The sad part is those scenes could have been much better. You know something is wrong when Colleen steals the limelight from Victoria. Heinle has got to go (and NO MarkH not to B&B, but off television indefinitely!).

Not necessarily. I'll cop to fake-liking a few shows in order to "fit in"; and I'll cop to fake-hating a few, too.

Of course, that was when I still was in high school.

BAM! :lol: That's what I'm taking about. It's about fitting in and acceptance. You'll much more likely be accepted in a new community by being positive and faking a little bit you like something than the other way around. Simple. Nothing wrong with it until it reaches a certain point. :)

Okay, let's do a poll and I'll keep track of the results.

A) Who here likes the show but is faking it and not really liking it?

B) Who here hates the show but is faking it and really likes the show?

C) Who here is genuine about their opinions on the show?

I wanna see if Sylph's theory is right. If he is, I'll back off. :)

I totally agree with this, MTSRocks. I don't know why anybody would put that much important on a message board. I love you guys, don't me wrong. But not so much. LOL!

But back on topic - how much would I have loved to see ANYBODY else go up against Peter Bergman in that Victoria scene today. Such a bummer...

I don't know about faking it, but I have been trying desperately to like the show and to enjoy every single part of it for months now.... To just watch and be entertained. Not that I have been very successful. I have enjoyed many individual episodes, but the overall feeling is one of constant disappointment....

    • Yes!!! Mona feels  like one of my aunts, love the way she carries herself. Loved seeing Eva pop-up at the gambling place.  Monday was all around good soap. Can't remember the last time an entire episode held my interest.  Loving the fallout and reverberations from Ted and Shea-Butter Sheila's affair

      . Tricia Mann Grant is 90s early 2000s quality FINE. As nice as it would've been to see Anita embrace Eva, I'm glad she didn't because we can squeeze a lot more years of conflict out of Eva, Leslie and the Duprees.   Lauren & Sheila, Viki & Dorian, Katherine & Jill all gave us good conflict for decades. Hopefully this follows suit. I understand the concern. Right now there's an issue of quality of black representation on shows more so than quantity of black shows. I'd like to see more predominantly black sci-fi, legal, political, supernatural or medical dramas over the typical who is sleeping with who. However, this is a soap, and this is what happens on soaps. White soap characters do these things all the time, but have the luxury of being seen as individuals, not representations of their entire race. Husbands/fathers like Todd Manning, Victor Newman and Asa Buchanan cheat, lie and swindle all the time but aren't seen as a commentary on white men. Black characters like Ted and New Dollar Bill should be able to do the same.
    • And that area of the DMV has a high-end glamorous casino the MGM National Harbor. 
    • Even under the new writers, Jamey episodes are the shortest and the weakest A lot of people were unnecessarily clowny and bitchy today. There was a lot of fluff and filler too. And the dialogue was a little… ehhh as well. But welcome back, Kevin! It’s been a long time lol his return still seems really random but I don’t mind it. Philip’s actions make sense to me based on everything that’s happened to him lately and it could possibly set up more tension between him and Xander/Alex. And I wouldn’t mind seeing him and Kevin team up. I thought the actor did a good job too. Too bad that they couldn’t get Robert Benvenisti back though. I didn’t realize it in 2001 but he was hot

      And, we got the word that Arianna wants to come home. I’m looking forward to that, and seeing her relationships with Gabi, Marlena, etc. on display and I hope that

      As for Rachel’s birthday party… was Days hinting at something that we’ve been speculating about since EJ was shot?

    • Portugal qualifying was the only shocker. I'm really happy for Iceland. IMO, the automatic finalists – Spain, Switzerland and Italy – had the best performances. I love the studio version of Azerbaijan, but on stage, it was a disaster.
