I don't know about you but May sweeps were a disappointment to this long-time GH viewer. Again we were teased that Jake's identity would be revealed but it was only revealed to a pathetic Elizabeth who then decided to keep it to herself.
I guess Elizabeth cannot see how her keeping Jason's true identity a secret will someday backfire on her.
Hayden was about to (possibly) reveal the truth to Jake and Sam but was hit by a bullet that everyone thinks was meant for Jake but the shooter was a hitman hired by Nicolas who needed to silence her.
Carly continued to show her support and friendship to Jake even though Sonny was not happy at all.
In a strange twist of events, Nina and Rick (of all people) married after meeting in a bar. Don't quite get the point of this hook-up but we will see.
A mysterious woman who resembles Ava comes to town and is promptly arrested. Another disappointment was Ava's death assisted by Silas who has not been around much. Also missing is baby Avery who was found in Silas and Kiki's apartment and returned to Michael?
Olivia gave birth to Julian's son and then she and Ned with the help of Dr. Obrecht managed to sneak the premature baby out of town while everyone mourned the baby's "death".
Shawn got arrested for shooting Hayden and it was (finally) revealed that Jordan is an undercover cop much to Shawn and TJ's disgust and anger. When Shawn told Jordan he wouldn't turn on Sonny, Jordan confessed that TJ is really his son. Shawn (like the rest of us) has a hard time believing that "truth" after all the lies she has told.
General Hospital has been having some trouble finishing storylines in a timely manner and instead drags on with stories that don't hold our interest. Then things are quickly wrapped up without us seeing it happen.
The death of Duke was a devastating loss and Anna's actions afterwards were so out of character. After all the torture and pain Faison caused Anna and her loved ones for years she didn't shoot him but she put Carlos full of holes for shooting Duke even though it was Julian who was behind the hit.
The writers are slowly killing characters like Anna by making them behave in uncharacteristic manners. I will miss Duke even though in his last visit to Port Charles the writers barely touched on why we loved Duke Lavery.
During May sweeps it was announced that Anthony Geary is leaving the role of Luke Spencer. I am sad to see Luke go but the way the writing has been on GH he probably made the right choice. Right now Luke is off after the "big reveal" that it was he who accidentally killed his mother and purposely killed his father. It was a powerful episode that was recently repeated on Memorial Day but the story pretty much set Luke up for a permanent exit.
Too bad. I love the pairing of Tracy and Luke and it feels like she won't ever have another sparring partner like him. Word is that Genie Francis will be returning as Laura and unless they write her a good story it will be a waste of another old character.
Fans want to see Jason remember who he is and maybe have a reunion with his wife and his son that he doesn't even know is his. Of course it will be complicated now that Sam has moved on with Patrick but hey, soaps need drama, right?
The darkness of Nicolas is welcome. He is a Cassadine after all and it is nice to see him explore the dark side. GH needs to bring Lucky back. Jonathan Jackson has moved on with his career and that is great but certainly they can find someone who can play Lucky Spencer.
Fans have accepted the re-casts of many popular characters like Lulu and Jason why not Lucky?
What are your thoughts on May sweeps and what is your biggest disappointment to date?
