Members Eric83 Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 Seriously? LMAO Passions may not have been Shakespeare but it was entertaining and 2000-2003, was so damn good television. Give me Passions over 5 washed up women talking about bland topics with even more washed up guests. Christie Brinkley? Jennifer Lopez? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted October 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 What was go damn good about... Theresa: ETHAN! OH ETHAN! OH ETHAN! Gwen: Stay away from my man. Ethan: Don't talk to Theresa that way! X 1,000,000? I'm not saying I "like" The Talk, but I agree with Max. I'd rather watch a hamster in a wheel for an hour than to watch Passions. Same desired effect, repetition. And probably cheaper to produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 I don't know if daytime has 9 years left to wait. I won't be that surprised if 9 years from now, daytime is entirely made up of reruns. It's only a matter of time. What else is Leah Remini there for?

Members JackPeyton Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 Brilliant post. Cat DaytimeFan, my dear... have i told you lately that i love you? Because i do. :wub: Lets not forget tho how long it took the view to get watchable and in depth and good. With 6 or 7 hosts still comes only one set, one crew thats prob 1/4th the size of a soap, less writers, etc all around. Still much cheaper than any soap even on huge budget cuts, i bet.

Members quartermainefan Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 I didn't need NPR to tell me it was an insult to women. But even more, the people who insult women the most are women themselves for watching this garbage. There is literally nothing any of these women can possibly say that is even halfway interesting, and to watch it damages the brain. It's shows like this that can make a man wonder just what is wrong with women. To think that someone would have the idea that this show would appeal to me and my demographic would be the height of insults, and I am glad I am not the one being insulted. Who cares that these people are mothers? Where is the show starring cousins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 Outside of watching Star Jones or Rosie O'Donell in trainwreck mode, when has The View ever been watchable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 haha, true story. actually i really enjoyed it from 2007-2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted October 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 I was quite fond of the show from inception to even now. Meredith Vieira rocked The View and she was fun but she always kept it classy. She left at a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Saving ATWT Posted October 22, 2010 Members Share Posted October 22, 2010 I expected better but, overall, a good start. Ironic, ATWT needed a 2.1 to stay on air. I don't blame CBS for wanting to make more money and ending ATWT and GL were smart moves for the network; however, it sucks for me. CBS has always had trouble with morning shows (The Early Show; CBS This Morning; The Morning Program; CBS Morning News) and I've never understood why. The Early Show isn't any worse than GMA and The Talk will probably be similiar to The View. Either way, Talk is here to stay and, if it does well, could easily be expanded into a 2 hour mid-day show: Watch out Y&R! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
