General Hospital: Week in Review for December 13, 2010

Jason Morgan, General HospitalFunniest Moment: Alexis is always right there for us when we need a pick-me-up, and this week was no exception. When Diane objected to Alexis defending Brenda from murder charges, Alexis was forced to acknowledge the past, and in front of Theo besides. Sure, yes, Alexis defended Brenda for murder before, for killing Luis Alcazar, even though it was Alexis who killed him. Alexis just wanted Diane to shut up already: "It was in self-defense -- he ran into my knife!" So what's the problem??

 

 

WTH? Moment: Sonny and Jax are working together? Sure, their alliance couldn't be shakier or more begrudging, but even that we thought was pushing it. We guess it goes to show the lengths that both of these men will go to in order to protect Brenda.

 

Best Moment: The Balkan is revealed! We had our money on Jerry Jacks (so did Siobhan, apparently), but finding out that malcontent hospital patient Theo Hoffman -- with his nerd glasses and Shakespeare obsession -- is the master criminal hunting down Brenda is kind of a mind-blower. Our favorite part? That Theo's "THEATAH!" accent is fake, but that his real accent isn't Balkan either. Sure does sound scary, though.

I have to admit I didn't see Theo as being the Balkin, thought it might be Jerry but then the son seemed too old to be Jerry's
When Brenda and Sonny come on I turn the channel they are getting on my nerves, I am also tired of Lisa and that storyline, Johnny is getting on my nerves I was really disappointed that he is helping Lisa gaslight Robin, the best way for Robin to get back at her is to take Patrick back, that would really make her go over the edge or better yet she should go over a ledge.

I was shocked that Jason was allowed to utter Elizabeth's name! But I LOVED it! I know Jason still does and always will love Elizabeth. Elizabeth loves him too. They were on their way to being an out in the open couple until this show, ridiculously, decided against it. They have the classic soap story of good girl/bad boy- a winning combo...especially when Becky Herbst and Steve Burton are playing the parts. I hope this leads to lots of interaction and their eventual reunion. I love seeing Jerry! Too bad he couldn't rid Port Charles of a few of it's unnecesary residents. I'm looking forward to seeing how the Balkan thing works out. As far as Carly this week...I hope she concentrates on getting that stripper away from her sexually traumatized son. Let's also hope she finds out who hooked Micheal up with Abby and kicks her interfering BUTT!!

this week had no but WOW sad to say that but i knew Theo was the Balkan that was easy. knew that Siobhan would be working for him to.

one thing i am most happy about is the MABBY thing. love that Micheal gots someone like Abby. wanted to hit Carly for allmost missing it up.

CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE 29th this month saw something about a bus crash and i must say it felt like the old gh. not like this Brenda crap cant even watch her and sonny anymore just makes me SICK. for the 1st time in along time i was excited & nervous. cant wait to see it play out it.

p.s. Sam is Jason match. Liz is nothing she would could never life the life that Sam and Jason live. Sam and Jason ROCK!

I was pleasantly surprised that Jason talked about Elizabeth. I'd like to see them in scenes together, and more so I'd like to see them have a story that leads to them being a couple again. Steve Burton and Rebecca Herbst have sizzling chemistry that really should be utilized on the show.

Wow They LET Jason mention Liz.. THAT is huge.. lets hope and PRAY it means they've finally realized that fans just are NOT into Jason with the woman who wanted his son GONE... Sure hope this leads to better things on GH!

Well, the GREATEST MOMENT for me was JASON MORGAN saying ELIZABETH'S name! That was a shocking moment! I hope it's a sign of good things to come...LIASON scenes! FORBIDDEN LOVE IS THE BEST KIND OF LOVE STORY.

Diane and Alexis are always fabulous! Also loved Carly questioning Abby! Hopefully, she will learn how Michael and Abby really met. And let the sparks fly!

Jerry Jacks was entertaining. Theo as The Balkan...shocker! Only not. But I like DB so it's all good.

Alright you have pleased the 60 or 65% of your fan base seeing Brenda/Sonny make love. What about pleasing the rest of us seeing them implode once and for all. There is no longer any chemistry between them. You have made them blame everyone else for their past breakups. Please it's the same thing happening again with them. They start off great then one of them trips up. Please, stop the Sonny and Brenda show there are other parts to GH. Sonny belongs more with Carly who accepted his mobster life style. Brenda hates it. Sonny will promise to quit but will go back to it, like he has done in the past. Brenda now looks like a better fit for Jax. Or get Brenda someone else so she can forget Sonny. Would love to see it. Have Carly run to Sonny and get in bed with him again, and have Brenda or Jax catch them doing it again. In any case Stop Brenda from acting like a twlve year old. Have her be a little more logical then stupid with Sonny. I know this is a soap and I guess if someone has to be ignorant or slow in the LOVE area, it might as well be Brenda. She keeps going back for more! Itseems she will never find a true loving spouse that will love her unconditionally. Sonny will want her to do what he wants to control her.

The best thing this week was Jason's talk with Dante. I hope he heeds Jason's good advice....

1. Sometimes doing what you think is right and hurting those you love out of not being honest to spare them can backfire.
2. Going after a life that is unattainable and not in your best interest can provide pain and grief for those around you.
3. Past loves are just that....in the past...that is why Liz and Jason will never work, they are two different people now and on two different paths.
4. Hurting those that are perfectly fine with your life and a part of your being and survival is not only stupid but narrow minded...to think that they couldn't accept your trials and the mistakes you've made, is unacceptable. Sam accepts Jason and she was willing to accept his child, plus she does not see his life as dangerous, which makes her his perfect match.

Way to go GH for finally facing all the reasons why that year of unacceptable behavior is a place of refection and sadness for Jason...I hope you learned Dante because Brenda will bring you that same grief.
