Ahhh, can't say I blame you @redwingsgal but, perhaps you could "share" a little in the testosterone dept.?  Remember your GH thread sisters and care and share for what goes around comes around and may some of our GH "hunks" come around here (wherever that may be) real soon.

Not to worry @mysoutherncomfort... Brando's not going anywhere...  Sheesh, no point in being greedy and two should be plenty...

Hey, listen here ladies, when I want to share, I will!  Otherwise, they are all mine!

Well then, I'm afraid you're in for a disappointment because Brando has made his intentions clear and they don't include YOU...

@grandma r  I have the same feelings for Cyrus. I really hate that Jason has to put himself out there as the person who inititated this kidnapping of an infirmed elderly woman. I almost wish he had let Carly run with it but that's not who he is. As Jason said in one of those promos, that's been a line he had never crossed and never expected he would. Obviously Laura didn't expect Carly to do that so if/when it comes up that she put this in motion it could possibly fracture their friendship.

Before Jason or Sonny would have gone that extreme they would have made sure the children were in protective custody, i.e. most likely on Sonny's island. I guess this could be exciting but it's not for me. Want it over.

Yes, I'm there... I just want it over... Not particularly concerned about possible ramifications or retaliations, I just find the whole thing tedious... I'm sure there's another villain waiting in the wings, I'm tired of Cyrus and all the hoopla around him... Just cut your losses and move on... This is tiresome...

Obviously, I don't have the history with this show that some do but I assume, based on some of what I see written here, that at one time this show was not 'all mob all the time'... I'd personally like to see a bit less about the crime wars... More times than not, the 'shoot 'em up' scenes are more laughable than anything else... I had begun to really enjoy this show, but I've found the last few weeks awfully dull... I'll grant you, my attention span might not be the greatest unless it's challenged, but this nonsense isn't remotely challenging it...

I don't care for her character at this point or frankly, for the actress, but Alexis gave a more than solid performance yesterday and the scenes with her, Ava and Nik were some compelling viewing.... Meanwhile, the back and forth between Nina and Jax, as well as between Portia and Jordan were, past a point, fabulous fodder for fast fowarding, as they could easily have been maintained but abbreiviated...

@stevieb , I agree.  Not a fan of NLG at all but she does drunk very well.

The mob stories have been a major part of the show for way too long IMO.  I am just sick of them and the Corinthos family.  Carly and her holier than thou attitude and all her shrieking and the joke that are Sonny and Jason and the unbelievably horrible acting and delivery of lines.  A smaller amount of really good mob stories with decent acting would be better than all this drawn-out high school play type stuff. 

---

I could not agree more, @Wsmom !  There are very few of us who are strong enough to say it out loud, but I am not a fan of the Corinthos family!  I do love MB, LW and SB, however, they are treated as law abiding citizens when they are not!

Also, not a fan of NLG ever!

@Wsmom  @redwingsgal  So I'm sort of there with you guys... Sonny (MB) runs hot and cold... He can be good as gold as with his scenes involving Mike's passing and Dante's return (yea, I know, but he was good in them...), otherwise, he's often marginal. Carly (LW) is, to me, always good, but her character is pushing it right about now toward being completely overbearing... And I've never been a SB fan, having watched him now on two soaps... Personally, I think the 'stone cold' moniker is to excuse his limited acting abilty... Sorry, but just sayin'... That said, his casting in this part, which doesn't require a great deal of range, is probably acceptable... I do have just a tad of heartburn with mobsters being potrayed as heros, but I can go with the flow to a point...

[stevieb]

Liesl, Liesl, Liesl... Don't know what to make of her... My introduction to the character was so positive... Loved the humor... But perhaps this character is best in small doses... Now that she's on-screen more often I'm thinking she might be just a bit too cartoon like at times.... Sort of a bit too Boris and Natasha... but will reserve judgment over a bit more time...

Incidentally, one of the same spoilers that's reporting Leslie's return to answer questions Laura has about her family (which probably implies the return is short-term) also has Sam and Dante pairing up...

Oh  just ew!!  Unless they leave Port Charles together.   Then I'm totally behind the relationship.

[stevieb]

As for Sonny going 'natural', no horse in this race... I will say, Christian LeBlanc, who plays Michael Baldwin over on Young and Restless (that is when the uber challenged writers deign to give him a story...) did so and the initial episode was shocking... Some soap media tried to pass it off as his having gone 'blond', but his hair was clearly white... At first, he was yet another incarnation of Col. Sanders of KFC fame... It didn't take long, though, to adjust to the change...

Hmmm! Whiny and The Click Master.  I stand immediately behind @southern comfort in the desire to see him take the GH elevator never to return but in the meantime I'm okay with him hooking up with Whiny.

Let me say this in advance of needing to: I have stuck by/with Sam for years making allowances/excuses even when others had authentic problems with her character; however she has driven even me away. Once that happens it takes a while to get me back. If ever.

Regarding men's hair color, I always prefer they have their natural color, be it white, gray, whatever.   I think it looks awful colored.  I think the issue is when women color their hair it usually done with highlighting, ,etc., to look more natural whereas men just throw some "just for men" or something on and call it a day so it looks like shoe polish.  I think SB is coloring his hair, too.  

And speaking of hair, did Anna take a sip from the Fountain of Youth or what?  I noticed not only is her hair much longer (I assume extensions) but her face looks so much better, too.   Not that it was ever bad, she just looks more youthful.
