I wouldn't say Liza Huber is underrated, nor is she Emmy material. She doesn't get an emmy for being Susan Lucci's daughter... however she does get a JOB, isn't that enough? :-p LOL

GL:

overrated: Beth Ehlers and Kim Zimmer

Both of these ladies are talented but I don't see them as the greatest thing since slice bread. The show should not be turned upside down to cater to these women. The show was much better when these ladies were not on it.

Days overrated

Deidre Hall and Marlena, Darin Brooks (he's Ok, but I'm still trying to figure out that Emmy nod). the character of Chelsea (come on. She's a cute girl, but she's not THAT hot to me! Well, I guess since I'm a straight woman, I would hope not, LOL), the character of Chloe and Nadia Bjorlin, and the character of Sami. In the past, the characters of Belle and nuShawn. I'm getting close to feeling EJ is highly overrated, too, as a character, but I feel the actor does an excellent job. Oh, yeah, and Dr. Dan is too overrated. When are they going to canonize that guy?

Underrated:

Jay Kenneth Johnson, Arianne Zucker, Kristen Renton, Thaao Penglis (NOW he gets recognition!), Leeann Hunley, Blake Berris/Nick, John Aniston

OLTL

Overrated:

Starr and Cole

Underrated:

    • To me, Judith McConnell (Sophia, SB) was more poised for Beth than anyone else. Yes, she was, as Sister Beatrice.
    • Is that even still possible? I thought that too at first but with Jan saying that she's never lied to Ashley about who her father is... Does Ashley even know who her dad is? 
    • Unfortunately I only had one or two pages from those months. I believe I posted them but it would only cover one or two shows. 
    • I think she would have been fine, although Beth was a thankless part. She probably was seen as aging out of the genre after AW.  I forgot she was on Sunset Beach. 
    • Nicole's lucky Im no a soap villian bc if I was Wig, Id replace the liquid in her Febreze bottle with an odorless poison so that everytime she sprayed that thing, she'd be slowly killing herself

    • OK, I like the Cat interactions with Xander and EJ. And, I get that there are new writers. But, Clyde was shot 12/11/2024.  So, why have we not heard Xander or EJ's response to the situation for five months!  Clyde shot EJ (or he ordered him shot), shouldn't he react more to the news of his coma.  And, I've never heard EJ or Kristin mention that the woman who lived with them last summer was a fraud. Rather than giving lip service to the idea of family and community, at least it feels like everyone no longer lives in a bubble. Also, while it makes sense to use the hospital as the prize in the war between EJ and Xander.  We all have to admit that under the prior writer, at least Xander, and I think EJ, were dissuaded from buying the hospital went it started to go under in March.  I get the magic sepsis cure makes the hospital more valuable.  But, it seems like the people who are going to get rich are going to be the pharmaceutical companies.  Unless, Kayla and Sarah are going to start manufacturing prescription drugs out of the coffee machine in the lobby.  -- crud, I broke my promise to stop complaining about illogical this story can be.
    • I don't know if I could have seen that from her, honestly. But I feel like, outside of GH and her original DAYS stint, American daytime really didn't pay much attention to her, even though they should have.
    • Co-sign, 100% on this one. Xander was entirely in the wrong.
    • I'm seeing some interesting takes on this thread regarding Dani's behavior/personality, including right now. Here's my take on her: I think that Dani relishes in lighting people up. I think that's for multiple reasons.  I feel like Dani has probably largely been like this throughout her life. And that she gets joy in dragging people whenever she feels like it's necessary. I believe she feels like this is her being herself. I think one big reason why she's particularly giddy right now is because she's able to go back to acting this way, minus the hurt she's been dealing with due to Bill's affair. She got in Bill and Hayley's faces after their affair/wedding, but she was miserable doing it due to dealing with the hurt of that situation. Nicole's situation with Ted/Eva/Leslie allows her to act this way minus her suffering like she did at the hands of Bill. I believe she does empathize/care for her sister but is also interestingly enough rejuvenated by this situation. This situation is energizing her and making her act more like old self again, minus being hurt by her own's husband's infidelity. I think Nicole's situation is also a distraction for her from dealing with her own failed marriage to Bill.
