GH: What will it take for you to like Claudia?


Recommended Posts

I know I'm in the minority when I say I actually really enjoy the character of Claudia, but I can see why people wouldn't. I guess what sells the character for me is that even with some of the shawdy writing sometimes, Sarah Brown is still totally committed to whatever is thrown at her. Plus the potential coupling of Ric and Claudia gives me the fuzzies..SB and RH have amazing chemistry.

But enough of my rant, what would it take to save the character for you?

I will say that she is more tolerable lately. I do like her with Rick. However I will never forgive her for stepping over Kate's dying body and walking away. What kind of person does that? I don't care how much I hate someone I would never leave them to die like that. But that's just MHO.

I like Claudia except for one fact that she is the one who paid the gunman to kill Sonny, but ending up Michael. That's the big thing. Maybe Claudia can be given a brain tumor or a multiple personality briefly to explain that action. I do like Claudia with Ric and even with Nikolas. Sarah Joy Brown is awesome and with any other actress in the role I'd probably hate Claudia but Sarah shines through in the role and makes me forget she was ever Carly and makes me sympathize with Claudia especially when it comes to her father Anthony.

I like Sarah Brown, I LOVE her on here because she's def. one of my favorite daytime actresses. The character of Claudia is very hard to like however, and I don't like when they try to shove her in a storyline or a potential relationship with Jason or Sonny (like the marriage thing), but Ric/Claudia are very hot together. I don't see her being on her for long however, her one year deal is coming up soon and they have the perfect exit-storyline for her since Sonny and co. still don't know she's the one who shot Michael.

    • Well, Claire did rig Rick's test results, but it was to flunk. They actually managed to get his correct results back after they were thrown into Cedar's furnace...I think? Everyone knew Claire changed them and Rick passed so that rewrite never made sense.   I agree. Pratt always seems "edgy" on screen (and her Locker Room interview prooved that it came from her personality.) I liked Claire causeing trouble and love Meta ringing her beads. Its just too bad that Abby left and they kinda just forgot Claire existed. 
    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.
