Well scince the last time I did this I got mixed result. I did this in April. Now that May has passed and we are in June Grade them! :)

All My Children: A-. Well Greenlee is beaing a total and complete B!tch! Why can't she just stop being so bitter. <_< Its not all about her. But whats bring the show up is Colby/Sean, Jack/Erica, Adam, and even Plamer. Speaking of Palmer we saw him in 3 espisodes and he looks like his health is better! :)

Bold and the Beautiful: B+. Well the storylines are bring stretched just a tad. But overall its been good. Susan should have been nominated. She has been so good!

General Hospital: B

The Young and the Restless: C+. The stories are getting unwatchable and some of the writers are stupid. I am like what are they thinking!!! They need a new head writer!!!!

As the World Turns: F. Right now i can care less about this show

Passions: C. Well Theresa and Ethan are cute!!!

One Life to Live: C-. They are climbing back. Love the hospital bomb. Also loved that some ppl are leaving! :)

DAYS: C+. Well, when was the last time they reached a C+. Like 6 months ago! YAY for DAYS. they are climbing back!!

Guiding Light: F. Sucks

So sad, Im only watching 2 soaps now and contemplating dropping one of them. Here are my grades

AMC - B. I think its pretty solid but way too much Sean/Colby which I find boring. Erica and Jack's story is also boring and the JR/Adam stuff doesnt do anything for me. I do love the Fusion scene and Greenlee's return though.

GH - C- WAY too repetive. Characters say the same crap everyday. Will Liz's baby lie EVER end? Im sick of it. They've ruined the potential of Craig with this Jerry mess. Scott's return has been ruined. Sam's past has dragged on. The best part really is Sonny and Kate and Im enjoying them

Y&R - D: Not even worth my time anymore

Jack/Erica, Sean/Colby, JR/Amanda, and Adam being back to his real self again, makes AMC a

A for me. :mellow:

The rest is a C. There is still too much Lavery and Carey propping and I despise the idea of Tad being with Krystal , another Lily/Jonathan go around or an Ava/Jonathan pairing. I also hate that Greenlee is being written to want Ryan so badly she would even contemplate taking Spike. :blink:

ATWT: D = No me gusta.

AMC: C- = Potential is there. We'll see I guess. Not much going on for it right now, but I have been watching it which is something I have never said about AMC with the exception of a few episodes here and there during the Hayley/Mateo days.

OLTL: C+ = I love OLTL right now. It definitely has it's moments of being...weird. The Starr storyline really sucks at times. There is a lot of dead weight on the show, but they seem to be headed in the right direction...I HOPE.

GL: D = GOD GOD GOD GOD GOD!!!!!! What is going on with this show! Dan of SON fame is right GL is so gone. I am sorry. I know no show can be the same and blah blah blah. But don't give me that crap. When a show loses EVERY detail and sense of identity and only have Raines and Zimmer as reminders...that is SAD. The show is so overtaken by newbies who cannot act but more importantly, their ties to Springfield SUCK or are non-existent. Kreizman, you suck now. You really do. You've run out of steam. Go away!

DAYS: A- = No show is perfect right now, so I am not giving out any flat A's, but it's very good right now. Loving new Stephanie. Loving the Dimera's. Love Tony, Steffy. Love the history cues. The acting is probably the best it has been in a while...as far as the overall cast goes (With the exception of Jeremy.) The casting could be better. It's been on the decline in 2007, but the show is very good right now. It's the best show of the shows I'm watching now.

PSNS: C = It has gotten better for late May and early June, but it's always one step forward, two steps back with this show. ALWAYS. It's pretty on par now though with what it has been the last three years or so, which I guess means it's been average for what the show has become so I gave it a C. The writing is still VERY lazy and uninspired. But there have been some reveals...but again...one step forward...two steps back. The reveals are voided when they lead to nothing and even MORE plot regression. JER has so lost his touch. I was looking forward to an exciting ending summer for PSNS.

Who do you mean here? Ricky Paull Goldin? Gina Tognoni? Beth Ehlers? These are the people in frontburner stories right now outside of the Reva/Josh/Cassie triangle. I don't think they are newbies or bad actors.

As for ties to Springfield, the only character who I think has weak ties to Springfield is Cyrus Foley. But he's getting established with Alexandra and getting her airtime, and he's very charismatic.

    • While I do love the chaotic energy that is Kat vs Lesile, it is a bit extra. Sheltered, virginal Kat who plays it safe from her man to her wardrobe understands that Leslie is dangerous, but she's out here showing up everywhere and anywhere that Lesile is to be found and actively going to places where she is alone? I mean Kat doesn't even act a little afraid or intimidated by Leslie. Meanwhile, big Ole Derek out here begging for his and Ashley's life to Jacob.  As for Dani, I didn't see it that way. Dani and Bill were together for 30 years and shared a family. I believe there was real love there at one point. Bill is still an ass and Dani is still crazy, but realizing she may lose him and her daughter's may lose their dad definitely struck a chord.
    • Funny I randomly saw Kami’s lengthy post about the 44th anniversary of the Walton’s finale last week pop up in my news feed on Facebook. A few inaccuracies to her post but overall it was pretty insightful and interesting to read. 
    • Well, depending on rewrites...Jennifer Richards potentially slept with Brandon and Alan. It does feel like we're forgetting someone, but then again, maybe I'm confusing that with brothers, which would include a lot more.
    • Maybe it’s me, and the fact that RC isn’t at the helm, but since Cwikly and Ford have taken over I’ve noticed the show doing a lot of things differently directing wise, and since the storyline of John’s demise began, the show has been using different scores, and dare I say better ones than this time last year. It’s interesting and I wonder if the any of it is Noel Maxam’s influence before being promoted.
    • I think Nicole is about to figure out what's going on between Andre and Dani.
    • @Efulton thank you. I don't know how I missed it or didn't recall it.  I'll blame amnesia . Anyway @Errol Could the newer thread be merged to the existing? Thanks in advance.
    • I just finished watching and I have to admit, not once did I find myself wondering who wasn't there. Quick question for anyone who followed this better than I did: was it only Andrew who rescued Cat and John from Clyde, or was Shane involved too? The reactions during their scenes today felt a little off to me. I know it was meant to be vague, but I didn't find it strange that they already knew each other.  
    • Yeah, financially, Luna is in better shape than Deacon and Sheila.   -- Scott Clifton must have decided to chew the scenery in every scene of this "Liam is Dying" storyline. Yikes.  
    • If J.R. wasn't busy with Ewing Oil, he'd be a heckuva soap recapper. He was SO gleeful at recapping Jenna-Bobby-Pam when the trio and Mark encountered each other at the Oil Baron's Ball. That being said, Lucy, presumably Sue Ellen and maybe Ray should all know this story, or at least part of it. Lucy was definitely at Southfork during Jenna and Bobby's relationship, and I believe Sue Ellen was about to marry J.R. around the time Jenna jilted Bobby. (Ray might not have given a damn.)
