doing their thannnng doesn't go away. I mean they're cops.... so it shouldn't, but let's be honest....

That's right PC HEAT also stars 2 BAMF LADIES - Episode 4 - No Time To Cry ... oh and #GH 08/25 recap

It's a new week ladies and gents, and as the summer winds down I have (half) full faith in the writers for the end of the summer story wrap up. Wait, they are going to wrap some of these stories up right? It's another action packed episode of PC HEAT and, of course +General Hospital , on this fine Monday. Are you on the edge of your seats?

"RECKONING"

Since #julexis was technically on the episode but didn't actually share the screen I tweeted but didn't blog, that's ok right? #GH 08/21

We shall return to regularly scheduling blogging tomorrow. Business trips are total time sucks. Until then we still have not so live tweeting! Now if you'll excuse me I've got to get back to my best friend Wally...

@princessdeleon you're too funny. But I appreciate the compliment.

I wasn't a huge fan of Monday or Tuesday's #GH but hey PC Heat Ep3 Film Noir - WORTH IT. 08/19/2014

This is a truncated post, because I'm annoyed with Carly. I know. I rooted for them.. but not like that. But hey PC Heat Ep 3 as a Film Noir? that I can get behind. 

Just imagine the noir type music in your head

Episode 2 of PC HEAT was SO GOOD, & @generalhospital wasn't that bad either 8/14/14 #GH RECAP

I think the +General Hospital writers have hit their sweet spot. If we're not going to be spoiled teased with Julexis I am totally cool with this new trend in the perfect blend of cheesy goodness. Not to mention the Dante Falconari spin off "PC HEAT" is getting SO GOOD. Shootings! Bad guys! Romantic revenge! I am not ready for stupid characters to come back (Shawn/Anna/Robin), must they? The show is just so much better without them!

JUST GIVE THEM THEIR OWN SHOW!! #alltheratings

.@generalhospital has already had a spinoff so it's not a leap... I would totally watch a cop show staring @dom_zamprogna - 8/13 recap #GH

I have to say I am a little disappointed there was no hour long West montage, but I honestly really enjoyed today's episode. It was pure soap fun. It's been a long time where we didn't cross the line from "soapy cheese goodness" to "good god what are they doing to my show with this nonsense" don't you think? Plus I have an idea for pilot season next year! I haven't worked out the title yet, but as you can see below I am starting on the theme song. That show will center around the awesomeness that is Dante Falconari (@dom_zamprogna)  and how he is a kick ass detective with a super hot best friend (see I am looking out for my best friend Ryan's employment here). What about you guys, you in?

Don't lie, you are SO IN (more below)

I almost didn't like this epi - but I'm a sucker for a musical montage of Nathan.... @generalhospital 8/12/14 recap #GH

this episode totally deserve a full post so... 

PREVIEWS

Liv and Sonny talk, Carly and Lucas talk (and I drool because he looks so much better with short tousled hair), fun in the locker room, Nic magically generates facial hair and a haircut ( and he looks SO FINE), and the conclusion of the wedding (which hopefully will be my heros crashing BEFORE they say I do....)

NOT SO LIVE TWEETS 

• ya ya ya recaps... WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THE GUYS?? #fightfightfight
• How do you choose Levi over that smolder? #badlifechoices
• I feel like it shouldn't be that easy to open a cryogenic chamber. Also, shouldn't his arm be really cold?
• wait WHAT IS HAPPENING??? He's not Australian? I KNEW I COULDN'T HATE AN AUSTRALIAN!!! #perfection !
• Hear that #Samtrick fans? She told him he was a FRIEND , nothing more ya hear! #FRIENDZONE
• Awww heyyyy Lucy!!! 
• I have a hard time believing that hippie (fake or not) could get that many hits in on West, who is literally always exercising. 
• It more than "sucks" that it's over SAM. We are still holding out hope for #SIAM!
• Perhaps the paddles are just defrosting him?
• Oh Viktor, if only were right - this storyline needs to be OVER
• Ugh I am soooo over Maxie right now. 
• You guys think this agent is legit? I watch a lot of +The Following so I know not to trust anyone ... ever.
• NOOOOOOOO my best friend Ryan!!! Fake blood and everything!!! Quick Dante! Helllllp!!!
• Sorry Sam, I super don't care about this lead up to fake Jason or whatever... I mean the prop guys haven't even changed the pictures yet! So... we're still pretty far off ya?
• Don't try to talk or move - because you haven't been cast yet (as of the  filming of this) so...
• (SIDE NOTE) OOOO commercials for +Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. have started!! Yesssssssss  
• Do you think Mac and Dante will take turns beating the living daylights out of Levi? Or will they let Nate have all the fun?
• YAYYY Nathan montage!!! Can we have this every day? Although I am surprised there are so many scenes with him with shirts on...
• Is it weird that I think it's funny that "Jason" will be brainwashed again, to be a hired killer for someone else? (that is where this is going right?)
• I wonder if I would have liked ZJG more if he wasn't such an assynying character? I mean he's probably really nice...
• That's right Lucy read. Read a lot. Take up time so Dante can save my best friend Ryan P!

It's possible the @generalhospital writers knew I was annoyed w/ #julexis from TH & gave me West catching Levi as a gift 8/11 recap #GH

That's right, I'm still not happy about how #Julexis ended on Thursday. I don't think any of us should be. Alexis is an amazingly smart and strong woman. You're telling me that he still refuses to tell her the whole truth and she still sleeps with him? Worse, while it happens she looks helpless? Nope. Sorry. I love #Julexis , I believe that Jules is her true love, and I would be dead inside to not love #julexis heat - but I am not ok with that. The Alexis I have been watching since the 90s might have succumbed to a kiss ( a hot steamy one of course) but as she has with Julian before, she would have been strong and pulled away. If anything giving Jules the more reason to tell her EVERYTHING. I think we can all agree Jules has grown A LOT since his arrival in this harbor side town. I even agree that Alexis should accept him for who he is, a mob man, at least at this point. However, he could have told her everything to show that yes he is still a mob man, he is doing it for her and his family. I think she would take the mob nonsense as a trade off if he told her everything... I am not afraid that this won't be resolved soon because HELLO they finally put them together on the +General Hospital opening credits, but that doesn't mean I can't vent to you instead of apologizing I haven't blogged in forever right?

Don't give me a title card and then play break up - I'm not DUMB.

Oh well as a reward I got two whole days of slightly less serious storylines, and they managed to pull them off without being so silly I can't handle it - yes I am even going with the Aztec storyline at the moment because it means bad things for Levi (happy dancing!)

Hi, I'm here to return 4 Jordan/Shawn scenes in exchange for more #julexis - thanks #GH 8/6/14 #julexisanniversary

I waited all day for this.... and there was like 5 minutes. Why is this a trend? Let's go ahead and break that shall we? Like tomorrow - when we get sexytime can it be more than 3 scenes? perhaps at least 25% of the episode? Puh-lease? I mean the rest of today was good, but it could have been so much more! I will be counting down the minutes til tomorrow's episode starting NOW.

If you look up "passion" in the dictionary after tomorrow, I think you'll find these scenes. #JulexisAnniversary pic.twitter.com/vfsPJ4Ve2h

On to that other stuff...

I think it's time we had an intervention with the writers RE: Sam/Silas/Patrick... #GH recap 7/21

Guys... I think before we discuss today's episode we need to take a little time out and discuss something very important. Well... as important as things can get when you are reading a blog about a soap. Anyhow, it is plain to see that the writers have begun to rapidly disolve the the relationship between Sam and Silas (more summary on that below) and per +Angela Rynan there are people out there that support this complete 180 in story telling because they are mad at Michael Easton's character(s) breaking up Sam/Jason.... WHAT?? Apparently the reasoning is that Sam/Jas were the "orig" couple etc etc. Let me just say ... STOP THAT. It's silly to hate on a budding soap relationship because the character was with someone else before, especially when that person IS DEAD(ish). What drives soap stories is the chemistry between characters! Michael Easton and Kelly Monaco ooze chemistry. Hell even their characters (up until 2 weeks ago) couldn't get enough of each other. Not to mention if we're really going to get into hating people for breaking up the OG relatioships you should really all hate Sam, because  Jason was first with Robin. For that matter you should hate Patrick for breaking up Jason/Robin. We could go WAAAY back and say that Carly is also the worst because she broke up Jason and Robin. Or perhaps you don't like #Julexis because Julian is breaking up the idea of Ned/Alexis? Do you see where I am going here? Hopefully the writers do and stop this nonsense of derailing #SIAM like a speeding train. Especially since they spent so much time building them up! But you know who really loses here? DANNY. That boy can never win... just lost Rafe, now on the verge of losing his sort of dad... RUDE! Ok rant over, Now on to talking that other thorn in my side... Ron Carlavati

Silas is NOT AMUSED. And neither am I....

Anna/Olbrecht call Silas a bad parent, Maxie clowns on Nathan about his job - It's hypocrite day in PC! 07/18 #GH recap

Let's all hope that after this Friday episode and that slow week last week things are going to ramp up for our #julexis storylines this week. If you haven't read their TV guide article yet you totally should. Let's take a moment and celebrate the year anniversary that this man first came in to our #GH lives:

Props to the cast for their awesome job at saying goodbye to Rafe, now let's say goodbye to NINA #GH recap 7/16

I guess it was silly of me to think that there wouldn't be an emotional goodbye for Rafe so soon. I guess I was just distracted by #zombieRafe and I didn't a lot of mourning last week. Nevertheless, today we had our emotional goodbye and once again I was a wreck. Let's take another moment of silence for Rafe Kovich Jr. and then we'll get into yesterday's epi.

                                         

RIP Rafe Kovich Jr #VAMPIRE HUNTER

I really am going to miss @jimmydee14 but @RyanPaevey is here to tell boring stories with his dreamy eyes - so #TRADEoff #GH recap 7/10/14

Before we get to the recap, let's take a moment of silence for my favorite teen #thuglife . He started off as a remnant of a show past, with a history in the mythological nonsense that did that show in. Such an angelic face, but it made sense because his "father" was an angel. He lost many adults in his life - some to Vampires, some to the horrible (and yet Emmy nominated) writers of Prospect Park's OLTL. Yet, until Teresa Castillo got pregnant and needed a reason to leave, he was a sweet boy with a big heart who was a little lost. He found a new family in Silas, Sam and Danny boy and we can only hope that those two will stay together and then have a baby and name him Rafe. 

#RIP Rafe Kovich Jr. (found on http://z13.invisionfree.com/Rafe_Molly)

This #Julexis reunion is full of #ALLTHEFEELS and is the best thing this month - #GH recap 7/9/14

Yesterday the previews got my hopes up for today, and while +The Chew peeps said their daily goodbyes I wondered to myself if the previews would let me down. I was more than pleasantly surprised that not only did the previews not let me down, but today's episode was all we wanted and more!

What we wanted!
