GH 50: Discussion for the Month of April - May 3, 2013

They showed my faith roscoe

OMG Ian said he had nothing on under the kilt during Anna and Duke's wedding

Lol. Criticizing Ron and Frank based on what I know of them through years of experience is bad. I get it. And I don't watch the show. So my comments are usually in the context of what I know about the holy duo. They weren't terrible on OLTL all the time. But their weaknesses are profound. What first appear as tiny hairline fissures eventually become compound fractures. They were refreshing at first for GH viewers. Mileage will vary.

Just watched the 20/20 special they ripped off a lot of youtube clips..... Laziness ABC

[rhinohide]

Lol. Surprised?

[Mr. Vixen]

I doubt that they were ripping anything from YouTube. The clips they showed were much better quality than most of what's on YouTube and why would they take the time to download a YouTube clip and remaster it when they could simply go into their own archives to get the clip?

[Marco Dane]

If you look closely it has LoriJoGH's indent in the corner they just blurred it out, Look at parts when they show the blurs

[jfung79]

If that's what happened, considering ABC allows these clips to be up on YouTube instead of being rigid about copyright, and they are the ultimate rights holders, I don't see the problem. Sounds mutually beneficial.

[Cheap21]

Does it really matter where the clips came from? ABC owns the copyright to ALL the GH clips posted on YT, whether it was uploaded by LoriGH or whomever. If they wanted to be douches, they could and would have shut all those channels down, (other networks are QUICK to do so) but they haven't. If they want to take from there and put it on a special celebrating GH, then they are well within their right bc once again, they own all that footage. I cant believe the network is being badmouthed for this. SMH

[jfung79]

Haha, we both posted similar things at the same time.

[chicklitsandfantasies]

Um but who the hell is going wild over pickled relish in these times?

[rhinohide]

To be fair. It was LAZY. That's all that was said. Abc ripped off clips from YouTube rather than paying someone on staff to edit something from their archives. It's lazy. And cheap.

[Marco Dane]

+1

[Eric83]

You have been killing me over and over again today.

Hope the 20/20 special ends up on Youtube.

[Mr. Vixen]

Agreed.
