I wouldn't miss Jason, Sam, McBain or Elizabeth if they all left and took Sonny with them.
I thought I would bust a gut laughing at Todd's ringtone once I realized that it was the one he set specifically for Heather's calls. Right up there with the ringtone was Todd telling Heather: "this is why you should never trust a stranger you meet in the woods, in the middle of the night, carting around a dead body in a wheelbarrow." I'm just surprised Heather didn't respond by asking him if he knew of a better way to cart around a dead body in the woods. I don't know if you ever watched Santa Barbara, but Todd and Heather are reminding me a lot of what I loved about Gina Capwell (played by the same actress) and Keith Timmons (played by Justin Dees, who later played Buzz Cooper on GL) relationship on Santa Barbara. Gina and Keith became a romantic pair and though I'm certainly not advocating for a Todd/Heather romance, the two actors are doing a great job of pulling off the same comic relief banter that I enjoyed so much about Keith & Gina on SB (my 3rd all time favorite soap couple).
I also enjoyed Lulu and Maxie confronting Patrick. Jason Thompson is still doing an amazing job with all of his material and I loved how they utilized Lulu's experience in dealing with Luke and Lucky all of these years to match Patrick at every excuse and defense he was trying to use to get them to back off.

Wow it has been awhile since I have been in this thread.
I am so glad to see that Jerry Jacks is back. I just hope that now that Jerry is back that Jax is going to be coming back soon also. I really miss Jax and I have always loved the relationship between the two brothers. Now that Jerry is back all the pieces are starting to fit together over Robin's disappearance and Ewen's involvement. The only thing missing to make this Robin stuff more interesting is Nikolas being on the show since Jerry and Nikolas have this big history of bad blood between them. I would love to see Tyler Christopher return to GH as Nikolas since the Cassadine presence these days is nonexistent. It is so great to have Robin back on the show.
This past week has been so very boring to watch except for the Johnny and Todd stuff. I really like the cat and mouse game that these two are playing with each other and I can't wait to see more scenes between these two guys. I can't believe how much I love having Todd on the show.
I am so ready for Tracy and Luke to reunite. Those two need to share more scenes with each other since Luke and Anna are extremely boring and Anna is sucking the life out of Luke right now.
I used to like Dante but now I am getting to the point where I am ready to see him leave the show with his mother Olivia. I am ready for Lulu to break up with Dante for good and to get back together with Johnny.
I am so sick and tired of this stuff that is going on with Trey and Kristina. I could care less about their storyline especially since I can't stand either actor that are playing the roles. I really need GH to rehire the other actress that used to play Kristina back or get rid of the character all together.
After watching Jen Liley today as Maxie I am so glad that Kristen Storms is returning to the role and will be back sometime next month.
I am still really enjoying all this stuff with Patrick and I like Lulu being involved in his storyline more than Maxie.
I can't believe I am going to say this but I actually really enjoyed the scenes the other day at the Floating Rib with Coleman, Alexis and Shawn. I actually don't hate Alexis and Shawn together even though I would rather have her with Mac. I loved the scenes with Alexis and Mac the other day and wish they would get more scenes together.
I am really not feeling this stuff that is going on with TJ and Molly and could care less about their relationship. I found out that TJ was recasted with a new actor. I love Molly and would rather see her be involved in something more adventurous.

I haven't seen today's episode yet so I didn't know Jerry was back but I suspected that was who Ewen was in cahoots with ... now I know why I never trusted Ewen.
I feel the same way about Alexis/Shawn/Mac. I don't mind Alexis/Shawn but that one conversation between her Mac was better to me than all of the Alexis/Shawn scenes combined.
I think Molly is still my favorite character on the whole show and I've come around to TJ now that they are getting along but it's still not a story or couple I care about. Maybe the recast will work better but I hope they won't regulate Molly solely to storylines revolving around her love life. She's way too intriguing to be so limited.
The new Kristina is still awful - Lexie Ainsworth would have made those scenes of Kristina telling Trey about Keifer much more powerful. This little actress didn't sell it at all. If I were new to the show I would have wondered if she were making it all up.
I did not know that KS had been confirmed as returning to GH - that is excellent news!!!

I just saw over on the daytime royalty site that Ingo Rademacher/Jax is going to be returning to GH. soapoperadigest.com/content/more-gh-returns-spoiler-alertQuote: GH reveals a closely-guarded casting secret on today's episode: Sebastian Roché is back as Jerry Jacks — and that's not all! Soap Opera Digest has learned that his on-screen brother, Ingo Rademacher (Jax), is also returning to the show. Jax was last seen in January and will be back on-screen this month. This is the best news ever for me. I have been waiting for his return ever since GH was stupid enough to fire Ingo. I just hope that this is going to be long term since Jax has always been one of my favorite GH characters ever.

I'm excited as well. Jax is a great character and it will be fun to see him back under writers who don't idolize the gangsters.

I really hope that Jax's gets some good writing under RC. Jax is one of the most interesting characters to ever hit Port Charles and I would love to see his fun side again that he had when he first was on the show. I don't like what Jax turned into when he was going up against Sonny this last go around. It has been so nice lately not having to watch Sonny and Jason being on everyday and being in the middle of every storyline. I actually having been hating Sonny and Jason as much as I used to probably because they are both involved in their own separate storylines and not featured as much. I am not a liason fan but I do have to admit that I actually haven't been hating the scenes that Jason has been sharing with Liz lately. I don't know if that is because Lucky is no longer on the show to be with Liz.
General Hospital lately is starting to remind me of the reason why I used to love this show before Sonny and Jason took over and I hope that it continues to get better.
Now that I have my Jax back I just need to have Nikolas come back so that I can have Luke and Tracy become involved in another Cassadine storyline with Helena. I miss Luke and Tracy going up against Helena and I am just not feeling Luke hanging around with Anna this time around. If Robert was still on the show then I would love to see Luke, Tracy, Anna and Robert have a big adventurous storyline together like the ones they used to have in the 80's and 90's.
