Monthly Recap

First of all, welcome back to life Lesley Lu “Lulu” Spencer after she spent the last four years in a coma. 

She has lost a whole lot of things going on whilst being heavily treated at the hospital and later in a clinic (Turning Woods) lately before she had to run away from her newly discovered uncle (Cyrus Renault) once Lulu was finally awake. But at least, she got to see her son again who is now grown as a teenager named Rocco as well as Dante (who also spent some down time with best mate Cody) and also her big family. 

I don’t know what the chances are of her trying to get Charlotte back but there’s a big catch though when you got Jack Brennan having a secret connection with her father Valentin because of the Pikeman business deals, etc.

Shoutout to NZ actor Charles Mesure by the way who plays Jack the local WSB agent & yes, his character does have dark side to it at times – watch out Carly!! 

But then Jack is a bit like Jesper Jacks aka Jax of course when it comes to this chemistry he’s got with Carly together.

Meanwhile, there’s no surprise to see Ava getting away with it following her win at the court house v Kristina, thanks to that ruthless attorney who turned orchestrated her defense in none other than Ric Lansing. 

What that means now that Ava can still see her daughter Avery as Sonny can’t do anything about now to reject those requests. 

Plus, Kristina still upset following her loss with her sister Molly not wanting any of the pain she’s been suffering for far long now including the potential separation of her partner TJ. 

She told him honestly the other day that she does not want another child anymore at the wake of this tragedy as her body wasn’t able to do so on it own after she kept her grief from him – and yet we still see two sisters arguing at each other. 

It’s a shame that won’t go away any time soon because Molly’s dad is Ric and Kristina’s dad is Ric’s brother Sonny unless we would really know who is the better father or not – just gonna leave that there like TJ has done a few times now on Molly.

What else? Drew Cain needs to calm down as why not he sees Scout remotely while in Washington DC? and when he comes back to Port Charles, he can spend more time with her too. But right now it’s not a good look, especially at the expense of Curtis by going behind his back. But then, Michael is also in trouble for his own reasons with Sasha lately & Sasha now carries the baby with his fingerprints on it. 

Kai still having trouble with Trina when it comes to his commitment with the art project they’ve working on together for the school at PCU while prioritising his Football career (not soccer). Even if his next match may not go well which I think what the writers are planning to do, there’s one thing he really wants to go after for sure & that is love with Trina over Football.

Speaking of Trina via her mom Portia, she’s also still not happy with Brad as this was more personal off the back of things Brad has done wrong several years ago that angered Lucas. At the end of the day though, Portia needed to be professional as advised by her husband’s aunt Stella and Brad has got what he wanted thanks to his good work at the GH lab.

And finally, we finish things off with a day to celebrate from Deception Cosmetics during that Home and Heart Infomercial program presentation. There wasn’t much going on until a paid voice actress that Tracy hired has fired up Lois before she stood up for herself and suddenly, it’s raining sales that skyrocketed to an all-time high – I mean, how good!!

Sure you’ve heard this several times Rena Sofer who has been on our Aussie screens for many years when she was on Bold & The Beautfiul as Quinn Ryder on Network 10 before she came back to GH as Lois last year. Glad we’ll get to see Rena again Down Under when this iconic ABC soap will back here also on 10 but only on-demand online next month for the first time in 15 years.

For now, bring on next week with lots of Christmas scenes at Rice Plaza.

Goodbye November/Fall, Hello December/Winter to Port Charles as things are about to get busy and also messy for some but first, let’s look back from the best of November 2024 on General Hospital.

My number 1 moment of course belongs to Holly and Robert having overcame their issues when it comes to their newly discovered daughter in Sasha Gilmore. But hey, that would eventually do the trick when Robert decided to choose Holly for their unfinished business adventures together over Diane – I mean, how sweet!!

Then there was Jason Morgan punching his twin brother Drew in defense of Michael over Drew’s affair with Willow & Jason has done it without saying a single word – less talk, more action.

With Chad Duell now decided to leave the role of Michael, things will definitely change but probably for the worse unless the writers plan to move him out of town — since his grand plans to kick out Drew wouldn’t go well because his one-night affair with Sasha led to her pregnancy.

Lulu back in action right away even when she finally woke up from a four year coma but that’s because the person she first saw was someone who also previously put her in a coma following that floating rib explosion that she was in prior to her downfall.

When it comes to relationships other than Robert and Holly, not so much. Although you can point out the awkward and slow burner pairing between a star athlete and an intelligent student and artist in Kai and Trina. I also know the writers are pinning on Liz with Lucky after some trials a few months ago with the returning Ric, but then some fans aren’t buying the idea again unless it’s Jason. Here’s the word of advice, Liz would be best served as the single mother with her grown boys alone.

Plus, good to hear Lucas Jones being relieved when he thought he made his sister Sam die other than the fact that someone else has organised her medication wrong prior to her death. 

There’s Isaiah sticking around when he was there as a friend to Lucky & sure that will continue with Jordan Ashford on his radar. And Ava continues to be so regretful with her words the whole way through as if she been prepping a few public speaking lessons with Ric ahead of her trial v Kristina, we shall find out the verdict if this would pay off for Ric or not.
