I loved today! Jason and Sonny used to be as close as family to the Spencers, including Lucky. I loved these scenes today. When GV was on, I would see a scene between Lucky and Jason and even if Lucky were being nice it always seemed he was being competitive. JJs Lucky is just so confident it doesn't matter if he's smaller or younger looking he just seems to hold his own. I thought his concern for Carly was odd because it's not like they are ever at family events together but I hope the writers are trying to shift that so I'll just accept it like a good little soap viewer. Technically, Carly and Michael are Spencers and I think the writers are reminding everyone of that fact. I hope that means we'll be seeing a bit more of Bobbie in the near future. I love, love, loved the fact that Lucky wasn't spouting out the same self righteous drivel he's been spewing the last few years. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. The real Lucky is back!! |

Quote Devil-or-Angel: Yes, today's Lucky/Jason scenes were great. I loved every second of them. However I'm not completely convinced that it is all in the writing...Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the writing hasn't improved or changed because of the actor in the role. (And I'm not saying that GV was a bad actor, because I really liked him as Lucky and I've liked him in other shows I've seen him in). I just think that more than one thing comes into play. Yes the writing seems better, JJ's style of acting and talent comes into too. But do you think it our own perceptions also have a part in that change too? Not only does this Lucky LOOK different, but to me this is not the Lucky that did drugs, cheated on Liz, etc. etc. etc. This is THE Lucky. I went into last week expecting things to be different, and they are. But are they really that different or am I just seeing what I want? By the same token, I'm having a lot of trouble believing that this Lucky is old enough to be the father of two or that this Lucky would so easily forget and accept Liz betrayal/lies about Jake... Am I the only one who wonders if things are really different or if it's just a matter of seeing what I want to see??? Regardless, I did love today's Lucky scenes! You have some good points about the differences in the actors. It's kind of confusing to me b/c they were both either written so differently or portrayed so differently, I'm not sure which yet. Each actor brings his own stuff into the role. ITA about having a hard time believing that he's old enough to be the father of two and IMO the facial hair does NOT help that, if that's the point of it. However, I still enjoyed Jason/Lucky's scene today, it was great. What I really liked about it was that Lucky wasn't the hothead he always is to Jason. |

That was refreshing wasn't it?!! It seemed to me that Lucky used to almost snarl at Jason and rub it in his face that he was Jake's "father." That was not even close to the case today!! |

They are finally writing, Lucky as a man who can hold his own, the scene between Lucky and Jason was great, he didn't have to get excite to get his point across, the cool suave cop, hat's off to JJ |

And I came to the conclusion that they are great actors that put alot into their craft, not a lot of actors can deliver not just their lines but their skills. |

This definitely feels like a completely different Lucky to me. I've seen recasts in soaps before but never such a glaring contrast. It seems to me like they made a conscious decision to rewrite this character for the actor. JMO. |

Generally, I try to refrain from talking about what the actors might think but, in this case, I wouldn't imagine Jonathan Jackson would come back to play Lucky the way he has been written over the last oh-so-many years. |

I am completely and wholeheartedly TEAM Lucky!!!! I really liked GV's Lucky. I never watched the JJ years as Lucky and was a bit nervous when he was brought back. I was really excited about seeing him on Oct. 27 and was just blown away! I fell in love with JJ's Lucky. I loved his "Remember me?" There were so many cheesy lines but JJ's delivery made my heart melt. I was squealing when he said, "That's why they would call me Lucky." and "I feel Lucky tonight ... did I just say that?" |

There were so many cheesy lines but JJ's delivery made my heart melt. I was squealing when he said, "That's why they would call me Lucky." and "I feel Lucky tonight ... did I just say that?" I love everything about JJ's Lucky. And JJ has grown into such a handsome, sexy man. Okay, I don't like his beard, but that's okay. He really is a man. So confident, secure, sweet and loving. I agree that it seems like the writing for JJ's Lucky has changed, but I really am not sure. I think it has more to do with the acting. JJ's Lucky is really different. GV's Lucky always seem to have a chip on his shoulder. In his scenes with Jason yesterday, JJ's Lucky had disdain for Jason and got in a few jabs, but Lucky was not petulant and insecure with Jason. Lucky seemed confident around Jason. He could see Jason's POV but he also didn't waver in his belief that it would be wrong for Jason to kill Claudia. You could see that JJ's Lucky was thinking about whether or not to believe Jason would try to save Carly and the baby first and kill Claudia as a last resort to save Carly. I think that JJ's Lucky saying that people will do anything for family is a hint of what's coming up. ********* SPOILER TALK ******************** I don't know if anyone else has read this spoiler and I can't remember if I read it on soaps.com or not, but Lucky is suppose to shoot someone and with NL leaving GH, I wonder if Lucky shoots Rebecca. Lucky suggesting that he would kill someone if his family was in danger makes me think that Rebecca will find out about the Niz affair and go after Liz or maybe Nik, so Lucky shoots her to stop her. There is also spoiler talk about a party at the HS and that's when Lucky finds out about the Niz affair as does everyone else. I am so sick of the Claudia s/l. I guess there's two more days of it. I for one am so happy that that sorry little s/l is over. I want to see more Lucky, Liz, the Spencers, Helena. I am psyched about Steven Lars returning. I would love to see Steven Lars and Lucky being really good brother-in-laws with Steven Lar being supportive of both Liz and Lucky when the Niz affair comes out. I don't want him to take sides, although Liz is his sister. I would love to see Lucky have a new BFF. Does Lucky have any close male friends? It would be great if Patrick and Lucky became close friends. Lucky needs a couple of BFF. My vote is for Team Lucky/Dante |

Am I the only one who wonders if things are really different or if it's just a matter of seeing what I want to see??? Regardless, I did love today's Lucky scenes! Oh this is great DOA! I missed Jason and Lucky's scenes (one's I was looking SOO forward to) but I would imagine they were amazing. As for "would this Lucky have forgiven Liz regarding Jake," hmm that's a hard one because if we are going to compare what GV's Lucky did compared to what JJ's Lucky WOULD HAVE done, we have to look at the WHOLE picture. Would JJ's Lucky have been on drugs, would he have cheated with Maxie, would he have manhandled and talked down to her (which all got the ball rolling to Liz going to Jason's that night, therefore getting pregnant), would he have accused Liz of having something to do with Jake's kidnapping, would he have cheated with Sam? It's hard to compare the two or just take one scenario out of it without adding in the stuff Lucky did as well. Do I think that JJ's Lucky would have forgiven Liz about Jake, yes actually because as we see, he is STILL doing that right now. Do I think that JJ's Lucky would have done all those things to Liz to begin with, I don't know because he wasn't playing Lucky then BUT they are still a part of the history of the storylines. I do believe you are correct though, that we see what we want to see because it's JJ. He was a fan fave for 16 years (10 of which he wasn't even on the show) so people WILL perceive his scenes differently than GV's were. To some, ONLY JJ will be Lucky so they will accept his behaviour because of the actor and allow the past to be gone because of the actor. I personally still think that Liz and Lucky should get away from each other romantically FOREVER because all that stuff DID HAPPEN and bringing on JJ will not erase that for ME. I was one of LL2's biggest fans when they were teens and I would have thought they would be together forever but Lucky wasn't Lucky after JJ left and the magic was gone. They tried and tried and tried to re-create it but they couldn't because they re-wrote the character and all that stuff DID happen so they should just leave them in the past and show Liz FINALLY move on from Lucky and Lucky FINALLY move on from Liz. Let's show Lucky be JUST LUCKY and have these amazing scenes with those he had great chemistry with in the past...TG, SBu, TC, GF (if they were to bring her back), JZ (if they decided to bring her out of the closet), etc. Liz and Lucky could still share scenes because they do have kids together BUT they don't NEED to be romantic to be great in scenes together. |

I wholeheartedly agree that Lucky and Dante would make a great team. I can't believe that I forgot to include Dante. I would love to see Lucky and Dante team up as partners. Dante could quit the NYPD and join PCPD. Lucky and Dante would become BFF. With Dante hooking up with Lulu (hopefully!), Lucky would be BFF with his sister's BF. The characters are suppose to be around the same age as well - around 27. |

I was afraid that the scene between JJ and Jason would have been a little akward today because of young looking JJ playing the now Lucky character, the cop. I feel that JJ is cabable of handling himself just fine. Welcome back Jonathan Jackson...you may be the answer to the war. I think that depends on those that feel that Liz should be with Lucky or not because MANY still DON'T. MANY feel that LL2 is OVER and don't want it revistited. A war is created by US, not the actors playing the parts. |
