Members DRW50 Posted May 3, 2014 Members Share Posted May 3, 2014 It wasn't for long. I guess he was one of the former soap names they threw at Emma Samms to try to make her comeback work (Randolph Mantooth was another). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted May 4, 2014 Members Share Posted May 4, 2014 Ahhhh, back in the days when the show was still decent!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted May 4, 2014 Members Share Posted May 4, 2014 This was the period when the destruction of the Q seeds were planted. I hate the characterization here. Ned is a pompous jerk who looks down on his family. The writing is bent to make Edward automatically in the wrong, and everyone starts getting reason to not want to be a Q. Ned, Lois, Jason, Emily, Justus, Dillon...all useless. That said at least they were alive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 4, 2014 Members Share Posted May 4, 2014 Exactly. Alan and Monica TODAY should be the show's tentpole couple. I'll leave it at that before I get on a long tangent full of rage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 4, 2014 Members Share Posted May 4, 2014 Guza hated the family and you could tell. I didn't care very much for that era, I was mostly posting for those who did. Generally if I see Ned I skip it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 4, 2014 Members Share Posted May 4, 2014 I feel like no one really cared for the Quartermaines except Douglas Marland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 4, 2014 Members Share Posted May 4, 2014 Do you think Wendy Riche did? Obviously, the writers did, giving the Qs lots of snarky dialogue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 5, 2014 Members Share Posted May 5, 2014 [!@#$%^&*]. Forgot about Wendy Riche. So, that's two people who cared for the Q's. Okay, three (Claire Labine). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 5, 2014 Members Share Posted May 5, 2014 I think Labine mostly just cared about the "good" Quartermaines, which, along with the constant loudmouth shaming sessions from Lois, allowed Guza to have more room to destabilize them in the mid/late 90's. Which Riche did nothing to stop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 5, 2014 Members Share Posted May 5, 2014 I think Rena Sofer was the one who said it best: "The Quartermaines put the 'fun' in dysfunctional." Even though my family is nowhere near as dysfunctional (or wealthy!!) as the Qs, we certainly have had our moments!! LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted May 6, 2014 Members Share Posted May 6, 2014 What a great cover photo - and an interesting article. Too bad they won't give Denise Alexander anything to do today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 The headline on the cover is a trifle misleading, though. It makes it sound as if Denise Alexander and John Beradino were 1) together, and 2) new parents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ghfan89 Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 The family aspect of GH wasn't as prevalent on GH after Marland left. I think I read somewhere that Gloria Monty didn't care for the family aspect of soaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
