Yes. And of course as JFP reminded us, she was the reason fans even cared about Maureen! I wish she'd just said outright that Ellen Parker was let go to help throw money at Justin Deas, Marcy Walker and Robert Newman.

They needed much better background music and also better editing - just seems like a lot of random scenes. And sorry to say the Javi bit made me laugh.

Rick wasn't on the show at the time, but when he returned that could have been some good drama if he found out, especially as I felt like they were implying he had fallen in love with Eve while she was dying. The biggest problem with Maureen's death is that it was done just to have a death, to try to shock viewers and manipulate them. There was no care. The whole thing was cheap. A few strong scenes doesn't change that. And viewers picked up on the game. I think that's why there was little trust in JFP from then on, at GL or on her other soaps.

EastEnders tried this about 11-12 years ago, as one of the leading ladies, Denise, began drinking heavily and struggled to cope with being sole carer for Patrick, who'd recently had a stroke. She began abusing him and he tried to keep quiet about it. The story was dropped early on and has never been mentioned since, which may tell you about fan or network response to these types of stories. Emmerdale also did this story with Ashley Thomas and his father, Sandy, but they did this because they wanted viewers to hate Ashley to pave the way for his wife being with another man (which did not work and just made a lot of fans angry).

Thanks @SoapDope78

Thanks so much @dc11786 for finding those rare episodes and @Franko for the dates. I can barely log into here anymore or I would have said this yesterday. Babbin made even more changes than I realized. I don't think a number of them worked, but the show was so moribund and lacking in any identity (admittedly the show never really had an identity until its last few years), I can see why she did what she did.

I think he's one of the biggest wastes of potential I've seen on Corrie, beyond being yet another negative stereotype of a bisexual male. I have heard he was popular on some other show but I can't see any real talent in his work on here. Not that he's alone in that...

That story also told viewers that being sexually abused makes you a serial killer. I will never forgive that story.

Which was a lazy, damaging story. Was she the one who recast Jack and Isabelle, got rid of Cabot and brought back Shana? I don't think it would have mattered but I would be fascinated seeing their output. I think Loving's very murky first years were impossible to escape from, even if the show found some touchstones for viewers through Ava, Trisha and Stacey.

I suppose they just want to get anyone they can and maybe they think she has fans from her other soap roles. I sure as hell don't know what in her AMC run could be promoted.

Thank you for the latest recap/review @alwaysAMC I knew India moved away from Ross before she disappeared, but I couldn't remember if he ever learned about her money troubles. I also didn't remember the scene with Philip and Annie. I'm surprised the show brought them back together after Rauch quickly killed the pairing building between them. An Annie return would have made more sense in some of Philip's upcoming storylines (far into the future upcoming...).

I'm very happy for you in getting to meet one of your icons.

Thanks so much @slick jones Angelica Nero...were her parents Dallas fans??? I can't get past that photo with Nancy Barrett and Shirley Knight. What a trip.

About an hour and 2 or 3 minutes in there's an episode from April 25, 1990.

Thanks so much @janea4old really appreciate you going through and telling us what we missed.

I think they both resented still being in daytime at that point (or if JFP's case, not having real power the way she had at her other soaps - although like Guza she also seemed to dislike the basics of soaps), and both seemed to have a heavy disdain for women. Then you have Guza's teamup with Tony Geary, who had so many toxic ideas. When the whole Liz rape story first aired, I felt like too much focused on Lucky, and then Luke. There were some very moving moments with Liz, Bobbie and Audrey to balance that out. I would give most of the credit for the balance to Wendy Riche, as when that story was revived with JJ's return and Lucky's nostalgia for Liz bleeding in the snow post-rape, I sensed zero female point of view, although given how close MVJ is to Guza, I am aware she would not agree.

Carl is one of those guys where I hear about how attractive he's meant to be but the actor does nothing for me - the lack of charisma and any seeming talent doesn't help. Maybe he was better in his other work. I find it especially annoying that they decided to try some kind of "shocking" sleazy bisexual reveal, only for no one on the show or in the audience to even care.
