admiralrodcocker April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 UGH. I don't even like Iggy, but how awkward for her as a grown ass woman to have to explain to a CHILD about her breast implants. So much wrong here... Why do his parents allow this? Is his mom a Dina Lohan type? 7 Link to comment
UYI April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 I'll give Iggy this, she handled it pretty well, and seemed as weirded out by him asking it as we are. 1 Link to comment
Sake614 April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 I actually pointed that out in the main thread - it's weird how Frank or someone didn't try to give them a heads-up. FV has to know by now how ABC 7 interrupts a lot more than other affiliates tend to. wouldn't have mattered. The news division couldn't care less about the entertainment division. 1 Link to comment
Box305 April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 While that's weird, and I get why peeps are irritated, the overreaction has reached epic levels. To say someone needs to lose their job over this? To act like this was an intentional sign of disrespect and HOW DARE THEY!!!!?? ABC NY should have blocked Ron's and SID's Twitter accounts bc that's exactly what they would do if fans sent them messages like that. Yes, that was actually hilarious "Heads should roll!!" Come on, guys. Calm down. I was just annoyed I sat through it and then missed the end for an interruption that didn't really need to happen. Link to comment

Yup, Geary kinda gave it away that he and Logan have shit on the masks in conversations between them Did Ron try to deny it was supposed to be Bill? The best part of Geary admitting that though? He also said it was because too many people guessed. Ahahaha Geary I take it back. I love you just for today. 6 Link to comment
TeeVee329 April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 Did Ron try to deny it was supposed to be Bill? He certainly did a lot of crowing on his Twitter the day of the not-Bill reveal. "You were WRONG, audience, it wasn't Bill!". I'm also pretty sure he said in some interview that they locked in who Fluke was from day one and that Geary's leave didn't change the story. 3 Link to comment
jsbt April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 Did Ron try to deny it was supposed to be Bill? I firmly believe he would have in some interview if Tony had not busted him. He's done it before and he has an ego about outwitting the audience. Not even for fun purposes, just because he seems to regard a lot of the modern plugged-in audience as an actual antagonist. 4 Link to comment

TeeVee329 April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 Yeah, I vaguely remember Ron gloating about how it's not Bill on his Twitter.

That's kinda pathetic, to not be able to admit you changed gears. And about how Tracy wasn't dumb after all for not realizing she wasn't sleeping with Luke.

TeeVee329 April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 And honestly, changing gears is often the nature of this genre. Budgets are cut, actors opt out of their contracts, and in this case, he had to deal with a lengthy medical leave. 2 Link to comment
HeatLifer April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 I get changing gears. But changing gears bc the audience figured it out? Really? So should I expect Hayden to be Robin in a mask? Is Jake really Lucky? Is Patrick really Jerry? Where does it end? At some point the story has to be consistent. And not change bc the audience is smarter than you. 11 Link to comment

And the reason is exactly what we've talked about here, too. For fuck's sake... stop worrying about out-witting the audience!! Just write the god damn story!! This shit chaps my ass. 11 Link to comment
jsbt April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 The thing is, there's still shit Luke did that doesn't make sense now because he had to tell us to fuck off. I expect Ron to drop something in to cover for it soon enough - he does that more and more now, like the time he pointedly dropped a very clunky scene on the audience where Robin went on and on about not having PTSD. 5 Link to comment
HeatLifer April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 Nothing will ever make sense on this show. Ron doesn't care if anything adds up. That much is clear. Link to comment

Dandesun April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 (edited) Here's the most ridiculous part... We guessed it was Bill: it was. We guessed they'd change that it was Bill: they did. We guessed that Ron would insist that this was what he had written all along: he did. We guessed they'd change it being Bill because we guessed it was Bill: that was why. Clue in, Ron. You won't out-wit the audience. They know the direction of the story, they know you're going to change it and they know why. The audience has trumped you. Stop fucking around trying to be clever because it results in absolute bullshit like this and you succeeded in fooling no one! Edited April 1, 2015 by Dandesun 19 Link to comment

FV has to know by now how ABC 7 interrupts a lot more than other affiliates tend to. Yeah, I watch the Boston feed for ABC and, if I hear about a snowflake, I say "uh oh - news bulletins." Love him or hate him - or somewhere in between, I do enjoy this quote from Tony: ""Okay, right now we're in comic book world and there's no point in trying to justify it. Let's just get through this f--king day and hope for something better tomorrow." 6 Link to comment
Dandesun April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 If we're in comic book world, can I suggest that Wilson Fisk come into Port Charles and destroy Sonny? That Matt Murdock show up and annihilate Franco and ship Nina off to parts unknown? Can Peggy Carter jump through a time warp and kick the living shit out of everyone? Can an Asgardian artifact wake up and flatten the whole city? 6 Link to comment

Francie April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 This interview is so quip worthy: I didn't have time to research any of it. By the time I knew where the writers were headed, I was already in the deep end of the pool. I was just enjoying it too much to be worried about whether Luke was technically psychotic or schizophrenic, or whether he was having an identity crisis or just plain insane. I just went with my gut. You went with your gut and a thousand billion weird accents, including those of a Brit and a Tennesee Williams heroine. 10 Link to comment
dubbel zout April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 You won't out-wit the audience. They know the direction of the story, they know you're going to change it and they know why. It's like he's surprised we actually watch the show. 3 Link to comment
Francie April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 Did Ron try to deny it was supposed to be Bill? Where have you been? This is RON we're talking about! First, he chastised viewers by saying how. dare. they. think he was making this up as he went along. He flat out said that the story never changed. And then he crowed that we were all stupid to say it was Bill. It's like he's surprised we actually watch the show. If he was, that'd be the sanest thing about him! ""Okay, right now we're in comic book world and there's no point in trying to justify it. Let's just get through this f--king day and hope for something better tomorrow." That, and Jane's 'we're on the Titanic' quote were my two favorite parts of the article. Except I think Jane means that they are on the Titanic just like one would expect her to mean it. Just like we've been saying it for awhile now. 3 Link to comment
TeeVee329 April 1, 2015 Share April 1, 2015 Tony goes on to say in the article that they will deal with why he went after Sonny's business and other matters when he gets back from his vacation. To be fair, it says in the article it's only a five-week break. But ugh, at this point, I don't even care why he went after Sonny's business, especially because now we know it's just Ron spackling over the changes he made to the story. Can't we just move on? I hope Pat sticks around in the interim, bonds with Bobbie maybe. 1 Link to comment

Not even for fun purposes, just because he seems to regard a lot of the modern plugged-in audience as an actual antagonist. It comes from insecurity. Trust me, I went to law school with a bunch of overachievers who freak out at getting an A-. He can't ever admit that he's wrong or someone is smarter than he is. His world would crumble. He's lose his identity as the smartest, wittiest guy in the room. He'll put himself in a room full of children -- like half the cast seems to be now -- before he lets that happen. 2 Link to comment

Someone is teaching this kid to act like some pompous little shit who thinks it's a-ok to comment on women's bodies and the "work" they've had done. I don't care if it was just a nose job -- that is a rude, not ok thing to do under any circumstances. Possibly, if she had agreed to give an in-depth, personal interview to an adult - but on the red carpet, and by some little kid who's obviously being egged on by some very irresponsible adults? Nope, nope, nope. Yuck. 12 Link to comment

jsbt April 2, 2015 Share April 2, 2015 (edited) I had a suspicion it was Eckert from the start, but I knew it had to be him when they introduced the Barrett angle and when he mentioned the Outback. This is something Ron wouldn't forget or pass up. They had a fair bit of good setup, it seems a shame to have wasted so much of it. Edited April 2, 2015 by jsbt 8 Link to comment
Tiger April 2, 2015 Share April 2, 2015 I truly don't know what is more disturbing: Tony being delighted that Luke is a seriel killer, or Nicolas Bechtel asking that woman about her breast implants. I'm gonna go with the 10-year old asking a grown woman about her breasts. Seriously, some producer and/or his parent(s) thought this was okay? I would find the question inappropriate if asked by an adult; it's just creepy when asked by a child. The only good thing that may come out of this is that someone either at ABC or with the State of California will start asking questions. 4 Link to comment
ulkis April 2, 2015 Share April 2, 2015 I mocked it, but I think Tony Geary may be joking a little. I think he meant like "now the shit he's done makes sense!" (sorry Geary it doesn't), but I don't think he's delighted just for the serial killer-ness in and of itself 3 Link to comment
jsbt April 2, 2015 Share April 2, 2015 I think he's joking, but I also think it's typical Geary "edginess". He's tried so hard in the last decade-plus to try and make Luke into every other character he never got to play. 8 Link to comment
