General Hospital: Perkie's Observations


This episode was a bit of a letdown after the past two. I know we can't have verbal smackdowns every day, but everything's been so good, that when a regular episode shows up, it's a little ho hum.

I loved the Johnny and Carly scene. It was very sweet and I like Carly when she's in that nice mode. I also think Johnny should smile more often since it just lights up his face. I just wish he had a better story (or any story).

I loved the Olivia and Carly scene because it really is great, soapy foreshadowing. The two of them making up for Olivia's lie, just as her biggest lie yet is about to hit the fan. That is going to be ugly when it breaks and I want front row seats. READ MORE

James Franco Returns to Star In and Co-Direct GH Special Episode


James Franco
recently spoke with New York Magazine where he revealed he will reprise the role of Franco on General Hospital in the spring. Franco also spilled  he will be co-directing the special episode of the soap. Below is a snippet of Franco speaking about his return. Be sure to check out the full article.

Franco alluded to this addendum to his GH guest stint in a Wall Street Journal editorial published in early December. "After all of the Franco episodes are aired, my character's storyline will be advanced in a special episode filmed in a 'legitimate' New York gallery," Franco wrote. "One more layer will be added to this already layer-heavy experiment. If all goes according to plan, it will definitely be weird. But is it art?"

Fey and Carell Take Moviegoers on Date Night (Trailer)

I'm looking forward to seeing two of America's top, comedic talents, Tina Fey and Steve Carell, link up in Date Night, the upcoming Shawn Levy romantic comedy. Date Night has Fey and Carell starring as Claire and Phil Foster, a suburban, married couple so desperate to spice up their love life they end up involved in one larger-than-life predicament after another, battling crooked cops and mobsters along the way. 

After conquering Saturday Night Live, Mean Girls, 30 Rock and Baby Mama, Fey is more than ready  to take the lead opposite comedy's current "it" guy Carell. The Office star's career has been on a meteoric rise ever since his breakthrough performance in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. Carell and Fey seem a match made in blockbuster heaven. That being said, I'm not sure this trailer does them or the movie justice. Here's hoping the complete film turned out better than the teaser. See you at the opening, front and center.

General Hospital Spoilers!



Here’s the Scoop!

I was on a GH high last week and what always gets me about this show is that I feel like I come down too hard. I haven’t been feeling that high this week and in fact I see a lot of typical repetitive nonsense BUT I’m still hanging in there. I’m not jumping off the bandwagon just yet. Obviously, James Franco has me wondering and the addition of Scott Reeves as Steven Lars Webber has me giddy with expectations. One thing that is definitely keeping me hanging on… Dante/Dominic. Whatever you call him I’m saying Tom Pelphrey who? So much so that I almost gave my roommate a smack across the head when she declared her dislike for him the other day. READ MORE
