ground because he's pissed that OLTL was cancelled and GH wasn't (yet)? If he is intentionally writing to try to get GH cancelled, I'd be more inclined to believe it is because that's what ABC hired him to do (write GH as badly as he can on purpose).
But I don't really believe that. I think it's more likely that some of the GH audience doesn't like his writing style or the hybrid concept or his favorite characters. I bet RC would actually like to keep his job writing for one of the last soaps on daytime.
