GH: New Opening?


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I read on a site called Daytime Confidential that the show is getting a new opening:

I dont know how reliable this site is, but it does seem likely that GH would get a new opening considering it's had all new bumpers (ditto OLTL, which needs one badly...although I hope the one for AMC remains the same as it's the best fit for the series). I also suppose this means that Sarah Brown's newbie character is going to be hogging all of the airtime and that she'll basically be playing Carly (who, for me, left when Tamara Braun did...I've said before that Laura Wright, while fantastic, is playing a pampered Valley girl and that's NOT what Carly is), which is stupid for TPTB because she's one of those actors who sees themselves as 'above' daytime and only does it between jobs (Rebecca Budig, Tuc Watkins, Paul Leyden and to an extent Eden Rigel also fall into this category) and most likely wont even stick around past her initial contract, so putting her front and center is beyond stupid.

I also guess that means that Laura Wright's Carly will be taking more of a back seat (especially if she's not in the top 4 in the opening when previously she was second) and that TPTB will be devoting more time to Sarah Brown's Claudia character in her place. I also wonder what her presence will mean for Megan Ward's status on the show as Kate...it could be Reese Marshall all over again and totally reeks of what I think is going to happen to Melissa Claire Egan now that Rebecca Budig is back on AMC)

I agree, GH doesn't have a problem with letting talented actresses go...especially love interests for Sonny. Maybe now that Skye is away they could pair Ric with Kate, but I fear that Megan Ward join the list of actresses who are sacrificed for the sake of Sonny and Carly.

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
