As someone who was involved in a cult for a number of years, I can assure you that not all cult leaders are attractive and innocent looking. The leader of the cult I was involved with was quite homely and scarred, something he used to his advantage as he likened his adversities to the story of Job from the Old Testament. Many of the other leaders he recruited were average Joes like himself. And the impact that he and the other leaders had was enormous.

 

this is a soap, sis. If the entire cast of GH were "homely" looking, no one would watch it regardless of how more "true to life" it would make the show. This show is trying to sell Shiloh as a sort of days-of-yore-stripper-Karen-Sonny. But they cast a guy that looks like a sleeze ball in the role. We as fans are supposed to be "falling" into the cult with Kristina or at least believe what's happening to her. 

 

that's not happening.

Sis? Odd term to use. Just giving my two cents that in the real world all cult leaders are not handsome. And that's your opinion, which you're entitled to, that the actor looks like a sleaze ball. Personally, I don't think so. I think he's quite sexy and one of the better actors to be hired on GH in years.

He's far from sexy in my ideas of looks.  I guess that's why there is someone for everyone.
