CBS daytime was just fine with 4 soaps and fine when CBS had GL and ATWT on their daytime and if it wasn't broken for decades, don't mess with it - CBS made a big mistake when they took off our Light and now the World and if CBS doen't think it will not matter when they lose generations of viewers all I can say is what goes around - comes around and CBS will not have GL/ATWT viewers.

:mad:

I like Beatles and chocolate, do not like squid or frog legs - GL is like the fab Four and chocolate to me and game shows are like squid that taste like a tire and frog legs that made me sick for days, I am on break and could really need my Light - however I am watching the World till the end, but I am not watching anything on CBS daytime that come on before or any show that comes on after, because I am not interested.

:P

think leaving Edmund/jeffie storyline up in the air and viewers wondering what happened to both - may have given some the idea - that we would see Eddie/jeffie again - however I doubt jeffie will ever come home - since he can't hit the side of a barn - he probably will never kill Eddie and of course I am sitting with Eddie in front of a fireplace drinking hot chocolate and jeffie sneaks up with a gun and Eddie spies Mr. Agent Man and says "Mr. O'Neal sit down and have some hot chocolate with us."

:rolleyes:

Finally got my new iPod Touch set up and figured out and watched Edmund clips and he looked really good on the iPod of course I would have loved to watched new Eddie stuff on new GL shows, but GL classics are the next best thing to watch and it is so cool to watch and carry around and it is nice to listen to all my favorite music.

:wub:

    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
    • I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.

    • It seems like a setup for failure to review a single episode of a soap, but Cleveland Amory was a foolish man.  His taste was so predictable, that one wondered why bother reviewing a medium he so clearly disliked. (found on Facebook retro TV group) Another case in point of his misogyny from his review of Dark Shadows (Can you imagine the magazine with the widest circulation in the country insulting its customer in this way today?)

    • They could easily be re-created, or even re-shot in different ways, especially if they were re-shooting scenes at some point, as well.
    • The Ted recast really is a shame because now they won't be able to do flashbacks to the best scenes the show has done to date.
    • That would be an AMAZING twist.
