I have mixed feelings. I want GL to post big numbers for their sake and the sake of soap opera, but the Natalia and Olivia story is so wrong on so many levels. I do not want it to be rewarded.

I think we have gotten into the habit for some anyway just to want a gay story that they throw out all reasoning just to get it. It is the same with the Luke/Noah story there are so many things wrong with it on so many levels. I am thankful for it but I cannot praise it because there are so many things wrong. And unless AMC starts doing better with the Bianca/Reese story it is falling into that category too.

I just can't get behind one until they do it right.

Their dealing drugs on OLTL and its got me interested again to make a full commitment to taping each episode. Starr's dad Todd continues to be the most crazed man in the soaps right now.

Y&R has made the soap opera genre respectable again with its ratings so here's hoping to a big rating on MLK Day last week.

B&B is the one soap where you're ready to take a break from it, they just suck you in as that s/l with Rick was amazing during that week.

DAYS had the goodbye for John & Marlena so expect some swells in viewership there.

GH had the hospital sickness s/l so they should be up too.

The ratings that's the most important will be GL as we move closer to Edmund and Phillip making an impact on the show.

Look out for Monday's ratings as that was MLK Day.

I think the Olivia/Natalia story is or has the potential to be the most organic gay love story I have seen on an American soap. Their relationship has slowly changed over the course of a year, both women have changed, and both characters have been strengthened by the relationship. If properly told, it's everything a soap romance should be, and if it's not a romance, it's everything a soap friendship should be. They have such a bond which I have never seen with Reese and Bianca. Either way, I think GL has improved from where it has been the past few years and I'm hoping for an increase, although I'm not expecting one.

I'm wondering if AMC lost any viewers when they realized what a pointless stunt Josh's death was or if AMC is bottomed out.

The Tarty tedium has run its course, I'm looking forward to seeing whether OLTL will have any change, up or down, thanks to David's return and the sharper writing for Jessica's struggles.

My guess is a modest gain for GH - nothing for AMC or OLTL, I have been predicting OLTL to fall to a 1.9 for weeks, and I stand by that. (Even though I don't want it to happen)

Y&R probably at a 3.9 for the week...

Days will probably have a 2.3. This is the one soap that surprises me with its moderately healthy ratings. I cannot wait to see what the ratings reflect over the next month. Its nice that one soap can jump so much. I still have no desire to watch anything Dena Higley writes.

I have to agree that B&B was quite watchable last week. I enjoy any storyline on B&B involving fashion. Despite the absolute worst acting on television. I can see B&B getting a .1 or .2 rise..

Well I know it won't have anything to do with these ratings and may not even next week, but yesterday's last few segments of GH was one of the best directed segments I have seen all year. All the overshots of each person's faces as Kate moved toward the meeting room and Patrick running up the stairs and so many other faces was wonderfully put together.

Just had to throw that out there while it was on my mind.

    • Cady had a fairly posh accent or manner as Rosanna - the character was a 180 from Dixie when she went to ATWT, and it was a huge success initially. As someone mostly only familiar with the nagging, miserable or clueless Dixie of the mid-late '90s and early 2000s it was what convinced me Cady could act. I thought she was incredible in her first run. Later, in future stints, her hair and story and performances were all over the place but a lot of that was down to the show for me. She brought some of Rosanna back with her to Dixie in her ill-fated return and a lot of people didn't like it, which I understood but I did think the character needed some change. I think she's had a little bit of the same persona and arch performance in every role she's played since, including Jennifer Horton at DAYS or Kelly at Y&R, who later became a maniac and was easily the worst work I've ever seen Cady do. It has kind of infected her overall mannerisms, I'll allow that, but I do think she brought Dixie back together as herself while still evolving the character when she returned to AMC again in 2012-13. Nonetheless, for me the upshot is that this is a character where Cady's kookier recent performance style suits the role. But I can understand it grating for people.
    • Yeah, Loretta Swit's passing stings. My late dad LOVED the show (he died last November) and watched it religiously. In first run and repeats.  And I was literally born the day after the show's premiere, so I grew up with it! I know many loved later, softer Margaret, but I loved Early Hot Lips. In real life, I'm all for less misogyny, but to me, the early years of M*A*S*H were just funnier. May Loretta Swit rest in peace. Thanks for all the memories connected to my dad!

    • I agree that she isn't Dixie or Rosanna and shouldn't be acting like either. I just found it strange that she had a naive Southern character and a wealthy urbane character in the past and didn't experiment with accents before (unless I missed it, correct me if I'm wrong). She used to do improv characters on YouTube. She's probably doing something similar here.

    • And here I thought I'd never think about Lauren Tewes again after her brief appearance in Twin Peaks Season 3.
    • I may be the single person who does not mind Transatlantic Campy Pamela. I think it perfectly suits this sort of Absolutely Fabulous-esque supporting character she's playing much more than it did when Cady tried weird and often broad stuff at AMC* or Y&R, or later stints at ATWT. She's not Dixie and she's not trying to be. I will freely admit some of the other chances she took at other shows often came off stiff, hammy or downright mortifying (Kelly Andrews, come on down). (* - and I say that as one of the few who was somewhat into Cady trying to make Dixie more cosmopolitan in the Rosanna Cabot mold in mid-2000s AMC, just to liven the character up again)
    • There’s absolutely nothing exciting happening storyline wise but I’m always happy to see the vets on my screen so I’ll take what I can get. It’s also just nice to see them all dressed up in the same room, it always gives classic Y&R vibes. The best part? No Phyllis.

    • Well now we had Ashley's reaction-and weren't we all gasping when she appeared to hate it-but she was just joking!! She loved it. Now we have to see Abby's reaction, and maybe Mamie could come back to say she loves it. How about Jill via Zoom giving her opinion (she'll love it) and bring in a day player to play Mrs Martinez to say she loves it also... I feel bad to keep dumping on this show (not really) but when the choices they make are so inane, it's the only entertainment value the show has. Let's unpack the Nikki birthday story. So Claire wants to throw her Nana a birthday bash as away of endearing Kyle to Victor. Don't quite get the logic there,but OK. She hires a party planner who makes ridiculous suggestions. Slightly annoyed that Y&R are hiring someone for this role for 5 episodes when we never see doctors, co- workers etc. But OK to that to. With all the talk we are expecting something special. What we get is the Jazz Lounge hideously decorated with some ugly tablecloths and a few tacky decorations. They needed a planner for this? Then the guest list consists of family members (no grandchildren)and a few others. Hardly a party. As usual the costuming is pretty awful. A red and black theme ? And our guest of honor is sporting a do that looks like a cross between Cameron Diaz in Something about Mary and Marie from Roxette. They should have had an intimate dinner and ditched all the fanfare. Would have been way more believable.
