As a GH fan I hate the whole way this has
played out.Seems the story has changed
A bit.I thought originally he just wanted a break
and to be in Nashville.
It does seem odd is loyalty to JFP.But Y&R
Can keep her.
I was such a SB fan or really I guess a
Jason fan..I do really miss him but
Think it was sad for his fans when he joined
Y&R.but it’s his life..I never watch CBS
soaps and that won’t change for anyone.
Jmo..

I love it! It means that Doug will be around for a while! I think Steve and Doug will be great together ! Can’t wait.

I enjoyed Steve Burton on CH and I enjoy him on Y&R. Y&R was due for a refresher of characters and stories after so many missteps in the MAB era. Is everything the JFP team done good? No. But there is progress. I like Paul and Nikki together very much, more than Victor and Nikki. Seeing them more on the screen is a plus for me. The idea of Paul and Christine worrying about a baby now seems a little farfetched. I know there are late-in-life pregnancies but really? I am weary of Victor and would appreciate a change in… Read more »

Oh crimminy – The Dylan Show ? Really ? How silly is that ?
I’m thrilled that Paul is Dylan’s bio dad.
Paul and Nikki have a long standing history – and the reveal that they now share a child (an ADULT) one at that ….doesn’t mean it has to be a threat to Victor or Christine.
I would think that Victor would be more comfortable with Paul being Dylan’s dad than evil Ian Ward.
Nikki is already establishing ties with Dylan ,this gives Paul another shot at parenthood……bonus if he and Christine wind up pregnant.

Whether or not what he say is true what went down at GH, its still the dullan show…however, its better to tie him to a legacy character like Paul than newbie Ian!!!

Seems like he is a good guy, happy with his career, and okay with GH recasting Jason.

That’s right Steve, blame fans who don’t like “change” , divert, & NEVER answer the questioned posed. We fans are too dumb to notice. O_o

I am not at all keen on the Dylan S/L also the same goes for Avery she is supposed to be a Lawyer not a cook they are making Y & R ridiculous they need to improve on all S/L and for heavens sake get replacements for the actors who have left.
I do hope that the rumor is right that they have asked MM back to play Adam again, and please wake Phylis up from her Coma ! enough already.

Just glad that Steve is on YR

Gosh could this guy be anymore full of himself? I use to care but now he can have the show because it is not the Y&R Bill Bell created.

He was good as Jason but he bores me now

I love the fact that Paul is Dylan’s bio dad. I don’t think it’s the “Dylan” show at all. I think there is a pretty fair balance of all the characters although most of the s/l’s are totally boring.

I followed Jason to Y&R love the show and there can never be too much Dylan! And I think Steve Burton handled leaving GH like the gentleman he is!

No, I think the main reason people think it’s the Dylan show is because it has been so much “the Avery show” for the past year, and Dylan was made her boyfriend. And before Avery, it was Chelsea. I wish tptb would let this story be about Nikki, Paul and Dylan, and leave Avery out of it, although I know they won’t. I know Jessica Collins/Avery has fans, but I’m not one of them and she bores me.

There’s a difference between not making a deal, and being asked for things that can’t be worked out no matter how much they want to keep an actor. I suspect there were rumblings of him going to Y&R or the manager wouldn’t have been called and asked. Probably put out there to hopefully get better leverage to get what he wanted. Didn’t work. I was really tired of the one dimensional character of Jason anyway. I’m hoping with a new actor they will send Jason in a new direction (or should I say old direction) of Jason Quartermaine. I miss… Read more »

I dont blame him, per se. I blame that showruiner JPF.

I think he has been pretty gracious and seems to be a decent guy, I just dont like the character and the way he is being anchored to the canvas.

Maybe JFP should have played ball with the real talent that walked out the door in the past year and given a less is more approach to Dylan.

So he never really did address the issue of him being on the screen so much.

Who cares why he left GH. The issue the fans have is the amount of unfair screen time he has. That was the question posed…and NOT answered.

I don’t think ANYONE would have given a s##t if he’d been introduced like most new soap characters.

I believe most all knew Paul was Dylan father from near day one..
Y&R is very obvious with their plots.
Seems the fans usually know months ahead of time what comes to be ..

also to mention-
It was mainly ABC, not RC or FV that did not OK the deal SB wanted..

believe it or not, RC and FV are not totally in control of GH, ABC is.. 🙂

I like Steve Burton on Y&R. I don’t think it’s the Dylan show. It’s most of the rest of the show that’s a problem. All the un-interesting characters and too many of them. Not to mention, just like GH didn’t make a deal with Steve, Y&R did the same with Billy Miller. I can honestly say, they truly, let the fans down in a BIG way with that one. Between not being able to enjoy Villy anymore and what would have been a great storyline between Billy and Victoria, plus numerous boring characters/actors, it is turning this show into something… Read more »

Glad he’s having so much fun on the show–that’s what it’s about. The actors have all the fun and the viewers none. I don’t think it’s the Dylan show, but there have been times when a little goes a long way and I don’t mean that in a good way. I have fast forwarded through a lot of Dylan/Avery scenes because they are so inane. The cooking story added nothing. I guess it was so they could get to Paul being shot and the sire story, but surely there had to be a less painful way to get there.

I am thrilled Dylan’s is Paul’s son– I don’t know why they even bothered with this Ian Ward nonsense in the first place– it should have been Paul from the get go— As for the Dylan show– what is done is done– Dylan is now woven into the fabric of the show– so I’m embracing it— I rather watch Dylan than watch what they did to Neil and Lily– both characters are no longer the Neil and Lily I grew to love— I rather Dylan than watch Summer, or Noah and his girlfriend, Tyler and Abby etc. If the plan… Read more »

I for one think SB is a great actor. I have been watching gh for 40 years lets just say its time to give it a rest people Steve is a good actor and needed change who cares weather or nothe stayed or went he is getting paid not me! Lol he can also take on any role . I think as far as playing Dylan he is doing a good job. the show is not just about him they have to finish stories, so they gave him a longer one. good for him I like seeing him play Pauls… Read more »

Am I the only person who finds him very cocky? I’ve never been a huge fan of him as an actor, but ever since he left GH and went to Y&R, he, as a person, has come off very negatively, too me. Even in this article, when asked about complaints of it being “The Dylan Show” because of his constant airtime, he throws it back on the fans saying that “they just don’t like change.” No, change is fine, change is good in moderation, not when a character is suddenly everywhere, all the time. Now, granted, that’s not Steve’s fault… Read more »

Bwahaaaahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!! – the ratings must REALLY be terrible for him to put this plea out there for fans to watch! …..I’m a long term watcher and I’m not buying it…..He said they wouldn’t give in to his demands…..and I DON”T BLAME THEM ONE BIT!……I only imagine this as Steve thinking that he wa GH’s bread and butter and he wanted his comeuppance – like Tony Geary….Even Maurice Bernard isn’t bytching about pay…..that’s what blows his story outta the water because if ANYBODY should be asking for more money and expecting it, then it would be Maurice…….Steve bit the bullet and… Read more »

I don’t believe Steve Burton as to how and why he moved to Y&R. That was the plan between him and Jill all along when his contract came up for renewal. BUT, I no longer watch Y&R so I don’t care what Steve Burton does, I think he’s dull and not a very good actor. Why he is even nominated for a Emmy is beyond me, what did he do to deserve the nomination? I see Jill’s hand in this. I refuse to watch the Emmys but I will be hoping Steve does not win.

Good riddance from GH. I never liked Jason Morgan after he became Sonny’s flunkie. I hope the inevitable Jason re-cast goes the Quartermaine route.

He doesn’t answer the obvious, he doesn’t address the fact that most fans don’t buy the load his is selling…and sadly he doesn’t get he is a downright bore.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ! GH SOOOOO much better since he’s gone.

I stopped watching Y&R after Delia’s pointless death. Now I might watch ten minutes a month at the most. And every time I tune in, without fail, it’s Dylan standing around, looking like an idiot. Or maybe his character is just meant to be perplexed 24/7. His acting was better on GH twenty years ago than it is now–there’s plenty of evidence on YouTube.

I am not surprised that Dylan is prob Paul’s son. This will drive Christine crazy since she is so jealous of Nikki. As for “the Dylan Show” it’s a breath of fresh air for this soap. Victor and Jack’s feud is getting old . The craziness of Jill and Colon’s relationship is so phony. As is Sharon’s secret. Recast Phyllis and bring her back.

The biggest problem with this character has been the show’s insistence on making him a paragon of perfection from the second he appeared. He’s a war hero. He’s got mad carpentry skillz. He saves little kids lost in the woods. He marries grifters who claim he put a baby in them. He rebuilds kitchens for chicks with the bi-polars after a tree falls on their roof. He shares his Turkey Day dinner with people who are alone for the holiday. Even the off-camera affair he had with a married woman was explained so that the blame was her husband’s for… Read more »

This is not “The Dylan Show”, grow up people, really tired of these fans trying to dissect every word and motive of the actors. Move on stop watching the show. let the story unfold…..grow up, you don’t have half as much writing talent as these writers, your opinions don’t really matter.

There is a difference in what Miller wanted and what SBu wanted. What SBu wanted sounds more like a steady schedule that allowed him to work in LA and have time in Nashville. What Miller wants/wanted is a schedule that producers and writers can’t necessarily plan aroundn. If Miller gets a job and can’t be on set that throws a major wrench in the works especially if the show tapes only 4 to 6 weeks a head. As a producer you can’t plan long term for a major character if he wants to pursue other projects. It isn’t practical. It… Read more »

Reading all these blogs we are really all,so unhappy with our once beautiful Y & R I used to wait anxiously everyday for MY prog. It was always so exciting, those days are gone now I am watching out of habit, I FF most episodes. Where as I used to always watch it live after 40 years, time has only made it such a sad show instead of the delightful and happy hours I spent watching, I do not think it will ever improve sad to say seems to me the heart has gone out of it,And TBTB do not… Read more »

Simply put: I am an admirer of Steve’s work from the beginning . It’s great to see him wherever he is and the behind the scene politics don’t concern me.

GH had become The Jason Show before Burton left, so it’s not surprising the same thing is happening with his character at Y&R, especially considering who’s running the show. I don’t miss him on GH. His character had become stale and way over exposed. So even though people are still talking about how and why he left, personally, I think it was for the best. GH is doing fine without him.

I like Dylan and love the fact he is Paul’s son.Thats actually one thing on Y&R that went the right way.

I’m not surprised about “The Dylan Show” comments because I am guessing that the show paid top dollar for Steve Burton to join the show.

I don’t know how they can say it is the “Dylan Show”. I started watching Y&R only to see Steve Burton and it seems I don’t watch the show more than I watch it.
I am beginning to wonder why they brought him over because all I’ve seen him do is pour coffee. I have been very disappointed with the lack of story. I’m hoping this will all change.

To all those bashing Mr.Burton, he is a genuinely good guy. I know multiple people who have met him & have nothing but good things to say about him. He made a career choice and by no means is Dylan ruining the show. In fact, I recently met Sharon Case and she said that Steve is one of the kindest people she has worked with. So, before you make assumptions about him, try to consider there are two sides to every story.

love steve burton and i never heard it called the dylan show i am just glad he is getting a story and that paul will be his dad. glad he is on this show since GH wouldnt give him a deal,least we still get to see him,no compaints here.

I’ve been hanging in faithfully to/with ABC soaps since the end of ’68. I’ve watched SB grow up on GH from a young guy of 20/21 to a man in his 40’s, and always admired how well he acted the part of Jason Morgan. It is to his credit that he could take his character from the extremely bright and sweet character who had a calling to become a Doctor, to a brain- damaged kid who divorced his past and became an emotionless(for the most part) enforcer to a mob boss. I think SB had the perfect right to make… Read more »

I am just happy he never showed up on Days or I would be hitting the FF button. Dylan is a boring, character played by a one dimensional actor.

He was CROWNED KING of Y&R. The Genoa City palace was already full of princes and a couple of kings. They did not need King Dylan. He did nothing to improve ratings, and minus Michelle, Michael, Billy and Liz, things are going downhill.
We loved the characters we know and have, this newby wasn’t needed.

Chaz…Y-E-S…THANK YOU!!!!! You are so RIGHT ON!!!!! More and more (real-life and all), watching some of my neighbors FIGHT (verbally or whatever) offers WAY MORE EXCITEMENT than watching that blah and bland Dylan…LOL!!!!! I’ll take watching my certain neighbors THROW DOWN AND ALL over watching that dull-as-dirt Dylan ANY DAY…LOL!!!!! And…whenever Dylan The Dullard starts huffing, puffing and stomping all over Genoa City (aka the show), I keep pressing (over and over again) the Mute button on my DVR remote control until he stops talking…LOL!!!!! Yep.

Take care, Chaz. Peace.

Why is the dude still talking about Gh?? Hmm is he upset Gh is gold with out him? Or is it because Biller Miller is about to show him what a real emmy supporting actor is all about? Me thinks both.

I have enjoyed Steve Burton’s performances on BOTH “General Hospital” and “Young and Restless.” I liked his teamwork with both Sonny and Spinelli on GH, especially…….and go ahead and bash me, but I enjoy seeing him with Avery, Nikki, and even Victoria on “Y and R.” I certainly don’t care for everything that’s gone on lately on “Young and Restless,” like the awful Delia storyline, but the Dylan stuff is OK with me…….I even like his friendship with Stitch! Sometimes when I watch Stever Burton on Y and R, I have to wonder if he’s glad not to be playing… Read more »

More and more, Y&R is getting WAY TOO RIDICULOUS…CONSTANTLY throwing that dull-as-dirt Dylan onto our TV screens 24/7!!!!! BLECH and more BLECH!!!!! As an example (or whatever), I wish that Y&R would bring Carmine back. Hey…to me, Carmine is WAY MORE ENTERTAINING than Dylan!!!!! And…Marco Dapper is SO WONDERFULLY EASY on the eyes…H-E-L-L-O!!!!! Bottom Line Here: I’ll gladly watch Carmine The Crazy/Cuckoo Bartender over that Dylan The Dullard ANY DAY…LOL!!!!!

I love the show Young and the Restless. I think its fantastic that Paul and Dylan are related. It will make a great story line.

I love the young and the restless!! I just don’t want Paul to die. They just killed Delia off, Katherine Chancellor is gone!!! Now to take Paul off is going to cause them to lose me as a fan!!!! They don’t have to compete!!! Too many people, male & female fans love this show. I like the fact that Paul is Dylan’s dad but don’t kill him off!!!!
