Catching Up

This GH fan is working outside the home and is struggling to be able to catch up on updating this GH spoiler blog. Although I dvr the daily episodes, watching them is another issue.

I am a fan- don't get me wrong BUT some of the storylines lately annoy me so much it is hard to watch and not fast forward through most of it.

This whole "reality" show storyline with Kristina and Trey is annoying. Okay, we get it. Kristina is humiliated by her peers and is angry with her parents. The idea that either Alexis or Sonny would put up with being a part of a reality show is outrageous and totally out of character.

The Maxi/Matt relationship has been doomed for a long time and although it is nice that we finally know the identity of Lisa's killer, having Maxi hold on and wait for Matt is stupid.

Lulu is a file clerk. Why she would be a part of a briefing with the PCPD is beyond me. I love Anna as the new commissioner BUT what does this mean for Mac?? It seems aside from trying to give him a romance with Alexis and that roll in the hay with Diane, Mac was only used as the commissioner. Will he fade into oblivion like Edward and Monica???

The writers are making use of their OLTL characters with weaving Todd and Starr into the newer storylines. It could be good but it could also be bad. Do we need a Michael/Starr romance? They have set it up for them to be star-crossed lovers but the idea that Michael would easily forgive Starr is out of character.

The formerly smart Carly Jax forgiving Johnny is going to prove to be a big let-down in the future as Johnny is haunted by what he has done. How long will it take for Carly (and everyone else) to put together the pieces and figure out what Johnny is responsible for.

Will Johnny be exiting Port CHarles??? I sure hope not. He is one of my favorites characters but he has become so dark and I cannot see how he can come back from that.

Kate's revelations about her rape and baby (I never do get how these women FORGET giving birth) will probably result in her son being found. Sonny is standing by her but I don't see this becoming a long-term romance.

Where is Steve???????

Heather is able to steal dead bodies, dispose of them, switch newborns and make threats all over town but where is STEVE!!!!!????????????!!!!!!!!

What she won't do for Luke and has done shows how sick she is. Now she has silenced Luke (for now) but where and when will it end???

Sam and Spinelli just might come up with the truth about Sam and Tea's babies now that they have teamed up to investigate Heather for Olivia. Olivia's street smarts might have helped save many in PC.

I love that Elizabeth is finally being rewarded with a new romance. I like her and Ewen together and the friendship she has with Jason. I miss Lucky but instead of Elizabeth going back to Jason, having her explore a new relationship is nice. Ewen is likeable with just enough mystery to keep him interesting.

The character of Todd Manning is totally outrageous but likeable as any OLTL fan will agree. Bringing him to PC and mixing his life with Sonny's was odd but with him purchasing Kate's magazine it should get interesting.

As I have said before although I am a huge Sonny fan, moving away from mob-themed stories will be good for ratings.

So this weekend I will be spending a lot of time catching up on the GH I missed during the week. I promise to not fast forward through the annoying intereactions between Felicia and Mac and report on ALL the happenings in Port Charles.

Let me know what you like or don't like.
