Recommended Posts

Why Not? Maybe by a miracle, Someone from the Production sees it and tries to realize one or two of our ideas but let's all be honest on what we think would be great for The Milestones of these 2 shows that are now less than 6 months shy

Me? Oh, On Y&R some Fosters, and Brooks, and Maybe some of the Greats that started on this show reappearing, and some of the classic Music Cues and Sets Appearing

ON GH? I Honestly don't think i Know Enough to state an Opinion

I don’t want anything from GH right now. I don’t even want old fan favorites back coz they get ruined anyway. (Like Jack Wagner as Frisco at the 50Th!)

Y&R on the other hand could make me happy if they would give Jill actually something big to do. I want Jill be involved in the anniversary

It's funny you should say that. 

 

I got a peek at one of the latest SOD. And one of the writers was talking about what we have been discussing about her here. The lack of her being in her story. The fact that she apparently vanished after the (just viewed on my end) scene of her in the stairwell. The fact she did not get a 25th anniversary episode.

 

I took two things from it. 

 

1) I think she was the blind item we were discussing in the Spoiler thread about someone not waiting to return to play story. Well if the writers are adamant that this secret is tied to said legacy character well *cough*recast*cough* So it does sound like they are stalling her storyline to figure out what to do with that angle. 

 

2) He seem adamant she wanted to do something with Liz for her 25th anniversary so it's going to be continuous throughout the year. See Number 1. If it is stalled how? And if he wanted to continue celebrating Liz's existence...they could be doing more. Lucky mentions. Tieing in her kids. Maybe flashbacks of love interests? Things to make you go hmmm.

Hehe. It does look at devil horns. 

 

That's what it sounds to me. If it IS the case of the legacy character and they are not at all interested...it would be simple to recast, use the established history since some of the characters they interacted with are still around, and THEN build it around Elizabeth and the reveal. Kinda like how they slowly built Victor back in originally before he vanished...he had six months of story versus Scott, Anna, Valentina, and then focused it all on Laura fighting over the Cassandines.

Becky said in an interview the writers have NO idea where they're going with this story. She asked for direction for it and they basically said they were just winging it.

 

I'm paraphrasing of course

Sorry you don't recast Liz, you know what a backlash that would cause, that'd be like recasting Laura or Scotty

It seems like Victor's storyline was rewritten too. What happened to Drew's activation and the thing from his past that Victor needs? And Hayden's disappearance? Holly's kidnapping?

That's what I want to see for the 60th anniversary: No more dropped storylines

Well, they dealt with some of Drew's activation...rushed though it was. I honestly feel the Hayden storyline won't be brought up until it's time to write Victor out. And I was just thinking about Holly and that story thread yesterday funnily enough. 

 

 

I was not meaning recast Liz silly.

  I don't know if you were in the spoiler thread when those blind items drop. And I don't know who read them or not so I am purposely being vague on the contents. I would be LIVID over a Liz recast. 

 

I think I have that interview sitting around somewhere. You now make me want to see if I do to read it. But what I read from the writer was written in the last week or so.

Emma Samms got a very bad case of "long Covid" and couldn't film.
(putting detail behind the spoiler tag so as not to derail this "future anniversary" thread.)

I guess we can hope that she's recovered enough to return to GH by the time the GH 60th anniv is filmed.

    • 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.
    • What annoys me a little bit about the "day players" is they sound a bit too "Brooklyn-ish" sometimes.  Obviously, the show was taped in New York City, and the actors are all New York actors, but Monticello is supposed to be located in Illinois or Ohio.  Occasionally, they grab actors and actresses for small roles who have VERY distinct New York accents, which contrasts sharply with the main cast, none of whom have noticeable accents (except for our dashing European gigolo, Eliot Dorn, of course).  The heavy Brooklyn accent works fine if the character is a bookie, or the owner of a pawn shop, or a guy who's selling stolen guns on the street corner.  But when it's a steadily recurring character -- such as the first Mrs. Goodman, who worked for Miles and Nicole -- it's pretty jarring to me sometimes.  And you'll see it often -- such as an "under-five" character who witnesses a car accident, or a character who witnesses a shooting, or the occasional desk clerk, or waiter.
