Zendell has no chemistry at all and should have never been a couple.

Kendell should have taken the wrap for Micheal Cambius's murder and went to jail.

Greenlee should have went over the falls with Leo.

Zach should have been a temporary character to cause trouble between Maria and Edmund.

Edmund shouldn't have been killed off.

Ryan should have never cameback after he saw Kendell seducing Aiden Turner.

Danielle and Babe should have been killed off by the Satin Slayer in addition to Simone and Erin.

I don't care that Dixie died the second time. She should have stayed dead in 2002 and preserved her character's likeability.

~ Kristen Stroms is a horrible little actress....her voice is shrill and grating, and Im tired of Micheal Bruno and others complaining about her not getting Emmy Nominations.....SHE WILL GET ONE WHEN SHE DESERVES ONE....in other words...NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~ How does Farah Fath keep getting work....she and her bestest friend ever Kristen Stroms are the reason Soaps actors get a bad rap.

~ If given the proper chance, Robin Christohper could have carried General Hospital, she was consistently the best actress on GH during her whole tenture. Skye was more of a leading lady than Carly ever will be.

~ OLTL is becoming increasingly boring, I hate to say this but on Dena Highleys worst day...OLTL was far more entertaining than its currently being written. These stories are just far to inconsistent ( Yes so was Dena's but her OLTL had a certain something that strangely kept it entertaining).

~ Susan Haskell.....was at her best during her rape storyline...and has never been good since.

~ Sabrina on Y&R..ROCKS...lol!!! Raya Medinne has proven to me she can bring it when given the proper chance.....

Here's more:

Matt Reardon was the Jeffrey O'Neill of his day and had the personality of a baked potato. Billy and Vanessa was always the better couple.

Kim Zimmer and Robert Newman were never the heart and soul of the show. They may have been the star power, but actors like Jerry verDorn, Peter Simon, Maureen Garrett, Maeve Kinkead, and others were its heart. The show lost so much when they were all fired and that is partly the reason why the show is unsalvagable (verDorn in particular).

Kassie Depaiva is a horrible actress and has been ever since her days as Chelsea Reardon.

Oh it was? LMAO. Oops, I forgot I had mentioned it before.

I just find Depaiva's performances (especially as Blair) to be overdone, chest-beating tirades. In this sense, she was the perfect partner for Howarth because they were so much alike. It doesn't help that the character has been written so horribly. Although maybe now that she is away from Todd (hopefully for good), she might grow on me a bit more.

Seeing Erin Torpey last week really made me see how much I dislike Bree in this role.

And ITA about Roger. He IS Todd Manning and always will be to me. I have no clue who the character is that is masquerading as Todd, but it isn't Todd.

    • 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...
