Members RionPassions Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 It was uncalled for, rude, and just plain mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members px780 Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 You make a good point so let's just rationalize it now. Harmony is a small town. Harmony is a magical small town. Harmony is a magical small town and Chad is super-quick in bed, hence Lover (and, later on, Peeper- cause we know that won't make sense either) can be everywhere at once. Or...events in Harmony, while perhaps shown in the same episode, are not intended to suggest simultaneity. Or...evil twin! No wait- Passions doesn't use that. Masks! It was someone else in disguise! Or, y'know, Passions could just go big and make Chad a total ho, so he's got a half dozen lovers out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 31, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 Exactly like that. Good setup, good setup, good setup... then wham. Re-written. Can we say PLOT HOLES? There's no fancy excuse for bad writing. A plot hole is a plot hole no matter how it's painted over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 But you're oversimplifying here. This is not the "seedy" side of black males, as you say. This is the HUMAN side. Frankly, I think it's the most intelligent move the show has made in about two years. This will be incredible, GROUNDBREAKING drama. And King, you're probably bitter because you know it, and you know it's going to rock because this is the shocker THAT will turn heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members King Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 Awww, poor you. You know I have been saying for months now (maybe not 5 months ago in SEPTEMBER) but since November Sweeps at least, that the show was hitting us over the head AS USUAL with the fact Chad is sleeping with a man. Annnnnnd you and Rick want to act now like you're so clever by dragging out posts from September and quoting them, and being all "right," and frankly, it's annoying and childish. At the end of the day, the show is still canceled so I don't even know why I bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 31, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 ...but I'm getting ahead of myself here. I don't know yet how this will play out. I'm willing to bet it'll look just like swiss cheese in the end, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 lol!!! I could totally see JER saying that in an interview with Logan, lol. I love it! After all, he has to explain the inconsistencies -- which WILL happen since they wouldn't have occurred had he stuck with the original plan, and made Jared the lover.

Members RionPassions Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 Brook Kerr will rock these scenes when the revelation comes out. I wonder if this means Chadney are dunzo, or if they will go to marriage counselling or something...I'd prefer to see Chad and Whitney stay together. I've always liked them together, even during the whole incest setback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 Well, then damn that darn Jaresa fanbase, which I was A PART OF, lol. Because somehow, somewhere along the line, Jared became a legitimate companion for Theresa -- and plus, the "Tess" thing was just too cute for words -- and that's why JER backed out of making Jared go "Brokeback."

Members Darn Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 Being on the DL is not progressive thinking, it's backwards and portrays AA males in a negative light. Passions, of all shows, doesn't have the track record or the creativity or the intelligence to portray this with the depth and seriousness it should be handled. There are a handful of black males on daytime TV, half of them are thugs or former thugs and treated like crap by their respective towns, the others are glorified extras. If I could point to one other positive example of a black male on Passions I would have less issues with this. The idea that the man who has had a rape victim repeatedly attacked almost daily since her rape can do this with any sensitivity is laughable.

Members JER Soaps Fan Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 You "bother" to piss us off. You keep bringing up the "canceled" thing to insult us and/or hurt us. THe point is, IT'S WRONG to do that. So stop it. We're enjoying the show, we're enjoying the twists, and IT AIN'T OVER YET. so let's watch it in PEACE, please.
