November Sweeps: Rate How the Soaps Did

AMC- I want to give the show a F just for Babe having a strangle hold on the show, but I like the Annie/Ryan stuff, so I give them a D-.

Days- B-. Things could have been better. I got so tired of Kayla almost dying, but the Victor and Lumi stuff saved the day for Days, IMO.

GH- B. They would have gotten a better grade if the mob mess wasn't all up and through Laura's return. I loved the Laura s/l, but hated that wedding with a passion.

OLTL- F. I quit watching this show MONTHS ago during the day to watch Days, but I caught bits and pieces of it on SoapNet and thought it was awful at best.

Y&R- B-. Some stuff was good, like the Jill/Kay s/l and the Victor/Jack s/l with sprinkles of Phick thrown into the mix and Lauren heading down the road of PPD. Some was ok like the murder case and the Winters family dealing with their drama. And some was just dreadful. I never want to hear the word reliquery AGAIN.

AMC - C+: I love Babe and Josh, as much as I hate David what he did was a classic Soap Opera move and I loved it. I like Erica and Jeff's budding relationship renewal. I hate that Bianca is back!

OLTL - F- infinity!: I hate CRINGE! I hate joKIE! I hate Rex and Adrianna! I hate what they did to Dan and Heather! I hate that they have forgotten the vets and I hate what they have done to RJ, Lindsey and Nora!

GH - A+: Even though I hated Luke and Laura at the beginning I grew to love them so watching Ms. Francis work her magic with Tony Geary was a treat! I'm in love with Liason, they deserve the a plus all by themselves. I love Sonny and Carly working their way back to each other. I love Skye and Lo! Nancy Lee Grahn is Emmy bound this year or atleast she is thisclose to that nomination. The hate factor is Laniey, the token! I want her to get a love interest atleast. geezeeeeeeeeee

Y&R - A+++: Nothing needs to be said but I will! I love Nick and Phyllis! I love Daniel and Lily (DS)! I love the fact that they are giving the Winters a frontburner story line! Imagine that, black folks can act! Note to Frons, Jim Crow's son.

GL - A++: Together or apart, Joshua and Reva are my heart! I love RN and KZ (another Emmy maybe?). Rick and Mel! Imagine that, an interracial couple does work and guess what they work with problems too. Hello...Note to Jim Crow's son.

DOOL - B: Unpopular opinion incomin'!!!!! I like Steve and Billie! They deserve the B all by themselves. I love Victor being a little evil again but with good reason, his son!

The rest I don't know anything about........

ATWT... C .... it's incorrect to say nothing happened, but once again, ATWT pretty much poo-poohed the idea of sweeps. I'm tired of saying this "could have been great", if only they'd actually played the story they set up (ie, the Katie/Simon reveal) instead of rushing past it to get to something they think is going to be riveting (ie, Katie's revenge-soaked plan to Get Simon.)

B&B... D .... show me a show focused on Taylor's trial, and I'll show you a show that doesn't matter to me. Bridget's quickie miscarriage, the incredibly unsavory Phoebe/what's his name rehash of Thomas/Amber-predator times. The plot-driven take over of Forrester? Puh-leeze.

Y&R, GL....incompletes. Neither held my interest, and a special "jeer" to the Who Killed Carmen mystery episode that was a low-class version of Clue.

:lol:

When I saw that clip I was like HOLY F*CK!!

I mean HOW DUMB can you be to swallow a shot of booze that is STILL lit.

The whole point is to blow the flame out before you put it to your mouth.

I wonder if the guy got burnt pretty bad from that. But when he blew out fire from his mouth and ran straight to the bathroom or kitchen you just KNEW it was bad.

Days B+

Love Lumi, love we're seeing more of Victor, Maggie, Shawn and Caroline. Count me among those that like Steve and Billie. They have more chemistry now than Steve and Kayla. Not too crazy about Shawn and Willow, and Bo gets on my nerves sometimes, bit all in all, much better.

B&B D

Not a regular viewer, but not a fan of Taylor and not happy they killed Darla to saddle Thorne with her. Don't like Brooke leaving Nick for her rapist. Don't like how Bell changes history to suit his current stories. Don't like how Bell brings on all these "big" name actors only to fire them in a month. Sick of incestuous stories. Sick of no romance on the show, and wish they would remember that this show is about fashion, and have a fashion show.

I'm giving DAYS a B+ on Lumi alone. They were only in six episodes together yet all of them were gold. JER had them on nearly every day yet his awful quad was unwatchable at times.

I do think there should have been more plot movement in a Sweeps month, especially in the S&K and B&H stories.

AMC - B - It has improved over September and October for sure - the writers have finally listened to the viewers and trying to get things back to the way they should be (Tad/Dixie...Zendall together).

OLTL - F - I don't even want to talk about it - this show is horrible.

GH - A - I have loved everything during the month - the Luke/Laura thing was amazing (and even though it was a stunt, and I could barely stand watching it bc it was so sad - I liked how they ended it with giving Laura a proper goodbye - makes me change my mind on a few opinions I had on the whole thing in the beginning).

ATWT - D - This show was BORING in November. Way too much of the characters I don't really care about (Dusty and Paul and Jade especially). I haven't enjoyed Adam coming in and acting all holier than thou either. I do like the Lily/Holden thing so far...

DAYS - C - I haven't seen everyday - but from what I have seen - it's ok. I'm enjoying the Phillip storyline - there is a mysterious thing about it I love. Some things have been really boring though - and I actually liked watching Days for the campy storylines - which we're not getting too much of anymore.

I don't watch the other soaps enough to grade fairly.

AMC

F-Only thing I like was JR flying out a window. :)

OLTL

F-I think it was worse than AMC.

GH

B+-Just for Laura returning.

Days

C+- Better writing but nothing really happened.

Passions

Dont watch.

Y&R

B- Started off real good and faded towards the end.

B&B

B-Had a mixed bag of good stuff and not so good.

ATWT

D-The only thing that happened was Katie slept with Simon.

GL

D- Great seeing Marah. Other characters as well. But no storyline grabbed me.

AMC: B I loved the thanksgiving episodes. Alexa Havins has been great the entire month. At first I didn't like the idea that Emma is Ryan's daughter, but I love the direction it has taken with Kendall being jealous that he is spending time with Emma and not Spike.

ATWT: D This show is so off or so on for me and right now it is off. The Lucy/Dusty/Craig stuff is boring! I will be so glad when the mess is over.

B&B: I have been so bored with it lately I havn't even really been watching. I'm about to start watching again when Stephanie has to deal with her mother.

DAYS: B- Has been consistent with all stories. I like Sami and Lucas. EJ is okay. I love Abby/Chelsea scenes especailly with the computer geek.

GH: B+ Loved Luke/Laura. I cried a few times while Laura was talking to her kids. Mob stuff brings it down. Elizabeth has been great too.

GL: B+ Reva and the cancer stuff was good. Lizzie/Jonathan stuff was good.

OLTL: C just average.

PAS: C+ Has been much better lately. I like Lucy and I like that Sheridan is jealous. I can't wait to see evil Sheridan. Love Tabitha and Endora. I'm enjoying Charity/Miguel/Kay/Fox right now. I just WISH! they would have reavealed the tabloid stuff and that Ethan is Little Ethan's father.

Y&R: C It seems like the show has his a speed bump at the moment. I enjoy watching Phyllis and the winters family. I can't wait until VI is there.

B&B

Overall just very good. But I can't even cringe anymore about Brooke&Ridge eternal happiness crap - been there done that a 1000 times. This costs serious points on my grade skale.

Therefore just B+

Y&R

Sigh, a show that once was quality television. It tries to be entertaining and captivating, yet fails on most of these newly self-inflicted standards. The main story about Carmen's murder was pure crap so far (although it got slightly better at the end of last week...) and lots of other things in Genoa City only have one thing in common - they are boring and contrieved storylines leading nowhere.

That said; I LOVED the Kay & Jill & Esther scenes and this is the only good story. Wouldn't it be for those overall talented actors my grade had been even lower. C- and that's generous if you ask me.

Haven't watched DAYS yet and only half of the month of GH which seemed to be a bag full of hits (L&L) and major misses (everything around Jason & friends).

GH A just for my luke and laura

AMC--F...what the heck happened to this show? It's downright TERRIBLE these days. And sadly, not even St. Bianca herself can save it. Just awful writing. And fetus boy is the worst thing to happen to this show ever.

ATWT--C...I'll admit it was not great and farily uneventful, but all the Craig stuff plus the Katie/Simon sex puts it back up for me.

GH--B+...Laura's return was so beautifully done, it almost felt like old GH for a while. I'm also really enjoying Jax & Carly oddly enough and the Alcazar story.

PASS--B...Charity's return, Fancy & Luis together, return of the real Sheridan, Passions has been great. Also thank God we know Little Ethan is Ethan's, now let's just hurry up and wrap up this story.
