As The World Turns Discussion Thread

Lord..she was terrible on ATWT (though a lot of people liked her..) I would dread her scenes of sloowww talking and then spitting everything out..if she had a scene with Lily talking about Lily's problems the world "literally" stopped..uggh.

However, I have to say that Tremors is a cult classic and is actually good, it is in on the joke without being super campy and Carter is also actually good in it..as her character is no damsel in distress.

That 2019 mug shot.

Poor things looks like she had spent a few years in a Montegan cell!

 

Seriously, that is sad.

Count me in the minority who loved OG Craig and Sierra (*shrugs*).

I missed the Locher Room stream. Did you catch it @Soapsuds?

Just saw the stream count…yikes! Alan’s channel is definitely losing steam, he’s getting so little engagement.

[Soapsuds]

Count me in too as a Craig and Sierra fan!

No, I missed it!  I had something unexpected come up and I wasn't able to see it live. I'm going to watch it later tonight.

Alan's stream count has gone down. He's not a very good interviewer. Some have just lost interest or too busy to watch them anymore.

[SoapDope]

I barely recognize her.

Even when he has guests I am excited about seeing, I have to be honest, because of his manner of conducting these discussions, I lose interest pretty quickly unless the guests take over the conversation and relegate him to the sidelines. It’s a struggle for me to watch his videos. I still have not watched the recent video featuring Melanie’s interview. And the clips he uses are in a total state of deterioration.

I don't watch them live, like I used to. I just end up catching them later.

I'm torn about my opinion of Alan.  I agree, he is not a very good interviewer and he has some bad interviewing habits he needs to rid himself of.  BUT, at least he has this podcast and is able to attract the big names we all love.  Nobody else seems to be stepping up to the plate.  So I try to be generally supportive of him and his podcast.  Is it perfect?  Far from it.  But look at all the wonderful guests he has had.  He has coaxed a lot of our old favorites out of retirement to spend an hour with us.

Frankly, I'm not surprised that interest in "The Locher Room" is waning.  Like y'all said, he's just not very good at interviewing people.  Plus, it seems like for every interesting guest he does land, such as Steven Weber, he gets twice as many return guests; and honestly, in most of those cases, there's nothing more to talk about after their initial appearances.

[DRW50]

We've been talking about him having low view counts for years, so I guess them falling further isn't a surprise. I think he had a brief buzz during the pandemic but frankly I'm surprised and somewhat impressed he is even still hanging on.

At least one positive of needing viewer engagement is he used that hot photo of Scott Bryce as bait.

(Steven too but he's never really done anything for me, although he was fun on Wings, at times)

[Contessa Donatella]

This is a very odd thing to say. The reason he began these Locher Room zoom chats was specifically because of the pandemic & when he got going he had pretty amazing engagement. 

[DRW50]

It's not odd. We are actually agreeing.

Hey, we all like what we like. I'm a Katie fan and Lord knows I'm basically the only one on here. LOL

 

I'll agree that for many Tremors is a cult classic. I know so many people who love it. It was just never a favorite of mine. My cult classic is Clue: The Movie but that's another one that is controversial. Either you love it or you hate it!

Your comment about Sierra and Lily is hilarious. Although I eventually grew to love Lily (in that way like I have friends I love but who can really get on my nerves sometimes) but teenage Lily was somewhat a little too much.
