Straight out of the Guza bible. You recited the passage perfectly. You have absolved Elizabeth of all of her sins by blaming Lucky for each of her choices. Kudos, inspired really.

And this is not propping?

Basically. I mean it's impossible not to notice the slanted writing Elizabeth has gotten for the better part of six years. Elizabeth is Carly in sheep's clothing. They are the two alpha bitches of GH. And this show loves themselves some bitches. If they just made her a bitch I could role with it. But she isn't. She's a horrible heroine and a useless ingenue.

Oh my God can we please shut the literal [!@#$%^&*] up about Elizabeth? Honestly Skin, I like you and I respect you as a poster, but we all know you don't like Liz. The general consensus in this thread is that most people do NOT share your opinion. Most of this discussion is rooted in events that took place 4-6 years ago. We don't need to have pages and pages of debate over her every single month! And it seems like the only time you ever enter this thread is when you want to bash Elizabeth and argue over it. We get it. You don't like her. Next!

Hilarious that I am the only one being reprimanded for talking about Liz. I had no idea I was conversing with myself this entire time. If you are mad respond to the others who are commenting on my original post which was made days or a week or so ago.

I'm telling everyone to please shut the [!@#$%^&*] up about it. You posted your opinion, several others replied to it, almost no one agreed. And that's how it is every single month when we have this SAME conversation. I'm not bashing you or trying to be mean, but you instigate this argument regularly, when you know the same posters are going to continuously disagree with you.

Again, I'm not trying to be mean - But those of us that are actually watching GH right now are more interested in discussing what's happening on February 22, 2012 than what happened in 2006 that supposedly made Liz the biggest [!@#$%^&*] on Earth.

Again you don't seem to be understanding this. Other posters are responding to my post that happened days ago. Yet you are calling me out when other posters are picking up the conversation and are readily engaging in something they wished to discuss. Do you understand the problem with this line of thinking? blink.png

Regardless Liz is not all that I talk about in this thread. I touched on various characters/relationships including the state of the Quatermains, the Cassadine's, and the characters of both Robin and Sam. Don't pigeonhole me just because I don't like your precious Elizabeth.

Ironically enough, that was how Liz was introduced to the show - as the antithesis to her sugary-sweet older sister - 15 years ago. She was bitchy and snarky and I loved her very much for that.

The day that this show stripped her of the witty snark and transformed her into a two-faced weakling was the day that she ceased to be useful or rootable, which is a shame because the character and actress deserve better than the [!@#$%^&*] that this show has written over the past decade.

I understand that other posters responded to your post, and I wish they would stop doing that because it just leads to the same conversation over and over and over and over month after month. I was asking if you could stop STARTING the conversation every blessed month.

All I really want, and I know several other posters feel the exact same way, is for EVERYONE to shut the [!@#$%^&*] up about 5 year old Elizabeth drama. Some of us love her. Some of us hate her. ALL of us are over talking about it.

Let's have this conversation again when Liz does something in 2012 that's worth having this argument over.

Wow. Stop stating your opinion because I don't like it and it's not popular at it's finest. I hope you are never a mod or administrator here. What a horrible line of thinking. Ultimately past events have led us to these current ones. If people are upset about the propping of Elizabeth (as it was exemplified in Robin asking Liz to "take her place" as her daughters mother figure in her last episode) then that probably has some roots in past stories where the writers have done everything possible to write her favorably in an attempt to get fans to love, like and root for her and see her as this flower princess the show needs her to be.

I can't remember the last time Herbst impressed me in a scene so I can't say anything in testament to her acting skills but I can say I think her character needs to be re-purposed and re-imagined. The last time I found her even semi-likable was when she helped Carly out of Ric's panic room and divorced him because of his sickness.

I'll even go a step further and say that they need to erase the past decade or so of fuckery and reintroduce her as the full-fledged young woman she was once allowed to be. While I don't think that Liz haters would automatically fall in love with her, I think that changing her back would go a long way into making her (at the very least) tolerable instead of flat-out horrific.

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
