General Hospital\xa0fires\xa0its sole Black breakdown writer,\xa0Shannon Peace. Valentin is revealed to be the Pikeman boss. What is his motives? Are we finally getting the sinister Valentin we were promised years and years ago? Why does Anna think Dex becoming a cop will save him. GH seems to moving a bunch of mob and police/fbi characters into place for what could be a ramped-up mob emphasis. What is Ava up to?

Jordan escapes, again, on\xa0The Young and the Restless. The writing for Phyllis just isn't working. Why is she acting like a teenager? The Cricket/Danny/Phyllis storyline is a dud. Putting Phyllis back in Jack and Diane's orbit might be just as bad. What exactly is Nick doing these days? Where is Sharon? How do you fix a character like Kyle? Could they have made Lily's return storyline juicer? Ashley's storyline makes zero sense, but\xa0Eileen Davidson\xa0is making the storyline watchable.\xa0
