What?! A positive column you say? Unbelieveable! Carolyn doesn’t do positive. She’s the queen of negativity. Right? Wrong. I’m miss happy; happy to be alive; happy to be watching General Hospital and mostly, happy for SoapNet! I’m most thankful for SoapNet because I’ve been so busy this week I’ve barely had time to watch General Hospital. But what I did get to watch was good. Real good!

I’m so excited at the thought of Carly and Sonny breaking up. It’s not that I’m a total anti-Sonny and Carly fan, because I did like them for a long, long time. It’s more that Carly needs to grow some of those ‘kahunas’ she once had back and start standing up for herself. And to do that, she needs to be without Sonny. Besides, good soap operas are based on relationships coming and going. There are few couples that ever truly stay together. Luke and Laura divorced, so it can happen to anyone.

I like that they’re taking Carly into the direction of her husbands mortal enemy. What a play on drama. That, my friends, is good soap opera. I like that she is conflicted and confused and doesn’t know fantasy from reality. She’s lost in a world of what if, surrounded by fluffy clouds of dreams so seemingly real she can’t see any truth. Upon seeing her ‘husband’ she shows us angst and trepidation and when we see her with Lorenzo, she lights up. That’s good soap opera. I even like that the relationship she had with Jason is lost to her and what’s better than a woman so confused and disoriented she’s not sure she loves the children she gave birth to? Love it! L O V E Love it!

I like that Sonny’s taken off the drab suits and is now wearing something that makes him look hot. As much of a jerk that he is, I still think he’s attractive. Now if we could get Jason in something other than a tee shirt, life might get even better!

I like that Zander is finally saying “screw you” to Emily. It’s about time. I think it’s great that Liz, in an action that, lets admit it here folks, all woman want to do at times...sleep with someone else when the man you love has hurt you unforgivably. Way to screw it all up Liz! That’s great soap opera. Now she’s going to be pregnant! What promise that brings! I’m so excited to see how Zander, the infamous child-man, handles that responsibility and what it does for the Em-Liz relationship, not to mention the Liz-Ric relationship. And hopefully, if we’re lucky, that is, we’ll get a taste of Lucky feeling what he missed out on due to Hells brainwashing...great potential.

I’m excited to see that Courtney might take a turn on the dark side and become interested in someone other than Jason. Brian isn’t as odd as I thought. I’m still not sure what it is about his face, but it is getting a bit better looking. Any man in a uniform is a turn on to me though, so I’m a bit biased.

Okay, I’m not interested in Jax and Sam and I don’t like either character, but at least we’ve got Tracy back ad she’s got the cards and that will be a whole lot of fun! And Luke and Skye? Gosh, I sure hope they don’t make them related. That would totally bum me out because they’ve got great chemistry and the opportunities for them are limitless. When she fell on top of him by the water, I was almost standing up and screaming “GO FOR IT LUKE! KISS HER!” Then I remembered they might be related and that made me feel yucky. So let’s just home the related idea goes away.

Friday, when Dillon (the next Jonathan Jackson, in my eyes) introduced Tracy to Georgie and she said “Is she pregnant?” I about pee’d in my pants. Love Tracy! Welcome back! I love Dillon, I love Georgie and bringing Tracy into the mix will add loads of laughter. I’m excited to see his Thanksgiving special. I recently read an interview about him in either SID or SOD and he’s a trip. He said he was shy, but personally I can’t even begin to imagine that. And he said he didn’t have a girlfriend but I personally saw him leaving the hotel with a cute girl in his car...maybe he’s already given her his walking papers.

Sage. Sage. Sage. I’m a bit confused about the sudden switch, to an actor we’ve already had on screen in the past few weeks, but hey, we’ll see what happens. To think that a young girl can walk around a court house carrying a gun in these times is a bit odd to me, but then again, I’m supposed to suspend reality here at 3pm. I’m interested in seeing what’s going to happen. I’m interested to see what Lorenzo is going to do with this little girl. And whomever comes back into his life...which may be Sophia, adding even more drama to the soap!

Okay, okay, even though I’m really liking General Hospital right now, I do have a big problem with some of it. Please, somebody do something to Lorenzo’s hair! It’s HORRIBLE!

Have a great week. Enjoy General Hospital! I sure am!
