December 4, 201411 yr Member Guza is leagues above Carlivati! Yeah, Guza killed off the Qs and put all of his energy into CarSaSon, but at least he told stories and had good script writers. moRon is NOT a writer and this GH is an embarrassment. Even the bloggers masquerading as soap press can't pretend with this mess! Its no coincidence that Craptini are awardless! Guza never wrote any stories. He can't even construct a story usually, and he and his dialogue writers were dreadfully consistent in their incompetence. Stories under Guza were actually anti-stories where nothing happened and two people share scenes where they discuss the state of their couplehood or recap what they said yesterday. There was never point A to point B in his stories and no plot progression ever. I can't even think what stories Carly starred in. I know she was pregnant a lot, I know Lorenzo liked her, but two characters liking each other is not a story. Neither is being pregnant. She was on every day for ten years and you got me what stories she appeared in. Same for Sonny and Jason. RC presents a villain, they have a scheme, we have heroes, and then the plots unfold from point A to B to C until the story is over. It's a story, maybe not one anybody on this particular site likes, but a story nevertheless. The Luke thing is more of a story than anything Laura Wright or Steve Burton starred in under Guza. I think Guza's idea of a story for Carly was she was pregnant and read magazines. Edited December 4, 201411 yr by quartermainefan

December 4, 201411 yr Member Which GH is that? We have clowns, retcons, plots, plots and more plots! +1 RC doesn't do stories, he does plot points/plot devices
December 4, 201411 yr Member Which GH is that? We have clowns, retcons, plots, plots and more plots! +2 There are no points A,B, and C. I have never seen a writer completely skip the middle of a story (aka the actual development) the way Ron does.
December 4, 201411 yr Member Which GH is that? We have clowns, retcons, plots, plots and more plots! +3 In the long haul, there is no character development that emerges from his 'stories' either. It's all lather, wash, and repeat.
December 4, 201411 yr Member Which GH is that? We have clowns, retcons, plots, plots and more plots! What's wrong with plot? I will take all plot all the time vs years of Sonny or Alexis or Liz just sitting around in no energy, dull two person scenes discussing the current state of their coupledom. No talent Rick Hearst, No talent Ted King, constant discussing of Sonny by everyone in town, Carly and Courtney, years of Sam whispering and crying....give be rubber masks any day of that crap.

He kept most of the GH writers from previous regimes unlike Carlivati who fired everyone and brought in the worst of his OLTL crew

I dunno....at some point you have to tell a story. No?

December 5, 201411 yr Member I don't think that Ric Hearst or Ted King are untalented, their characters were written by hack Guza, who created characters to go against Sonny that were one-dimensional, just there to hate Sonny. Neither actor could help the crap writing. All they did was do their job.

Neither actor could help the crap writing. All they did was do their job. Thats bogus. Billy Warlock, Constance Towers, John Ingle...many actors came on GH and actually possessed even the slightest bit of charisma and TV presence, and consequently they shined. Nobody is more one dimensional than Helena, and yet she is fun. The fact that Rick Hearst and Ted King were as riveting as corpses in the morgue is entirely the byproduct of their own screen presence. I dunno....at some point you have to tell a story. No? Guza proved you don't. He didn't tell one in 15 years. Edited December 5, 201411 yr by quartermainefan
December 5, 201411 yr Member Guza proved you don't. He didn't tell one in 15 years. I HATE Guza but I am sorry. He told stories. Stories I didn't like [and were one-sided] but he told him. At least his stories had a beginning, middle, and end. Ron's stories begin just fine, lose steam and meaning in the middle, and the ending is sh*t. No one takes away anything. No one tries to improve themselves. There's no growth. I haven't seen ONE character grow on this show since RC took over. Not in the slightest.
December 5, 201411 yr Member Guza proved you don't. He didn't tell one in 15 years. If that's what you need to believe.

All of RC characters are…thats why she is fun but not in a good way. Rick Hearst > Billy Warlock…..hell even Ted King is better than Billy….
