I feel that the writers are writing as though Robert and Holly never existed. I say this because Holly's last several appearances has been about Luke. It is as though she never had a life, or even a relationship with Robert. Luke and Holly were together, what...6 months? GMA*B! This is absolutely crazy. It is almost as crazy as lines pertaining to RnH getting cut. Why are they getting cut? It sounds like a whole bunch of rubbish to me. Lines were cut, and other lines were added, according to RC. The line about Holly and Ethan working a con together was added. No one knows why. Well, perhaps TPTB need to get together to figure out who is trying to sabotage RnH's relationship. Certainly Robert would not have an ongoing relationship with a con artist. Should TR ever return, alone, I guess he and Holly won't be together, because she is just a scheming con.
I am with you, Scorpio, for whomever is satisfied with this garbage, rock on!

...it's not been written as if Robert and Holly never existed and it hasn't been rewritten to say they haven't. Let's not create a scenario that doesn't exist. I'm not trying to create a scenario that doesn't exist ... only saying that it feels to me that he's trying to rewrite them as never been a couple since everything he "says" he wrote that says otherwise gets cut in every script they're in. Suspicious is my nature and for me, this happens way too often to believe a word RC says. I'm not asking others to feel that way. I have never tried to deny I don't like the man or the way he writes but for those who do like him/the way he writes then rock on and enjoy it. And if RC is in NY then perhaps TPTB should consider hiring an LA based writer that can oversee his work daily and not leave it up to his minions who apparently in GHs case don't do their job proven by these latest flubs. And too perhaps RC should consider hiring a personal English coach to help him relay to the masses what he wants to say and all of these, "that's not how I meant it" tweets can stop. It's rather apparent by the constant weekly drop in ratings that something's wrong with the show and it all starts with the writing and well he is the Head Writer so whatever is put out is his to claim good or bad. In his case, mostly bad. this is the thing- all this bile you are directing at RC...direct it at FV. RC is the one who wrote Holly telling Dr O that she had been Mrs Robert Scorpio and threatening her for what she did for Robert. He's the one who put R&H together every time they are off-screen. He put Luke and Holly as just friends- who have and want nothing more than friendship. Holly left last time(2013) to go after Dr O because she wanted to make sure she woke up Robert. Why are lines cut? I have news for you. It doesn't matter where the headwriter writes from. They aren't on the floor. It's the director, producers, and the actors (plus crew). and we know ES didn't cut that line. So, that leaves the director and FV. and this is the rub- you don't like RC, but it's the devil you know...

RC may not need to be in LA but he IS the HW who puts this crap out and I don't care how many times he wants to tweet some bogus stuff and tell the world this is what he wrote ... when it's done AFTER the fact, it matters very little. I can type a line and post it and say that it comes from an "original GH script" but that doesn't make it so and no, I don't believe a word he says about "this is what I wrote". I think he would lie through his teeth to keep from taking responsibility for his lack of knowledge of the show and that is my own little opinion. So far in all his time as HW of GH he's done nothing but write crap and that too is my own little opinion but as I've said all along, for those few who like him and the things he writes ... enjoy it.
As for Frank, I have never liked him either but he doesn't write for the show he just stands around and takes credit for anything good that might be said about the show, all the vets brought in to trash, and any other pat on the back he can think of, again my own little opinion. Both are useless and IMOLO both need to be fired and a new EP/HW need to be found, ones that actually want to see the show succeed cause that ain't them ... not by a long shot.
And just a little FYI, if I were the HW of a show, any show, and it was tanking like this one ... I would be woman enough to take the blame because my pen is where the stories came from, regardless of who changed what, the direction of the stories fall to me. If RC would woman up then maybe he'd get a lot more respect than he does.

I don't watch any more, so I can't comment on current story lines. For the most part I hated RC writing, but I did like the whole Faison thing of 2012. I thought it was creepily well done. And other than a long gap between the first time we saw "Duke" and the time we saw real "Duke", it didn't drag on like crazy. Most of my issue with him was what he DIDN'T write after that. And the rude, childish way that he attacks fans on twitter. My dislike for him has more to do with that than his writing. But if you think that FV just stands around and has nothing to with cutting lines, scenes, etc, I think you are mistaken. He's the producer. He is in charge of pre and post production, all of it. RC has a lot of bad ideas, but Valentini is the one that lets them fly.
But having said all of that.......Emma was barely on for any time at all. And TR couldn't come back. This wasn't a Robert and Holly story no matter how much you want to make it one. It was Tony's exit story. Would one line have made THAT big of a difference or would we still be picking it apart because it wasn't all about RH? Maybe some day they will get their own story, one dedicated to THEM. When that happens, if the HW destroys them, I will tear it apart. But this was not their time.
I think it's time to put this one to bed.
