  1. Characters have to die, but a lot of the deaths, especially during her run on GH, were gratuitous and really destroyed the fabric of the show. And for what? It’s absolutely transparent that a lot of the cuts were for saving some cash. It almost always felt that way.


    Aside from OLTL, which was terrible under her watch yet managed to not be *totally* gutted, there’s an emptiness to her shows by the time she’s done with them.

    The article is incredibly stomach-churning, but is a valuable lesson in remembering no matter how much some celebrities may get headlines for bucking the system - they still keep quiet in the face of such malevolent power.

    I’ll definitely not look at Frances McDormand the same way.

    Alan is going to have Nancy Curlee and Stephen Demorest on his show on 7/1. Except crappy questions and a lackluster interview from him, but sharing for those interested:

     

     

    Hey, sometimes these interviews are good in spite of him (especially with folks like Susan Pratt who will *not* be shushed, talked over, or shamed into silence). Nancy is a hero who I haven’t seen a lot of footage of, so I think I’ll actually tune in for this one.

    Hehe. Exactly!!!

     

    Twitter alone...lol.

    I mean, it is the home of S*an C*dy and other similar studios. (Although I hear those guys aren’t as attractive in person.)

    Jax without Brenda and no longer married to Carly is an easy character to say goodbye to.  He’s not tied enough to anyone else left to make his scenes/stories have enough impact.  And I would never subject NLG to having more scenes with him, even though that pairing should have happened back in the day.

    Yeah, I can do without Jax. They should just use him for drop-ins like Mac. (Or just kill him off, which I wouldn’t normally suggest, but I think it could have a lot of story potential, particularly if Sonny or Jason are involved and causes problems for Joss and Carly.)

    To have any kind of villain you need to write a credible character with backstory and motivation, even if that motivation is just "Hey, it's a dog-eat-dog world out there." What IS Justin other than Bill's ride or die? That's no diss on Aaron D. Spears who works hard to breathe life and dynamism into Justin in what little he is given. The problem is Bradley's horrific 'writing.' There is no such a thing as character on this show (ironically, given that character motivation defined B&B in its early years). Every character merely exists as a single plot point. And so it was with Vinny. And so it might be with Justin.

    When you put it that way, it’s kind of absurd we give this show that much thought lol.

  7. I’ve been begging for a black villain on these shows. I just don’t think they care enough about Justin to let him really challenge Dollar Bill and the Spencers (and keep him on the canvas on the frontburner if he does). I hope they prove me wrong, but I wasn’t born yesterday.
     

    It’s funny that the loyal Af-Am sidekicks are both betraying their white benefactors simultaneously (with Carter boinking the owner’s wife).
