Pretty upset about this re-cast, I know Robin can't do it because she recently had a foot surgery but I hope she comes back soon to take this part back, I have not been watching as I don't want to see Heather played by anyone else, some say she retired but she did not, no statement by her saying that was ever put out and nothing was ever said when she had her fan club, I was told by fan club pres. it was just a rumor if it had been true it would have been posted on Robin's facebook page,

so does anyone else think heather should be left alone and only played by Robin? I think they should have waited till she could do it before bringing the character back on the show!

I tend to cut BA/Spinelli slack since he's written like a cartoon and not a real life human lol.  His skills and career open up lots of oppurtunity, but I don't know if he will ever rise above being Jason's sidekick.  But outside of Nathan, it's been Maxie's only good romance even if he was a much better fit with Georgie.

Portia should be with Nikolas and Curtis should be with Laura or Carly. They don’t have any chemistry together, but do with other people. I’m not sure why they’re still stuck together and I hate the Trina mess they’ve been teasing. 

 

They put Holly’s return on ice for a long time due to Emma Samms health issues. I’m sure they would’ve done the same for Robin. Maybe she just wasn’t interested in returning. Who knows? But I don’t mind. I think Alley Mills is doing a great job and she slid into the role pretty seamlessly for me.

LIZ, YOUUUUUUUUUU....BETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTERRRRRRRRRRRRRR...READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was worth the wait for me. She read her parents all the way down. And the moment where she was going to leave, stops, and goes back to confront them. RH's acting, her naunces, and her body language in the door was EVERYTHING. From what I know and seen of Jeff Webber, I think his recast has it down pat as well. I know at any moment, the story might get snatched away from Liz so I'm looking for it being focused...for now...ONLY...ON...HER.

 

LAURA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY. Now this Victory storyline can get ready to go, go, go. And dare I say it, Kevin was looking kinda FOINE in that priest suit. Don't hate me.

I don't at all like Jake/Carly. That said...I do like they are taking their time revealing it to the people who might (probably will) react to it. Sonny. Sam. Probably Nina. Should be fun.

 

Holly's up to her old tricks? Okay...intrigued.

 

I feel AM is doing a good job so far. Or at least felt like Heather in terms of the dialogue she had last she was on.

LMAO! I was being nice not saying it, but it is obvious when you see the Black actors in scenes with others and no matter how much heat they have the writers just won't touch it. Curtis and Laura, Curtis and Carly, Portia and Nikolas, Portia and Sonny, Jordan and Sonny, TJ and Willow. Not only that, but despite their popularity, I don't think Trina and Spencer have even had their first kiss. They're the money couple but it's clear the show doesn't want to commit to it.

I wonder why GH has this hang up. The other soaps seem to be fine with interracial relationships now and ABC showcases it in primetime.

    • Here's the place to share some memorable criticism. You don't have to agree with it, of course (that's often where the fun starts). Like I mentioned to @DRW50, Sally Field was a favorite punching bag in the late '80s and early '90s.   Punchline (the 1988 movie where she and Tom Hanks are stand ups): "It's impossible to tell the difference between Miss Field's routines that are supposed to be awful, and the awful ones that are supposed to be funny." -- Vincent Canby, New York Times. "It's not merely that Field is miscast; she's miscast in a role that leaves no other resource available to her except her lovability. And (David) Seltzer's script forces her to peddle it shamelessly." -- Hal Hinson, Washington Post. "As a woman who can't tell a joke, Sally Field is certainly convincing. ... Field has become an unendurable performer ... She seems to be begging the audience not to punch her. Which, of course, is the worst kind of bullying from an actor. ... She's certainly nothing like the great housewife-comedian Roseanne Barr, who is a tough, uninhibited performer. Sally Field's pandering kind of 'heart' couldn't be further from the spirit of comedy." -- David Denby, New York
    • I tend to have two minds about Tawny (Kathy Najimy) fainting during Soapdish's big reveal. You're the costume designer, if anything, you should have known the whole time. I guess it's an application of what TV Tropes calls the "Rule of Funny." Every time I watch Delirious, I always want the genuine romance in John and Mariel's reunion at the deli counter to last longer. Film critics had their knives out for Sally in this period. I'll start a separate thread on the movies page.
    • I don't think so, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was Dumas this whole time.
    • Tamara Tunie was serving up grand dame diva fierceness.
    • Nick told Victoria that he and Sharon had married in England.  Victoria was shocked.  Then she realized he was kidding.  He confirmed it was a joke and they're platonic. I don't even know what to say about that.
    • It's funny you say that because part of the entertainment of the trials on the show are all the day players who come on as witnesses and jurors.  I'm certain it was like the Law and Order of its time. It employed so many New York actors, that if you look close enough, there's usually someone vaguely recognizable in the courtroom.
    • I will defend Dante.  People already suspect he may be a bit unstable from time to time (from his time as a prisoner).  And, he's taking care of other people's kids from time to time.  So, he has reason to be cautious with those in his care.
    • Josh continues to try and milk Abbott/Newman rivalry. First it was Billy/Victoria, then Kyle/Summer, then Noah/Allie (that worked out well) and now Kyle/Claire. Do we have any inkling when Billy Flynn will arrive and who he will play? I'm sure Cole's illness will mostly play offscreen. What's in store for Nick and Sharon? Is it time to put them back together? I can't see any other romantic options. Nick has no children on the canvas to play off, as Christian is never seen. Sharon has only Mariah onscreen.
    • I would appreciate (if they're not coming), for future scripts to refer to them by their iconic hairdos.  For example, if Hope needs to call Chelsea because Bo has Sepsis, I'd like Shawn-D to say, "My Mom called Chelsea (the one with the sassy short black hair) for an update." Also, new rule, if Melanie does return, she needs to dye her hair back to red.  I googled who she was five times during Victor's funeral.

    • Broderick, thank you for all of the info [I edited for space]. I am so grateful for everyone filling in the blanks for me. I suspected the Nora/Eliot scene was very important and it was setting something up but I didn't know what. Can't wait to see it play out. The two actors had such a great back and forth. I should have made the Paige/Patty Hearst connection. I thought Paige was in love with Brian from the first episode I watched but it seemed as if they were brother and sister. Steve kept being affectionate with her so I assumed he was the love interest. Then she was affectionate with someone else and well..she's a very busy woman. I can't wait to see Frances Fisher show up. (I'm trying to be vague because I don't know what would be a spoiler in this storyline) Now it makes sense why Draper would be upset. I didn't get the whole background of why he didn't go to NY. I'm a sucker for good acting, so I might still side with April and Margo, if the writers don't give Draper more to do besides yelling.  He had more chemistry with Logan, but I know that's not happening.  Something else I noticed: the show really takes care with even the smallest parts. The acting is superb. Too often, I noticed on older soaps they don't take care with the recurring or day players (Ryan's Hope was so bad with this that I couldn't make it through some episodes). It's only been six episodes, but so far, the casting department was spot on.
