Doesn’t he complain literally every time he’s not used? I’ve never really had a use for Scott personally even though I know he’s as legacy as legacy gets on the show. Him randomly turning out to be Franco’s dad was so stupid.

Kin complains constantly. That's no way to keep a job.

Years ago, Scotty was a good character and Kin did a great job. The last 10 years have been filled with over-the-top performances by a guy who looks like a lawnmower ran over his head.

 

-- These writers better give us a reason that Ronnie signed that fake will in the first place. If it's not a good one (or if they don't give us one) this story goes down as a dud.

This Ronnie story has got to be one of the worst stories I've ever seen from this show. So Ronnie decided to collude with Martin in this fake will scheme all because Tracy was nasty to her? Really? Wow... I hope when this dumb story is over that Ronnie is completely driven out of town and we never see nor hear from her ever again. And I also won't blame Tracy if she ends up kicking out and disowning every single person that has sided with Ronnie in this debacle.

She really looks like Alexa in this picture

Didn't realize she's the daughter of actor Billy Burke who played the fire chief on Fire Country until his character was killed off.   His acting really impressed me on that show.

I don't really care about the character of Charlotte.  At all. But I liked the photo.

Bluesy is a real choice of name lol.  But she makes me not hate Charlotte anymore, so that helps her cause a lot.

Don't get me started.

I'm sure she's a nice girl but Charlotte needs to be wished into the cornfield. It will never matter who plays her AFAIC. Valentin reveals a secret, Charlotte tells her non-mother, there's some crying, off she goes to find her true relatives, and Lulu gets drunk, crashes out and has wild grieving sex with Dante. That's it! Do it in a week! Two at the outside.

LOL I agree.   
I'm more interested in the actress' father Billy Burke than I am in the character Charlotte.

It's awful.

Listen, if Charlotte never appeared again I wouldn't question it.  The correct thing to do is retcon Lulu as her mother and send her to boarding school forever.

If we have to live with her than this actress is fine.  At least she doesn't say Papa anymore.

I did not expect the absolute heat that came with Drewcifer entered Nina's office. I hope when Willow bounces on to Chase, Nina and Drew have lots of hate sex. 

Why does GH have so many key characters without even *potential* love interests? It's almost all women and most of the best ones: Lulu, Anna, Ava, Nina, Alexis, Kristina and Tracy. Dante is the exception. I'll never understand pulling the plug on Ric/Ava/Cody. That had a lot of potential.

Not quite relationships, but something is going on: Liz has Ric (stalker), Cody/Molly (infantile), Michael/Jasinda, Sonny/ADA Bot, Britt/Jason, Sidwell/Lucy and, of course, Nathan/Maxie.

This has been a problem for a long time.   I can't even remember the last time Alexis had a real love interest.  

The show seriously lacks romance. The only stable couples on the show are Chase/Brook Lynn, Ned/Olivia and Felicia/Mac.  The latter two don't count for much of anything regarding their romance.  I suppose you can count off screen Kevin/Laura.

Even all the potential pairings you mentioned don't have much appeal.  Maybe Britt/Jason to some parts of the audience?  The rest are with day players, boring or with an actress who appears to be off screen indefinitely (Maxie).

Ouch!  First Abby gets killed by a crane and now Michael calls her an escort.  She was a stripper that was going to have sex with Michael for free as a favor to Sam!!!

DT must be so happy Curtis got his Laura fix today.

I like Ava and Portia's friendship a lot.

I was thinking that unless the definition  of "escort" has changed than I don't remember Abby being an escort. I don't know if it's more funny that the show thinks she was or if Michael thinks she was.

No, Abby was always Sam's stripper friend.  The reason it gets murky is Sam offered to pay Abby to sleep with virginal, traumatized Michael because Michael asked for a hooker to get his first time over with (okay, Sam...).  Abby didn't actually sleep with Michael that night nor did she ever intend to take the money.  The show went out of their way back then to make it clear she was "only" a stripper.  

I assume the show just lumped the whole sex worker thing together and RG's Michael would have no idea.  I mean, probably only 10 of us remember Abby at all.  Her death by crane was the most exciting thing about her lol.

Shake my damn head at how dumb some can be

At least it is not Pilot Inspektor or Apple. Now those are choices of names. 😬 Bluesy is not as bad as I initially thought it was, and I'm okay with it. And honestly, anyone outside of Scarlett Fernandez has been an improvement in the role of Charlotte.

They had heat from the jump when Patrick Mulcahey put them together last year for hate sex. That's pretty much nuked now by everything that's happened since, and I've enjoyed evil Drew and the Willow crashout and think a lot of it has been good for the show, but it was clear to me anyway that PM had Drew and Nina on a glidepath to end up together despite his scandalous thing with Willow. With today's Drew, who is considerably darker, it'll never happen.

I agree about the lack of romance but you only have to look at how FV refuses to put Dante and Lulu back together with these actors to see how fúcked the show's priorities are. When they finally do it'll be like a year from now and he'll probably fire one or both immediately after.
