Four OLTL actors heading to GH

Ugh now I have to watch full time, and I hate GH for the most part :(

I will bet cash money that RC pairs up KMo & ME. I remember the "what if" things they did awhile back and one was what if Sam McCall met John McBain :P

Jake was the only one that did work, but only for a short while. And those were sister soaps much like AMC/OLTL and Y&R/B&B. OTLT to GH is a huge jump.

It just feels like the new writing team wants to keep THEIR OLTL alive and have been given what might be the plumb assignment of spearheading the network's flagship soap without any real understanding of what's been missing all these years. These characters might have been the core on one show, but they are nothing but well flogged newbies from GH's perspective. Not everyone who watches GH has knowledge of or even interest in who these characters are.

And what about Hope? Are we supposed to have yet another toddler blond girl on the show or is the kid forgotten in the flight from town or has she been killed and I don't know or is Michael seriously being considered as a step-parent for the tyke??? It's asking too much to weave these characters into a show which already has its own legacy characters.

Just short sighted, that's all.

I agree, although I think the ABC soaps have become so homogenized that there won't be as big of an adjustment. McBain is a comatose emo loser, like Jason. GH is full of random psychos and half-written crime stories, as was OLTL.

My guess is that Frons had worked out a deal with bringing ME to GH, and that was set in stone. Since PP is not happening and Todd and Blair were left hanging, that means they just brought them in to wrap up their story. I will be surprised if they stay for more than a month or two.

I have to admit I'm perplexed about KA's arrival, as I didn't think Starr was *that* popular, but I guess they may just be doing since while they build up their teen scene. At least she isn't being recast as Kristina.

As long as they give Todd and Blair a happy ending and maybe divest my Natalie of John, I'm over the moon. I'll watch GH for the first time in ages.

On his worst day, John is actually a better guy than Sonny and Jason, and the fact is this Todd story and everything about it has more excitement around it than anything on GH. So sure, go for it.

I'm just worried we're going to get some ending where she was a cheating whore. I guess that's better than a Caera goodbye.

I don't believe Ron would ever do that to her, for all his faults.

Either they'll have broken up, or John's only in town for this story.

Do you think these people had to sign new contracts? Or, are they all still held to their current contracts with ABC Daytime for OLTL.

I don't think he'd kill her off, but the cheating bit wouldn't surprise me, especially after they rewrote the Natalie/Brody sex to make it seem like she was engaged to John at the time.

It's nice to see this vote of confidence in KDP. She's always been such a trouper for OLTL. Whatever happens I hope she feels proud of being asked to move.

IDK about Starr and Johnny Skidmarks. Starr/Spinelli could be....interesting. ;-)

I can see Todd making Spinelli his new parrot. Or blowing him up on a boat. I'm fine with that too.

I would think new contracts as their OLTL contracts ended upon cancellation/their last day of work. I guess the real question is how long has this plan been in the works post online venture falling through.

Starr dating Spin would be hilarious just for the Todd/Spin scenes that we would hopefully get.
