Members Greg's GL Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 There's a short blurb in this week's SOW that EW/DK are leaning towards KILLING OFF HARLEY! Can't these hacks come up with a better exit for this character? If they do kill off the character, I hope they don't screw with her history the way they have with Gus....

Members brimike Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 It's a bitterness thing. When actors piss off execs, their first reaction is "KILL THE CHARACTER! SO THEY CAN NEVER COME BACK! THAT'LL SHOW THEM!" It happens all the time. Unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 That was the first thought to cross my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 Killing Gus was bad enough. That didn't bother me so much because he wasn't a long term character. Harley has been on this show for 20 years and she is connected to everyone. She hasn't been a fav of mine in years, but this pisses me off.

Members Greg's GL Posted June 23, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 ^^^ ICAM Julia. Harley Davidson Cooper is a CENTRAL character on this show. Regardless of whether she's on-screen or not, she has ties to almost everyone on the show. Pam Long built a family around this character 20 years ago, for cryin out loud. This would be the dumbest mistake they could make IMO. If EW/DK are that childish to kill the character off because BE told them to go jump off cliff....well....that's pathetic. Let's hope it doesn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 They did it with Peter Simon AND Jerry verDorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 To be fair, I think every soap has been guilty of this at one time or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 Oh, ABSOLUTELY!!!! Sorry, didn't mean to imply it was just GL. Just making points in the GL thread. But you're right, TC - every soap has done this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ian Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 Yeah well this means that if they kill off Harley it'll be done offscreen - the ultimate insult! However, this means if we dont see her... she may come back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanatic777 Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 Huh??? What!?!?!? Ellen Wheeler is cretifiable. She has no common sense what-so-ever, as if we didn't know that already (captain obvious here..) Harley has been one of my favorites on GL forever. It's sad IF this is true, and speaks to the lows this show has sunk to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted June 23, 2008 Members Share Posted June 23, 2008 No need. Never thought you were implying it, just thought I'd throw it out here in case some of the young'uns weren't aware of it. What's surprising is that it still happens at all, given all the trouble it's caused every time it's been done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NEWMANJABOT Posted June 24, 2008 Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 What the hell is wrong with these hackers? I loved BETH ETHLERS as HARLY.But understand that people need to move on. While I would noy to see them recast or kill off Harly why don't they do a mia storyline and that way the door will alway be open if B.E. deciides she wants to come back.I watch GUIDING LIGHT AT 9AM SO THIS ANGFRS ME TO NO END. can't they think of a better way to let a beloved character go?Well now I can see why number ONE soap pera GENERAL HOSPITAL is doing better in the raiitings.

Members Gray Bunny Posted June 24, 2008 Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 That's okay, they can just build the show around their newest stand-out female role... Ava! She has been such a huge hit with fans they could almost do a spin-off of GL and have it star Michelle Ray Smith! I'm kidding. This show is dead.
