Unpopular Opinions


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have tons of unpopular opinions - from now, from the past, etc. I used to run a sigline that named my 8 best unpopular opinions. It was fun for awhile.

For today I will just say, I hate smushed together, intended to be cute-sy, way overdone couple names. I mean it was one thing way way back when ATWT fans began doing it with Lilden. But, now, it's just gone so far beyond that many of them are incomprehensible & add a little bit of time in & look back & yeah baby, Huh? D'oh! And, right now it is Y&R's LAne. I mean you say Lane with regard to soaps & you are talking about Dalton, Georgia's own Lane Davies!

Couple names are ick, especially the ones that you can just tell the fans truly struggled to put together. I'll never get over the stupidity that was JAVA. Jessica and Antonio VegA. Really? Just......really?

I absolutely hate the combined soap couple names -- all of them

I think most of the self-appointed soap opera experts are gas bags.

I think OLTL is so campy that it is a joke.

I still think RC is incredibly overrated. The more he writes, the more obvious that becomes

I agree with those who say Rick Hearst is much much better than the big actors on OLTL

Spinelli annoys the hell out of me

The actress who previously played Maxie is better than the one who plays her now.

It's time for the networks to start seriously considering options for what comes next.

I thought the show sucked ever since Christmas- spending the holidays watching Bon Jour Cafe was so boring, so campy, so emotionally shallow- that I started taping over the show before I had seen the episodes. 'til this very day, everytime someone writes that they miss Bon Jour Cafe, I think they are terrorists out to get me.

watching all these wealthy people deal with their problems is like watching a Harry Potter movie- you know that some way, somehow, they'll find some magic spell to pull through. Their bank accounts never overdraft, they'll never get fired no matter how much work they miss, or how late they show up....OLTL makes me miss reruns of Roseanne.

Don't say that too often. Ron will write some six month rerun of Roseanne and put it on OLTL. I'm so glad people are speaking out. I thought the BonJour Cafe was just dreadful. It was a Alice return and a poor one.

    • I loved watching Shanice hand Leslie her ass and finally shutting her up. It was so good. I also love Martin & Smitty's family.  Anita has to have some sort of plan giving Leslie the tickets to mail for Winterfest. She has to be setting her up for a fall. It's pretty obvious to me Vernon is not cheating with Sharon. I think Sharon is helping him with his terrible singing voice for Winterfest. I still believe Bill & Dani are endgame but I love Dani & Andre too. I am definitely enjoying this story. And making Hayley a black widow is a nice twist.
    • Sorry for the spam. Wasn't sure where to put this, it's from Tony Geary's husband's IG. Tony watching Genie and Maurice on Mo's show.
    • This show is really trundling along BTW. When is someone going to show up to slit Beastmaster's throat or crack the whip on metrosexual Sidwell? (BTW, openly presenting this cheery bon vivant as casually bisexual would at least be something vaguely diverting.) At least kill Brennan by year's end. I'm bored.
    • She told Vanessa to "DOUBLE her offer" on the Jarvis house.  The Jarvis family accepted the doubled price.  Assuming the house has an appraised value of $2,000,000, she's theoretically paid the Jarvis family $4,000,000 for the house.  The bank would loan Leslie 80% of the appraised value ($1,600,000), and Leslie had to pay the balance with cash at closing --- $2,200,000.  She only had ONE million.  Where the hell did she get the rest?!  And now she's got contractors working on the house all day & half the night.  Who's paying THEM?  I keep thinking all this will crash around her.  Either that or the writers have absolutely no idea the limits of a million dollars.  Sounds like a "lot of money", but it obviously ain't when we look at Leslie's spending since she got that million dollar check in August.

    • Vernon is an idiot. Why would he have Sharon in the same hotel that Leslie is staying at?
    • Yes, that out of the blue return was odd. Maybe GG found a forgotten clause in the contract he signed when he was wooed to ABC and they were forced to take him back! Like George Reinholt he talked about the contract that promised him primetime roles. But it was loaded in the networks favor. I think it was Gloria Loring that re-signed at Days on the promise of primetime opportunities, but that was all it was- she was put up for guest spots and TV movies but not necessarily guaranteed that she get the role.
    • I still am baffled by why Monty brought back stunt hire Gerald Gordon in the early '80s out of nowhere for like a year. I haven't found anyone who can come up with a thing he did in that second stint of note.
    • It's interesting to watch this having watched The Doctors. I'm not sure I'm seeing that much of a difference in the characters Gerald Gordon and Anna Stuart played on The Doctors and what they're playing here.
    • I keep forgetting a huge chunk of that year was written by scabs. You're probably right, because by the time the strike was over, they were likely planning an exit for Alan's character as it must have been obvious by then that Bernau was not going to return. If he was still there, it's also doubtful they would have approached MZ and MG about coming back. Wild.
