No offense but Jed Allen was not Edward. He was a place holder because GH over estimated Edward Q popularity when they fired John Ingle. Then only giving him recurring status. GH shuld have put him back on contract from the start

I liked David Lewis better. Ingle's Edward was a clown to me. We all have our favs.

I enjoyed JA's Ed especially his relationship with Skye

OLTL came close when it honored the late Clint Ritchie the day before Viki's wedding to Charlie Banks - Jerry verDorn had been in the role for a number of years by then, but they showed a big picture of Ritchie as she told Gigi about all her marriages and said "Clint was so different then". That was the right thing to do. And of course they did the Asian Blair gag at Asa's fake funeral in 2001, when Blair looked in her compact, all confused.

I wish more shows would be so free about their recasts. Just show the originals or past performers. It's the right thing to do.

I was going to say the Asian Blair joke but Vee covered it.

When Lila died on GH, they showed a montage and included clips of the original Edward and the original Emily.

Yea, I knew about the Blair jokes but I'm glad to hear there were other circumstances were they weren't making a joke of it. I agree, they should do it more often. It doesn't make any sense why they treat it as so taboo.

No offense, but neither JA's Edward nor RC's Skye are Quartermaines to me. They are both imposters.

I'm still so mad they killed off A.J. and I don't even particularly like A.J. that much. But he's a Q. You don't kill off a Q. Frank and Ron are now no better than Phelps and Guza, IMO. Sad to see GH sink this low.

I'm ok with Skye cause Alan did legally adopt her. JA is a good actor, Just not Edward. Wonder how close talks got with Lloyd Bochner back in 2004 for the role? loved JI and loved DL. They were two different takes but true to the heart of Edward Q

There is a difference, though, between using clips w/ previous actors in this-or-that role as flashbacks, and making cheap jokes about the fact that that role hasn't always been played by the same actor. When shows do the latter, IMO, they call unmerited attention to themselves and spoil the notion that these are fully realized worlds for the audience to "escape" into.

Why did they blur out the actors in the distance?

Speaking of public office, whatever happened to the Julian and Scott connection? It almost seemed like they were going to have Julian blackmail Scott into doing his bidding and letting him slide on things, yet that seemed to fizzle and go nowhere

You know Ron forgot about that but now that you posted it, in three months it'll be the focus of a MAJOR STORYLINE (!!!!!!) which will show us simple minded viewers that Ron sure does know 'bout them soaps!

Is it in Ryan Paevey's contract that he has to be shirtless once a week or something?

Most of GH's young studs have that clause. It's called the Valentini Clause.

lmao

"Pink Dust"

DEAD

Wasn't it the same on OLTL?
