I was flicking through the channels and saw Kirsten as Maxie on GH. And that got me thinking how much I looooved Kirsten as Belle and how much I don't accept Martha in that role at all. I've completely hated the Belle character since Kirsten left.

Anyway, that got me thinking of yesteryear and how much I used to love Shawn and Belle as a couple. Now, not so much..I prefered Jason Cook's Shawn with Mimi. And I hate Belle now, so I didn't mind that she was with Philip (even though Philip belonged with Chloe).

Nothing against Martha--she was great as Lola on Passions. But she's no Belle, and she never will be.

Kirsten was ok for a teenage Belle but for Belle with a child? No. Plus, the fact that she has been aged.

Kirsten was never a good actress but her subpar acting was enough to get by as a teenage character, much like Jason Cook's was. That could never work now. Martha rocks and is a emmy-caliber actress. Brandon is awesome too. They have made Shelle into a viable and rootable couple and are perfect for the grown up, mature Shelle.

Kirsten even sucks at GH and she is supposed to be playing a adult role there. I still hate the fact RR lost HER role for Storms. It's disgusting. The best decision Corday ever made was not letting Storms return.

Well, let me ask you this: Who would you rather have as a mother: Kirsten Storms' Belle, or Charity Rahmer's?

why does that matter? Charity Rahmer was fired and is out of the equation. Try again.

Charity Rahmer. Whereas Kirsten would just be annoying, Charity would be pure comedy gold!

Rahmer and Storms were pretty interchangable. Both looked pretty, but god help us all when their mouths opened.

I still think it's rather funny how Days was at the time searching for something identical to Storms to replace Belle with, and picked Rahmer. Shows what Days really thought Storms was worth.

What's amazing to me is that they actually picked Charity Rahmer over Martha Madison in the first place. I mean, who in their right mind would honestly think that Charity was more fit for the role and the more talented actress? Someone in the casting office must've been smoking some good sh!t that day.

I'm glad that K. Storms is no longer on DAYS & that she's on GH. She plays a MUCH better Maxie Jones than her portraying Belle Black. She's very lucky that she escaped the wrath of James E. Reilly & Ken Corday! LOL

Frons, Guza & company are finally utilizing Storms after her being wasted with Officer Jesse & taking a back seat to her on-way-too-much annoying sister, Georgie. Since Jesse's death in May 2006, Storms' acting has improved. Storms is not a great actress, but she's doing very well with the material she's given in the Maxie/Lucky/Elizabeth SL. I can't wait to see where this SL will lead to next! There's so much potential! There's even been mentions of Felicia Scorpio & Frisco Jones lately. Will it turn into "something"? I hope so!

She has a chance to be nominated for a 2007 Younger Actress Daytime Emmy Award, but even if she's nominated, Storms has NO chance of winning this year. (I should clarify my statement: Storms DOES have a chance of winning this year if she's nominated. Never forget Natalia Linvingston in 2005. NEVER! LOL!)
