GH: The Carly Propping

Featured Replies

Natalia plays every scene the same way. There's no change in ANY of her emotions. Hell, maybe the chick should learn how to freakin emote first. When she's supposed to be angry she looks like she has cramps or something and her face freezes up (maybe it's botox or something). I still can't believe she beat RC for that damn statuette.

Don't give me that damn "they are cousins" mess. Jonathan and Tammy are cousins on GL who are banging each other.

Yes and that story has done WONDERS for GL's ratings <looks at GL's recent 2.1s and 2.2s>...yes yes, thats the soap that GH should try to be like :rolleyes:

On another note, Ric is a dumbass, loser, Sonny ass-kissing, no balls having sick prick

They should just kill Carly off.

There is no point in this character anymore. She has ZERO redeeming qualities and yet Guza insists on making her a heroine and this goddess that should be worshipped. Carly is trash, pure and simple. Even Bobbie had more class when she was a bad girl.

It also doesn't help that LW is constantly playing her as a one note !@#$%^&*]. Maybe that's because she's played nothing but good girls and victims while she's been on soaps, but she needs to tone it down. A character is not entertaining and not worth rooting for if they are always acting like a diva. This Carly is the white Star Jones.

Other characters are being screwed over in favor of her and it's wrong. It's time for Carly to be put to pasture, and let some other people shine. Guza needs to realize there are other females on here besides his beloved trick baby.

I couldn't agree more.

Laura Wright is the ONLY thing that keeps watching this show.

I think vulnerability is in Laura's portrayal of Carly. My goodness, during the Manic Depression episodes? Especially when she told Sonny taht she was gonna "save him"? One-note !@#$%^&*] my ass.

Tamara was SO weak as Carly. SOOOO unbelievably weak. Laura's Carly is SO Sarah Brown.

There is NO justice in this world if Laura Wright is not nominated for an Emmy in 07. NONE!

The Carly Propping must stop. Its getting ridiculous now. We're supposed to believe Carly is so hot and desireable that all of these men who have nothing in common are talking about how hot she is. This is one character that needs less airtime. She didn't stop a minute between her "love" for Jax to try to sleep with Patrick and relizing her "love" for Sonny. Its just ridiculous now. I'm also sick of the Sam, Jason, and Sony and Emily Propping but I guess those rants are for another day.
I'm so sick of the writers making heroes out of mobsters and their women that I can't stand to watch it anymore.

I cannot stand LW's Carly. There is no softness; no vulnerbility which I saw with the other three actresses. Laura is a major reason I gave up GH. She is a decent actress but she's got to dial down the !@#$%^&*]iness big time.

The Boys Night Out scenes were so horribly lame but my problem with how they're using Carly in this is not that she's being propped as the most desirable female in PC, but that Carly won't act on her instincts. She teases and taunts and plays the seductive slut quite nicely, but when it comes down to it, she doesn't even give the guy's a quickie. How many times did she seduce and nearly bed Patrick, but then back away realizing that it may not be the most appropriate time to "self destruct"? Either act the role or stop giving the guy's blue balls. (I'm still waiting for Carly/Patrick though. They would be far more enjoyable than watching Patrick defend his morals to Robin)

To even further add to the lameness of those scenes, of all people, LULU is the one to drag her away from her night of "fun"??? Riiiiiiiiiight, because all of a sudden Carly and LuLu are best gal pals. Suuuuuuure.

I don't think there was all that much softness in Jennifer's Carly, IMO I thought her Carly was just plain hard, no give or take anywhere with the character.

Laura Wright is the ONLY thing that keeps watching this show.

Totally agree! ;)

Yeah, Jennifer's Carly didn't have too much softness, softness was something Tamara did the best out of all the Carly's imo. However, I think Jennifer played depressed/breaking-down really well. When it comes to the !@#$%^&*] we love to hate, Sarah does that better than anyone ever will in that role. Sorry, I don't see the similarities between Sarah and Laura, maybe in the way both Carly's were written, but Sarah's acting chops were raw, direct, and something not often seen in daytime. She totally brought something new to the medium. Strictly speaking on ACTING ABILITY alone, I do not see any traits like that with Laura. Laura can act, but I suspect she would pull off a softer, less complex character better. Laura admitted that she thought she'd "kick butt" as an actress with Carly in her Soap Talk interview, I think that confidence and thinking that highly of herself is what makes her Carly come off as a one-note !@#$%^&*]. I doubt, Sarah and Tamara went into the role like that. But, you said it yourself, to each their own.

That's how I feel about Kelly Monaco's acting. Maybe she doesn't have the best voice to act so that's something that might bring her down but how did she manage to get a nom for Lead Actress anyway.

Yes and that story has done WONDERS for GL's ratings <looks at GL's recent 2.1s and 2.2s>...yes yes, thats the soap that GH should try to be like :rolleyes:

It's not even the subject. GH is never going to do a Carly/Lucky kissin cousins SL. Maybe I'm wrong but that obviously was a ;) to GL's Jonathan/Tammy storyline where Laura Wright played a big part of the story.

They should just kill Carly off.

I would be pissed off if they fired Laura Wright before the end of her contract which is in 2009. That would be a really bad bad bad bad move!

But those ladies hadn't been acting on TV for 15 years and weren't "stolen" from another show when they got the role. They probably did not even have a lot of fans.
