This! Watched today after a long time not watching and felt this way. Today's show was bland and boring. Who is this Oscar person? A new Cameron? Sonny is still a waste and so is Carly....old Carly is on too.....didn't see much of anything going on ....

GH goes through the motions. But there's no spark of life. All the remaining soaps have that deadening tonality.  Cluttered with a mass assortment of ill conceived unlikable characters. I try watching but seeing the look of entitlement in Sonny's face. Or Jason and Drew's blank expressions. Is a real turn off. Even watching once in a blue moon is a real chore for me. I used to love to hate watch it. Just to goof it. But even that stopped becoming fun ages ago.

They do have a modest fanbase on Twitter but I completely agree. They're just so blah. Anna and McBain sparked decently and made sense but Anna and Finn are just too incompatible. As a result, they've basically changed his entire character from idiosyncratic doctor to Scorpio-lite with accompanying Anna on missions and Duke-lite with the dancing. Outside of his sarcasm, everything that defined Finn to begin with has been watered down.

 

I don't understand the obsession of making sure Finola has a new leading man every year or so when there was never any problem with her chemistry with Ian Buchanan or Tristan Rogers. There's just no logic behind it. In the last six years, we had Michael Easton as McBain, Luke, Faison (masquerading as Duke, then this awful newly conconcted history I can't even stomach), Duke, whomever Grayson McCouch was playing, Andre... there was even a time there where they were testing her with Paul before they did a total rewrite and made him a serial killer. I just don't get it. There hasn't been enough spark between her and any of these guys so it's just a constant revolving door. Terrible. Not to mention the Peter s**t has all but destroyed Anna's character and made her unrecognizable.

Does anyone care about Nina, besides people who like her just because they liked MS on Y&R?

 

Seriously, does anyone care about her role in this Charlotte bullying storyline? She's so out of place and I can't imagine that anyone is rooting for her seeing as she's a horrific step mother. The only reason anyone would be on Nina's side is simply because they don't like Lulu.

Does anyone care if Nina and Valentin reunite? Not to mention their relationship is literally just the same crap over and over again. Nina decides to trust him and then he lies to her again, and she's shocked and devastated. Yawn.

Does anyone care if Nina finds her real daughter?

 

I'm guessing no to all. Why is this character shoved down our throats every day? Her relationship with Maxie is okay to watch, but that's about it. I'm tired of watching her get shoehorned into all kinds of scenes and story lines.

 

Speaking of Maxie... is anyone actually feeling her and Peter together? Their scenes are like watching paint dry for me. Doesn't help that I don't like Peter in general and the actor is terrible.

 

I still can't believe how much air time the Oscar story is getting.

 

The Ryan story continues to be the only one worth watching.

Unfortunately, it looks like Michael Easton as Finn is the one who finally stuck. She's gotten more with him any of those other guys. She has gotten more with him than she did with Duke for their second time around.

Grayson played the dude she mentored. The original actor came back to play Sloane because GM wasn't interested in returning to the show when FH came back from vacation that summer just to play Sloane being killed.

    • I loved SOAP OPERA NOW because they  did detailed analysis of the ratings.
    • I love MKA and feel like they never used her to her full potential with India. The character seemed to exist merely to fight with Alex and blackmail men into marrying/sleeping with her. As if! Then adopting an orphan right out of Little Orphan Annie...somebody BTS didn't like her, I think.
    • I mean...Sarah Michelle Gellar did go on to be a household name and food guru. I can see Amber doing the same with the same talent.  Amen.
    • It really is ridiculous how happy episodes from 40 years ago make me. God, MKA is so young!
    • Holy sh.it. THAT was a damn soap opera. I’m at a loss for words for how good that was.
    • A private elevator penthouse with a spiral staircase to the primary suite.  Sign me up! The only deficit was that various riff-raffs seemed to have easy access to the elevator.

    • Same here.  Anyone who voluntarily left Margo's penthouse set (except to go overseas or to Heaven) was immediately on my blacklist.  lol.

    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
