The GH Official Thread Part 2

The new Kate may be young, but she is stepping in to a difficult role. My guess is they intend to take the character in a new direction. I am willing to give her a chance. she is a good actress as far as I can see.

I agree...I liked Megan Ward, and don't know why she isn't there anymore - but the new "Kate" is fine. I also feel like she 'looks' the right age. Like Olivia, to me she looks early 40's.
 
LOVED the Jason/Sam wedding - the rings were a beautiful touch :love:


So happy to see Dante/LuLu actually maybe taking a step forward!

I quit watching GH (out of frustration) for about two weeks during the time Lisa Niles left. Does everyone think she died? Or do they know she's brain dead but being kept alive? Seeing this is ALMOST as frustrating as seeing Franco again. I sooooo wish he would go away for FOREVER!! :eek:
 
Sorry can't recap for you, I ff through it! Have been watching more of it lately but could not stand to watch that wedding.
 
I thouht the wedding was nice. Very simple. Reception was even better. So them. I'm not a Sam and Jason fan but it was really suited for their characters.

But then again I love me some Franco! I enjoy my eye candy! Now the character on the other hand.....:rotfl:

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but is anyone else completely turned off by the "new" Kate Howard? She is making the show pretty much unwatchable. So uptight and pretentious, not like Megan Ward, who, while "uppity", always seemed to be able to make fun of herself. This chick just sucks.

I wouldn't say she's making the show unwatchable at all. No one likes change and I myself would prefer to have Megan back as Kate. I will keep watching as I'm sure she will grow on me.

I am too not a big recast person but I do have to say that the girl that is taking over Kirsten Storms place while she is sick is doing a good job. Just wish Kirsten herself did the BJ sceens... Would have like to have seen her do them since she has played the character for awhile now..

Agree. Kirsten Storms still owns the role, but the temporary actress is doing a really good job. It would have been nice to see Kirsten in the BJ scenes. It was similar to the Elizabeth fill-in doing the OR scene where she gave Sibbohan the wrong medication. Both pivitol scenes for the characters, but being performed by different actresses.

As a previous poster said, I'm not really enjoying the new Kate either, but I'm giving her a chance to grow on me. Megan Ward's Kate had the uppity rudeness factor, but she still showed a softer, more vulnerable side and you could understand where she came from and what she was trying to prove. This Kate hasn't shown the softer side yet. Perhaps the writers will allow her to do that soon.

Really?!?! I can't stand her. Haven't watched GH in awhile and flipped it on and saw the BJ scenes. Wondered where Kristen was...the replacement actresses voice is what does it for me...she sounded whiny and fake. of course, that is jmho.

I too thought the BJ scenes were terrible. I don't know what's wrong with Kirsten (2-3 months!) but the entire impact of remembering BJ was lost w/out her.
 
Lexi Ainsworth is OUT as Kristina. The role will be recast with an older looking actress. Lexi tweeted the news last night on her twitter account. The romance with Ethan is still a go.:rolleyes:
 
I never really took a liking for the this Kristina.. She just annoyed me. If they want to age the character I can't blame them for finding a new actress. This one would have been great if they kept her at 15 or 16. She just didn't do it for me when they aged the character.
