Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Steve Burton back when he bothered to make the effort to attempt to act at the best of his ability. Say what you will about Cosby-sweater-wearing Jason, but at least he wasn't an all-around assh0le who had the whole town falling over themselves to kiss his feet. Lucy Coe was the perfect blend of wackiness, bitchery, and heart and I find that that was perfectly captured in Claire Labine's writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Jason said "If I swallow a mouth full of duck. I'd choke" If this wasn't Jason Q. saying that....I would have said back to the TV. Go ahead Jason...Have some duck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 I still wish that they were giving the 1996 episode, as they damn sure could've swapped out one of the dreadful 2000s episodes for it. Hell, I wouldn't have minded if they just aired the 90s Q Thanksgivings, period. I know that Lucy and Scott had a lot more heat, but I have a soft spot for the sweet Lucy/Kevin/Sigmund family.

Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Teen Robin! If I'm not mistaken, this was right before Stone passed away. Those two were the best teen love story in soap history, IMO. Robin and Stone were IT for me, as he was the only one that truly loved, worshipped, and deserved her (in a way that the subsequent two losers that she moved on to never did).

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 The 1997 episode was during Guza's first month of episodes or so back at the show after his successful 1996 stint (which he contractually had to vacate when NBC picked up Sunset Beach). At the time, Guza's return was akin to Christ rising from the dead in the soap press and on early internet soap communities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Thankfully, Wendy Riche was around to keep his ass in line. The day that they fired her and implanted bootleg Janet Wood in her place was the day that GH officially hit the skids (though there were signs that pointed towards that direction over the previous few years).

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Riche's last two/three years were already a downward spiral and not entirely different from what came after she left. I think she was burnt out. Brenda when Marcil's face moved properly! Liz when she was a cig smoking upfront bitch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 The Real Carly! Alexis back when she was still Julia Wainwright-lite AKA her best era on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Queen B! How I've missed her so! Teen Liz (back when she had a personality and a spine). Boy, was her sister boring as hell. As was Nikolas. Back when the roided goiter was actually in shape. Ugh @ fake AJ As much as I can't stand Joseph C. Phillips, his Justus was the best one (though I don't blame him for leaving the show upon seeing the writing on the wall on the direction that his character was going in).

Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 Oh how I still miss the FOTH opening. Loved Carly and Tony showing up together. And, I really loved the ending to that last one where Lucy/Kevin found Sigmund with the other duck! Sigmund was adorable. I want a pet duck.

Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 23, 2012 Members Share Posted November 23, 2012 I'll never understand why Ned followed Lois with boring-ass Alexis. It truly pays to be a friend of bootleg Janet Wood because that's the only way that I can see how NLG's chicken-clucking ass lasted this long on this show. I sure wish that Luke had followed through on his threat to ether the Slagbeast instead of allowing that whore to decimate the show. GH damn sure wouldn't have been in such terrible shape if Labine/Riche remained intact instead of Labine moving on and Riche getting fired. The way that showkiller Guza, bootleg Janet Wood, and Frons gleefully dismantled everything that Labine/Riche worked so hard to build is precisely why the show was/is on life support (and yes, I say that in spite of Cartini's writing being an improvement from the last clusterfuck of a regime). Teen Liz would've annihilated the pathetic mess that her character has existed as for almost a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
