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:

    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
