midweek drive-by post

[gwynnega]

Weather: Colder than I'd expected. Even though it was in the forecast, I didn't believe it.

Chapter 13 of the Jo book: Still not done, though it won't be long now.

The Garage Kitty: was thrown for a loop yesterday when another cat started meowing from the nearby hillside.

Ryan's Hope: awesome.

OLTL: mostly awesome.

Y&R: ditto.

GH: Incredibly bad. Plus they've changed the lighting, and yesterday Sonny was as orange as his sofa. Also Ric managed to grow a goatee in one day. (Also, why has no one noticed that Lisa LoCicero looks just like Jackie Zeman? They missed a bet not making her a Spencer.) Why am I still watching this show? Well, I was happy to see Helena Cassadine, anyway.

[hugs hugs for your list]

Yes, Constance Towers, mwahahaing up a storm! I do love her. :-)

But Sonny was so ORANGE.

::hugs::

I am rooting for that pesky chapter 13! And looking forward to eventually readin git.

Agree re: RH.

Chapter 13 is pesky, all right! But it's getting there...

I was stoopidly chuckling when Helena showed up, that *finally* something somewhat exciting might happen. Unfortunately, it has to do with the ridiculous fauxEmily. And, at least the Spinnelli/Maxie scenes were good, although I'm tired of the same old stories being churned out so rapidly.

I just want to scream - Stupid Orange Sonny! How can you not even give Rick some credit?

As to Lisa? Well, maybe they only wanted to add another Spencer son into the works. That's got to be what they are doing, right?

ARRGH. Yes! Why are we still watching??

And, I'm SO glad I'm watching GL. I'd forgotten how delicious excellent daytime acting can be. Seriously; it's taking the other shows to wipe the bad Guza taste out of my brain...

The Spinelli/Maxie scenes were good, but I feel so jerked around by that storyline. The writers need to commit to Spinelli/Maxie, instead of half-assing it with Maxie/Johnny, Maxie/Matt, and Maxie/any guy who happens to be around. Sheesh! I could deal with an actual triangle if they'd write it properly, but this is so obviously "oh, we don't want to piss off Focus Group X, Y or Z."

Stupid Orange Sonny! How can you have credibility when you blend in with your sofa?! :-)

If Ethan is actually Luke's son, they should quit with the Ethan/Lulu flirtation, because ick.

I saw Olivia's confession to Natalia at the cemetery on Youtube, and it was awesome!!

My current favorite couple on a soap is Katherine/Murphy on Y&R (Murphy's played by the Nick Szabo actor!). They are so adorable. Y&R is on fire at the moment.

I agree with you 100% about Spinelli/Maxie. I'm not sure why they think Bradford is better served as the geeky, comedic pining boy. It's getting to the point where I don't even know how much longer I can stick around to get glimpses of the acting I wish I were seeing...

You should definitely watch both graveyard scenes from Tuesday & Wednesday if you haven't already. Poor Olivia. Natalia's been walking around in a depressive funk and everyone else has noticed but poor, clueless Frank.

AND, OMG it just dawned on me that Buzz is Bucky...

Yesterday's GH was SO painful to watch. I don't know what Kimberly McCullough did to Bob Guza to make him subject her to this horrible PPD storyline. "Robin, can you consult on a case?" "You're just asking me because I have post-partum depression!" "Robin, can you loan me a dollar?" "You just want to make me feel useful because I have post-partum depression!"

Oh, I thought you knew Buzz was Bucky! I first knew Justin Deas as Buzz, during the Buzz/Jenna romance on GL (mid-90s or so?). Then when I first saw RH, I was all "OMG is that Justin Deas? He's a BABY!"

I didn't, LOL!

the clue train passed me by because i was too busy watching Otalia clips via YouTube on my iphone at the station, lol.

I know you told me, before, where he'd gone...but I forgot. So, the other day, I'm watching a scene in the Cooper house, and swear I see a picture of Bucky on the mantle behind Frank and Buzz. In my huge fit of clever, I went to Wikipedia and discovered the truth. I think if his hair weren't so dark I might have noticed sooner - but that the picture on the mantle is so much younger and blonder, it totally threw me. ha ha ha

I'm two days behind on GH because GL airs at the same time and now I'm soapnetting GH, lol. And, it's not the show I race home to watch, which just frustrates me that I CAN'T STOP.

I've never even had soap icons, before, and now I have TWO.

Heeee!

I'm really tempted to quit watching GH right now. It's such a CHORE.

That is a great icon!
