The show is not based on real events. The show is grossly inaccurate and has twisted the facts about the case which are known from the trial and the books about it
i really view the creation of this show to be negative for this reason. it is extremely dramatized, sensationalized, and does nothing good for the reality of the situation. Although the actors, and people who contributed to the portrayal of this important story, might’ve had good intentions and methods for going about making this show happen, it’s still just no good for the real lives impacted by this.
@@ifthestarswereedible I disagree. I think you can look at the Serial podcast about Adnan Syed or the various Docuseries about Gypsy Rose (just to name two) or the 15 year push to free the West Memphis Three and see that modern interest with a modern age mindset can really push things to happen. Regardless of questionable "sensationalizing" or telling of events with "entertainment" being the main goal.
!!!Nicholas faced a lot of negativity on social media after the show was released, especially regarding his portrayal. People need to be kind and remember that he was working under the direction of showrunners, writers, researchers and directors, who asked him to portray Lyle in a specific way. If he's not saying much publicly, it’s likely because he's trying to stay neutral. You can tell he’s been through a lot, and at only 25 years old, he’s younger than Cooper, who’s 28. Nicholas only has social media and Cooper doesn't have a public profile or maybe it's hidden or under an alias name. No one really knows what happened to the parents except for the brothers themselves. The show presented several versions of events to highlight how sources and accounts differed. Even the brothers changed their stories before and during the trial, so it’s important to keep in mind that not everything is clear-cut.
@@PaolaGarcia-ex7et I can tell from more recent interview videos that Nicholas is becoming uncomfortable discussing the role. It has reached a point where he has verbally stated that he will not give his opinion on the case or their innocence. He is an upcoming actor. He reminds me of Tom Cruise in his prime and Christian Bale.
Nicholas did an amazing job and thats all it is at the end of the a day, a job! People attacking him because he isnt doing more, come off it. These kind of roles are very draining, esp when he has been tracking so much hate for a role! Get a life people
Nicholas is such an amazing soul and he's so authentic with his work. He wasn't miserable or unhappy to be there, he's received a lot of criticism on this role. For someone who hasn't had big roles like this before, and hasn't been in the media to this extent, I can only imagine what he's feeling. He must be so overwhelmed. It is okay that he is not involving himself with lyle. He probably feels guilty about the brothers response to the show. Even the brothers said that they were disappointed in especially have lyle was portrayed. Im sure that Nicholas feels bad about that so he's such separating himself from his work. He did an outstanding job and deserves zero hate.
Well they did portray Lyle like a total jerk/ spoiled brat !! so understand why brothers not too happy with Netflix. Lyle, was super mean to the trick o’ treater, mad because he didn’t get car he wanted from his dad , and just loud and manipulative … just major pain in the a**!
Nicholas got so much potential i hope he do more movies or acting on Netflix he will look good doing horror or action movies n i can see cooper doing a romance movie
All of them are AMAZING actors, including the "mom" but Javier and Nicholas' performances were incredibly outstanding, they without a doubt are "monsters" in acting!!!!
Cooper absolutely nailed it in episode 5: The Hurt Man. It appears like it was a continuous scene of over 30 minutes long!!!! How does an actor remember so much dialogue !!?! I was very impressed with the series and all the main cast !!!
I do love how much Cooper is supporting them outside of this role. He's also very empathetic when talking about them. I bet you when Kim K invited Cooper, he probably also invited Nicholas to join too, I'm assuming Nicholas turned it down. There's probably a good reason Nicholas doesn't want to get involved in real life, and I respect that. He's separating the art from himself, and if he needs to do that in order to emotionally move on from a rollercoaster of a show, then so be it. He also probably knows that the portrayal of Lyle is not everyone's favorite. But tbh he had nothing to do with it, Ryan Murphy directed him and wrote his lines
@@NatDelfin & @ gennie4024, Okay let's not compare the duo or say one's better than the other. They are both brilliant, and when they were both on screen, they were even more powerful. They both deserve praise for their phenomenal performance. We don't know them in real life, so no need to have expectations on people you don't know. The people around them clearly enjoy both of their company, i'm sure they are both great people. Let the art do the talking, leave them both alone
@@NaticzkaKaminskaHenryDolphin agree, Nicholas is more reserved and is new to the attention from the audience Netflix provides. It can be too microscopic, every new season that has been released on Netflix: Bridgeton, TUA, etc has received negative and positive reviews. I could not watch the 3rd season of Bridgeton until 5 months after its release due to the negativity and backlash. I read the books, so I am just excited to see what the writers do, and fans speculate so much without even watching and appreciating the work. NAC and copper are excellent actors, who I hope end up having successful careers, because a lot of the actors I am seeing being pushed and praised are not all that. NAC can act his but. I wish people would give the artists a chance just like they give all of the other mediocre performers.
@@delsmontgomery I get the whole wanting to separate yourself and not get too involved in the lives of the people you're portraying but Nicholas wasn't just portraying a character. He was portraying a real living person who is still suffering the consequences of the worst moments in his life. Something about Nicholas treating this as just a simple character rubs me the wrong way. A lot of his answers in these interviews come off as "media trained".
Love the guy who played Erik, he potrayed him extremelly well and he seems like a good guy. I hate how the interviewer cut him off when he said he met Lyle and Erik, would have loved to hear about that experience. I hope he gets his own interview to talk openly about that. Respect.
Bravo to the entire cast. I knew Javier would be amazing, he always is. Looking forward to seeing what both Nick and Cooper do next. Both of them gave impressive performances.
Nicholas is so cute! He's eyes are so romantic... Obviously he's new to all this and is probably nervous. I do the same when i have to talk in public... Not showing emotions, speaking briefly just hoping it will be over as soon as possible. I think he and Cooper were extremely amazing portraying the Menendez brothers. Honestly, they were like really really really good. I was speechless from the very first episode to the last one. I hope I get to see more of them asap!!
@@ScarlettEmeraldASMR where is his comment does it say theu deserved it? Fang. Just because we believe they were abused people automatically assumed the parents deserved it. NO they didn't. But that's what happened. They paid now let them free. Life is ridiculous.
He came off a little insensitive to me. I know most of the backlash is about his representation of Lyle so that has to be weird but he could have shown a little bit more compassion for Lyle instead of being like the project’s done so it time to move on.
@@lstarsabbAs if cooper was better when he did just as much as Nicholas you are a hypocrite, he played Lyle really well and it's normal that he moves on because it's a toxic role for him like Dahmer with Evan Peters, he has the right to do that. Stop acting like he's the one making the show. He has compassion for the brothers and supports them. Ryan's mistakes are none of his business
i tend to agree. He played Lyle like American psycho vibe. Imo. The whole family were insulted by it. Clearly they do not see Lyle in that light. I feel Nicholas was put in an uncomfortable position.. to say the least.
Nicolas played Lyle brilliantly, and he actually did say he feels for Lyle and Eric, in another interview. but go on, because clearly, you know everything, you airheads in the comments!
The portrayal of Lyle was an absolute disaster. The journalist who has covered this case since 1989 has said that the characters on Monsters are nothing like the real personalities of Erik and Lyle he met in 1989. Everyone involved in Monsters should apologize for slandering Lyle's character, in real life he was said to be the opposite way
@@Blue-dc3rh Mr.Nicolas did a good job, Mr. Koch playing Eric was a deep performance and the better acting. Those who wrote the character for the show are to blame, not Mr. Nicolas. I don't understand why some need this, they always look for targets and will pick what is within reach.
If I portrayed Lyle Menendez, I would be smartly moving onto my next character also - you don't want him living rent-free in your head for longer than necessary.
Lyle Menendez is a person who went through brutal abuse at the hands of both parents since age 6. He lost his hair by age 14 due to the stress. He did what he did to protect his younger brother from their abusers. Your lack of empathy and care for victims of child abuse is appaling.
Outstanding performance. All casts not only should received a standing ovation but also an appreciation of any forms. Thank you for made it happen, now the brothers and family have hope! ❤
The show hasn't gotten hate - it's gotten fantastic reviews for its acting and story telling. It's just the Menendez convict groupies that don't like anything that show the brothers as guilty of double murder.
@@firenze5555both things can be true at the same time you know. being murdered doesnt take away from the fact that their parents were rapists, abusers and enablers.
I searched up the Green space project that Cooper mentioned and I really hope the meeting went well. American prisons can be brutal and having a system like we have in Norway can really improve rehabilitation for the inmates.
Both of them deserve to be STARS. They catch my eye , there personality’s inside and out, and have amazing body language. Old souls perfect bodies wow great combo And the Star who plays the dad is classic , amazing
Nic is an amazing actor, he doesn't have to do anything special on a show like this - hes an actor- who knows what hes still letting go of from roles hes doing now or did
Cooper comes across as very genuine, kind person. The way he smiling the entire video while the other one looks annoyed... I admire how vocal he is about his support for the brothers, He's a REAL one for sure, what a sweetheart.
Why ? Nicholas gets all the hate and you hope he smiles, plus he's shy and anxious who wouldn't be, this is his first real series and he's still young. You're still here to judge and admire cooper for his smile but criticize Nicholas because he doesn't. He wants to move on like all actors do. He's not the first to seem serious so what's bothering you. We saw that he smiles when he feels comfortable plus he's so sweet.
@@kernevxf_ Really weird how so many different accounts are all parroting the same frankly weird three talking points like how young he is, or how he had a backlash, or how this is his first real role, like as if any of that explains why he comes across so negatively here or why it sounds like he’s insulting Cooper Koch for visiting them in prison. Literally anyone who either simply praises Cooper or mentions how Nicholas seems off here gets the same response…
@@notmyrealaccount8564 The weird thing is always having to comment on Nicholas' appearance and always praising Cooper just because he smiles. Why would Nicholas have to smile? Just to please you ? You're just so insensitive, these are his first real interviews and he was uncomfortable and you just have to make it even more uncomfortable with hateful comments, it's pathetic and you complain that we try to defend him when you are wrong? Hypocrite, in addition he is quite right not to agree to the visit, the brothers found this disrespectful.
@@kernevxf_ I agree with you on not commenting on appearance etc but as for the rest, you can’t really blame anyone for saying something here. It’s a talk show with people talking about the show and only one seems willing to do that and the other comes across as almost insulting to the other. It’s only you that seems to be coming out with a lot of unrelated rubbish in defence of someone who really doesn’t need the defence. Celebs going on a talk show to talk about a show that is based on real people should be able to do just that. If they can’t then be prepared for discussion in the comments and if they can’t handle that then they probably shouldn’t even bother going on a show like that in the first place.
We are all familiar with Javier-a superb actor. But I never heard about Cooper Koch or N. A. Chavez. I've been watching the Netflix series now and am in awe of their performances. Great job!!!
What is up with Nicholas? He shut down the question of connecting with Lyle REALLY QUICK, which I understand (although I respect Cooper Koch for his outreach more). However, for the remainder of the segment, Nicholas didn't smile or have any emotions whatsoever. Granted, he wasn't impolite, but it was odd that he just stared with dead eyes for most of the interview.
Yeah, there might be more to the story that he doesn’t want to say. Maybe Lyle was the one that doesn’t want to meet him. Or might be an awkward experience considering how Lyle was portrayed on the series.
This is how Nicholas is though. He is a naturally reserved person and it is clear some of the criticism has bothered him. He is still really new to all of this and needs to be advised better on how to deal with the media. I used to be in media so I see it - he’s uncomfortable in general.
Місяць тому+3
i love cooper so muchhh, he's such a sweetheart! i love the fact he had met erik and he believes him. this is really important.
These actors did a fantastic job 👏🏻 I love that they were able to dig deep to show the pain we can only imagine Lyle & Erik went through. Their story DESERVES and NEEDS to be told. Watch it yourself to find out who the real Monsters are in the Menendez brothers case
I just finished the show , excellent. Javier phenomenal actor and Cooper and Nicolas were also amazing in the show. It’s a controversial topic , they’ll be many opinions but one undeniable opinion, is that the actors went above and beyond ! 5/5 stars ❤
I’ve just seen the series. I must say It’s been a long time I didn’t see a series where there’s an ensemble of exceptional actors. From main to support to featured extras, All brilliant! They made the show the more interesting and chillingly special. Bravo!
He seems a little hurt. I guess it has something to do with Erik’s statement and a backlash from public all regarding Lyle’s character in the show. I actually feel bad for him, show runners basically set him up with that writing
@@gwendee5070 hey, I’m not on social media, what heat did he receive? And also, every series that has come out on Netflix has received mixed reviews, but have all managed to be in the top 5 for viewership??? I wish people would just watch and keep the comments to themselves, all of the actors did a phenomenal job, copper and nac were chosen out of 500 actors internationally. That is huge. I am a Nicholas fan and I know he is working really hard to build his career just like everyone else.
You have no morals if you defend this series, they turned a tragic real story that involves child abuse and turned it into a sexualized incestuous fanfiction full of lies
Cooper really looks a sweet and friendly guy. The way he was smiling the whole time in this interview melts my heart! And also I'm glad Cooper believes the Menendez brothers and also support them. Also meeting them in jail is also very kind of him. I'm a new fan of Cooper haha!
This interview was so interesting to watch! It was superficial but so revealing at the same time. Javier talks about his role in this project like a true seasoned professional. Cooper is a newcomer and it shows. He's almost giddy and talks excitedly about meeting the Menendez brothers with Kim Kardashian (I love the guy and he's a great actor). Then there's poor Nicholas, who is more than ready to move on from this project and doesn't even bother to hide that fact. Such contrasts! Loved it!
I miss Nic on General Hospital. For this interview I wish someone, either staff or himself, had styled his hair in a more becoming way. He is so handsome, and has a great great smile. Possibly he wasn't really so comfortable in this job when he got into it. I know I can't watch it. It really happened. That makes it more, much more, disturbing.
Cooper, you deserve the absolute best in your career. I adore how he is supportive of the brothers ❤️ the whole cast did fantastic but really impressed with him
Can we talk about the 33 minute scene of episode 5, no breaks, just one epic shot? Cooper was beyond phenomenal ! Good thing he believes Erik !
Exactly ! Instead of the same stupid journalists questions on the fake controversy
YES
For real. I kept waiting for the cut and was shocked when it never came. That's really embodying a character.
It was a hard scene to watch.
I was blown away. He deserves an award for that scene.
Cooper seems like a very humble guy. I’m happy that he took authentic approach to the role and didn’t take anything personal from Erik’ statement about the show
No one cares about this drivel. The US is committing genocide
Nicholas got backlash tho. Not Cooper
@@myrtilait was erik that released the statement

@@pamelaPlacendobruh why are u such a hater 😭 they are both talented
The show hasn't gotten hate - it's gotten fantastic reviews for its acting and story telling. It's just the Menendez convict groupies that don't like anything that show the brothers as guilty of double murder.
The acting was absolutely phenomenal 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
They knew they would face backlash like Evan Peters did.
But they nailed it
Cooper just smiling omg ❤
They are all outstanding actors. Nicholas and Cooper are beyond talented and Javier and Chloë are pretty much always brilliant.
The monsters were their parents.
Edgardo Díaz? Menudo manager.
Way to blame the victims * slow clap *
@@firenze5555both things can be true at the same time you know. being murdered doesnt take away from the fact that their parents were rapists, abusers and enablers.
Look! Experts! Experts everywhere!
Cooper seems so nice
The cast of Monsters is absolutely eerie. They are amazing ,the story is so gripping andchaunting, after all these years!
Massive respect to Cooper in this interview
I searched up the Green space project that Cooper mentioned and I really hope the meeting went well. American prisons can be brutal and having a system like we have in Norway can really improve rehabilitation for the inmates.
Can we appreciate how good the acting in this series was! Like the entire family acted so good
Ugh such good acting in this series! SUCH GOOD ACTING!
Amazing actors in this film, I was captivated. Brilliant performance!
They did so well !!
Both of them deserve to be STARS.
They catch my eye , there personality’s inside and out, and have amazing body language. Old souls perfect bodies wow great combo
And the Star who plays the dad is classic , amazing
Nic is an amazing actor, he doesn't have to do anything special on a show like this - hes an actor- who knows what hes still letting go of from roles hes doing now or did
Nicolas is very hotttt 😘 and Cooper is the cutest
The acting by everyone was outstanding.
Cooper Koch's one-take scene in episode 5 as Erik Menendez? Unreal. I had to hit up everyone after watching it. Total jaw-drop moment. 🔥
Cooper comes across as very genuine, kind person. The way he smiling the entire video while the other one looks annoyed...
I admire how vocal he is about his support for the brothers, He's a REAL one for sure, what a sweetheart.
support for killers? how sweet
Why ? Nicholas gets all the hate and you hope he smiles, plus he's shy and anxious who wouldn't be, this is his first real series and he's still young. You're still here to judge and admire cooper for his smile but criticize Nicholas because he doesn't. He wants to move on like all actors do. He's not the first to seem serious so what's bothering you. We saw that he smiles when he feels comfortable plus he's so sweet.
@@kernevxf_ Really weird how so many different accounts are all parroting the same frankly weird three talking points like how young he is, or how he had a backlash, or how this is his first real role, like as if any of that explains why he comes across so negatively here or why it sounds like he’s insulting Cooper Koch for visiting them in prison. Literally anyone who either simply praises Cooper or mentions how Nicholas seems off here gets the same response…
@@notmyrealaccount8564 The weird thing is always having to comment on Nicholas' appearance and always praising Cooper just because he smiles. Why would Nicholas have to smile? Just to please you ? You're just so insensitive, these are his first real interviews and he was uncomfortable and you just have to make it even more uncomfortable with hateful comments, it's pathetic and you complain that we try to defend him when you are wrong? Hypocrite, in addition he is quite right not to agree to the visit, the brothers found this disrespectful.
@@kernevxf_ I agree with you on not commenting on appearance etc but as for the rest, you can’t really blame anyone for saying something here. It’s a talk show with people talking about the show and only one seems willing to do that and the other comes across as almost insulting to the other. It’s only you that seems to be coming out with a lot of unrelated rubbish in defence of someone who really doesn’t need the defence. Celebs going on a talk show to talk about a show that is based on real people should be able to do just that. If they can’t then be prepared for discussion in the comments and if they can’t handle that then they probably shouldn’t even bother going on a show like that in the first place.
They deserve the Emmy
They both need to win Emmys despite the controversy
Cooper was cute and always smiling and Nicholas was so serious 😭
He’s prob just concentrating
He was nervous and shy, that's normal.
Just like in the series.
Incredible actors and performances! Well done, I was glued to the screen!
Is Nicholas alright? He looks as if he didn't want to be there while Cooper was all smile and playful!
he seem to be under a lot of stress
He just fired his stylist for sending him out there in blue jeans, white socks and black shoes. He was still angry.
@@ross23233Wouldn’t you be if some old guy said you weren’t even “born yet” as if he knows everything.
He might be tired or anxious or nervous. Calm down
I think he is drained tbh he was filming 2 shows at the same time, plus all the interviews, maybe playing lyle was tough on him
Amazing actors and the actress playing their lawyer was fantastic
We are all familiar with Javier-a superb actor. But I never heard about Cooper Koch or N. A. Chavez. I've been watching the Netflix series now and am in awe of their performances. Great job!!!
Their performance was amazing in this show
What is up with Nicholas? He shut down the question of connecting with Lyle REALLY QUICK, which I understand (although I respect Cooper Koch for his outreach more). However, for the remainder of the segment, Nicholas didn't smile or have any emotions whatsoever. Granted, he wasn't impolite, but it was odd that he just stared with dead eyes for most of the interview.
It seems there’s something going on, he’s obviously not happy.
Yeah, there might be more to the story that he doesn’t want to say. Maybe Lyle was the one that doesn’t want to meet him. Or might be an awkward experience considering how Lyle was portrayed on the series.
Yes, I noticed the same. It feels like it might have something to do with Cooper....that's my raw pov. Something happened backstage.
maybe because he is being interviewed about a show about two killers?
This is how Nicholas is though. He is a naturally reserved person and it is clear some of the criticism has bothered him. He is still really new to all of this and needs to be advised better on how to deal with the media. I used to be in media so I see it - he’s uncomfortable in general.
i love cooper so muchhh, he's such a sweetheart! i love the fact he had met erik and he believes him. this is really important.
Cooper is a cute baby... his smile is everything
These actors did a fantastic job 👏🏻 I love that they were able to dig deep to show the pain we can only imagine Lyle & Erik went through. Their story DESERVES and NEEDS to be told. Watch it yourself to find out who the real Monsters are in the Menendez brothers case
cooper is so cute😭😭
I just finished the show , excellent. Javier phenomenal actor and Cooper and Nicolas were also amazing in the show. It’s a controversial topic , they’ll be many opinions but one undeniable opinion, is that the actors went above and beyond ! 5/5 stars ❤
I love how coop is so smiley
I’ve just seen the series. I must say It’s been a long time I didn’t see a series where there’s an ensemble of exceptional actors. From main to support to featured extras, All brilliant! They made the show the more interesting and chillingly special. Bravo!
I love cooper’s deep voice 💕
So much respect and love for the brothers, yes, they poured all their love into their story, such a lovely tribute 💕💕💕
Their acting is was seriously phenomenal, incredible incredible talented men.
Cooper is all smiles and giggles. Such a cutie!
Nick said he don’t wanna meet them people 😂
and he shouldn't.
I don't blame him. He is an actor and wants to do his role and move on lol.
Why is nicholas so serious today😂😂😂
I’ve seen some other interviews with him. He does come across as a serious guy. Maybe he is naturally reserved.
NAC is not a big social guy, so he tried to be as reserved as he can, he does not like a whole lot of attention
He seems a little hurt. I guess it has something to do with Erik’s statement and a backlash from public all regarding Lyle’s character in the show. I actually feel bad for him, show runners basically set him up with that writing
Nicholas got a lot of heat on his social media, his agent probably has told him to be neutral with his comments
@@gwendee5070 hey, I’m not on social media, what heat did he receive? And also, every series that has come out on Netflix has received mixed reviews, but have all managed to be in the top 5 for viewership??? I wish people would just watch and keep the comments to themselves, all of the actors did a phenomenal job, copper and nac were chosen out of 500 actors internationally. That is huge. I am a Nicholas fan and I know he is working really hard to build his career just like everyone else.
I don't care what people think of the actual series, these actors are so good. It isn't a documentary.
Shame it’s made by someone who’s morally bankrupt
You have no morals if you defend this series, they turned a tragic real story that involves child abuse and turned it into a sexualized incestuous fanfiction full of lies
@@Sam_Martyn i believe most of Hollywood is morally corrupt.
@@Blue-dc3rh also, did you watch the series? I bet you did. You supported it by giving it your time regardless of your own "morals"
@@Blue-dc3rhdidn't like that part of it. Ryan should have shown their close relationship asa trauma bond. I did enjoy the series though.
Cooper really looks a sweet and friendly guy. The way he was smiling the whole time in this interview melts my heart! And also I'm glad Cooper believes the Menendez brothers and also support them. Also meeting them in jail is also very kind of him. I'm a new fan of Cooper haha!
Cooper has such a beautiful smile ❤️
Great actors!! Loved every bit of their outstanding performance 👏
Nicholas cut right through this phony interview. Respect.
YES 🙌
Greatness in one frame. Such a treat!!!! All three carry out such phenomenal job portraying each one’s character.. 🤯 🙇♀️❤🫡👏👏
They all deserve awards
I’m sure they will be nominated for Emmys and Golden Globes.
All the actors are fabulous in this!!!
Nicholas Chavez is such a great and passionate actor!
Cooper Is So Humble N Happy
Those boys are both VERY talented. I was sold watching their performances and din't think I would. Particularly Eric. Wow 🥲
Cooper looks like such a sweet guy!
This interview was so interesting to watch! It was superficial but so revealing at the same time. Javier talks about his role in this project like a true seasoned professional. Cooper is a newcomer and it shows. He's almost giddy and talks excitedly about meeting the Menendez brothers with Kim Kardashian (I love the guy and he's a great actor). Then there's poor Nicholas, who is more than ready to move on from this project and doesn't even bother to hide that fact. Such contrasts! Loved it!
God, I still remember the trial when it aired on TV. It was everywhere.
i love the family in the background at 3:30 saying hi!!
I just love Coopee ❤ always smiling and being nice 😊
Loved it! About to rewatch
All I can say is, thank god cooper does not have socials because I would be stalking him 24/7. His smile just gives me fuzzy feelings 😊
He has a boyfriend.
@@deborahhoopes9428 of course he does
@@deborahhoopes9428aah.. so that explains why! I mean it was a tad bit easier to play Erik ..
They all nailed it!! Kudos!!
Cooper blew me away in this series. Great acting.
These actors was phenomenal in that scenes series. Congrats 👏🏾
Cooper has a really good approach to this. Empathetic and humble. That's the right way to do it.
The whole cast is fantastic!
Nicholas was great... very professional about a very serious issue 😊
Agreed
Terrific acting and a powerful message we all need to,listen to.
I miss Nic on General Hospital. For this interview I wish someone, either staff or himself, had styled his hair in a more becoming way. He is so handsome, and has a great great smile. Possibly he wasn't really so comfortable in this job when he got into it. I know I can't watch it. It really happened. That makes it more, much more, disturbing.
I can’t watch it either. I wish they just did a new story with maybe influences from the actual story. People would have received it better.
Cooper, you deserve the absolute best in your career. I adore how he is supportive of the brothers ❤️ the whole cast did fantastic but really impressed with him
