You think GH has many bad actors? Who? 

I feel like the show has an overly large ensemble cast with very strong players, average journeyman actors & some people who are not good, maybe a bell curve. 

Today it seemed odd to me to have both a new Georgie & a new Aiden. There were too many kids, period. Doing some Tracy discovery was interesting to me & I liked it. I thought the way they went about giving Rena more to do was very cleverly done.

I definitely don't want him to go via a crippling scandal that would destroy the show, as that continues to cast a shadow over DAYS. And I know there are worse producers to have - like the one before him. I genuinely don't believe the core of GH can improve with him because he is soulless (as a producer, not as a human being), but I do appreciate wanting more and being pleased with more as GH is probably the most viable of the four current soaps.

Of everyone on this show, Sasha should have gotten the Marland Barbara Ryan treatment. Too long a victim, pissed at how things shook out at Deception, ends up at Drew/Michael’s company and is the first person to find out about the Nina/Drew anger sex. Lures Michael into her bed again by playing up her sadness and his savior complex, and sets the stage for Willow/Drew affair. She can also be sleeping with Cody. What we needed was a character to mix things up in several stories. We need a schemer desperately!

New Aiden looks like old Aiden. I had to do a double take. I knew he looked exactly like him but something was off. It's his acting. It's worse than previous Aiden. 

Today's show....yikes!

I thought she had at least a spark of bitch when she first came on. She would just need to tap into that. 

Oh they are all boring. But at least give them something soapy to do to pass the time if we have to be stuck with the likes of Michael forever.

    • It really made Oscar the Doorman seem like an imbecile.   I think the show's unusual format & subject manner is what makes EON often seem less "dated" and "old-fashioned" than other shows from that time period.  It never attempted to be especially "trendy" or "modern" -- and its film noir style is pretty timeless.  
    • Dallas, Dynasty, Knots and Falcon Crest all had good runs but by 85 they had seen better days. I think they were a victim of the format. After several seasons seeing the same characters front and center viewers were bored. What was once fascinating grew predictable. JR, Alexis etc had to be front and center and after a while their schemes and shtick grew repetitive. JR remarrying Sue Ellen, Alexis constantly trying to get he better of Blake etc Unlike daytime, there wasn't the flexibility to bring in other stories and characters and maybe let the likes JR go backburner. That same mentality also invaded daytime with characters like  Sonny and Victor still peddling the same stuff after decades. I guess the same could be said for MSW eg every week Jessica encounters a crime and solves it,but I think viewers come to that format with a different mindset.
    • Daphnee and Trisha did a live stream on Instagram and confirmed they find out if the show gets picked up in May. This pretty much confirms they're on the primetime schedule like the Bell soaps. Fingers crossed we get a multi-year renewal announcement soon!  https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJSsYb7PDv8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==        
    • I don't think Lois the character was there.  The Lois we knew from the 90s has pretty much died with this  Gio story crap.
    • Have to agree re MM. The goody two shoes character and writing doesn't help but maybe a more dynamic actor would help Brandon lift his game also. I found the song sequence a little OTT. First of all it should have been shorter and maybe the song fades out and just some music to accompany the montage. I think it would have worked better if Anita had have been alone after everyone left and started tinkling leading into the song, with Vernon coming in observing and then joining her for  a close moment. Everyone standing around felt a little too much. And that closing effect with the two blackscreens meeting was unnecessary. Just a fade out would have been enough.
    • HUGE THANK YOU FOR 1998-1999 EPISODES!!!

    • And sadly I think that’s the trivia Both Jeanne Cooper and Eric Braeden went with for years and years. Lol
    • But people were hating so bad on amc and the final year and the ratings sucked. Business wise they made the right call. Oltl who even gained some ratings back and weren’t they higher as GH at one point is a decision and never understood. 
    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
