ALL: General Retro Soap Discussion

[Vee]

She def hired some faves (Steve Burton, Jason Thompson). She brought in another useless blonde named Courtney for her daughter (just like GH and AW). I think Jensen Buchanan got a job there at that time. I can't be fucked to go through her whole dismal tenure to recall the other FOJ hallmarks.

JFP has 11 Emmys. I’d love to know what you’ve done with your lives.

Ah! I do recall this now. I do think Steve Burton and Jason Thompson were good choices. Burton was excellent with Sharon Case and he did much better work on Y&R than he has on GH in recent years.

To me Steve is so much better on GH than he was BITD. A lot's happened. DAYS was good for him. Y&R may have been also.

[Chris B]

He was good on Days as well. I feel like in recent GH stints (especially the one before his COVID firing) you can tell he was phoning it in but especially on Y&R, that wasn't an option. He really stepped it up to the point I was devastated after his exit storyline which was a career highlight for him.

I was one of the fans watching Steve daily on two different soaps - DAYS & GH.
