Dandesun October 14, 2014 Share October 14, 2014 Honestly, Guza has always looked to me like he was trying to look like Elton John (complete with glasses) which has always been...confusing to me. Guza always struck me as soap opera's answer to Karl Lagerfeld. And by that I mean... the seriously low rent not nearly as fashionable or clever version. But it's probably more true that he was trying to be Jason. And failing. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4122-gh-in-the-news-the-pc-press-club/page/20/#findComment-468001

And by that I mean... the seriously low rent not nearly as fashionable or clever version. But it's probably more true that he was trying to be Jason. And failing. There's this Canadian show called Slings and Arrows about a Shakespeare theater company and there was a character who was a hack director on the show who I would have sworn was based on Guza if I thought any of the writers knew anything about GH lol. There's an exchange where the good director says to the hack, "you know what your problem is? You actually hate the theater." And the hack replies, "I don't hate the theater. I pity it. More people listen to the radio than go to the theater. And nobody listens to the radio." When I first heard that I thought, "insert 'soap opera' for 'theater' and that's Guza's condescending douchiness in a nutshell."

I mean, he handles having three hot young men, two who are a decent amount taller than him, play his sons, pretty well, so I think he'll be okay.

I think it's the other way around: The Emmys used to mean something and it did get a lot of eyeballs in front of the TV, hence all those prime-time soap episodes before the actual ceremony. But I think part of the draw was seeing if Susan Lucci would win or lose. And, I don't think it's a coincidence that, after she finally snagged one in 1999, that is when the ratings started to erode and never stopped. (And I don't even like SL as an actress, too hammy.
