GH: Actress Confirms Exit Following Last Scenes

[cityfan01]

OK let's be honest, other than the fact that this was one half of an lgbt couple, this is not a huge loss for the show.  She could barely scrape together a couple tears when Kristina fell through that window and it was a damn good thing the writers sent her off with mommy to that restaurant because she would have been so out of place with the powerhouse performances in the hospital.  I am OK with this move by TPTB.

Good. Bye.

If only you can take Natalia with you.

[Contessa Donatella]

I'd heard that. Also I'd heard that with Kish they got some backlash. Do you think that is what happened here? And, now? In 2024?

[John]

Kish did by a small religious group but FV cut them cause he was scared

[Sapounopera]

Isn't he the same EP who brought all these people?

Thank you. 

[John]

The issue is that Frank has done this before and he didnt learn back then from the fans who were pissed

[Sapounopera]

Has done what? Write out a lesbian?

[Contessa Donatella]

Dump the LGBTQ+ couple at the first sign of ... distress?

[BetterForgotten]

My heart goes out to all 3 of you.

Anyway, this definitely seems abrupt and maybe FV is trying to use this as a scapegoat for the show’s ratings erosion this year to his bosses. Pathetic really, but I won’t sit here and pretend I ever cared for Blaze - if only her annoying mother could leave with her too!

FV dumped Blaze. We havent seen Aidan, Terry, Felix or Brad in Months. Lucas is off the canvas

Then back in 2010 while EP at OLTL, FV dumped their popular gay couple (Kyle & Oliver)

Also fired Scott Clifton (Schyler) & Daphne Duplaix (Rachel) who were roomies heading for an inter-racial romance. All were dumped in the same month.

Fans got pissed. FV never learns.

Certainly am being honest. But it is a fact that they were GH's LGBTQ+ couple!!! And, a very popular couple, at that. So, yes, from that pov it is indeed a sizable loss for the show. Representation today counts - as it should. There is something abominable in ditching the lesbian but keeping the raging homophobe. Or do you just not see that? You say you're okay with this, so, good for you. I'll be waiting & watching for the show to destroy something or someone you love. 

[John]

Well Said.

[Contessa Donatella]

Amusing although incredibly inaccurate

 

 

[Sapounopera]

The man is gay himself, he brought all these queer characters to the show and I am supposed to call him a homophobe? 
I didn't mind Blaze/Ally, despite the fact that her acting was horrible during the fall. But I can't call the poor man names because he let the actress go. Did SON posters really like her that much? I hadn't realized that. 
All I know is that she was written out very abruptly. 

[John]

Ever hear of internalized Homophobia? Also as stated above he has done this very thing before.
