So, with no clue whatsoever, Sam and "Drew" are going to run an international publishing corporation....

 

While Anna is out "tripping the light fantastic" with dull as dishwater Finn, poor Andre gets the curb again?  Poor Anthony Montgomery doesn't even get "Winters Wednesdays"

 

I still enjoy that Donnell Turner can be in scenes with anyone on the canvas, and they always work.

 

Tired of "bad guy " Nelle stories.She should be caught between Dillon and Michael.

 

About time Father Do-Right hit the sheets with the devil...

 

Nin-ugh adds zero to the show.

Nice  to see Laura, Kevin, Jessica Tuck, Fred Grandy (Love Boat).

 

Can Rita (Suanne Spoke) the bartender come to The Floating Rib or Kelly's?

I think everything about GH is ludicrous !   Sam & Jason go into the same seedy bar right after Steve Burton leaves.....it's NYC for christesake not Mayberry.  Steve Burton needs to go back to the midwest and retire permanently.  That glazed over look isn't selling it.

For anyone that wants to know why Kristina and Parker moved to Oregon...

"Manyfans have contacted Soaps.com about the status of Ashley Jones (Parker Forsyth) and Lexi Ainsworth (Kristina Corinthos). Rumors have been circulating that both have been fired from "General Hospital." The show does not comment on casting matters, but Soap Opera Digest is reporting that the October 11 episode, in which Parker and Kristina left Port Charles to move to Oregon, was their last episode for the foreseeable future. Lexi Ainsworth is currently filming multiple episodes of Major Crimes and Ashley Jones will be appearing on CBS' "NCIS" as Nancy Douglas on October 24 at 8:00 PM. When asked on Twitter if viewers would see Parker return to Port Charles, Jones stated, "Time will tell" and advised fans to, "hang tight." ABC executive Nathan Varni replied to a fan in regard to their show status and explain, "Yes, we had hoped to continue the story longer but one of the actresses booked another big show. Pausing for now but hope to continue later."

They need to just cut the crap and admit they: 1. Never had any true intentions for Parker/Kristina. Like all LGBTQ couples on daytime, they are used to generate some press coverage. 2. They don't plan on bringing them back b/c they've stupidly lost both actresses instead of locking them down into contracts. 

 

GH is so abysmal to the point I want them to pull the plug.

I'm happy they're gone.  I'm definitely not homophobic, but I just couldn't stand the fact that Kristina looks like a preteen and it made Parker look like a predator.  I'm relieved that it's over and if they want to do another lesbian storyline, get actors that actually look like they should be attracted to one another.

They didn't lose either actress. Neither has a contract with any show. Major Crimes is on its last season and LA already finished filming her stint. I think the show wrapped filming completely. People said AJ is hoping for a GH return. The got a recurring role thing is just an excuse. Neither one is a great actress and both characters are horrible so its not like they needed to lock them down into contracts. They arent in high demand.

    • Well, no new episode tomorrow, but you should do a catch up. It's worth it!
    • *Gavrilo Princip has entered the chat* I haven't watched BTG in approximately two months because of the busy season at work, but now it's summer, and I'll have time to get back into it. Do y'all think that I should do the 21st century binge-watching thing and attempt to catch up on everything I missed or should I do the traditional soap thing and just start watching again tomorrow and figure everything out from there?
    • A few days late but this made me holler so bad and immediately took.me back 29 years when I first saw this. I still remember thinking Rick and Phillip were going hold each other and dance together LOL. Rick being there at least makes some sense as he was A-M’s second cousin and the show still at least recognized he was half Bauer, at least until Hearst left.  The whole Universal Studios wedding was over the top. I think someone wanted A-M and Lucy to be the next GL super couple but once Hearst left the A-M recast flopped and both were gone by early ‘97 with Lucy never appearing ever again.    Love the rest of your post, summer 1996 was the first time GL left me feeing…greatly underwhelmed until it inspired righteous indignation on my behalf once we get to the Gilly twist.
    • You're right. I think she was seen as too subtle or reserved.  As @soapfan770I liked Sheila on LA Law but she wasn't needed here, especially as Charley as a character only made sense with a more reserved and less conventionally attractive actress.
    • That's certainly one way to put it!  What blather. Kind of tells you they knew it was going to fail. I guess they were just throwing anything at the schedule and hoping they would be pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the article.
    • I would guess it's down to Kate Oates. Bowden is very much her type of leading man. She repeated all the stories she did on Emmerdale with his Ben.  I also think EE has become conservative enough that only a white, straight-acting gay man is going to get story.
    • Desert Sun, 13 April 1985 ABC’s 'Dark Mansions’ Loretta Young quits movie LOS ANGELES (AP) - Loretta Young, citing “creative differences,” has withdrawn from her role as the family matriarch in “Dark Mansions,” an ABC movie and projected series, a spokesman for the actress said. The Academy Award-winning actress had been due to come out of retirement to begin work on the two-hour movie on April 22. The movie goes into production on Monday. “Loretta Young will not be rendering services because of creative differences over the story,” her agent, Norman Brokaw of the William Morris Agency said in a statement. “The parting between Miss Young and Aaron Spelling was amiable despite the story differences,” the statement said. Miss Young had been scheduled to play the role of Margaret Drake, the matriarch of a Seattle shipping family in “Dark Mansions,” a contemporary Gothic drama. There was no immediate word from either Aaron Spelling Productions or ABC who would replace Miss Young in the role. “It’s true that we had creative differences over the way her character was developing,” Spelling said in a statement released by a spokesman, David Horowitz. “She's a great star and a great friend and I hope she always remains both.” Miss Young won an Academy Award as best actress in 1948 for “The Farmer’s Daughter.” She was the star of 94 motion pictures and was the creator, producer and star of “The Loretta Young Show” during television’s so-called Golden Age Miss Young had been scheduled to work eight days out of the four week shooting schedule. The movie, a pilot for an ABC prime-time soap opera, also stars Michael York, who would make his series debut, Linda Purl, Paul Shenar, Melissa Sue Anderson, Raymond St. Jacques and Dan O’Herlihy. Miss Young s last film was “It Happens Every Thursday” in 1953. She then took the unprecedented step of retiring from films to produce and star in "The Loretta Young Show" on television. She won three Emmy awards as best dramatic actress in 1954, 1956 and 1958. She was also nominated five other times. The anthology show ran on NBC from 1953 to 1961. In the 1962-63 season she starred on NBC in a dramatic show called “The New Loretta Young Show.” As we know Joan Fontaine took on the role 
    • If Claybon is married to a woman I'm the Archduke Ferdinand.
    • I do think Ben should come back. I think Max Bowden is all wrong for Ben.
    • Thank you, been waiting so long for this, and I appreciate how much work it is typing this all out and creating the charts for us!
