GH: O’Connor/Van Etten OUT! Mulcahey/Korte IN!


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Just been catching up with ALL the replies on this thread. I for one echo everyone else celebrating this news - Patrick Mulcahey is one of the most talented soap writers ever. It’s no coincidence that some of the most beautifully written scenes I’ve watched on GH have been from Mulcahey’s pen - whenever I dream up scenes in my own head, I always draw on him for inspiration.

I’m so looking forward to this - did they say when their scripts/outlines will start to kick in??

I dont need Patrick Mulcahey and Elizabeth Korte to axe a bunch of characters. What I would love are longer fleshed out scenes, fleshed out characters and more focus on romance & family.

 

As for Darin maybe he may be a good Lucky. I could see him as a better Dillion

 

My choices for Lucky would be David Tom or Devon Sawa

Let's just have every formerly employed mid-tier soap actor play Lucky on alternating days since quality doesn't matter.

Daniel Cosgrove IN as Lucky Spencer Mondays on ABC!

Justin Bruening saddles up every Tuesday as Lucas Lorenzo Spencer this fall!

Is it Wednesday? Let's wear pink! Jonathan Bennett's triumphant return to daytime on General Hospital!

Jordi Vilasuso, fresh off an Emmy nominated (probably, idk) stint on Y&R, steals the show as Luke and Laura's offspring every Thursday!

And finally, Colin Egglesfield turns in a tour de force performance as Detective Lucky Spencer every Friday on ABC's lone daytime drama!

I agree.  Of course, I have a list of characters who I would love to see gone - and yes, that list is a very long list, too, lol.  But I'll be satisfied if Mulcahey and Korte can give each character better definition.

I get what you're saying, @John, but if they wanted, for example, to stage an elaborate fire at the hospital that kills off a bunch of characters?  As long as it affects the rest of the canvas in significant ways and isn't just something that's forgotten ten minutes after it happens, I'll be okay with the sudden and swift mass exodus.

Wardrobe is on hold. No purchases of clothes for anyone. When they do that it is for one reason & one reason only. They anticipate changes but they literally have no idea what the changes will be. So you might as well get used to the idea that someone/s will be gone. I strongly suggest people post about who they like, who is essential, etc. It is more important to protect someone important to you than to be the 1000th person to say Micheal Easton has to go. 

And, with that in mind, I love Tracy! I love all the Qs! I love the Davis women. I love Sprina.

    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with. 
    • How did this come to be?
