Why isn't the Russian guy a long-lost Cassidine cousin? That would be much more interesting. Or it could be Helena in drag.

What is so interesting about Sonny and the mob?

  • Because its interesting when an Umpa Lumpa is a mob boss.

    I wonder if she will be a dead ringer for Jerry's dead Russian lover, or Irina herself, or her evil (LOL!) twin?

    But to rush on to another topic, if that's allowed, I wonder why they gave Logan and the new doc that scene today?  It seems to say that Logan is working for the Zacharas or somebody like them, when he otherwise must hate AZ for calling him a monkey.  And the new doc is already a willing crook?  He seems to have been brought on to do some of the late Ian's work, without their using the late Ian, who was into the fake drug marketThis must be some idea to get going in time for the less important August sweeps month.

  • The late Ian had a part on Army Wifes last week, and it looks like he will be in next weeks' episode too. Thalia
  • I think they gave Logan the scene to generate some anamosity between him and Maxie - who he has not had any issues with or blow ups at all until they decided to have him go after her to super charge things between he and Lulu - I won't say anymore as it would be a spoiler but things are about to get IMO so tragically stupid it is not even reasonable-Sideout

    I hate her already.

  • She is a HE. Russian mafia guy. No matter the complaints, no matter how many viewers tune out because they are sick of mob stories, Guza just keeps spinning them and bringing on more. Every new character, like the new doctor, has to be a crook. Never a good guy. Never an undercover cop or WSB agent or whatever. Surely a city as corrupt and full of gangsters as PC would attract the forces of law and order! FBI? The fact the cops there can't even catch a cold would be enough for an investigation. GHFan
  • He or she, I already hate them, too. :) I haven't watched for a couple weeks now. Can't really see any reason to go back to this crap. eom Elliott
  • LOL, Elliott. Same here. Feel like I have eliminated a great big load of filth from my life. What a sick downer this show is. I wonder what demo they are aiming for? Thalia
  • The gender of the Russian spy. Forgive me my error....
  • Spinelli is a GREAT guy!!!!
