Members SlezaksOLTL Posted January 18, 2007 Members Share Posted January 18, 2007 I see slight improvement on this show I hope it continues. I like seeing more balanced airtime especially for vets like Viki, Dorian, Bo, Clint Asa coming back Lindsay on again, Nora soon too, I wish RJ was back though. Do you see an improvement? What else needs to happen? One thing is the pacing of stories, they need to move along more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Q Steph Posted January 18, 2007 Members Share Posted January 18, 2007 It's hard to say. . The stories are lackluster & repetitive. The hsow is heavy handed in its obsession to shove John and Spencer as its centerpieces at the expense of creating a truly ensemble cast. I'd like the show to stop forcing characters that aren't working like Paige and Antonio. I'd like to see Todd/Evangeline and Nash/Jessica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chrishntr Posted January 18, 2007 Members Share Posted January 18, 2007 It's weird, at times I see a difference then the next day it goes back to the same ole stuff. But this is my soap, I can't give up on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 2shane8 Posted January 18, 2007 Members Share Posted January 18, 2007 I think it's fine, and I commend them for making changes. Truthfully, I never had any major problems other than the almost deliberate destruction of Blair and the fans' reaction to it, which is not entirely a fault of the show, and the heavy focus on Antonio, John, Spencer, and Paige while disrespecting Kevin and Kelly. As far as I'm concerned, the problems I had have been rectified, and I am seeing plenty of the people I like. I can't forgive them for what they did to Dan and Heather, but like Christina said, it's my show. I love most of the characters and actors, and it certainly appeals to me more than any other soap opera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members poohbear19 Posted January 18, 2007 Members Share Posted January 18, 2007 You can already see slight changes in the show... and I have a feeling by the summer/fall, if all continues to go in the same direction, the show will start to look like it did back in the days; before the John McBain/Antonio Vega hour (which is the start of the downhill slide for me.)

Members ZaraB Posted January 18, 2007 Members Share Posted January 18, 2007 It is mixed. There is some improvement, but since it had so many problems, it is going to take a long time to fix it - and in fixing some they reate new ones. Pacing is still an issue, but it isn't just slowness. How much can Blair take in a short period of time? Finding she was pregant, falling off the roof, losing the baby, now the heart infection, with a lot in store. It looks laughable even on paper. It doesn't take into account Blair is not exactly at the height of her popularity either. And what is coming up looks like Dena is back to her fascination for the unpalatable. Although they may be giving some older characters more airtime leading into sweeps, many of them suffer from neglect or from the propping they've given to other characters. It's hard to fathom Lindsay setting her cap for Bo right upon breaking up with RJ (without Nora involved somehow). They are still hanging a lot of story on new, untried characters - Tate, Miles, and new Marty. Spencer's impending demise leaves a huge hole. And the balance may shift back post sweeps. It's not like all of ABC Daytime has been changing hugely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
