[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 29267, member: 27"] Though I am glad those con-men from Prospect Park did not get away with their schemes, I fear the damage has been done. Too much time has passed for GH to benefit in any way from past ties to AMC and OLTL. "Strike while the iron is hot," they say. Well, the iron has gotten cold! Easton is playing yet another role and it would be ridiculous to bring him back again as John McBain, even though McBain was the best "fit" of any role he's played on GH, and the most successful of the three OLTL crossover characters. Starr and Todd Manning were quite easily forgotten. We don't even have Ron Carlivati any more. He was the best person to write the OLTL crossover plots, since he had better grasp of those characters. The duo writing GH right now would not know how to write the characters. They often don't even know how to write the GH characters we already have. What I see more than anything else, however, is that ABC wants us to forget the mistakes they made with AMC and OLTL, not drag it all back up by resurrecting past characters from shows they tossed aside so cavalierly. While GH would benefit greatly from "expanding their horizons" by including bits of those soaps, I fear a lot of people in charge would just prefer to leave it alone. [/QUOTE]
