Lulu & maxie on GH, Chelsea on Days, Luke on ATWT, and Lizzie on GL are the best, IMO.

Luke has the most real story on daytime right now. The actor is amazing. The char has stong ties to the show and fans care about him.

Lulu on GH, tho hated on this board, is pretty loved by most fans. Again, amazing actress, char has strong ties to the show, and she interacts with EVERONE on gh

Chelsea on days and Lizzie on GL have so many layers to them. You dont see that anymore.

and Maxie. Shes hated. she a bitch. and shes great at it.

General Hospital

Elizabeth Webber: Beautiful & Angelic. Much too good for Lucky.

I also love Logan, Lulu, Coop, Maxie, Georgie, Spinelli, the new kid (Johnny is it?).

Also I don't know if Jason is part of the "Younger Crowd" but since we're including Elizabeth and Lucky in there I also think the character of Jason is awesome.

ATWT

Casey, Jade, Maddie, Gwen, Allison, Aaron, Luke, and Noah. I miss Casey & Jade.... :(

Also ATWT should seriously consider bringing on the guy who played Roth (the guy who was conversing with Luke over coffee that one day) on as a regular on the teen scene. He seemed pretty decent to me in terms of acting skills and he had some chemistry with Luke.

Lily: I like Lily now that shes not with Daniel. As for Dru I don't miss her at all. I mean if I had a mother as psycho as Dru was I know I wouldn't want to be ANYTHING like her.

Colleen Carlton: NuColleen is sorta getting there with me. I floved AL but I'm come to realize that recasts are just an evil part of the industry when it comes to the younger crowd. I agree that the Aussie accent is affecting how I view the charcter.

Daniel: Hate his stupidity. Love his looks. Love his humor and his smile. Just give him a chance to redeem himself and I'll be on board!

Amber: I have a love/hate relationship with this girl. Hated her with ever fiber of my being on B&B for what she did to Rick and others...on Y&R I find her a lot more enjoyable. Shes still a gold digger and shes still a ho but she can be funny and sometimes I find myself feeling bad for her. I think she just needs to work on her self esteem. Clearly shes got some major issues that made her this way. Y&R should explore that rather than continue this stupid money storyline.

Kevin: Again another love/hate relationship I have. Love him when hes with Colleen. Hate him when hes around Gloria or Jana. I also hate how this obviously intelligent guy continues to the stupid dumba$$ sh*t that could put him in jail for life! Hot guy though...loving the prep look. Very modelesque... :D

Fenmore: Awww I love his name! And I Like how they shorten it to Fen.

Summer: The PHICK BABY...what else needs to be said. Shes got a bright future ahead of her...lol. No seriously the baby is cute and I love her name.

Don't care at all about JT, Jana, Noah, Abby or Devon. Just a waste of time and space on the show as far as I'm concerned.

OLTL

I thought Natalie and Jessica were in their late 20s. If they are under 26, you should probably add Adriana Cramer, Layla Williamson, Rex Balsom, Sarah Buchanan, and maybe even Marcie McBain (because she is supposed to be a year or two younger than Jessica, if I'm not mistaken).

GH has by far the best younger characters so far this year.

OLTL's younger characters are dreadfully bland. :o Where is Linda Gottlieb or Susan Bedsow Horgan when you need her? When will they discontinue writing Starr as an adult?

AMC & B&B have the worst ones. If Patrick Mulcahey, Janice Ferri Esser or Kay Alden remain on B&B, they must became head writers. There is no ifs, ands or buts about it. And if David Shaughnessy doesn't quit or retire, he should be its EP. The real L.A. is an interested city.

    • Yes, of course, all of those servants added to the overall picture at AW & also people had relationships with those servants! I like it when Anita asks after one of the servants at the club, how their children are doing & like that. 
    • Great scenes between Marlena and EJ today. Paula and Jeanne are making EJ have more depth than Ron had during his long drawn out tenure.
    • Might as well say it, Minority opinion, granted, but I like Joss & I'm okay with this WSB story & i hope that Emma will be their next recruit & she & Joss can be partners.
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven  The Arlene/Ben/Betsy triangle is one I wish I could see for myself as on paper it doesn't tend to excite me but I can see how well-constructed it was. I wish I could see the Rick/Meg relationship too, although I wish they'd had him genuinely fall for Meg after he gets together with Cal. The whole Brooke/Deacon/Bridget story on B&B was horribly damaging to Brooke as a character but it was dramatically very sound because I could completely believe Deacon would fall for messy and vulnerable Brooke after finally settling down with the more docile Bridget.

    • According to the head writer list, it seems the show may have started to fall apart while either the Schneiders or Upton were writing.  And when it started to crumble, it crumbled fast.  It was sad to see everything Labine had brought to LOL be disassembled.

      Welcome back!!! And I see Abe and Paulina got a new apartment too, which is just a redress of John/Marlena’s, Steve/Kayla’s, etc. But it looks kinda nice. And I enjoyed his scenes with Chanel. It added another perspective to everything that’s been going on with her and Johnny. And Abe using his own history with Lexie to comfort Chanel was a good idea. Plus, it also provided us with more suspicion/red herring about Johnny possibly shooting EJ. I’m looking forward to see what happens between her and Johnny. And I’m so glad that the two of them are on the frontburner now.  Speaking of Johnny, I still have no problem with him going to work for Titan. The drama could be so good, especially once EJ finds out. To me, it seems like another realistic reaction to everything that’s been happening to Johnny lately. It doesn’t seem random and over the top either. And I like that they remembered to have Johnny tell Xander that he has no corporate experience whatsoever. Surprisingly, the two of them work well together. And so do Carson and Deidre. I love how the Marlena/Johnny relationship has been featured so much.  Kayla was still strong and kicking ass today too. The writer change has helped her/Mary Beth so much. But I do admit we should’ve seen Steve trying to get into Dr. Russell’s lab rather than Kayla instructing him over the phone.  And unfortunately, Chad and Cat still don’t seem to be doing much for me though. The cliffhanger was ok too.   Btw, Days was trending at #4 this morning on Peacock
    • There was a huge outcry when we learned that JFP intended to off Donna.
