Just when I
thought I could not be more appalled this ridiculous storyline
between Courtney and Nikolas is being shoved down my throat. It is
daytime TV and in daytime TV there are supposed to be hot and sweaty
secret love affairs, but generally that is just it, they are
SECRET. Courtney and Nikolas have forgotten all about discretion
and blatantly make out on rooftops and on the PC docks. Everyone
knows those docks are one of the most traveled places in all of Port
Charles. To add insult to injury upon getting caught I have watched
Nik and Courtney blame everyone but themselves for their actions.
Nik blames Emily because she was raped and closed him off. I am
afraid the Prince has missed the boat on this one as his WIFE was
raped by a man who looked exactly like him. The rape was not enough
for her to have to process apparently because it is Emily's job to
confide in Nik so that he does not feel useless and is then forced
to make out with Courtney. Perhaps Emily should have skipped the
therapy, cut off her friends and family and hibernated at Wyndemere
so Nik could assuage his ego and feel as if he was actually helping
his wife. Not only is this all Emily's fault as far as Nikolas in
concerned, but even after being caught, he cannot fathom why anyone
is upset. You see, as both Courtney and Nik have told anyone who
will listen that they never actually slept together. It is scary
when Emily is the only one making sense, as I loved the way she
blasted Courtney and called her a home wrecker. She sure did nail
her but well.
I have a huge
problem with anyone who believes that it is only cheating if there
is sex involved. Sex can be just a physical act it is the betrayal
of that love and trust that hurts the most and no matter how much
Nikolas and Courtney protest, their betrayal of their spouses is of
the worst kind.
Then there is
Courtney who not only blamed Jax for her indiscretions (he was
paying too much attention to Elizabeth) but then she turned around
and blamed Nikolas. I am sure Courtney has not taken responsibility
for not one single thing she has done since she has hit Port Charles
but this "misunderstanding" (it cracks me up every time she utters
that word) really takes the cake.
Meanwhile Courtney
wanted a baby so bad and big bad Jax went and secured her one yet
she has not given even one thought to this child while she had Nik's
tongue down her throat.
Yeah, Yeah, I get
it.they haven't slept together..YET!!!!
This is what a "mis-understanding" looks like
Best Line I heard
last week (to paraphrase) Alexis to Carly "Sonny is already the
center of HIS Universe; don't make him the center of YOURS."
I am really
enjoying watching Carly lose her marbles, it is quite entertaining
for me; only thing is it seems a bit out of character. Remember
this is a woman who plots and plans revenge on those she believes
have done her wrong. She very carefully executed a plan to steal
her Mother's husband simply to destroy her for giving her up. Her
unborn child had 3 different fathers (Tony, AJ and Jason) and she
went as far as dousing AJ with alcohol to make it look like he fell
off the wagon in an effort to keep her son. Carly created Carly
Babes as a way to survive in the Q household. My point is Carly
does not go nuts, she plots revenge and from where I am sitting in
her mind Lorenzo is up for a good dose as well as Sonny and Reese.
Trashing Reese's house and writing whore on the mirror is just well
below what Carly is capable of.
I could like
Lorenzo and Skye together if Skye would just stop with the 5 cent
shrinkage. I don't really want to hear her remind him anymore of
how much he loved/loves Carly. He knows he loved her, we as the
audience have been taught this for months on end, and it is time to
just let it go unspoken. Give us a little more credit over here, we
do get it and if you stop reminding us, maybe we as an audience can
move on too.
I love Jason, have
always loved Jason and will always love Jason, but the only thing
his recent memory loss is doing for me is making me dislike Sam. It
was a pivotal scene where Jason had to inform Carly that he did not
know who she was, but the scene of Jason and Sonny passing one
another in the elevator, it was just that; strange. Sonny lacked
any real emotion in his reaction and gave Jason very little to play
off of. As a long term viewer and as someone who has been taught
for quite a few years now that the bond between mobster and enforcer
is very real and strong I was left mystified. Sonny took the time
to call Emily from the plane on his way to Florida, yet he just
passed Jason by with very little thought. I myself just really
didn't get it. Than there is Sam chasing the poor guy all over the
place and I am getting really tired of her tear stained longing face
as she pleads yet again for Jason to trust her. Further, Jason has
lost his memory but not his instincts, so wouldn't his instincts
clue him in that he is really sick? The last time Jason lost his
memory he still knew how to perform some emergency tracheotomy on
Nikolas in front of Luke's Club. With each passing episode I feel
almost as nutty as Carly.
I am going to back
track a little here to when Antonio bought Jessica home to Llanview.
I was witness to one of the most ridiculous conversations I have
ever heard. Jessica had to explain to Antonio that although she
slept around it was really her other personality that was using her
body and she (Jessica) wasn't even there. Plus, Jessica doesn't
even remember how many guys there were or who they might have been
so doesn't he feel so much better now?
I think it is time
to start dropping some major hints about just what it is that
Spencer has over David that could actually make DORIAN pass
judgment. Ummm, hello? This is Dorian.
Nash's violent
reaction to a missing Tess bordered on Psychotic. Chill dude, you
only just met her and you don't even know her last name. What did
you really expect?
Roxy just tickles
me; she is just such a riot. I love that she is who and what she is
and really does not care at all what anyone else thinks of her.
Do I even want to
broach the subject of Margaret and Todd? The other night I was
watching a re-run of Law and Order where a male stripper claimed he
was raped by 3 women who were at the party and I really felt for the
guy. No one would believe him and that is often what women go
through, but it has to be even harder for a guy. I did not see what
transpired between Margaret and Todd the first go around but if
indeed he was raped all those months ago, than I feel for the guy.
Todd came emotionally scarred to begin with I can only imagine what
this would do to him. To me it was so real (and I am sorry to say
and it is not an insult to the current actor but what I would not
have given to see Roget Howarth play those scenes) when Todd was
saying (to paraphrase) "what kind of monster could we (he and
Margaret) have made? Two rapists? What good could possibly be in
this child?" I can understand that line of thinking. That is not
to say I agree or disagree, but from a much damaged man who I think
has tried for all the years that he has been on the show to be
something a little better than what he is, I can understand where he
is coming from. No matter what Todd does, what he becomes, he will
always be the man that led the gang rape of Marty Saybrook.
Someone clear
something up for me, please. I think it was the end of Thursday's
episode and the last scene I saw was Nash blasting Tess for flirting
with the guy who had come into wherever it is they are. Then
Friday's episode started as if nothing happened with Nash going to
get Tess cold medicine. Did I skip an episode?
That's all for me
- Now that summer has come to an end I expect to post more
regularly.
