Members P.J. Posted May 15, 2009 Members Share Posted May 15, 2009 Y'know I love this show...but these stories suck. I couldn't believe TAIC wasted Maura for two days literally standin' behind the menfolk as they whipped 'em out and decided who was Johnny's father. It's the dumbasses grew up reading Cliff Notes instead of books. And GAWD, I wish they'd just can Lindstrom already. HE SUCKS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SpiritualJunkie Posted May 15, 2009 Members Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hahaha...you just basically summed up the state of the show in that sentence. But good to hear I've been missed! Ugh. I didn't even like Alex Chando's Maddie. Didn't Lily sleep with Mike? Holden & Lily have become a couple by default. It doesn't seem like ATWT has supercouples, but if they have any, it's these two and Carly & Jack. I've never understood the appeal of either, though. That's one thing I hate about the Katie character. More often than not, she's portrayed as the victim. Other characters sing her praises. We're *supposed* to like her...no matter what she does. I liked her when she first came on the show...back when people didn't trust her character. I hate how quickly she's become "Saint Katie." Seems like a lot of ATWT fans aren't liking Damian as a good guy, but at least half the town is still treating him like a criminal. Today's (Thursday) show bored me. Can't say I really care about any of the characters that were on. I like Henry & Vienna, but Katie & Brad can both take a hike. Parker & Liberty were married? What are they - fifteen?? What happened to JJ? Oh, God...do not tell me that they are thinking of pairing Damian with Meg! Pleeease, no!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted May 15, 2009 Members Share Posted May 15, 2009 Yep, horny Lily jumped on the Tool. NuMike was okay....but a lot of people thought he looked way too young for the part. I think TIIC assume a lot of people are still attached sentimentally to Holden and Lily. I even liked them when they were young...but they'd run out of steam even while Martha was still around. I honestly think it was a mistake to recast Lily without a long, LONG period between Byrne and Beck. An "end" to the marriage would have made the Holden/Carly affair a lot less disgusting and a lot more understandable. I think a lot of ATWT's trouble with couples now stems from the fact there's no buildup to a relationship and when you get it, it's destroyed in a matter of months. And even if a couple manages to get past that, then they're backburnered. Brad and Katie got married and disappeared (at least it seems like it) between sex romps. Henry and V have never really had a story other than sex romps. Don't get me wrong, I'm actually glad I don't have to see a lot of Jack and Janet---but the lack of romance leaves a gaping hole in the show. They haven't given Damian much to do besides beg Luke for mercy. Parker and Lib skipped to an imaginary state that gives 16 yr olds the right to marry without parental permission. Carly and Craig managed to get to the justice of the peace before the "I do's", but Parker went on a tirade, listing all of Carly's mothering failures and claimed he was afraid of her controlling his trust fund. (Parker was upset because Jack had finally got fed up with his 'tude and was going to use trust fund money to send him to a private school, so he got an injunction, then heard emanicipation would be easier if he got married--or wanted to--so he "proposed" to Libby) The judge threatened to throw Carly in jail if she touched her son, and went on with the ceremony. JJ got shipped off---he supposedly wanted to go to private school and got a scholarship. I don't think he even hung around to see Jack marry Janet. Uhm....I'll see if Carly can't ship you a crate or two of Midnight Sun vodka. It's her preferred drink of choice, although lately, she's getting tanked on everything.

Members P.J. Posted May 15, 2009 Members Share Posted May 15, 2009 Quick impressions.... FLOVED seeing CZP/Barbara again!!! FLOVED the way Carly just hauled off and slapped the piss out of Craig. I just wish it was because he's an !@#$%^&*], not because she was protecting her vodka like a momma Russian bear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members UKBoi Posted May 16, 2009 Members Share Posted May 16, 2009 I honestly can't believe he's lasted this long given the frantic pace ATWT moves at. Also, I can't believe NuNuLucy is gone again. I didn't like the actress, she just didn't embody the whole "I'm Lucinda Walsh's granddaughter, bitches!" spirit that Peyton List had. If Chrishell Stause leaves AMC I would love to see them pick her up for this role, or Heidi Mueller from Passions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members P.J. Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 TODAY is a day to watch, at least if you love Maura...Carly unleashes on Craig in a way that's so good, I felt bad for her. And almost for Craig. And I hate the bastard. Eek....the Ali/Casey/Hunter stuff....not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 So glad I tuned out a few weeks ago. Every time comes into play, I just have immense hate for this show. It never changes! I feel bad for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 The only good part about today's show was seeing Hunter shirtless. Parker must die!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 No, you're not wrong. Hunter needs a) some man-scaping and a gift certificate to a gym with a tanning booth. I wanted to snort when Em said she'd "dated a younger man, and it wasn't for her." Let's see....originalPaul, Chris, Casey...it took her a while to decide "younger men" weren't for her.

Members P.J. Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 *eyeroll* I'm so glad Paul stands out in the middle of Oakdale Mall and explains to anyone within listening distance that Sally, the babysitter I paid off to make Meg look like a negligent mother has returned to town. Gosh knows poor Damian might have mistaken "the babysitter" for any regular sitter Paul and/or Meg had ever employed. My ears are bleeding after listening to Katie and Brad yell their way through the entire episode. V and Henry's message to their baby was heartbreaking though.
