OLTL is dead and Natalie really doesn't matter on GH. Personally, I would have preferred to see OLTL be the show left standing. It was far superior to GH in every way, but life's not fair and OLTL getting cancelled is a good demonstration of that.
I think the idea was to get OLTL fans to go to GH, but they didn't, at least not in any significant, measurable ratings number. Therefore, Natalie no longer matters. If there had been a significant ratings increase, half the cast of OLTL would be about to converge on Port Charles. But that didn't happen. I am very disappointed. I was sure there'd be a difference, small, but at least...something.
