GH50: Discussion for the month of July...

[KMan101]

LOL yeah.

I guess I just see her as, eventually, an easy scapegoat, but maybe they'll surprise me and she will stick around.

[ChitHappens]

I read where DC finally admited the garbage that is FrankenTodd, and that had to be difficult, but you can blindly defend someone until it just doesn't make sense to do it any longer - not even to yourself.

I truly believe that if FrankenRon could get Todd Manning, they would - no matter how ridiculously stupid that would be.

[Vee]

The difference, Chit, is however we disagree even you know "Todd" is not the answer to this problem - giving GH back Todd because how can Ron be inconvenienced. They could've done another character for Roger, or utilized Franco properly. It's not either Todd or Franco.

[rhinohide]

But they can't.

[KMan101]

DC finally fell off the Ron train? 'Bout time. I tend to try and avoid that site. My eyes get stuck after rolling them so much.

+1000

Love that.

[ChitHappens]

You won't get any argument from me. We agree. As must as I loved my Tarly, you cannot bring him back. That's crazy and GH loses the little bit of its remaining credibility. It's time to let Roger go! I see no other solution [of course, I may have to eat those words in the not so distand future]!

ETA: Of all the characters they could have introduced, this was the best option? Shock and awe will take you but so far. I think EM posted a few weeks ago that Ron said he always wanted to write the character Franco [of course, we are to believe while he was hacking the sh!t out of OLTL, moRon was dreaming of GH's Franco?], so now that he got his wish, how does he feel? I hope it's as stupid as he looks!

[dragonflies]

they should have brought RH in as someone connected to Alexandria Quartermaine

[Vee]

Their solution is literally "OLTL really didn't need these characters back anyway, GH kept OLTL alive, they have Roger Howarth but OLTL sucks!" !@#$%^&*] off, Daytime Confidential. You can't always get what you want.

(And no, OLTL is not perfect, but I think it's pretty damn decent and Howarth's been well-used.)

[cassadine1991]

I agree this ISN'T Burger King, you CAN'T have it your way!

They still favor ABC, because of the sainted Cartini...

I still say that IF Carlivati and Valentini went to PP's OLTL, they would be calling it the greatest soap ever

[reallyhateskateonlost]

Lol Sonny scolding Milo.

Franko and Ava have been in the Q's house, I mean Monica's house for 2 weeks!!

Go home to Scotty Laura! UGH!

Ahhh Sonny and Carly made up.

[rhinohide]

Well if Cartini kept OLTL alive, I'd hate to see how they'd go about killing it. And if that was why they wanted the OLTL 3, then once OLTL was resurrected for reals, the should have happily written them out. Their work here was done.

[Vee]

They stopped just short of saying GH should have him back - they basically said PP isn't using the three characters (or using them well, in their opinion) so it's awful, etc etc. They rarely discuss the actual PP shows, but then I haven't listened to that insane podcast in awhile - it's gotten pretty histrionic. To their credit they went on at length about the disaster of GH's Franco story, but they really didn't discuss the actual content of AMC and OLTL. (They did compliment AMC quickly, though, while dissing OLTL.)

[cassadine1991]

i guess not having Todd as a total joke and a total buffoon is not using him well..

[AlexElizabeth]

Sigh. When is Monica going to kick these fools out? Or just burn the place down with them in it?

[Vee]

The Eckerts, everybody!
