Well it is a mixed blessing right now.

I want AMC to survive and all of soaps for that matter. But at the same time I am not as happy about AMC as I was in the latter part of 2008. From Oct to December and even part of February I was in love with AMC again.

January was terrible. March for me has been almost unbearable. There is just so much right now I am not feeling. The wonderful balance that the show had for awhile is gone and there is just way too much Ryan, Zach and Kendall for my liking.

I wanted to point out the truth about the ratings though even though I am not happy about the show.

I keep thinking in the back of my mind if the ratings just went down that they would see we want more of other characters again but at the same time I want to see the show do oaky too.

Wow, Days overtook GH in the 18-49 women demo. They must be melting down at ABC. Be prepared for a new mob war, folks. Let's speculate about the ethnicity of Sonny's new enemies. They are running out of countries. Didn't they already to the Mexicans? Maybe the Colombians or the French are up next. LOL!

I think it's not the ABC would not be interested in DAYS its that Ken Corday WOULD NEVER EVER let ABC buy the show. ABC owns all their show outright and Corday would never let that happen. He would see the show die first before that happened.

This just proves that even when OLTL is stumbling like a kid with fetal alcohol syndrome, it is better than GH. Suck it!

And no, this DAYS will be bought [!@#$%^&*] has gotta stop. People been sayin' that for YEARS and it has never happened. Why? Because Kenny Corday burned his bridges and the show is walking dead. Walking. dead. It just looks alive.

    • Really an excellent point. I'm worried about Derek but he's not working. The Duprees being too good somehow ... well, if they say it instead of be it, okay yes, I would worry but as long as they keep on being good, geeze, that's something to celebrate, not worry!!!  Party on?!
    • I blame Mitch.

    • I agree. For now. I am sure in a year's time...a new family (or old) will start to appear on the show. 
    • There's some irony in Philip being forgiven, because it forces everyone to admit that Victor was wrong to change his will.  Everyone, eventually including Xander, (I presume), seems to think it was wrong for Victor to divide his estate in Xander's favor.  I appreciated Stephanie forgiving Philip, because she's got no skin in that game.  But, Belle's line about Philip missing Xander because he misses Bo did not ring true.  I think Philip would be sad if Bo dies, but I think he's more concerned currently about Xander. I am enjoying this EJ mystery so much that I am hereby taking a vow not to read spoilers.  I am also vowing — for the last time — to stop harping on this, but: the concept of a “sepsis treatment” remains absurd. Hospitals prevent sepsis through vigilant infection control; once sepsis sets in, it causes multiple organ failures. Treatment involves supporting each failing organ individually. The notion that a single medication could magically reverse organ failure is medically laughable. However, I like the contrast of Kim going through cancer, which is incurable in their universe.  Kayla's comment on the health of both of her siblings was both heartbreaking and an interesting twist.  MBE is also totally underrated.  She is carrying the weight of so many stories.   And, I like the use of Kayla as an audience surrogate.  She's arguably the most "real" person in Salem. Kayla isn't psychic, she wasn't SORASed, she's not a billionaire, and she doesn't have a bionic eye.  So, I enjoy that we get her perspective of the nuttiness that surrounds her. However, I don't get what gives her the authority to turn down EJ's offer.  I understand that they need a hospital figurehead to show us scenes of the competition to buy the hospital.  But, unless the entire administration has been let go, the Chief of Staff wouldn't make those choices.
    • But why worry about something that might not happen? Right now, most things revolve around the Duprees. We have no idea if or how long that will continue. For now, it's working.
    • The Duprees not having any staff is a bugbear for me. They've included the background staff at the Country Club but no one at the Dupree home. Even just an extra bringing in a tray of food/drinks or responding to a request from Anita would suffice.
    • Shut up, Dante and Lois.  I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago. Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either.  Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss. And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.
    • Note to makeup - Smitty’s eyebrows, bad clamshell look.
