Members carolineg Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 It is what it is. But it looks like she's squinting all the time. I mean, Vanessa has had some questionable work too and I don't know why these women don't go to Deidre Hall or Susan Lucci's Dr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 (edited) Tanisha Harper is one of the worst actors I've seen on daytime (not since that rappin' twink who played Oscar has there been someone so bad), and Jordan has always been a half-baked character. Write her out. Same with the now endless parade of Mollys for a good long while, same with T.J. (though I might use him in a medical story for a bit and then have him follow Molly). You can always create and hire new viable characters. Jury's out on Kristina. I would lock Hudson West in as Jake, on contract. It's time. I don't consider a lot of these people regular cast. Alley Mills doesn't need to be cut because she only appears off and on on a recurring basis - Heather can go in and out for story. Esme can exit when her story finishes and recur like Heather as a baddie on occasion. Kevin and Lucy, Ned, Scott, etc. are all great characters but again they all appear regularly as is. You don't need to have every vet on contract to keep them active in major story; GH has shown that while having way too many other recurring players as is. Would I put Kevin and/or Lucy back on contract? Maybe. But it wouldn't really change anything, and keeping some on recurring but playing them often saves money. No need to put Wally on contract for Ned to be active in story. Adam Huss, I haven't decided but frankly I'd probably kill Nikolas off permanently in a more respectful way with Tyler gone - there's been too many recasts and while Huss is fine, it is not the same.

Members Liberty City Posted January 3 Author Members Share Posted January 3 Lucci's work at the Daytime Emmys was APPALLING! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 Tanisha Harper looks younger than her own son so miscast. I would kill off Nik too. Just bring back Lucky instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 I don't see the point in debating Walt Willey or MEK either - these are recurring players who don't have much story activity. Does it hurt the show if Jack Montgomery from Pine Valley appears from time to time for a legal story? He's not demanding story. Does it unbalance the show if Martin does the same or has some C-plot? They're fine, let them do their thing. I would write Obrecht out in a blaze of villainous glory after a time, though. I will never be okay with her just hanging around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 Lol. I didn't think it was that bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted January 3 Author Members Share Posted January 3 I get the idea of killing off Nikolas, but I don't see it as a necessity. Now, had Tyler Christopher been in the role recently, then yes I'd feel that way, but he'd been out of the role since 2016. Oh, it was bad, IMHO. A lot of stars looked like they had gotten "refreshed" days-to-hours prior to the event, and it was very off-putting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 But there's been two sketchy recasts since. Coloma flamed out and Adam Huss is a temp who, while quite talented, just lacks something long-term IMO. Going for Nikolas #5 would be getting into OLTL's Kevin Buchanan or AW/RH recast territory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 Well it seems Ava and Nik may be teaming up to take down Esme. I want to see what they have planned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted January 3 Author Members Share Posted January 3 But, Huss continues to come back and we've only seen him in limited quantities. And, within those time limits, I've liked what I've seen and wouldn't mind giving him a chance to do more. And, if that does not work out, then yes write the role out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 Hmm, okay, I thought it was pretty bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 She's like 75. I just thought age eventually catches up a bit. CW is decades younger. She shouldn't look so puffy I say kill Nik off and invest in Lucky and Lulu. No one has made a mark the way TC did. Steven Martimes/Coltin Scott/Whoever was probably the best recast and I think he's a full time scammer these days I might be slightly blind.

Members Vee Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 (edited) I think Coloma might arguably have been the best recast, in his early days. Then he stopped giving a shít. I had a lot of time for CSSM etc. in his teenybopper heyday with Gia, but he never had the authority or imperiousness that even Coloma sometimes had. And since he is in fact a criminal I would never have him back and I think he's too radioactive even for GH.

Members Liberty City Posted January 3 Author Members Share Posted January 3 Whether Nik is gone or not, Lulu is someone I'd like to see return this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lye-C Posted January 3 Members Share Posted January 3 I haven’t watched in four years but I may for the Bobbie stuff. Is Genie front and center? I gave up when it became clear the show wasn’t writing for her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
