She asks about John’s work status.  He says things are difficult in Llanview, and Alexis tells him to find another job to prove he can provide for his son. She hopes he’ll stay in PC, because Sam needs him. 
 
Monica is surprised to hear AJ called Michael and Sam to come over.  Michael sits with Edward and tells him that while they weren’t close, he admired him.

I loved yesterday's show but I'm just not digging AJ. I know I'm in the minority but he's just such a whiner and he talks to Michael like he's an eight year old. I would've like to see a more direct scene with Monica talking to Edward than the AJ bit at the end. But Jane Elliot was once again awesome.

Hooray it's Sean! Hooray it's Sean with something to do besides dishes! Looks like Sean will become the new Jason, which I don't really mind because it gives Sean something to do besides dishes and it could also put Alexis in a bit of a quandary. Give that relationship a little tension (it really needs a wrench thrown in, along with some actual airtime to develop).

Well today's episode just ended with the best scene EVER in GH's history. Even topped Tony-listening-to-BJ's-heart-in-Maxie's-chest scene.

tvlover01 please stop shouting.

Enough with the Sam vs. Liz, Danny vs. Jake, just for the rest of the week. Let's enjoy the great episodes and agree to disagree for a day or two, this bashing is giving me a headache already, not to mention tvlover's shouting! Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I thought today's episode was lovely and the end-scene spectacular but I don't think GH can ever top Tony-listening-to-BJ's-heart-in-Maxie's-chest scene. For me, the Claire Labine years was GH at it's creative high-point and Ron Carvialti, while very good, can never come close. JMO.

tvlover - You are completely missing my point. I don't think it should be Jake instead of Danny. I think it should be Jake and Danny. If you asked me before Danny was born whether or not there should be a Danny, I would have said no. But, he is here now and I do not wish for the death of any child..even a fictional one. I'm done until after the holiday. Happy Turkey Day everyone!

Jane Elliot was amazing and just about broke my heart in her scenes with her "Daddy". Hopefully she gets more to do in the near future than serve as a sounding board for Luke and being mean to AJ.

Loved hearing that Clint s being a meanie to John in the custody battle with Natalie. My Christmas wish would be for Clint to pop in for an extended visit to Port Charles, maybe he and Tracy could do a little sparring in the boardroom and the bedroom. You know he and Viki have to be on the outs with all of the stuff he is doing to McBain.

Not feeling Shaun being Sonny's new Jason though. Why Shaun is relegated to slinging hash and kidnapping crazy chicks for Sonny is a mystery to me. I would love to see him and Alexis get a nice juicy storyline all their own.

And my head almost exploded when Sonny of all people was whining about other people taking advantage of the legal system like he hasn't been doing the same thing to cover his butt on far more occasions.

I have loved the last two episodes of GH. Thank you Frank and Ron for touching my heart and making me cry. Jane Elliot has had some great scenes, and come Emmy time... I would not be surprised to see her take one home. She was just wonderful.

We lost a wonderful man, and integral character on GH with John Ingle's passing. I was especially touched when I listened to Richard's (Editor of SoapsInDepth) interview with Ron concerning GH recently. I learned that JI contacted Frank about coming back for his last episode. He really wanted to do it...and then he hung in there long enough to watch it... before passing a few days later. That actually made me cry to hear that...just like these last two episodes that were written to honor him.

Once again thank you for putting the heart back into GH.

Oh and I also agree about Jake. I am still very bitter that he is not on this show...I hope that Ron corrects this travesty next.

Nor am I. Also, Sonny has barely shown any emotion of Jason's "death". What's that about? I thought he'd be flat on his back for a week to lose Jason. It's not as though he's a wife or a girlfriend of something! Wink
