I don’t remember Emme Rylan being as bad on GL and Y&R as she is as Lulu. Am I having selective amnesia? She looks like a Spencer but she’s just so awkward to watch. 

 

Agree with everything @titan1978 says. 

She wasn't great on either show, IMO. Always blah but I think it was more passable because of who she was surrounded by. I never really liked her as Abby or Lizzie, personally. But I think she fit those roles a little better. She perks up around Amanda Setton and sometimes I think she's almost there but ... however we also have worse actors than her too so ... lol

I have never warmed to her.  JMB was just a better actress, had spunk but didn’t annoy me, and had more chemistry with all her costars and especially Dom.  She really sold a connection with Genie when Laura woke up from her coma for the wedding anniversary, and I have never felt that kind of connection from Emme and Genie (and they have had way more time together).

 

It has not helped that she has been saddled with one horrible story after another though.

I wasn't a big fan of the writing for JMB Lulu, or her portrayal at times, but in rewatching some stuff lord I'd take her back in a heartbeat. IN A HEARTBEAT. She had spunk and fire in her (I just had a different taste in my mouth for the show during JFP/Guza's regime and Lulu was tainted for me by the toxic Luke, but I can rewatch now with a different attitude towards it). Emme tries but just doesn't get there. 

 

Lulu and Maxie, like Sasha and Willow are literally the same person.  

 

 

I'm still confused on how an actress like Rylan ever got cast as Lulu, someone like Jen Landon after JMB would have been a much better fit

I don't get it either

Easy, Sonny. Yes, Nikolas hurt Spencer really badly but it’s not like he shot him or slept with his girlfriend or almost got him killed. Seriously, who behind the scenes thinks that Sonny criticizing and lecturing people about the bad things they’ve done is a good idea? 

 

And I’m sorry, but Charlotte is a spoiled little brat who needs to go off to boarding school and never come back.

Why do we have to see flashbacks of Spencer? Ugh. Soaps execs really do shoot themselves in the foot. Frank has a hard on for Spencer. The audience doesn’t. 

As controversial as she was, I would have taken Bree Williamson over Emme.

 

I have never understood how she got hired for this part.  Except Frank has had a plethora of bland attractive on the show since he arrived.  Almost all the young men cast have been bland but pretty.  Same with a lot of the women.

I don’t hate her either!  She is just bringing nothing to an underwritten part, so Lulu has evaporated.  Which is a shame, because I used to love her and saw

potential for the future with Lulu.  Well the future is here and she is an afterthought. 

Michael Easton needs a decent haircut. These variations on mid-‘90s k.d. lang aren’t working for him.

Are editing in all the flashbacks to extend scenes and therefore extend new episodes beyond May 2020???

I have to agree with you. I think she's terrible on GH. She's awkward and I'm to the point where I even find her voice annoying. Can actors regress?

^^^THIS^^^   Honestly, I wanted to throw my remote at the screen when Sonny stared down Nikolas and acted like Father of the Year. I wanted to throw up. The writers are doing MB no favors with that kind of writing.

I can't take these flashbacks. The Hayden/Finn stuff lasted FOREVER.

RE: Sonny

He married a sociopathic woman who Michael had to KILL, then Michael got sent to prison and was raped. He blew Kristina up He bent Ava over on a tomb at Michael's real dad's funeral, then yelled at Morgan (still can't figure that one out) when Morgan got upset. SHOT DANTE

Shot Carly while she was birthing Morgan

I feel they are trying to split  one episode of scenes into two/three so they added in the FB's to extend the # of new episodes past May 2020

Did I read you guys correctly, Valentin is no longer a Cassadine? What happened?
