seems to me that on this board and across other boards that their is a divison between the Bell soaps Y&R/B&B vs the rest of Daytime why do you think that is?

I don't even understand this question.

What do you mean a division? Between Bell Soaps and Daytime Television? Or the way the fans see them?

Here we go again with Darlotto and his obsession with the Bell's.

What use of this topic? It seems like it was made to stir up drama.

Honestly? Because the rest of daytime isn't fit to shine the Bell soaps' shoes.

How funny you use that line, which was used on an old GL clip with Bert Bauer.

If you don't know which clip I am referring too, it was used during the shows 50th Anniversry clip on the Bauer family moments. Bert and Ed talking about daddy dearest.

Oh please, the Bell soaps are like every other show, except for superior production values. Great sets, lighting, camera work and direction can do a hell of a lot mask terrible acting and poor writing. Think about it!

Terrible acting and writing? On a Bell show? Have you ever watched B&B?

WHY WHY WHY WHY does there even have to be a "versus"?!?!?!

It's like those people who argue on other TV sites about whether BSG or Lost is a better TV "mythology" show (and then the X-Files fans jump in to say why neither holds a candle to "their" show). Why can't they both be good, for different reasons?!

Why does there have to be a "versus" at all? It's not like TV shows are sports teams, and you've got a Yankees/Red Sox thing going on.

I'll never get it...

Agreed!

(But then again, I don't even understand "versus" like "US vs. Iraq" or "Gay marriage vs. defense of marriage" or ... so I may be just downright un-American in agreeing with you.)

Well, back in the days before JER ruined soaps for everyone (and I mean EVERYONE), not only did soaps have mainstream respectability, but they had street cred too. Most inner city gangs were split over which soap it's members followed. Perhaps you were too young to remember newspaper headlines like "Murdered for watching the wrong soap" and tv news exposes featuring victim's family members sobbing "My baby waz killed 'cause he was be caught watchin' General Hospital". Believe me, those days were brutal. As time went on, the Bell Soap gangs formed a pact to bring down the other soap gangs. Their wicked union worked and to this day, the animosity between the non-Bell soaps and Bell soaps lingers on through internet message forums.

Now you know but ssssshhh, don't tell anyone.

Definitely the Post of the Day...

Immaturity, perhaps?

I mean, I opened this thread up thinking that there was going to be a thought provocative opening post... HA! What an oafy dummybutt am I, huh?
