Members DRW50 Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 Oh yeah the little I've seen of that period isn't good. Have you rewatched and of the '76 or '77 clips that are on Youtube? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members victorlord75 Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 I have seen some 1977 on YouTube, but virtually none of 1976, which is a testament to how bad it was. Almost whole episodes were devoted to Bobbi Jordan's Terri Webber singing at her club. The late actress was talented when it came to drama, but, and I hate to speak ill of the dead, her singing caused me to tune out more than once!

Members YRBB Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 Wasn't the 1976-1977 period what led GH to near cancellation, thus bringing Marland in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members victorlord75 Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 Yes. My mother was a faithful viewer of the show for many years, but after the blood bath that started in 1975, where Henry, Sharon, Lucille, Lee and his wife Caroline, and Jane were written out, my mother stopped watching and had zero interest in the new characters, including the newly created Webber brothers and their sister, Terri. "I don't know these people that are on now," she complained. And she never returned as a regular viewer before her passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 While I do too, I said the same thing about Paul....then he got destroyed. These hacks will grind him to dust in favor of Big Red and the altar they have to Franco like everyone else ... @KMan101...I've been trying not to engage, but I was already cranky from other things, and he hit my last nerve... Laura, Tracy, Monica and Bobbi are at least written for by these 2, but Tracy should be dealing with ELQ, the hospital board,etc.. Bobbi/Monica at the hospital, and Laura has no apparent job. What about the old Deception rumors? Or her old job with runaways? According to SOD, Michael is most ruined character...They don't even use him. The biggest mistake of the year was not making Sobby's kid his.. At least there'd be another Q out there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 Thanks. Goes to show the power of beloved characters & how dangerous it is to treat them badly, or get rid of them. This saddens me. God, I hope not. They have the opportunity to keep him around longterm, if only they don't turn him into an irredeemable monster.

Members KMan101 Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 Yeah, that's true. He could easily go the way of Paul. Hopefully not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 They had a solid actor in a legacy role and suddenly he was driveling about poor Susan. BTW--no mention of Susan since, after Tracy and Dillon said they would take care of her....She must be hanging with Lucas...LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And instead of using Lucas they throw in a random dayplayer doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 Exactly...dayplayer doctors instead of Lucas every time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 His salary per episode may say otherwise... and I'm 100% sure it doesn't 'say' anything they'd like to hear.

Members slick jones Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 What does the current regime have against gay characters? Is it because they can't find a decent gay storyline to copy, or a railroad to kill one off with? Please register in order to view this content I think we need a little Lucas these days...

Members Ponds Posted December 15, 2016 Members Share Posted December 15, 2016 I have skipped watching the last 4 episodes that are on my DVR. Not only am I not missing this soap, I actually feel better at the end of the day that I haven't forced myself to watch sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
