Members Soapsuds Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 B Reed...another SON member here was telling me about this just a few hours ago. I need to go check it out! It sounds real interesting!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Overall I think its a good list, of course I think that there are exclusions and I think some things are too high. I am a HUGE fan of the BJ's death on GH, but they got three spots on this list when it really could have been one. I think that the final scene of Another World should be on there as well as Who shot Jake dream. I also think that Nora's monologue and breaking down at Todd's trial and causing the mistrail should be on that list. That was superb acting by Hillary B Smith, Susan Haskell and Roger Howarth. The Unabortion on AMC, should not be on this list Thats all I can think of now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Question. Why is Stefano "Killing" Roman On The Cliff not on this list? And why isn't Doug & Julie's Wedding not ranked higher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 I agree, Roman. I also think Hope's return in 1994 and her "death" should be on there too. Even Steve's "death" should be on there. Even though the story ended up sucking, Marlena being revealed as the SSK should be on there too if not just because of the sheer drama of it all. The fact that Garden of Eden made it on there discredits the list for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Graciecat Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Yes, but it was memorable moments, not just good ones. The Garden of Eden was absolutely horrible, but it was certainly memorable (in a "still hounts me" kind of way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members StephanieLover17 Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Days: Bo and Hope first wedding Nick and Chelsea meeting each other Max and Morgan meeting each other Steve and Stephanie heart to heart in the hallway at steve's place Santo and Colleen Love Scene and many more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Im-n-a-whirl Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 "Killer" tattooed to David's forehead on Y&R - what a sardonic twist that was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 The Doug Cummings reveal is a HUGE one missing, unless I somehow overlooked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Very good list. Good or bad, every one of them is truly memorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Seriously...you dont stop! How in the [!@#$%^&*] are those memorable?? Geezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz I agree. Why wasnt it on the list? Great to see Luke and Noah's kiss on the list. I didnt notice it the first time. I read the list..lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stenbeck212 Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 I didn't think their lists would consist of more than hunks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 Is it me, or does it seem like this list was heavily dominated by GH and GL? However, very good list indeed, though a few other memorable moments were left off imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Max Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 This is an excellent list that nonetheless has two major shortcomings: 1. Three of the longest running soaps--TEON, LOL, & SFT--are completely absent from the list. 2. Relatively few moments on the list occur before 1980. Also, regarding two moments on the list, I have these questions: How exactly did AMC's Jenny die by jet ski? And on OLTL, how could Viki have killed her father in 1995 when Victor showed up alive earlier this decade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted November 9, 2007 Members Share Posted November 9, 2007 GH is tops in terms of moments, followed by AMC and Days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
