they suck. plain and simple.

gloria is too ott and there are no reactions for her actions. no punishment. nothing ever happens to her.

The ebst thing that could happen is gloria go backburner for a long time. i lvoe chapman, but it is too much gloria.

kevin, michael and esp lauren need storys without gloria not about gloria.

Don't worry you haven't missed anything. I think the Glo hate comes from the fact that for a while there she was on everyday scheming and getting away with what seemed like EVERYTHING. I realize that she was susposed to be Jack's nemesis but (IMO) she became too cartoonish (the only thing she didn't do was twirl a mustache ). Glo's misdeeds trumped Jack's. Fans who disliked Jack loved Glo because she was getting over on him, but then her actions ( especially thoses that didn't involve Jack) became just too much. I think the her lack of remorse also played a part.

I'm one of those who love to hate GloHo and the more over the top Chapman plays her the more I liked her. I wouldn't compare the BaldFish's to the Q's however because not all of Q's are ruthless while the BF clan includes a grifter, an unscrupulous lawyer, a criminal minded sibling and a clueless daughter-in-law. I would compare the BF's to the Santo's family formally of GL.

I'm can't wait for Nikki to go against Jil and hire Glo back. Because yes she(Nikki)is that dumb, so let the games begin.

A character like Lillie Belle, Mamie, Dina, etc. is similar to Jill because you have an older female who can add conflict to an existing family and all listed are bitchy, in some cases, devious characters like Gloria. Lillie Belle in particular was satanic. You could bring these people back, write new stories and still fill the void of Gloria while keeping the show fresh.

Gloria has never been Gloria for me since Joan Van Ark left. I think staying at Y&R would've prevented her from having so much plastic surgery as well. She wouldn't have enough time off to recover. It's a win win, she saves what's left of her looks and the viewers have a more complex character to enjoy. The writers ruined Gloria by so severely rewriting the character to fit Chapman.

    • I would love if Sarah were already pregnant and then, even with the reveal that she knew about the letter, that she and Xander would work on things to keep their family intact. But I fear that time is running out. Whatever Philip is doing is probably going to mess up everything. I do like that Kayla and Sarah mentioned the Horton legacy with the hospital and that Kayla would much prefer Xander financing it over EJ. Xander is suddenly Horton adjacent. Belle is as usual a massive hypocrite whining about 'everything' Xander has done to her family when EJ raped her sister, kept her cancer ridden toddler from her, helped Nicole keep the baby she had stolen from Sami for a year, shot her dad in the head, and as recently as last year railroaded her innocent teen nephew into prison where he was beaten up. Sure, Xander shot Brady and Marlena but both of them seem to be over it. Cat should have just graciously accepted Xander's apology. I actually like that he treated Felicity like anybody else and did not coddle her. I hope we see him apologizing though. I wonder if Cat knows that Xander shot their granddad Kon dead last year? She might like him better if she knew. I wonder who is calling her? My money is on Gwen for some reason. I feel like Cat and Chad will get comfy and then we will find out Abby is out there and Gwen has had her. EJ and Cat were far more palatable than Chad and Cat, but EJ makes everybody easier to tolerate. Roman and Kate vs Johnny and Paulina... not sure which were more boring. I guess I'll go with Roman and Kate because he speaks so darn slowly now. Philip is entertaining the heck out of me. I hope he ends up the hero who saves Bo. I think it would be hysterical if he managed to get his hands on the Versovix and EJ ends up buying a useless money pit of a hospital.
    • I just start to laugh thinking about the interview where Leslie related its being Tom Donovan who talked her into doing GH & then, once she was settled in & looked around for him, he had JUST vanished!! 
    • We probably would if the writers bothered to write for them... but they've proven unable to write anything for them.  Even though Ashley has potential as a character.   @janea4oldMy theory is that Joey might end up being Ashley's father... but time will tell.
    • But, you have to admit, Dani seems to be, relishing in the fact that she is not the only one in pain, or had a trash husband. That's how it is coming across to me, she is enjoying this too much!
    • I assume not as we would have probably heard, but she could have been a good fit. I could see her being a good Leslie Brooks recast, although by that point the show had fully moved on from Leslie.  I'm not sure who she could have been on B&B, although I could see her playing yet another Beth Logan recast.
    • Are we supposed to care about Ashley and Derek 
    • Yes, I am glad to hear that. I personally feel he shines in other areas.
