Members frequentsoapfan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 Don't even get me started on the character destruction done to Anna. Her daughter dies and instead of trying to do right with her granddaughter she's off gargling Luke's nuts because "My granddaughter is too busy with ballet for me". Emma better grow up to be a prima ballerina then she's so busy practicing she has no time for grandma! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 Robin's death was real to Patrick, Anna and everyone else. Matter's not that the character really isn't dead. Don't do a funeral if you are not going to do a funeral. There was no excuse for that empty ass church. Piph and Monica not there? Ridiculous!

Members MrQuartermaine Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yeah, but even at that, Phil Carey didn't really pass away and made several guest appearances after Asa died. John Ingle's really gone. Edward's not coming back as a ghost, in a heaven storyline, or in a video will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted September 25, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 What's even worse was Piph was onscreen that day but over at the hospital with the Jasam and Carly crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MrQuartermaine Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 Robin's funeral, as penned by Garin Wolf, included almost every character, and featured the returns of Jacklyn Zeman (Bobbie) and, health permitting, Rachel Ames (Audrey). The only notable absence was Edward, as John Ingle was scheduled for surgery at the time. When Ron took over and made the decision to keep Robin alive, the whole funeral was rewritten.

Members marceline Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 If that's true, it was a mistake. My offliner friend was LIVID at Robin's funeral and having her come back to life didn't change her resentment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 But didn't they love the scenes where a giddy Robert skipped town the night before his daughter was buried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 I'm sure she mentioned it in the 20 minute rant she made over the phone (on company time) but I lost track of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfave06 Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 Are you kidding me? Ugh! What crappy timing for Carlivati to take over. I would've loved for there to have been a real funeral and to see Bobbie and Audrey just one more time. Is Rachel Ames ill as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfave06 Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 That's sad to hear. Thanks for sharing that though. It seems almost all of the old GH vets are ill lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DynamiteKiddo Posted September 25, 2012 Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 I'm actually a big GW supporter, but I'll take RC's horrifying, afterthought treatment of Robin's "death"/funeral over the medical and social implications of GW's planned demise for Robin. While I don't think Robin's HIV status was sufficiently acknowledged on the serial, she represented what a "normal" (whatever the hell that means) and full life an HIV+ positive person can live. Crazy Lisa switching out her meds or not, Robin developing full blown AIDS and dying instantly is sending out such a horrible and UNLIKELY message. Thank God that didn't proceed.
