GH: June 2014 Discussion Thread

There is no way Sean Blakemore can be in a major role. He might be the worst actor on the show, even worse than Ryan Paevey.

Nah.

And the little kid playing Spencer, while adorable, isn't really acting. He's flailing around and hamming it up for a very appreciative, affectionate group of adults. They give him antics and precocious lines and he just throws his whole body into it and that's enough for them. Sometimes I enjoy it, but I wouldn't call it much acting.

Nina and Nathan were cute today. Ryan definitely brought it a bit more with Michelle.

Well its a vast improvement from Morrow to Ryan in the looks department. Seriously Morrow isnt no Oscar winner either in the acting department.

Seriously if you had the chance to act opposite either Joshua or Ryan...who would you pick?? Not a HARD choice...lol

At least RP when he reads his cue cards makes feeble but commendable attempts at conveying emotion. Blakemore is just a dead tree, a lump who barely moves his face, can't use his voice for dramatic emphasis, and usually just stands there iike part of the furniture. The kid who plays TJ is miles better than he is. Heck, the kid who plays Spencer is too.

Of course the actual worst actor remains Roger Howarth.

Nonsense!

lol. Dude's been in jail for over a month OFFSCREEN! Morons!

To be fair, that has been his best acting to date.

Yes. Craptini changed it to her hiding Kaka from Silazzz, so her serial killer husband was the best option. Why were they married? It just makes no sense. Oh, this is GH. Of course it makes no sense!

I don't know the original version. But in RC's version, Franco hates Ava because she hid/kept Kiki from him. Even though Ava was hiding Kiki's paternity, she wasn't hiding Kiki from Silas, Silas didn't know she existed. In this version, they were never married. Ava left Franco because he was obsessive about the baby. Why specifically she felt naming Franco as the father was a better option than Silas hasn't been parsed out---but it seems reasonable to assume Ava feared being outted as Silas' mistress would have landed him in jail for trying to kill Nina.

This show is like watching fan fiction.

Except I'm sure there are fans out there who could do it so much better.

What the !@#$%^&*]? This is mess. What a convoluted series of unfortunate events for the viewer. Twists, reversals, musical pa-/maternity does not constitute good storytelling. Such crap is one of the many things I disliked about what they did at OLTL. The audience needs to know that some things are set in stone, that some things are firmly established and true. I can't emotionally commit to a soap opera, a program of a genre which should rely upon and anticipate my emotional investment, when I'm gut guarded, blocked, fearing, knowing, that anything I accept as fact will be yanked up from under my feet in a matter of weeks. It's not clever, it's not fun, it's not edge of my seat aha!, it's just annoying. These jokers would have Phoebe as Erica's teen mom who sold her to barren Mona, the true genesis of their animosity.

And yet our two statements are not mutually exclusive!

When I say hiding, I mean that Ava didn't want Silazzz to know she was preggers with his child.

Here's Anna again, looking like a complete idiot. As Diane mentioned to Liz, Ric is way too smart to A. Keep the gun and B. Have his freakin prints all over it. Love that Molly supports her dad and keeps calling dumbass teenage Alexis out on being convinced due to getting laid.

I get that the bad guys have to get away with things to remain on the show, but the level of stupidity that they bring the cops down to for it to work is just insulting.

I'm still stuck on Thursday and Michelle Stafford's pathetic attempts at appearing sweet and loving and oh-so-genuine. The fact that we had to sit through several, 2-minute-plus scenes with Coma Ho and Ostrich Boy was relentlessly painful. Please God, let her secretly be nuts. If not, then this bitch must be 100% clueless for wanting a man who hasn't seen her for 20 years to sleep with her on her first night back. You just know Ron wants her to be full-fledged Phyllis 2.0. After all, it's not as if Stafford is playing anything more than Phyllis' giggly-"hey girl" dimension. It's literally the same character.

I'm glad someone pointed out the absurdity of Nina showing up at Danny's party, although it was done in tandem with "she's so beautiful and fragile." Well, hope John McShit doesn't break her vagina when they have their wheelchair sex, then.

What else happened? Oh, some sh!t with STFUCarly and Ava "Bitch, I'm pregnant!" Jerome.

And Patrick crying. Patrick's been crying nonstop for years.
