^ I'm not saying they are. What i'm saying is that they seem to have a halo over them already, and I think that's going to lead to trouble. I want them to be just what AMC needs. I want them to be the team lead AMC into the next phase of it's wonderful history. Absolutely.

But based on what I'm reading from them, they seem more interested in telling us what Megan did wrong, then what they're going to do right. They need to fix AMC. Not patch it up and move on. If they do, then we'll be no better then we were with Megan at helm. Liket the lastest Spike stuff. That story has sooooooo much potential. And if they use it, they can put AMC back on the map. But frankly, I don't know that I get those vibes from them. I don't know that I trust them not to make the entire thing about GreenMe and a plot point for Rylee. <------- which if it plays out that way, we might as well have just kept Megan around for.

I hope they are everything that people are building them up to be. But until they prove to me that there's a reason for me to trust them, I don't.

AMC had a good 4th of July Espisode. Even though they did not have picnics like other soaps, it was a funny epi. Also thursday and fridays epi were good. On friday we got many of our favorite vets back. If this keeps happening they can and will be able to bring back there ratings. hey last year they did horrible with the whole fertus story, but was able to bounce back earlier this year. They went from a 2.3 to a 2.8.This can happend agian. I have faith in the new writers. You just can't say that it will go down just because you did not like it. You only watched 10 minutes of it. Agian last year the went to 2.8 million viewers to 3.5 million viewers. Thats a huge difference. DAYS gained but it was not as good. I watched this week and agian its better but not good. Its like OLTL, they gained but right now it sucks. Y&R sucks right now with a few esepctions but they gained. Anything can happen in the ratings. A great soaps with geat stories can go down and a bad soaps with bad stories can go up. AMC can do that. With B&E on board they can change AMC for the better. Many people are doubting thme but HEY, they might suprise us. They can bring back AMC to its old self. They can fix AMC even without starting all over. It might take time but you got to give them a chance and you got to give AMC a chance. Just do not say that AMC will lose 100,000 viewers. It can happen but they might gain. Its your opinion. Alot of people like AMC this week. Even though it was Fusion on 4th of July it actually was good. I really do hope that AMC can rise next week!

I am suprised that B&B had no gains. That has a great week last week. I loved the Ridge/Ashley pairing! I really do hope that they can gian.

Its all relative. the ratings for the majority of soaps have been tanking for the past few weeks and continue too. Its no surprise AMC has joined them. Its just the climate unfortunately we are in and most likely will continue to be in. Boo to Y&R still managing to stay above that 4.0 barrier.

Yeah, it's highly likely the ratings for the week will be down, there is definitely a pattern of the weekly rating going down on the week of the July 4 holiday (for at leats AMC) ... but I do think the July 4th episode itself will do "well" because last year all the soaps had significant viewership jumps on the day.

      That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.

      As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.

      I have to be honest I’m really struggling with this show. I love everything with Eva/Leslie/Ted/Nicole/Kat and enjoy Dani and Bill’s shenanigans (I’m on the Hayley needs to be recast train now tho), Chelsea is second to Kat as my favorite Dupree grandkid and I loved her coming out to her mom. The show was on a truly great run with the big Leslie and Eva reveal at Nicole and Ted’s anniversary party and the fall out has still been good even with the unnecessary Ted recast and them making Leslie kind of dumb by exposing herself too much unnecessarily. The real problem for me started when they rotated back to way too damn much screen time for Derek/Ashley/Andre (if anyone should have been up first for a recast it was these three IMO). They tried way too hard to drum up drama between Ashley and Derek and the actors were clearly fighting for their mediocre charisma less acting lives to make it work but none of it landed, just horrible. Naomi and Jacob and this weird homeless woman story are also BORING. I can see where its potentially going but IDGAF at all, my only hope for them is that they’re building a triangle with Naomi/Jacob/Kat because Jacob and Kat have stronger chemistry together than their current love interests (Eva is the only one who can make the awful Tomas work). Martin, his secret and still cringe worthy acting got kind of interesting with Bill dropping hints to Smitty but they completely lost me with that lil fakeout scene at the country club. The lame “teenagers” (air quotes because Samantha is no Bianca Lawson and never beating the black Andrea Zuckerman allegations) can get off my screen as well. Joey creeping on Vanessa is grossing me out at this point, I actually quite like Vanessa and Doug now but Joey falls totally flat as a villain and someone we’re supposed to buy Vanessa being enamored with. I’m glad they’ve finally set up something interesting for Vernon and Anita to do with this girl band reunion instead of Anita wringing her hands and telling us she feels darkness coming and Vernon giving a civil rights speech every episode but yeah… People who’ve posted with me for other shows know I’m not one for fast forwarding or hate watching either, if I find a majority of a show is not working I usually just quit but because of what this show represents for me as a Black male soap fan I really want to stick it out. Its just become a challenge lately. I saw Guza has left the building and I REALLY hope we hear about some more BTS changes. The additions of Tracy Thompson and Jamie Giddens don’t exactly inspire a lot of confidence from me tho. Honestly praying hard for a new EP to replace JHC, a lot of the stuff that annoyed about her PC and AMC runs has started to match up here. I’m giving the show through the Summer to rectify some things but IDK how long I can hold on tbh. Its been a struggle to even finish some of these episodes lately.

      I agree. I liked the episode but it felt jarring to suddenly return to a bunch of plots that had been put on pause since the Nurses' Ball started. Although I did like Laura popping in at the end to tell Alexis that millions of dollars have suddenly disappeared from Ace's trust fund. One set of scenes that made me feel optimistic for the next few months were between Sofia Mattsson and Rory Gibson. While Rory has been good as a darker, colder Michael this week, I was worried that he might not have much range. But he really warmed up with Mattsson, and I thought that (for the first time) Michael and Sasha had some genuine chemistry.

      Next week is going to be such a sad time... I just feel it based on what was shown today. I'm wondering if the whole John being bandaged thing being a throwback to how he first arrived on the show was a Ron C idea since it just seems as though this would be something he would come up with.  If so, it's good that Cwikly/Ford are in charge with the implementing of the idea instead of him. Just a delayed thought from the Ciara scenes earlier in the week, or last week.. and how she had an odd way of dressing/acting.  I chuckle because little Ciara did say that she admired and wanted to be just like Kristen when she grew up.  So the fact that her outfit choices are so odd/off beat and her manner is a bit OTT just fits.. especially since Eileen's Kristen had an odd sense of fashion and that frantic OTT undertone to her delivery. With that said, a part of me wonders how Eileen's Kristen would have handled the scenes being done this week in regards to John's situation.

      My god the smirking was back in full force today. He almost started smiling after Johnny mentioned he wouldn’t be there if EJ hadn’t raped Sami. I will say I did like seeing him with Dee as they’ve always had great chemistry.    They really are giving a lot of false hope with John getting better. I wish they hadn’t done that. Monday is going to be devastating. I really liked all the characters mixing and mingling today.  Nu-Rachel is still too sweet for me. Loved all the flashbacks. Everyone looked so young. Really enjoyed Brady’s scenes with John today.

      Kelly was a horribly-written character overall. Just think, two Emmy-winning actresses (including Cynthia Watros, Nina, GH, and Annie, GL) couldn't make it work. Pamela is campy, but so are Dani, Vanessa, Leslie, and Joey. And, I don't want to be too judgy because my love for camp changes depending on the show. OLTL, DAYS, and some eras of GH had me rolling with the camp. However, Passions was overkill and I hated it. And, here, I can take it or leave it. It's ok in small doses (note to RC). I see this show as more of a serious drama.
