BLOG UPDATE: Joe Diliberto
"Robin's sudden change of heart during the visitation hearing on GENERAL HOSPITAL sure seemed to come out of nowhere. One minute she's girded for legal battle, and the next she's tearfully proclaiming that she Patrick and the baby will make a great family. Patrick got on the witness stand and laid out his standard position mdash; that he used to love life as a playboy, but now he's ready to grow up mdash; but for the first time Robin seemed to hear it. Sure, Patrick was more eloquent this time and didn't become frustrated with Robin's stubbornness, but his message didn't change. I suppose Robin could have been moved by the public declaration, but really, she seemed to overcome her recalcitrance out of the blue, and the change made her seem fickle and insincere. Was she really just plugging her ears and refusing to listen to the father of her child before now, or did she honestly believe he was unworthy? I'd like to believe she wanted the best for her baby, but her character was not portrayed in the best light. But maybe I'm just plain wrong — after all, Noah was...er, singing his praises, too."

  1. I can't seem to find the Rauch story on TV Guide.

    I wonder what that means for Y&R. Rauch sure has many facets to his reputation. Depending upon who is speaking he is either one of the absolute best or a guy who merely thinks he is the best.

    Will be interesting to see Y&R play out what with the merger of Hogan Sheffer and Maria Arena Bell and now (at least the possibility of) Rauch.
