He sees the writing on the wall. He's on contract now but it seems as if he expectsw for them to drop him next. The big talk of some umbrella storyline involving him probably seems like BS to reassure him and shut fans up. He also made a good point about Jax and Liz losing a child together, which would have been a great way to connect them in their current storyline but both characters have taken a back seat. Such a shame

I don't think they had a lot of choice. The budget was cut and they had to let some people go. They tried with Becky, but there was a fan revolt. Cuts had to come from somewhere. It does suck, but I see it as a second round of vet cutting. Becky, Tyler and Ingo are all in that 15 year range. One of them probably costs more than 5 Shawns. I'm expecting GH to be infiltrated by more cheap newbies as the summer goes on. :ph34r:

I agree. Honesty is great, but I don't think it's rewarded in showbiz very often. Certainly not when you are contradicting your boss. Ingo must feel he doesn't have a lot to lose and might as well try to garner fan support before he's officially out. I can't see ABC caving to fan demand again so soon. Not if an official announcement is made. If I were a huge Jax fan (I used to be) I would be be trying to pimp a Liz/Jax pairing right now. That might just be what both characters need.

Ingo KNOWS he is going to be fired this summer when they write Brenda out.

I love that he mentioned Jax/Liz. The scene where they planted the tree was so nice.

I actually really liked them-

It would have been interesting if Jax was there for Liz and thankful she let his organs be donated, and they two connected and bonded causing a issue between Jax/Carly.

No, I was thinking more of 2006/2007 when Bonnie, Mimi, Patrick, Tek, Lexie, Tony, John, Jack and Jennifer all left in a matter of months and the entire show was gutted. Shawn and Belle carried the show at Tinda Lau while Sami manned Salem with Celeste. Everybody else was basically gone other than newbies like Nick, the Touch The Sky crowd, newbie EJ.

This is true but on screen it didnt feel like that big of a shift but then again it didnt feel like a big shift when John, Marlena, Patch, Kayla, Tony all left either, so... But the production changes were noticeable the second time around.

Also, the Sami/Celeste stuff was awesome, i had forgot all about it.

Marlena and John's absence was glaring, but 2009 was easier for me to digest because it was just a matter of swapping old Salem reliables. Out went Patch and Kayla, in came Victor and Maggie. That was a lot different than watching day after day of that old crank on Tinda Lau and the army of newbies Max, Stefanie, Chelsea, Jeremy, Jett and a barrel of prostitutes and drug dealers.
