A Table at the Tan-O: Conversations About the World of General Hospital

Gia and Keisha are coming to you a day early because Gia is going to be sharing her harmonica skills with some lucky students tomorrow! Anyway, some fun days in Port Charles! It's always a delight when Tracy and Cody have a scene together, especially when it involves making Drew look like a loser! Danny and Rocco are also very convincing as teenage boys, so it should be fun watching them getting on Gio's nerves all summer. Lulu con...

Willow. Oh, Willow. She's barely there. Drew could crush her with his bare hands! His big, lecherous, controlling hands! Who will save her (not Wiley)? Can she save herself? Nina is beside herself with worry. She's never gonna get rid of that furrowed brow. And then there's Kai, who loves Drew. So much. Way too much. Will it cost him Trina? Would that bother anyone? Plus, are Curtis and Portia going to make it, or are they already ...

Okay. Gia and Keisha are celebrating something. It's not clear what. But the long and the short of it is they are struggling with their thoughts. Sort of like Willow, but without the overbearing douchebag yammering non-stop. Anyway. They can't figure out who knows what. That's across multiple storylines. They also can't figure out why. Apply that to anything you like. Storyline. Outfit. Beverage. Your call. Also who. As in, who car...

Gia is back! And, according to her, functioning at 98%. We'll let her believe that. So much happening in Port Charles! A lot of raised voices, but some of them reasonable (Maxie and Chase)! Brook Lynn struck Lulu, and the world rejoiced. Chase didn't strike Dante, and the world was impressed. Jason didn't strike Drew, and that was probably smart, although he could have paid some kid to punch him in the nuts, and the world would hav...

Lucky! Why? What a waste of a great character. Let's hope Lucky's departure doesn't clear the way for Ric. Elizabeth deserves better. Meanwhile, Sasha and Michael have a daughter--Daisy! Shouldn't Michael start fresh with these two, and leave Wiley and Amelia to Drillow? And will Cody become a gigolo? Maybe? That could be fun. Also, Natalia is back to her old self. More fun? We'll see!

Gia and Keisha are coming to you a day early because Gia is traveling to Montana tomorrow. Good luck, Montana! Now, the custody battle. The first casualty: Sasha. Poor Sasha. That baby had better be okay, or Jason, Michael, and anyone else interested in being a father to Sasha's baby will be coming down hard on Ric and whoever spilled Sasha's beans. Meanwhile, the whole Gio situation is still being processed at a high volume. Excep...

It's getting loud in Port Charles! Perhaps a rule limiting the amount of shouting per episode to, say, five minutes? No? Worth a try. Brook Lynn's voice is sounding tired. Gloria's voice could peel paint. Even Rocco is loud. And no one needs to hear Lulu's voice. Kristina, Alexis, and Lucky are sounding a bit nutty, even mental. Sonny! Who knew Sonny's voice would become the most soothing? Wouldn't it be fun if Gio moved in with Gr...

Some great daytime drama in Port Charles! Now, Lois is catching a lot of flak for the decisions she made re: Gio, but Gia and Keisha are feeling a bit of sympathy for her. Of course, Lulu deserves every bit of criticism leveled at her. She's awful. Tracy and Ned get points for loveliness. As does Emma. Back squarely in the awful department: Drew. How did he manage to find a way to become so much worse?! So much. Pocketing Lila's ri...

The votes are in, and the winner of best Nurse's Ball performance is----A tie? Gia liked(!) the children at the end. She hasn't been the same since she cut down on the drinking. And Keisha liked Trina and Joss (also their dresses). So, much like the Curtis vs. Portia debate, they have agreed (grudgingly) to disagree. Also, Michael is back! Well, someone answering to the name Michael has arrived and stolen Wiley (notice no one fough...

Oh boy! Lots of action at the Nurse's Ball! And not all of it embarrassing! First, Nina was great on the red carpet. A real pro. Drew. Well, Drew. Best dressed? Gia and Keisha are in agreement! On that and not much else. Well, Lulu is terrible. They still agree about that. And Gio has some real acting chops! He's not just a pretty violinist! But, oh dear, so much pain. And then there's Alexis and Kristina. Talk about a handful. And...

Gia and Keisha may never like Lulu again. And Dante is on thin ice. Thin ice! Carly and Nina, well. Those two could be spokesmodels for Sonny's vulva gym. Almost too bad that Joss broke up the fight. And maybe they just need to get Drew in the ring and give him a good, old-fashioned pummeling? Also, can someone pick up the phone and call Michael? Or just send him a text? Now, what will Curtis do about Portia? Is she out after three...

Some stuff going on in Port Charles! At the risk of sounding like a broken record, Lulu and Dante are awful. We hope at least Dante can recover. Rocco is exhibiting some strength of character. Always nice to see in a young man. Of course, Drew has zero character. Sonny is growing as a character. Will he leave Sidwell for Laura, Jordan, and Anna to handle? Throw Joss in the mix, and they might be okay. Although Joss is down a friend...

Dante! Try harder! Ditto, Lulu! Yeesh. Rocco would be better off being raised by wolves right now. And Tracy, what's your deal? Playing both sides all over town. Behave! Now, will Jason and Sasha figure out Drew thwarted Willow's plans to see Michael? Will Jason track down baby Gio for Tracy? Will Jason and Sonny get out of the mob and, what, coach little league? That could be cute. Also, what is Drew doing with a vial of something...

Well, Gia and Keisha are upset with Dante. And still Lulu, but mostly Dante right now. Poor Gio. Let's hope he can recover from this. Also, how fun are Rik and Ava skulking about town, spreading joy. Is Alexis going to snap? Plus Sonny seems to be making a remarkable recovery, as is Kai. Modern medicine, right? And there is a bit more talk about horses. And also badgers. And bunnies. Sorry.

Emotions are running high in Port Charles! But not high enough when it comes to Willow. She calmed right down. And Nina and Portia's plan unraveled in a hurry. Drew is going to destroy Portia. Will Lulu destroy Brook Lynn? Will Tracy destroy Lois? And will Rocco recover? Lots going on! Also, Gia talks about horses. And Keisha talks about scammers.

Wow. The Savoy is where it's at! Gia and Keisha are still processing the body shot scene. That Drew just keeps finding new ways to behave badly. And he behaved really, really badly. So fun! Also, Lulu is kind of behaving badly and maybe fooling herself, but not Gia and Keisha. Plus, it looks like Joss is going to behave badly because she's a spy now, and that's what spies do. But will she be able to live with herself? Probably. She...

And, what do you know, Drew gets worse. Lulu gets worse too. And Kristina. Portia gets worse, which makes her better? Ava stays about the same. Sonny gets a little better? Carly gets a little weaker. Brick just gets it done. Also, a real treat to see Mike! He makes any scene better.

Drew. And. Willow. No. Thanks. Gia and Keisha are not interested in seeing this couple doing anything, but especially it. Let's not let that happen again, okay? Also, what does that creepy bastard have in mind for young Kai? Some lovely moments, though: Ned, Brook Lynn and Chase--we might need more Ned. Jason and Danny also had a nice father-son moment, and Laura and Lulu--well, where did Lulu get the money for this house? And why ...

Gia and Keisha are a little bit cranky! Blame Sidwell! Who needs this guy? No one! Even his son seems like a dink. And Natalia has very loose lips. Plus Gia has a lot to say about horse casting. Keisha is neutral on that front. Also, Anna is going to continue letting the citizens of Port Charles take care of the serious criminals--good for her! What could go wrong? And Carly is back to being Sonny's buddy. What will Jack have to sa...
