dubbel zout July 25, 2016 Share July 25, 2016 Valerie has had minimal contact with the Spencers since the cheating story. So what was the point of making her a cousin? That story could have been written without the family connection. She's posted at the hospital. Why hasn't she seen Lucas? Why hasn't Carly asked her to do some poking around into Joss's kidney woes? That's one reason the character doesn't work, IMO. The show gave her a family, but we never see her with them. We don't even get lip service that she has lunch with Bobbie every so often. 11 Link to comment
TeeVee329 July 25, 2016 Share July 25, 2016 Relatedly, I thought it was weird Valerie and Griffin noted that they have Lucas in common when they met in scenes a week or so ago, given the zero interest the show has in Valerie being Lucas' cousin and in Griffin being Lucas' friend. 6 Link to comment
Asp Burger July 25, 2016 Share July 25, 2016 Well, even in the real world, there are bars, strip clubs, pizza parlors, and upscale restaurants that do brisk business and it's no secret in the local communities that the owners are connected or more. The nicest thing to say about Valerie is that the actress, Brytni Sarpi, is really gorgeous, has a great smile, and can convey a basic niceness when the writing isn't horribly stacked against her. She's not good enough to turn junk into gold, but she isn't terrible either, by the daytime standards of pretty under-30 people. I've seen far worse on GH and on other soaps. She can hold her own with her most frequent scene partners. Something she does pretty well is flirtation; I'm thinking of scenes like the ones where she and Curtis are playing pool. So there are possibilities there. 6 Link to comment
stlbf July 25, 2016 Share July 25, 2016 I honestly think that the idiots who came up with the insane Dante cheats with Valerie crap, thought it was a hot soapy story. That person is, of course, a moron. Why the hell every single soap genre writer isn't made to read Doug Marland's rules on soap writing is beyond me. Valerie's non Spencerness is just the easy issue with this show's writers. Nobody has any real family. When was the last time Lulu spent time with Liz and her boys? Or with Nik and Spencer? Why the fuck hasn't Maxie been all over her cousin Lucas and his rare plotlines? Why no toddler Georgie at his wedding? Fuck, just say that she was there (off screen) and with Felicia and Mac? Valerie should've been spending time with Carly, Bobbie, Lucas and Lulu. Not making cow eyes at Lulu's husband. Actively trying to implode a marriage. Which is not a good way to endear a new character to your audience. As far as this show goes, the only family that counts is the one named Corinthos. The Qs are barely there. Even Michael isn't a real Q anymore. He is back to being Sonny's son. The Spencer's are in name only. The Jeromes? Ha! Both are about Sonny. Julian being the "bad guy" for Sonny and Ava is connected via Avery. The Qs? Tracy is stuck in being a side kick for the Pretty Princess and also for Dr. Michael Easton. Monica? Babysitter and occasionally at the hospital now. Dillon? Is now being set up a rival to Morgan Corinthos for Lauren. Ned? Would have to be on the show. And the fact that he barely said a word to Olivia happily raising Leo with Julian, after his family mother fucking LOST THEIR FAMILY BUSINESS to Nik was insane to me. 13 Link to comment

Cobalt Stargazer July 25, 2016 Share July 25, 2016 Re Valerie: I said whenever the last time was when I was caught up on the thread that she's about as much of a Spencer as Carly is, since except for scenes with Luke every three months she hardly ever spends time with her blood relatives. Not that that makes Val any less pointless as a character, especially when Show is bursting at the seams with people and yet they keep hiring and re-hiring.

Without preamble or long drawn out explanations or none of the guards disarming her. Or her tripping on her feet. Or Dante warning her to be careful (all of which will happen tomorrow, i'm sure) Just: Valentin: "Which one of you do I kill first?" Lulu: <shot to the head> "You..... bitch."

I didn't think I'd care about Hayden and Liz's potential relationship, but I like the way they are weaving Naomi/Heather/Jeff/Raymond/Hayden/Liz/Franco all together. It's got my attention for now. The Naomi actress has really grown on me. Why does Kristina have to talk to her father about her sexuality and sex life one foot away from the tangled sheets where she had sex with Parker? Alluding to it would have been fine, but outright telling him that she had sex with Parker last night, and then Sonny looking at the bed....Eeek! Call me old-fashioned, but why can't they both pretend that neither of them has sex? That's what healthy parent-child relationships are about. Cassadine Island was okay.

Tall, blonde, pretty and smart like her doctor parents. Which was why Liz always had a pretty bad case of sibling inferiority complex when she first came to town. She grew up feeling second best with her "perfect" sister and brother. They looked perfect to her. They had straight As in school, never caused trouble and were very easy to raise. But Sarah and Liz seem to have got past over everything. Last I remember, Sarah was living in California. Because I remember Liz taking the boys and even Spencer to visit her. I think that she is also married. But I'm not 100% on that. So I just don't think that I could buy RBU as Sarah. Me? I still think that it would've been better to make her Liz and Sarah's cousin. Making RBU the daughter of an unknown aunt or uncle to them. Via their unnamed mother. As for the Cassadine stuff, what a disappointing disaster! Valentin is just a whiner? This is the man who made Helena fearful? Meh. So far, this storyline is just a joke. There was no need to connect Hayden to the show when she is not needed, IMO.

REBU doesn't act--she REACTS, depending on her character's current circumstances. Her hair hangs in her eyes, her eyes shift back and forth, she's jerky and watchful. She is a mess. There is nothing special about the actress...she just reacts obediently to the basic script. She isn't memorable in her expressions or voice or body language. She's cautious and therefore intensely boring. Are they gonna let her learn "on the job" over a period of four years? WHAT A STUPID IDEA! Show either needs to hire real talent in the younger non-vets or give the time and budget to the vets who have proven they can bring it. This is all on FV and his building a mega soap with popular actors/characters from the other soap operas. I swear FV was not this big of a fucking mess when he was EP at OLTL. How many actors has this man hired in the last four years?! I saw a tweeted picture over the weekend that had Valentini's ark where he asked for FIVE Michael Easton's!

Older men with younger women is something I see enough of in real life - it's not what I watch soaps for. I want to see attractive people falling in and out of love with each other. Not creeping up on someone like a crazed stalker to discuss a date while in the presence of a patient. Sonny snarking that Parker is much older than Kristina was golden. 2 Link to comment
teenj12 July 26, 2016 Share July 26, 2016 The Sonny/Kristina scenes today were definitely a long time coming, but I agree with whoever said they felt weirded out that they talked right in the room where Kristina had sex the other night. 2 Link to comment
