A part of me died inside when I realized they did this yet again. Who gives a shít? It's not like GH cares about any of these characters, who are ciphers to say they have people of color who they use like trading cards, with actors who either can't act or have no good material. But whether the characters are Black or white, this constant story avenue is literally just Frank trying to run out the clock and fill blocks of time year after year, with space reserved for the most inoffensive stories for the only part of the online audience he cares to cater to and the only material he knows the network will rubberstamp: Babies.
There's a lot on this show that really works and can soar even higher, but it remains mired in key issues and lazy habits. This is why EPs used to leave eventually. That will never happen in this current climate and maybe it's best for the show's survival that it doesn't right now, but the creative mix and control should.
