New interview with Nathan Varni for anyone curious. I haven't listened yet but apparently he name drops Tristan Rogers at some point.

EDIT: The quote in regards to Tristan is below. Hmmm sounds like perhaps Tristan is back or perhaps is lumping him with Emma Samms "possibly" returning? I don't know if he's speaking hypothetically but it seems odd in combination with the fact that he's not denying Tristan coming back on Twitter, as he does with other rumors.

 

And it’s always great to have him back, because with Tony, I think you can play so many other characters, like Emma Samms possibly returning and Tristan, and all those great, great legacy characters, and it just makes the world more rich when we have possibility of Tony being around.

 

Also these quotes really stood out:

 

We are trying to get back to the emotional storytelling of the show, for the future episodes with the new writers, and just a lot more romance and really really kinda honing in on our core characters and coming back to the show and making it the show that everybody has loved over the years and I feel like we got off course just a little bit within the last year or so. But we are really trying to bring back the focus to our core central characters. We do have a lot of characters but I think if you can tell stories in a way that makes it feel like the characters are coming and going and stories are relevant, I think you won't miss people as much as some of the fans have missed people in the recent months. Our goal is not to tell stories and then drop stories. Our goal is to tell really detailed emotional type stories with our main characters. And bring the families together. That at least is our goal moving forward.

Well Tristan has dropped to recurring on Y&R

Tristan can leave Genoa City for good for all I'm concerned.

His YR character is annoyng and worse, and the kind of guy no one would even talk to. 

So I havent seen GH since end of last month. Can anyone recap 3 weeks of story bc I dont feel like watching it. All I know is that Silas was killed

I haven't watched GH since 2013; I gave up after decades of watching.  I knew it would eventually happen because I simply can't follow Ron's writing style or storytelling ...same thing happened when he took over @ OLTL.. 

I'm not sure if this new (but old) team of recycled writers can get me back into the show.  I'm really surprised they fired Ron (and even more surprised they kept Franks) ..wonder why?

 

 

Guys how encouraging that the actors are coming out in praise of smart tv. I just love this Rons writing apparently ends at end of October. Buzz so far is Jean and Shelly have not only smarten the scripts, better dialogue and we are in for an experience that will mimic the Labine and Riche days of GH. Thank god for these miracle workers and smart tv making it back on my screen I have tears.

No one can duplicate Labine/Riche

I know I'm coming back to a situation that could create a good story, fingers crossed, I want to have some fun! #GH

So Brad's talking about how he was married before and Rosalie is on for the first time in how many weeks? Rosalie is Brad's wife, we all called it. Let's just wait for that cliffhanger.

It's so out there, dumb and random that that is exactly what it has to be. I'm so glad Ron's gone.

It took that idiot, moRon, all this time to come of with THIS?  We should celebrate annually the day that POS got fired.  

I'll bring the champagne!   It should be like Independence Day

We all know Brad already being married was added in later, since Brad is the one that proposed to Lucas, not the other way around. Meaning Ron didn't have a clue what Rosalie's secret was when he added that into the early scripts. What a [!@#$%^&*] mess!

No one told moRon that, on a soap, what happened yesterday needs to tie to today.  Brad made the extravagant gesture and was married all along?  Had he accepted Lucas' proposal, that would have been different.  However, Brad proposed!  moRon is an idiot!  Bye bitch!  

Why exec Nathan Varni has no business overseeing a lemonade stand, much less General Hospital: "I have a lot of faith in the role of Kiki moving forward," Varni revealed. "I think Hayley[Erin] is doing a fantastic, admirable job as Kiki. I hope the character becomes more layered, and perhaps gets a job, and becomes more involved." WTF is he smoking?????
