My Antonio: Recap for August 30th

On Sunday's episode of "My Antonio," Tully continued on her quest to win Antonio back, while he continued to present challenges to the women that would help him decide who to eliminate. The first of these challenges was a rigorous workout where the women had to run laps and climb a rope that was attached to a tree using nothing but their hands and upper body strength. I must admit I get confused everytime I watch this show because I cannot tell whether Antonio is looking for a soul mate or trying to put together a team of athletes.


Eventually Antonio gave the women a break, allowing them to play on a "Slip-n-Slide." That seemed appropriate considering that most of them are in their 30's and 40's. During this "recess" Tully hit her head, causing her to become ill. At that point play time was over and Antonio presented the women with their next challenge, to write a love letter for him. A love letter? This is Antonio Sabato, Jr.! Has he not had enough fan mail over the years to boost his ego? Apparently the women did not think so because they hurried back to the house and immediately starting pouring their hearts out, everyone except Tully that is, who was still recovering from her accident.


Later on Antonio read all of the letters then met with the women where he asked three of them to read what they had written out loud. He seemed particularly touched by what Tania, Christi, and Autumn had to say, even requesting dates with both Tania and Christi. I guess Autumn's letter was good, just not good enough to warrant a date. Tania's date came first, which was just a simple dinner, where she received several kisses on the cheek from Antonio. The next day Christi went on her date with Antonio, which was significantly more elaborate than the date he shared with Tania. Their date took place out on the ocean aboard a boat, where Christi became the first woman on the show to receive an actual kiss from Antonio, several kisses to be exact. However their romantic date was interrupted by Tully who became so jealous that she had someone drive her out to the boat on a wave runner. When she reached the boat she begged for some alone time with Antonio, so Christi allowed her to have ten minutes with him. Tully spent this time pleading with him to keep her on the show until she could spend enough time with him to get reacquainted. Once she left Antonio and Christi continued with their date as if nothing happened.


Later on at the elimination, Antonio did not waste any time revealing who was in danger of leaving. Ultimately it came down between Tully and Monique, a video game producer who had yet to spend any real time with Antonio. Antonio pulled them aside, allowing each one to plead their case for staying. And of course Antonio let Tully stay, after all she is helping to create controversy on the show. Once the elimination was out of the way both Christi and Tully wanted to talk to Antonio's mother. However, Christi was the only one allowed to speak to her because she refused to talk to Tully. Christi, acting as though she and Antonio were already in a serious relationship, attempted to explain her past as a Playboy model to Antonio's mother. However, this topic did not seem to phase her because she was too busy plotting to get rid of Tully, a task that she sought Christi's help in completing.

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

10 Ways General Hospital Could Improve

I doubt if I'm alone in saying that there is a lot wrong with General Hospital these days. While it continues to be one of my favorite soaps there are many changes I would make immediately if I had the power. Below is a list of the top ten suggestions I have for the way the show could improve. 1. The Claire/Sonny storyline needs to be dropped. It isn't working. Their conversations are boring and the context of their relationship is, well...icky. 2. Amp up Lisa's craziness. Despite my earlier distaste for a Robin/Patrick/Lisa triangle, the obsessed ex-girlfriend angle is working. It's interesting and very soapy. 3. Ronnie needs to be established as either a cop with a chip on his shoulder or someone who works for Franco. So far I haven't been able to tell whether Ronnie falls more on the side of good or bad because this character hasn't been clearly defined. 4. Brenda's life away from Port Charles and the people that surround it need to become an int
