Chad Duell - Michael Appreciation Post Chad’s Emmy winning performance as Michael embodied the heart of #GH The tie that bound the Corinthos and Quartermaine families, with Spencer grit Michael’s legacy of pain and loss never defeated him and family always came first @duelly87

@chris_attaway @tinashervinski The way Michael saw her, enveloped, and protected his sister Joss in their classic hug - I’ll always miss this and the real Drew Cain acting without a word or his arms and big eyes Jason being there for Monica was a special moment too Back when Q family meant being there #GH

On this day in 2019 on General Hospital The quartermaines said a final goodbye to Oscar #GH #GENERALHOSPITAL

@forevaselenag @Nicholaswifex I expressed a personal preference for the layered acting of a man hurt and angry who still holds himself in check after seeing what he saw growing up I miss Chad’s physicality I don’t see the hints of Michael anymore, the doubts, the stammer Just a pompous angry Morgan with kids

@cdkmkt @Nicholaswifex That still doesn’t make sense to blame Rory though like let’s just say you are right and that is a acting choice why are you judging Rory for that at the end of the day It’s just a character you don’t know him.

Miss them and their easy humor that just felt so real and natural. Even when the scene was silly the sibling energy was on point. This Michael didn’t miss a beat either. He knew Carly and Joss’ secrets because he was always observing their reactions #gh

@forevaselenag @Nicholaswifex I never said he was bad in real life I don’t like seeing men shaking women in any context even disgusting Drew never did it. This isn’t the 1900’s anymore It’ll never be sexy to see a man grab a woman in anger I don’t like #Gh infantilizing women I don’t like the stories

@cdkmkt @Nicholaswifex You got people who act out all types of things in movies and shows that don’t mean they’re bad in real life

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag Well no one has a right to touch anyone but I don’t see anger here and notice how she slid her hand down? It wasn’t to grab and pull him- just to get his attention Willow’s awful BUT Throwing a tiny WOMAN physically out of a house is a lot different and it’s never “hot”

@forevaselenag @cdkmkt I guess this is assault too 😂😂

@forevaselenag @Nicholaswifex I’m saying Chad had a more physical presence so he could just insert himself and ACT intimidating The script doesn’t say to “grab and shake her”. That’s an acting choice Either way- Michael is being disgusting and lost his code. The writing is bad - no one’s decent anymore

@cdkmkt @Nicholaswifex My point is it doesn’t matter what actor they get to play Michael you gotta follow the script if Chad was to come back and they had him acting like this with Willow. It would be no different. You can’t put that on Rory. He didn’t go there saying hey you better let me be abusive.

@adaydreamer_xo Here are some better pics for you -

🥰🔥💥 #GH #Misha

@kimbafuzz There’s never a reason- just convenient plot devices anymore and thy don’t even sell it anymore Chase is an idiot Like why is Drew alive? It would have actually made sense for Willow as his widow of one day to inherit his seat I guess- then again she was tried for his murder

What is Joss’ endgame by telling Jack about Carly’s “infidelity”? This makes zero sense to me, so I need help to connect the dots. Cause wtf? #GH

Chad and Eden had the connection that we didn’t need dialogue to see Michael saved Joss as a baby and when they shared scenes it showed on screen, the care, concern AND exasperation when she drove him nuts But this was perfection #GH

“Do this for me, ok? Just let me take care of someone today” Michael and Joss’ bond here elevated this scene after Jonah’s “death” It’s much harder to act quietly - Michael made sure his little sister (who walloped Nelle) was ok after a traumatic day. #GH

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag You’re in MY POST about the only Michael I’ll ever respect You jumped in And plenty of people aren’t impressed with anything on #GH lately Boring retread plot based stories where the actors just stand flat footed frozen face -and recite lines and characters do dumb things

@cdkmkt @forevaselenag There is no way you are sitting in my mentions right now and trying to convince me Rory is abusive because how he plays, Michael. You don’t know this man. He’s just really good at his job.

@forevaselenag @Nicholaswifex That wasn’t Chad either but again - Michael ONLY did it to save his sister and his mother’s life - so at least his intent was noble. Chad played Michael as a man haunted by that and the SA in prison after and determined to do better It was embedded in his character - #GH

@cdkmkt @Nicholaswifex Michael could’ve easily grabbed Claudia, but he chose to get a weapon and hit her until she died so don’t make Chad sound more superior than Rory

@forevaselenag @Nicholaswifex Material and story sure but the way the lines are delivered, the inflection, the movement and body actions are the actors choices. When it’s good it’s a dance Chad had a way of making Michael dangerous without making him abusive.

@cdkmkt @Nicholaswifex I don’t Stan Michael, but this is such a far reach like are we dead ass right now? Rather Chad was playing him or Rory this is the material they gave him. It doesn’t matter who the actor is if Chad was to come back that’s what they would’ve had him do.

Oh so innocent face Michael’s devious side hatched a perfect plan to trap Nelle with a fake wedding as she planned to off him and steal his inheritance before he could give all his money to their son Chase helped record her confessing and freed Carly but she switched babies #GH

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag Again- Michael has been wronged so many times - but it’s not “hot” to see a man use power on a woman or be petty. His plans usually are more clever and he felt bad even going after Nelle but did it to protect It’s a weak rewrite of the Chase-Nelle set up and will backfire too

@cdkmkt @forevaselenag Wiley was right there. Her ass was going crazy. He had to stop her. I mean I feel like Carly was way harder on Willow than Michael. He’s been nothing but nice to her and she’s currently plotting to set him up for attempted murder we don’t care about her ass

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag Same scenario as above- and many times with others too notice the difference? CD didn’t grab at a female actress, he stepped in to block or wraps them in a hug Michael crossed the line once and wouldn’t again It’s also technically assault once you put hands on in anger

@moniquewhi15885 April of 24 it was when Jack was sniffing around I loved the humor and teasing. Writing Michael out of the Joss dealing with Dex death story to make him sit around moping was a huge mistake. Chad and Eden always rose to the occasion and he brought out the best in her and others.

@cdkmkt What month and year is this from?

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag I have more photos too but stop imagining Michael isn’t a toxic ex now copying Sonny and sacrificing his kids’ happiness for revenge and bitterness The man who once defended his sisters and other women wouldn’t allow himself to touch her in anger even if she did deserve it.

@cdkmkt @forevaselenag If you’re referring to that breakdown, Willow was having he did not shake her. You guys need to stop being sensitive. Next time he’ll kiss her on the cheek and say it’s OK baby. Everything will be all alright. 🥰✨

@tahbunnii @Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag I’d rather Michael punch a man 100x than watch him “shake sense” into a mother of his children or “take away her power” He punched Smoltz just for talking about Joss’ sex tape and now they have him setting his ex up for round two of a tape?

@cdkmkt @Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag U sound dumb as hell

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag Nope - a real man knows his size and power takes care NOT to grab and shake women like he has multiple times now. I DON’T CARE if she deserved it - he didn’t do it to Nelle Michael’s past made him extra sensitive It’s not sexy to see a man use power on a woman in a breakdown

@cdkmkt @forevaselenag “Manhandles women” you just made that up like stop being soft it is OK for him to act more like a man now that Rory plays him 😎🔥

@Nicholaswifex @forevaselenag Oh I don’t care about this “version” at all He’s boring basic and cringe with - one frozen look He manhandles women, and seemingly is Sonny jr He looks more like Morgan and accomplishes about as much I liked when Michael had humor, layers, height, and took trash out #GH

@forevaselenag @cdkmkt They hate to see my baby coming 💅🏼
