Y&R: March 2024 Discussion Thread
It's incredible, most writers would kill to have both EP and HW credit, less hoops to jump through and etc. but with Josh he's failing miserably bc it seems like he can't execute his own stories yet he controls production and the day to day writing.

BTG: History, Behind the Scenes Articles & Photos
I think CBS is taking note of the success (at least talk wise/watercooler discussions) of shows that are centered around African Americans. BMF, All American, heck even Tyler Perry produced written shows such as The Oval and All The Queen's Men; they all have an audience of sorts, one that every now and then are vocal online and social media. I think creating a black daytime soap, while surprising, when you look at the big picture it makes sense.

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
It's at a alright place at the moment; though compared to last year it's been better. The show still has it's high points. I'd say delve into it.

Ratings From the 90's
I watched a few episodes from Spring of 93 to fall 93, it was still good.

Guiding Light Discussion Thread
I wonder if some of that can be chalked up to the exit of Harley Venton's character, Derek Colby? From some of the summaries of GL in 1982 but I can't help but to think Marland had major plans for the character and perhaps Derek and Vanessa were going to be endgame had Marland continued writing for the show (and the show had kept on Derek's character). Pairing up Vanessa's firery vixen character with the straight laced and by the book Derek Colby would've gained quite the following I imagine.

Nice to see DAYS gaining momentum. OLTL is also a force to be reckoned with as well.

I wonder what the parallels if any of the ups and downs of ATWT and it having an affect on GL's ratings.

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
Absolutely gripping episode. There's not much more I can say about about the Feb. 14th episode, that hasn't been said already. I loved the added depth to Gina and Anna's relationship with the discussion of colorism. The actors playing Eddie and Gloria are also knocking it out of the park. Colin Salmon has been nothing short of remarkable since his arrival, and EE must do everything in its power to keep him for a long time. I even tolerated Elaine's character who tends to be theatrical during much of her screen time. Great work to the EE production, writing, and cast for airing such a moving episode.

The Politics Thread
Someone pointed out that ever being caught off guard in 2016, it's obvious that pollsters have been oversampling Republican's ever since.

Since taking over I do admire how Chris Clenshaw has catapulted Diane Parish to the forefront of the show; she never fails to deliver.
