B&B-D

Way too much Taylor. Nick is slowing being ruined by the pairing, way too much Phoebe and Rick. Bridge is boring, and the worst thing to happen to Brooke in years.

Days-D

Way too much Shawn and Bell (they rank as one of the most boring couples ever). Way too much Patch and Kayla (sorry not working for me this time). And the show is just plain boring.

quality wise the show is great,the best it's been in years.balance? not so much.they should also stop doing things of screen and show us stuff that can be good - Marlena's reaction to things,Abe's reaction to finding out lexie dissapered etc. while the show was good,it was boring good..hopefully march will be a whole lot better.

No balance, pacing is way off, storylines are poorly planned and horribly executed, little continuity, characters that should be big parts of the story are no where to be seen. So many great opportuniteies pop up and they're wasted.

General Hospital: A-

I only started watching last November...there's a lot of things I don't like but there's something about this show. I love it. February was a great month...the hostage crisis was so exciting, the characters had great, emotional, realistic reactions to what was going on, Alan's death had me crying and I barely "know" him, Robin getting shot, Patrick's reaction and the aftermath was amazing - intense, scary, and truly romantic. The minus is for Jason - it was bizarre how everyone in the hotel was "OH, Jason will save us!" But since I started watching I just can't get that character...I don't see the appeal.

I wonder if the surrogate thing will switch over to Victor since Bonnie said Victor bailed her out which is completley random that Bonnie would call Victor and he would help her unless she told him about the surrogate and he is going to start paying Lauren off or something.

Days: C- For reasons everyone else pointed out.....It amazes me that Hogan and Corday didn't step things up a bit for sweeps....I don't even think we got february sweeps previews this year...Also there was too much Shelle/Phillip/Willow, Nick/Chelsea/Abby, and Steve/Kayla....We need more of Bo/Hope/John/Marlena/Kate, and Sami not having the same conversation she had lost month with EJ and Lucas...

    • All the time they spent trying to make viewers feel sorry for Chad only for him to not even last that long. I wonder if they knew Richard Burgi was going so quickly. You're right about Josie replacing Cheryl. On paper, this should have made sense, given all the ties Josie had to the canvas, but I did prefer Cheryl. There was something very synthetic about Alexandra Wilson. 
    • So true...Hackney might have had a story on FC with Richard being an old lover of his, but reveals herself to be a Cartel member and blackmails Richard with something into doing her dirty work  LOL. But of course Richard had his hands full with the double trouble sisters Ms. Jones and Ms. Braxton that season.

    • Cat herself will be a stumbling block all her own as she vowed to Chad to stay away from him, thus redeeming her of her crime morally. Classic DAYS would have them gazing longingly at each other at Doug's Place or Blondie's, while Liz is serenading the room with a song aptly chosen to represent their feelings of emotional turmoil.
    • From what I just recently watched, they were setting her up to go into future stories. She was Emmy nomination worthy in the material I saw. If some viewers did not like her, the character could have been rehabilitated after that sick storyline. It feels like they destroyed a character for fun and then tossed her to the curb. Spencer had chemistry with everyone. I'm just retroactively angry on Spencer's behalf.  You're right about how Cheryl was often forgotten and pushed aside and I would take Cheryl over Josie. I think soaps need characters like Cheryl. Characters like Josie are way too common. Josie always got on my nerves.
    • CBS was back in third place in 1994/95. That was the season CBS lost NFL broadcasting rights which also cost them several established affiliates in major media markets. 1995 CBS was sold to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. 1995/96 CBS was trying to be young and cool to compete with NBC and Fox, but it was an epic failure and CBS was once again in third place.
    • I tend to think that Chad will actually listen to Jen (this time). And that will be the next stumbling block in their relationship, which will open the possibilities for Cat to seek another member of their love triangle... To iterate my earlier thought, I am also not a fan of the person Melissa Reeves, but the character of Jennifer looks so chic this week, especially in comparison to Hope (and Gabi).  That blunt haircut is a winner.   
    • I think Cheryl was essentially replaced by Josie, and it seems likely that Lemay wanted to bring the Frames back into the picture and for a variety of reasons that it would be McKinnons who would make way for them. Cheryl didn't really get many layers -- she was pretty and kind and sweet and faded into the background so that Scott could participate in the AIDS storyline with Dawn. Looking at the AWHP, other than (not very) shockingly being in love with her mother's adopted son Scott, Cheryl apparently went out with Sam and flirted with much-too-old-for-her John Hudson and MJ's ex-boyfriend/pimp Chad. I know MJ told Mary that she had been a prostitute, but did she tell Cheryl and did she tell anyone about Chad's pimping?   
    • I feel the same way about Melissa Reeves' Jennifer. She just makes the show feel like home by her presence alone. I am perfectly okay with them coming in every once and awhile, which probably fits Reeves' schedule better anyway. Their connections to Salem are still there: JJ, the grandkids, Jack still owning half of The Spectator ... they're perfect recurring characters. All this talk of Jennifer being in the wrong regarding Cat is absurd. Jennifer is not being villainized in any way, shape, or form, she's just being allowed to actually be human, which adds odds to the obstacle of Chad and Cat eventually getting together. All inner conflict. Keep it coming!
    • Hahaha. Jean Hackney, Angelica Nero, and the Falcon Crest henchwomen were all straight out of a James Bond movie.
    • My hunch is what you've described. JFP is likely back working on transitioning the show to a new studio and embracing new technology for its production model.
