Members Khan Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 I am just amazed at the compact size of the regular cast in that photo. Even now, with budgets being slashed everywhere you turn, it seems as if the shows (and GH in particular) keep taking on more and more performers. Allow me to echo Carl's welcome, depboy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 (edited) Just realized that 20 years ago today and yesterday was the beginning of Monica's breast cancer storyline Edited August 3, 2014 by cassadine1991 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 Yet one more reason Charleson/Damon, separately or in tandem, could absolutely knock it out of the park given decent material. They both should have won Emmys for that story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 Right now, I could use a good story where Monica, now widowed, faces a recurrence of her cancer without Alan by her side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 That's a good story idea - and maybe she could be visited by visions of Alan, urging her to fight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 So many missed stories with Monica. Sonny is her arch enemy as of the end of the 1990's. A good writer/EP would play that up. What if Sonny was shot in the heart, and Monica had to operate on him. He has a blood clot during the surgery, is saved but has a stroke. Sonny is compromised, Monica isn't sure if she did everything she could, or if she cares what happened to him, and begins a journey to fill that house and herself with life again while Sonny is fighting to either give up, or try to win his life back. A story neither one have had before, with stakes and both characters not being compromised. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 I would've seen that instead of that drivel with Rafe/Silas/Patrick 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cuzIsaySo Posted August 3, 2014 Members Share Posted August 3, 2014 I wish they had done something with Noah and Monica when Monica initially started having alcohol problems following Alan's death. Since its been established that Noah started to spiral downward following Patrick's mother's death, Noah could have ended up her sponsor and a relationship could have developped... further tested when Bobbie returned with unsolved feelings for Noah and a Alan's lookalike showing up in town and revealed as realAlan down-the-line. (At this point i would take Stuart Damon back regardless of how stupid the storyline so Im down with a switched lookalike story) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted August 4, 2014 Members Share Posted August 4, 2014 Not utilizing Monica as anything more than an extra sucks! With all of her potential storylines as a widow...especially the cancer story, I just don't understand what TIIC are thinking. What about a return for Mike Corbin, Sonny's father. I know Ron Hale retied, but it's been long enough to recast. Imagine Monica and Mike getting together and Sonny becoming [gasp!] family! Too many missed opportunities, too little time. For long time viewers[ like the 1970s], I was reading recaps from 74-78. Does anyone know the character names of Kira Faulkner's mother or Mary Ellen Dante's father? They apparently were in their respective children's storylines[ Kira wanting to have children with Steve Hardy, and Mary Ellen trying to kill Terri Arnett]. Any ideas? Thanks for any help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted August 4, 2014 Members Share Posted August 4, 2014 Great job, depboy. John Bernadino was also part of the 1948 Cleveland Indians team that won it all - the last time my home team did so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cuzIsaySo Posted August 4, 2014 Members Share Posted August 4, 2014 Did Phil Brewer had any children? Because i think it would be a nice nod to history if his grandchild or something showed up on the GH staff 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
