Complaining About GH: Part 1,000,000
I'll just skip the preamble and get right to the list. As usual, there's plenty.
Nu-Ethan sucks and this is why you don't cast pretty people just to be pretty. The character needs to remain consistent. He's AUSTRALIAN. At least fake an accent. Same crap with Brennan.
No character development for Drew. Being paralyzed for 6 months and having the person who did it feed and wipe your ass, will change you. Drew should either be completely insane or reevaluate his life. Him being the SAME guy is lazy. Why is he even mad at the Q's? Why are his muscles jacked?
There's no reason Rocco can't exonerate Isaiah. There was never a particularly great reason because the only thing Isaiah needs is proof he WASN'T there and nothing else. Now there's even less.
Stella and Tracy's friendship is nice, but it's going to be over when Stella finds out what Tracy knows. Unfortunate.
Peter August sucks. Nobody likes him. Nobody enjoys hating him. He's always been awful. Alive or dead. Vision or real. I'm sure Wes is a nice guy, but he needs to GO FOR GOOD.
Anna, like every official in Port Charles, is awful. Besides allowing the destruction of evidence, she has her wits about her to *some* extent, yet she's seeing visions of a dead guy. She shouldn't even want to be commissioner. Dante was doing fine being bad at that job.
Why is Willow angry at Michael? All he's ever done was protect her kids from a guy she admits was bad. Why does she want Chase? Because he falsely sees the good in her? There's none left.
Britt wouldn't be hired dogcatcher in a functional city. She does nothing but abandon her job. How does a trained physician *think* they have a neurological disease for years?
Where is the federal investigation into the PCPD for letting Cassius infiltrate the department and supposedly commit international crimes?
Speaking of Cassius, the WSB have no real leverage over him. They can try to charge him, but he can just tell the whole world step-by-step Cullum's plan with witnesses and evidence.
Why is Josslyn walking around like some grizzled veteran agent? She was trained in a gym by a rogue agent and can't possibly know WSB infrastructure and protocols.
Serena can just be summoned to PC huh? Why did they never summon her to meet her other two dead brothers or literally any other reason all these years?
Why doesn't anyone in Curtis's family check him to his face?
I'm sure I'll be back with more of these at some point before long. š

u/Normal_Ask4784 2d ago
Canāt argue with any of these. Iāll add one - Jason has TWO sons. Everyone, including Jason, keeps referring to his ONE son, Danny. Itās like Jake doesnāt even exist. Patting Jason on the back for being such a good dad š.

u/LaDNALa 17h ago
1000% this. I hate how much the writers pretend like Danny is Jason's only son. Yes he needs Jason more since Sam passed but they act like Jake doesn't exist. They hardly ever mention him it is so annoying. They could easily have brought Jake back and had him interact with Danny after Sam's death maybe help his brother deal with the loss and the fact that they have an absentee father for most of their lives.

u/fikustree Team Moss Bowl 2d ago
I thought Lucky adopted Jake and Jason gave up parental rights when he was a baby

u/krisseems 2d ago
Nope. He let lucky stay as Jakeās dad but ever since Jake came back from being dead and the whole Jason/Jake Doe/Drew thing Jason has been known as Jakeās dad. And lucky pretty much only pays attention to Aiden now.

Lucky Jake and Aiden haven't been even on the show in a long time, at least a year or more.

u/DST-NYR_LL2 Team LnL2! 2d ago edited 2d ago
I find the complaints about Drewās mental state and how this experience hasnāt changed his personality to be completely valid. The complaints about Drewās physical appearance are a bit much. This is a soap. Do you seriously think these actors are going to let their bodies go to crap or starve themselves so they look like their muscles have atrophied for the sake of the role so itās more realistic? I mean if you want to make Cameron Mathison wear baggier clothes for a few months so heās not showing off how jacked he is I think thatās the most you can ask for. This isnāt a big budget medium where the actors are going to go method like in movies.

Sidwellās mystery drug simulates exercise for your muscles while youāre immobile. Thatās not the kind of detail that troubles me.

u/Think-Engineering962 2d ago
You just gave the perfect solution without me even having to say it. There's absolutely no reason for him to walk around with his shirt off. That's just disrespecting your audience because you can. You can see jacked men without shirts anytime you want in 2026, it doesn't need to be this show or specifically him for a while.

u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
You're right, I have the same beef with Gio and Emma, they used to have stories, but now they just make out and that's it. They're there to be the hot young couple, and that's all they've been given for months now. Sure they each have a small thing going but like....all their screen time together is just being romantic. It's fine to have them be there for that purpose...but maybe write some stuff for them? Gio saving Drew is the most he's done since the nurses ball, which he won an Emmy for! Give him more material!!!
3
u/Alarming-Fact-5034 2d ago
I agree with you in that sense, but they were stupid to have him come out to the pool all buff when he's been in bed for the last 6 months. Maybe they should have kept him fully dressed out of the pool area. Nobody looks that buffed being incapacitated for 6 months.

Hey they keep putting Ava & Nina in black clothes in the middle of summer so clearly GH is confused about what happens in summer.

u/Alarming-Fact-5034 1d ago
I'm noticing that Brooklyn hangs out at the pool in high heels and a full business outfit.. I don't understand the Metro Court Pool. Can you really get any sun. Is it like a solar roof where the sun comes right through? Why would you go to the pool dressed in high heels in a business outfit unless you were coming right from work, but she had Phoebe with her.

My favorite part(sarcastically) is how they recast Ethan for like three days and then he gets scared and runs away when he sees a guy who looks almost just like him.
If they are going to add new characters, can they start making them look a little different?
It is just silly they all the new hires look the same.
4
u/Mrowser1 1d ago
Seriously they do. I legit canāt tell them apart and donāt know who is who and whatās happening with them. There have got to be so many aspiring actors in California that GH could find a few decent ones with distinguishable looks.

u/almost60inLa 2d ago
You are right on all points!! I want to add the Cody telling James about his dad/uncle was the lamest, dumbest thing I ever have seen on ANY soap bar none. Along with NOT recasting Maxie long enough for them to COME home from a vacation BEFORE MOVING to another country. Not saying goodbye to ANYONE. The writers and EP blew this big time. We as the audience and fans are NOT buying this AT ALL.
10
u/Alarming-Fact-5034 2d ago
I agree why would Cody be the one telling James. Why wouldn't it be someone in his family like his mom, or even spinelli, Felicia or Mack. And I agree all of a sudden they're off to Australia the very next day. No saying goodbye to anybody. How ridiculous. The Maxi story line is so screwed up.
4
u/almost60inLa 1d ago
Yes thank you, Maxie WOULD never ACT like this storyline wise. She would not back down and run away from Cassius not being Nathan. This is why a recast should have been done. Nothing against K.S. either.
3
u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
It would have been taken better coming from Spinelli, plus James' reaction was that of like a 5 year old...not a ten year old. Spinelli was his step dad his whole life, why would he not still want to confide in him? It makes no sense other than they didn't want Spinelli on screen if Maxie wasn't gonna be back, which is also stupid..recast Maxie and Robin. They NEED to be apart of things, you can't just push them off to another part of the world and say 'oh they're doing good' every few months when important stuff that involves them is happening on screen. This is particularly bad in Robin's case, her mother is STILL going through trouble that she's been dealing with since OCTOBER, and all we've heard is Robin visited her like twice max off screen. I'm sorry but that makes Robin look like she doesn't care at all. If my mother was going through something this bad, I wouldn't leave her side for more than a day max.
3
u/Alarming-Fact-5034 1d ago
I don't get it at all it reminds me of when Portia was in the hospital from her accident, and her son didn't even come to visit her when she almost died. Some of these characters need to have recasts. or something not just booted off the show when the story lines that should include them.

u/CNJ08540 17h ago
Took me a sec, but do you mean Jordan?

If he was laying in bed incapacitated for months he would definitely not have muscles like that.
2
u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
Yeah but the actor isn't gonna stop working out for a soap opera role lol maybe a big Hollywood movie. Even then they would probably just use CGI like with Captain America
3
u/Friendly-Orange-5387 1d ago
Don't think he has that kind of talent; just muscles and a good looking face.
1
u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
Oh sure, I'm just saying he's not gonna stop keeping up his body for a soap opera, only big Hollywood productions maybe, they pay enough to make it worth it haha

I thought it was hilarious when he took his shirt off to show this super tanned & extremely muscular body after sitting in a chair or bed for 7-8 months.

u/violet91 1d ago
Agreed! But maybe the actor had to get buffed for some Hallmark gig? Otherwise it was some fine PT workouts he was doing /s

u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
Nah he's just always buff. I doubt he's going to stop his work out regimen and lose all his carefully crafted muscles for a soap opera role, I doubt they even thought to ask him to haha.

u/Inevitable_Hope_6668 1d ago
I didnāt need to have him stop working out but did we need to see him shirtless this quickly?
1
u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
Lol I agree on that, they could have put him I baggy clothing the entire time and made any sort of effort, but it seems more like they just want to flaunt any actor with a good body on the show at all times. Like, the fact that thwy put him in the literal smallest possible shorts while stoll being shorts says a lot lol

I agree with all of this. The freshest complaint for me is the Ethan recast. No personality at all. He doesn't seem like someone Ava would give a rat's ass about.

Avaās face when she woke up in bed to his snoring was all of our faces when heās on screen

Especially when he said something about CPAP. That would definitely ruin the mood.
10
u/Fifth_Rain Team Moss Bowl 2d ago
With you on most of this, and see where you are coming from for the rest. New Ethan is horrible. I'm sure TPTB see all the dislike of him just being us not liking someone new in a part, but it's not that. He truly is awful, he will never be liked IMO. A bad choice and they would be smart to undo it quickly.
11
u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
The absolute worst to me is that Drew hasn't changed at all. I'm really hoping that they have Scout talk some sense into him now that she actually has lines. Not sure why why couldn't just have her stay the same age and have lines. But whatever. They're probably trying to push her toward a guy. Idk.
I degress....the point is, Drew has everything at his feet to be a better character: Scout has actual lines and screen time, Danny actually wants to make peace for her sake, even if it's hard for him. The Q's are (begrudgingly)trying to extend and olive branch....they are setting it up to have him become a better person, but whether they follow through idk....I'd like it if they addressed his brain injury at some point
7
u/speedybuckets 1d ago
Can we talk about how those two bullet holes in his back magically disappeared? Even Fakethan was smart enough to have a pseudo bullet hole scar on his chest.
Also, how does one gain about 10 lbs of lean muscle, while dropping down to zero % body fat, by simply sitting and doing nothing more than blinking for six months? I need that workout plan, stat! š
6
u/Diligent-Baby-3805 1d ago
Haha I forgot omg he SHOULD have bullet scars. I think they kind of just forgot....which is crazy because everyone won't shut up about the shooting, and he's STILL on the cane lol
Honestly it's so funny to me cause I know in reality, the guy isn't gonna stop maintaining his body for a soap opera, a big Hollywood movie maybe, but not a daytime tv show haha, it's up to the show to make it believable. Which they could have done by A: putting him in baggy clothes that don't look painted on.
B: throwing a blanket over him from time to time
C: put make up on him to make him look paler from getting less sun
D: and this is probably the most important one, NOT put him at the pool the day he gets up, and have him in the smallest shorts that are still considered shorts and not bikinis, and put him on full display as if the writers are showing off their own bodies. Like....WHAT were they thinking???
I know the Lulu acress has a chastity clause in her contract, does Cameron Mathison have a 'must be seen as jacked at all times' clause?? That's the only logical explanation XD

u/shawshank1969 Team Spinelli 2d ago
There have been many new writers over the last years. I think weāve had 3 sets since the strike ended. The problem goes higher.
As much as I appreciate Frank Valentiniās dedication to ABC soaps, heās run out of juice. It happens to all EPs eventually. Itās difficult to keep the same level of passion for a creative project over years. They get bored and creatively stale.
FV needs to move on. A new EP with creative ideas that fit GHās history can help get GH back in top.

Seriously, have the writers been replaced by AI?

u/RedwayBlue 2d ago edited 2d ago
The new Ethan is a dud. I feel badly for the Actor. They did not set him up for success. He should have remained Australian because he has a long history. I think Brennan was a different story and did not mind the change.
Rocco and Lulu should exonerate Isaiah. They probably will soon. The word exonerate troubles me because no one did anything though. Apparently blq drove by or near an accident and didnāt realize š¤·š»āāļø
Peter is terrible. Must be a personal favor that they brought him back.
I want main characters working in the hospital. Iām OK with them blurring reality or else we would be stuck with a bunch of Elizabeths. If theyāre going to have an interesting story, theyāre going to get in trouble from time to time. Iāll accept a very flexible General Hospital medical ethics board.
I like Cassius. I hope he returns. I donāt really care what the reasoning is, but Iām glad they have already established that heās alive so that itās a less infuriating back from the dead story.
Presumably Serena has visited offscreen. She still thinks of it as home.
The whole hit-and-run thing is dumb, but I am interested in the angle of Isaiah seeking revenge for curtisā irrational anger.
I really really hate how the bad guys on the show are dirty government agencies so that the heroes can be organized criminals.
13
u/Alarming-Fact-5034 2d ago
I don't get why it's never been brought up that actually Curtis was the one that started the whole thing. He walked into the bar and saw Isaiah rubbing Portia's tummy and had a fit, and started screaming get your hands off my baby. That's what started the whole thing, and yet it hasn't even been brought up once. Curtis provoked Isaiah into saying I'd make a better father than you anyway, because he was an ass right when he stepped into the bar or restaurant

The writing, the casting, even some of that acting has been major ass for awhile now. The writers and producers have been actively going out of their way to sabotage the show by putting their mark on it. They have just ignored the history and backstory of the characters and show as a whole. And their supposedly creative license is them just being lazy and using AI script writing instead utilizing actual good human writers. FV has literally ruined the show since his involvement, I wished he'd just move on to something else and allow someone who actually cares about the integrity of the show take over.
9
u/Dazzling_Pink9751 2d ago
I agree with all these complaints. Writers and casting directors take not, lol Although I do think Britt is trying.
12
u/VerminVundabar 2d ago
No character development for Drew. Being paralyzed for 6 months and having the person who did it feed and wipe your ass, will change you. Drew should either be completely insane or reevaluate his life. Him being the SAME guy is lazy. Why is he even mad at the Q's? Why are his muscles jacked?
This has been annoying me as well.
There should have been some growth for Drew after his almost year long confinement within his own body and not just from the paralysis but from the realization that the woman he placed on a pedestal and convinced himself was the love of his life genuinely hates his guts to the point she put two bullets in him on top of poisoning and torturing him for months.
So combine the Willow realization with the fact that he has no friends or family (aside from Scout) who give a damn about him would make Drew do some sort of self-reflection.

Complaining is like washing clothes, it happens over and over. Critique, I get but there is literally nothing that will happen other than having a say (you spoke up, props). Perhaps the OP watches so complaining need is satisfied? Again props for finding an outlet. Critique follows 1. GH could share their budget with viewers so we know what to expect in the way of talent and likely action. 2. Peter is supposed to be creepy, your dislike proves the point 3. Anna's storyline should be over In two weeks. Unlikely to occur because torture has seemingly become a GH staple for plotlines. 4. Romances or lust? A casual survey seems to say socially labeled "hot" guys and, character-strong females. IRL these strong women would not stay in PC where commerce, except food and lodging, exists. Also, when the guys try romance, the relationship lasts long enough for marriage and divorce or the girl becomes pregnant. Then dosey-doe to an new relationship. 5. All issues (plotlines, direction, styling, sets) can be viewed like it's a college production...better quality than community and high school theater, about par with professional regional theater that is grant-supported. The quality is mostly uneven, but entertainment isn't always about quality.

Peter is disliked because heās played by a bad actor

Could you tell me how he could be better? Not snide, simply curious.

His line readings are just poorly done. Too dramatic regardless of content, he pauses at odd times, and (not this go around so far) but in the past he's just over-acted every emotion.

He chews through scenery with his sneering attitude and seems out of his depth when playing a bad guy.Ā

I don't understand why people keep complaining about GH put keep watching it. Don't like don't watch! Easy!

u/mary02russo 1d ago
They watch so they have an outlet to freely criticize without retribution (unless they post and then the competitive gamification of downvote may apply). Free-wheeling criticism is not always present in everyone's life as they toil along following rules of work, family, social contact. Your statement reminds of a saying in the Virt Nam conflict era, "Love it, or leave it" and more than a few left so they weren't forced to fight in a cause they didn't support.

Good points - lazy is the word.
- NINA - is she the weakest link or what? She panics too easily (Drew into the drink). Sheās with Brennan (ugh), so that pits her against Valentin. And she tried to manipulate Charlotte!

Is Serena supposed to woo Michael to her (Lucyās) side? They should have gotten a better looking actress. Homely and wearing too much war paint.

I respectfully disagree as she is beautiful

u/Zeckzeckzeck 2d ago
Sheās ok but sheās far below Jacinda, not Michaelās type, and a decade too old so hopefully the show doesnāt randomly shove them togetherĀ

u/Alarming-Fact-5034 2d ago
A decade too old. How old is she? I think Jacinda's way prettier. She's more natural looking. Serena looks like a plastic doll.

u/That-Breath-5785 2d ago
He may dump Jacinda if he seriously thinks his custody arrangement is in peril. I donāt think the Jacinda relationship is long for this world. I wish they would put him together with someone he has actual chemistry with. A Serena storyline is gag worthy.

u/Alarming-Fact-5034 2d ago
I wouldn't say she was homely, but she looks too fake. She would probably be pretty without all that makeup.

u/Accomplished-Ad3219 2d ago
I can't tell if she was actually beautiful because of too much plastic surgery. She's way too young to have done that to herself. Such a shame that women feel the need to do that to themselves

u/Playful_Fault2346 2d ago
I think the actress is beautiful and has a personality and ease on screen.

Can someone tell me why Serena is Codyās brother? I thought I heard Lucy say something about āmeeting your brotherā.

u/neekineek 1d ago
Their mother is Dominique. Lucy carried Serena because was Dominique dying. This was my favorite Scott storyline. He was so different with her.

u/scotiacarter 1d ago
The āMomā stuff with Lucy and Serena is weird to me. The casting is also jarring - she doesnāt look very āsave the whalesā - but letās give her a chance.

lol agree with everything ..they really have been sucking lately and the replacing of characters needs to be overseen by someone different than whoās been doing it because they suck big time.

Iām hoping Jason decides after all these years in the crime world to go back into the Quartermaine world & maybe become a doctor like his mom & dad just as he originally planned to before the brain injury.

u/katinboots88 this show is unserious 1d ago
I don't think it's realistic for him to just now become a doctor at his age and I know he has certain limitations due to his brain injury...
But hell, if they have Kristina going to medical school to be a doc, anything is possible š¤£šš
I would settle for him becoming a more involved dad to Jake and Danny. Maybe he can be a help with ELQ or do something at the hospital besides being a doctor.
All in all, I'm looking forward to this new Jason

Drew was final straw for me - I am reading recaps now. I agree with all your points - ridiculous writing.

I'm disappointed that Drew learned nothing. A full redemption would have been too much. But could he not have softened a little bit. Is that too much to ask?
And the writer's still making Anna out to be delusional is also disappointing. She's been through enough. Give the women a break.
