GH: Fan Fave Fired. Actress Blindsided

[carolineg]

That's a bit of a disgusting take.  Regardless of how I feel about KeMo/Sam, we don't know why she's missing work.  They prayer emoji and the wording makes me think CH is implying something.

Also ABC Disney is Mandating Budget Cuts and not just at GH

[Taoboi]

Well, I did say in the other thread that how you are written off a show shows how production feels about the person.

[David_Vickers]

I agree wholeheartedly.  If the rumored Kelly Monaco backstage antics, caused them to fire her, they should've hired Hartley fulltime.  Sam being on the show for 21 years and Alexis's daughter, makes her a legacy character that shouldn't be killed off.  Hopefullly GH will reverse this decision of killing off Sam, and maybe even firing Kelly Monaco!  Sam should be an important part of the Lulu return storyline. 

[AbcNbc247]

Yeah… there’s something going on here. I hope we get the full story someday. 

[Sapounopera]

Nobody will notice Sam's absence. She has been a character who reacts to other people's drama for some time, her story has more or less been told -more than once- and she seems bored in most of her scenes. 
The character should have been written out years ago. I'd rather have Laura's kids back and Alexis is all good with two daughters on the show.

One of the problems with today's soaps is that TPTB are too scared to write out people who were popular decades ago and have no longer something to offer.

Now if it was Liz or Maxie in Sam's place, I wouldn't be saying these things. So I understand who like her and will hate to see her go.

Sonny... I wish they would finally kill him off. He's BEYOND overstayed his welcome. 

[VelekaCarruthers]

Bye girl.  Now Maurice and Steve AND FRANK

[reallyhateskateonlost]

So many other newer characters need to go,

Natalia, Nina, Gio, Drew, Dex, Cody, Sasha, Jagger

If they are cutting costs...

[Sapounopera]

The sad is that we don't even dare to dream something like that. 

[John]

They do not cost anything

[Vee]

Contract players cost money. Recurring ones don't. I'd fire almost all of them. And Kelly too.

My Point was Cutting Gios 1000 an episode gurantee isnt gonna save as much money as say cutting Laura Wright's

[Liberty City]

Well, Harrington is recurring, so cutting him now wouldn't cost a thing.
