I just seeing this week's episodes (record all week, watch on the weekend) and I have to say I've really enjoyed how Phillip's return has been written. Grant's return has been excellent, and while I believe he's been given good material you have to give Grant all the credit for how he's been able to so seamlessly return to the character. He's had some amazing moments this week - the aforementioned discussion with Alan at his grave about being shot; his initial defense of his father from Buzz only to step back and let Buzz have a punch after Alan's callus remarks concerning Coop (loved the expression on Phillip's face); helping Beth out of her bloodstained wedding dress - all have been first rate and really put Grant amongst the growing group of stellar GL performers. The only story I'ved been FFing through this week is the ongoing M&M storyline - about the only time I can stomach them is when they are part of another story and not on their own.

The only thing that bothered me (and I apologize if this has been written elsewhere) - did everyone know that Phillip was still alive? I expected more shock/excitement as his return spread amongst the townsfolk only to have most of them in on it (thank goodness for Lizzie and Olivia on Friday - their reaction was different from everyone else's 'so glad he's back').

Now that we have Phillip and Edmund back, and a strong nuShayne taking off, I'm all for trimming the cast to tighten up the stories - we can get rid of Grady to start!!
