Gam2 February 19, 2019 Share February 19, 2019 Why has Dom looked so sad in the couple of photos we’ve seen in the past few days? Is it because he’s only going to be on GH for a few episodes? I always liked his character and his acting so I wish he’d come back for good. 1 Link to comment

dubbel zout February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 I didn't like her much as Kristina, but her work after GH has been pretty good. Her excitement at the Oscars was really fun, though I thought the person filming the whole thing with his phone was kind of obnoxious. I get it—it's a huge moment—but it seemed disruptive to me. 2 Link to comment

dubbel zout March 1, 2019 Share March 1, 2019 (edited) Quote Last year, “General Hospital,” for example, told tales of gender identity, cults, #MeToo and Alzheimer’s. “The stories arise from the characters who are primed to be involved in very contemporary conflicts,” says “General Hospital” head writer Shelly Altman. Adds Altman, "We write them as shallowly as possible so we don't have to do any extensive research, and we center them around our main character, Sonny Corinthos, so the attention stays where it should."

TeeVee329 March 2, 2019 Share March 2, 2019 Yeah, funny how there's no mention of that very "contemporary, relatable" beat in the Alzheimer story where Mike faked that he was having an episode to get out of a mob-related crime. Ugh, Shelly Altman really thinks her show's writing is sooo groundbreaking and progressive, she is really fooling herself. 6 Link to comment

They had like a 10 seconds spot yesterday during the commercials with LW, Carly Corinthos, and a happy international women's day written below. It was anger inducing for me.

Sake614 March 13, 2019 Share March 13, 2019 https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/icymi-brytni-sarpy-interview/ in somewhat related news, she’s also in a Lays potato chips commercial (well two that I’ve seen so far) and isn’t half bad. I wish her well at Y&R. 3 Link to comment

dubbel zout March 13, 2019 Share March 13, 2019 I wonder if he told her he had all sorts of plans for Valerie, the way he does for every actor who leaves. "If you'd just stick around a bit longer, we'll have a really great story for you." Valerie was yet another wasted opportunity. 5 Link to comment
HeatLifer March 13, 2019 Share March 13, 2019 The character of Valerie was screwed from the get-go the second she appeared on-screen and her main purpose was to come between a major pairing. Then on top of that, had Valerie attack Lulu even after the cheating was exposed. No character on paper can recover from that unless the actor is already respected by the audience and gives some type of special performance that out shines the main actors. 2 Link to comment
Oracle42 March 13, 2019 Share March 13, 2019 I think they still could've redeemed her if they'd gone in the obvious soap direction of having her fall for Dillon while they were scheming together. They had more chem together anyway - and it might've kept FV/RC from dropping Valerie and Dante into the black hole they disappeared into when the affair tanked Valerie/Kristina were also viable. FV just wasn't interested. 5 Link to comment

FV just wasn't interested. They would have had to attempted Val and Dillion after the first time. They also made the mistake of having Dante cheat more than once. They reaaaaallly tried to trash Lante and if JMB would have still been in the role, Dante never would have recovered in MY eyes. 2 Link to comment

I remember him on Days of Our Lives when he played Don Craig. He was brilliant as CC Capwell. His stint on GH was horrible but it was not his fault. Jed Allen was only 2 years older than Stuart Damon, who played his on screen son, Alan Quartermaine. There was no way it was going to work. Jed should have been cast as a Quartermain cousin. 4 Link to comment

Totally agree. I actually think that's one of the reasons Valerie could've recovered. Also: - NuLu/Dante didn't have the history or the chemistry of Lulu/Dante - RC/FV were obviously trying to match up NuLu with someone else - first Cheetwood Jr, then NuDillon - it was all so wildly, stupidly ridiculously OOC for Dante that it was hard to take it seriously. 3 Link to comment
