Then Pratt should be fine because GH offers this very same thing and is thriving - no?

Frank and Ron unsystematically brought in about 20 new characters in 2 years and made the GH cast their supporting players. To boost ratings, they have recently added 2 divas that can't find work anywhere else when neither is needed. FrankenRon have not told one cohesive story to date. Not one! It is plot after plot after plot as they decimate what's left of the GH legacy.

When Pratt has an international terrorist, kidnapper, killer, baby snatcher as COS, all because he created the character, we can revisit this conversation. Monica lost her job because she help AJ evade the law. Why is Dr. O COS?

When Pratt puts a serial killer in the bed of a main character, tells no story but says in an interview, they have great chemistry and does very well with focus groups, we can revisit this.

When Pratt has toddlers with more airtime and "story" than adults, we can revisit this conversation.

When Pratt has embryos as lead characters [as well as have them used in exchange for freedom], we can revisit this conversation.

I will not be convinced the Pratt is worse than the garbage currently destroying General Hospital, and after watching 11 dreadful minutes of YR yesterday, bring on Chucky!

Can we please keep the discussion to Pratt please. It's not a compare to Frank and Ron post who btw are doing ratings gangbusters

Are people forgetting that Pratt also was on other soaps besides GH and AMC

Comparisons are already being made

Pratt was horrific for AMC. Yet I remember I think he garnered good ratings. He was pretty much what cancelled the show. it shows me though the bells have zero power at the show. I love Jean but I don't think JFP wanted her and set her up to fail. They never really worked together except a brief minute at OLTL. Anyways Pratt has a massive ego because he has had some success in prime time. I am nervous for y and r and realize JFP has way more power than we know. I honestly think Steve Kent and JFP are an item.

If Pratt takes the opportunity to re-build the Brooks family with Cam Mathison, I may give this a shot.

Child, bye.

What about Jean? she was at TWO soaps when they were canceled.

Since Emmys mean so much to you, Pratt won several when he was at Santa Barbara and GH

Not sure why I'm giving you the time of day, but it's Friday so I will say that I think my post was very positive and on topic. If GH is thriving with the same manure Pratt is being accused of, YR is in good hands!

ChitHappens, boo, I love you but I don't understand you one bit right now. All this is completely and utterly irrelevant. IDGAF if RC is worse. We're not talking GH.

There is one, undeniable truth: The show, "lucky" enough until now, is about to sink to new levels and new era of complete destruction. We're going from generally non-destructive boredom to all hell about to break loose.

God. This is so bad that even Cynthia Cidre would be welcomed!

lol. Alls I'm saying is that if GH can thrive with Craptini, what is the problem with Chucky? And it was basically in response to what Q said.

I'm not familiar with Pratt, but I'm sorry, NOTHING and I mean NOTHING is worse than Craptini!

It does make sense. Jonny praises GH and he critizes Pratt, while RC does the same thing and is worse.

Thank you! Why is Pratt the worst thing for YR as GH gets praise for the same crimes Pratt is being accused of? It's hypocritical at best.

  • Member

Why are we going off topic again? Whatever Ron and Frank are doing at GH has nothing to do with Pratr period. Pratt is a horrible choice for y and r. Extremely destructive person and ego. Even Lucci came out and said he was horrible. He writes plot points in the worst way. The stuart murder thing was horrific and Erica and Ryan as a couple. Thank god Lorraine came snd saved the day. She was great for amc but frons dumped her for Donna snd David. I don't get why Lorraine wasn't asked as she was perfect outside choice for the show. She has all the classic writing and resume to make it work.

Seriously? That's what this is about? We're going into discussion over something Jawnie'sbruh said?

Nevermind.

Pratt's hatred by some AMC and GH fans = RC's hatred by some OLTL and GH fans. It's as simple as that.
