Maurice Benard Talks On Tyler Christopher’s ‘State of Mind’ Appearance & GH’s Nina/Sonny/Carly Drama

18
I’m sorry, folks, but so many things about this interview bother me, I don’t know where to start. First, the show is monopolized by the Corinthos Crime Hour; must it dominate this site as well? Second, I didn’t mind Tyler Christopher’s acting but anointing him as one of the finest daytime actors ever should remain only an opinion. Third, I felt there were hidden slams against the current Nikolas, as if HE were behind Christopher’s ousting. Bad form. Finally, I’m glad TC has been diagnosed as bi-polar and I wish him well in life and future endeavors. There, rant over.
I’m with you on this, Soaphound. I found this to be a snoozefest. We’ve read a lot about Benard’s state of mind, but his ego and arrogance are turning off increasing numbers of viewers. I’ve long tired of his top-dog status with this show. All this discussion and analysis of the Corinthos clan’s so-called importance to the show is nauseating.
Agree
I’m ranting right along with you, Soaphound–The Corinthos dominate every corner, every space on stage.
Are we the only viewers who hold such antipathy to said “family”?
To add insult to injury, my sister was telling me that Ramsey is returning as Peter’s twin?—I don’t read tabloids and such—how true is that? Only the elite get away with nepotism—
Aside—was Madeline the supposed woman who left “her” baby behind at the commune? Was that baby Nina’s child? Hmmmm–
I will definitely watch Maurice and Christopher’s State of mind, especially after Maurice gave us all this info on his threesome with Carly and Nina, who to tell you the truth I like him better with.What she did was lousy but try to remember the saying “There but for the Grace of God go I” when you’ve lived as long as I have you realize that everything is not black and white and that darn grey sneaks in there. I like Cameron even though he goes by the name Drew. There will only be one Drew for me. Anyway,he’s such… Read more »
I applaud Mo’s State of Mind Series. It’s always enlightening. However, I think Mo and his ego have done damage to the character of Sonny. I literally fast forward these Nina & Sonny scenes. I understand if an actor wants change, in that case take a long vacation from show or leave. Majority of fans invest in characters & damaging Carly’s character & rewrite psycho Nina doesn’t fly for this long time fan. Besides they take too much screen time from other talented actors on the show that deserve consistent stories.
Psycho Nina is right! If she turns out to be Willow’s real mother, watch how nutty she gets!
Nope…Carly and Sonny all the way! They know each other and Mo is right he tried to stay with Carly and she pushed him to Nina! Hell he came back for Carly! I get it but I don’t like it! Definitely getting old now so Jack up someone else life for awhile and no not Michael and Willows either!! We would like to see more of Kathleen Gati and some of the other actors as well! And for gods sake get rid of Esme…Lol…She’s working on my SOM! ♀️♀️ Would love to have TC back for sure by the way… Read more »
I agree Tyler Christopher is a good actor but lets not show any “disrespect” for the actor who took over the role of Nicholas which unfortunately this article has done. And once Maurice Benard talked about Nina exhibiting vulnerability it was like a viewer wanting to say “you have got to be kidding” or let me check to see if its April 1st.I am sure many viewers watch GH for the storylines and entertainment value that we have seen through the yrs. I am sorry but all I see from the character of Nina is an unbalanced individual who is… Read more »
Just watched Christopher and Maurice and Christopher’s gone through hell and back. I just hope he continues getting the help he needs to keep him on the right track.I’d love seeing him back on GH or any other show. My very best to him and his continued recovery.
Carly and sonny all the way, they are the best together, nina and sonny boring.
Agree, I want Sonny back, not lightweight Mike who condones Ninas betrayal over loyalty to his family, the whole thing is a dud.
I know, Soapkin. And how about his “dealing” with Esme? Even SHE came out on top in that confrontation. In the old days, she’d be floating face down at everyone’s favorite go-to dockside hangout. While not condoning violence, Sonny needs to get back his mobster mojo and start dealing with things once and for all. By the way, did that “brilliant” police chief Jordan check for fingerprints on the phone Esme planted? Trina certainly didn’t touch it. And why would such a “devious mastermind” keep the phone anyway? If she was gonna keep it, she could have just used her… Read more »
I am rooting for Carly_Sonny.She needs too find her own man. Long time fan.
Big fan of sonny and carly I hate sonny being with nina
I agree Sonny and Carly❤️ And bring back the old Trina
The old Trina left so she could go to college at UCLA. So it’s not likely she’s coming back. Maybe in 4 years… but not until she’s got her degree.
I do agree she was much better in the role, but I’m not going to hold it against her that she wanted an education to have another path for the future, should this acting thing not work for her, long term.
Well I’m probably in the minority but I like Sonny and Carly apart so much better!The character of sonny is a little less dark with Nina wich is more interesting although Nina is nutso!Drew and Carly are fun together it makes her more likable less intense and definitely a little more human!
The interview was amazing and Tyler Christopher had a lot of guts to put it all out there……I hope he continues to be able to stay sober and has success in whatever he does in the future!
