About the Sabrina debate.... a lot of people hated and some even despised Tea Delgado on OLTL. People hate Sabrina for the same reasons. And while Florencia screeched a lot, she was a much better actress than Teresa Castillo. Mostly because TC sucks the life out of scenes. The guy who plays her sounding board/sycophant/gay stereotype Felix is even worse.

Here's an unpopular opinion: I also think the name 'Sabrina' is stupid. No one else has mentioned that.

Whoever said that Cartini is overhyped...I certainly hope that's not unpopular to believe! Ron Carlivati has always sucked and has always been childish. It's just more blatant and obvious now with his "soapy" stories and his childish juvenile twitter rants.

I love Britt on GH. I also like Kelly Thiebaud, who seems OK as an actress. The one thing about her that bothered me was her teeth but she doesn't act with her teeth much anymore.

My favorite 'couple' on Passions was T.C. and Liz (Eve's crazy sister played by Amelia Marshall). Also liked Gwen/Ethan for a while (never cared for Ethan though). I also liked Theresa/Jared a lot and thought Ethan was annoying as hell.

Never liked Chandler Massey on DAYS. Not only was he annoying, he wasn't even attractive. The other actors that played Will weren't any better though, in terms of acting or looks. So I never liked the character at all.

I guess I need to take this topic. back from the strawman. I guess KA/Kiki could say she's hated because she's boring but I mostly notice other reasons. Some of the reasons are she instantly put in a triangle for the sole purpose of being with her real life boyfriend. She's a bad actress. She's one of the OLT 3 and some GH fans never could accept her for the circumstances surrounding her depature and return to GH. People also make fun of her appearance and how she pronounces words.

Franco is hated because he's a serial killer whose actions were whitewashed by rectons in order to stay on canvas. His parentage was rectonned because RC wanted him to have living parents even though said parents are vets that have been treated like dayplayers and cartoon villians.

I don't know anything about Daniel Jonas.

Not sure but I think he's on DAYS as Jennifer's new man. I'm too busy to watch soaps so I don't really watch DAYS. I heard he's universally despised and rightfully so.

Roger Howarth is typecast as despicable characters who are always being sugarcoated and canonized. First Todd Manning, and now Franco. I'm usually at work when GH is on so I can just DVR the show and skip the crap I don't want to see. Or I watch to see how horrific it is. I agree Kristen Alderson is very annoying. She was one of the most overused and overhyped actresses ever on OLTL. But some of the insults about her are ridiculous.

Daniel Jonas sleeps with all his female patients. They usually end up obsessed with him and do out of character things to hold onto him while he always ends up looking like the hero despite the lives he hurts. Too many woman have been ruined over him. He is incredibly propped by most of the characters he comes in contact and the select few that dont worship the ground he walks on of course are looked down upon. There are fans that also resent him for the destruction of Jack and Jennifer as even when she was with Jack, it was obvious she was only settling bc she wanted Daniel. Jack then died of course and the show ever since has revolved around the trials and tribulations of Daniel and Jennifer who act like teens breaking up and getting back together. Its nauseasting and their scenes are beyond repetitive. I didnt even get into the retcon that made him Maggie's son and ruined her in the process

Well I liked him as Paul on ATWT and he's okay as Franco so far. I never really saw Todd. I knew of him but never watched when he on GH or OLTL.

I think him Carly are boring and are forced and I hate how they made Heather his mother. She needs to be written off the show completely.

Yep. He had a twin named Ryan who was on the show before Kevin (Ryan was JL's original character) Once they figured out that they couldn't do much more with Ryan....except for throw him in the fruity farm. The EP (Wendy Riche at the time) decided to keep JL around and write a good twin character for him to play.

It's one of the few instances that I can think of where someone evil has a good twin show up. It's usually the opposite way.

    • Uh, yeah, huh?!!! Seriously, that was a brilliant line but its acumen is strictly from how hilarious. We imagine Joss in Carly's kitchen breaking the news that she's realized she's gay & Carly is unconcerned & then drops that it's Emma she's in love with ... time comes to a screeching halt!!! I think Moss would likely be thrown hard against the wall. Can you imagine Carly & Robin as mothers of the brides together? 
    • @DRW50 Thanks for these. I had a procedure on my eyes and was just okayed for limited screen time the other day, but it is in short periods until Tuesday, when the doctor clears me.  I'll be adding in bits here and there, but Hoppers will be "hopping" after that. Upcoming: Rest in Peace, Denise Alexander, Ruth Buzzi and Priscilla Pointer Updating:   Max Gail, @Xanthe -- Will Lyman, who was lost in the shuffle a year ago, but his update from last year will be typed up;  New: Michelle Hurd and Shanola Hampton and others I'll b updating the edit-able profiles, too.
    • Upcoming on Friday

      The shoulders and sleeves are too tight. He'd benefit from a larger size. The yellow arrows show where the shoulder cut should actually be placed in my opinion. I don't mind the granpa fashion per se, I just have an OCD with sizes LOL
    • Today May 11, 2025, Pope Leo briefly addressed the crowd in the square.  He sang the prayer to Mary and then said:   Dear brothers and sisters, The immense tragedy of the Second World War ended eighty years ago, on 8 May, after having claimed sixty million victims. In today’s dramatic scenario of a piecemeal third world war, as Pope Francis stated many times, I too address the world’s leaders, repeating the ever-timely appeal: “Never again war!”. I carry in my heart the sufferings of the beloved Ukrainian people. May everything possible be done to reach an authentic, just and lasting peace, as soon as possible. Let all the prisoners be freed and the children return to their own families. I am deeply saddened by what is happening in the Gaza Strip: may there be an immediate ceasefire! Let humanitarian aid be provided to the stricken civil population, and let all the hostages be freed. On the other hand, I have welcomed with satisfaction the announcement of the ceasefire between India and Pakistan, and I hope that through the upcoming negotiations, a lasting accord may be reached soon. https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/angelus/2025/documents/20250511-regina-caeli.html
    • Lol! I'm quite sure it would. 
    • But that is pretty much situation normal for all soaps. They do not tend to continue to show things like surgical scars. They also play fast & loose with hospital procedures.
