Being A Sam Fan First...

After watching Friday's episode I must say that although I really enjoy and love Jasam I am totally missing a Sam storyline that does not have her directly involved with Jason and his work. Seeing Alexis was like a breath of fresh air which surprised me because I wasn’t always an Alexis fan (especially when she used to be such a B to Sam). In the beginning of 09' before the final reconciliation between Jasam happened we had so many great scenes with Sam and her family. Her relationship with her sisters has been amazing to watch especially since Sam's relationship with Kristina and Molly are each very different from the other. Sam was able to help Kristina after the abuse and when she was going through the rough spot with Sonny...with Molly I see light hearted scenes where Molly lets her imagination run wild and Sam has to pull her back to reality...LOL...What happened Guza? I love my Jasam but does it have to be at the expense of solo Sam storyline's? And why hasn't Nik and Sam developed more of a relationship? They are cousins and I could actually sense the closeness they shared during the counterfeit drug ring S/L but after that nothing...Like I said I love Jasam but it would be refreshing to see our girl dead center in the middle of her OWN storyline, not having to be bait for Jason so he can protect Brenda, not having to steal evidence so Sonny doesn’t go down for murder, not having all her focus be on keeping Jason out of jail. I want McCall and Jackel P.I front and center, teaming up with some other GH alum to solve cases, building a relationship with her Cassadine cousin, sustaining the relationship with her mother and sisters and, wait for it, are you ready for the kicker? Finding out who her FATHER is! I have been patiently waiting for that S/L to take place since she found out Alexis was her mom in 06'. Come on Guza, it would be such a great S/L, what are you waiting for?????

On another note, does anyone else find it just weird to picture JJ and Kemo as LuSam? I don’t know about you but seeing them working together on Friday I just couldn’t ever picture these two together as couple...Greg Vaughn, all the way, LuSam was HOT!!!! (not better than JaSam) but when TPTB broke up Jasam to make room for Liason, LuSam was the only thing I could look forward to, GV and Kemo had some great chemistry, but JJ and Kemo, I just don’t see it. I had to ask myself, if JJ had always played Lucky would the writers have ever put these two together??? I watch them together and I forget that they are supposed to have a past together...all I can see are two friends, not ex-lovers.

The Claire/Sonny/Brenda/Dante debacle...ah come one...I must admit I am not at liking this storyline. First of all I didn’t expect to like Claire/Sonny but in the weeks before VM's return, I found myself not only enjoying them as a couple, but actually rooting for them. I was very upset when Sonny took the easy way out and ended things so abruptly with Claire...these two had animosity but managed to find something great in each other and I found them refreshing...It is strange too because I am a Sonny/Bren fan since the beginning but I must say I feel really let down and am not sure how I will ever get Sonny/Bren back with the way things have gone since she came back. I almost feel like we were cheated out of a great reunion storyline because the writers once again wanted to bring in another umbrella storyline. I ask them, Who Cares? Why for once couldn’t we fans get the reunion we have been waiting years for? I don’t see Sonny ever getting over the fact that the love of his life slept with his son. It doesn’t matter that Bren/Dante didn’t know that fact when it happened. It happened, the damage has been done and I just don’t understand how Sonny could that go, let alone Brenda. She is walking around knowing that the only man that she ever loved so passionately is the same man who fathered one of her lovers. Yuck...

Since the whole Dante/Brenda secret connection has come out we have been seeing less and less of Lante...(not that I am complaining). I just think its funny that TPTB practically shoved Lante down our throats since DZ came on canvas and now that Brenda is in PC and has a past connection to Dante, there has not been many Lante scenes. And the ones that are shown, Lulu is normally sleeping as Dante reflects back on his time with who? BRENDA! This doesn’t bother me as much as I find it funny because I am not a Lulu fan, Dante fan or a Lante fan. But I will say this, since this whole secret connection between the two of them has been presented to the viewers (in flashbacks/conversations) I am starting to see a side of Dante that I could get to like...I think its the "Sonny" side that may be coming out of him, dark, brooding, tortured soul...I am starting to see this side of him come out and actually think that if they get him away from Lulu I could actually enjoy his character...

All in all GH has been a roller coaster for me this week, I love Jasam and seeing them work together, but the other half of me wants my girl to have her own S/L. There are a few things that are coming out of Brenda's return that I like, but many that are just frustrating me...even my opinion of Liz changed this week...(not about everything, she still drives me crazy with her "perfect" act) but I really enjoyed her interaction with Robin about Emma's party...she gave really good advice and I was surprised that I didn’t find her completely annoying...I guess I will just have to wait and see what GH has in store for me this week, who knows, maybe my mind will change yet again...

Until next time...~cheers~

Yesterday scene leave me smiling/Michael and Abby

So yesterday's Jasam scene left me smiling...let me admit that the lack of Sam lately has been really getting on my nerves, but yesterday's warehoues scenes left my heart fluttering...Isnt it great how well these two work together? I am loving this new side of Jasam...vintage Jasam, Jason never wanted Sam involved, although there were a few circumstances when he was okay with it, for the most part Jason was not a firm believer in allowing Sam to help him with his work. I find it refreshing how we now have a female lead involved in these storyline's as opposed to just Sonny/Jason...
Anyway,
The other thing that GH has brought to me lately is the wonderful refreshing, growing relationship between Michael and Abby. (how great is it that we have Sam to thank for this.) These two are amazing...Michael has been forced to deal with some very hard issues this year. Becuase of this he has had to grow up faster and so I think this relationship with Abby can do him some good. Michael gets to talk to someone older, a little more mature, and someone who doesnt know every little thing that has gone on in his life, someone who can be objective. And I just love the character of Abby, the writers have found a diamond in the ruff with this one...please please please keep Abby around for Michael...I would be overjoyed!

Until next time...~cheers~
