Not to mention, the show got even stupider and was way past its peak by then...

They also kinda screwed themselves with the Kimberly explosion season finale. Much like Marlena's possession on DOOL, once you go to that far out a place (And believe me - I *LOVED* Kimberly blowing up the building. What an amazing season that was!), it's really hard to sustain it and out-do yourself. DOOL definitely had the same problem post-Reilly. It's great in the short-term, but in the long-term, not so much.

I'm not sure whether to be pissed or amused that it was Lisa Rinna of all people who said it. I'll probably be both. STFU!

How does this extremely annoying woman stay in the press? Who is really going to go and pay for a book written by this untalented whore. And yes, whore as was described by a poster before.

No more dead than her career. At least Bloom/Frons/Corday/Bell/Cahill aren't running around Los Angeles streets wearing sandwich boards that say "Watch our show!"

RH Negative, reporting for duty.

She has a show? I wonder if she would think that if she was employed in the genre still. Anyone still in it has hope it will continue on for a while longer.

She's stupid and annoying as hell with those tub stopper lips of hers....if I have to hear her say "That's HAWT" one more time, I think I'll slit my wrists. Wouldn't mind going down on her hubby, though!

I tell you what....she is a strange bird but I am not going to make fun of her on this one!! 5 years maybe a bit too quick to predict for such a thing to happen but I will not be surprised if it does happen. Soaps are not EVOLVING and apparently longtime viewers who are the ones keeping soaps alive do not like the idea of evolving as well. But apparently it seems even longtime viewers could be getting fed up as well, not a good sign.

This genre is fighting an uphill battle and what it all boils down to is the "bottom line". I figured Guiding Light was going to go soon, I thought they had another year at least, but it appears CBS Corp. got spooked at how much money their TV division is losing so yeah, I don't think I will "mock" her...this time.

Soaps don't need to evolve. This attempt to do so is what is killing them. The number one soap for the last 20 years is the one that's changed the LEAST, and that says it all.

LOL! No, I was referencing how she was on street corners, with signs saying "Honk if you want me on the new Melrose Place". To get herself hired. I was just saying you don't see any of TIIC pullign stunts like that to get people to watch their soaps.

I never liked Lipzilla's Billie. I preferred Krista Allen.

Oh brother

Yeah, well, her face will be unrecognizable in 2.

:lol:

:lol:

I agree. That is just too funny.

Yeah, they do need to evolve like everything else on TV or they become extinct, the networks will continue to research and try to come up with an easier and cheaper product to replace them, probably doing that now. I am eagerly anticipating what they are going to do about replacing GL. And of course Y&R has been the #1 soap for the last 20 years but I am no longer impressed by that considering the group and the state of the soaps we have now. The other shows are almost so bad that they make Y&R look way better than it really is. Nothing says we have to settle for mediocrity than such a comparison! Soaps have lost that spark to pull newer viewers in and are draining the loyal viewers that they have now. Heck my own mother has now stopped watching soaps because of the redundancy and now watches other things.

And by "whore", I mean the way she whores herself out on street corners TO GET JOBS ON MELROSE - not a whore like a hooker.

Yeah. Sure ya did. ;-)

ETA: And the part about getting "jobs on Melrose"? Very unfortunate choice of words. (Oh, the stories I could tell you....)
