It's well known that Jean and Shelley were the worst writers. Their <cough> retirement<cough> was long overdue. Their records speak volumes.

Another World Discussion Thread
Mike McGavin has been poring over 1960s scripts. He's trying to make the synopses section as comprehensive as possible. He's been adding a great deal to 1967 these days. He reaches out to myself and @jam6242 sometimes with cast information/ help identifying actors other roles. Both he and Eddie keep doing their best to provide everything they receive a place on the site.

Are there soap characters on the same show who rarely interacted?
I understand that. Just commenting in general. I believe there is a Topic already on the board about characters that didn't interact. Most of this was discussed there. Welcome to the board. Maybe look through the topics before creating another topic. That's what most of us do before creating them.

Tidbit: Her first soap role was as Roger's secretary prior to her first OLTL character, Bonnie Harmer in 1978.

I feel like the Victor casting is a little too soon. Run out Cyrus and his mob story (again), and then progress the Peter story while laying the bread crumbs for the Victor arrival. They brought back four characters (Drew, Peter, Cyrus and now Vic) that were allegedly gone in about a week's time, plus the Ryan/Eeyore connection. Postponing the entry of Victor by a week or two would have made more sense. That said, "Schnitzel" kidnapped for love while his goons tossed Scotty off the plane was quite the entrance... Maybe Parking Lot Pete can off Jax down in Agnes Nixon Falls. It's the very least a Juilliard trained actor of his caliber could do. (Can he also drop a mask on the body? Asking for Nancy Grahn and others.) Spencer needs to shake his pilot fish and talk to Trina for a hot minute👿 I need more of the Ava in Scott's room and less of the walking victim act. The only mob wedding I want is Novak and Gladys. imagine Gladys with some money and a little clout?🤣

Yep, I'm very aware of the fifth family know all about it. It's just cheap to keep calling them five families and only adding three dayplayers yet they paid Howarth and kept him on contract between characters. Make it an under five and have him just say "Da". There's not five families if the seat is vacant. Just sayin'. Cyrus attempted to take over a spot-- the Corinthos spot. He was a bystander at the meeting--promptly shut down (hilariously, if I can add that) in May. I almost expected Ms. Wu to ask Carly if she wanted to go get a drink afterward. I add that this part of my post here and elsewhere was just one thing I found funny-referring to them as five when we've only seen four since 2017 and not any sort of major point or endorsement of mob stories. I heard complaints that I was in favor of mob stories, though I've been sick of them for years.

General Hospital September 2021 Discussion Thread
I asked this elsewhere, but have to wonder if anyone here ever noticed the Five Families are only represented by 4 people-- Buscema, Novak, Wu and whichever Corinthos shows up? Is Frank just too cheap to pay a dayplayer for #5? Because he sure pisses enough budget money away on his friends from OLTL. (Did he really need to bring back Sam er Wyatt today? Couldn't the doctor and nurse handle calling an ambulance? Finding the locket?) Been working on a bunch of research so I haven't had a chance to post in a while. @cassadine1991 I could be wrong, but I believe Charlie Prince changed his name to Ashton when he inherited Binky's fortune. Not that he couldn't have a kid that went by Prince, but she would've been born long after he inherited the name and money. Good thought. It would be a nice twist. The whole Austin thing would have been much better if they had put Howarth in the role instead of ever bringing Todd or Franco back. At this point, I just cringe whenever Dr. Manbun appears. The part could have been Mathison's, instead of Jake Dough/Drew.... There would be a helluva lot less smirking... Reversing Drew and Chloe's apparent deaths do nothing for me in regards to Mr. Juilliard's character. He still murdered Frankles on-screen and outlived his usefulness long ago. Maxie should be starting a life with this guy.... Did anyone need a return of Cyrus? Mommie's boy mobster is just unnecessary. There are enough characters with reasons to go after Carly and Jason's wedding. Esme gives me Hannah O'Connor vibes from OLTL. Plain looking actress that's psycho. #firefrank has a type. Looking forward to a Trina showdown with Basic American Psycho. Hoping that the college set brings on at least a few sane characters as well. Since they're going to PCU, they should invest a few dollars in Gregory Chase (Gregory Harrison) to keep him around as a professor. Maybe hire Jackie (Kim Delaney) as a journalism professor. Just random thoughts, but they're already in town. Either let Ryan sneak out and kill some folks (Wallow, Harmony,[I would go all in and kill Sam or Kristina] etc.) or a wedding incident (Wallow,Kristina, Jax). Some dead weight needs to go as they keep casting more new characters. They don't even bother with Kristina, why not? Ingo is easily the most expendable, and pompous Jax that has no problem blackmailing his former stepson, would be a great way to cause a Joss/Carly rift. Sasha/ Brando would be more interesting if we hadn't seen it so many times before (Jason /Sam, Jason/Elizabeth) over safety. Thank gawd for Drunko Gladys giving their scenes a lift. Two good looking people like Mattsson and Wactor shouldn't need his overbearing mom to make them interesting. But she's a godd**n goddess bringing life to a room. It's a shame Burroughs didn't get this writing on OLTL or Days. As much as I love Spencer (Nicolas Chavez has been awesome casting), I can't wait for him to get caught and have some consequences. Humbling him a touch could only add more layers to Spencer's character (along with a verbal smackdown from Trina--) before they end up together again. They are the couple to focus on. The fallout from Wallow/MiniMike's revelation was as insignificant as their pairing. Someone should foreshadow that almost everyone that has been with Michael ended up in the morgue (from Carter down the line to Sabrina). Angry Chase was the only good thing to come of it. Now, can we see BrookLynn and Chase really rev up? I fell asleep twice during the Finn/Liz camping-- Lil' Violet perked me up-- so adorable. NuAiden has some tough shoes to fill, little Jason David killed it on NOS4a2 and did a great job as Aiden. Leo's possible storyline would be interesting, just not in Frank's hands. So Lucas is still non existent? That throwaway line from RoHo about replacing Lucas Jones at his "new" office is a repugnant way to treat a character that we watched Cheryl give birth to in the late 1980s and grow up onscreen. I didn't care much for the block of wood they replaced Ryan Carnes with, but the character at least deserved a going away scene with Bobbie and Carly and Maxie, hell even Felix. Just another sacrifice at the feet of the almighty ham. Joyce Guy had better be heading to Port Chuck when Sonny heads back eventually. She certainly deserves to stick around after those terrific scenes when Lenny passed. Unfortunately Lenny hasn't had a twin brother named Benny to show up. Hoping the family Phyllis mentioned is either Jordan or Portia (leaning toward Portia myself). I'm not that invested in Jason/Carly/Sonny/Nina, just hoping Jason can extricate himself and stick with Britt. Also love it when Scott refers to Liesl as his "Schnitzel". I don't have any problem with Cameron Mathison joining. It just feels like the show has way too many stories trying to be the "A" story. The mob (Jason, Sonny);Austin vs. the Qs; Drew's being alive/Dante and Sam/Curtis/ Finn/Liz and Shawn's search for Hayden. Too many leads. Dante flirting is what I always enjoyed with DZ. He's at his best there, but Sam is just so low energy. Let him work the single ladies like Elizabeth and Britt at darts, the pool table, or a skinny dip at the MetroCourt rooftop pool.
