Okay, so I managed to convince my nephew to allow me a temporary reprieve from our Wii marathon to watch GH last night, and all I can say is that Patrick and Robin's wedding was a total let down. Yes, it was all uber-sweet, but I don't watch soap opera weddings for the syrupy goodness. I watch them for the drama, and this wedding was drama free. No one got shot. The chapel didn't blow up. No one's long lost love crashed their motorcycle through the stain glass window, objected and said that either the bride or groom was still legally married to them, or came back from the dead with a baby in tow. On top of that, half of the attendees at Patrick and Robin's first attempt of a wedding couldn't even be bothered to show for this one. Take Coleman, for instance. I know Patrick asked his brother to be the best man this time, but I'm sure Coleman, the former best man, was still invited. Why wasn't he there? Is his social schedule really that busy? I doubt it, unless he was in Vegas for some kind of annual mullet convention. What about Elizabeth? Could she not find a better time to go on vacation? How about Noah Drake? I know that he and Patrick have been on the outs since the Matt bomb was dropped, but seriously, Rick Springfield couldn't take five minutes out of reliving his 1980's wonder years to stand on the sidelines as Noah and watch Patrick get married? He could have totally sang "Jesse's Girl" at the reception. And what about Jagger Cates? Are you telling me that he could show up for the night shift but not for his oldest friend's wedding? Stone, Jr., autistic or not, would have made a great ring bearer and paid a fitting tribute to Stone, Sr.'s memory.
Anyway, my complaints could go on and on, so I'm just going to leave them at that, and hope that Maxie and Spinelli's wedding, should we actually ever be blessed with that, will be a lot more dramatic.
