I do give kudos to Carly Corinthos [Laura Wright] for patiently convincing an increasingly angry Jake of the hard truth that he was Jason and already married so his wedding was not going to happen. But when we hit the half-hour mark of today’s show and still no reveal, it started to get painful to watch – like a snail race. The custody case is interesting, sure, but today was supposed to be about #JasonRevealed. And Anna Devane’s [Finola Hughes] therapy session felt like an evil distraction.
The last few months leading up to the Jason reveal has felt painstakingly slow and starting last week when showrunners slowed the pace of the show down to a rate of one day per week, it now just seems cruelly slow and the wedding/non-wedding will carry on through Tuesday, November 10th. It’s like they’re just toying with the fans now by prolonging the final moments of the reveal. And, the worst is, even after Jake makes his “I’m Jason Morgan” announcement, that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Jake knowing his real name doesn’t change what he knows about himself which is virtually nothing. In fact, the information that Jake does now have will only serve to make him miserable – he knows he can’t marry Liz Webber [Rebecca Herbst] and can’t adopt her boys that he loves so much. It’s doubtful that Jake has even processed the fact that he has two kids of his own that he can now claim. Poor guy is just reeling. As are fans.

We were hoping for closure and this reveal has opened up more questions than it’s answered. This ride is far from over plus we’re heading into November sweeps and after that, Billy Miller is exiting for a vacation break which means Jake will be out of Port Charles for a while – likely trying to sort out his new reality as Jason Morgan. But that’s for then and we have to deal with the present mess for now. So what do you think GH fans? How frustrated are you about the Friday reveal/non-reveal?
