Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daniel Avery" data-source="post: 36740" data-attributes="member: 27">It does seem as if the writing is on the wall, and Nathan (my beautiful, beautiful Nathan) is likely going to end up biting the big one.  The new writers marginalized Ryan Paevey/Nathan almost from day one, and between the intro of the shiny new (and hot) Griffin and Kirsten Storms's off-screen issues, Maxie/Nathan have become yesterday's news.  I can't help but wonder if this back-burner positioning is a CYA move in case Storms has to take another leave of absence or (heaven forbid) has to leave the show, and Paevey's lack of screen time is a by-product of that (that is, they value him so little that they'd write both of them off if KS left). A correspondent of mine pointed out that the days of GH creating a whole family for him (mother, aunt, two half-sisters) are long gone.  I countered that the same could be said of Maxie, since virtually her whole family has been killed off, written out, or barely seen.  If Maxie were to leave town, would there be any reason for Felicia or Mac to make their quarterly appearances?</blockquote>
