Members Faulkner Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Loved Justus. He was so unapologetically prideful and political and smart and unwilling to bow or defer to Tracy or anybody. He had such a modern-day Sidney Poitier vibe. He absolutely should have gone to war with Ned/Tracy for his rightful place in the Quartermaine family. I will never forgive GH for destroying him. But again, the Quartermaines themselves were greatly diminished post-Labine. Can’t say it enough, but f*ck cancer. Losing RC and Madge Sinclair within months to that dreaded disease...

Members Taoboi Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 The bold. I know seeing him as a kid...he was so different from most black men (outside of Neil on Y&R) I saw on soaps. So I liked. And the fact that it drove Tracy so crazy there was a branch on the family tree that was...was...not the butler. Please register in order to view this content I am playing slow catchup on GH, but from reading synopsis I want to say that maybe she appeared near the start of the year. However, the actress herself tested positive for Co-Vid so I don't how things stand with the character now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dion Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) Yeah she popped up again just last week (Monday 31st) to ask Carly questions about what happened with Nelle (and yes, their cousin connection was acknowledged) and to give Michael an update on the search; in the following episode (Tuesday 1st) Valerie questioned Alexis about Neil's death and gave her condolences. Actually I read the hospital she went to would not test her for COVID, even though the symptoms were pretty much consistent with COVID and the doctors had ruled out everything else. Since everything else had come up negative though, the doctor told her that they couldn't confirm that she'd had it but she should act accordingly. This was back in March and she has returned to GH so hopefully that means she has made a full recovery (that is without long term symptoms).

Members Bright Eyes Posted September 10, 2020 Author Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) That's a special case. I would say he doesn't technically count because he's the very rare case, probably only, of a character losing part of their whiteness. It also raises the question of Paul Mendez, assumed father of Brandon and father to Nicole and Taylor Walker, being/not being a POC. Looking up the surname, it seems to have a Spanish origin which people here have discussed still being Caucasian in another thread. I thank everyone for their responses. I've added a tentative list to the first post of this thread. Not only have I added all the characters mentioned here, but have also added a few I've remembered on my own. I've also added Brandon Walker anyway just because he is such a rare case. Edited September 10, 2020 by Bright Eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Well good. I was completely sure since it had been a while since I read about it. Good to hear she is already back. Something to look forward to when I catch up. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted September 10, 2020 Author Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Do you have any idea how far that romance went? Did anything prominent happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Nothing happened. It wasn't even established if Valerie was attracted to women or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Even though it came seven years later after he was introduced, Devon on Y&R was found out to be Katherine’s grandson after the show gave him years of not much to do. Chad on Passions was always destined to be a lost Crane heir lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Even once Devon found out he was Katherine's grandson he floundered story wise and not much was done with their relationship. Only with Hillary did he show some spark...and we know how that went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted September 10, 2020 Author Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Thank you. That's exactly what I wanted to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Very true but at least he appeared more often after the reveal. It was in 2010 that Bryton only appeared in 20 episodes total for the entire year as a contract player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 That's so odd. Maybe that was the time Devon should have left town and been recast with a more interesting actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted September 11, 2020 Members Share Posted September 11, 2020 I think MAB & Co. was too busy trying to write for Malcolm and Sofia to even care to build up a story for Devon, especially after the whole mess of Devon sleeping with “Aunt” Tyra.

Members SFK Posted September 11, 2020 Members Share Posted September 11, 2020 And back in 1984, her mother (Alan and Alex's sister), Victoria (Kim Hamilton) and grandmother (Brandon's wife), Sharina (Janet League) were introduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted September 11, 2020 Members Share Posted September 11, 2020 I had long since stopped watching, but what about Vincent Clarksson/Valerie Davis on Passions? Son of Eve Russell and Julian Crane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
