Members Graham Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 I'm mostly a lurker but I've read the GH thread for years. So on point as usual, R Sinclair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 I don't know how you define worthy, but I think you could put Matt, Ewen, Tracy, Maxie and Heather to work and come up with a halfway entertaining show. You got your bitch, your crazy, your guy who can take his shirt off, and a young couple. That's all you really need to build a soap around and you can go take one of them in almost any direction.

Members Max Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 The reason for this is because the actors who portrayed those characters were not pets of Cartini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 I'm standing on furniture cheering! I've said this from day one! No attempt has been made to write for GH, and we are supposed to just get over it. HELL NO! We should root for this chit because it means we still believe in soaps? BULLCHIT! Its unacceptable and I will NEVER get on board! ANDREA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Lol RC can't write for minorities so I'd hate to see him attempt to write for the Hubbards. Besides I know he wouldn't bring on DM as Angie. He'd bring her on as that doctor from PC who once crossed over on GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Sure can't write for black characters. Shawn's not a pimp or drug dealer so I imagine it had to be pretty difficult for them to write for him. Guess its just as well he's off screen.

Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 I didn't see him give the Vega family or his own creation The Patels(from what little I saw of them) any good writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 To them, it was probably good. They made an attempt. There has never been an attempt to write for black characters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 I remember the black and Latino characters on OLTL being on backburner. I suppose we're supposed to be happy that minorities are dayplayers on GH as if they haven't been for the past several years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Out of curiosity (I don't watch GH) what is the minority representation on the show? I remember a lot of talk when Annie Ilonzeh showed up and I even watched a few clips just to see what she had going on but she moved on pretty quickly, correct? And I know they keep Epiphany as GH's version of Mamie but is there anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Currently Shawn, TJ(a teen GW created and gave the name of a legacy character to, and Ephinany. And then a bunch of random no name dayplayers like the mayor and the thugs Jason hires. Annie barely got anyhting on GH so she auditioned during pilot season and got a new job. Instead of recasting they let the character stay offscreen for weeks while Annie was filming her pilot, the show The Charlies Angels reboot got picked up, then brought her back to throw the character under the bus while writing her off. It was awful seeing her used to prop a little girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 There was no representation. Then Guza brought in Shawn as a love interest for Carly. Wolf developed them and Carly very nicely. He even gave Shawn a dependent, TJ. Cartooni came in and got rid of them post haste! [!@#$%^&*] Losers!
