Re Calla/Jessie/Simon
In addition to what's been mentioned I think the fact that they were more new characters being thrust on the viewer. It had just gotten to be too much. There were virtually no characters left from just a few years before.
That is not a recipe for viewer loyalty. New characters have to be introduced slowly and attached to known favorites. There are exceptions of course but overall that is the most sensible course to take.

GH: April 2026 Discussion Thread

It's difficult because there was a lot of rehab that needed to go into Lucky's character for him to be viable for Liz. He was basically written as a deadbeat dad for a decade. I think it's a tough challenge for these writers to give any nuance to Lucky. He has Luke's wandering/restless streak, but Laura's heart and it doesn't seem like they could balance that well? That's not an excuse. It seems like a writing failure and Frank didn't care enough to change course for Lucky. I assume JJ wanted Lucky to have that redemption and it was half hearted at best and dropped for long periods at worst.

The whole baby thing was super obnoxious and I know it's leading somewhere, but Alex was extremely accommodating to her. Telling her he'd take Trey out so she could sleep, he would care for him, and drop him back off with Chanel. He wasn't currently trying to force her to have kids because he was babysitting for 2 hours lol.

LATEST DEMO RATINGS: March 30 - April 3, 2026

BTG being 0.2 behind Y&R in the 18-49 demo for Weds/Thurs and then only 0.1 behind them on Friday makes me extremely happy!! I wonder if this had any impact on the renewal. I can't wait to see them pass Y&R. I think it's only a matter of time.

It's funny, I was thinking about this recently. Did they EVER say anything specific about Beth's biological father? I had assumed Lillian was widowed. I always thought it was odd that Beth kept the name "Raines." I wouldn't keep the name of the creep who raped me. Now the implication is Lillian was an unwed mother. Does anyone remember anything about that?
Someone decided they should try to create a storyline similar to the Beth/Phillip/India triangle. They made India once again look totally pathetic because the only way she could get a man was to blackmail him. I'm surprised MKA stayed on the show as long as she did.
I couldn't stand Calla and used to blame Lisby Larson, until I watched some Texas episodes, and thought, dang, she's actually a pretty good actress. The character was poorly written. No way would I believe that Ross preferred Calla over Vanessa.

Same. Stephanie is actually rehabbing Alex's character. Lock her in Marlena's office and don't let her out.

Knots Landing

I was looking at the ratings for the two part 1997 mini series, and while it wasn't a huge success compared to Dallas (mostly because it was too soon and they had tied up all of the loose ends before going off the air), I was surprised that the ratings for each night were decent.
Part 1 came on a strong 2nd place on Wednesday night opposite Drew Carey Show & Ellen (this episode was the follow up episode after coming out of the closet), and it improved on the regular programming on CBS at the time (Wednesday Night Movie).
Part 2 came on Friday night with lower ratings than the first part. And while it was a decline, compared to the average ratings for programming on that night.. the ratings kind of improved (two weeks previous was the Dukes of Hazard reunion movie and it scored better ratings than KL.. probably because Dukes of Hazard was on Friday nights traditionally while KL was a Thursday night show).
So while it wasn't as successful as hoped, considering that they were coming back within a few years of ending... the ratings were decent, but it might have worked better as just a two hour movie instead of four hour mini-series..imho.

GH: Former AMC actor joins show....

imo, he didn't. This was a topic of discussion with me and my sister - it seems like Lucas didn't care about Marco (Adrian Anchondo otoh was REALLY trying his best to sell it, but what can you do when your on-screen partner gives nothing?) so when he died everything felt pretty hollow. The "great love" they were trying to gaslight us into believing they shred was pretty one-sided. lol
