ALL: End of an Era: Are Daytime Soaps Washing Away?
Going back to 2012 when we were down to 4 soaps and the future looking shaky for both GH and DAYS, I don't think anyone on this board thought any of the shows would be left by 2024, yet here we are. Are they quality shows? Ehhhhh.... but they're here. I'm hoping The Gates will be a success and a kick in the butt for the other current shows to step up their game in quality content. Stay tuned...

From what Bravo promoted, Potomac and Beverly Hills should be the next ones to return. No word on Atlanta. Ah yes, RHOA & RHOBH premiering around the same time, sometimes the same week. The good ol' days... hubby and I recently re-watched the very first episodes of Beverly Hills, and later the table flip and first Posche fashion show of New Jersey, and everything just felt more real. Yes, there's always producer manipulation, but the nitty gritty emotions just felt more real and there were family interactions that felt so much more organic. It's like re-watching your favorite soap opera during its good era.

Playing devil's advocate here: Is Stephanie Cameron still in the industry? She's no Meryl Streep, but she's a familiar face in the role... And who amongst us hasn't secretly held out hope they'd finally bring back Peter Blake to the fold? I liked Cady McClain as Dixie and I know she's a daytime veteran, but her Jennifer is so frazzled and erratic. It's not cute.

It's so weird. It's not like it's 1996. There's no reason for B&B to try and emulate DAYS. However, at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they started going down that route of re-using old actors in new or recast roles. Just you wait: Phoebe will be resurrected so JMW can play a dual role. Or perhaps Taylor actually had triplets....

LOL Mary's back. She's so delightfully awful. I'm not really a ride or die for anyone on this show, so I have no problem with Heather taking center flake, earned with her line delivery from last season. Let's see who hates who this year.

GL #1 and DAYS #2? I'll take it I was worried at first they left GL off the list, only to find out they saved it for the top spot.

I've *never* liked Alexis and she's even worse now. Indeed, her antics reeks of thirstiness for having a reality TV "moment." She's not clever or cute; she's just a hypocritical Christian behaving in a non-Christian manner. I can't wait to see it implode in her face so we can push her out again and never see her again. [Side note: Why couldn't they keep Taylor Armstrong around?] Tamra always pushes too hard, doing the reality TV moment thing by being too vicious with Shannon's drinking problem (and it is a problem). If you truly care about this woman's well-being, all this should be done off-camera, just as OG RHONY have tried [and failed] to reign in Sonja Morgan. Talk to her one-on-one or stage an intervention, but no, Tamra does the reality TV thing instead. She plays the game, but her intentions always look insincere.

Watching this mess and seeing the divided seating, I would be happy if they finally cut their OG along with her sloppy sidekick Jenn Aydin, drop jittery Jackie altogether, and focus on the other table. (Switzerland Dolores can stay too). After all these years, I find myself being Team Melissa even though I side-eye how she joined the show in the first place, but Teresa is just a empty headed monster whom I've grown tired of seeing. But Bravo/Andy refuses to part ways with Teresa, so we'll never get that. It's sad that this particular franchise imploded like this, but Bravo has no one to blame but themselves. The fact they thought this cast could crank out another season shows how shortsighted they are.

Agreed. I have no interest in chasing down random internet interviews and whatnot. Call me old-school, but I prefer the "watercooler" ways of having one show that airs on television that can be dished about afterwards.
