AMC: Hospital Jobs for Everyone!


Recommended Posts

Ok...I think someone at AMC is just a tad bit off. I understand that PVH has always been a cornerstone of the show and many of the main characters worked there...but no...we don't need to include every person in the hospital.

We have David, who's morals are questionable...but he's a darn good heart surgeon and he's actually practiced medicine for many years. We also have Julia, who was a nurse prior to fleeing town with that guy and finally, Dr. Joe and I'm about ready to kick him out of the hospital. David, Julia and Joe...they are acceptable--Jon Boy, Josh and Jamie are NOT!

Josh...Ok, he went to medical school, but so what! The guy hasn't been a practicing doctor in how many years? Also, I'm not sure about the procedure but shouldn't he have to do something to work in the hospital (besides survive an abortion and have Martin DNA)? In addition, have we forgotten that he DRUGGED Erica and framed Amanda? I question how good of a person he is, I would rather die than let him touch me in the hospital or in a dirty beach shack. ;)

Jamie...the kidnapper, well this one didn't graduate college (which technically you don't have to do to attend med school) but up until Phoebe's will, his quest to become a doctor was quite hidden. I may be able to bend to Jamie being a candy striper, but a doctor or intern...heck no.

Finally, my favorite...Jon Boy...just how and why? Are GH and AMC playing copy cat with each other with their storylines? Jon Boy working in a hospital scares me and it just doesn't make sense. He is not only a murdering psycho stalker, but he's mentally unstable for heavens sakes! How is it that he can get a job attending to sick, defenseless patients who probably don't know that he killed his brother, beat Edmund in the head, beat up two girlfriends and blew up a cave? This is just unbelievable. (The new abcmedianet pics show Jon Boy in his uniform)

Since the hospital doesn't really care about who they hire, they can give Janet a job...maybe she can do arts and crafts with the children.

Ridiculous.

    • It's AWFULLY hard to tell.  But out of the (approximately) 16 weeks so far in 2025, Bryton has only had about 12 episodes.  That's significantly less than 1 per week.  Once the actor drops down to less than 1 per week for an extended period of time (such as a 39-week cycle), I start thinking there's no contract in place for him or her.  Surely these folks aren't tying themselves down to a show for a guarantee of 1 or 2 episodes a month.  
    • These contract guarantees of 1 ep per month are ridiculous. How can you even have a story if your character apprars 4-5 times in a month? It's sad.
    • It's hard to tell with some actors appearing on average 4 times in a month whether they're recurring or just on a low guarantee contract. Someone recurring  like Beth Maitland can be used a lot for several months then disappear. So the monthly tallies aren't enough to go by.
    • Of the so-called "contract" cast members, I'd venture to say these are recurring: Bryton James, Camryn Grimes, and (possibly) Michael Graziadei.  I've suspected since 2018 that Kate Linder and Christian LeBlanc are recurring.  And I believe we all know Miss Ordway is, because she said so. lol.  
    • Dante blaming Gio instead of his dweeb son and the other dweeb was just ridiculous. Gio's paternity story is going in circles with no reveal. I've already started fast forwarding Drew and his stupid ho Willow's story. Kristina's story is beyond dumb with no great payoff.
    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.     
    • The AMC hate came from Jamey Giddens/DC and their industry friends, IMO. For whatever reason I always felt they targeted the show, and it was wrong. AMC ratings were decent and even went up under Pratt (Yet, he was fired). The ratings were also good under Broderick and lowered out after her interim.  There was no reason to be upset with the show other than it being slow. They literally played it safe and did the best they could in 2010 and 2011. 
    • I have very detailed synopses of all 1976 storylines for the soaps from the Daytime Serial Newsletter. Please let me know if you are interested in a particular show and I will post it in the appropriate thread. As I stated they are very detailed, so I don't want to clutter up threads if posters are not interested.

    • Surely we (and Billy Flynn) are not going to be saddled with a character named Aristotle Dumas? This isn't 1970's Edge of Night.
