September 12, 201213 yr Member I stopped watching like two months ago but decided to watch this one and wow it was really good. I'm glad I haven't watched the clusterf-ck of the storyline leading up to this but Tracy/Monica/Edward was the best part and so sad. Really tired of John McBain on this show
September 12, 201213 yr Member I don't believe anyone on this show no matter how much more great material the women may be getting care about any of them. And this show doesn't have an Erika Slezak, Susan Lucci, Susan Flannery, Jeanne Cooper, heck they don't even have a Katherine Kelly Lang. The only way I'd see any more Quartermaine story is if they brought Rex over from OLTL and retconned his paternity yet again. I've heard rumblings of them bringing Alan back in some capacity and at this point as much as I love him, it's like what for. They've managed to use Tracy for a long time without using the Quartermaines or rebuild them so as much as I love Jane Elliott, I just don't see it. Thank god for small favors. KKL is just plain lousy. She's one lucky heifer, I tell yah! But I dont' expect the Qs to be resurrected. I just wanted to dream for a second. As for Rex, let's just try to keep such thoughts to ourselves. Can't have that getting out into the universe!

Really tired of John McBain on this show There are really no words to describe how much I hate this guy. He was the only part that NEEDED to be ff'd yesterday. And why is he wearing women's clothing?! Edited September 12, 201213 yr by ChitHappens
September 12, 201213 yr Member And this show doesn't have an Erika Slezak, Susan Lucci, Susan Flannery, Jeanne Cooper, heck they don't even have a Katherine Kelly Lang. No, it has a Jane Elliot; and with Beverlee McKinsey dead and Susan Flannery about to retire, she's one of the last, remaining vestiges of daytime's former glory left.
September 12, 201213 yr Member John McBain irks me as well. I get he is good looking and is popular, but why does a OLTL character have to be the be-all-end-all for GH? Anna Devane (a bomb expert & GH character) should be the one to defuse the bomb. But I get she is a woman who is over 40 and the writers like their OLTL characters, so I try really hard not to get too irritated and just accept John McBain will be the savior of P.C.
September 12, 201213 yr Member I get he is good looking and -- Wait, are we still talking about John McBain?
September 12, 201213 yr Member Woah. You got to say the f-word without it bleeping out. I wonder if I'll [!@#$%^&*] be able to. LOL. Nope. It bleeped it. I just found that amusing somehow. How did the censor on here not get you Marceline? No idea. Perhaps the sheer force of my Cartini disdain shorted it out. John McBain irks me as well.

September 12, 201213 yr Member And didn't ABC have to pay to use the characters of John, Todd and Starr? Which is why Blair and Tea only make guest appearances?
September 12, 201213 yr Member And didn't ABC have to pay to use the characters of John, Todd and Starr? Which is why Blair and Tea only make guest appearances? FV is a liar.
September 12, 201213 yr Member No, it has a Jane Elliot; and with Beverlee McKinsey dead and Susan Flannery about to retire, she's one of the last, remaining vestiges of daytime's former glory left. The point wasn't to insult JE. It was to point out GH hasn't had a real matriarch or women who drive stories in I don't know how long. I wasn't bringing up KKL due to her talent or Susan for hers. I brought then up because they and these other women are or we're the fabric of their shows. For all the criticizm of B&B and the endless triangle from hell, its been Stephanie, Brooke and now Steffy and Hope that are the keys to that show not Ridge or the villian of the month Bill. GH hasn't had that level of influence or continuity or strength of one femLe character on that show for years and it's been male dominated and influenced for years.

September 12, 201213 yr Member I got to see John Ingle's scenes. So difficult to watch. This reminds me of the last time that James Mitchell appeared on AMC and Michael Zaslow on One Life to Live. Edited September 12, 201213 yr by Ann_SS

I don't think she meant acting ability but more of a female tent pole, an actress who has served as the lead face of GH throughout the decades. Love her or hate her but KKL has been that for B&B along with SF. GH doesn't really have one
