I thought Chloe had such potential in the beginning, but she became so bland and dull. She's lost every trait that made her interesting in the beginning. I think it all started when her hair grew out lol. Odd I know, but it was the beginning of the end. She was brought on as a trendysetter and she has the most bland and boring hairstyles now, to go with her drab wardrobe. She also has no bite.

I understand it's still early and Griffin has even said he'd like to cut more people, but I'll be interested in seeing when that happens and who he cuts. It kinda irks me that his first story is involving Adam and Chelsea, since I think she was a total failure of a character. I hate Adam as well, but I accept he'll be around. Still, I feel like Chloe, Kevin and Chelsea just need to go ASAP. Give them little screentime until their contract cycle and tell them to kick rocks. Not to mention Eden and Kyle. And if they intend on Fen being heterosexual they need to recast.

Pretty sure Ronan, Eden and Sarge are on the way out since they're the only contract players (other than Robert Adamson and Hunter King - are they on contract?) not featured in the new opening.

If they intend on Fen being HUMAN they need to recast.

Obviously, I agree with everyone's sentiments regarding Chloe. But, you know, I could take-or-leave that girl. Yeah, she's as memorable as paste. But she's nowhere near as regrettable as Daisy. I swear, that girl is like the "Waterworld" of Y&R.

A bitch yes but she hasn't been treacherous in years. Motherhood watered Chloe down. I hate the redeem a rotten b!tch via a baby tactic soaps often use. I don't see her as trashy and tacky though. She snipes and snarks, very one-note. Other times she's getting berated by Kevin. That's been pretty much it for the character for awhile.

    • Agreeing with your agreeing, and I bet that any urge toward violence against Sarah is what will cause Xander to try to redeem himself. Even though, as you mentioned the other, I have enjoyed the buildup.  It seems like everyone easily forgave Philip for stealing from Xander.  And their defense was that Victor wanted his two sons to work together.  Until, finally, Xander exploded and realized that Victor wanted what he wrote in his will, days before his death.  If Philip had led an actual legal battle for the estate, then Xander might have capitulated.  But, Philip made him look like a fool.  Because Philip was too smug to simply ask Xander for he thought he deserved.  noted for the contrarians, that is not a defense for violence  -- I assume we are all of sound mind, and know right from wrong.
    • I imagine Philip will refuse to identify Xander because he knows he orchestrated this mess and tanked his brother's marriage. Eventually I hope to see Philip and Xander reconciling their awful crimes against each other and restoring that brother bond.  And Xander needs therapy. He was twisted into what he is by Victor's cruelty and has zero anger management skills. Having said that I think this was more a gross writing choice than anything else. One punch would have sufficed for sure but they wanted to show us Sarah was "right". Never mind that she created this situation by helping Xander love his brother so the betrayal was far worse. If he'd heard the truth immediately he would have had Philip arrested and fired him. But Sarah wanted Philip to be her mole to control her husband at work. Who never needed it as he's run Titan just fine on his own before.
    • Oh that's right. Thanks. Thanks @dc11786 I guess Conroy did last for a bit. Never knew why AW didn't see his potential either.
    • May 19, 2025 Fairman interviews Lynn Herring about the Nurses Ball. Excellent interview and no GH spoilers. CAUTION There is a minor DAYS spoiler from 12:15 to 14:15, so if you are Days spoiler-free, then skip those two minutes. Thus intentionally posting the link instead of embedding the youtube.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYXKsKa1xTE
    • Well life is full of surprises. And it's not the first time over the last few years the 'murder mystery' target has moved off a GH character. So...we'll see.

    • I'm not a Philip fan, but Xander is a kidnapping, murderous thug! I loathe Xander. I don't know why Sarah stays with him. The Stephanie manuscript sex book ...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... Yawn...this is the best they can write for Stephanie?
    • I agree. I like grey characters. But today veered to dark  Of course not. That's ludicrous 
    • They shouldn't be on the show anymore. The whole Dimera clan should've been written out long time ago. Xander once again turning to violence. He should be in jail. Is he going to beat up Sarah when Xander finds out Sarah lied to him?
    • A recent discussion in the Loving/City forum inspired me to re-read the history of Devon Shepherd.  According to contemporary sources to the plot, Devon never actually kissed Dr. Lynn Carson, PhD. I'd be eager to know if anyone recalls it differently.  My visual memory of Lyn was that she was always dressed in lady-professional drag of the 1980s.   And, that Donna Peskow never toned down her New York accent. Meanwhile, has there ever been a more boring offspring than Devon? On paper, she had it all.  Teen pregnancy, alcoholism, brief foray into bisexuality, adultery, Devon was always down to clown.  But, she was an eternal meekly mouse, with those tiny braids and that namby-pamby vocal tone.  Mr. Shepard must have been a huge nerd, because Devon inherited none of her mother's charm or elegance.  And, don't get me started on her terrible choices for romantic partners.  One can hardly blame Ellen for forgetting about Devon and pretending Julie was her daughter.

      Side note: Devon fell for Cliff Warner after her performed the Heimlich Maneuver on Bonnie and saved her from choking in 1984.  I don't know why this caused me to go on a side quest, but, the Heimlich Maneuver is a relatively recent innovation.  Up until 1986 the government still trained food workers to slap a person on the back in order to dislodge food.  Heimlich's treatment was superior, and in an effort to make it policy, ABC and the other networks agreed to air pro-Heimlich content starting in 1984, according to TV Guide.  So, Cliff was responsible for training mothers at home how to stop their kids from choking.
