Members DRW50 Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 There was so much misogyny on ATWT during his tenure. Jen giving up her virginity to some guy she barely knew just because Hogan thought the idea would be a kick (or he said something along these lines to the press), most of the stories with psycho Julia, turning Barbara into some gasping fossil hidden behind a veil and who lived only for her son (at least when Bell did this with Vanessa Prentiss she had always been that way), Jessica being humiliated in court by Marshall Travers, then being seduced by him, then he raped her, then she soon began fighting with best friend Margo over that sleazy sports reporter. Craig stalking Lucy, framing Sierra's fiance, and then the fiance was killed (Craig's punishment was to be put in a monastery where he briefly felt somewhat guilty for what he'd done). Eventually it just became numbing. No warmth, no friendship, no balance to the stories, poor pacing, little respect for history, poor introduction of new characters. Victor already lost a child, and a wife, last year, and sex with Ashley made him happy again. I'm sure he'll be very angry and hurt but as soon as another model comes along, he'll probably be fine. Ashley is the one who will pay the permanent consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 And yet the show was in the top 3 in the ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MarkH Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Yup I gave you kudos upthread. I totally agree. Tell us how the stuff that has been keeping you away from the board are working out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 No problemo. I never liked Marshall Travers. He was very creepy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Not if MJ steals Sharon's baby and gives it to Vashely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 The show needs to can the quad of Kevin, Amber, Jana and Daniel. Those 4 get the WORST storylines and I see no hope for them. Actually Daniel is viable but the rest, not so much. They are all incredibly stupid characters and not even entertaining I thought MJ was talking to a real cat but that thing was a stuffed animal. Loved it! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cara mia Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Cashton, kudos on Patty Jane. People -- if the baby switch happens, remember I called it first! ME ME ME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Yawn.... I have to laugh at being the father of Sharon's spawn, since so many fanbases didn't want that to happen. I told you all it would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cara mia Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 I want Jack to be Summer's dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Since the crappy writing team on this show has made mockery of it, I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 I would mind Kevin, Amber and Jana written out. I would keep Daniel though. Find him a hot guy to flirt with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Don't worry, that's coming soon enough. Since MAB is all about undoing LML's mistakes, instead of forming compelling new stories to progress this show into the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cara mia Posted June 11, 2009 Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 Yes, write out Amber, Kevin & Jana. Make Daniel gay and then you've got P3, Adam, Rafe & Daniel to create the gay version of the Quad of Doom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
