Episode 3/5/12

Good:

- Anna scenes -- always good

- Mac screaming at Dolores - LOL (why is she the only one not wearing a police uniform?!)

- Carly and Sonny - Carly left the elevator and the doors didn't close?! hmmm #soaplogic

- Robert & Luke - Good scenes! Well written, acted, and a decent set! (GUZA and WOLF: WATCH AND WEEP!) 

- Maxie - She's in denial, good writing choice RC! She realizes what she has done! Wooo! Will she ever be able to forgive herself??! (hint, hint, YES!)

Okay:
Johnny & "Connie" - Ummmmmm. What? What idiot thought KS would in any way, shape, or form, be able to play this part. KS is literally the worst actress on GH, and nothing against her really, but oh my god, that ACCENT! WTF is that? KS is literally all over the place, I wish we had MW, but I really don't think she could play this part either. BB acting was on key though, he looked genuinely confused at "Connie." Good writing, but still, just no.

Bad:
- New credits (I posted them on YouTube here) - Frank V: What are you thinking? You speed them up 300%, take away half of the cast, and replace the iconic song with some _____________? I really have no idea how to describe that song. It's not really music -- it sounded like a bunch of trashcan lids hitting together, mixed with gunshots and explosions. It can only mean one thing: More Bensonhurst scenes, and more mob violence! (joking, obviously.) Hopefully, as someone pointed out on twitter, they are just temporarily using it until they find something decent (and possibly -- get some sort of positive news regarding the shows future).

- Sonny - Um, I'm sorry, do you have something stuck in your throat? Maurice is an interesting actor for about 30 seconds until you realize Sonny has literally no personality. I wanted to turn it off every time he spoke because he NEEDED TO CLEAR HIS THROAT! Uhhhhh!

- Starr, Blair, and Todd - Okay, I have never been a soap opera fan, but got sucked into watching GH b/c my mother used to be the #1 fan! I never watched OLTL, and on what planet is it okay for RC to come into GH, thinking we know about these characters. I seriously have no idea who these people are, yet I am supposed to feel so bad for Starr. Another instance of good writing, but strange execution.

Overall:
- Really like the new direction that the show is heading! Everything flows and makes sense! The hospital has OTHER doctors in it, and the PCPD has OTHER detectives (who knew?)! However, I still think its going to take a few weeks for RC to settle in, everything is a mess right now because of Wolf, and RC is slowly cleaning it up. The new intro needs to go the way of the Casssandddraaa, and Maggie! Really like this episode though, RC sure knows how to write a cliff hanger!
