I don't think Larua should go to Chechya because her son is not even there!

[@vjones4769]

So hear me out…. Both Trina and Joss should move in with Spencer and Esme while grandma is gone.that way when Cam comes back they can be a sextet (plus baby) 👀 🤣

[@lawandahenderson9615]

"Spencer watch " is odd because it puts Spencer in a child's place rather than young-adult . This would be less of an issue if Spencer had his own place. They had to find a babysitter for Spencer🤷‍♀️

U sure nick is even there could be a trap from victor to eliminate everyone 🪤

Anyone else get the impression this writing regime has no clue how to write soap families. They’re attempts to rebuild the Quartermaine’s have been awful, outside of brining Tracy back….And the Cassadine’s are a shell of what they used to be. Their efforts to rebuild them have been a mixed bag, but have included Nikolas faking his death and then being in coma….bringing back and then killing Victor. This would’ve been a great time to incorporate some of the Davis girls in and let them explore their Cassadine side….but no, let’s have Nikolas (supposedly) knock up his son’s teenage ex girlfriend. That was good story to them…these writers 🫤 Also, without feeling like I’m beating a dead horse, this living situation was already trash and it’s about to get worse. When fan’s criticize this shows ability to tell a love story, this is what we’re talking about. What we’ve been begging for is moments of lightness, some romance, adventure, etc. Its not hard. But instead you’re making arguably your most popular couple go through hell just to be together. Their bond doesn’t need to be forged through pain and trauma. So get your shit together. Ship esme out their story and don’t have them on prop duty all summer…

I totally agree with everything you said!!; They have so many missed opportunities when it comes to all the family dynamics.

The whole issue with FV regime and I had said this so many times, is that FV does not like to write for characters he didn't create. This includes reintroducing characters throught recast or SORAS. That's why 95% of the cast is full of newbies, all created since FV became showrunner. For example, Spencer and Valentin were already "introduced" on the show earlier but until FV became showrunner and hired NC and JPS, they were more peripheral characters. FV turned the characters into who he wanted them to be, which is why they are always front and center (them being great actors helps but mark my words if FV didn't have a hand in making them who we see them as they wouldn't be on). Now vets like MB, GF, LW who have been on the show for so long have pull with the network. So they have control over their stories which is why Sonny, Carly, Laura are front and center. I will go even so far to say that all stories revolve around one of these three characters. Don't get me wrong, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. GF is the reason they brought Nikolas back after TC left and the reason why they didn't kill him off entirely after MC got let go. She loves the character of Nikolas. If not for her I feel the Cassadine's would have faded into the background. Speaking of Cassadines, I too, don't like what has been done with them. There are currenly 12 living Cassadines in Port Charles (it would have been 13 if Victor had lived). 12! When they were reintroduced in the 90s and when I first got into the show there were only 2 (and a half-dead Helena). Its been 27 years since then and every core family of Port Charles are related to the Cassadines by blood. They went to near extinction numbers to thriving. That's impressive. Yet, none of them act like their family and you wouldn't even know it if they didn't throw a line in there or a scene reminding us they are related.

@@hordeofswords I don’t always look at the behind the scenes stuff, but I’ve heard the same about Frank. The problem is, he hasn’t had too many “hit characters” created under his regime…I started back in the day and love Sonny. But them making him and the mob the center of the show long term has been a mistake….the only think they’ve gotten right lately was refocusing some stories on vets. We need more Anna, Lucy, Scotty, etc Sure there’s plenty of Cassadine’s but how many on canvas are proud to be in the family? Valentine and Spencer? And I get that Laura has every reason to not like the Cassadine’s, but Nikolas, charlotte and Spencer are all Cassadine’s too…I wish one of them would call her out on that. Anyways, sure we have Cassadine’s but like you said, they don’t act like family…I got so excited for Sam and Spencer to work together to find Esme’s nanny, only for gh to act like those scenes didn’t happen. This whole show needs an overhaul.

@@nfgc86 FV hasn't had a single success with an original charachter he has created. None of them are particularly memorable or dynamic. When you look at characters like Sonny, Carly, Nikolas (how they were, not necessarily how they are now) , Elizabeth, Epiphany, hell even Spinelli, those were amazing additions. Who has FV introduced since his arrival? Willow? Sasha? Finn? Austin? None of those characters are remotely interesting. And they know it. Which is why they are all being shoehorned into legacy families and placed with legacy characters. The only mild success he has had is with characters like Spencer and Valentin, but those have more to do with their performers than anything. Say what you will about Guza. Yes, his story was very mob-centric, dark and sometimes overly violent -- but it was amazing television. Other showrunners have tried to recreate that by keeping Sonny the center of the show but it hasn't worked. Yeah, I got into the show when Nikolas came on, so I am and always will be Team Cassadine. I have mixed feelings about Laura, personally, because I can't forget how horrible she was to Nikolas. The thing about her is that while I don't doubt she loves her son and her grandchildren, part of her resents them, because they are Cassadine's. I feel like at some point she resigned herself to the fact that she is blood bound to the Cassadine's for the rest of her life and has done to make the best of that. However, there are moments when her anger and resentment come through and she takes it out on them. She is so quick to condemn Nikolas, condemn Spencer, which granted they did some really bad things but her reaction is sometimes a little extreme compared to what was done. If there were competant writers at the helm they would explore the generational trauma that exist between Laura, Nikolas and Spencer. There is just so much potential and under competant hands, it could totally thrive.
