All stereotypical though.

The only reason this is acceptable on PSNS is because JER assumes his readers have a five episode memory span. And every other writer on daytime has brains. And because of this, JER has driven away fans with high standards, leaving the diehard fans who will take anything thrown at them and will love the show unconditionally, even when it does not deliver. All of these threads about PSNS always come down to the 1.5 people left vs. the other 1.0 (being generous) that were driven away by the last four years. And it is because of storylines like this and PSNS not taking itself seriously that it is being canceled. So, the same people who are saying in this thread and in the spoiler thread that it's "Just Passions" and "don't take it so seriously" are the same people who were blaming NBC for the cancelation 5 weeks ago, but maybe they should be blaming the show and JER for putting it in a position to be taken so lightly.

What JER does best.

I disagree that Pash needed to take itself seriously to get renewed. If that means speeding up stories, resolving stories and giving more payoffs, then YES, I'd agree. But the show could have continued to be successful, and built on that cult success, even with just being itself. The show should not have to sacrifice its identity.

The show a lot of us knew and loved already has sacrificed its identity.

Bravo to you, King!

Why applaud that moron for a serious issue WHEN THE SHOW IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY (can't have it both ways), especially on a nonstory from out of nowhere? When Chad was lusting after his sister and buying babies to get her, exactly when did he have time to sneak around with men?

Reilly is the only one with guts to tell the story? Outside of making Chad look like a TOTAL deviant, this is not guts, this is another stunt to shock people into watching. After the reveal, what next? Anyone familiar with Trassions knows that NOTHING happens next. Just onto the next stunt...

And who says you can't have fun with the script while moving the stories and characters along? It's very possible, but Reilly is such a hack that he didn't. And now the show is canceled. HALLELUJAH!

Bring on more today!

Not really. I have been watching since the very first episode, and it makes total sense that Chad would connect with a man in Rome when he thought Whitney was his sister and wasn't giving him what he needed.

A man not getting what he wanted from his woman, ESPECIALLY HIS SISTER, goes to other women...But this is so not the problem.

You don't go from stalking and lusting after your sister to sleeping with men OVERNIGHT...

It's not possible!

again, I disagree. the signs were there. rock/pop music (not rap), choker, OBSESSED with love stories and true love couples -- that was Chad in the beginning. With tight shirts. REALLY tight shirts. And that choker. That choker.

Sexual addiction is a perversion much like incest. IT's about thepleasure, not the person.

Again, I get it. I don't see how it's out of left field.

LMAO

See, I agree.

Some of us seem to be forgetting how gay Chad was in 1999.

He was OBSESSED with getting couples together and blabbing on about "true love" and "feelings." That's partly why a Theresa/Chad fanbase quietly developed. They thought those two would be good for each other, given their obsession with forever love and happy endings.

And let's not forget Chad's obsession with music. And he didn't listen to rap; well, mostly, that is, he listened and knew about top 40 pop radio, which back then, wasn't about hip-hop but alternative and rock songs. That was another smaller hint that just helped add everything up.

And let's not forget that choker he ALWAYS wore. A choker, people.

The signs were always there.

So it's not as far from left-field as some may suggest.

not really I know gay when I see gay and I always knew Chad was gay soo good!!

All stereotypical though.

The signs for Chad being gay were absolutely not there until this summer or until he started screaming "WHITNEY, I did not cheat on with you any WOMAN!" over and over.

I have hated this storyline from the beginning, and the only thing that's making it interesting is the very soapy turn of turning it into a gay Fatal Attraction.

You did read my stereotypical proof and aML's comments backing up that Chad was gay since '99, didn't you?
