Don't tempt me- I would love Darlene to cuss out all the women under 30. I can just imagine all the nasty sarcastic things Darlene would say to Tess. Hell, I'd take all the characters on that show to go toe to toe with llanview. I would sick Roseanne on Blair, and give Blair a steamy affair with John Goodman's character.

I do think people overestimate the humour on OLTL. I can't help but be confused whenever someone laughs at an episode title or something the horrific dialogue writers give the actors to recite on the show. More than often, I find that everything intended to be funny falls flat on the show.

LMAO! Seriously, the second we get information on a casting call for Delphina's family, I think you should go to the OLTL studios and demand onscreen credit for putting the idea is RC's head lol

I'm more comfortable calling Carlivati out on some of his [!@#$%^&*] now that I rarely watch whole episodes anymore. When he tossed out his cute little "our anniversary deserves more than a montage of clips, we're retelling classic stories blah blah blah" spiel, he failed to mention that every major storyline for July and August would be based on or lifted from other storylines by other writers. Mendora, heaven, 1968, this secret room garbage...all of it is based on something else. Did he run out of ideas or something? And instead of pulling the material out of his ass, he insteads pulls it out of somebody else's ass!

Soaps aren't worthy of survival. A prime time show of the best soap clips would be better.

Soaps aren't providing social commentary or change, they are stuck in a rut.

Dru/Victoria Rowell is not needed on the Y&R. I have liked not seeing her over the top style of acting. She'd be better on B&B

Sharon Y&R is a horrible despicable character.

Phyllis is misunderstood and needs a good explanation for the way she is.

Victor is an ugly old man and why do all these women fight over him? It must be the money.

Nick is a caveman.

Jana is great, one of the more original of the younger set.

I don't mind Adrienne Franz on Y&R while I hated her on B&B. Maybe it is because Lilly and Colleen are even worse. They should write her as Patty/Tawney's daughter by Jack Abbott.

Chloe is great and the new storyline reveal adds some much needed depth to the character.

Katherine is an evil, evil woman who always lived to destroy other women.

Jill is fabulous

Brad's eyes are too close together and he is no hunk. The only woman who was as yuck as him was Sharon. I would love them together on the backburner.

Jack vs. Victor, I'm always in Jack's corner.

Nikki and Bobby were better than Nikki and Victor.

Kimberlin Brown should come to Y&R in the role of Sugar who had her face changed to look like Sheila on B&B. Instead of playing a villain she could be a reformed woman and long term character.

I'm sure there are many more since my opinions are not very popular. Like I care, LOL!!

I have some more:

I loathe B&B's new production style. It almost completely destroyed the Pam/Donna scenes last week.

I love Katie and Bridget. Nick, not so much.

Heather Tom is much better as Katie than as Victoria.

What's the big deal about Elizabeth Hendrickson? She's good, but she's not that good. A better actress could have been cast as Chloe.

I happen to like B&B's new production model. Certainly some of the music could use a little retooling...but it's as close to a British soap as the USA is ever going to get!

Lauren Koslow should ditch DAYS and come home to B&B as Margo Lynley...even if that means Lesley Anne Down gets fired.

      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.

      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.

      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.

      Great episode, better than what the spoilers said. The gambling story was tolerable but Jon Lindstrom sucks in the role. Ambyr Michelle continues to shine. The diner and country club scenes were very well executed.  The Jan and Leslie scenes were very good! My favorite is Eva, now followed by Nicole.

      Today's show was good. The only part I didn't care for were the Derek/Ashley scenes. I think they are bland together and Derek is very bland by himself. He is the least interesting character on the show IMO. I don't think they have much chemistry together. I appreciated Jan's reaction to Leslie. I like how regular/realistic her and Mona are as characters. Jan came across as very believable of being appalled and even hurt by Leslie's treatment of them and towards Eva in the diner.  Leslie continues to try and manipulate people with IMO her fake caring routine, only to show her true colors after she's confronted/called out for her treatment of others. I continue to dislike the way she mistreats Eva. Speaking of Eva she was great again today. I love her and I like how Martin comforted her in the diner. I liked that Vernon showed concern for her as well. They (especially Martin) will come around quicker to her before others (like the Dupree women) will. I also am glad to see her and Ted continue to bond and him behaving like a father towards her/helping her. He's the only one in her life who is fully trying to stand by her. I look forward to seeing their relationship grow.

      Xander was screaming at Felicity.  He did do something wrong.  Felicity was clearly upset by it and Cat/Chad told him to stop.  That's fair.  No one deserves to be yelled at their job-and even I think this plot point is too preachy.  It's not acceptable behavior for anyone to do that.
