The Good, Bad, and Ugly

THE GOOD |
Well what can I say ? The "Nurses Ball" was one of the best since it started eight years ago in my humble opinion. I have to admit I liked every single act. My favorite one of course was Luke's rendition of "Old time rock and roll". Granted it would have been ten times better if the Flea hadn't been his partner but I just tried to ignore her and concentrate on him. He was fantastic, it didn't matter that he couldn't sing it was his delivery and the man “still can dance.” I liked the variety from the men’s hilarious rendition of the "Shoop Shoop " song to Dara's poignant "Over the Rainbow" The ball got a "thumbs up" in my book.
Although the "shower scene" was predictable it was still funny. As I said before I am beginning to like Gia more and more, especially anytime she can stick it to Slizbeth. Offering to strip in front of Lucky really got to Liz and of course the cold shower trick was just the icing on the cake. “Gia: Well, I learned a beauty tip at a photo shoot the other day. Gia: Cold water. It works wonders on the complexion”
I mean most people test the water before they just step into it, but not dumb ass Liz, so as far as I'm concerned she got what she deserved.
Carly and Angelporn literally running into one another, and the "Carlybitch mode" kicking in immediately. Never mind that she doesn't have a driver's license, and that it was her fault, in typical Carly fashion she ran all over Angel. Yes granted (for you scant Angel fans) she got in a few barbs but she was no match and Carly managed to get in the last word. "Carly: Oh, "angel Ellis, 57 lake road." Well, that explains it. You live in the woods where there aren't any people. No one to smash into. Angel: I prefer it. Fewer people make for fewer unpleasant encounters. And, for the record, ms. Corinthos hit me, not the other way around. Angel: Well, my insurance company will be in touch. I hope your day gets better. Carly: Already is, now that you're leaving" You go girl!
I'm so glad that Ned is finally coming home. When AJ called and left the message about Em being in an accident I loved when he said "Emily needs you Ned, we all need you" there's the side of AJ that I like to see.
Finally, Carly admitting to Melissa, (and I'm torn on this one) that she betrayed Sonny and this whole thing is her fault. It had to be horrendous for her to realize that she alone was responsible for everything that happened to him. Part of me wishes she could have confided to Bobby about all this but the bitchy side of me was glad that she confided in Boobie's nemesis how ironic.

THE BAD |
I just lost it. Of course the end when she was standing out in the rain and he was looking down at her and they both held their hands up towards one another that was beyond awesome. That scene is etched in my memory forever .As far as I am concerned this just says it all: ”Luke: Most people don't get anywhere near what we had. Laura: I guess that's true, isn't it? We were the penultimate. Laura: We were blessed. We were golden. For 20 years.” I detest that you did this to them Jill, and the saying “What goes around comes around” is meant for you. Like I said in last week’s review I have faith, that they will be together again and I believe this with my whole heart and soul.
If there was a dictionary with pictures besides the words “bitch”, “witch” and all around screw-up guess who’s picture we would see.
That’s right Jill, front and center. Emily has been thru so much this past year so far and last and it looked like things were starting to work out for her and Zander. But noooooo you couldn’t leave well enough alone. You had to once more rewrite again the worn and boring “Sorel goes after Zander/To get back at Sonny/Emily suffers the results, storyline. Can’t you ever leave things alone just once? Not only boring but very reminiscent of the train wreck/Nora in a coma/ storyline on OLTL. Oh yeah that’s right you used to be EP on that show and they just liked you so much they let you go. It’s amazing how that show has improved since you’ve been gone. But that’s just a coincidence right?
Hey if you get a chance Jilly why don’t you go on some of the msg. boards and see how the fans really feel about this latest Sonny/Angelporn storyline. They hate it, they hate her and they hate what you are doing to Sonny. Oh but wait a minute I just remembered you don’t care what the fans think you just keep on doing what you want to do, no matter how much it sucks. I guess you haven’t noticed that she can’t act her way out of a paper bag, her character’s personality is like a paper bag and her wardrobe stinks. What’s up with all the white? Are we trying to be symbolic here Jill? Well I'll let you in on a little secret, it’ssssssssss nottttt workingggggggggggggg!!!!!!!. As much as I’d like to believe she won’t be around that long, whatever is she going to do after Labor Day?

THE UGLY |
I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE
Hmmmm looks like Hells plan to resurrect her darling son and control his every move may not be working out. He seems to have his own agenda and anyone who gets in his way, including Mommie dearest will regret it...Helena: Oh, you don't want to hurt me, Stavros. Stavros: If not for you, I'd have Laura. You cost me my life. “Helena: You need to have patience. Stavros: I don't need to do anything. Helena: Bio-toxin looks so innocent. We only have to wait for the perfect -- Stavros: I wait for nothing and no one. Stavros: Stop trying to turn me against Laura! I told you she would bear me a magnificent son, and I was right. Nicholas will learn to love me, and so will his mother. She won't have a choice. Everyone else she loves will be dead. My family will be reunited, and the Spencer's will be wiped off the face of the earth. Destiny cannot be defied.” I wasn’t too sure about this storyline in the beginning but it might turn out to be a good one. If you can overlook all the inconsistencies. We shall see.
