Members Cheap21 Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 Oh come on that's an exaggeration. It's bad but not worse than GL which looked like an 8th grade student project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 We heard so much about how Valentini was a genius and the budget king and he would make GH look awesome. It's interesting to me that we are hearing nothing from the soap press about how [!@#$%^&*] GH looks, when they were happy to go after Ellen Wheeler over and over. I guess they didn't want to have sex with Ellen Wheeler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 My younger sister is apart of the teen audience thay are desperate trying to hook. She doesn't watch GH however was sitting next to me while I watched as I was getting ready for work. She was making fun of the bad camera angles and the voiceovers.

Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 I'm one of the very very very few who appreciated I think what Wheeler tried to do. And let's be honest had GL suddenly taken an upturn in it's final year like the overrated OLTL did ( who's upturn was really not much) the move would have been praised. I think I appreciated that while the cuts on production were starling, the show managed in it's final year to retain some semblance of respectability when it came to the canvas and even story. It doesn't mean the show didn't overstay it's welcome. I've seen comments from Branco and Giddens in recent weeks alluding to GH being unwatchable. I don't really believe that's more then at this point than not seeing their own personal faves be front and center vs an honest assessment of the show.

Members DRW50 Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 I agree that GL didn't get enough credit for its last year. There was no SOAPY GOODNESS! talk. Wheeler and GL were easy targets. The soap press has invested years in hyping "Cartini" and telling us how they are ratings and budget kings, and all the rest. I didn't even know they were calling GH unwatchable. I guess that must be because they aren't showing Tea enough, or because they haven't sold their entire family to get TSJ on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 GL when everything was filmed outside and in back lots was better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 I was kind of joking when I mentioned GL being better production wise and honestly I don't watch GH enough to give a fair assessment anymore. I tune in every once in a great while. But I did watch GL and I do think Wheeler was unfairly attacked by many and it became popular to hate in her just like it's become popular online to love the wonder twins. I just think she maintained as best as she could the things that were really important, the canvas and the stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 LOL! You guys are really piquing my interest. I can't believe the production is that bad. I'm fascinated. I may check out an episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 12, 2012 Members Share Posted June 12, 2012 Okay when the first flashback was shown my sister asked why someone was following Heather with a camera. It really did look like the camera angles Passions and DAYS would use when stalkers were following people except for the cameras being diagonal.
