General Hospital: Perkie's Observations
By Perkie on December 10, 2008
A Sonny/Carly free day. Woohoo!!!
I’m seriously starting to feel bad for Robin. It actually does seem as though the baby stops crying when others are around, but I think that’s because the baby senses that Robin is tense when she’s alone with her and loosens up a little when others show up. It’s pretty common and someone needs to remind Robin of that before she totally loses her mind. Love that they’re using a real baby for Emma (or at least, it looks like a real newborn)
Interesting Alexis/Sam scene. It might have made more sense if it had aired a month ago right after Jerry “died”, because this far removed, I had actually forgotten all about Mr Craig’s demise. Way to follow up with your stories there, show.
I had a hearty laugh when Jax walked into the penthouse and proceed to get rid of Johnny and Shrew-Lu, but I don’t know why the writers insist on putting Jax and Lulu in scenes together because she just comes across as a snide little twit when she snarks at this older, intelligent business man. You know, more of a twit than usual.
Okay, that apartment cannot possibly be the only thing in town for either Lulu or Maxie to move into. Although my first thought was of Kelly’s until Maxie reminded me that the place burned down. Another story we haven’t seen in more than a week, which is shame considering Kelly’s history to the show, but whatever. I’m okay with a Maxie/Lulu roommate thing, as long as it doesn’t turn into half naked Maxie running into half naked Johnny on a regular basis and Lulu getting all jealousy and shrieky. Well, more shrieky than usual.
My first thought on seeing Nik trying to milk that cow was that there was no way that farmers nowadays do the milking by hand. I was glad later on when Nadine mentioned that they do have machines and she was only pulling Nik’s leg. Now that Aunt Raylene has passed, can these two return to Port Charles and proceed to interact with everyone else on the show?

Loved the Maxie/Robin scenes, and the Drake brothers bickering. Matt's starting to grow on me, as long as he leaves Spixie alone!
From Jason and Diane's conversation, I guess Jason is going to pay off Liz? Buying her house, settling money on her, and making it legally look like a bequest from Emily? And then he'll be back w/Sam as if nothing happened.

You said the Sam and Alexis scene was interesting but said nothing about it.....Or was the fact that it took place so long after Jerry's "demise" that made it interesting????
I loved it..........It really makes me wish that Sam could have a storyline with her instead of this Jasam reunion....although the longer it goes on......the more Jasam is sucking me back in...lol....
I really just wish Nik and Nadine would go away.....they bore me to death......
It was pretty average episode otherwise....

I almost forgot Alexis was on the show. I didn't buy one thing Alexis said, she was not playing Jerry, never was. Sorry, but Alexis never believed or choose to ignore what everybody said about Jerry. She can't just tell Sam she was working him. I didn't buy the scene, it just didn't ring right with me.
ShrewLu and Johnny are just so blah, I can't get into them. Give Mac that screen time, please.
Not to bad of a show today. Poor Robin. It's realistic though. My friend is the oldest of eight kids, she's been taking care of babies all her life basically. The minute she had one for herself, totaly lost, calling her mother and me every hour. That's the most realistic storyline that GH has run in awhile. Also, Kimberly M. is rocking this story, hats off to her. I can totaly relate to what I'm seeing on screen with Robin and Emma.

Loved the Alexis and sam talk.
Maxie was funny as always, loved that Jax kicked Lulu and Johnny out. No Liz, that's always a good thing.
and how could I forget...Jason Morgan (SB) looked stunning in blue today.

Ah, I wasn't buying what Alexis was selling. Yeah, she was playing Jerry all right. She was playing him on her back. I guess that is where Sam gets it. She comes by her skills genetically. Whatever!! I guess they decided to just rewrite the last six months. It has been at least six months, hasn't it? Alexis has been hanging out and sleeping with Jerry for quite a bit. I wonder if all District Attorneys sleep with suspects. Alexis is so dedicated to her job. She should get an award.
Sam was looking kind of odd. I was trying to figure out if they put so much make-up on her to make it look like she was trying to cover the cuts she had yesterday. Cause, they were gone today. Jason had his. Sam just had an extra thick layer of make-up today.
I liked Nadine today. She is fine when they play down the quirk. I like her and Nik together.
Robin and Emma will be fine. It really brought back the experience of having the newborn around the first time. It is overwhelming to find yourself responsible for this little tiny person. I don't care how old you are or how prepared you think you are. It is normal to second guess yourself. Robin brings it all back. I have to say that my little pumpkinhead still manages to freak me out and she is an adult now. Still lovin Robin!!!
I loved seeing Diane and loved her telling Jason to sit down and not shoot anyone.

So, Aunt Raylene died finally? I had no idea since I hit FF the moment I saw Nik near a cow -lol! I really can't stand Nadine and I am begging and pleading for some Nadine free scenes with Nik so I can actually watch him!
