I thought TR was very handsome back when he came on (I was 21). Even with Tiffany though I didn't like his attitude. And yes it was that self absorbed ass you mentioned. IMO he always had this, "you are so lucky I'm with you" attitude. And he treated women basically like a toy that he played with until he got bored and found a new one. I was amazed watching him change as he fell in love with Holly and I loved it. About your campaign, I don't watch anymore or follow the writers, FV and NV but I have been posting some pics of them with your hashtag marks. I have tons of pics to help with that. I could post one a day for years. (rofl)I also changed my Twitter header to pics of them with the hashtag on it. I can stop anytime you guys think it's been long enough or I can endlessly promote Holly and Robert. Guess what? I haven't watched GH in years myself!! LOL!! Fortunately, I wasn't even watching it during the Ethan parentage mess. I took it off my DVR about 5 years ago, and when I turned it on last Spring on a day off, I saw that they brought Duke back just to kill him off again! I haven't even turned it on since. My RnH interest was rekindled when I found their story on YouTube & fell in love with them all over again (my tapes from that time are Beta & packed up in storage). To be honest, I don't really care what happens to the show itself at this point, but I want to see a permanent happy ending for Robert & Holly. I don't even think they need to come back to the show on contract; I just want to see them reunited & then leave the show before TPTB can screw them up again!! So I'm just like you, campaigning & not watching!! I also want them to come back, give her the wedding of her dreams, and ride off into the sunset to find their Manderlay.

Unfortunately, Robert and Holly don't have to be on contract or screen to be screwed over by the writers. That whole bunch of BS with Luke happened off screen. No one saw that ONS take place. But there was Ethan, Holly as his momma and Puke as his pappy. I wish I could lay all the blame on the doorstep of Bob Guza but Geary admitted in an after retirement interview with Michael Logan that, "I could bully writers and producers into doing things my way, and a lot of times I bullied quite successfully." He took to Nathan Parsons who played Ethan and had that story changed so that he belonged to Luke and Holly. He was originally supposed to be the coma baby of Robert and Holly. Maybe there's a chance with him gone that the story could be changed but I'm not seeing it with these women writing the show now. I also see very few people happy with the stories they've put out. The ratings are starting to fall again though I don't know why anyone looks at those. There are 4 Soaps and GH has held the #3 spot for at least the last six years (probably longer). IMO gaining a few hundred viewers in a category means absolutely nothing if you don't move from 3rd place to 2d or 1st. But that's just me. Oh, you're absolutely right--Tony Geary totally bullied that storyline change, and I HATE that!! He selfishly took away the dreams of an entire fanbase. I doubt if it'll be changed; the best they could do was lessen Holly's "culpability" by adjusting the story so she didn't cheat on Robert (Luke just cheated on Laura)! Again, I'm happy I didn't actually watch any of that BS. I personally think that GH is nearing its end. My hope is that TPTB will just throw us a bone, reunite RnH, send them off & leave them alone!! I don't have to see or hear from them again once they're back together! As far as I'm concerned Ethan IS Robert and Holly's son. I don't need the writers to "fix" it. They'd probably screw that up too. That's when I figured Ethan to be born, as well. Her family hated Robert and would prevent them from being parents. Wasn't Ethan adopted out and had to find Holly as well?

Sounds like he was jealous that the RnH love story was so much more believable than the LnL rape turned love story.

After Robert and Holly's marriage of convenience,it seemed as if Bobbie made her feelings clear about it.Robert did a good and noble thing to protect Holly and her baby,yet Bobbie would throw little snide remarks about Robert to Holly and was very nasty to him when Holly was in the hospital. Do you think that she was concerned about Holly's feelings because Robert was a ladies man or was it jealousy? I just rewatched that episode to see if I could detect a look of jealousy. Because they didn't closeup on her expression, I don't think it was. Instead, her look to me said she's only your wife because you wanted to keep her in the states and take care of Luke's child. She also blames him for being so wrapped up in his work that he wasn't giving Holly's state of mind his full attention, which led to her overworking herself, causing the miscarriage. She resented that he still had to keep the pretense up to keep her from being deported. At this point, I don't think Bobbie cared if Holly stayed in the states or not.
