Stuck on You: GH

I guess it must be time for a soap opera makeover. Lulu walked into the hospital on Thursday seeking help after she glued her hand to her head. Having introduced such a random scene can only mean one of two things, either Julie Marie Berman is getting a haircut and the writers wanted to find a way of acknowledging that, or Lulu is about to be involved in a love triangle with Matt and Dante. I mention the love triangle theory because as Lulu was waiting for someone to help pry her hand away from her hair Dante arrived and continued to make flirtatious advances. Resisting, Lulu told him she had plans with Matt who was ultimately the one to come up with a way of getting her hand separated from her hair.

Personally I think the idea of a Matt and Lulu pairing is inspired. I really cannot say that I like the idea of her and Dante. They do not have enough chemistry. Moreover Lulu needs someone who is not involved in Sonny's world for a while. I got tired of all the angst that was Lulu and Johnny. It would be refreshing and a nice change of pace to see her with someone who is the polar opposite of her ex-boyfriends. It is also about time that GH gave Matt a love interest. His mild flirtation with Maxie is clearly going nowhere at the moment and he has been on this show long enough to finally be paired up with someone.

  1. I totally agree about Matt and LuLu - I never would have thought about them as a couple, but I am now thinking it could work. I *do* like Dante though (although I will like it better when he is all out of being Dominic) but am still not sure about their pairing either. It's too soon to tell how they're going to play the romantic pairings, but only showing them randomly every couple of weeks is not enough!! How are we supposed to get invested if we don't see them too much. Sigh.

    Great blog!

  2. Hi Entertamy! Thanks for the post and for the compliment. I will also be relieved once this whole Dante/Dominic thing gets resolved. I think it has played out about as long as it can. I do love the Dante character though so I am hoping he sticks around for a while. And what great casting! He looks just like a younger version of Sonny! And you are right showing potential couples together for a few minutes every so often makes it difficult to root for any of them. That is one reason I can't get behind a Dante/Lulu pairing. I know the writing seems to be heading in that direction, but at this point it just feels too forced.

All About Mia: DOOL

After months of allowing herself to be deceived and manipulated by Nicole and Stefano so that she could keep her baby's adoption intact, only to find out that said baby wasn't hers because her baby had died, one would think that Mia would have enough drama to last a lifetime. Instead it seems that she has picked up a few bad habits from Nicole because she has turned to manipulating Gabi in order to stake her claim on Chad, someone she didn't seem to want a few weeks ago. As if the Mia character wasn't irritating enough already, this newly calculative Mia is actually making me feel sorry for Gabi, which only makes her that much more irritating. I was stunned that she used Nicole's hearing as an opportunity to drive a wedge between Chad and Gabi, the same hearing that they were discussing her baby's death and the kidnapping of Will's baby sister. In doing this she not only undermined Will's importance in her life, but Sydney and Grace's as well...and p

Bad Goodbye: GH

Words cannot express how much I hate the way GH is writing Steve Burton out of the show. I realize his leaving sort of came as a surprise, but in my opinion they could have given him a better send off than the one he is getting. It feels extremely rushed and quite frankly a little convoluted. First of all we have Bernie with his sudden hand-wringing over something that supposedly happened almost a year ago; and he just has to meet Jason on the night he finally reunites with Sam...on the pier no less.  And don't even get me started on how Joe Scully and "Duke Lavery" are involved in all of this. Up until a few months ago Joe was an antiques dealer working in a little known shop that probably wasn't even being used as a front. In addition there is no way Jason would ever allow himself to be shot in the back. He would have looked around the pier to make sure he wasn't walking into an ambush before ever trying to talk to Bernie. However the most upsetting thing about
