I survived a week with no spoilers and it wasn't so hard in someways but hard in others. As much as I hate those spoilers, I do tend to seek them out. Much like when you diet then when you fall off the wagon you fall hard and woof down an entire box of cheezits followed by a chocolate cake. I feel like I have woofed down that box of spoiler cheezits and now am laying on the couch groaning in regret. I am sad to see that it looks like after this week there are very few spoilers about Jason and Sam for the next few weeks. We can hope they spend Christmas together and Sam bows out of Project Resurrect Alexis' Love Life take 15. I just hope we can all make it through those weeks if JaSam are really in fact not on. I guess this only thing we can look forward to that we know for sure is this week. We have Jason and Sam on everyday (or so the spoilers say). Oh there I go again relying on spoilers. I've been trying to remind myself spoilers are usually only 1/2 true and are really just out there for entertainment not reality. False spoilers always help me snap back into reality.
Speaking of snapping back into reality, Jason had a reality check today of an alarming magnitude. Just the mention of Jerry's name sent Jason's blood pressure on the rise. Jason could not think straight as soon as our new Port Charles detective team thought of Jerry being involved. All Jason was thinking about was the danger Jerry's presence will bring to Sam. Yes, for once he actually remembered his girlfriend first. He is terrified Jerry will do something to Sam because they all know Jerry likes to torment Sam. Sam is Jerry's favorite victim but lets not forget Sam has gotten away from Jerry more then once. Jerry is twisted and calculated in his every move but I can't wait for Jerry to be back on screen and in Port Charles. He is just the villain the show has been missing. I think I also like he likes to go after Sam because that makes Jason go out of his mind. Even when Jason and Sam weren't even close to being back together Jason was willing to risk his life for Sam when Jerry took her. Jerry might just be what we all have been waiting for to help our super couple take things to the next level. We have read the spoilers Jason asks Sam to move in and I have also see that one spoiler that says Sam turns him down again. But just maybe there is something more to this and there is another renewed promise and commitment. Maybe Jerry's presence will remind Jason how precious his life with Sam is and he needs to put her first for good this time.
Another dose of reality was the Michael and Abby scenes today but this was a refreshing dose for them both. Their scenes together were so honest and real that it really sums up exactly why I think we all are falling in love with this match. Michael has needed someone like Abby who will be honest with him and he can be honest back. They aren't trying to hide how they feel about each other or how much they are helping each other cope with their past. Abby is perfect for Michael because she isn't focused on typical teenage drama and neither is he.
Maxie is doing her best to snap Robin back to reality but that poor girl has her work cut out for her on that quest. She has really been the words of wisdom for Robin. Robin needs to try to see past her pain and listen to Maxie because Maxie is right the clock is running out on the window of opportunity here. I get Robin is hurt and I think she has EVERY right to feel that way but Robin is being a bit narrow minded and selfish too. She needs to think about her daughter and how she will benefit from her parents being together. Because that is the reality of the situation.
While I didn't loath Elizabeth today, she really should realize gossip, especially hospital gossip, isn't really a good thing to get into given her past transgressions. But at least she is being Robin's friend right now. I am also glad Liz didn't use her time productively at work and found Lisa's confession while she was surfing sites.
Oh Olivia, while I am not your biggest fan, sometimes you are have some hilarious lines. I loved her line when she was sitting in Jax's office "WHOA WHOA WHOA NELLY! Friends go out for a hamburger at Kelly's or perhaps a cold beverage at Jake's."
"I don't think Brenda is having a problem with reality here."
Her sass comes in handy sometimes and thank goodness she has it. She seems to be the only one able to tell Jax exactly how it will work and he really should have paid attention to her advice. I loved her message of reality today.
The two clearly farthest from reality today were Sonny and Brenda. They were reliving old times and while I am a big fan on getting these two back together, I think it is going to be a little hard listening to Brenda laugh again. I like when she is worried and threatened because she doesn't laugh. Otherwise I was happy to see the two out on a date. Carly even handled it better then expected. Speaking of Carly, I love how she twists reality to manipulate poor Spinelli. She'll send him off to find out the truth of all the scandal once and for all. This will chose to be interesting.
Call the comment lines, let our voices be heard. Thank them so much for a week of Jason and Sam! We are so lucky!

It's Been Awhile
I've been out of town and out of touch with technology for the last week for the Thanksgiving holiday. I have just been catching up on all that I have missed. This year we can all be thankful for the fact that even though sometimes we have no clue what TPTB are doing at least they have kept our amazing couple together and allowed their relationship to grow so strong this year.
Thanksgiving week proved to be amazing with our surprise romantic dinner for our super couple. Molly and Spinelli did a fine job at getting Jason and Sam some much needed time together. I am glad Molly pointed out to Jason exactly what we all wish he would have realized a while ago. Though I got the impression neither Jason nor Sam needed the formality of the evening to include the change in entire but we all enjoyed seeing them in something other then black leather jackets. I also loved that when Sam gave Jason a chance to back out of their night together he was not having any of it. He wanted nothing more then to spend the night with Sam. The humor that this couple has always been able to express on screen was a live and well. If you looked closely to Molly's list, it had over a dozen items on it. Oh Molly, I hope she gets to plan a wedding someday but I hope they get to escape all of her wildly romantic (slightly delusional) plans and elope. When Jason made his toast the look they exchanged was brilliant and made me melt. The best part was the final dance which was better then a love scene any day because it was ever bit as hot but also showed their level of devotion for one another.
Today's episode was a great day, I know it was short but it was still great. Today Sam had her own scenes, which I love. She and Lucky discussed Siobhan and his heart. It was sweet that LuSam don't completely gloss over the fact they were once an item. Yes, the Greg Vhaun was a much sexier Lucky but Johnathan Jackson brings a level of vulnerability and gentleness to the Lucky character that was lacking with GV. I loved GV as Lucky but he was a different Lucky then the one JJ created as the character and has rediscovered since his return. Now I can't really imagine JJ and KeMo doing the hot tub scene that LuSam shared but at least the writers are not forgetting these two were in a relationship for over a year not that long ago which is nice because it shows a little more depth to their characters.
Was it just me or was Jason more smitten then usual with Sam? This couple has come a long way since even a year ago at this time because they are willing to show the world they are a couple. Jason is so committed and in love with Sam he could hardly keep his hands off of her. He was so distracted by her he didn't really care much about the Balkan or whoever "Jack" is. You could tell if Dante and Lucky were not there what Jason wanted to be doing with Sam in her office. I also loved when Sam ran out to go to work a case Jason could not take his eyes off her.
Today we also got to see Sam working. Yes Lizzard fan lovers, Sam is a very successful PI who can take care of business any day of the week. Sam's busy work schedule seemed to catch Dante's attention as well. He, being the only one in that PI office today who has not been in a relationship with Sam, knows very little about her overall. She, on the flip side, knows a lot about him including the sister they share hates him.
This should be a good week for Jason and Sam fans. I can't wait to watch!

True to Form
Today was a classic example of everyone being very true to their character to the most frustrating level for some.
The constant disappointment of the lack of long Jason/Sam scenes is taking it's toll on us and our patience. But lets look at the finer points of today's show because focusing on the constant disappointment only makes us more angry and frustrated. We will feed off of it and not accomplish any productive with our TV viewing. Lets face it we all watch GH to escape into a world where beautiful people are the norm and their problems are far more entertaining then ours. Today was another classic case of falling victim to spoilers. When we will ever learn? It seems like every time we read spoilers on some sites that say 'Jason and Sam make love' or something to that effect we actually think they are true. I warn you now, if there is ever a spoiler that says 'Jason and Sam have a love scene' rest assure it is probably false. The actors have publicly stated they do not do love scenes together. Do not expect that to change any time soon. Also remember spoilers are not true over half of the time. Don't fall victim to them. I offer everyone a challenge. Try to go just one week without reading spoilers. I promise you the show will be less of a disappointment if you accept this challenge.
I actually loved Sam and Jason scenes today contrary to everyone. I had a huge advantage because I didn't get to see the show live so I had read the tweets and comments before I watched which helped me look at the show from an entirely (slightly deflated) different view. The reason I loved it is it spoke volumes to how far our couple has come. In their first scene Jason knew he needed to apologize to Sam and she was none to thrilled to see him which is good that he knows he needs to be true to her. I loved her line "What is there something wrong?" when she answered the door. Jason went to her because he knew he had screwed up and hurt her. He doesn't like guarding Brenda but he is obligated to do it (or so he feels he is) and he hates what it is doing to his relationship with Sam. They both hate the walls this is putting up between them and instead of doing what they did 3 years ago of pulling back from one another, this time they are communicating about it. They have come a long way of being afraid to hurt each other so much they stopped communicating. Sam did something I am not sure I could have done. She show such maturity to this situation she accepted Jason and all that comes along with him. That took incredible strength on her part to accept Jason and all of his baggage (Carly, Sonny and even Brenda). Sam really is absolutely incredible and it is hard to see why Jason deserves her at times. Sam meant what she said when she told Jason back on July 29th this year "I want you Jason. However I can get you." Jason sees how wonderful Sam is everyday but sometimes she even amazes him with her patience and understanding. Sam is all that is keeping Jason from absolutely losing his mind he needs her more now then ever. He counts on her more then ever. Jason has never delivered on about 78,890 promises he has made to Sam but she still loves him. She accepts him for all of his flaws and all. That is the most amazing beautiful love I have ever seen. Most of us would get fed up in these minor details and yes Brenda is a minor detail contrary to what other fan-bases want everyone to think. We would walk away from Jason if we were Sam because lets face it she does deserve to be treated much better. But she loves him so much and accepts him just the way he is which is why she stays. She meant what she said long ago, she will never ask Jason to change for her. She has to honor that promise she made to him long ago and accept even Brenda and all the insanity that is going on right now. While we the fans wish Jason would change and wake up that isn't who he is and it would go against everything Sam loves about him to change. So as frustrating as General Hospital can be lately we have to remember Sam and Jason are being true to their characters and that is all we have ever asked.
Speaking of being true to character, I love Carly and I love how much she hates Brenda because I kind of hate Brenda too. I love how Carly busts Dante's chops and then barges into the penthouse to bust Brenda's little image. All I have to say is Carly take her down, please and do it fast! I love Carly I really do! Brenda needs someone to take her down and Carly you are just the girl to do it. Laura Wright plays this part so incredibly well. Brenda's line to Jason I found comical "That girl deeply wants to hurt me for some unknown reason!" Really Botox does it take that much to remember all the CRAP you put Carly through for all those years. Perhaps all those botox injections are going to your brain! Hell yeah she wants to hurt you crazy Brenda and more power to her I say. I want Carly to take Dante and Brenda down and relish in every minute of it. Dante did the worst thing to Carly by getting Michael put in prison where he will never forget the hell. Let's not forget dear sweet Brenda caused countless issues for Carly and Sonny's numerous marriages. Brenda, really is your memory really that short? You have wronged Carly more then once so no wonder she wants to hurt you. Carly is a force to be reckoned with on a good day but Brenda is just the disaster Carly has been waiting for.
Lucky and Siobhan were cute and I loved Johnathan Jackson's song at the end. Siobhan made one major mistake today calling Jason Brenda's boyfriend at least Lucky quickly squashed that though.
Luke and Tracy were of course one of the only reasons to keep watching today. True to Luke's character he can't wait until he gets his hands on Tracy's money. It's entertaining to watch these two do their little dance everyday. Speaking of doing a little dance, Ethan and Maya are clearly enjoying to take things to the next level. I am just loving the Vegas comedy especially because it seems they have not been infected with the Brenda/Dante virus that everyone else has.
Scrubs were true to character as well today. Lisa was her crazy but calculating self even at Jakes. Patrick was true to his character of being truly sorry for every cheating. I melted when Patrick told Robin, "You are my hero, Robin. You are the only woman I love. I adore you." Oh Patrick if you could only figure out why you cheated in the first place this whole situation would be over. Robin is so incredibly set in her ways which again is so true to character. She might never give in on freezing out of Patrick. But I still have hope for them. Maxie is so mature and wise it surprises me sometimes. She recognized that Matt was the word of wisdom today and called him on it. However, if Maxie can find a way to take Lisa down for good I think it would be most entertaining. Scheming is Maxie's middle name. They should have thought about pulling Maxie in long ago to get Lisa caught in the act.
While I may have lost a few followers today with saying the JaSam scenes were good today, I invite you to comment and let me know how you feel.
Please call the comment line, they need to hear us. Let our voices be heard that we would appreciate a lot less Brenda and a lot more Jason and Sam scenes. Honestly, I wonder if anyone listens to the comment line but I still call. I am committed to the cause and please join me in our fight for our super couple. Call twice a day and thank them for keeping Jason and Sam together and ask for more air time for them. Make it clear that Jason and Sam are the reason we watch.
Something to keep in mind over the next month, Kelly Monaco commented during her PA last weekend that she has not worked much at all lately. So do not expect to see Sam much at all until mid-December. She also said something big is coming up for Jason and Sam and it does not involve Brenda. So just try to be patient and keep telling them we want more JaSam!

Choices
Finally Sam has had enough of Brenda and her snarky attitude towards Jason and their lives together. Brenda is doing everything in her power to be so difficult in the situation and finally Sam has had enough. Brenda's first mistake today was being rude to Sam and Jason by saying Jason isn't much of a talker to begin with. I think that struck a nerve for Sam and she decided she has finally had enough of this entire Brenda mess. I was cheering as Sam finally explained it to Brenda that she can risk her life all she wants but when she decided to involve Jason in all of this Brenda made it personal to Sam. Sam is just not going to fall in line anymore and sit quietly. When Brenda asked Sam if she had ever made a choice that haunt her forever, we all knew the answer to that. Sam looked directly at Jason and they both spoke silent volumes about the choices they both made in the past that have haunted them and their relationship. While our super couple has gotten past ramifications of all those bad choices they are still very painful etched in their memories. Even when Sam is so frustrated with Jason and the situation, Jason still looks at her with so much love in his eyes. I am tired of people saying that Sam was being insecure about Brenda and Jason's special bond. She is not being insecure. She knows Jason loves her but what she is finally being is fed up with the situation of Jason risking his life for Brenda who is not nice or appreciative of Jason. Of course with all this said, Jason has made the choice to help Brenda, Brenda has made the choice to tell him her secret and Sam has made the choice to build a life with Jason. So like it or not, Sam is going to have to put up with this whole situation which has to be the most frustrating choice and revelation of the day for her and us the fans. One thing I would like to point out, Jason was on the docks and I can only hope he called Sam and is meeting her there but we'll have to see how it plays out tomorrow.
Brenda said something today that I actually did agree with though. Brenda's advice to Jason to go after Sam and talk to her was a very valid and good idea. Spinelli and Brenda are right about the fact Jason needs to go talk to Sam. The way Jason and Sam left things today wasn't helpful to anyone. Spinelli learned the hard way even if that person knows you love them, sometimes they could use a little reminder and attention. Maxie was high maintenance but her love for Spinelli was true. I wish they would get those two back together.
Choices were all around especially for our crew in Vegas. As the recounted their wild and insane nuptials from the night I laughed out loud several times. Tracy found the whole situation so amusing. She has escaped marriage to Luke so far and is rather entertained that Maya and Ethan are the ones that are in fact married. Ethan and Maya married is funny and can't wait to see how this all plays out.
Maxie realized a choice she made by playing with the candles had horrifying results. Poor Maxie she was handling the fire so much better when she thought crazy Lisa had set the fire. But now she knows that it was her actions that burned down her family home and all of their memories. I hope Spinelli and Maxie have scenes coming up because while Matt seems to be keeping Maxie company right now, I find him as exciting as dry toast. Matt is too boring for Maxie. She needs someone with a spark. I know Kristen Storm and Jason Cook have worked together in the past and were a super couple but on GH Matt's character is just not compatible with Maxie's for a long term thing.
Sonny is realizing the result of the choices both Claire and Dante have made. Those choices could cost Claire her career as a Federal Prosecutor but I have a feeling she can find a job with Diane and Alexis. Both those two are impressed with Claire enough to hire her on. Sonny has decided that his is hurting Claire and needs to do the noble thing and move on. I am not a huge fan of SoClaire so I am fine with them breaking things off. Sonny belongs with Brenda and the sooner she gets out of the PH the better.

Getting the Wrong Answers
Today was a series of getting the wrong answers. I just knew today would be a clever and amusing day for General Hospital when our opening scene is of our talented and wild crew of Luke, Maya, Tracy and Ethan in a Las Vegas hotel room waking up to a night they can't remember. The comedy element with this foursome is unstoppable. Maya may play the straight sane person among this group of jokers but she is just as funny in her own right as the rest of them. Not to mention, she isn't half bad at a con either. With this group it's always hard to tell how many cons are going on at once. This group got the wrong answer, when they asked who actually got married and found out it was not Luke and Tracy but rather Ethan and Maya. Oh this is going to be fun seeing how this turns out.
Lucky wasn't getting any answers he was happy with this morning. First Siobhan put him in his place by telling him even if she stayed she wasn't going to be just sitting around his apartment waiting for him. I like her already. Nicolas didn't offer Lucky any answers he wanted to hear today either when commenting on Siobhan. Lucky and Siobhan are cute but I ask you this, what will be their couple name? Luckhan? Siobhan delightfully put Colman in his place which was always amusing. I especially liked when Siobhan and Maxie met. Maxie's little ego was a bit crushed when she heard Lucky is seeing her. Lucky Maxie the wrong answer (or rather the answer she didn't want to hear) when he wanted to talk about Siobhan.
Speaking of answers, Dante was not looking for what Jason had for answers for him this morning. Jason felt the need to call Dante a hypocrite and was very justified in doing so. Dante walks around making out like he is some perfect saint but we all know he is no saint. Sam went to the wrong person to question the events of last night when going to Dante. Sam brought some very justified questions to Dante about why he and the police can't handle Brenda but she didn't get the answers from him she wanted either. I don't like Dante but he was kind of rude to Sam when she went over to his place. He grabbed two beers and didn't offer one to her. Oh Dante Falconari you are such a gem. We know your mother raised you better then that this must be habits you are picking up from Lulu.
Jason and Sam's scenes were very brief but so much emotion in them today. Jason makes millions of promises to Sam and never delivers. Our girl should be much more frustrated then she is but she loves Jason so completely that she understands he doesn't always come through on some promises. Sam knows Jason loves her but this situation is wearing on her nerves. Sam is tired of Jason putting his life at risk for Brenda and her drama. I feel Sam is completely justified for these feelings. All Sam has ever asked Jason for is to be honest with her but today he would not tell her Brenda's secret. It killed him to hurt her that way, you could see it on his face. But it was even harder on Sam to hear Jason openly admit he is keeping something from her. When Michael went to Sam when he wanted to know who shot him, she could not keep it from Jason. Sam tells Jason everything no matter what. So for Jason to keep a secret from Sam it feels like betrayal. Jason is keeping Brenda's secret but he doesn't like doing it. Secrets are very touchy topic for our super couple since Jason's big secret with Liz is what destroyed their trust once. But the difference between these two secrets are Jason does not have a personal involvement in Brenda's secret and that secret can not destroy Sam. But no matter what secrets are secrets and Sam is terrified something will come between her and Jason be it prison walls or another person. I hope they are on tomorrow too so we can see how this turns out.
On another note, the dialog was so clever today if you paid close attention. Classic lines of the day:
Johnny and Carly's first scene, his back comment if you were paying attention 'Little early to be visiting the blender don't ya think?'
Tracy to Maya "You should have told me you were a black-out drinker?"
Maya to Tracy "You should not have black mailed me into coming."
Tracy to Maya "You were supposed to keep me sober -FAIL!"
Maxie to Lucky "I am not that easy to get over"

Nobody's Fool
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. We can only hope that saying is true for Sam with Jason. Jason is tolerating his current assignment of having to guard less-then-forthcoming Brenda and work with Dante who he loathes. We can only hope that in the back of his mind he is thinking about Sam and wishing they were in Hawaii in each others arms. In the absence of Sam we are forced to try to find a reason to keep watching these days.
Thank goodness for Luke and Tracy. During the summers when they are not on, I find GH far less entertaining. No one is as amusing as Luke trying to swindle Tracy again and again. Tracy is nobody's fool. My suspicions were correct, I believe Tracy knew all along that Luke was faking it and just wanted to see how far he would go. All her time with ELQ and Luke have taught her a thing or two on how to run a con herself. When you are married to Luke for 5 years you pick up a thing or two. Ethan did a great job at 'coming clean' at the perfect moment too. The only one not a professional con in that group is Maya. She has to be asking herself what she did to get mixed up with this set of jokers some days. I can't wait for the flashbacks of what happened in Vegas. I am glad to see a Ethan and Maya storyline. This one should be good. I hope even though we know Ethan and Maya get hitched they make it amusing. I also hope Luke and Tracy also get married. We need more married couples on GH. Marriage is the kiss of death around Port Charles one would think. The only married couples are Scrubs and CarJax. Now that Carly and Jax are back together Scrubs are on the rocks.
Speaking of Scrubs, I loved the flashback scenes today. Reminded us all what Scrubs is made of. They have developed over years and being an amazing couple. They are strong and rest assure they will make it through this. Every soap couple needs a little angst and Scrubs has had a lot of that recently. I am pretty certain that Patrick will NEVER NEVER EVER cheat again on Robin or anyone ever again for the rest of his life. But that doesn't cure all the pain he has caused. He had begged and apologized but until he can figure out why he cheated, Robin should not go back to him. I've said it before Robin is very literal person. She can not look past the pain of being wronged. Robin has always been rather set in her ways and never willing to admit when she could be wrong. So the fact Patrick has begged and pleaded still doesn't erase what he did in her mind. If Robin does not take Patrick back I think he might start wearing a Chastity Belt and join a convent because he is never going to touch another woman again. I feel sorry for Patrick because he doesn't know what else to do to prove to Robin that he loves her completely and won't ever cheat again. However, this type of dance is classic Scrubs for those Scrubs fans who have forgotten. Let's not forget when Robin was pregnant there was a lot of angst and struggles over if they should even be together. I think all this angst will only help make them stronger. I just hope they move this story along a little because I am getting tired of the dance being stuck on this phrase of the music so long.
It was sweet how Siobhan and Lucky had their quick reunion. If Brenda had not been in the scenes they would have been more enjoyable. Brenda telling Jason he big secret just made me want to turn the TV off. I really didn't care to listen to this whole saga but at least tomorrow is another day in Port Charles. Maybe by a miracle tomorrow Sam will be on.
Keep the faith. Our couple will be on again someday.

Remebering Baby Lila McCall Morgan
With all that is happening in Port Charles this week I am somewhat concerned they will not take time out on Monday (the 6 year anniversary) to remember Baby Lila who brought our super couple together. So I decided I would to my own remembering.
The subject of a stillbirth hits extremely close to home for me. I know the real life pain of such an experience and I also know that type of loss will never leave you. You will never forget and that pain never lessens over time. What is true is you do learn how to move on and live your life. For myself I personally identified with the story since the pain of my loss was very recent at the time. I think that for me it actually helped me deal with my own loss. Everyone deals with loss in their own way. For some the pain of the loss is too great and we turn bitter and angry. For some you realize how fragile life is and cherish every moment. And for many it's a combination of both.
One of the reasons I fell in love with Jason and Sam to start with was the story of baby Lila's birth and death. The way they wrote that story line was absolutely amazing. For so many of us that is when we fell in love with this couple. The writers did such a great job of making it so true it was hard to remember you were watching a fictional character on the screen. I have to wonder if someone on that writing team had not experience a personal loss like that because it was so believable. The pain was so raw and convincing I can't think of a better story line in all the 20 years I have watched the show. I really hope that Jason and Sam take a minute (or even 5 seconds) next week to stop and to think about the reason they got together in the first place. If the writers decide that it is not important to touch on baby Lila next week, I think many of us will be hurt. Hopefully they can take a second away from the whole Brenda/Dante mess and focus on someone else and pay tribute to baby Lila.
I invite everyone to call the comment line and express how much we are happy our super couple is together. Jason may do some clueless things, but we are so grateful they are together again. Keep writing, calling and emailing. Remind them we are thankful and want to see more of Jason and Sam.
Monday marks a very important day in JaSam history - go back and watch the old clips of 2004 and remember baby Lila too!
On a personal note. For those of you who may have dealt with loss and are interested here is something I wrote about my own loss when it happened. You never forget and I hope the writers realize that.
How do you say good-bye to a child who never took a breath
How are you supposed to move on when the child you loved never got to live
For 38 weeks we dreamed of your arrival
We wondered who you would look like more, your daddy or your mommy
Ten tiny fingers ten tiny toes
Every detail of your face was so perfect
You were so still and beautiful
We'll never know why we didn't get to love you here on Earth
You were called home before you even got to breathe
You are our guardian angel
We will miss you and think of you all the days we will be apart

A Past Connection
Jason truly is the most clueless guy sometimes. While sometimes Jason can say all the right things to Sam, today wasn't one of those days. I don't care how solid your relationship is you NEVER tell the woman you love you could not leave ANOTHER woman's side all night long unless that other woman is an ill relative. Brenda and Jason have a past connection which is the only reason she seems to be comfortable with him around during her night terrors. While this is all and good, Jason still does have a lot to learn about relationships and how to treat people especially Sam. Maybe someday Jason will learn. I was glad Jason was angry with Spinelli for messing up and telling Brenda. Spinelli is naive and really does need to stop trusting persuasive women. It was sweet of Sam to speak up for Spinelli (not that he deserved it) but she is always willing to stand up for him.
One of the things I love about Jason and Sam is even no matter how ticked I maybe at Jason's behavior, they are still an amazing team together. Even though it struck a nerve for Sam to have Jason say he didn't feel right leaving Brenda when she was so freaked out. Sam looked past that and started presenting Jason with the facts of the details that things didn't add up with Brenda's story. Jason and Sam are an incredible investigation team.
Oh Diane was classic today. I love when Diane reminds Sonny he needs to be more careful who he sleeps with. Diane's been
I love days with McAbby on. Abby may just be exactly what Michael needs to recover from all of his traumas. She's the only one who makes him smile and their scenes are refreshing to screen.
Oh Luke is up to his tricks and just can't wait until this group heads to Vegas. I've seen a picture of them in Vegas with Maya and Ethan holding them up. It looks truly hilarious.
I am glad Carly is around. Someone needs to call Brenda and Dante on their bull. Oh Carly is going to relishing in this. I can't wait until this happens.
I can't believe Patrick did not go to Emma's birthday party. I don't care how sensitive he is trying to be to Robin, it is not Robin's day. He came by to wish Robin a happy birthday on her birthday. He needs to do the same for Emma. Even if she is only 2 years old, he needs to keep his place in her life. It is wrong that he missed her birthday party. For years to come Emma will see pictures of her birthday party and ask 'where is daddy?'. Patrick you are a terrible father if you think it is okay to miss your own daughter's birthday party.

The Huge Undertaking of Protecting Brenda
Sam said it best, 'No one realized what a huge undertaking this was going to be (to protect Brenda)'. Sing it sister! Even as fans we didn't realize how far they stretch Brenda's drama and who it would infect. Apparently no where in the western hemisphere is safe from the Brenda virus at this point and it is going global fast. Women, keep your men under lock and key because this virus apparently sucks out their brains and leaves them zombies running to Brenda Barrett's aid. Apparently she is so helpless and dramatic she needs a whole army of them too!
I said it yesterday and still feel Brenda would greatly benefit from some time at Shady Brook. She's a loon on a good day but clearly she needs some help. The chick has very traumatic dreams and has for ages not to mention she was pretty crazy today. I get being traumatized by something and not being able to think about it right away but she was a little more then traumatized. She was in her own little world not knowing what was the past or the present. Her mother was insane perhaps the apple didn't fall that far from the tree. Time to check her in and throw away the key.
Sam is the only one that seems to be looking at anything objectively when it comes to this whole situation. Finally someone who is not falling under the Brenda virus. I feel Sam was completely justified for feeling the way she was feeling. She's strong and knows Jason loves her but it's still unsettling to watch the love of your life talking some crazy chick down and then later he is the only one who can comfort her. So as true Sam fans we also need to look at things objectively too. Brenda is clearly mentally not playing with a full deck. The fact Jason is the only one that can talk her down is actually true to the character, he has never bought into her bull but he has always been the one that can get her to be somewhat sane when she is generally not. Jason loves Sam so completely. Jason isn't being considerate of Sam but he is trying to protect Brenda.
Let's just hope Sam doesn't kick him to the curb for neglecting her too much.
Sam is everything to Jason let's not forget this simple fact. While I hated the scene to follow I loved the scene where Jason walked into his room to see Sam asleep. Jason was in deep thought for a minute but then looked over to Sam and his whole world was at peace again just by having her with him. The last scene was awkward for everyone. How would any of us handle that scene in real life? I know that tomorrow's show will be a new day in Port Charles and I am not even sure Jason and Sam will be on tomorrow. I think Sam should talk to Jason about what she saw not to be concerned just to say 'do you think Brenda is okay? I walked in seeing her hugging you last night after she woke us up screaming' would be a good way to start the conversation so Jason would be aware of the fact Sam is still alive and not a piece of furniture. Jason should realize he needs to wake up and actually notice the woman in his life.
Completely on a side note, Why is Jason's bedroom smaller then the gigantic pink room? Also how many freaking pillows does Brenda have on her bed? It took her 5 minutes to get them all off.
How long is it going to take to get Sonny and Brenda back together? I vote the sooner the better for some many reasons. That gets crazy Brenda out of the penthouse and get SoClaire over! Of course I kind of can't wait for Sonny to find out she banged his son. Oh I really hope that blows sky high just because it is kind of funny for Sonny to be the who didn't sleep with someone else for once. Generally it's Sonny's transgressions that cause issues but for once he is the innocent party here. Who knew Brenda apparently has the same problem Sonny does, any time they are in close proximity with someone of the opposite sex they sleep with them. Hopefully Brenda has learned her lesson and doesn't seduce Spinelli next being the cougar that she is now. Don't worry Jason is too old for her these days. She likes them young apparently. Of course Spinelli might not be her type, maybe she is just hot for Sonny's sons...better watch out Michael and Morgan!

Brenda is exploding crazy all around
The first time I saw today's show I was fuming about how the writers made Sam jealous of Brenda and Jason's bond. It took me more then a few hours to go back and re-watch today's episode and take it for as it is. It's important you know I am always a much bigger Sam fan then a Jason fan. As a true Sam fan, I could not fully understand why they would let our powerful kick ass heroine show weakness and jealous like this. But lets try to look at today's show a little more objectively.
First, Brenda is a huge drama queen and the way she was freaking out when she had shot the Balkan's henchman and in the configuration of the people standing around her Jason was the one standing closest to her. So naturally he was going to try to calm her down. Lucky and Sam were sadly outsiders in that crowd and were overall pretty pissed that Brenda was so selfish and had ruined the entire plan. Not to mention she may have completely compromised Lucky's cover and potentially made everyone a target that was standing there. Dante was just a tool and think we all agree with that. Jason has a way of talking people down in general in an intense situation. But I think the hug was probably a little over the top. Jason and Brenda do have a bond that is true but the bond is not romantic and is NOT anything for Sam to get so worked up about. Jason loves Sam with his whole heart and he loves how independent, strong and confident she is. In this particular situation he was trying to defuse the crazy in which we all call Brenda. Speaking of the crazy we call Brenda, I am thinking she might benefit greatly from some time at Shady Brook. For a person who's life with Sonny was surrounded by violence she should be a little more used to seeing violence. Actually it does appear now that the body count is increasing for Brenda, she has broken the law and been in more danger since she left her life with Sonny then when she was with him.
Now to think about WHY they made Sam jealous. This was harder for me to come up with because it strikes a nerve for me. But it is important we remember Sam knows Jason loves her. However, ever since Jason was released from prison he has been spending more and more time solving everyone else problems. It has to be frustrating to watch the only woman Jason has ever legally married to be back in his life (even if it is temporary) insisting his whole world revolve around her and explode all her drama on him. It's less jealousy in the aspect Sam thinks Jason is going to fall in love with Brenda. It is more anger that Brenda is involving Jason in something that had nothing to do with him. Another thing to think about is Sam has been trying to fight the little urges inside of herself that keep telling her she could lose Jason at any moment to prison mostly but that doesn't rule out other factors. Usually she keeps this pretty under control and her logical side kicks in and says everything is okay. Today her logical side didn't kick in right away. Lastly, I really hope the writers don't make Sam too jealous of Brenda because it is pointless. They always need to have some sort of drama for Jason and Sam and this is all they could come up with was a little jealousy. Just another example about how the writing really needs to improve like it was back in 2004/2005.
First, Brenda is a huge drama queen and the way she was freaking out when she had shot the Balkan's henchman and in the configuration of the people standing around her Jason was the one standing closest to her. So naturally he was going to try to calm her down. Lucky and Sam were sadly outsiders in that crowd and were overall pretty pissed that Brenda was so selfish and had ruined the entire plan. Not to mention she may have completely compromised Lucky's cover and potentially made everyone a target that was standing there. Dante was just a tool and think we all agree with that. Jason has a way of talking people down in general in an intense situation. But I think the hug was probably a little over the top. Jason and Brenda do have a bond that is true but the bond is not romantic and is NOT anything for Sam to get so worked up about. Jason loves Sam with his whole heart and he loves how independent, strong and confident she is. In this particular situation he was trying to defuse the crazy in which we all call Brenda. Speaking of the crazy we call Brenda, I am thinking she might benefit greatly from some time at Shady Brook. For a person who's life with Sonny was surrounded by violence she should be a little more used to seeing violence. Actually it does appear now that the body count is increasing for Brenda, she has broken the law and been in more danger since she left her life with Sonny then when she was with him.
Now to think about WHY they made Sam jealous. This was harder for me to come up with because it strikes a nerve for me. But it is important we remember Sam knows Jason loves her. However, ever since Jason was released from prison he has been spending more and more time solving everyone else problems. It has to be frustrating to watch the only woman Jason has ever legally married to be back in his life (even if it is temporary) insisting his whole world revolve around her and explode all her drama on him. It's less jealousy in the aspect Sam thinks Jason is going to fall in love with Brenda. It is more anger that Brenda is involving Jason in something that had nothing to do with him. Another thing to think about is Sam has been trying to fight the little urges inside of herself that keep telling her she could lose Jason at any moment to prison mostly but that doesn't rule out other factors. Usually she keeps this pretty under control and her logical side kicks in and says everything is okay. Today her logical side didn't kick in right away. Lastly, I really hope the writers don't make Sam too jealous of Brenda because it is pointless. They always need to have some sort of drama for Jason and Sam and this is all they could come up with was a little jealousy. Just another example about how the writing really needs to improve like it was back in 2004/2005.
