He doesn’t write the stories or fire people. Happy that the fans are outraged over the firings, not that Valentini will listen.

I suppose their opinions are the only ones that count.

Rebecca Budig was hired in no small part due to her relationship with former GH and AMC head writer, Jean Passante. Budig received a cushy four year contract and was immediately given a mountain of airtime but she never delivered ratings. Passante quit rather than being fired due to the lousy ratings and Budig was cut loose. It had nothing to do with Matt and everything to do with GH making an expensive hire that didn’t pan out.

Robert Palmer Watkins is a decent actor and a very likable guy but he’s playing a Quartermaine. The Q’s, Spencers, Webbers and Baldwins have been back burnered so the show can focus on the Jeromes, Davis and Corinthos families. I think this is a HUGE mistake but that doesn’t change the fact that playing a Q doesn’t offer job security! Dillon’s romance with Kiki has gotten some play but Dillon has always seemed a little too nice – very much white bread and bad boys do better in soaps.

Add to that, GH just re-hired DeVry as Julian (another mistake, IMO) and that money had to come from somewhere. There is no point in bashing Cohen for this. GH fans should be bashing Frank and Varni for trying to make GH over in their image and hurting the show instead. Frank and Varni are also guilty of catering to their pets, ignoring the show’s history and giving writer’s bonuses for creating new characters when the GH cast is already too large and not utilized properly!

I think the show should get rid of the Davis and Jerome families. Bring back vets and hire based on what the show needs rather than what Frank and Varni want. GH got it right in the 70’s and 80’s – time to roll back the clock!
