Members Khan Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 Not caring for Michael Malone & Josh Griffith's OLTL is, I think, the definition of an unpopular opinion. Most, if not all, soap fans who know the show praise them for the AIDS Quilt/Homophobia and "Spring Fling" rape storylines. Others (myself included) never think much about them. I would blame that, however, on the writing for Dorian more than I would RS's performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 This is much better. I'm strangely and all of a sudden interested in this man's work. Because, in theory, he should be an excellent HW, yet he gets so much hate around here. I have yet to determine the full reasons of this Malone paradox.

Members Khan Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 Conversely, JER gets much love, especially from DAYS and PASSIONS fans; yet I can never fathom why people are so mesmerized by his "work". It's a matter of opinion, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 Yes, that is another very strange thing. Thanks for bringing that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members S&BFanForLife Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 I feel the same way, Cat. I LOVE Steve Burton. His facial expressions are priceless. Any time Jason and Carly are in a scene together, I know SB will provide the goods. And the Emmy for the best 'WTF' face in 2008 goes to...Steve Burton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sindacco Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 DAYS I love Josh Taylor as Roman Higley is a better writer when Sheffer ever was I hate the whole "supercouple" thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 I found JER to be a master at balancing story, characters, and he was all about plot and story, not about fanbased oriented coupledom who do nothing but exist without a story (see any couple on GH but in particular Scrubs). Yes, his stories had force fields and bizarre schemes to control the universe with religious chalices, but I liked that there was a always story and they took twists and turns. You could discuss his shows without talking in terms of pairings. I can't say the same for most soaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted July 14, 2008 Members Share Posted July 14, 2008 Spinelli annoys the hell out of me. I'd rather watch the mob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted July 15, 2008 Members Share Posted July 15, 2008 I have more: B&B *I like Kyle Lowder as Rick. It took a while to warm up to him because I loved Justin Torkildsen, but I couldn't imagine Torkildsen's Rick with Ashley or Taylor. *I don't mind Eric & Donna and I hope they work out. As long as we don't have to see them in bed. *I want Ridge & Brooke to get married again and head straight to the eternal backburner (although I wouldn't mind seeing Ridge in corporate storylines). *I love Katie and would rather see her as the lead heroine than Brooke. *Winsor Harmon is the best male actor on the show. *The assassination of Bridget's character was the writers' fault - not Ashley Jones'. *I wish the show would be less "campy" and more realistic. Y&R *Ashley was not a huge loss and is a better fit at B&B. *Christian LeBlanc is the best male actor on daytime, period. *Tracey Bregman and Peter Bergman are highly overrated. *I didn't mind Ryan Brown as Billy. (Scott Seymour, on the other hand...) *Christel Khalil is the best actress in her age range in daytime. *Tammin Sursok should have won that Emmy. *Michelle Stafford should win an Emmy every year.

Members GHJunkie4Life Posted July 15, 2008 Members Share Posted July 15, 2008 WORD WORD CK is alright. I don't know about best but I don't think she's absolutely horrible as some would like to have everyone believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MTSRocks Posted July 15, 2008 Members Share Posted July 15, 2008 Jeanne Cooper is a great actress. I don't know what some expect of her still. She's getting up there in age, but damn is she energetic. Her earlier years on Y&R from what I've seen were brilliant. Love her! WORD. I love Slezak, but why do they have Viki wailing all the time. It's downright silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
