GH: Surprise Announcement!?

[DRW50]

This gave me a good laugh.

Neither she nor Laura look too thrilled here. And Burton looks like he just got out of boiling water. 

I'm aware I am not the audience for this, and many people are who aren't on here, but it's just such a huge waste of money and time. This isn't 2006. Even in 2006 it was beyond stale.

Yup. Steve would never play that.  I just can't imagine the original plan was for Jason to never, ever get his memories back and he would live out his entire GH career playing a benevolent hit man.

I agree.  Frank Valentini believes this will bring up the ratings, but he has no clue at all.

Seriously, couldn't Jane Elliot work on another soap?  Does she have to keep working on GH in order to keep her SAG-AFTRA health insurance?  Hell, I'll even suffer through B&B with her in the cast if that's her only consideration.

[carolineg]

Have Burton's returns ever brought up the ratings?  In any significant way?

[Khan]

I think Bob Guza said as much once upon a time, but I never believed him, lol.  I mean, even if that was/is the plan, it's only because - say it with me now - STEVE. BURTON. CAN'T. ACT.

I actually think Steve Burton's acting was pretty good in the 90's.  He gave up years ago, but I will unpopularly stand behind most of his choices until he met Carly.

Honestly, I'd be more grateful if Amber Tamblyn announced her return, but she'd probably be paid less than SB.

SAME !!!!  I loved Amber's Emily so much.

Listen, I'd be thrilled if Danielle von Zerneck were to come back, lol!  As long as it wasn't Steve [!@#$%^&*] Burton!

I’m not usually into bashing looks, but he does look like he was starved then boiled. It’s harsh.

[Khan]

C'mon, it's his own damn fault that he looks the way he does.  I guess Steve Burton doesn't believe in vaccines OR in sunscreen.

A headline that reads "JANE ELLIOT AND NANCY LEE GRAHN SAY 'ADIOS' TO GH!" would be great right about now.  I know it won't happen, but it still would be great.

I wonder if Danielle wanted to leave or was written off because john Stamos quit?

Just the good lord and Monavie.

The same lord who apparently said, "Tattoo sleeve?  Yeah, why not?".
