I also think Frons thought he was right. I don't think he deliberately set out to ruin soaps. He just didn't care. He wants to be right. He wants the pairings he sees as gold, even if the audience doesn't agree. If his vision for GH had succeeded, he'd be happy to leave them on the air. It's just that it's his way or no way.

Looks like it's going to be no way.
