Am I the only one that can't stand this character? He has no personality and moody and sulky aswell. A badly written character indeed.

This thread isn't about comparing him with Mason. I don't like Mason either but it's Josh I want to talk about.

I actually really like all the Willis and Turner family!
Not a problem for me!

That really isn't saying much though is it?!?!
Non of the Willis/Turner kids are any good, or interesting characters really.

Josh, Bailey, and Mason are very bad characters. Imogen and Amber are good though.

I miss the female Timmins's. Dylan and Stingray were annoying sh!ts though.

Give Josh a chance. He can improve in future. Having said this, he's much better than Mason as Taylor Glockner cannot act!!

I think they might have hired Harley Bonner because he's the son of Carla Bonner.

My thoughts exactly if you noticed he debut while Steph was back in the show so maybe she talked the bosses into hiring him.

Oh yes a Teenage character that is surly, has mood swings and thinks they are the be all and end all, totally out of "character" for most teenagers in society that is.......

He got the job because his Mum is Carla Bonner.

Carla can act and Steph was a great character and with the departures of Lucas and Vanessa we may see a return one day.

Her real life son cannot act and is only there because of her and his looks

I find the character of Josh to be very watchable and have so far enjoyed his storylines. He is a very 3 dimensial character with different layers, he can be arogant, cocky, funny, caring - the character works well for me and I can almost see a Scott & Charlene type of relationship emerging with Josh and Amber which I can easily see bubbling over for a few years and building up at some point to a big wedding, after a long on/off relationship.

In general Neighbours is at it's best in years thanks to great character development and Josh is part of that...oh an he is cute to boot.

I like Josh. He's shown a bit of character development so far but I think he has a lot of potential, especially with the way I would imagine his storylines are going to go.

I thought he was going to be ok when he started, but lately I find his acting getting worse. I don't think it is just down his character being a whiny little b****h, I think his acting is very limited and he comes across quite wooden.

But people on here tend to slate the acting of some of the Neighbours cast, but compared to the likes of quite a few in Corrie (the only other soap I watch) Josh and the others on Ramsey Street are like Oscar winners!

He's got a very boring and mopey personality. And his parents are not much better. No wonder Imogens got an eating disorder. Living with those three would drive anyone into a mental illness!

Imogen is the only teen I really like. Interesting character played by a good actress. Josh and Amber on the other hand are cland characters, played by poor actors in my opinion.

Agreed, the only teen actors that I like and think can act are Imogen and Baley.

Strangely he doesn't bother me that much. I think though that's because he was introduced along with other poor actors so he doesn't stand out too much and with the horror that is Mason most people look OK.

I think he's a pretty unsympathetic character but if the actor improves and the character is given a chance things migh Improve. The problem will come if they force him to the forefront too quickly (like they have with Mason) as he's not developed enough yet. Being unlikable doesn't neccessarily mean he can't be a good character eventually. I mean Rhys was horrible as was Karl when he joined so it can work out OK.

Josh is an idiot for keeping an unjustifiable grudge against Hudson. Okay, Hudson made a mistake, but he has apologised for it and is really starting to stay clean. The moodiness could just be his personality.

I think he's quite a good character now. He's quite different to all the other young male / teens on the show, given that he's got a goal in life and doesn't let anything stand in the way of that. But I agree it doesn't make him likable all the time.

In order my fave teens are: Imogen, Bailey, Josh, Amber, Callum, Mason.

I like Josh but I don't think he'll be winning an Oscar any time soon! I find Bailey the wettest out of all the new teens.
