Chairperson Meow January 25, 2017 Share January 25, 2017 I'm here to see JVP collect a nom and a trophy. And to sacrifice anything to stop Franco from getting a nomination. This is prenoms, right? I hope the voters love CBS. I can't deal with Emmy nominated Franco. On the other hand, if Roger is nominated, maybe he will get a decent haircut. I literally need to see the reels. If BC' s has his last scene, I will die. Billy Miller must really be getting something from GH to stay with no nom this year and no wins since he's arrived. 1 Link to comment

Hopefully the EP will be strong enough to contain it instead of letting him run hog wild like FV eventually did. I feel sorry for the actors on DooL if RC writing leads to the death of GH, as the actors (especially those young enough to work full-time, but too old that they would be make the leap to Prime time television) will have one less place to go if they are forced out of DooL.

jsbt January 26, 2017 Share January 26, 2017 (edited) I'm not going to jump to the assumption that Ron alone means that DAYS can topple GH. He had a lot of help from Frank, who, sins aside, knows how to cut a budget to the bone and get value for his dollar if and when he wants to. (Though these days he seems to be spending more on outside stars instead of the essentials.) Together, working in what appeared to be sync at the time, they got GH's budget down and its ratings up because they were largely in concert about the creative vision of their show. They also were not taping six months out; if they were, GH would've probably gone off the air in '12. Ron has more stumbling blocks to work with at NBC: DAYS has a ridiculous tape-to-air gap, its budget is bargain basement even below GH, and it has not one but several producers, including the show's heir who is notorious for being an ADD control freak who can't go longer than six months without reversing a decision or firing a writer to bring back one of his known hack friends. He had to be forced to fire Dena Higley at least twice. I can't see Ken Corday and co. vouchsafing for Ron the way Frank used to unless they are compelled to by Sony. If the producers are told to facilitate Ron's vision (within reason) and do so, DAYS has a good shot. Frank has long since lost perspective and objectivity at GH, he's not the producer he used to be and the show is weak. But it's not where it was in early 2012, where people (me included) thought it was DOA. DAYS has been at death's door for longer than GH was and it is operating with several disadvantages. If Ron can both turn it around and manage to knock GH off its perch, that I will call a miracle. Edited January 26, 2017 by jsbt 7 Link to comment

I don't think any human can stand this bullshit crap stories that Liz/BH has been told to do the past few years. Sweet Jebus, the whole damn story of Liz's rapist ended up being all about Franco! Tom Baker's release should've been a great story for Liz, Monica, Jason and even Tracy. Coping with his return to town. Having Jason recall and perhaps be tempted to threaten Tom. It would've interesting to have Nik around for this event too. With his involvement with both Liz and Emily. But no. We get Tom Baker out and it was all about Franco and his hurt widdle feelings. Not about the Qs. Not about Jason. And certainly not about Tom's victim, Liz. Does anyone really want to see rape survivor Liz date and prop up serial killer, Franco? I just don't understand what the obsession this show has with Franco. Christ. End the fiasco! Give RoHo another character. Let it be Todd or even an all new character. Don't care. There is a shit ton of major problems this show has with characters, writing and pacing. But the idiotic coupling of Liz to Franco is just nightmarish. The writing is terrible for all women. Hell, it is bad for everyone, but women seem to have it the worst. 6 Link to comment

Liz rape wasn't about her, her child dead wasn't about her, her rapist being release wasn't about her. Everything is about propping the males and their emmy storyline, From Tony Geary, Jonathan Jackson, Billy Miller (what a flop he is) and now Roger Howard.

dubbel zout January 27, 2017 Share January 27, 2017 (edited) From all I've read, BH is very non confrontational. Elizabeth was backburned for years, and BH never said a word. As ulkis wrote, it's too late for that, and even if she did, I don't think being paired with Soap Legend Roger Howarth and getting major airtime is when to start complaining. They'd trash Elizabeth even more than they already have and stick her back behind the nurses station filing charts. Edited January 27, 2017 by dubbel zout 4 Link to comment

yowsah1 January 29, 2017 Share January 29, 2017 (edited) Does anybody remember the television series SINS, which was supposed to star Nathan Parsons and Rick Hearst and a bunch of other daytime and nighttime luminaries? There was a blurb on it in (IIRC) SOD and it was listed on Parsons and Hearst's IMDB pages, complete with descriptions of episodes and the like. Yet any search for an actual television network or streaming service or whatever hosting the show came up as a goose egg. It was weird. Well, now the weirdness has just gotten weirder. I had reason to go on Nathan Parsons IMDB page today and the entry for SINS is gone. Completely scrubbed off. Same for Rick Hearst's page. Same for the show page (it no longer exists). Everything relating to this so-called television series is just... gone. What the hell is the story here? EDIT: I take back the part about the show page being pulled, it showed up after a Google search, and, boy, does the comment section have a tale to tell. Looks like SOD got punk'd - the whole thing was just a big scam. Edited January 29, 2017 by yowsah1 Link to comment

I suspect the latter. Either way, I bet the lawsuits will be a'flyin' soon. Link to comment
