GH: March 2025 Discussion Thread

[DRW50]

He was the runner up on the Golden Bachelorette. The Golden Bachelor was a hit (although that was also during the strike), so I guess it shows some support ABC still has for GH to have the current one appear, but I agree it's a huge waste of talent. Why this regime doesn't want to use Cynthia Watros I don't know. 

(I do think they use Maura, somewhat - it's just nothing with that character ever really makes a lot of sense)

Interestingly he had actually jokingly asked a Bachelor producer about being on GH, because he used to watch in college. And then a few weeks later Valentini and Dominic Nuzzi got in touch.

At least he does seem to have some respect for the show, I guess.

Thanks!  I assumed it was someone vaguely "famous".  I don't watch the Bachelor at all.  I wonder if anyone would actually tune in just to see someone that lost a reality show though lol.

I have long said Nina was useless, but I did like her during PM's brief tenure and the Drew/Nina affair.  I would honestly just have Nina go crazy and leave at this point.  Get CW some emmy worthy material and just drop the character.

[DRW50]

There's that whole Bachelor ecosystem, they go on all the reality shows (even ones not run by ABC/Disney), but I don't know either.

Mulcahey did work hard to make Nina a more vital player. It's a shame. I agree they may as well write her out at this point if this is the best they can do.

But not before she guns down Drew!!

[Contessa Donatella]

He's a Golden Bachelor person & boy did he just stink up a fairly long scene!!!!

[Vee]

I would also write her out. I like Watros and I've enjoyed her Nina this past year but she doesn't need to be here another five years, even if PM was still here.

[carolineg]

I feel like Nina was pretty vital when she was paired with Sonny too.  I disliked the pairing, although I really think it had some fans and it was completely dropped.  I know people will come for me, but I do think Ava/Nina tend to cancel one another out and there isn't enough material for the both of them.

Fine by me!  

[Contessa Donatella]

I am totally behind this idea for Watros & for us as fans!!!

[ranger1rg]

And he was absolutely terrible. That's one of the worst cameos I've seen in forever, and my mouth was open at how awful all of it was.

Why not give work to a REAL actor instead of doing this -- something that adds nothing to the show? This kind of bad stunt casting adds no viewers. All it does it make me stare at the screen and wonder how this ever made it to air.

The guy gave line readings that could not have been worse while having a fakeass smile plastered to his face.

Sorry, that was horrific and embarrassing.

Yeah... the Golden Bachelor was pointless and unnecessary. And the same can be said for the whole Quartermaine crypt thing.

Luckily, Chase and Dante made today worth watching

And so were the Lucky/Liz/Aiden scenes. We really need more of those because the three of them work really well together as a family. Hopefully, Lucky and Liz will get to have a romantic night together soon. Too bad we won't get to see Aiden's sleepover though

Having Aiden walk through the room and out the front door just isn't enough, though. GH has yet to make Aiden a real character. It's a missed opportunity.

I also think it's a miss to have Laura interrupt Liz and Lucky. We've seen that happen so many times before , and I think it's a soap cliche that's tired. I think we've waited long enough.

Watros is so wasted. They have an actor capable of playing a world class soap psychopath, and they waste her begging for Willow’s crumbs.

I’ll be in the minority and say I enjoy both Ava and Nina and I wouldn’t want either one of them off the show.

Carly defending Quartermaines. What a time to be alive. Willow is so dickmatized she legit doesn’t care about anything Drew does, doesn’t care what’s written, she’s completely ride or die. I have to wonder if she’ll even care that he banged her mom a year ago.

God I love Ric’s disdain for Kristina.

Sign me up for Carly and Nina scheming.
