Quoting limited to 3 levels deep IDK, there is just something really missing.
A good chemistry couple can make me bear bad material, so I don't really attribute their dull appeal to the writing content. People's apathy (to me) seems to be caused more by what they lack aside from any bad writing. Namely, there's nothing there to hold onto to actually make you care in those less than perfect times- sparks, chemistry... nothing's really there for me.

To me they're only getting the grand couple treatment because they inherited it through the appeal that KM and BF generated together and not by actual organic merit. Their status bothers me because it really isn't backed up by anything for it to be deserved. If I was a cast member on the show who was actually generating heat with one of my co-stars, I would be frustrated at the fact that mediocrity gets rewarded over me.
The problem is that there is no one of the the younger group that is capable of that. I think Casey could be but there is no strong actress for him to play off of. SS isn't there, neither is CB. :-/

I like LAd and like Clipp, but they are more "sweet" than anything else.

CS is a strong actor too. FS is too hit and miss for me.
I agree about CM. I think they need to get him off the force and take him back to being darker and then bring on someone good for him. I don't know who that would be though.

At least the ratings went up, but they are sad numbers. Hovering around or under 2 million can't be good. I watch everyday, even though there is not much I'm enjoying. I just dont want to see another soap get canceled. :sadwalk:
I think the show is SO much better now, but it's lacking that special character and/or couple that really keeps me engaged. I love my PaulSon, but their relationship didn't get enough focus before this all blew up at the wedding. I love Chabby too, but their story is just falling flat for me now.

I need a young sexy villain. :blulaugh:

I love chabby and think with Marci their bringing her back to how Jen and jacks daughter should be not the stuck up sex pot cheating Abby that Kate abby was .I also like how Marci and Billy respect each other whereas kate only seemed to respect Rob and not Billy whose character finally made hers interesting jmo though
Perhaps KM not kissing BF's ass was the best thing for him. He was actually focused and his acting was good then. He's a mess now.
I never said she had to kiss Billy's ass but meantion him in interviews at least he was part of the story too but it was always Rob Rob Rob when billy imo is the better actor

Tonja Walker started following Greg Meng on Twitter recently. Is she still employed at GH? (I hope so because Days doesn't need her brand of drama, IMO).

She hasn't been on GH in months.
Hopefully it means nothing. :unsure:

I don't want Lumi to reunite since that will be pointless with AS/Sami leaving before Christmas. I love Lumi and I can't wait for their scenes, but I'd hate for BD to be in limbo until AS returns again.
It can work, because Lucas is shown less...if Days puts more of Lucas, then it will be difficult or in limbo like you said. :smile: ......Regarding CHABBY, there has to be something to give them more layers. Right now, Ben working was working for them.

I really have no desire to see her in Salem after that embarrassing racist drama on her Twitter feed.

Tonja also retweeted that photo Stephen posted a few days ago of him and Tyler. It could be nothing, I just found it interesting because she was never on GH at the same time as Stephen or Tyler.

My son died 2+ years ago from FTD & ALS. He was only 49. It's a horrible disease. Thank you Martha for sharing .

Martha's always been charitable to causes dear to her. I remember she held an auction on her message board to raise funds for the MS Society when she first came on as Belle. It's great to see actors use their platform for good!

Woah. How did I miss this? Can you fill in us who haven't heard about this? I've always enjoyed TW on GH and OLTL.

Stuck up sex pot? I didn't see KM's Abby like that at all. :shrug:

I've never even heard of this before. It definitely needs more attention

If they brought her on at all then I can guarantee they are already writing her exit after all of her bullshit. I hope she's just searching for a job and followed Meng and that it doesn't actually mean anything.

I enjoyed Chabby with KM's version of Abby...they had way more chemistry than MM's version with BF does. IDK, there is just something really missing.
I loved Chabby with KM's version of Abby even though I didn't necessarily love KM's version of Abby. (If that even makes sense). They played great sexual tension. I think the problem with BF and MM in this version of Chabby is that they are trying to play it too "cutesy" and come across as boring. I liked them when MM first came back but the story with Gabi and then reuniting them without any consequences or obstacles hurt them.

She's probably just searching for a job. Tonja still retweets tweets of people wanting her back on GH, and I doubt she would be doing that if she had a role on Days. My guess is that she probably wants to show support for other soaps, hoping someone will hire her. However, after all of the Twitter drama surrounding her, her only chance at getting a role in Soaps again will probably be to return to GH.
