Spot On is the best way to describe it. Spot the !@#$%^&*] on.

And as the article states people need to understand IT'S OK to criticize. I'm already regretting reading some of the comments because it's like some fans will do whatever it takes to excuse the bullshit that's going on.

Sorry, but it started off as crap, so it's difficult to lend credibility to anything else said.

Anyone who begins an article with "FrankenRon saved GH" is an idiot. The Revolution tanking and the subsequent tanking of GMIA saved GH. Brought back the vets? Where are they? Carlypalooza to showcase the great CarSon bond/hoax while AJ is dead when they never acknowledge what was done to him by CarSon?

Yawn!

Andrea, the last part is accurate (and very good points are made), but I get what you're saying. And to be honest, those shows tanking probably did save GH to some degree. Don't fool yourself. GH was GONE. Not to say that I'm going to just sit back and appreciate the show is on with the [!@#$%^&*] I'm being fed. And Ron needs to be told to get off of Twitter.

I agree that some of it was spot on, but the article started off very faulty, and it's difficult to get past that.

I know when writing an article, you have to appear to be objective, but you also have to state facts! 52 contracted characters was not mentioned at all. The OFFSCREEN "storytelling" was not mentioned. Yeah Ron is an asswhipe on Twitter, but that is not worth mentioning.

Tell me why FrankenTodd is a fail. Go into that detail. Why O as COS goes against everything a credible soap should be. I need more.

Oh I agree. There needs to be WAY more because I could probably write a small novel on what's wrong with this show. And the few things they do right shouldn't be used to excuse the [!@#$%^&*].

I love how one commenter said that Nathan's paternity should have waited. IT SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED AT ALL!

I hope he does (sort of) so he can make a fool out of himself trying to excuse and defend everything. But at the same time I also pray he doesn't because he comes off delusional. He has to realize that criticism is OK. The problem has been that his ego has been built up for years now and he's way too far up in the clouds to ever come down from it.

I can't believe that idiot started the article by saying RC and FV have done many things right. RC and FV are both damn fortunate to have jobs. There's no professionalism when it comes to RC.

Jim Reilly was a joke of a writer but he was so superior to Carlivati in every way.

By the time HacknHack came to GH, it was already saved. Not sure who recalls but Sweeney wanted all 3 gone with one bullet then decided that one show would be salvaged in case the replacements didn't work. Frons made the decision that GH would be survivor.

      I suspect we would have had a few withdrawals next year if Israel had won. I don't think many people would relish going to Jerusalem as things stand now. Not to mention it would have been a prime target for terrorist attacks.   
    • And they've given us plenty. Sets, outdoor scenes, music licensing, etc. And that was the point of me using DAYS... so. It's obvious the casino set is not intended for long-term use, hence why it's likely it wasn't as evolved as the other community sets, etc.

    • I just had thought of how to save the Perkins family. (Inspired by Rituals) -- What if Marisa Perkins was Augusta Lockridge's sister? Fictionally, they could've both been local girls, one married rich and one married poor. Originally, I was going to suggest that Marisa be Sophia's sister, but then I realized Joe and Kelly would've been first cousins.  Of course, it would've truly inspired Sophia was if Rosa Andrade sister, with Rosa and Santana moving in to help CC raise the kids once Sophia disappeared.  While this could've avoided both gross CC and Santana affairs, the times were not right for a story about intersectional inequity.
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJxW5DLJLId/ Another World is my forever favorite soap opera. But it's finale is almost universally hated by its fans. What this is, is an edit where I've deleted everything I didn't like!!!
    • The Perkins family had potential to be a nice alternative to the more dysfunctional Capwells and wackier Lockridges... but I think a few factors did in the family. 1) Recasting of Joe Perkins 2) Bad casting of the Perkins Patriarch, and the one note writing for that character. 3) Lack of antagonistic interaction between the Capwells/Lockridges and Perkins.  (There was no awkwardness between Jade/Ted.. or CC disapproving of his son being friends with that Perkins girl, etc). 4) Wasting of Jade thus wasting the potential of the actress (which was realized on Days of Our Lives).  She had more potential than Laken oddly enough. The only member of the Perkins family that had appeal and a somewhat thought out story arc was Amy.  
    • @GymnastGuyThanks for posting the three new Capitol 1985 episodes today. The two labeled March 12, and 13 are misidentified. The March 12 labeled one actually aired November 12 1985 which I figured out because Kenny Rogers' movie Wild Horses aired November 12th and it was announced over the "March 12" Cap credits. In addition, Craig Carlson is listed in the April credits but not the March. Craig left Capitol sometime after July 1985 before he rejoined OLTL in the credits by October 15, 1985; he was replaced on Cap by Radcliffe and Hamner. In these posted episodes Radcliffe/Hamner names appear in the March 85 episodes but not in the April.
