My biggest problem w/ GH is that the writing is so lazy the actors are uninspired. You can see it on their faces. All the acting styles have become similar. You can swap Maurice and Steve playing Sonny and Jason, and still get the same impact.
What really saddens me is that Guza and team don't hear the fans. With Karpov on the scene...open wide...another mob story is being shoved down our throat. An old writers addage is to write what you know. Bob Guza does not know the mob. His mob stories have been a mess from the getgo. It is now just recycling tired mess after mess.

What REALLY bothers me is the useless killing of core/legacy characters. Yes, people die. Yes people are murdered. That's life. But, the killing of Alan & Emily to further advance mob-related story was just a waste.

But, there are way to rectify this: the writers just have to look in the past at the characters, and the answer is there!

If it wasn't for Laura Wright, I wouln't even TIVO GH. I can watch a whole week in about 15 minutes.

Cheers all!

My biggest problem with GH is Kate. Can't a bullet hit her. I can't stand Her. I want Carly back with Sonny and Kate to be in the line of fire for someones bullet and jax to fo away. He keeps picking Kate over Carly and he doesn't think she will react

I had a problem with the whole Kate thing as soon as it started, but gave it a chance. She is just too "driven" to care about anyone except herself.

In Port Charles everyone knows about it. If the people in the mob had tried to keep it under wraps it might have been a little more believable and interesting. Port Charles is bizarro world anyway. The mob is supposed to be the heros and the cops are supposed to be either dumb or corrupt.

i agree as well - i love carly and jax and don't want to see her back with sonny, but kate is getting annoying. i'm surprised that sonny hasn't put her in her place yet for the way she's been butting into his business. the way she treated jason the other day was unbelievable and sonny said nothing - who does she think she is!?

GH the problem-they don't know what to do with female characters Kate-First she was an INDEPENDANT BUSINESS WOMAN and now she is more worried about keeping Sonny "out of the business" then she is about the wedding that will commit him to her (although commitment and sonny don't seem to work) and trying to cause trouble between Jax and Carly (just a thought..if my current fiance's ex is already happily married...then why would I try to cause trouble) She can't make up her mind Business or Love. If she wants both, maybe she find a new business partner2. Sam- she hasn't changed much..and I think Lucky is good for her. 3 Alexis- Protecter...always trying to protect her kids from mobsters...shouldn't have had sex with one or his brother...are my thoughts. 4. Lulu-the most leveled headed person, despite her recent hallucinations5. Robin-Strongminded woman who wants to take on the world but can't do it by herself. 6. Liz-one of the most level headed charaters on the show, however can make wrong choices and she accepts that.7. Maxie-lost soul who doesn't know how to handle love or men ( but who does)

Gh is bad when the only funny and good story is Max pretending to be a mob boss for his father. Max has never had this much action the whole time he's been on the show. I hate Sonny right now he has become such a jerk. I liked him and Carly together. Kate is such a BIT**. She gabe Carly such a hard time about Carly taking her children away from Sonny after Michael was shot when all along she knew Sonny had another child with someone else. And who is she to tell Olivia what to do with her child. As Kate is lying in a hospital bed after being shot because of Sonny she is telling olivia how great sonny is as a father. Hello His first unborn child killed in a car bomb, Michael shot in the head, all 3 of his children were kidknapped by his enemy and Morgan was almost not born because Sonny shot Carly in the head as she gave birth. Yeah Great Father. Now Jax! He is an A**. He knew his wife hated Kate so what did he do, He went into business with her and told Carly we are through if you don't like it. Carly is strong she should have kicked him to the curb.Bring back the old GH. Love in the afternoon. Stop witj the mob. Let Monica know she has a grandson, Let there be romance. Let know follow his heart to Carley. Get LuLu out of the looney bin, bring life back the the Quartermanes. Get rid Of Anthony, Claudia, Kopov and don't forget Kate and let the love through

I loved that Jax went into business with Kate even though Carly hates her. It was one of the few times that he has stood up to Carly and not let her make all of the rules - Carly is hypocritical (and I like Carly, but it's true) and I loved seeing Jax not cave in.

I completely agree. Plus I don't think that Georgie should have been killed off. The writing definitely needs to improve.
