Members FrenchBug82 Posted February 8, 2021 Members Share Posted February 8, 2021 "Lots of lie I can believe but enjoying Buzz in bed? No way" is hell of a line to have gotten away with in daytime in 1993 (on several different levels) but I hollered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted February 9, 2021 Members Share Posted February 9, 2021 Who says that and at what mark???? I can't watch this era of GL with cute Nadine and sexy Jeanna fighting over Buzzard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Darn Posted February 9, 2021 Members Share Posted February 9, 2021 I got so excited but she said NOT enjoying Buzz in bed so she was complimenting that jackass. Ugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NothinButAttitude Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 I loved Hamp even though he was a stubborn old bull. Rewatching this unnerved me and reminded me how this show cast Hamp and Gilly aside once Nancy Curlee left. What was done to them was criminal. It always bothered me how GL (along with Y&R in the early 90s) flourished with diversity and nuked it to h*ll by '95. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 I thought it was going to go that way also..damn! But Buzz and Deas were the fantasies of both JFP and Patrick Mulcahey (as we have learned he worked through his daddy issues with writing for Buzz...ugh, if only he just went to therapy!!!) so of course he would be dynamite in bed! I don't get why they did not just write Buzz and Jenna off and gave them a happy ending instead of killing her? Buzz did nothing afterwards..and I can't believe JFP didn't try to lure him off to one of her other soaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 About a year or so, I watched some GL episodes from '94 and it struck as sad how much Hamp had been marginalized by then and it only got worse after the departure of Kat. Had Y&R not put Nathan through character assassination, Nathan Purdee probably could've been brought back some time in the last decade, provided the storyline were good (a big "if"). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Forever8 Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 It seemed like they didn't know what to do Nathan on YR for the longest after Nathan Purdee left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 I agree. One storyline that got made after Purdee's departure, the Keesha storyline had a number of problematic aspects, despite the fact that it gave TLW some very memorable, meaty dialogue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchBug82 Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 I think it is time for a confession. I didn't like Deas' attention-seeking acting style and Buzz did nothing for me. But I recently started watching the very very beginning of Ryan's Hope on YouTube and young Justin Deas... I would have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted February 10, 2021 Members Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hey..his Tom on ATWT was one of my first crushes. I think the Emmy and the industry recognition got to him and the director's and producers and critics so they just let him go and as Logan said, "Acting like his pants are on fire everyday" and he meant that as a compliment!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted February 11, 2021 Members Share Posted February 11, 2021 I doubt they would've ever brought Nathan back had he not been character assassinated. I think at that stage of the show, Y&R felt there was only room enough for 4 Black characters and Nathan wasn't one of them. That was enough to fulfill the quota. I think 4 is the magic number on soaps in general with the exception of AW in the early 80s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
