November Sweeps: Rank 'Em!

Y&R deserves a straight A

It was basically flawless except for some remaining cast chunks from the previous regime. Great storytelling, balance, lush look, emotional connection - MAB, Sheffer and Rauch delivered it all. That's how a soap should be.

Haven't seen a single episode of B&B in November at all so far. Will catch up with very soon but I don't expect it to be better than a C-. So far I don't see how any of the current stories can keep my interest until the COMPLETE REVAMP OF ALL STORIES in late December/January which is heavily rumored and sounds pretty good...

Y&R A+: Really heads and shoulders above the rest. Other soaps should take note.

OLTL B: Just for the pure climax of stories. I still think the stories stink. Same old baby switch story.

AMC C-: I still havent seen anything remotely good about this show. Only today's ending was good.

DAYS D: Too many newbies on.

ATWT D-: The same [!@#$%^&*] sweeps from Pissy.

GH F: Violence...UGH

B&B F: I saw this week...boy how awful B&B is right now.

GL F: No comment

I'm curious as to how AMC's sweeps has been great? What happened that was so compelling? If I wanted to watch crazy, I'd rather watch Janet............

Co-sign. AMC's sweeps were a bust. The fallout from the tornado has been nill for the most part. I find it hard to believe with as many tornadoes as we were lead to believe that hit the town, that there wasn't more damage than they're saying? Right......

Annie's storyline could have been compelling, but it's all about Ryan. Ryan is why she went crazy ::barf::

Zach & Bianca-like SID said viewers tend to prefer character driven storylines over plot driven ones.

Greenlee barely gives her HUSBAND a second thought after he takes a bullet for her, she's too up in Ryan's kool-aid to be bothered with Aidan.

Jake and Taylor are BORING

Jesse looks like an ass for letting Ryan continually berate and abuse(even physically) law enforcement officials and others. Oh and Pratt did an injustice to Jesse. I mean really. Jesse goes on the run and hooks up with Rebecca barely months after leaving the love of his life, and knocks her up? Right.......

It was November sweeps?! :o

Really though, I only watch Y&R and GL, but if you hadn't posted this topic, I wouldn't have even thought about it. Back in the good ol' days I would have bought SOD (and prob SOW too) and plopped down last month to read all the exciting things that were going to happen on the soaps during this month. Now it's the 26th and I just now gave it a second thought.

I still cant believe we have Eric(Great Grandpa) with Brook's trampy sister. Seriously, WTF is Eric smokin. The show is just sick!! Stephanie shouldnt take him back. Any other story going on I could tell. Is there any other going on?

And I agree Heather Tom should go back to y&r as Victoria.

      RIP Chris Robinson- his Jason Frame was one of AW’s better villains.  Jason’s murder mystery was one of AW’s best- practically the entire cast was a suspect!

    • She might be using Anita like she planned to do before. If so, I suspect Tracy is not in on it. I'm not sure if this was revealed yet - I didn't watch 6/11 yet.

    • I feel like they have already been rested as it is. I've rarely seen a cancer story for a major character treated as casually as it was with Alfie. I would probably write him out and have Kat on her own as they seem to have no ability to write for a serious Alfie or to rein Shane in.
    • I hate to say it: but, at this point, I'd marry off Alfie and Kat, and then rest them off-canvas for a period of time.
    • Oh, I hear what you're saying. People these days will follow anyone whether they have substance or not. 
    • @Liberty City @MichaelGL I could believe the possible spoiler about another landlady as Kat seems likely temporary/placeholder to me.  I don't hate the idea of Kat being in the Vic, especially as the overhyped drag parody that is Elaine (even if they have belatedly tried to humanize her) and dullard George and his dull children do nothing for me. I just wish Kat was in a stronger place. They have shown so little of her in the last few years in stories that should have been stronger than they are, and it's not just because of Jessie's suspensions or injury breaks.
    • Yep, when Kim was bonked over the head during the harrowing tornado, she was in love with that grinning, happy, big-haired Dan who looked as though he belonged on The Brady Bunch.  (Reilly) By the time she finally regained her memory fully and shook herself free of John Dixon (didn't she get pregnant with Andy during all of this?), she was stuck with that sad-eyed, grouchier Dan who'd been Dan several years earlier (Colenback).  The Bolivia trip was probably the switchover.   
    • I'm clinging to the fact that it was Jill in charge when GV last got "treatment" from GH. Praying he has no reason to blame Frank. Love2Hate Drew seems multiple choice: redemption or discovery of his not-Drewness which means they've got Drew tucked somewhere, probably where NotBritt has been kept. I have only one thing to say about JJ. Clearly he has a future in PR or politics. Who knew he could tell a tale so well?
    • That was such a mess in general but barely felt like it was about Monica. Hopefully her funeral will be.
