Thanks to alexisfan07 for finding all my errors every month!

[Faulkner]

Ha at 1 & 2. Just shows how little episode rankings correspond to actual story prominence on a show. No one would dare say Curtis and Jordan are leads on GH.

[alexisfan07]

 

I agree with that wholeheartedly, but I do have to give them some props to make sure there is more visibility and exposure for the characters. I hope they can recast Jordan but I appreciate their attempt at investing in some substantial airtime for them. I said this in the GH November thread but this may be the first time two African American cast members have led the episode counts on GH in the entire show's history. Hell ,maybe on any soap.

[Ryan Chamberlain]

Jon having 68 episodes this year. Wow. Seems like that hasn't happened since the 1990s. 

[Faulkner]

Totally agree that the visibility is a positive step in a genre waaay behind the times, but if Curtis or Jordan disappeared from the show *today*, their absence would make little to no story impact, which is sad for two characters who boast the most screen time. Jordan’s role as police chief is easily swapped out, and Curtis is basically a talk-to for Nina (when Maxie’s not around) and sometimes Drew. 

[alexisfan07]

 

It probably hasn't! A brief rundown of his episode totals since he returned in 2013: 

 

2013: 20

2014: 15

2015: 2 (temp. recast also appeared in 1 episode as Kevin)

2016: 39

2017: 27

 

That's a total of 103 over the course of five years and now he'll be in 68+ in one year! Crazy stuff.

[DaytimeFan]

Great for Jon Lindstrom. 

 

Also just nice to see Jackie Zeman, Lynn Herring and Leslie Charleson all have at least 20 episodes. It isn’t a ton, but it’s certainly better than the JFP days. 

[alexisfan07]

 

Remember, Leslie was out for a good part of the year so the 7 episodes Patty McCormack had would've been hers also. And I think of you every time I compile Jackie's numbers. She had a stronger year last year because of her involvement in the Nelle story. I'm guessing Jon being a front-burner vet probably financially hurt their ability to use some of the other vets as much as they had in the last few years. Here is a breakdown of Jackie's numbers since she returned in 2013: 

 

2013: 16 (she was only brought back for the anniversary and this was before they decided she was going to stick around)

2014: 37

2015: 27

2016: 17

2017: 36

2018: 27 (as of 12/21/18)
