LeftPhalange April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 In fairness, is there a single aspect of their personal life or public presence that is right now? I know what BC has been up to on twitter but what did KT do? Link to comment
UYI April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 It's okay, I've got this, ulkis. :) I know what BC has been up to on twitter but what did KT do? She tweeted that she wasn't happy at all, after Bryan lost. She didn't say why, of course, but it's obvious that's what she meant. 1 Link to comment
UYI April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 Oh God, is she STILL bitching about that? Let. It. GO. Still totally going to check her tweets, though. 2 Link to comment

tvgoddess April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 That kind of reminds me of when Georgia Tech beat Georgia back in 2007, I think. They had rings made up to say State Champs, since they hadn't won in like 10 years. Any UGA fan thought it was absolutely pathetic, since the only rings you get are for conference championships or national championships. And this is even worse since BC didn't actually win anything. I just...no. 2 Link to comment

Sake614 April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 So on today's View, Geary said he was reluctantly dragged down the path of being a romantic hero. Why does this man continue to trash the story that got him where he is today? I mean really, he could have left at any time if he didn't want to play the character as written. Instead he played it and played it WELL for many years. So shut up already. It's enough to simply say that you've always wanted to explore Luke's dark side and are grateful to Frank and Ron for giving you that opportunity. Less is more Tony. 15 Link to comment
ulkis April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 SMH. I can't with him. At all. I knooooooooooow. I'm sure Tony is an intelligent and nice guy overall but when it comes to the show/this character . . . buddy, please take the contract that lets you earn a shit ton of money for six months (if even that) and then lets you live in Amsterdam the other six months of the year, cry into it over the hardship of playing Luke as a romantic hero, and shut the fuck up. 10 Link to comment
SlovakPrincess April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 Oh good grief. Look, I can see in the 1981 and 1982 episodes that the Luke worship got to be a bit much - not nearly as bad as the Jason worshipping and Sonny propping that hit the show later ... but, yeah, I can kind of see that. BUT. In '83 Luke went back to being kind of a jerk and then he got Laura back and then he left. And that early in his career, why would he be frustrated that the show turned him into a hero? -- that's why he kept his job for so long!! And through the 90s and 2000s he got increasingly dark. He hasn't been a romantic hero for eons. He hasn't even been the quirky anti-hero that made Luke popular. I don't even know what the hell TG is talking about at this point. Rape, working for the mob, cheating, visiting prostitutes, drinking and generally being a jackass, running over his grandson ... that wasn't enough? We had to be subjected to an evil split personality for Luke? Please. 10 Link to comment

For all the "blaming of the actors" happening on the interwebs, can't we begin with him? If anyone has an actual HOLD on this show and the creative aspects of it, it's him. 5 Link to comment
dubbel zout April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 It really is unseemly that he's so set on trashing Luke's past. This character has given him roughly 30 years of employment. If he's really so unhappy about it all, he needs to tell Frank and Ron he's ready to leave for good. The show will survive, or if it doesn't, it won't be because Luke and TG aren't around. 10 Link to comment
Francie April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 OMG did she/himself make a fake Emmy? LMAO! Gahh!!!!! I say that because it looks like fake Oscar, not a fake emmy. Emmys are golden girls with wings.

SlovakPrincess April 27, 2015 Share April 27, 2015 All I can think is that he's bought into this ridiculous current mindset that only dark, unpleasant or villainous characters are interesting. Completely forgetting that what made Luke interesting and unique was nothing at all like that (he started out bad and he hated authority and convention, but he did fall in real love with Laura and respected Robert and respected doctors and ultimately gave a damn about people). 10 Link to comment

He hasn't even been the quirky anti-hero that made Luke popular. Smiling at the fact that the son of your wife might be dead, all because you can't stand the idea that she bore him, is about as dark as one can get. And that was 1996. I don't even know what the hell TG is talking about at this point. Rape, working for the mob, cheating, visiting prostitutes, drinking and generally being a jackass, running over his grandson ... that wasn't enough? We had to be subjected to an evil split personality for Luke? Please. It's not a split personality! It's a dark side -- that Luke has no memory of when he's not experiencing it. Totally different. ~Ron 9 Link to comment

And with him, it really comes across as a bit of a Peter Pan complex too. The funny thing is, he's still insistent that Luke is not an alcoholic. So he wants Luke to be dark, but only the "cool" kind of dark. Or Luke is allowed to cheat and steal from Tracy, but Tracy isn't allowed to get one over on him. I do miss Jonathan Jackson right now, he really curbed this shit when he was around. Edited April 27, 2015 by ulkis 7 Link to comment

The video of him at the drive thru is just embarrassing. 1 Link to comment

Running over Jake while hammered? Being so distraught over killing both parents that he had a psychotic split decades later? I am clearly the most uncool person who lived, because none of this is enviable to me. I think he probably meant most of Lex Lukor or whatever he was supposed to be last year, which had those moments that he probably thought were cool and hilarious, like the mob stuff, making a pass at and trying to sexually assault Kiki, etc. And with him, it really comes across as a bit of a Peter Pan complex too. The funny thing is, he's still insistent that Luke is not an alcoholic. So he wants Luke to be dark, but only the "cool" kind of dark. Or Luke is allowed to cheat and steal from Tracy, but Tracy isn't allowed to get one over on him. I do miss Jonathan Jackson right now, he really curbed this shit when he was around.

Maybe, but if anything caused him to leave (and I'm not wholly convinced he wasn't always going to leave after his contract was up no matter what) it was probably the total mess they made of the Lucky and Liz relationship. 7 Link to comment
