Ambrosefolly July 13, 2016 Share July 13, 2016 I actually think she would be a good Christina, age and all. If this was a more coherent show, Chloe Lanier being added, as a legacy or completely unrelated character, would be a good thing for this show. Maybe she would be a legacy, maybe a business woman/college grad that crosses paths with Michael in the business world or a intern doctor. But it isn't. As someone mentioned on this forum, the TIIC do everything ass backwards and hope for the best. While I get that being teen obsessed isn't the answer to ratings or even the most interesting stories, I do think there should be some focus on teens who aren't Morgan and Kiki, to have the audience connect to younger characters as they move on to adult roles on the show. Sometimes I wonder if the showrunners have any interaction with the real world, but my gathering is that they aren't very talented, coupled with the cutting of time and resources to produce a good show. The current regime isn't very good at developing characters, (new or old). The problem isn't necessarily that they bring a ton of new, unrelated characters, it is the characters lack any true nuance or strong core. I think that Valentin will eventually fizzle, like Dr.O did, because the regime isn't smart enough to write cerebral characters. They had Dr.O pretty much steal the C.O.S position, but they RC/FV never followed through with the (promised) storyline to have a terrorist ousted from that position by the staff. 4 Link to comment

KELLY: I know. He is ridiculously good. Jason is funny. We will be getting ready to start a scene and he will be like, “Um, how did we get here?” And I go, “What are you talking about?” And he will go, “Did we drive here … or did we walk?” I go, “We f***ing drove!” (Laughs) Next he says, “Well, did you drive, or did I drive?” I say, “We took a driver!” And then he says, “Well, is it cold out? Were we holding hands before we came in, or what?” And I go, “NO! I am pissed at you because I am thinking about my husband!” (Laughs) I said to Jason, “Stop asking so many questions. Just say the lines and go! Just stand there and look pretty, because I talk all the time!” (Laughs) lol at "we fucking drove!" https://www.instagram.com/p/BH3UXEqDUaE/ I'm really not so sure about this look for Bryan Craig.

WendyCR72 July 20, 2016 Share July 20, 2016 Okay gang, the talk about ASJ and his political affiliations and connections needs to go elsewhere now. It is in danger of taking over the thread and creating a hostile environment. If you do wish to discuss it, there are many politically-leaning sites and boards out there. But let's leave this for GH and its own problems and away from PTV, which frowns upon politics as a rule. Thank you for cooperating. 2 Link to comment

The same baby that Carly has retconned into being her very own child? She actively ruined AJ's life for the "sin" of hooking up with her and creating Michael, but she's already besties with Nina?
