i dont blame her nor do i not like her because of how AL was fired.

As i ahve said before, i do think shes an okay actress. Just not miscasted. And shes not a Y&R type actress. Thats not a slam against her. But i could see her on B&B or Days or GH.

See, from someone who was a loyal Home and Away viewer during the time Tammin was on (before it basically became CSI: Summer Bay), I can say that she is a Y&R type actress...the material she was given was always really emotionally charged and she always gave it her all and was amazing in the role of Dani Sutherland...I think given the right material on Y&R she would do amazing things.

But Colleen isn't a do-good heroine; she's a flawed one who used to be a bad girl. The bratty Manhattan kid doing pot behind Grandpa Abbott's back? :lol: She became Sweet Little Angel when the JT-Colleen relationship got serious, but when they first met he was the Bad Boy and she was the vixenish teen wanting a taste of that.

And when Adrianne Leon came to the role, Colleen returned to her tough(ish) ways. She was Lily's wingman for a while, bitching out the opposition so that Little Miss Perfect didn't have to. She also had it out for Kevin and was determined to ruin his life. And then there was seducing her professor.

LML is the one who couldn't write Colleen as she was, so they dumped the actress deemed to be gaining an egregious five extra pounds, and with Tammin Sursoks arrival, Colleen became sweet, innocent. Almost childlike.

Not blaming Tammin here. Blaming TIIC. However, I still think TS is wrong in the role. Not because she can't do Tough Colleen -- she can, I saw her on Home & Away, too. But because I *loved* Adrianne Leon and still want her back. :lol:

-Tony Geary needs to retire or be dropped to recurring status. This is daytime -- not primetime. If you don't want to be in a continuing storyline without having a mandatory 8 year vacation that shuts down that storyline and all of its players, then by all means, live it up in Amsterdam! Just pull a Finola, Rick or Tristan and pop in for a week and then disappear.

That's an unpopular opinion? I never watched Y&R but my cousin did. I always thought Sharon & Nick were one of their most popular couples.

Anyway, my unpopular opinions...

Dee Hall is OTT and I do not enjoy her on DOOL.

Carlo (Carly & Lorenzo) on GH were one of my favorite couples.

Lucky & Maxie could be amazing together. They were so hot the first time.

Sheridan & Luis are the closest thing to supercouple Passions would have ever had.

I'm glad Martha Madison & Brandon Beemer were fired.

Jonathan & Tammy were hot. Yep. I said it. Half cousins who never met are hot.

ASJ and Jason Thompson have mad inappropriate chemistry.

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2. Didn't want either 1 or 3.  Perhaps I should just list all of these that I have up.  Parodies: Dirty Sexy Money, Filthy Rich Incomplete: The Monroes, All That Glitters, Falcon Crest (have all just not all up), Once & Again S2 only Complete: Models Inc, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, Flamingo Road  
    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

    • In case it is of interest to anyone here, I have digital copies (computer files, mp4 etc.) of all of the episodes. And, besides having the files they are all up on my usual video hosting site, acct name: shallotpeel, channel it is in: Primetime Soaps and file names like  Flamingo Road S1E15 Hurricane Flamingo Road was a primetime soap on NBC by Lorimar Productions. 2 seasons. 1980-1982. Morgan Fairchild, Barbara Rush. Developed by Rita Lakin.   
    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.

    • I decided this primetime soap deserved it's own thread as the Primetime soaps thread is very cluttered and why shouldn't NBC's Lorimar soap mot have a chance to shine? In doing a deeper dive into the second season ratings I was surprised to see that FR actually had an uptick in the ratings when NBC moved it to 9pm Tuesdays beginning March 82. I'd always assumed this move was a desperate one as NBC were running short of programming and had given up on the show,deciding to let the final episodes play out and be hammered by 3's Company  and CBS Movie. But the numbers paint a different story. In it's 10pm slot up against Hart to Hart, which regularly finished in the Top 20, FL premiered in 53rd place and placed in the 40's and 50's as the season continued. But come January 82 the numbers surged a little now moving into the 40's hitting #43 in Feb. Hart to Hart was #11 Then in March Bret Maverick was moved to 8pm with FR @9. First week 16th March FR #47 15.1/24 3's Company #3 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #60 Not great but #2 in it's timeslot March 23 FR #44 15.6/25 3's Company #4 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #33 So even with a stronger movie on CBS FR's numbers went up. March 30 FR #31 16.6/26 3's Company #9 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #56 Best rating/position yet Tues April 6 pre empted Tues April 14 FR #36 16.0/26 3's Company #5 Too Close for Comfort #11 CBS Movie #59 Maintaining previous week's numbers Tues April 21 FR #33 15.6/24 3's Company #3 Too Close for Comfort #5 CBS Movie #60 Numbers down a little (reflecting general spring downturn) but best ranking of the season so far Tues April 28 FR #35 15.1/23 3's Company #9 Too Close for Comfort #6 CBS Movie #42 Tues May 4 FR #27 15.2/24 3's Company #5 Too Close for Comfort #4 CBS Movie #41 Season finale and highest position of the season. Looking at those numbers I wonder why NBC cancelled the show? They had very few hits and here was a show that was holding it's own and moving up in the rankings in a tougher timeslot. And being a serial, the storylines could continue to build the following season. And I'm sure the desirable W18-49 demo was good. Some might argue that CBS were shower weaker movies, but even so, soap viewers are pretty loyal. I guess Grant Tinker arrived at NBC and wanted a classier look but there was room for FR on the schedule. I mean, the following season Knight Rider,Powers of Matthew Star and the A Team arrived so there was still room for more populist fare. Flamingo could have stayed at 9pm-the replacement Gavilan bombed (surely FR would have done better} or moved back to 10pm. The following Jan NBC had a hit with A Team Tues 8pm. Had Flamingo followed it, it might have really taken off. As it was they tried Bare Essence, which flopped. Oh well,it was not to be...
