Members DRW50 Posted May 26, 2012 Members Share Posted May 26, 2012 Looking back it's amazing that GH lasted so many years without some of the overused crap that has helped kill the genre, like serial killer stories and baby switches. That awful text message story was the end of the end I guess and then here we are now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted May 26, 2012 Members Share Posted May 26, 2012 Jax/Carly/Nikolas had one with Courtney didn't they? Or was that just considered a paternity lie because there was only one child? There was also a minor one in the Franco/Lucky/Elizabeth/Nikolas and Aiden. There was also an abduction story with Micheal, Morgan and Kristina when they were younger. GH has had a few.

Members Cheap21 Posted May 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 26, 2012 a baby switch involves 2 women pregnant and a mother given the wrong child to raise. There was no switch in that storyline. None of those are baby switch stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DynamiteKiddo Posted May 26, 2012 Members Share Posted May 26, 2012 RC overused paternity result switcheroos on OLTL, but there was only one baby switch, which I thought was highly effective. GH has been overdoing it on kidnapped babies and paternity mix-ups (Liz had both of these tropes with Aidan), but I can't recall them doing a straight-up baby switch. When I heard "Days" was doing another baby switch in '09, I rolled my eyes because of Hope/Lexie happening in the same decade (and Jess/Starr on OLTL shortly after Kelly/Bianca/Babe) but it turned out to literally save the show and garner them acclaim for the first time in eons. A Sam/Tea swap does NOT sound like it's going to give GH the jolt it needs, but that's what I thought about Sami/Nicole/Mia . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted May 27, 2012 Members Share Posted May 27, 2012 You are a bad soap fan! You don't understand the genre! You're just bitter because [insert excuse here}! If you don't like the show, then stop watching!!/Save Our Soaps!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 27, 2012 Members Share Posted May 27, 2012 Don't forget "This is so soapy!" I do want to save soaps and I don't believe the genre has to die, but nothing on this show or with this team has been close to soap opera for years.

Members JaneAusten Posted May 27, 2012 Members Share Posted May 27, 2012 Why on earth would a GH viewer give a crap about Tea's baby? For all most know she's a new character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members VirginiaHamilton Posted May 27, 2012 Members Share Posted May 27, 2012 Frankly, I'm not looking forward to seeing Ron "redeem" Todd in order for him to be "worthy" in Hater Yellgado's eyes. And because I'll never stop asking: why the hell is Blair not here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jjjg Posted May 28, 2012 Members Share Posted May 28, 2012 Why would they do a baby switch story for a character (Tea) that isn't even a GH cast member. Did she sign a contract? Not to mention they still have the Victor is alive ball hanging in the air, why not fix that before adding more on top of Tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
