I think it’s quite telling at how on the ball Driz has been regarding Jake and Jason.
Meanwhile, Danny is still pretty much in the dark - he’s a smart kid, knows something is up but Dream haven’t said anything to him.
And I’m not buying the whole, it’s probably because Jake is older excuse. Liz was the one that pushed for him to know the truth.
Sam isn’t pushing for Danny to know the truth. I thinking that is telling, she’s conflicted because if she told Danny the truth around the same time as Liz did then it suggests that she isn’t conflicted, she’s 100% chosen Drew or she’s 100% chosen Jason.
I don’t know, something like that. I just find it telling that Liz is quick to tell the truth to Jake and in a way that isn’t insulting to Drew. Meanwhile Sam isn’t, she’s delaying the inevitable.

I feel like in an AU where Nikolas and Emily were still alive and the twins were raised together, the couples that I would want together would be Nikolas/Emily, Jason/Sam, and Drew/Elizabeth.  I also think that AJ and Britt could have been a good couple.

Would you want Liz and Nik again if TC came back?
haha  yes and no, i have to rewatch when nik returns again BUT he and liz have always been messy. Liz totally loves Nik but is too scared to make that step AND her loyalty to lucky even tho he’s gone. so nik and liz have this dance then it kinda ends and they just friends (remembering driz/hayden era lmao).
i feel like the niz romantic feelings are always underneath the surface. but they are just too scared to dip in. if you wrote it well i think it could fit. Niz was always interesting to me and yeah the affair was messy but it made sense in a weird soapy way??? i feel like people don’t like it cuz they are stuck on LL which you could go that way but from LL writers have wrote Lucky/Liz never survive a mature adult rl. It’s mostly rooted in teenage years. Whereas Liz and Nik been friends since they were teens but SOMEHOW has adults there is a mature, genuine, honest, protective friendship there but also a romance (attraction, lust, electricity) that could thrive if you gave it a chance. They seem bit more compatible. I like Lucky at times especially watching back when he was younger but if you asked me I prefer Liz with Nik more.It’s MESSY but in a still watchable way imo. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
literally,,, nik be like fuck cousin Sam (remember that time he almost threw Sam's ass off that balcony when she was trash talking Liz and nik was going thru that shit skhjksdh) when it comes to lizzie lmaooo and he had Hayden shot so Liz could live her fairytale with Jason???? And Liz didn’t agree with Nik having Hayden shot but she still stood by him?? They were trash human beings in that storyline but that’s when I knew MR AND MRS CASSADINE WOULD BE GOOD. JESUS LIZ WOULD ENTER WYNDERMERE LIKE SHE WAS MRS CASSADINE MY GOD I MISS THOSE DAYS JSHJHSKLSH. LITERALLY NIZ  >>>>>> LIASON 
but here’s the thing with the team we have on GH rn they wouldn’t write it good or even GO THERE. People hate on Ron’s era but at least Liz was leading sls AND he didn’t ignore shit. With these writers It would just be more Nik with Ava or Nina or some shit like that and Liz just propping Franco sjkgjksgkjhjks. 
so its a yes and no for me...

Sam rolling her eyes at the fact Franco now thinks he is Drew is such a mood! Lol And given how desperate Kim was to have a baby & Lucas pointing out the obvious that Kim has never really been as committed as Julian is to her, I won’t be surprised is she does run off with Franco even though he clearly isn’t Drew he remembers her & loves her which is what she wanted from Drew when she first got to PC. Liz will be left alone again when they should just make Driz again
Same. lmao. Sam really was a mood in that moment! Oh, spoilers basically hint at that with Kim apparently finding comfort in her past. lmfao. And you know, magical healing cock and magical baby you can turn into the child you lost heals all wounds(Kim's just...fucked up and I hate her).  Honestly. Liz is gonna get screwed over. I mean...if Kim stays and she ends up pregnant, there will be a child with Franco's dna there which complicates matters.

REVIEWING THE CHARTS: 17th March 2019 - Dave’s ‘PSYCHODRAMA’ Edition
We have six new arrivals this week, not because a lot of interesting pop releases but because of Dave’s PSYCHODRAMA. This album is fantastic, and is currently one of my favourites of the year; we’ll get more into that later, but I didn’t expect it to have this much of an impact. Since the UK only allows three songs from each artist on the chart, if we have three new arrivals from one artist and one album, I’d consider that an “Album bomb” even if it’s not as big as most bombs in the US. Anyway, let’s get into the top 10, where you wouldn’t really realise anything changed.
Top 10
“Someone You Loved” by Lewis Capaldi spends its second week at the top spot since gaining the position last week.
Calvin Harris and Rag ‘n’ Bone Man’s “Giant” also has not moved since last week at number-two.
Neither has Mabel, as “Don’t Call Me Up” has not budged from its position last week, still at number-three.
Ariana Grande’s “break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored” is still at number-four.
Sam Smith and Normani have a slight boost up two spots with “Dancing with a Stranger”, back at number-five.
Down one spot this week is “7 rings” by Ariana Grande, at number-six.
At its second week on the chart, I’m shocked that the Jonas Brothers actually climbed one spot with “Sucker” at number-seven. Will this actually have some longevity?
Oh, and now we have the first of three new arrivals from Dave’s number-one album (Two of which are in the top 10), with “Disaster” featuring J Hus debuting at number-eight, becoming Dave’s seventh top 40 hit and his third top 10; It’s J Hus’ fifth top 40 and his second top 10.
At number-nine, we have “Streatham”, another track premiering from PSYCHODRAMA, becoming Dave’s eighth top 40 hit and his fourth top 10. I figured “Black” would return last week but I was wrong and due to chart rules, that can never happen.
Oh, and “Just You and I” by Tom Walker is down two spots to #10 but that song is painfully uninteresting.
Climbers
Off the debut last week and the album boost, the only noticeable climber this week is “Don’t Feel Like Crying” by Sigrid, moving up 14 spaces to #20, making it Sigrid’s second Top 20 hit.
Fallers
We definitely have a few more here, as “Shallow” by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper collapses 11 spaces down to #23 after a short rebound period, “How it Is” by Roddy Ricch, Chip and Yxng Bane featuring the Plug is down nine spaces to #27 off the debut (Let’s hope it goes away pretty quickly), “Think About Us” by Little Mix and remixed by Ty Dolla $ign (Who I’m pretty sure isn’t actually serving those 15 years in prison for cocaine possession) is down seven positions to #29, “Nothing Breaks Like a Heart” by Mark Ronson and Miley Cyrus continues its gradual plunge down eight spots to #35, “Kitchen Kings” by D-Block Europe decides to stop wasting everybody’s time as it’s down 10 spaces to #36, and finally “Bally” by Swarmz featuring Tion Wayne is down eight positions to #40 off of the debut – Why does the most charismatic of this sickly faux-dancehall UK hip hop fail to catch on?
Dropouts
First of all, some long-running hip hop songs have had the UK chart’s typical streaming cuts leading to their untimely fall, such as “Going Bad” by Meek Mill featuring Drake out from #23 and “Advice” by Cadet and Deno Driz out from #24. Otherwise, we just have a few songs barely still hanging on lose their grip, like “thank u, next” by Ariana Grande dropping out from #36, “Leave a Light On” by Tom Walker dropping out AGAIN from #37 (Let’s hope this one is for long), “Thursday” by Jess Glynne out from #39 and “Breathe” by CamelPhat and Cristoph featuring Jem Cooke out from #40.
FEATURED SINGLE
“King James” – Anderson .Paak
Produced by Callum and Kiefer
If you follow me on Twitter, you’d know I’m pretty obsessed with this guy. Anderson .Paak is someone I’m sure you all know, but for the sake of introductions, .Paak is a Grammy Award-winning R&B singer, rapper and musician, specialising in drumming as his instrument of choice. He dropped the great Dr. Dre-produced album Oxnard in November, so when he announced his counterpart album that had less input from Dre and a sound more reminiscent of his older Malibu album from 2016, which was funkier and more soulful, would be releasing in April of this year, with features from people like the late Nate Dogg and the rare appearance of André 3000 from OutKast, I was hyped, and it’s safe to say that this lead single doesn’t disappoint in any sense of the word, mostly because it seems like a perfect mixture of both albums. It has the rich instrumentation of Malibu alongside the soulful backing vocals from a small choir – of mostly other multi-tracked Anderson .Paaks – that back up .Paak’s politically-themed lyrics from Oxnard where he talks about how if Trump builds a wall, he’s jumping over the fence, with a groovy bassline that characterises both records. The lyrics take a similar side to 2 Chainz and his album Rap or Go to the League, as .Paak salutes LeBron James for his charitable acts and how this can uplift the black community. The music itself is a fun, jazzy romp including some epic trumpet blasts and I love the random whistle blowing that definitely adds a perfectly fitting Afrobeat influence to the beat, relating to the Afro-centric content, and I thought this would be a sure-fire hit, but it doesn’t seem to be doing as well as I thought it would. That’s not an issue, though, because unlike the “Tints” lead single off of Oxnard I don’t think this was made commercially and was instead a gift for the fans missing his more traditional sound. This is fantastic, check it out.
NEW ARRIVALS
#39 – “Robbery” – Juice WRLD
Produced by Nick Mira – Peaked at #20 in Belgium, #27 in the US
Juice WRLD. Oh, Juice WRLD. Real name Jarad Higgins, Juice WRLD is a emo-rapper and now international superstar off of the song “Lucid Dreams”, and while I don’t see why “Lean wit Me” didn’t catch on instead, it happened and now Juice is bigger than ever, releasing his 22-track album Death Race for Love – it has a runtime of one hour and 12 minutes, with only one track being an interlude, and two other features – both of which are awful – hidden in the tracklist which is a polluted ocean of trashy Juice WRLD tracks where he moans over type beats. You’ve got the black hole in place of his soul on “Empty”, the fact that he even dared to call a track “HeMotions”, the borderline country rap effort “Flaws and Sins”, Young Thug on autopilot with “ON GOD”, and overall, it’s a pretty exhaustingly terrible album, with a pile of some of the most questionable lyrics I think I’ve ever heard. Somewhere throughout his light 2/10 album, there are one or two tracks where his nasal whining actually reminds me of his influence, notably the 2000s emo-pop trend. “Robbery”, his second Top 40 hit, is the best of the two: the piano melody is melancholy yet catchy and Juice WRLD yelling on the track without much noticeable autotune but a lot and I mean a lot of reverb, multi-tracking and vocal edits that do nothing because he still sounds awful, but I like that because it reminds me of those singers back in the day who really couldn’t sing so they just kind of yelled in their nasal voice and it worked – hell, it works here because he quite literally ties his vocal performance in with the content, because as the video further proves, this song is probably about Juice WRLD interrupting a wedding whilst drunk to moan about his ex-girlfriend publically in front of all the guests, with some lines that make clear-cut reference this like “And now I’m drinking too much, so I’mma talk with a slur” and the pretty hilarious one-liner “I love to do drugs, so mind my manners”. In the first verse, he talks about how his father told him to “flex on a hoe” every time he’s insecure, which is advice he takes and hence he tries to sing with as much soul as he can (And as much as he has, which is very little), about how he put Gucci on the fuuurrrrr and he put his wrist on iceberrrrrrrg, but nothing can compete with that pathetic hook that is yelled as if it is the most profound freaking chorus ever written.
She told me put my heart in the bag (In the bag), and nobody gets hurt (Nobody) / Now I’m running from her love, I’m not fast (Fast) so I’m making it worse (Making it worse)
“I’m running from her love but I’m not fast so I’m making it worse”. Yeah, this really is a flashback to the lyrics that the later scene or emo-pop bands would spout off, equally nonsensical and equally embarrassing, but I still love it because it’s the one Juice WRLD song that knows why emo was appealing in the first place, or at least the poppier nonsense that kind of sucked in retrospect. This is “The Curse of Curves” by Cute is What We Aim For over a trap beat, change my mind.
#33 – “Boasty” – Wiley featuring Idris Elba, Sean Paul and Stefflon Don
Produced by Mucky
So “Boasty” is a song released by UK grime rapper Wiley in August of last year, and it’s recently got a single push for the remix featuring dancehall legend Sean Paul, known for how seamlessly he crosses over to the pop scene with features on songs like “Rockabye” – also the dude seems omnipresent in society and I kind of love having this one person that isn’t in his prime but is still here being entertaining. Seriously, I miss Lil Jon. Stefflon Don is an XXL Freshman of 2018, and she’s a pretty cool rapper although her big hits so far have been pretty dreadful, especially “Hurtin Me” with that hack French Montana. Idris Elba is a very famous actor with an OBE in fact, but I wasn’t necessarily aware if he was known as a rapper, but he does seem to have a side job as a DJ so that’s something, although this is Elba’s first crossover hit. Wiley on the other hand has a #1 hit under his belt, this song being his thirteenth Top 40 hit and first since 2013. This is Sean Paul’s, who also has three #1s, 27th UK Top 40 hit single (Which is an insane amount) and Stefflon Don’s third. So what about the song itself? Well, it’s pretty boastful to say the least, but I expected that, and I didn’t think the lyrical content would be anything to care about. I kind of love how dumb this beat is, it sounds like a video game and after one measure just has a bit of a seizure with so many sound effects playing at once, and when Sean Paul ad-libs over that part, it’s hilarious, but the song isn’t charming or joyful enough to make up for odd mixing, a lazy hook and some simplistic flows from Stefflon Don... until Sean Paul’s verse... because I never thought I’d say that in my life, but Sean Paul absolutely bodies this song, with a great flow and not much content but he rides the beat excellently, seriously, can this dude actually RAP-rap more? Idris Elba is kind of funny, I guess, and I love how his verse is introduced with the freaking airhorn sound effect YouTubers used for MLG parodies a few years back, reminds me of Drake’s “Forever” in that respect, although in that song everyone wanted to one-up each other while here, it’s just Wiley organising a cypher between three rappers, all of which speak in semi-Patois and semi-British English throughout, that seems pretty fun although the main bassline doesn’t really have enough power to really bump this up to great for me. It’s cool, though.
#26 – “wish you were gay” – Billie Eilish
Produced by FINNEAS – Peaked at #7 in New Zealand and #59 in the US
Billie Eilish, huh? The emo-lite girl who makes odd, somewhat Gothic pop music that does feel quite maddening yet somewhat immature and sometimes underdeveloped, which I can mostly blame FINNEAS for, although I do like his often experimental approach to producing catchy pop tunes. This new song was first revealed when the tracklist for her album WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO? was announced, and I was initially sceptical – although to be fair, I was also sceptical of the track names “!!!!!!!!”, “ilomilo” and “my strange addiction”. The song has since been explained and is instead critical of herself and her ignorant teenage beliefs instead of being as problematic as some Twitter users seemed to think (Although I’m not going to rule out Eilish using this story to deflect criticism). Apparently, it’s about Eilish when she was 14 years old being madly in love and since the boy didn’t respond or feel mutually, she hurried to think of an excuse for that so she wouldn’t feel bad for herself, hence, “wish you were gay”, and, I mean, it seems okay. I think the acoustic guitar strumming is nice yet I’d argue the instrumentation, crowd cheering sound effects withstanding, is a bit generic for Eilish. The trap-influenced percussion in the drop is nice, I suppose, but it doesn’t hit nearly as much as the menacing “you should see me in a crown”. I think overall this is just a complete re-tread of what Eilish has done before, as both her and her brother FINNEAS are on complete auto-pilot here, and I am somewhat disappointed, especially with the janky writing during the bridge. It’s about a minute too long, I’d say, as well, it really drags on for no reason and I feel this is definitely album filler that got rushed out for another single release. It could possibly grow on me, though.
#11 – “Location” – Dave featuring Burna Boy
Produced by Fraser T Smith, Jae5 and Omoregie
Now, we have the three remaining new arrivals, all from Dave’s album, PSYCHODRAMA, so I’ll try and blast through them pretty quickly. First, we have Dave’s ninth top 40 hit, “Location”, located in the middle of the album and probably my least favourite track, although that definitely doesn’t mean it’s bad by any means. The beat is just pretty generic, mostly because it is the one track that is rooted in that faux-dancehall style from people like AJ Tracey, although it definitely has more to it than songs by people like Tion Wayne, due to the sweet vocal sample and the distant trumpet blasting in the background which I actually really appreciate, at least there’s some effort into making it sound different from its contemporaries, and while Burna Boy’s chorus is pretty boring, everything I love about Dave is still here, despite him being on auto-pilot and definitely sounding just as tired as Burna Boy, when he says he’s a playboy who doesn’t need a Carti (Ha, ha). Yeah, there’s not much attempts at wordplay here, as there isn’t throughout the album but he usually has a blunt, emotional and no-nonsense delivery that he actually does present in the second verse, before these cool synths kick in for Burna Boy to deliver his verse or bridge or whatever you want to call it, I wouldn’t call it anything other than a waste of time that kind of sounds like a British Ty Dolla $ign without enough of the polish. It definitely isn’t the best track on the album, but isn’t bad, just in that safe ‘okay’ range. On the other hand...
#9 – “Streatham” – Dave
Produced by Rogues, Fraser T Smith and Omoregie
Now we’re in territory that can lead me into talking about the album as a whole, because it’s presented as a radio interview with some British radio presenter asking about his life as a black man in England and evaluating his answers, of course given through song, although because of the name of PSYCHODRAMA, I’m tempted to believe that the conversations being had between the presenter and Dave are conversations between himself and his psyche when he wants to express himself on the track, and that each question the “Presenter” asks is an idea of what to write about, presenting his music as not only a stress relief but a way of improving communication with your own thoughts, almost as if it were a relaxed therapy session with a chilled British dude and a posh Radio One presenter. “Streatham” is not my favourite track on the album, that would go to either “Black” or the 11-minute epic “Lesley” featuring Ruelle, but it is close, mostly due to the multi-tracked vocal sample that starts the whole thing off, and I think is a better opener than the actual opener because it presents the same menacing yet introspective atmosphere the entire album uses, especially in this song as it focuses on his childhood and how far he has come from the southern London district he went to school in, talking about how he’ll never remember the day he found his girl who he now has a baby out of wedlock with as said in the second verse while constantly being pressured by both exams and... naked pictures from other women, I guess. The chorus and flow is pretty catchy throughout and the switch-up of the flow in the second verse to adhere to the suddenly added synth that enhances the already glistening pianos, keys and especially the violins that make the song feel grander than it probably should be considering its grimy content (Also referencing Ramz for some reason in wordplay that admittedly falls pretty flat, although the lines straight after more than make up for it with some triple-entendres). Also, I love Dave’s “Look” ad-lib. Just saying.
#8 – “Disaster” – Dave featuring J Hus
Produced by IO and TobiShyBoy
It’s no surprise that the song featuring a chorus from J Hus, who is one of the biggest UK rappers as well as currently in prison for holding a 10cm blade, would be the most popular out of all the tracks on the album, especially since Dave reserved J Hus’ feature for the token absolute banger on the track listing. The beat is pretty simple, with a really nice, upbeat synth that just kind of plounds its way through across some static, before the 808s kick in and J Hus’ interestingly mixed hook comes in (He doesn’t have a full verse for obvious reasons), with a falsetto that’s so amateur that it’s almost cute, I’d say, especially when he says he’s “Smiling like a nice person”. Then Dave comes in and bodies it with some of his best flows and rhyme schemes on the album, especially when trading bars with J Hus throughout, both of which are just bragging about their current lifestyle, with J Hus especially bringing some really violent personality, sometimes borderline yelling. The synth melodies are absolute hypnotic and Dave and J Hus ride it like it’s nothing, with the iconic “Think (About It)” vocal sample appearing every few bars. It’s a pretty simple track, with a pretty simple flow, but some of the greatest personality and charisma in UK rap, especially J Hus’ occasional bars in the verse that are delivered insanely well. The chorus is hilarious as well, and although I feel like it ends too abruptly, I think it’s already at a perfect length, especially since that verse seems like it’s never going to stop, it’s pretty mesmerising.
Conclusion
Best of the Week goes to Dave for “Streatham”... as well as “Disaster” with J Hus, but I don’t really consider this a tie since it’s an album bomb. Honourable Mention goes to Juice WRLD, and I can’t believe I’m saying that, for “Robbery” and I suppose Worst of the Week goes to Billie Eilish for “wish you were gay” but it’s only by default because it’s the sole weak offering here in a pretty great week. See you next time.

I read an article saying that Liz and Kim could be a threat to Sam’s marriage as their connection to Drew deepens.
And while, I’m for it, I do worry that they might make Drew fed up with Sam’s indecisiveness regarding Jason - like he doesn’t feel she’s completely closed to the past so he develops feelings for Kim or Liz.
I think it’s important that IF JaSam unite, that Sam picks him.
The only reason I’m not confident is that last year Frank Valentini said in an interview last year that they wrote Sam and “Jason” as soulmates - but they could argue that they were talking about Killy’s characters and not JaSam. Since I think the question was worded when talking about Sam and Billy, and at the time they didn’t know that Steve was returning so it could be open to having a spin on it by the writers.

Is it bad that to spare Jake the heartbreak I kind of want Drew and Jason to do a son swap? So Drew has Jake and Jason can be a father to Oscar.
Because Hudson killed that scene I feel bad for Jake, Drew and even Jason who wasn’t in the scene because Jake doesn’t want to know Jason at the moment.
Although Drew did sound a little sucky when he said to Jake “I don’t know what he wants, what he has plans for” like Jason has an ulterior motive.
Also, after this scene, I need Driz to reunite more so all the Morgan-Cain-Webber kids can be related. So Jake won’t ever have moments of insecurity regarding Scout. While Jake knows that Scout is still his (honorary) Sister, as he gets older him and Scout might drift apart because he’s understand the situation with The Two Jasons more.

Thoughts?
I’d take it with a pinch of Salt. I’m not saying that they make stuff up, but they aren’t 100% reliable, a lot of the time they are speculating and theorising so it could easily happen.
I just remember when Celeb Dirty Laundry wrote an article regarding Jake Doe finding out that he is “Jason“ and that when he found out, Patrick and Sam would already be married and that Sam would tell “Jason” that he‘s Jason in the middle of the Liason wedding. Then the article treated Liz as the victim and Sam as the villain going “How dare she be so selfish and tell Jason who he is? Why can‘t she let Liz be happy, she’s been waiting years for this? She already has Patrick, she doesn’t need Jason!” It was very Pro-Liz, Pro Liason and Anti-Sam, Anti JaSam.
The spin on it was ridiculous because regardless, Liz was in the wrong, she was purposely keeping his “identity“ from him, trapping him, not giving him the chance to make a choice. It was wrong. And it still is, even though Jason turned out to be Drew, she was still taking advantage.

This Two Jasons storyline is going to cause my stress levels to skyrocket.
Tumblr media
Like I really want Steve to be Jason, he is Stonecold and Steve and Kelly are what made me fall in love with JaSam in the first place, and while Billy has been good, it just isn’t the same. I enjoy him, and his partnership with Sam, but he hasn’t been able to replicate the relationships that Steve had, like with Sonny and Carly or his relationship with Michael. Now this isn’t at the fault of Billy, part of it has to do with writers, while other parts just have to do with history. Billy just can’t replicate the history and friendship that Maurice (Sonny) had with Steve that was clearly shown on General Hospital.
But if Steve is the real Jason, I just don’t see how JaSam could work. Sam wants different things. She wants out of the mob, she wants Jason out of it. Especially since NuJason wanted to distance himself from it, she’s had a taste of life without the mob and she has a son and daughter - and I just don’t see Steve’s Jason leaving the mob - maybe it will change because he wants that second chance with Sam.
Also I fear that they might do this Two Jasons storyline and shut up both JaSam and Liason fans by giving them a Jason each. Which is weird. Frank Valentini said in an interview that JaSam have been written as soulmates, so I can’t see how Sam could not end up with original Jason because they are similar characters, both adrenaline junkies - they just get each other.
But at the same time, what does this say about them being “soulmates” if Sam didn’t realise that “fake” Jason wasn’t her Jason. However, at the same time, Carly didn’t recognise that either and she arguably has a stronger bond with Jason.
But someone did make a good point, where if the actual drama if Steve isn’t the original Jason? Him being Nikolas is fucked up because Sam’s cousin would look like the love of Sam’s life causing weird GOT issues. But if he is the original Jason, while it might seem unoriginal, there is more drama since all these characters have moved on with NuJason while he’s been kidnapped. Sam has had another child with Billy’s Jason.
Sam just has to end up with real Jason (and I do want that to be Steve) but also I can’t see how NuJason could be with Liz if he turned out to be fake, because he will still remember that ugly, manipulative side Liz has, she purposely kept quiet about his “identity” and tried to trap him. She decided to keep him from his “family” - not just Danny and Sam, but Monica, Michael, Morgan, Sonny and Carly. She decided that Danny wasn’t worthy of knowing his father. 
But I just can’t have Steve paired with Rebecca. It brings back the ugly memories of 2006-2008, all that OOC, bad writing of Lucky and Sam to make Liz and Jason seem like the good guys and the ship “acceptable” when in reality it was more complicated like that. Plus, I genuinely don’t see the chemistry between the actors, I tried. I just can’t. Plus the reason why they broke up in the first place, still remains the same. Also, Jason brings out the worst in Liz. She becomes hypocritical, acts saint-like while making mistakes. She tried to get Sam and Jason divorced by keeping Danny from them, she played god with Danny’s life. She tried to trap Jason in 2015. I could go on. I’m not saying Sam’s perfect, she’s made her mistake. But Jason brings out Liz’s worst side. I liked Lucky and Liz but the writers screwed this ship up years ago that I think Liz either needs someone new or someone that has done equally bad stuff like her and accepts it.

Liz/Jason
Tumblr media
Yeah. I don’t ship it. I’m not however just going to bash on this ship.
Here’s the thing, I’ve never seem Liason scenes from their early days, in the 90s/early 00s and according to @fictionxlover they were really sweet. While scrolling for a decent gif, I did see a early one which I’d admit is cute, even if Liz’s hair wasn’t. 
However, when I was first introduced to Liason. It was 2006 and the 2006-2007 storyline. So you can understand why I don’t ship them or struggle to like them. Firstly, I don’t feel the chemistry like I do with Stelly’s JaSam. But second of all with that mess of a storyline. I just hate how they rewrote Sam and Lucky and ruined LnL2 and JaSam to accommodate for Liason. Then of course in 2007, when Sam and Lucky both had legitmate reasons for breaking up/splitting with their other half. They then had to villainise them in order to validate and accept Liason even though these two were having an emotional affair beforehand.
This mess of a storyline really made it hard for me to like. I generally can’t ship ships that have to make characters OOC in order to prop up the ship or to make a ship work.
It also doesn’t help that various writers don’t know what kind of character they want Liz to be, half the time it’s the ‘maneater’ Liz, does bad shit, then the other half it’s the Angelic Liz and all her bad actions are excuse with little punishment or validated.
Now here is the objective part:
Clearly, Liz and Jason have a bond, they are forever bonded through Jake. However, to be it’s the kind of bond he has with Robin and Courtney. Not an endgame bond. A big issue with Liason I think is that Liz doesn’t technically accept or want Jason for who he is. She likes the image of this bad boy with a tough exterior who is soft on the inside and will do anything to protect those he cares about and saves the day. But ultimately she wanted to change him, she wanted him to settle down, not be a mob enforcer and settle down with the white picket fence. Liz always seems to want excitement and interesting in the now, but long-term wants to tame him. It’s odd because I feel like the reason she cheats is because Lucky was too dull and dependable which is why she goes for complex, exciting men but in Jason’s case, she wants him to settle down and not be a mob enforcer still. 
I think the Jason Liz wants is the Jason that Billy turned out to be. He has the skills and past of Jason Morgan, the mob enforcer but he became a strong family man and quit. He stopped being ride-or-die. So I wouldn’t mind Driz happening in the future because I do feel like that is the kind of guy she wants. However, this could change once we know who Drew is and his personality. They might not work anymore. Friz, however is a no-no.
So overall, I don’t ship it. I think the writers made a mess of any potential with the 2006-2008 mess. Then the Jake Doe stuff - even though it turned out to be Drew, it’s still a mess. I hate how with Steve! Jason that he continually looks at her with rose-tinted glasses, like when Liz kept the fact that Danny was alive. While I personally feel that Jason makes her a bit guy crazy because of that. I prefer Liz when she’s not after Jason because of that.
Put a pairing in my ask and I’ll tell you if I ship it or not
