I found DOOL more fun then. The island with the force field and the ever fab Jan Spears is what got me hooked on DOOL. Now I see DOOL as half great and half suck. The great is Victor and the Stefano and their feud. The bad is EJ, Sam and Nicole and the ABC style of writing where you have airhogs on perpetually, worthless women who only define themselves by their babies, and couples who basically have nothing to talk about but are on front burner anyway. I'd rather watch Tony and John sword fight under a volcano than listen to Nicole and EJ discuss their relationship for the 400th time.

I loved that. I started watching soaps with GH and Luke battling it out against a baddie for a magical sword that could rule the world or whatever, and to me OLTL was never better than Eterna and the two Bo Buchanans. So after a decade and a half of wandering lost watching dreary medical dramas and nauseating baby sagas, I found DOOL and it was the most I could hope for. JER would just go from genre to genre, mystery-women's prison-comic book heroics--and I was mesmerized. And then just when it looked like the story was over he threw in a giant tidal wave!

The only thing I ask in a serial is that it be serialized. I don't need mature human drama or even families or romance. That's fine, but no more or less fine than silly superhero sagas or zombies starring in a musical. It's all genre and all genres are created equally.

Since he left, 31 flavors got trimmed down to about three. It's just babies, babies and more babies. I think since JER left Sami has had 3 kids, and thats all Nicole ever talks about is this kid. I do like the feud though. I will give the hack that. That is good stuff. But the rest of the show is becoming FF material.

I used to really despise the character of Nicole back in the day as well. I hated it how she told Eric she had cancer and stole him away from Greta. Yuck!

But her 2nd run on the show is sort of different. imo She's one of my favorite characters these days. Wishing for a better SL for her though.

    • A very good week for male eye candy on GH. New Michael is beautiful, Curtis's arms looked great in that polo shirt, Cody looks even more handsome with his new haircut AND we got Marco in swim shorts rocking his lovely bod and chest fur.

    • Yeah when Jamey Giddens did breakdowns for DAYS, he would sometimes state in tweets that specific things were his idea that he had pitched to Ron.
    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.
