4) Zach killed - murdered - assassinated Josh

That's unpopular?

That's unpopular?

Well to the huge fan base it is.

I have been run off two boards for saying that one.

3) I hate journalists who praise sloppy writing just for the sake of winning points with the powers that be.

Expanding on this a bit...

You write a soap blog? Niiice. Fiiiine. But that does NOT make you an expert! That little "bloggers' trip" to Peapack? *eye roll* Only one of them had any business going, IMO.

Zach clearly murdered Josh.

I'd have to agree with both of you. I only go to a few soap boards and most of them seemed to feel the same. I'm glad I didn't run into any big defense of that story.

I'm starting to think Thorsten Kaye is the biggest drag on AMC in years as he gets further and further into the Pratt version of the character.

Some may already be popular opinions....

ATWT

- I've never liked Holden & Lily together. I see more obligation than passion there. I wish the writers would break them up for good.

- Have never really liked Carly & Jack together, either. I'm sick of the numerous break-up stories these two have.

- I actually liked Holden & Carly.

- They should have never aged Luke. I really liked the kid who played him during the stories surrounding Malta and Rose's death. That said...I don't mind Luke & Noah right now.

Days

- I don't like Philip with Stephanie...IMO, they should bring Belle back for him.

- John & Marlena are probably the most overrated couple on daytime.

- I don't find Nadia Bjorlin all that attractive (too much make-up) and her acting really hasn't improved much since she joined the show almost a decade ago.

GL

- Dinah & Shayne are better than Dinah & Mallet, but they're just okay as a couple.

- I'll take Reva & Jeffrey over Josh & Reva anyday.

Jennifer Finnigan (ex-Bridget, B&. Vastly overrated. Not to compare and contrast but I think Ashley Jones has far more range even though she has had less "Emmy-worthy" material to show for it.

Ashley Jones is MUCH better!

Martha Madison & Brandon Beemer were just as bad as Kirsten Storms and Jason Cook playing Belle & Shawn on Days.

I think they were even worse.

The worst teen ensemble in the history of daytime must have beem Kirsten Storms, Jason Cook, Nadia Bjorlin, Kyle Lowder, Farah Fath, JKJ and Heather Olson. I didnt use to think that was an unpopular opinion but given that all of them have jobs except for Olson means daytime execs disagree. I'd go further to say Fath and Lowder have gotten worse in acting ability since Days.

Days current teen actors are worse, Will, Mia and then some friends to Mia, I can't stand any of them.

I've never really cared for Kristian Alfonso. In the 80s I could see her appeal, as she had more presence and beauty, but after her return she was very gaunt, looked strange, and gave very enervated performances. That they kept her and had no problem dumping Mary Beth Evans, I'll never understand.

Kristian was awful in the 80s, she did get better in time but I could never stand her babyvoice back then.

I actually like Crystal Hunt and her Stacey Morasco character. I think all soaps need a good bad girl to stir the pot. I just hope they eventually move her away from Rex and Gigi, who I also like, by the way.

I think Kirsten Storms is a TERRIBLE ACTRESS....from her sqeauky voice, to her over-the-top performances....she is just down right terrible to me, or at the very least highly mediocre compared to the rest of the younger actresses out there (hell I think Melanie over at DOOL is even better.)

I love Laura Wright as Carly and think she's made the role 100% her own

Petey is better than Spinelli.

Petey is better than Spinelli.

That's not an unpopular opinion, dear, it's the God honest truth.

:lol:OMG! I LOVE IT!

I totally agree with you. Which leads me to my own... She and Adrienne Frantz are two of the most annoying OVERLY BLONDE daytime actresses in their peer group.

- Brenda Dickson was not a bad actress at all. Sure, she loved being campy. And sure, she's a nutcase. But if you look at her two different portrayals of Jill, I think you can see quite a layered performance.

- Jess Walton and Daniel Goddard have crazy sexual chemistry.

- Eileen Davidson was better off on B&B.

- Eileen Davidson was better off on B&B.

Turns out, you might be so right. B&B is much more of a show for her than Y&R. Pity Brad doesn't know how to write for the character.
