Let me jump in here.
Mac was no lead. But I did watch all of GH back in the 90's and I can definitely say he wasn't background dressing. I get that some people in here hate Mac Scorpio, I'm no big fan myself, but I don't think it does any good to lie and mislead about characters airtimes.
Jumping in also. I don't have any strong feelings about Mac. I watched most of the 90s and yes he was there and I didn't mind him but that's about all I remember.
Somebody up in another post said posters were discounting supporting characters and I don't think that's true. It's just that nobody really comes in here to talk about Mac and his stories.
Another poster even said he'd be remembered fondly and he will be. But in general terms as an affable citizen, loving uncle, Maxie's main enabler, etc., and that's all true. But nobody has really been able to be specific in showing how writers were interested in the character which was one of the original points, that the writers weren't much interested in him after the initial push.

Mac was no lead. But I did watch all of GH back in the 90's and I can definitely say he wasn't background dressing. I get that some people in here hate Mac Scorpio, I'm no big fan myself, but I don't think it does any good to lie and mislead about characters airtimes.
Lets not create drama where there isn't any. First of all: Hate was ever used. How can you hate a character like Mac? So please Second of all nobody is lying in here. He was not lead (stated), did not drive story (stated), there has never been a story that was solely about him only, except his intro and even then it was shared and more about Robert. There is nothing wrong with supporting characters. This all started with the discussion of GM trying to have Mac be a lead with the departures mostly of Frisco and Mac. However THAT failed, period the end. So unless someone can actually state a story that was Mac-centered, this argument is over.
I have to agree with this, I honestly can't recall any story that was about mac and yes he was not able to fill the shoes left by JW and TR as the lead, thats just the truth maybe he had more on PC but i didn't watch that now that i think about ityes mac was one of the few supporting characters back then that didn't seem to have a story about himself.I mean even in the 80s the supporting characers got some meaty stuff.

You should probably give it up. Because that list destroys every single argument you chicks were screeching about. He's got more episodes than both Stone and Robin, and he and Felicia weren't together for long in 95. And he's got more episodes than her.
This is a classic bitch slap moment. Bravo to however made that list!
