General Hospital: Perkie's Observations
Someone really needs to take Lulu aside and explain to her that what she’s doing is wrong. By being so cryptic with Sonny and Luke she’s throwing suspicion on Lucky to Sonny and is likely endangering his life. Lucky's oblivious to it. Her logic doesn’t make any sense. Sonny has been nice to her on occasion, so somehow that makes it okay for her to mess up an ongoing police investigation and put Dante in harm’s way? Can Dante arrest her for something, maybe aiding and abetting?
It's nice to see Jason get some clarity about the whole killing people thing, but I doubt it will stick. What else would he do for Sonny if he wasn’t the enforcer? Would he wait tables in the lovely new restaurant that no one appears to eat at?
I don’t hate the Carly/Jason friendship, but I don’t like when she gets all gushy about what he does and how he’s a good man despite it.
Did Sonny basically just threaten Jax’ life by saying he’s keeping Jax alive because of Carly? If I had any doubts about Jax wanting to take Sonny down, they went away after this episode.
It was nice to see Monica and Edward out of the closet and acknowledging Emily’s death. Although Monica’s visit was more LizNik angst and Edward’s was more Rebecca propping than anything else.
Why does everyone go to Liz to reign in Nikolas? Why would Ethan go to her to get her talk to Nik? I know it was a plot point, but it would have made more sense if Ethan had gone to Alexis or Sam.
Loved the Maxie/Johnny scene even though I hate that she hasn’t told Mac the truth about Sonny and the bloody print. There is still some chemistry between these two. I’m not sure that I want the police commissioner’s daughter with the mob prince, but maybe he’s better than the petulant computer geek.
Where are Scrubs? And Alexis?

Perkie, I think Alexis would be a good go-to person for Ethan, but I'm pretty sure he hasn't met Sam. Have they shared any scenes?
ETA: Just finished watching the episode, so here are my thoughts.
I was pretty bored throughout, until the last two segments.
*Until further notice, I will only refer to HER as "BooLoo," to publicly express my desire to yell "Boo!" at the screen during any scene where she is behaving in a completely UNrootable manner.
*I could get down with Maxie/Lucky 2.0 if it happens as part of the Niz reveal fallout. Maxie would DEFINITELY bring out the sexier side of Lucky. [Of course, my support is contingent on Lucky being sober for this version of their affair, since addicts are SO not hot.]
*What, no Olivia today?!?!? I'm amazed the rest of the characters were able to function without that critical interaction, LOL.

my only thoughts about today's episode is that Jax is so annoying and needs to go on a business trip for a while. i used to like him but he just gets on my nerves now.

I love the maxie johnny dynamic
Jax is the one at sonny's office threatening him and telling him how he should protect his kids. If I really thought Sonny meant it I would maybe have a different perspective but Jax has been dogging sonny's women and running his mouth for years many of them before Carly, and he is still breathing. The difference is Jax is planning on framing him for a crime he knows he didnt commit. And as I said on Friday this will do nothing but hurt Michael. In the end, its not about sonny getting what he deserves but rather about protecting your stepson - or at least it ought to be.
Loved me some Jarly.

Redward scene - forgot to ask, was I the only on that was hoping that given how much Edward kind of knows about what goes on around town, he would say LIKE LIZARD HAS ROOM TO TALK.

Ethan and Alexis have met. She scolded him for teaching Molly, Kristina, and Morgan how to rig a card game during the Spixie non-wedding reception, and then shoo'd him away from Kristina a few times during the same reception.
Personally, I can't wait til they play Ethan a little bit more outside of Rebecca's vortex of suck. It's really dragging the character down. He's great in scenes with Luke, Tracy, Lulu, Lucky, and even Kristina... but damn... how long has Clementine Ford secretly been dressing up as Natalia Livingston? And don't even get me started on this infatuation that Ethan has for her.... it's ridiculous.

Perkie, Jason isn't just Sonny's enforcer. He also runs the day to day business. How often do you see Sonny doing any actual work other than yelling at people in Spanish and planning wars or take overs? I say better late than never for a change of heart or an eye opening. Except that all the spoilers say he and Sonny will be going into an ambush set up by Joey Limbo and he's kills everyone. Sigh....
As for Lulu, this girl has maybe got a bigger mouth than Maxie if that's at all possible. Surely she knows right from wrong even if her father is Luke? Her own brother is a cop and she's putting both his life and Dante's in danger. My daddy always said if you do something wrong or illegal then be willing to pay the consequences if you should get caught. Sonny and Jason know that they will get caught some day and they don't care. They think they're invincible. So I say keep your big mouth shut Lulu and let the chips fall where they may!
Jax and Sonny have been having the same stupid conversation for years and both are still around to talk about it. What Jax is doing will come back to bite him in the butt. By framing Sonny he will force Michael to come forward and then Michael may go to jail along with Jason, Sonny, Sam, Max, Milo and Carly for covering up Claudia's death. He will loose Carly forever then.
I agree with you that Maxie and Johnny do have chemistry but I think they have other plans for Maxie. And both scrubs and Alexis have stories coming up soon according to the spoilers. I read that Sam, Molly and Robin are going to try and match up Alexis and Mac. I like that idea but I'm not sure if Alexis will. It would be nice to see more of Mac. And what happened to that new good looking detective?
The JF storyline is looking creepier and creepier. I hope all the hype turns out to be a really well written storyline!

I LOVED THE JARLY SCENES
It made me cry , Carly was right despite all, Jason did many good things and when she gave him the baby and he had tears in his eyes I had tears in my eyes..
don't forget Jason did a lot for Carly and she remembered that...
Today also showed the reason I love Jason , I don't love that he kills I love that he always tries to do the good things that maybe hard , and help the people that he loves..
I love Jason who decided that he will be the one who takes responsibility in Michael , he don't think he can leave the mob but maybe he can stop be the enforcer, he wants to be
like Sonny the guy in a suit,,,
But maybe it will become something more stronger and he will really change his life...
I see a change in Jason and I can't wait to see it unfolds with Franco coming!
I know people will say why didn't he do that for Jake, and maybe he loves Michael more , maybe it is true, But Jason loves Jake all the times Jake was in trouble Jason saved him, there will say that when he gave him up he put Jake's needs above him, and don't forget Liz asked him first , she didn't give him a chance to say no .....
Jake will need Jason soon and that Jason will step up and be the great father he is ..
ABout the baby I am sorry but when Jason held the baby it was more moving that Jax holding her, and that baby looked more cute when Jason holding her ...
JaxI want him gone , he came to Sonny's office threaten him about SONNY'S KIDS that he won't let him be near them HOW DARE HE IS
He cares more about his girl that sometimes it seems that he loves her as abject ..
if he cared about Michael and Morgan he will net let Sonny be in prison by his own son also let fall down for something Michael did, there is chance that Michael Jason Sam and even Carly will also get prison and that Carly after will kick him in his butttttt
ANd i really want that I want Carly toi leave him and make is life miserable ..
ANd to Morgan and michael to hate him for what he is doing
I am not Sonny's fan but this time I take his side over jax .....
Maxi Ok SaSon will never hurt her !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I do think there is chemistry between her and Lucky JS and JJ can do that ..
Even though I still love Spixie !!
James Franco S/L sounds and looks really really good

I like the Carly/ Jason friendship when it's played as that. Not every scene has to be gushy and sentimental. Can't they just watch a movie together and eat popcorn. Jason could get a job at Blockbuster and get discounts. It would be nice.

Awwww its nice that the goddess of all things annoying is back and in full force, but honestly why would anyone think she would even care about her brother. I mean did she not keep the Jake paternity a secret from her own flesh and blood. So her being so willing to protect a father who was never around, and at best a acquaintance is beyond stupid
Also is this not the same LooLoo that for months on end told Johnny to walk away from that life because it was bad and led no where, but now Sonny is my bestie and I must protect him because he donates money and opens wings in hospital for head trauma. Uhmm LooLoo he would never have opened said wing if he own kid didn't take a bullet in the brain, all because of the MOB
For real Sonny, it's because of Carly - HA! Please you need a step ladder just to look Jax in the eyes, get over yourself.
Jason you truly are pathetic. I don't see Michael as wanting to become an enforcer like you, he wants to be his Dad. So in Michael's mind he can't show weakness for or guilt for killing, but the Narcisist you are Jason believes that if you don't kill Michael will become a normal boy again. Oh please, the damage is done, the tough part is out of the way, and as long as Sonny refuses to change his life for his family then Michael will continue to want to be Mobbed-up. I have no use for Jason, and the women who placate his choice of jobs because underneath it all he has a heart of gold. He kills, I loved Jason in spite of this and in some ways because he did his job with no remorse, now I have a enforcer with feelings. Please Jason do me a favor take some midol and call it a day.
Rembecca thanks for reminding me why I hate you so, snitching to Eddie about Liz hating you, well darling it's best not to start out by trying to fleece people and playing on their emotions.

I admit Lulu is getting on my nerves by wanting to protect Sonny. Yes now I see that she doesn't want her dad to go down with Sonny but before Luke got involved it was all about how Sonny is a family friend. I mean she is not that close to Sonny. Plus she's risking Dante getting caught. If its not her getting Dante almost outed to who he is its Jax. Jax has conversations with Domte all over. He wants Domte to do his thing well maybe let him do it Jax and try not to get him busted.
Loved Luke letting Liz know that he saw her and Nik. Let's just see how she's going to try to get out of this one.
I'm glad that Jason is trying to be less violent. I mean I know it might be a little late but its better late than never. Maybe Michael will come around and see that you don't have to resort to violence. At least Jason cares thats more than I can say for Sonny.
Loved Maxie's chemistry with Johnny and with Lucky.

This is the first time I have come here and want to post a comet, I know this is soap but it gets its base off real life. To think it ok for a parent to only to care or be available to their child is when the child needs and/or is in danger is just ------ and then say he’s a great father. No a father is there all the time like a mother is there all the time not when a child need them. Jake will be three, yes Jake has Lucky but Lucky is a cop and they live dangerous lives people target them and their families. If Jason should start being a father to his son, I don’t care what Liz says or thinks that is his son and he should take care of him. If he could do this for Michael he could have done this for Jake

I don't see Sonny going after Lucky although I know he will think Stupid Shrew-a-Lu is talking about him. Why did the writers mess up Lulu/Dante?
I think it would have been better for Ethan to go to Alexis, especially since Alexis doesn't like Rebecca, if they are planning a Kristina/Ethan type relationship.
I loved Liz attitude toward Rebecca. Yeah they got her acting all lovey dovey like she's Emily but she's still a con who tried to swiddle everyone.
I LOVED Maxie and Johnny. They have chemistry like no one else. They have to nix the Spix soon. Maxie is being wasted. Although in the promo for James Franco, it looks like Maxie will be ripping off his shirt. I would even go for Lucky/Maxie. If JaSam could get back together after death threats, Lucky and Maxie could hook up. Although I love my LnL2 and my Niz.

BigDede, I am with you on the LnL2 and Niz, but because I am torn that TPTB won't have a JJ version of Lucky all happy ever after, I can see Maxie in his universe because she is wasted in Spixie. I would adore a go around between Johnny and Maxie because that was my first choice before JoLivia became FIYAH.
I am also in total agreement about Liz and her attitude towards Rembecca.

I don't think enough can be said about BB and the character Johnny over the past few weeks. When you add Maxi to those scenes, I know that is why I watch GH. Their talk on the pier was the highlight of the show.
I am so tired of Jason and Carly. I sympathize with their worry over Michael but everything is still about them. I think Michael actually called Jason on that last week.
For me, GH has become worth watching again because of characters like BB and JJ again and the character of Michael.
I don't hate the mob story but GH can't really seem to portray the human aspect and human drama of that type of life. It is all hype, all stereotypes and it misses the boat on the true ugliness of it. Jason's internal struggle with it is old, and at this point fast forward moment for me.
Despite this, the show is improving daily and not due to the James Franco hype but rather some good storytelling by GH and good delivery on the part of a number actors.

Dante needs to have Lulu arrested and put into protective custody. Or have Lucky talk to her. As for Jason, glad he finally has a conscience, but really, every time he holds Josslyn, I wonder why it's not Jake he's spending time with.

Hi LL-_Grday
Welcome to DC ...
I agree Jason does need to step up and take responsibility On Jake because cops are also in danger that is thing that I don't like in Jason...
But it also showed how he was putting Jake above his needs
and that was stupid I agree..
I hope the Jason with the Franco and what he going trough will finally take Jake..
Because as much it was amazing seeing him holding Jpsslyn it will be better seeing him holding Jake and telling him about Africa and the world like he did with Michael

I am just mad that this show will show Jason will a new baby girl and all loving but won't let him say or speak or show something about his own flesh and blood son. It all about Micheal. My mother told me you have to fix your home b4 you can try to fix someone else

As I said I hate that Jason doesn't mention Jake he did when he said he won't have family and that was about Jake ....
But in many ways Jason is responsible to Michael he was and for me is his dad ..
and Jason sees him as that .......
He thinks he should fix Michael's problem and that is more than Sonny and Jax .....
Again Jason is not leaving the mob he still thinks he can't so he is still in danger as we say..
So in his mind Jake is still in danger ..
And I agree with you Jason with his conscious should also say I will take care of Michael but it is time for me to take care of Jake because I am his father ....
I agree

caught a few minutes yesterday. i wanted to comment on how they're "de-aging" lulu. not only are they having her return to her "meddling" how will this affect me? person, but they are also dressing her younger. her hair looked like it did a few years ago, not like the person she's become. she will never be a favorite of mine, but i do see that they are going backwards with her and i wonder how much of the physical stuff has to do with jj being back.

i know a lot of people like jason and carly and i get that, but when she put that baby in his arms, it was manipulation, just like when she used michael to push robin out of jason's life. sure it might have been a tender moment, but it was also a "look at everything i get and you don't because of your choices" moment

I have to say this again, one issue with Jason is about setting an example when it comes to violence and the other issue is about safety. Carly's kids are in danger by nature of her relationship with Sonny regardless of what Jason does. If he went to Tibet and became a monk that wouldnt change because as Carly so aptly pointed out, Sonny wont change. Jason staying away from Jake keeps him safe. Lizard can take Jake and run all over town without guards because people dont know they matter to Jason. Jason making changes isnt about making Michael safer, but rather about teaching him different life lessons.
Both Carly and Jason are stuck based on the decisions they made years ago. Really what would everyone have them do and would any of those things really change life.

Blackjack - Preach it
I have resolved to the fact that Jason is a tool but my biggest problem with him in regards to Jake. The point that no one (enemies) knows he is his child is fine and dandy and does keep jake out of the line of fire, BUT in the same respect EVERYONE knows what Michael means to Jason so why is it ok for him to be around him. I mean his enemies would know that hurting Michael hurts Jason, so to me the whole argument that he stays away because of his enemies is redonkulous. You hang around any child, your enemies would pick up on that, and the amount of time he spends with everyone else's kids should make him realize that outside of the Russians no one wants to hurt kids. JMHO

eet - i respect your jarly love, i really do.
i think me not letting go of the past speaks more to my venting at fictional people rather than the real ones i deal with everyday - LOL!
i was glad to hear carly say sonny would never change. and i agree - what else is jason going to do at this point? he's kind of burned all those bridges.
i also agree that jake and michael are separate situations. carly chose the mob for her family, liz didn't (but don't get me started on her or make me have to say something positive about her either - blech.)
in a strange epic, poetic way - if we go with eet's take on things - yesterday's jason/carly scenes were indeed about two people stuck in a prison of their own making trying to console each other. jason wants out, even though at this point it's too late for michael, and carly doesn't want to be there alone. so she conjoled him to stay and not feel so guilty for the decisions they've made.
i still feel like putting jocelyn in his arms was carly's way of telling him he had to keep doing what he does in order to protect yet another of carly's children and to keep carly company. it was a lovely scene, but still manipulative - but that's who carly is and when it comes down to it, jason is that person too. someone who usually does/sacrifices what he wants to make others happy and/keep them safe. at least the writers are being consistant with throughlines and motivations.
i think that's why i like him and sam more this time around. sam isn't asking anything of him, she's not relying on him, and he stays with her because of her - not some sense of responsibility or for a child.
- whew- that was long wasn't it?! much love to all fanbases!

I hate that the writers always turn Lulu into a train wreck when it comes to her 'love life'. This 'Sonny is my friend and a good guy' stuff is ruining her relationship with Dante, and writing that character into a box, IMHO. Often, when that happens, the character 'goes away', and I don't want to lose DZ.
I have wondered lately if that may be one of the reasons TG insisted Ethan be his son - to keep him out of Lulu's clutches. That same writing almost destroyed Johnny's character, and Maxie's smothering has the same effect - Spixie is now a disaster. Bottom line, leave Johnny with Olivia - I don't want BB to go away either. This show needs more women writers 'cause Guza's women, with few exceptions, are totally one dimensional airheads.

Maxie has chemsitry with EVERYONE KS has it good like that. It all depends on how you want her with. i want and will always want her with Spinelli. they gave us that amazing non-wedding and I dont want to see them just end.
Edit-I spoke to soon. Didn't see anything between 10 year old Lucky and maxie!
Lulu is now back to being Shrewlu and Niz is still vile and disgusting!. Those two disgusting idiots get on my dam nerves.
