GH Bummers and GH Fun
I have watched General Hospital for many, many years. In fact, I bought my first VCR because I missed the critical scene where Frisco returns home after being imprisoned on foreign soil and presumed dead. He arrives just in time to see his wife Felicia getting remarried. Missing that moment prompted me to buy a VCR. Seriously. And they were expensive back then.
Ah, those were the days.
Now, I fast-forward through much of the show. Plus there are the moments I wish I had missed: like the moment last week when I completely lost respect for Kate. She was one of the few characters I liked but then she told her fiance Sonny and her married business partner Jax that they should go along with her plan to stoke erroneous gossip that she is having an affair with Jax because the added buzz would be good for business.
What? Huh?
Jax said "no." Even Sonny said "no." And that had to be the first time ever that I have agreed with Sonny.
I'm also bummed that Spinelli and Maxie finally got together, after Spinelli has mooned over her for ages, only for it to end with Maxie saying essentially, "I never should have taken advantage of you like that. You're my best friend, I don't want to risk that." Poor Spinelli, he was heart-broken. Me too. They are so cute together.
Lately the fun-est thing about GH has been reading about it at Serial Drama. Super-funny GH-dissing right there on my iGoogle homepage! Love that.
