Characters that you wonder why are still on the canvas?

[Soapsuds]

My number 1 is Kevin from Y&R. Why is he still on this show??????????????????????????

Cane from Y&R...Why??

[slick jones]

Ditto

Why bring back Natalie for that matter?

 

GH-- Droolian, Ninny, Franko, Nathan, Valkyrie (who they haven't used almost at all the last few months) Kiki

 

Days...the looming shadow of the late Daniel Jonas. We only see Maggie grieve for Mickey at Christmas. When most soap characters die, they get occasional mentions. This guy will get comments til the show gets cancelled.

I think Cane is a good asset to the show if he able to lose the dead weight that is Lily. If he was with any other character he'll be divorce & sleeping around right about now.

[John]

DOOL -Sonny. He does nothing. His "Romance" with Paul wont be given anything outside of kissing. Id rather they just develop Paul. He is more interesting. 

 

I hate writing that as I loved Sonny in 2011-2015 but not now

[Soapsuds]

They aint going to write for either one. Days should have ended long ago.

[AlexElizabeth]

GH - Franco. I just don't get it. And 90% of the cast honestly. But especially him, Nina and Julian.

I'm almost torn on Cane in away. I hate Cane and find the actor very mediocre but still like the fact he has a a connection to Jill and Jill has young grand kids to spoil. I think the idea of Cane originally in retrospect sounds a whole lot better than MAB's "correction story". I loved the Cane and Nina interaction at Katherine's faux/Marge's funeral in 2008 but what might have been never occurred. Realistically the show should have just brought back Phillip IV in 2006 to generate Katherine and Jill's story and a whole of on unnecessary mess would have been avoided. 

 

But yeah Kevin and and Chloe on Y&R are done and I just ask why are they still here as well. 

 

Days: Why the heck was Daniel Jonas haunting my screen recently? 

 

B&B: Wyatt. How long before he sleeps with Brooke or sleeps with a back in town Taylor just cause a ruckus?

[KeMoLove]

GH: Franco, Nina, Nathan, Hayden, Finn, Andre, Valerie, Julian

 

B&B: Wyatt, Pam, Caroline

 

Y&R: Devon, Abby, Stitch, Kevin, Natalie

 

DOOL: Rafe, Ciara, Claire, Dario, Nicole

[kalbir]

Cane, Lily, Kevin, Chloe, Chelsea, Abby, Stitch, Dylan, Summer all can go and it won't be a big loss. I'm going to keep saying Y&R needs a good cast purge until one actually happens.

[SweetPea36]

 

That's actually a pretty complete list. I would love it if they recast the roles of Victoria and Nick, but I can't imagine that level of wish fulfillment happening.

[Cheap21]

Caroline last aired in october. She got written out by going back to NY. The actress got dropped to recurring which means we may or may not see her again

[frequentsoapfan]

Really half the characters on GH serve no damn purpose. And majority are also played by lackluster actors

[KMan101]

 

God that's the truth

 

DAYS:

Rafe

Gabi

Eduardo

Dario

Deimos

Jade

Joey (mostly the actor)

 

GH:

Julian

Franco

Nina

Sam

Jason

Sonny

Alexis

Kristina

Nathan

Maxie

Dillon

Kiki

Valerie

Hayden (should be Sarah Webber)

Finn (should be Tom Hardy)

 

Y&R:

Kevin

Chloe

Chelsea

Cane

Lily

Stitch (he's made one appearance so far under Sussman so that's a start)

Dylan (he's going soon)

Abby

Summer

 

He would have been a good new version of Brad Carlton, but now he's boring and lifeless paired with Lily.

Most of these characters have either been gone well over a year and were one-off characters that were on briefly.\

 

Sgt. Robinson on GH  is a background character at the desk on GH.  He is hardly someone that could bother anyone standing around in the background. 

 

You also brought up the entire Winters clan and Leslie/ Barton on Y&R which leaves Y&R white-washed.
