He should have lost his job two years ago when GH lost their chance to pass B&B. Sure they got rid of Jenifer Brandsford Carly and recast her with LW but it was not enough. Frons, JFP, and Guza should have all been fired.

And suprise, suprise. Here we are two years later and GH is letting another chance to pass B&B slip threw their fingers.

Idiots.

Woohoo! I love it when the ratings validate my opinion. A 2.4! Yay. GH SUCKS. No one is happy. Soaps cannot thrive on misery and sleaze alone. But Guza will sure try like hell. He needs to go. All he knows is cheating. And, sure, while it is a soap staple, so is family and romance. Yet Guza doesn't do that. He is a one-trick pony who should be put out on the street with Frons and JFP right beside him. ABCD is in the crapper and deserves it.

And it will not change unless the network makes changes.

Whoot, B&E! Save AMC! You two rock. Miracle workers. Saviors. Best thing to happen to this show in forever. :rolleyes:

Is it just me, or is it like Megan never left the building? Hmmmmm.

I wish I could say I was surprised, but I'm not. I wish I could say that it bothered me that even B&E aren't getting the job done, but it doesn't. It's sad really, because so many people have propped these two up so much, that there's no where for them to go now but down. :( I love AMC, always have, always will, but truth is and like it or hate, our show is in as much trouble now as it was with Megan at the helm. No matter how you slice it, AMC is still sinking.

I'm actually really shocked that with all the soap press for OLTL's Thursday & Friday shows, that the show actually tanked by weeks end. I actually caught both episodes, and thought they were pretty good! Caught a few Y&R's last week, and something doesn't feel right on that show anymore, can't put my finger on it, but it wasn't the Y&R that I adored a few years ago. I just wish P&G could invest some money into sets for GL. It just looks so bad, even when the writing and acting aren't unwatchable, the sets are disturbingly bad! And when you stop and you see the crappy sets these actors have to work in, you sometimes quickly change the channel.

DAYS is in a sad state, much more compared to the other shows considering what an already fragile situation it has. I'm sad that this big storyline turned out to be sucky as did the returns of Tony, Andre and Stefano. Here's hoping for brighter days.

This show is horrendous! I can't believe this network has such a bad schedule and bad shows. This is a waste of airtime on a soap opera network, really!! Reality shows are the anti-soap in many senses and SoapNet deserves this big slap in the face.

I hope B&B gets up to a 3.0 next week. Brooke's rape SL has been amazing. It seems that B&B is the only soap worth watching currently. :D:D

DAYS: no surprise! This Santeen nonsense isn't helping, and the teen SL sucks! :rolleyes:

It only been a few weeks since they started. You have to give them time. Sometimes when a new HW starts, the show gets worse before it gets better.

Isn't that what is going on with B&B? Didn't it reach its new lows in the first few weeks of Kay Alden's writing? Now it seems to be going up.

    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of 
    • FROM THE VAULT: NON-SOAP DAYTIME RATINGS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM FEBRUARY 1973 & MAY 1973:

        FROM THE VAULT: NON-SOAP DAYTIME RATINGS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM AUGUST 1973 & NOVEMBER 1973:
    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975. 
    • No. Ed and Holly were married and having problems. She had an affair with Roger and that's when Christina--Blake--was conceived. The rape happened much later, after Holly and Roger were married.
    • Was Blake the product of Roger raping Holly, or did that come after when they were a couple?
    • I really wish we could see that episode...absolutely, my memory could be faulty, it was a very long time ago. I'm not going to contradict what the actors said--there has to be a reason it made them so uncomfortable that they talked about it in the press and complained to TPTB. I think that was the first one where they made the point that they wanted to educate the audience about the subject.
    • I just did with GL and its made me very happy!

          Oh yes, trying to get into any soap from scratch starting post-2010 would be hard. I prefer to go back to the good ol' days, before the decline. 
    • Can we talk about how iconic the 1994 tornado was on AMC? I was scanning through old episodes last night and came across this episode. The tornado was epic and the storylines/aftermath were so good (Julia's scar/Noah!; Jenny/Ray/Nola/Jesse in heaven with Tad, etc).  For 1994, these special effects and budget for this big event were amazing. 10 out of 10!  The only thing missing is Erica!  I can't recall where Erica was at the time, but I really wish she had been involved in this storyline.

    • On the way to her own engagement party? I've read that the show had trouble getting the audience to sympathize with Rita, but...that seems bizarre. Maybe I can understand the issue with the censors, given that at the time, rape wasn't depicted the way it is now, and marital rape was even less acknowledged.  Wasn't Chris Brooks' rape one of the first honest stories on the subject? I just don't think I could get into a show I didn't have a working knowledge of. I know it's a different era, but I really tried to get into GH once Maura West joined, but it just never jelled.
