Major families you disliked

I wish Carmen had ANOTHER daughter, someone who's character was stronger than Pilar (LoCicero, Melgar or Lozano could've been an interesting choice)

[robbwolff]

Sadly, the Winslow brothers and the Santos clan are what made this long-time Guiding Light fan tune out for good, though I did love the original Father Ray.

I agree. Pilar was a sap. All I remember her time being on the show was constant whining. But I could see how she'd be like that as Pilar came off as sheltered. But Flo Lozano would've killed it as an elder Santos daughter. I think she would've been hot opposite Grant Aleksander too and another rival for Olivia.

Oh, if Florencia Lozano had been hired to portray a Santos family daughter, I definitely would have had more interest in that particular family.

Danny was the only member of the Santos family that I liked. I loved him and Michelle together.

[amybrickwallace]

Every time I hear about the Winslows, I think of Family Matters. LOL

[Mitch]

God..I HATE most of those characters....Danny and Carmen were okay as the Bauers needed foils..but the rest..especially those damn princes! Though I did love Olivia but wish CC was a recast Amanda Spaulding.

[cassadine1991]

Wasn't Amanda being Brandon's daughter instead of Alan's a retcon?

[Khan]

Yes, it was -- and it was badly done, too.

[amybrickwallace]

Why am I not surprised that it was badly done? LOL

[Mitch]

But they also wisely went back to her being Alan's daughter during Taggert...she just "was," mentioned as his daughter and that was that. I wanked it that Roger changed results wills etc to accomplish it and Alan and Alex got back their brains and did a DNA (Alex "Well we have enough of her hair clogging the sinks!") test and that was that.

[cassadine1991]

That explanation wasn't good enough, they should've had Roger switch those results and had a storyline based on it like when Roger died in 2004 with Amanda returning

[katie_9918]

Oh, thank God they took back that retcon.

I was always waiting for the other shoe to drop due to "Jennifer Richards" on that retconned, fake birth certificate. The name was JANE MARIE STAFFORD, dammit!

[amybrickwallace]

I never saw that story - but WOW. It sounds like GL dropped the ball big time.

[Khan]

Worst of all, it was just so unnecessary, a latest Shocking Plot Twist that went absolutely nowhere.
