[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 69574, member: 27"] Morgan is not the first character to have this happen to him. Characters with little to no purpose while "alive" suddenly generate tons of emoting (scenery-chewing) and plotlines with him at the center. It's as if the character is more valuable dead than it was when it was alive. "Justice for Duke," anyone? I watched most of Thursday's show, which included Josslyn announcing she wants to move to Australia to live with her father (rather than have to deal with the eightieth reunion of CarSon) and I have to say...the girl playing Joss did pretty good work. Too often, in these scenes where Sonny is talked about negatively, the actors don't "sell" their character's anger adequately (I'm guessing the directors instruct them not to play it with sincerity, as if they're "torn" in their feelings about Saint Sonny even as they denounce him). But this girl made me believe she really meant it when she said she wanted "out" of the whole thing. If Josslyn gets her way and Carly lets her move to Australia, it would be priceless if she pointed out that Carly's obsession with Sonny has cost her yet another child. "Two down, one to go..." she could quip, pointing to Michael. I've said it elsewhere and I guess it bears repeating here: if SB returns as the original version of Jason (robotic, murderous puppet of Sonny's), then I will be officially done with GH. Not because I like Billy Miller's wishy-washy Jason, but because I'm already repelled by Sonny/Carly, and reuniting the triumvirate that put GH on the chopping block in 2011 with even MORE screen time is not something I want to watch.
