I really enjoyed Jason Morgan during that first run, when I think of the character, I go back to those years before any other. Though when he came back (in 2002) to me things were just never the same, I remember being more invested in what Sonny had going on. Now I'm not really invested in either now so... I always figured Jason would never get his memories back but I do remember reading recaps of events & older interviews that Steve just didn't want to play that. I figured when they had Jason immediately just start a whole new life, not even miss his old one. That just stood out to me, usually with amnesia stories the characters want to remember their old lives. Jason did none of that, in fact he actively rejected his old one and built new relationships. Like it was mentioned in the post above, I don't think Jason Q would have been somebody Guza & Co. would have wanted to write for.

I'm pissed it took two seasons for Cole/Melissa to get back together and fugly Greg Reardon is there angst. This is annoying. If it was Lance, I could understand since he is still flirting with Melissa. I only have the first four seasons and it's been years since I've watched it. I forgot so many plots. This whole Nazi situation is awful. I don't get the point of Terry and her abusive ex. I think what annoyed me with FC, is that there main players were interesting. Outside of David so far, I have not cared for the newer characters.

Fellow roundtable participant Quentin Tarantino said, "That might be one of the most interesting things said at the table. The power of soap opera actors. That actually is a nugget, and I buy it 100 percent." And he's not wrong. Soap-opera actors shoot multiple scripts in one day, and with the decrease in budgets since the heyday of the genre (the '80s and '90s), there's not often time for reshoots. You must know your lines, be on your mark, and be ready to shoot. There's no time for Method acting or arguing with a director. It's the sort of professional athleticism that Alfred Hitchcock greatly admired in actors. In 1962, during a series of interviewswith François Truffaut, Hitchcock famously referred to actors as cattle. For example, during the shooting of I Confess, Hitchcock didn't get along with Montgomery Clift. According to Patricia Bosworth's Montgomery Clift: A Biography, Hitchock would tell Clift exactly how he wanted him to behave in scenes. Clift balked at the demands and would act how he wanted in other takes, but Hitchcock would ultimately use the takes where Clift followed his instructions. It shouldn't come as surprise that a number of the actors Hitchock worked with — including Farley Granger, John Forsythe, and Macdonald Carey — went on to act in soaps. Russell, who has been known to battle with his own actors on set, is probably just embracing his inner Hitchcock. He even has Lawrence as his icy blonde. And really, is it any surprise that a director who loves a good screaming match and casting Lawrence older than she actually is in every film would love a good Erica Kane soap-opera catfight? http://www.vulture.com/2015/12/david-o-russell-loves-soap-actors.html?mid=fb-share-vulture
