It's been another good week in the wonderful world of soaps, and there have been some really good performances. Who do you think did an outstanding job this week? I think As the World Turns' Terri Colombino and General Hospital's Laura Wright did amazing work this week. Suggest your Performers of the Week,  Honorable and Dishonorable Mentions in the comments. We'll read some of your choices on next week's Performer of the Week podcast!

Here’s the Scoop!

If you follow me on Twitter, I’ve tweeted a couple episodes of General Hospital as well as some primetime shows. GH has been fantastic, so most of my tweets were positive although, you all know me by now ,and know that a little sarcasm must come out!

For example, when Michael and Sonny were returning to Greystone, I tweeted: Awwww... father-son convo on how it'll feel a few days after your first kill. When GH dropped the obvious ball and left Lulu in her wet clothes in the ER I asked: Shouldn't they take Lulu out of her wet clothes? I mean I’m no M.D., but I would think the first thing would be to get the patient out of her very wet and cold threads. Right? Carly’s truth-telling to Jax was a shock that earned: WOW Carly is telling Jax the truth? That's a twist. I kinda like it. Carly rarely tells the truth and when she does, it must be noted. Plus, major KUDOS to Laura Wright who turned in another fine performance. I actually felt Carly's anguish over what telling the truth meant for Michael. READ MORE
