Focusing On The Things That Keep Us Watching

Loves Of A Lifetime

Good morning, GHers.

So much has happened this week, that I could base a telenovela on our lives. My hubby was hurt at work on Tuesday and needed to see one doctor after another this week, we had a family we know go through a terrible crisis, and I am preparing for the possibility of being part of a very painful, but very important lawsuit that would be all about taking a stand against sexual abuse and the cover-ups that happen afterward all too often. I really need your prayers and good thoughts, because I am already dealing with some pretty serious anxiety and panic attacks, and we are weeks away from finding out if it will actually end up in court.

Anyhoo…I finally got to sit in bed last night with my laptop and earphones to watch the week’s GH. It just so happened that the one day there was nothing going on in this family, ABC pre-empted GH in order to show the Columbus Day Parade in NYC. -_____-

What a week it’s been in Port Charles, huh?

From Luke coming home to Duke coming back from the dead…it has been like taking a trip back to the ’80s. I have to admit that I was a little swept up in the flashbacks of the Duke and Anna from  back then. I have always said that flashbacks (from way back when in GH’s rich and fabulous history  – NOT incessant flashbacks of what happened that week) have the ability to tug at our heartstrings like little else can. I also think that for the viewers who have joined GH in most recent years, it’s a great way to show them what the fuss over Duke is all about, and may even encourage them to look up some old scenes.

I found that the head writer I will never forgive for the past year may actually have scored a very small point with me in having all this talk onscreen about Loves of a Lifetime. Duke and Anna, Luke and Laura.

And they aren’t just talking about Loves of a Lifetime. They are showing them in action and in the present in Jason and Sam. I have been very satisfied to see that the story about our missing baby has centered on Jason and Sam, and their dealing with it together. The jerk responsible for tearing our JaSam Dream apart this past year also earned a point with me in that Jason was the one to insist that Sam’s baby might actually be alive, and that he was the one to set things in motion to bring him home. Had it been McBain, I may have lost it.

I also am grateful that in Steve’s last couple of weeks onscreen, he has been all about his wife, and his Love of a Lifetime: Samantha McCall-Morgan. In fact, it has been quite obvious that as far as Jason is concerned, there is no other woman who could ever compare. (*cough, Cough* Liz) If Jason had to leave, I am grateful that he leaves behind no doubt about the woman he chose – the woman he loves more than anything or anyone. Sam was more important than Sonny, than Carly, and Michael, even in the midst of their falling-to-pieces lives. I have waited a long time to see that, and I am glad that I got to see it before Jason disappears from all of our lives.

Watching Jason and Sam bond over the pictures of their son, and watching Jason be there for Sam at every moment has been long overdue, and those moments have melted my heart. Truly, it has been The Beauty of GH for me. Every little thing has made me ache for the moment Jason and Sam hold their son together and take him home as a family. If only all of this had played out long before Steve made the decision to move to TN. *sigh*

I will say that the supporting roles so much of the canvas has had in this storyline has been great – it proves that they seem to get that it doesn’t have to be a wedding or a funeral to get the entire cast involved in something. Isn’t that what happens in a small town like PC?

I am looking forward to today’s GH with more excitement than I’ve felt in a very long time. I am hoping that we get the moments we’ve been holding our breath for sooner, rather than later, but just knowing that we’ll all be sharing it together brings me incredible joy. You guys are an important part of my life, and there’s just no other way to watch GH now.

See you on Sunday morning!

Love you all,

Angelique

    Good Morning and so sorry to hear about the troubles you are having but this too shall pass. Strong blessings for you and your family.
    I’m very happy happy right now with GH and even RC (for the moment) because he finally made it perfectly clear who Jason loves and that is Sam McCall-Morgan; his wife. Can not wait to see this family be a family even for a moment in time. I will cherish that moment forever and may GOD bless Steve in his next venture.. I also want to thank RC for making it clear that Jason loves this baby whether it’s his or not. To me Jason was focused on bringing Sam her baby back because he knew he had failed Sam when he found out the baby was Franco’s and this was his way of getting her to forgive him; and he also needed to forgive himself and make up for this mistake which would lead to possibly getting his wife and family back.
    I can’t think of any better motive than that for a man who loves his women. Thank you RC (for now anyway)..and thanks for finally ending that pesky Liz questions. HAHA! NO Liz! Jason DOES NOT LOVE YOU AND DOES NOT WANT TO BE WITH YOU!!! LOL!
    Now maybe she will go chase another man and leave Jason and his wife alone..

    I will keep you & your family in thoughts & prayers. I too am eager to finally see Jason & Sam bonding with baby. Just not looking forward to Jason’s last scene. I know it will be tearful event that only Steve & Kelly are able to bring to my tv.

    I hope things get better for you. And always grateful for your words of wisdom.

    Angelique, thanks for a great blog with all that you have going on in your life. I will keep you in my thoughs and prayers. What a great week on GH!!!!Just wish it could last but Steve has left but we have a week left to see him onscreen and we know they will be reunited. It was great to hear Jason call Danny “his son” and “our son”. He does love the baby!!Hopefully before he departs he will know the baby truly is his. I’m so glad it was jason to stand by Sam and keep up the digging into the birth records. And he is with her on the roof,not McBain!!!!On a happy note, I’m seeing Steve Burton tonight in CT.!!!Can’t wait!!

    Thank you for the time you took out from your own personal crisis. I just wanted to send you my prayer and thoughts for you and your family.

  5. Well you know and your Amazing family own my HEART for a LIFETIME. So Support Love Prayer and Blessings is with you EVERY DAY!!!

    Now as for the AIC who obviously yes KNOWS our COUPLE. Know how deeply and completely they LOVE and FOCUS on each other in a crisis and is giving me the bread crumbs of what could have been a great story…IF ONLY he HAD BOTHERED to tell it!!!

    Love that for 3 days we have been RIGHT at the Hospital and Nurse Irrelevance is NO WHERE in STALKING, Annoying, Clinging to False Realities sight!!!

    I actually miss having Carly Sonny the Davis Girls and Quartermaine’s being a part of the SEARCH, the FEAR and the HOPE for Daniel’s safe return. Since ANNA was too busy with *Dead Duke, Stolen from Tracy Luke and Missing Bird Calls…..

    It would have been amazing for Max/Milo and the boys to be searching for the baby at every SEEDY Motel they own. For SPINELLI to actually use his Cyber-skills BETTER then he did for the Balkin or Frakin Franco. IF Maxie had shown any remote interest in someone beside herself and how Spin’s love life EFFECTS HER! For Sonny and Carly to help Jason and Sam find their SON like they did for them when Michael and Morgan were missing EACH TIME…

    I SOLELY lay the blame for all of this at the feet of STEVEN LARZzzzz… if I were the court you would have your medical license revoked Mr. Murderer who Doc Maggie died so Heather could protect you. You would be in jail for the assaults on Luke, Anna , and Poor Olivia that were caused because SUPERVISING the NUT JOB does not mean she roams around town in search of BLT’s and Mayhem while you do nothing but BUTT into your WackaDoo sister’s IMAGINARY Love affair.

    And while there is a SPECIAL place in HELL waiting to ROAST Heather Todd and Johnny. Sam and Tea should have the chance to POP mulitple BULLETS into all THREE until Daniel Edward Morgan runs out of CLIPS in his nursery bag!!

    As a watcher of OLTL yes I feel badly for TEA…but as a Jason Sam Daniel FAN FIRST AND FOREMOST……I don’t give a crap about you, your screeching or how badly you deserve the chance to Beat TAWD until he coughs up his own Floating Ribs…..You should never trust a man who stole and SOLD his own SON to get back at his WIFE. Who is a 3 time rapist, supposed Mother, Brother Killer and who cares about no one before himself, his mirror and his own hand stroking ego!!!

    I have loved this week of GH. I am excited for NEXT weeks even MORE. But we had to lose our Mob Man Hero and watch our couple destroyed for Ego’s, Power Plays and for 2 obsolete characters (John and Liz) that should be reading for Pilot season not lingering and stalking every storyline in attempts of finding one of their own.

    As of 10/22/12 that will be what I look back on and will NEVER forgive….

    So sorry to hear about Nelson.. Wish you would have said something when we talked.
    I have been loving GH this last week it has been a very long time since I couldn’t wait to watch. Today was so good I can’t stop watching.
    Is it Monday yet.. Wishing away the weekend so I can see Jasam get THEIR son back. The Jason I fell in love with was all over my screen today.. I loved him fighting for HIS son.. Now I have to go watch again!

    Love and prayers to you and the family.

    Hi Jasammers (no truer were spoken today)!
    Hi Angelique Thanks through the mist of Life taking the time to do this Blog on a Friday! You like us all have been in a whirl wind of ALL emotions as GH came to life this week!
    It has been a long time since I could not take my eyes off the screen!
    From the sl about Jason,Sam and Liz to Jason being hero to his wife and son! This week and last had me smiling even though its bittersweet! To have no doubt about how Jason feels about Sam and THEIR son was a Victory for all of us who Love this Family!
    Bittersweet……………………our Stone Cold is almost gone! As I reflected on this amazing Couple I came to the conclussion Jason would do anything for Sam! The day she walked into his life changed who Jason Morgan was. She brought him out of the darkness of his mind,heart and soul! Sam MCCall-Morgan was and is the only woman for Jason Morgan. How her Love for him changed who he was is such a wonderous thing! Love will do that if given the chance! I am SO glad Jason was the one who figured out about their Baby! It needed to be Jason it had to be Jason nothing else like so many other things on GH lately would have added up,made sense!
    I will say this I am greatful so far how this S/l is wrapping up! I am greatful that Sam will KNOW without a doubt that Jason LOVES her and only her! Sam will also know that Jason LOVES her (their) son there will be no doubt about that! What he did for Sam is the ultimate gift! Jason gave Sam her son back! Needless to say Sam has given Jason a son with no strings attached. Even though it looks like Jason will not know that Daniel is HIS son before 10/22/12. BUT in his heart and soul Daniel is HIS SON allready and I am happy about that.
    The best part about GH lately………………….it did not have to be wriiten the way it was! I do not know why RC gave us so much No Liz,No John
    No doubt that Jason and Sam LOVE each other.They are each others soulmate! I wonder if the outrage over SB leaving triggered something at ABC! I wonder if this is what SB wanted all along and he was willing to do anything even walk away to get it! SB and KM have been through everything and then some to be together as Jason and Sam. There union simply took your breath away! And to have them so out of Character for so long was sickening to watch! If Jason and Sam have to be at an end (sort of) at least they are ending knowing how much they Love each other AND THEIR SON! I will be back later I have to talk about todays show!One more thing it is a wonderful thing to read how many people will only say see you later to SB/Jason Morgan and not Good bye! How his departure how brought out the best in most of us! How he and KM KNOW without a doubt how much they gave us in Jason and Sam and how we appreciated every single moment!
    Jasam Forever!

    • I had the pleasure of seeing Steve Burton on 10/12 when he came to Trumbull,ct. It was the start of his farewell tour:(. He said the baby story line is playing out the way it was meant to. Nothing was hurried because of his leaving. The only thing changed is his exit! So I guess RC/FV always meant to bring Sam and Jason back like they said! We fans are so upset by the way they did it! Last few weeks have been great! I,too,can’t wait to see them hold their son!
