I ...What an intelligent insight into the business. I must admit I have VERY fond memories of GH in the 80s with Luke & Laura, and Robert & Anna, (and later Lucy and Kevin). As a teenager I'd run home to try to watch GH. I had stopped watching about 15 years ago (occassionally checking in) and came back more reg when Vanessa came back. It's been a bit of a waste of time - some horrible writing (and such slow pacing, ughhh).Tarasanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-55143519974382169092011-05-26T17:39:55.661-04:002011-05-26T17:39:55.661-04:00True Andrea Days is good about using their vets.So...True Andrea Days is good about using their vets.So are OLTL they kick butt really on their vets and writing.Im going to watch Y&R just for Genie.....Mamaspat Olehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01953456600282290123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-72615511913136436932011-05-26T11:31:14.536-04:002011-05-26T11:31:14.536-04:00Mamaspat: Days is returning to its vets though.

With the return of Carly, Justin, Adrienne,Jennifer and now Jack, Days is at least learning what us viewers want to see. Many of the newer characters have ties to Salem and they are on for a reason.Andreanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-34438861671091147162011-05-26T11:00:05.477-04:002011-05-26T11:00:05.477-04:00As long as I can remember, Tristan has been a nega...As long as I can remember, Tristan has been a negative person with never a decent thing to say about soaps. Even when he was a 'star' on GH, and really, who heard of him before GH? This kind of never ending negativity has really hurt soaps over the years...Hopenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-23561409725485661982011-05-26T10:23:06.837-04:002011-05-26T10:23:06.837-04:00I think so too Karen.It's not just a Cliffhang...I think so too Karen.It's not just a Cliffhanger Friday show.It even gives AMC a run for its money.But I think its soaps in general remember Days firing of John and Marlena.They too have gone in the crapper as far as writing is concerned.I watched Tristen some the other day hes a true actor in ever sense.Mamaspat Olehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01953456600282290123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-51272598161271550532011-05-26T09:42:41.045-04:002011-05-26T09:42:41.045-04:00I think GH is done as well and we can't save i...I think GH is done as well and we can't save it. It's sad but it's been in the wind forever. We tried to save it years ago. I disagree a bit with Tristan about the writing. OLTL even with no budget and no PR and crap thrown at it manages to write a damn good show day to day.kdmaskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05308182064350109835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-22624700366574627322011-05-26T09:07:34.884-04:002011-05-26T09:07:34.884-04:00Wow Karen!

Fantastic article!I was particularly noting that Tristan said Guza definately and obviously did not act alone in dismantling the legacies of the show. He was most certainly given the go-ahead by higher ups.I wish he could name them. He was pretty scathing on the mob storyline ( "bargain basement criminals , LOL :) ). I was also really loved when he talked about the dismantling of storyline as going back since 2006.<br />There are actually very few actors left on this show. I was struck by him saying what we all know, that Guza has very little respect for women.<br />On ravenbeauty's site a poster responded to her latest spoilers by telling her they are someone on the inside of a show. They said she is so right and implied that there would be some unbelievable shakeups and then filming would be done. I'm thinking GH has even less time than we think.lisanoreply@blogger.com
