Coronation Street: Discussion Thread
I’m really proud of the way they handle the “consent” story of Amy. BUT Aaron was the wrong character to chose for that story. I mean we followed him through that annoying Summer-Baby Stuff and saw such a good guy. I know that under influence of alcohol or drugs you are not in your right mind and do things u normally wouldn’t. But this was so unnecessary to ruin Aaron’s character like that. i feel sorry for the actor that he had to keep up months with Summer’s story just to be turned into a rapist !

Neighbours: Discussion Thread
I wonder why they start with 2012… But it was a great year for Neighbours tbh. I really loved Troy, Jade, Kyle

New families that took off and families that didn’t
Spectras on B&B was a genius addition that drove the canvas until Bradley decided they were unworthy of being used.

Y&R: Old Articles
1986… The whole Jill/John divorce was so well written. It got me hooked when I first watched it back in early 2000’s when someone burned them for me on dvd’s. The who shot Jill-story was also a favorite of mine.. Jack Abbott (Terry) was such a gem too for that show. my second favorite year of Y&R is probably 2007. (Please don’t judge me but I was a teen during that time and it got me excited) The whole exit of Dru shocked me to the bones. I liked Colleen’s storylines 2006-2007 John’s Death was the end Of an era. But I do think they handled it well. Nick’s plane crash and return was one of my favorite storylines of all time. I’m a shick fan and when he thought that he was still married to Sharon. Oh my god those feels and goosebumps 🤣

Are soaps in danger of extinction?
I don’t think so. Soaps won’t die. Maybe in the old fashioned way on a daytime/evening line up. But primetime shows getting more and more Serial with the old fashioned style of cliffhanger endings and stuff. Soaps get streamed heavily. i think if the Neighbours return this year on Amazon/ Freeve will be a success then this will lead to a bright future for soaps.

Home and Away: Discussion Thread
Nothing big was going on for the 35th anniversary coz the network stated; They don’t want to show Home and Aways age and stuff. In other words they don’t give a damn about that show being 35 years on the air. As long as it gets good/solid ratings and makes some money it’s all good but don’t expect us to invest for an anniversary. Be thankful it’s still on! I kinda see Neighbours low budget from the 2010’s up until 2022 in a different and more appreciating way now.

Back from the dead - The good, the bad, & the ugly
My favorite will always be Taylor Hayes return from the dead in 1994 as Princess! Frisco on GH in like 88/89-ish if I remember correctly. I also liked Nick Newman’s return from the plane crash in 2007. Brenda on GH in 2002-2003 Greenlee on AMC! Project Orpheus will always be my favorite part of AMC final years worst: Nearly every dead person on Days of our lives! That show killed my interest in back from the dead!

Hollyoaks: Discussion Thread
Currently watching September 2009.. Damn I forgot how annoying that Gaz Bennett guy was. His racist obsession with Anita still makes no sense to me after 13 years. He hated her but wanted to sleep with her in that Forrest house ? Ok? The Roy family was quiet on their way out by that time and I can’t say it was a shame. Only one I miss is Leila. Ravi was weird.. It’s weird that even though it took the writers 1-2 more years before Darren/Nancy got together there were quiet some hints. He was married to Hannah (my favorite female character of all time from the 00’s with Louise) and that Nancy/Darren teasing and bickering was already going on there. I don’t know if they already planned something there but there has always been something going on with some teasing and bickering. I looked back at all of Darren’s women… The best one out of all was and is still Hannah. I wish Emma would return to that show as Hannah Ashworth!

Brookside, Crossroads, Take The High Road and General Hospital Will Be Able To Watch On BritBox UK
Brooke side gets repeated from the beginning on STV Player… Even the press reported about it. I’m quiet surprised that they are making such a big deal about some repeats. They didn’t so something like this when EasyEnders, Corrie, ED started repeats on Drama Channel. I think there is something bigger going on

Shortland Street
The 5 weeks later Kinda ruined the mood tbh. But it was a solid season premiere OH MY GOD! The old faces: Sass, Kat and Brooke! That weird Bright Shine speech on television was too much. I’m so over that plot

Hollyoaks: Discussion Thread
That fool Ethan! As much as I like Ethan by now he is back to his hard man attitude.. He can’t wait to see Warren‘s Ashes flush.. I loved it that Warren defended himself and threatened him! We all know Ethan ain’t no match. That dude got threatened by his ex girlfriend and had to kidnapp Darren because business went wrong. He just got out of it coz he killed her. That fool really thinks he can go toe to toe with THE Fox? God please

The View
I feel sorry for Alyssa! Today was another one of those episodes where Joy and Whoopie just wouldn’t give her some screentime. They always tried to shut her down during her sentences! Only time they were quiet was when Chelsea Handler came on! The way they treat Alyssa gives me some Elizabeth Hasselbeck Flashbacks! It’s starting to become a Elizabeth 2.0-scenario!

Romantic chemistry that survived recasts
Amber and Rick from The Bold and the Beautiful! I never really felt Jacob and Adrienne but still liked them. But when Justin took over. Oh hallelujah! They had chemistry! Adam/Chelsea on Y&R! I really liked the first version but with Hartley it was put on to a whole another level!

Thanks! Shame though.. That would be hilarious. I mean Mercedes slept with every men available on this show but Darren even though they are two of the longest in it. Eric‘s 1 hour episode was outstanding!!!

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
That Alfie/Kat-Drama is doing my head in lately. Phil - The big Boss. I can’t take his gangster storylines anymore. Now I get why the Grant actor Ross won’t reprise his role. He knows they would trash his character too. He always says „Never say never“ but I doubt that we will see him anytime soon. Keanu is 1 character I really feel sorry for. That Phil even threatened Karen a few episodes ago with such cruelty to make sure that Keanu stays away otherwise she will see her child buried.. What the actual F?
