I think it is important for fans to say what they want, what is essential, as well as what they don't want, which is easy. The lesson learned from both Maureen Bauer and Frankie Frame when people didn't know & fully understand they were important even when they didn't happen to be frontburner is a lesson that cannot be underestimated. So, here are 7 charges I make to the new writers with my fingers crossed.

#1-Marcus Taggert: Reâl Andrews said he would be there with bells on if GH called. Call him!

#2-Cut from the cast: Violet, Gregory, Finn, Maxie, Spinelli, Maxie's children except James, Marshall, Stella & Drew.

#3-Maintain all of the Qs except Drew. Maintain Lois, guest of the Qs. Maintain the Davis women & TJ & Blaze. Maintain Carly, Ava, Trina, Dante, Sam, Sam's kids, Liz & Liz's kids. Maintain Laura, Kevin & Anna.

#4-Make sure stories have stakes & pay-off.

#5-Try to write well-paced stories with balance.

#6-See a little less of Sonny, Nina, Carly & Jason.

#7-Remember to tell stories about the hospital.

And, if I gave myself a #8 it would be to rebuild the Cassadines & Laura's children.

It's a pain that those of us who watch on Hulu, do not get this preview of the next day's show.

OH! Those threads. That pop up from time to time. Sure. I took what he said a different way, obviously the wrong way. And, I'm sure that at times we do talk about those things both there & here, just 'cause we get to talking & it happens. Thanks!

God, Carly’s kids are insufferable. 

One’s a pathetic excuse for a man, and the other one’s a whore, and an obsessive psychopath that puts Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction to shame.

It’s definitely a rare occasion when I’m taking Sonny’s side. 

And as for the ending with Anna and Jordan, that was an interesting turn in their storyline. I didn’t see it coming.

Michael and Joss are the worst though.  I don't know why we are supposed to think Michael is some bada*s business shark and guy when almost every silly plan he has blows up in his face.

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he fell to his death. So there was a supernatural element.
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you

    • Yep. Access to the Vault works fine but upon downloading attempts an error message pops up.   Maybe it is just a temporary glitch.

    • I'm pretty sure this ep is  from Dec 73 From the Daytime Serial Newsletter Ian and Valerie Northcote are deeply concerned over Laurie's  life being increasingly dominated by hallucinations and fantasies about Georgina, the former owner of the house the Reddins recently bought and are now living in. Doreen Post (Linda Purl) was involved in that story .Perhaps she was going to be revealed as Georgina's daughter? Wonder how that story evolved and whether it was wrapped up before cancellation? and thanks to @skylark
