German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
https://www.mannheim24.de/promi-show/sturm-liebe-staffel-ard-traumpaar-paul-josie-schauspieler-tv-rueckkehr-91090093.html Sandro Kirtzel returns as Paul Lindbergh! He will be the main lead of the new couple. He was on Sturm der Liebe from 2017 to 2020.. I'm so happy about it. I always liked Sandro as Paul. Rote Rosen-Exit; Gerry Hungbauer as Thomas Jansen out! He got fired a couple of weeks ago. He was one of the last original cast member of the show.. At least they brought back his daughter Jule Jansen played by Kim-Sarah Brandt. She was in that show for the first couple of years and returned serval times down the line.

German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
I tried to get into 'Unter Uns' again but damn.. That show feels so dead. I enjoyed Jennifer Turners return for the 6666th Episode in August. She was one of the original characters in the first few years like 1994 to 1998. Rolf and his return for a week was really exciting but otherwise there is nothing going on. Easys break for a couple of weeks gave Ringo something else to do and i enjoy the Ringo/Easy plot with their adoptive son but the rest of the show is boring as hell. I was concerned when i heard that they are going to bring back Chris/Corinna. They were my favorite super couple of Unter Uns. I kinda like the recasts but the writers have no clue what to do with them. The rape story of Vivien was really good but they ruined it with the stupid dragging. Unter Uns is a great example for a show that should've been ended a long time ago tbh.

All : Storyline risks that didn't pay off.
That weird Irina Story on General Hospital in 2011 or 2010. That gave Helena a weird daughter just to kill her off. I don't know why they tried to go all in and gave that evil twisted Helena a daughter just to kill her off? Tinas return story in 2008 on OLTL. Great idea to tie Tina into the 40th anniversary but it just didn't worked out the way they hoped for tbh.

Unpopular opinions: cancelled soaps edition
But i do loved Shawn-Douglas being on to Marlena for a while during the Salem Stalker Storyline.. I wonder what would've happened if they didn't turned it into the Melaswen BS and made Marlena a psycho after all. I mean her sister Samantha was quiet psycho herself if i remember correctly. Victors death was hilarious during that time and Abe and Jack came really off guard. Dougs death made me the most upset with Alice Horton.

Dianes exit was well made considering in what state this show is in What a shame to see her go though

Unpopular opinions: cancelled soaps edition
i think Sunset Beach was a great show overall and the Terror Island Storyline will forever be one of my favorite storylines from the 90's.. Unpopular Opinion but i would rather watch Sunset Beach than Passions. Passions dragged way more than SB

Emmerdale: Discussion Thread
YEAH AND new 'shocking and dark' scenes from Kerry will air soon coz the actress returns from her maternity leave... Ugh... Dark dark dark.. shocking shocking shocking.. I love Emmerdale but even i am getting frustrated with those scriptwriters. They got rid of writers and producers on ED/OAKS/CORRIE.. Why do they keep them from ED..

Unpopular opinions: cancelled soaps edition
I have loved Terry Lester's Jack so much.. It was a shame that in 1986 when Nikki/Jack were a thing it got ruined with Victor/Ashley's affair and her cancer (was it cancer? I don't remember but she was ill and Victor stayed with her) and the 'WHO SHOT JILL'-Story where Jack was accused of attempted murder.

Coronation Street: Discussion Thread
OF COURSE it had to be Johnny.. Sorry but this was the most obvious one to die.. I mean he had deep conversations all week and got way more screentime as before again.. That was such a give away tbh. I feel sorry for him. I loved Aidan Connor and Kate with Rana...Johnny was hit or miss. He was nothing special but so damn likeable. i don't share much personal stuff about me but when Aidan killed himself in 2018 it hit hard coz i was going through an heavy time mysellf and that story was relatable. But to see the aftermath and especially Johnny broke my heart and made me realize that life's too short to give up and to be upset.. Aidans death made me love Johnnys character more but the way Jenny treated him was lazy writing on the writers part.. Shame he's gone too. I still wait to hear if it was his own choice or if he was let go coz his farewell video looked etremely forced tbh

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
i rewatched Kush's exit.. Poor fella left EastEnders for Holby City and BBC pulled the trigger on HC and axed it after the current season in 2022 Imagine leaving a show for another just to end up jobless after the current season.

B&B: Bold from the beginning
I would give everything to watch Y&R from the beginning.. Not just because of the Brooks/Foster stuff. I would really love to see my girl Brenda Dickson as Jill in that Katherine/Philip storyline from 1974/75. And i would give everything to see David Hasselhoff as Snapper and Casey. I always wondered if the Logans from BB were quiet inspired by the Fosters from Y&R.. Brooke always came off like Jill in those early episodes of BB

Its not a cancelled show but it's about an unpopular opinion about Y&R: I always thought Jack and Nikki should've been a proper couple. They would've been more dynamite and a power couple than Victor and Nikki tbh.

German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
@Huntress I loved Kai. He was one of the greatest characters and one of the most hilarious ones. I am still thankful that the producers promoted him from reccuring to contract after that summer 98 story with Alex and his shady friends. Kai & Marie were cute. Moritz/Kai Bromance was so hilarious and entertaining. That made Kais death even sadder. Kais death was one of the best and most devasting deaths of the entire show. Only Character i hated was Sandra. I hated the first actress and the recast made it even worse. The producer really tried to throw that character like every day of the week at the audience. Inka turning psycho made completley sense after what she went through. Flo/Martin were no Flo/Andy. Thats for sure. But i enjoyed the time when Flo was lost and Martin went looking for her. 2001 was really an annoying year of GZSZ. Only Leons return was memorable and his affair with Cora. But i liked Flos return and happy end with Martin to be honest, I loved Nadine Dehmel as Nataly.. She was one of my ultimate favorites. I still hate the fact that they fired her. I mean she and Ricky were my ultimate super couple of GZSZ from the 90's. I always hoped Ricky would turn up. I remember that everyone suspected that Ricky would turn up in the shows 2000th Episode. There was even a rumor he would return when Nataly was exiting the show. But i enjoyed her final storyline. I enjoyed GZSZ from 1996 to 2004. (1992 - 1995 were alright but the acting was hard to overlook sometimes. But it had its own charme to be honest.).. 2004-05 was another weird year. Only Philip and that subway running with his friends was great. But that Lena Bachmann character ruined the mood for me especially after she won that million dollar and that shady character tried to steal it from her for weeks. Xenia.. A Character i couldn't stand. The chemistry with Chris was OK.. But i never cared for their storyline. It didn't even made sense that Chris wasn't able to read coz he was a delivery boy or something and had to know where to deliver the mail. Completley bs that all of the sudden he couldn't read. But i Xenia started to grow on me when Ben Bachmann appeared. The Ben/Xenia storyline was one of my favorites until the break up. Gerner was involved in the Katja/Barbara story.. A year later Gerner got involved with Nataly after Barbara run her over. I mean a Gerner/Nataly pairing was the most surprising pairing i would've expected and when Nataly gained back her memorie her revenge was so satisfying. Clemens had this story going on with Anna and after that he started gambling and nearly lost it all. Daniel and Elizabeth had her breast cancer story going on.

Onscreen all the time and we liked it
GH during the early 80's: Alan, Monica, Rick and Leslie. They were heavily on air most of the time and i always enjoyed them. Especially Alan! Even if he would just walk by and smile or say hello i would be fine with it Alan will always be my favorite character of GH On B&B: Ron Moss as Ridge. People bash him for no reason these days even though he helped to make this show popular internationally. I never minded seeing him and enjoyed his chemistry with the other cast members

German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
What??? GZSZ 1999 to 2001 was the worst? I love different opinions but that is some weird opinion. It was quiet the most popular time. I mean the vets like Clemens, Daniel, Elisabeth, Jo Gerner, Barbara were heavily involved. 1999 was one of my favorite years when Leon Moreno hooked up with a women from a MOB Boss. That dude made Leons life a living hell. One of my favorite storylines. And the Andy Lehmann Story when he was in that cult. And Gerner and Barbara driving Katja Wettstein crazy. Or in 2000 when Barbara kidnapped Nico and Coras child. The show didn't had that much teenager. Only Marie, Kai, Moritz, Sandra.. All the others were in their early-mid 20's through 50's. It was quiet balanced when it comes down to the age. We had much more Teenage/Youth Story during rhe 2010's tbh

Unpopular Opinion but i think Laura is not really needed anymore on GH! Her time's up tbh. ATWT's final 4 to 5 years weren't as bad as people make them out to be. I think there such amazing storylines going on and still had some of his old charme. Don't know why this gets so much hate but a campy ass final years of OLTL gets praised as hell Biggest unpopular opinion: I didn't minded that cheap camera look of Guiding Light! Of course it wasn't as great as before but it was alright

Hollyoaks: Discussion Thread
What to the actual hell? Warrens stint from 2010-2011 was one of his best.. The Brendan Brady/Warren Fox stuff was legendary, him being with Mitzeee and stuff. Only downfall was that the writer closed the door for my beloved Louise to return. He took Mitzee to the place where he buried her after killing her. That was so stupid from the writers. 2010-11 in general was one of the best years from Oaks.. Brendan Brady/Warren Fox.. The hilarious Mitzeee that got character developement.. SILAS Blisset! Nuff said. The Costellos, The axing of unneeded characters like Stephs unneeded brother Jake, Zak, Micaela, Eliot and so on. I don't watch Hollyoaks that often anymore coz it became so dumb again like a few years ago. Peris stalker story has to be the most obvious plot device in keeping Juliette and her apart that i have ever seen.

Emmerdale: Discussion Thread
There are rumors of a Tripple Exit.. One in the murder week.. Diane leaving (Rumor has it that she may take Gaby or Bernice with her or Rodney) Tracy is gone on maternity leave right now. Andrea will leave the show too on maternity leave (Some speculate that she might die during the murder week or just leave like this) I think Rodney is not needed anymore.. The new Vicar/Priest or whatever he calls himself Charles, Wendy the self named nurse, Herriet and like 40% of the cast could get rid of without any fan missing them. All newbies are like fresh from acting school . I like that Emmerdale tries to get them a space to perform and get some practice on acting but damn. Those newbies are so bad. How could some of them pass acting school. Thats why i defend Paige/Meena. She is fresh from acting school before she joined ED and is paying the psycho perfect for her first real gig. Probs on her. They have the legendary Kim Tate and they just don't know what to do with her. I like the Paddy/Kim story coz both are vets from the 90's and i love oldies interacting with each other. Last time Kim was really intriguing and the best of the best was with Graham/Joe/Jamie. But the Gabby plot has run it's course with Jamie being 'dead'

Emmerdale: Discussion Thread
I wish they would show more animals and farming like back in the day.. Even if its just on Radio but 'The Archers' is doing just an amazing job with that. Emmerdale is my number 1 UK Show. I kinda love Meena. The only issue i have right now is the balance and continuity of storys. Too much going on at once. We have the Liv alcoholism story,Meena-David-Victoria + Murder plot, Tracy and her Baby stuff, The Whoolpack Story of Chaz + Marlon, Aprils bullying, that weird Wendy + Russel money plot that no one asked for, Belles mental illness that pops up whenever they realise that the actress is still on a payroll, Jamie+Kim + Gaby etc. Sometimes u dont see a character for a whole month. Thats way to uneven.. Hell even Meena was gone for like 3 weeks by now and people complain that she is on every day.

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
Huh? It wasn't just a rumor that Maisie was leaving.. She promoted her move to the States way before Covid-19. lmao I was surprised that she stayed until the end of 2021.. She will be another one of those who will end up back in the UK and if its not back with EE she will be on Oaks or Corrie

Emmerdale: Discussion Thread
I miss the Sudgens being the frontburner.. Thats why i enjoy everything i get out of the Victoria Sudgen Character. I miss the Tates too. I hope Jamie ain't dead and will pop up again. There is no confirmation that the actor is through with the show.. I don't get the hate the actor or the Jamie character gets. I enjoyed his last episode and the way he tried to flee with Dawn. Dawn + Jamie belong together. People complain about the lack of humor or comedy in this show but i think thats nonsense. The Jigsaw date of Diane, the irish banter between Bernice and MacKenzie and so on. Aprils bullying story really touched my heart in the last couple of weeks and i feel kinda sorry for Bob and April in this.

The Bold and the Beautiful: Ridge/Brooke/Taylor.. Bro they were nearly in every freaking episode (besides Taylors 6 month exit in 1994) and most fans were addicted and invested in that triangle. Who really ate as much screentime and was frontburner her entire run like Susan Lucci on AMC was Kelly Ripa as Hayley Vaughan! But i loved every second of it especially when Mateo came into the show. And Sarah Michelle Gellar as Kendall Hart was overkill too when it came to screentime but we all seem to have liked and loved it... or maybe it was just me
