Members AbcNbc247 Posted July 15, 2021 Members Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) Haha... I started tuning in the summer after you. The first episode I saw was when Luis and Sheridan's boat exploded. And I really enjoyed the show back then. But those later years, even though there were still things that I l liked, was were just so all over the place. The constant non-exits of characters, Chad suddenly gay/bi, Sheridan as a villain (which I always felt would've worked had they not made her a Beth-like villain) and then DirecTV. Lol it's kind of sad. Edited July 15, 2021 by AbcNbc247 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted July 15, 2021 Members Share Posted July 15, 2021 Of course, that's when the show went completely off the rails. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LostinHarmony Posted July 15, 2021 Members Share Posted July 15, 2021 Passions is the one soap I think would work well in primetime and the cast wants to do it but I doubt it would ever happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted July 15, 2021 Members Share Posted July 15, 2021 Well, AMC is doing it. If it's a success...who knows? Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LostinHarmony Posted July 15, 2021 Members Share Posted July 15, 2021 You're right, and with Reilly passed away it would mean new writers but that reminds me of something I always think about, JER passed away just a few short months after Passions was canceled. Imagine Directv renewed the show for another year... I wonder if MarDar would have stepped in as headwriters since they worked under Jim for years, or if they would've brought someone in. I could see Ron Carlivati being a good writer for PSNS, especially since during that time he was on OLTL writing stories like the tale of two Todds, Jess/Tess/Bess/Wes and the Ford brothers were half naked all the time. And hasn't it come out since that he pitched a vampire version of OLTL as a new soap... yea he would've had a field day at Passions lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted July 15, 2021 Members Share Posted July 15, 2021 Ron C. is probably the writer in recent soap lore who is the closest to JER in tone and vision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted July 21, 2021 Members Share Posted July 21, 2021 The worst was when they were in LA summer 2003 when Gwen lost the baby. Besides that entire day started in August and lasted till thanksgiving…Lindsay Hartley wore that pink top for about two months! and they joked about this during the reunion but this was when Whitney was shot and Chad Ethan and Fox were walking around shirtless in the hospital for like two weeks!

Members Forever8 Posted July 21, 2021 Members Share Posted July 21, 2021 I remember that entire summer in LA too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted August 11, 2021 Members Share Posted August 11, 2021 I often wonder how the cast filmed one inane story after another while keeping straight faces on camera! Obviously, they knew they weren't doing Shakespeare. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted August 19, 2021 Members Share Posted August 19, 2021 Well, he has a Passions connection - at least his head does!!

Members AbcNbc247 Posted August 20, 2021 Members Share Posted August 20, 2021 The floating head! I remember actually liking him. I wish he had become a recurring character 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted August 20, 2021 Members Share Posted August 20, 2021 Yes!! I liked him, too. He should have been a recurring character. There sure were worse characters around!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 4, 2021 Members Share Posted September 4, 2021 It's up now. I may actually tune in. I did like Grease 2 and TJ Hooker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 6, 2021 Members Share Posted October 6, 2021 I don't follow Mary Elizabeth Winstead that closely so this may not be any big revelation, but she recently talked about the unpleasant Passions set and how she broke her contract after a year to get away from it.

Members Vee Posted October 6, 2021 Members Share Posted October 6, 2021 She's so talented - I liked her on the show but I had no idea how good she could be as an adult. She deserves better star vehicles, though. Her film Faults with her ex (she's now with Ewan McGregor) is especially good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
