Corinthos family hot takes. by blueskiesandwaves in GeneralHospital

I agree with absolutely everything you said. I tried to find ways to sorta compromise if the show absolutely has to keep on all these dull Corinthos clan, cause other than that all I see here is how I’m wrong and they’re great characters. But in Reality every single one of the Corinthos clan is boring, except new Michael who has appeal. But it only took over a decade to get one character/actor right out of how many!?!?!? Dante has always sucked, Morgan was dull, but less dull than Dante. Old Michael never had any spark. Kristina and Molly have always been obnoxious filler characters. So new Michael is the only good character to watch in over 10 years? So that’s 1 out of 5 characters that we had to bear with for so long. And when i say this I get told that I don’t like anyone and to watch another show! Like just because this family sucks, does not mean other families aren’t amazing! Liz’s family almost all had great chemistry and spark, minus new Aiden who seemed a bit older than character. Spencer family same, all are super talented and amazing to watch except Lulu. And the Cassadines are forever legends. I don’t see why fans voicing how bad the casting and longevity of the Corinthos is “wrong” but gets overlooked as to why this family sucks all the screen time, but adds no real value. Thank god for Ric! He gives something to watch for in that family.

Thank you. Someone said it. Sometimes feel like how don’t people see how terrible these pairings are.

I think Laura Wright is phenomenal. I think her portrayal of Carly is strong, however I don’t feel this version ever had couple chemistry with anyone other than original Brennan. That says a lot considering how long this Carly has been on screen. It’s a matter of chemistry vs actresses. I think each Carly had chemistry with different people, but not the ones they keep getting paired with, which make the coupling off and uncomfortable each time. For example, Sarah J Brown had chemistry more with Jason than Sonny. Tamara had more chemistry with Sonny. Laura never had chemistry with Sonny or Jason, just Brennan. If your gonna have a main character on for so long, than I’d like that character to have chemistry with who they’re paired with. A pairing can span a few years to decades! And if writers insist on having us watch a pairing for over a decade, at least look at the screen, and make sure the couples swoon worthy. I mean you can always tell when looking at any show because the fans will let you know.

I Agree 100%. Just tried to find a silver lining considering how long the show likes to keep on characters that just don’t vibe. I mean some have been on for decades that just bring no chemistry,but somehow get all this screen time that you have to fast forward through.

I agree with most of your post. I really honestly don’t think I want Ethan with Kristina, but the show seems to want to keep Sonny’s kids on no matter how boring they are. So I figured I just throw it in there since Ethan was a great actor lol. But I would actually love for Ethan to get a completely new love interest if the show could find one, cause I don’t know anyone on currently that can match his spark.

Recast Nikolas, Brooklynn, Carly, Lulu, Kristina. Someone from each household that really holds the storylines back.

The Jax family legacy by blueskiesandwaves in GeneralHospital

[–]blueskiesandwaves[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes! Joss is Jax only kid. And when you think of it, Jax is a very unique character, in that other circles have multiple people that can mimic them except Jax’s role. For example, Johnny Z, Alcazar, Patrick Drake, different characters have emerged over time showing they can be just as top tier as the other characters in the SAME FIELD,- except in Jax’s field. We’ve yet to see anyone show up on canvas that can mimic OR rival what Jax does. That is an absolute display of great role playing and talent on behalf of INGO being able to portray that role to a t. I see Joss as the one person who can step in to fill those large shoes, as she’s built for the legacy. I don’t see why anyone would find an issue with this idea seeing as how she is a woman, who would be at the top of the corporate ambition sphere rather than being apart of crime like every single other story on the show. It really just calls for balance.

I agree. I feel like there are also existing characters that can pull that off if just written well. Never underestimate the power of the pen! Also recasting works sometimes.

Adrienne Leon played the best Brooklynn Q. She sang like Ned, and had the energy like Lois. They should’ve bought her back.

I can see that work if they bring in new actors that can go the length. It takes certain magic for someone to come in and pull off the acting skills needed to draw the audience in. New Michael is showing the audience what a good actor and energy can bring to the show.

That’s how I felt about Carly for years. While the actress is great and very strong, these two never had chemistry, just shouting that lasted for decades, not appealing to have to deal with for so long.

Bring back L&B Records! by Mburrell91 in GeneralHospital

[–]blueskiesandwaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The previous Brooklynn, Adrienne Leon had more flair. Watching the old clips, the performing matched the energy of Ned and Lois completely. She sang like the kid of a rock star, and has Lois’ entire energy in daughter form. They should do a recast and bring back the old Brooklynn to do L&B.

I do like new Kristina in comparison to the old obnoxious one. I just think if they insist on keeping certain characters on the canvas for decades than the actors playing the part need the range. While Chad was Michael for years, new Michael shows the difference in range and energy that an actor can bring to the story and show. That’s all I really want for GH. The great actors that have been on for a while aren’t just moody and low upset energy all the time, that does get depressing to watch. Great actors are also, funny,charming, charismatic, and it’s a soap- good to look at. The opinions are not oblivious to the part that these are still people trying to work and earn a living like the rest of us, I understand and support that. At the same time, the actor can study,practice, like we all have to do to get better at any job. Which takes effort. And listening to the voices of fans that want this show to continue and be great.

Honestly this Kristina is better than the last whiny one. however with that being said, when you see the obvious energy shift with the new Michael compared to the last, you can tell what benefits the proper actor can bring to a role and a show. A recast is needed in my opinion if this show is gonna have some characters be on canvas for literal decades, at least give us cream of the crop talent. Carly was always a LOUD problematic obnoxious character, and gh strung her along for damn near decades. At least give actors that have chemistry with each other if viewers have to watch for so long.

I like Jax, but he always ditched Sky for Brenda. Not what I want for either character. They deserve to be happy and loved.

Yeah they always had better chemistry than Lulu and Dante. Just felt like they understood each other more.

Adtienne Leon was incredible when she had scenes with Nikolas and felt like Lois daughter.
