And then get salty at the new regime for not hiring them even though the old regime was the one that pink-slipped their asses.

ITA with that. Ingo might have a right be be ticked since it appears he and JFP had an agreement that he would return periodically and FV put a kibosh on it but based on his final visit where he lurked for weeks I'm not sure if there would have been much value anyway

I've seen some comments at DC praising the show for continuing the Franco story, and how brilliant it is to tie this to history, and so on. I guess some may see it as brave. I see it as lazy writing, just avoiding moving characters or story forward. Paternity stalls are a good way to not have to actually write, and Ron loved that at OLTL.

Poor hot Antonio, he needs work. Someone hire him so I can watch the beauty.

The funniest were the tweets from whoever that one actors was( don't remember his name or character), tweeting this isn't Port Wendy Riche. Um Wendy Riche hasn't been on GH for years and what tv show has she produced since Laguna Beach?

They were the same ones dishing it for years. Had it continued under GW they would have all been bashing it.

That's how he went out? I'm not sure if that's any better than the exit that I witnessed (him leaving the country with Brenda after Sonny/Slagbeast framed him so that he could lose custody of his only child).

Either way, IR needs to be mad at Frons for not only firing his ass (after years of underutilizing him and only bringing his character out to be Slagbeast's chew toy) and at JFP for promising something that she couldn't deliver (as I don't believe for one second that she hadn't a clue that her time with ABC was coming to an end even then), instead of whining about it on Twitter.

It was better off had they left it with him leaving town with Brenda.

Well, to be fair, Wendy Riche did fire that actor

I don't know, cheap. Watching what used to be a proud man leave town broken and bowed (albeit with the only true friend he had left) after he lost custody to the Mob was one of the most infuriating things that ever happened on this show.

Yeah that was my point. Why was he taking twitter digs at Wendy who's been gone since 2001, while yelling at the new regime at the same time?

so it was better watching him come back, lurk around town, kidnap Josselyn (and hand her over to Carly's criminal/body guard), give Sonny a "reason" to try and kill him, fake his deah and overall be written as some desperate pathetic loser? They were reaching AJ territory with the direction they were going with Jax. Him leaving with Brenda would have been best for him had that been his last story instead of the crap they did with him in the summer

I don't know, as I mentioned that I didn't see it. However, as I also said, I'm not sure if that exit sounded better than the trifling one that I saw.

Both exits GW rewrote, Jax's and Niks were worse than the original exits penned under Guza. Brenda at least got to leave with her dignity and not have that rewritten.

Not that I was a huge fan of his, but I'm nevertheless scared to ask how Nik exited the second time (especially since I thought that last scene of his and he and JJ co-wrote was sweet).

I was never a Nik fan but I thought his original exit was decent not great with his farewells to "Emily" Liz and Lucky. The missing pieces were Alexis and Lulu so they had him come back to hook up with Lulu at Cassadine Island when she was searching for Luke and he proceeded to say how much he hated the Spencers, Lucky, and regretted saving Lulus life and then left.
