Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 Please tell me how come Y&R and DAYS get regime changes, yet no soap at ABC does? What the hell is wrong with that network? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 Is that a trick question? Frons is the problem, him and his agenda I'm not surprised GH went down either, people are already sick of the mob, and adding more mob, yeah not surprised at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members shawn Perez Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 maybe it's because the ABC executives have the soapnet ratings. i know the ratings are much higher then 2.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 The ratings on soapnet are lower than ABC. They are fewer people watching soapnet because they dont have it. So that doesnt wash with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members shawn Perez Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 how would you know how many people have cable or not? people either DVR soaps. or watch them on soapnet when they get off work. vast majority of people work during the day. so however you wanna look at it. it's simple fact that more viewers are tuned in soapnet then ABC itself.

Members Vee Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 ATWT is unwatchable, plain and simple. Its only ratings come from Nuke and even that's falling apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 Really you need to get a hobby instead of igniting fights. The same could be said about your show. Let's move on and grow up! LMAO....Toups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 LMAO Toups OLTL is just dull, the writing is fairly good, but the show as a whole is just BORING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 I've been happy with DOOL the last few weeks. It is not surprising to me that it is the one soap that didn't drop this week. Last week I was a little mystified by the DOOL criticism about bringing in Shirley Jones in light of the fact the show did go up in overall ratings from the previous week. DOOL, in my opinion, is better than soaps that some tout as the best on television. Then again, all of the soaps have their fans, and I'm sure each thinks the soap they watch is the best. One person's best is another's really really boring. Regardless, I think the show has been really good the past couple of weeks, and I think John and Marlena, in particular, have had an interesting story. I fear that will change soon unfortunately. I'm glad for a couple of weeks, the ratings have rewarded the show. Next week, though, DOOL gets the three week jinx. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cyberologist Posted February 14, 2008 Members Share Posted February 14, 2008 I'd like to see all soaps go nothing but UP because I am a fan of this genre of storytelling and want it to survive its an American tradition starting on radio and should be preserved. RE: Angie/Jesse: ITA their acting has been just mesmerizing I'm really enjoying this true romance its so interesting to me that I watched them 20 years ago and now here I am again and Frankie all grown up ...I love their storyline....its like an old fashion romance finally an 'African American core family again on ABC. Who would have thought it. As for PimpDaddy and his pimping machine, IMO Brian Frons is the absolute worse thing to happen to this genre of storytelling no question about it and until he goes ABC will continue to circle the drain his vision is warped and simply outdated...its not cutting edge, he doesn't take risk and he' totally into pairing driven storylines (his preferred pairings) ...until he goes ABC soaps will continue to circle the drain. I find their storytelling polarizing and divisive. and I can not be "trained" to accept his vision as he has said that I can be trained to accept anything that is presented which is insulting and condescending ...in all my years on forums I have not yet one poster who likes his method of story-telling (for various reasons). not one.

Members shawn Perez Posted February 15, 2008 Members Share Posted February 15, 2008 that maybe true. but if you were referring to me. lets be realistic here. if you think DOOL is the best soap. name a couple things that would entertaining the average viewer? and i name a few things about GH that might entertain all of primetime.

Members Cyberologist Posted February 15, 2008 Members Share Posted February 15, 2008 I know I have it (it comes with my package) and I don't watch it only when I mess up my recording Soapnet is not "diverse" enough for me and I have issue with that cable channel...I find it scary.
