The offscreen F&F reunion was just bizarre. Out of left field and pointless.

Frisco was written as a piece of shit for years. Have no idea why you people are saying his last return ruined him. If anything it made him a little bit better. Nobody but Mac, his romantic rival, was really bashing him. His daughter, understandably, had issues, as did his wife, but both of them ultimately expressed their love for him.
He was never a written as a piece of shit ON SCREEN until 2013. So to see him for the first time in two decades acting like that was OOC from my view. The back story about him leaving Felicia high and dry sll over the globe was a especially bad brand of crap. The public proposal, crap. The callousness of leaving Maxie on the spot cuz Felicia rejected him, crap. A big stinking pile of shit. He couldn'thave just left to help with the Lulu situation as a WSB agent? That would have been more in ccharacter for him.
NOP But Frisco was written like a POS when Georgie died. He kept Felicia from her daughter and then when she died? He send Felicia back alone.
He kept Felicia from her daughter? That's new. Last I checked she had brains of her own and went after him.

It was a poor excuse for a back story.

Frisco was super awesome back in the day. But yeah I soured on the character never coming back. Not there for Tony or his own daughter's funerals? That killed it for me. I even hated the offscreen F&F reunion as their great love was used as Felicia's excuse as to why she abandoned her children. I think they made an enormous mistake not just killing Frisco off years ago.
What Frisco needed was good back story to explain his time off screen, and then some sincere repentance when he did return. It doesn't take much, he could been embroiled in a wholelot of shit offscreen. But they didn't give him that, they made him a bigger dick by telling his daughter "there's nothing for me here" when she tearfully begged him to stay. Which made him a lying fake when he tearfully told her he wanted to make up for things. It was a dumb move also putting his ex wife who he'd left all over supposedly on the spot with a very public proposal after a very short period of trying to win her back. It was contrived writing meant to make him look worst.

Frisco was written as a piece of crap father and husband offscreen for the better part of 20 years. That's part of his story just as much as the onscreen stuff before.

So what did you honestly think was going to happen the day he returned? They were going to act like it was the early 90s again and ignore everything else? I'm confused.
Characters also get written as dead for years, but then they return and so long as there's a well written explanation, the viewers don't go on buying them as dead just because they were that way for years off-screen. Off screen is always fixable.

Yes, they way they had Felicia returned during Georgie's funeral ? She was acting like she had no brains at all, have you ever watch those scenes? Check it out and you'd see how brain dead that she was acting. People on the soap boards were really hating on her. It was like she chose Frisco over her own kids and Frisco was a dirty, no good asshat.

But that could be said about alllllllllllllllllll the vets. You guys keep harping on Frisco as if he was the only one used that way. We have a GH right now where there's no Genie Francis and when she was around? She got crap, No Tristan Rogers & we lost him because they were too busy signing OLTL actors, Finola Hughes who has basically been reduced to supporting, and Kristina, John, Kin, Ian and Lynn may as well be dayplayers..
Just depends who's here. I've seen just as many harp about Tristan and Genie. Tristan, Genie, and Jack. Actually those are the top 3 I'd like back if I were in charge.
That would be epic. I would love at least TR and GF back for this Luke DID story. I am secretly hoping this is TG's swan song but only if those 2 are back for it. It would be a fitting end to this trios history. Can't believe in December it will be 35 years since TR first appeared. In April, it will be 30 years for FH. I was only 10 and 15 but I remember the first episodes for both.
I remember both their entrance so well. The good ole days.

I saw those scenes. I hate what they did to Felicia too, but she's an adult and Frisco is not responsible for her actions.

In the Vet thread bashing = not kissing ass.

It happens ALL the time here. Whenever a beloved Vet thread vet is written as having their weaknesses or flaws brought up, it's considered OOC.

But that's only the beloved vets that are worshiped in this thread. Nobody here complains at all when vets like Lucy, Scotty or Tracy have their bad sides brought up, or another character just flat doesn't like them. But characters like Robert, Holly, Anna and Frisco are suppose to have nothing but endless supporters, universal love and ass kissing from all characters onscreen, at all times, or else it means they;re being bashed and written OOC.
Isn't it more OOC for Lucy and Scott to not show off their bad sides? That's what I love about them. I just expect them to act the way they're supposed to. Learned behavior from watching them onscreen day in and out for years.

Right...Plus I think it's absolutely, totally OOC for Lucy to be hanging around Duke and not Scott and many here say that around here a lot. So, yea, people do complained if Lucy is doing something OOC. I don't think anybody buy Ducy in the VET THREAD only the new viewers are buying into it. Plus, many have said that Duke is OOC? Scott is acting like a buffoon, so as long as he's acting that way? He remained in character, lol
