EPIC GH smackdown from Huffington Post
Mar. 31st, 2011 08:20 amAm linking this here, because its just too good not to. Ed Martin writes in the Huffington Post about the death of Jake on General Hospital, and he is not a fan....
"... this latest GH tale has done everything wrong: It has made viewers feel bad about the time they have invested in the Jake storyline during the last few years and killed off a character that was uniquely positioned to be at the center of dozens of compelling stories in the years to come. That's no way to improve a show or support a dying daypart."
