Notes and Comment
GH today was less intense than usual but the nice thing is that everyone turned in a great performance, again.
But why didn't I think of this before?
Set up by Jax's manipulation of the meddling Elizabeth, "Um"ily and Prince Nikolas meet at Wyndemere at night in the gardens. They finally hash out their recent horrible past but there is really no conclusion to where their relationship stands. Is it twoo wuv or is it just friends?
"Um" ily runs around protesting too much to both conspirators, Jax and Elizabeth.
Being a dick, Jax refuses to pay the most sexy scumbag on Earth (well, almost the most sexy scumbag on Earth) to take photos of the Prince and his Princess schmoozin' on the cliffs of Wyndemere.
Honestly, Jax. The guy did his job. You're a freakin' billionaire and you won't pay him for doing what you asked.
You suck.

As my Best Friend predicted, in a moment of BF's not-uncommon genius, Carly gets the Quartermaine controlling ELQ shares out of her estranged husband, Lorrrrrrrrrrenzo Alcazar. Her uncle Luke (yes, that Luke) who has never given her the time of day, expects her to give him the shares. She refuses and will keep them to herself. hee
As BF would say, "That's Carly."

Sonny flies in the magic morphing TARDIS from Port Charles to Hawaii in about 15 minutes and arrives just in time to tell Jason (after a HUGE scotch, neat) that he needs to do the treatment.
Sam, the Weepster cries again.
AGAIN, PEOPLE.
Jason finally agrees as long as Sonny agrees to kill him if he's a vegetable after the surgery.
Sonny does so.
For once the horrid writers on this show played a great and unexpected card.
Ya know? One thing this show does great? Sonny and Jason talking together. I love it. Really. I know I'm probably in the minority. But it just works.
It just does.
============
Little Doctor Robin goes in search of the only doctor in the world who will take on Jason's highly dangerous brain surgery and discovers a highly drunk Dr. Noah Drake.
=============
And on THAT note, I'll dive into a House/GH/Colbert Report meeting of the minds.
Hard to imagine, ain't it?!
Check it OUT!
Way back on Thursday, December 1st, the NYT had a FULL below the fold story about the singer Rick Springfield returning to GH to reprise the role of the inimitable Dr. Noah Drake.
Stephen Colbert (spinoff anchorman of the faux news show "The Daily Report" by Jon Stewart) thought that was so funny that he did an entire report on it. He was freakin' hilarious.
Then, THEN, my little heart (anemic because of the GH/House connection dearth) went pitter pat because there was a later flash of a "back from commercial" banner that read something along the lines of "The actor who plays House is English but he plays an American because you can mess with British Doctors. But no one messes with Doctor House."
I suprised Best Friend with both of these today and she laughed so hard she choked. We had to rewind the splash page.
heh
