Members Contessa Donatella Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 So, what you're saying in a nutshell is that Megan McTavish happened to GL, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch64 Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 Nope...JFP happened first..she brought Lucy on and put her in the spotlight and force her into AM and poor saps at home, apparently desperate for a super couple to root for (never got that) were cheering on LAM (E). Buzz was eating up the show on Jill's watch, Kat left during Jill, she put Gilly with Sid Dickerson instead of AM and then McTavish came on board and just, continued the same...(though she upped Jill by making poor Gilly fall in love with her own bio-dad!!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) You miss my point. I'm sure I didn't get it across well enough. I was attempting to tell you what kind of man he was *before* he became an FOJ, since I know what people thought of him after. Oh, okay. I had it in my head that there was a gap between one #SoapKIller, JFP, and another #SoapKiller McT. My error, entirely. What you had was like a tumbler of poison with a chaser of e coli.

Members Planet Soap Posted May 4, 2022 Author Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 GH: Sam took Courtney's place in the show eating quad. Why did they decide to kill Courtney off? Did they loose interest in her once they had the charachter and Jason split? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Titus Andronicus Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 Eileen Davidson ate Days between her various characters for a year or two. Most of it was good, but even that began to be too much by the time Thomas was introduced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Darn Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 I think it was due to an EP change? I recall Bob Guza was basically forced to write for her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 Oh, now, surely not, how could a few - count them FIVE - take up precious airspace. Kristen, Susan, Sister Mary Moira, Penelope & Tomas, I loved that story, but it was like a whole new family had been introduced & were gobbling up all available bandwidth! I do love that ED did it to herself though. They were going to hire someone to play Susan & she just tossed off, "Why don't you let me do that?" It remains my only favorite JER storyline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 I thought it was Frons that loved Courtney, but then moved on to KeMo and that gave Guza the room to get rid of Courtney. I do remember he (supposedly) hated her. Courtney still had that story with Jax and Nik after. Wasn't JFP the EP the entire time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 I think @Vee said recently that Pratt was fond of Courtney/ALW as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 AW had San Cristobal and GL had San Cristobel, if I just assigned them the right one but it was never as bad at AW as GL where it was officially a second location and for way too long. If not for Olivia & Jonathan it wouldn't have been worth it if you ask me. But, for DOOL as much as I love Crystal Chappell, her first tenure at DOOL was as Dr. Carly Manning who was gobbling up all real estate. Besides her being a doctor along with Tom & Marcus, they did a - granted lovely, well done - retcon to make her Jennifer Rose's roomie when they were in Switzerland Boarding School. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 IMO, it just never made sense for Kung Fu Barbie to be Sonny's long-lost half-sister. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 If I remember correctly JFP was at GH for an amazing 12 years! I think so. And, by far the longest she was made welcome. Her pattern is to be popular with the Honchos & half the actors for a few years & then they can't get rid of her fast enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted May 5, 2022 Members Share Posted May 5, 2022 (edited) Of course not! And then they gave Sonny a brother like a year later. I have to say I could deal with Skipper being Sonny's sister if I didn't have to deal with Jason/Courtney as well. She was good with AJ. That era of the 4 of them Carly/Sonny/Jason/Courtney was absolutely dreadful and the pinnacle (IMO) of all the characters airtime.
