My longest workday of the week was even longer than usual this week 
(same will be true, for the last time, next week). So I basically just 
got through soaps:

soaps: Tues' ep's.
    GH - Geez. Booby Vista is playing one of the most unpleasant 
characters I have ever seen! - She has, like, no redeeming qualities: 
her character is a harpy of a stage mother, and spends the entire 
episode hectoring Maxie into trying to say something negative about 
Brook Lynn... Dumb Willow unknowingly catches Drew and Nina together 
after their second session of "hate sex", which they conceal from 
Willow, and Willow takes it as a sign that Drew and Nina have buried the 
hatchet and that maybe Willow should forgive Nina too! Later, Nina 
discusses her "hate sex" sessions with Drew with Maxie... Olivia hires 
Sasha to be the new family cook, and Sasha and Cody are more "couple-y" 
now... In the episode's best bit, Jason "debriefs" Dex about Sonny and 
Pikeman, and then Jason and Anna figure out that Valentin has been 
running Pikeman and that Valentin has been lying to Anna this whole time 
- so Anna is going to go "under cover" with Valentin to "sting" him!
    DOOL - Marlena interrupts a "Pawn" session between Constantine and 
John, and afterwards Marlena and John figure out that something is up 
here, but they aren't sure what. Earlier, Marlena runs across "Everett" 
(it was pretty clearly the "Bobby Stein" personality) who dismissively 
ends their professional relationship (how is Marlena not suspicious 
here?!!), and then seems to slap the make on a very suspicious 
Stephanie... Chad follows up on Nicole's "tip" about Paulina's 
questionable actions while under radiation quarantine, but she kind of 
stonewalls him; later, Chad quizzes Julie about it - I think Chad has a 
real story here. Chanel is sick, and a worried Paulina and Johnny take 
her to the hospital (I'm now wondering if, in a twist, it will turn out 
that Chanel is preggers!).

I put "Chicago Med" on, but paid it no attention, so I could not tell 
you what happened.

I then had "Chicago Fire" on - Violet gets Severide to offer Jocelyn 
Hudon's character (Lyla Novak?) a permanent paramedic gig, but Novak 
turns it down; at the end of the episode, Violet again pitches Novak on 
signing up to stay at "15" permanently. Meanwhile, a new "floater" 
firefighter catches Kidd's attention, but the dude is a sketchy "fanboy" 
of Severide, et al, and he seems to be up to something. Other stuff 
happened, but it wasn't important.


What did you watch?
