GH: May 2014 Discussion Thread

I agree. I'm no defender of precocious children, as a matter of fact, I can't stand them, but he is a child and as far as the writing/concept for Spencer is concerned, and what this little boy is being asked to do, he's doing an excellent job. Definitely a "don't hate the player..." scenario. This kid is sailing to college on the crest of this foolishness.

[Vee]

Uh, I think he's doing an okay job. He's not much of an actor, but he seems like a sweet little boy and he's got a lot of personality. And he puts his whole body into it - he practically physically hurls himself through scenes while hollering. In that way it's school play-level, do what makes the adults laugh, but there doesn't seem to be much directing for him.

[DRW50]

I think the boy who plays Spencer mostly just does his job, but I can't say I see a lot of talent or future ability. I always see him acting. Sadly, this is true for most of the people on the show today.

[SFK]

At that age and with that dialogue, I don't know that I could expect much better from another actlet.

[Nate4]

Who'd ronn play?

[Vee]

I'm not sure you can, which is why they shouldn't be doing a lot of it IMO. It's just so forced. A little of the kid goes a long way but they just keep pushing it.

[Soapsuds]

Ronn

A better younger actor could pull it off even though the writing is atrocious!! This younger actor just plain sucks.

[SFK]

ReRonn, how fitting. *Bea Benaderet laugh*

See, that's the thing, I don't think there's a plethora of Oliviers in that age range bouncing around Hollywood. We'd just get another kid whose momager's still holding out for the Disney sitcom.

[Vee]

Did I forget to mention that the use of AC/DC for the stripper routine is pretty much the end of their "three packs of smokes" budget for 2014? There goes Genie Francis. And craft services. And air conditioning.

Who was that random singer?

I did like the way they panned the camera during the songs.

Michael as CEO? He's uncomfortable taking off his shirt, yet he's going to run a multi-million dollar company? Bambi will flop!

Sam couldn't even look interested in her song. KM needs to liven up!

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH to Kaka in another song. She doesn't even interact w/ Lulu or Maxie.

Piph flirting w/ Milo! Murdering Mr. Marbles! God love ya, Sonya Eddy!

Thank you all for no Bruce Jenner!

Wow! Hey Mrs. Ronn Moss. He can't even act when he's playing himself.

Tracey needs a clue!

Ned should be CEO!

[Cheap21]

WTF is wrong with Epiphany? Was that supposed to be funny? She needs her big fat ass kicked

Why the heck would Ned name Michael CEO instead of himself? Why would the board choose Michael over Tracy?

LMAO at Britt jamming in the background as Brad sung

[Toups]

Spencer with the knee slide and open arms. Kid is good with physical acting. I never knew Ronn Moss was part of a band and never of Player. I kind of like that song. I'm warming to Brit&Brad as friends - first them watching the NB together (eating ice cream, laughing at Sam) and now Brit dancing while Brad was singing. Sonny jamming to a couple of songs was funny too.

[John]

GH gave kid stories before mainly Robin but that was tied to her parents, Duje, Frisco & Felecia. They were all main parts of those stories

The issue I havewith Emma/Spence/Cam is that they got A story and the parents support

They dont support they walk in & oit of rooms and spotting lines as they go

GH writes Spencer OTT and I cant relate to him at all

[Soapsuds]

The difference is KM could ACT as a young actress. The one playing Spencer just plain sucks. He can't act! Like I think Vee said...or whoever said it..he is acting...its like a bad play.

Toups I am surprised at how you like this actor..he is horrid...the only good part was Brit dancing to Brad's song and the friendship...the rest was pure crap.
