So, I’m watching 1988 right now and I just learned that Alex was conceived on a hay stack in Neil’s stables 

Plus, I gotta admit that these scenes of Jane and Wally together made me feel a little uncomfortable

But it also shows how impossible (and ridiculous) it is for everyone to believe that Victor is Alex’s father because at that moment and pretty much the entire time that Angelica was able to get pregnant, Victor was in the hospital recovering from a gunshot wound. 

So, unless Justin now believes that Angelica drugged Victor or something and then climbed on for a ride, it’s not possible for anyone to believe this.

It's not offensive. It is an opinion which I happen to agree with. Fan campaigns can work if the show made the decision they are campaigning to reverse. Without going into specifics, there are other reasons Bo and Hope aren't on the show, and it isn't because DAYS doesn't want them.

My opinion of twitter/X campaigns and fan wars is the same as Disney-adults, they are both childish.  A healthy distance is a much more satisfying approach to fandom.  Shows don't need to bend to my sensibility, nor do I need to feel that I shaped the creative effort.  A mature ego respects boundaries and knows that para-social relationships are not a substitute for sharing opinions amongst peers.

And taking opposite opinions personally does not promote an entertaining debate amongst informed adults.

There is no way that from the outside one could know what they do or do not know. That's why I said it was an assumption.

Saying that someone is delusional when you don't know anything about what they do or do not know or even intend, to me, smacks of some fans trying to judge other people's fandom. There is a long history of fans communicating to shows about what they want to see. Are we now to think that all of those fans providing feedback have all been suffering under some mental defect? Having delusions is a serious psychological issue. It's not the same as saying you think someone's efforts are misguided. Delusions go hand in hand with hallucinations.

To me fan campaigns have little in common with fan wars. I have no idea what you are talking about "Disney-adults." But I completely disagree that fan campaigns are childish or immature. Fan wars, sure, they are. I do happen to agree with you when it comes to some unusual fan activity when they are trying to take credit for what is actually the show's actions. Now here, I don't understand your point about opposite opinions in debate. In constructive discussion & debate a whole range of opinions can be accounted for.

    • That final scene of Marlena playing John’s voicemail over and over again really got to me

    • -- Tamara Tunie was good today, but can we hold back on handing out Emmys? I'm not seeing that yet. -- So Anita has Barbara's entire letter committed to memory, yet it took her DECADES to reach out to Tracy and Sharon? Uh....ok. I don't get the impression that THE DUPREES spent a lot of time thinking about the little people. -- We again heard "Articulettes Strong," this time in the letter. Make it stop already. -- I'll wait and see on this "Anita's Sin" story. My bottom line is that it's unfair to point blame when someone takes his/her own life. -- I thought Tomas looked fine af in that suit today, and that the fit was perfect. -- Why is Basic Ashley kissing her boyfriend while at work in the hospital? I find that inappropriate and ridiculous. Ashley still doesn't act like someone in love. -- The 3-way conversation among Ashley, Derek, and Andre was awkward as hell. -- Hayley was embarrassing for taking her pregnancy test to Dani's. Dani is embarrassing to harp on it. These two need to stay away from each other. -- Dani treats Andre like crap. What he sees in her beyond the physical, I have no idea. No way is either of these two in love. -- Also clueless? Bill and Hayley for thinking Naomi would love hearing about the pregnancy.  
    • Susan Lucci was on bereavement vacation because her on screen mom had recently passed away so she was off canvas when this tornado occurred.
    • Thanks @YRfan23 Wow I didn’t realize the cast has gotten that tiny either which is absolutely pitiful.    Surprised that Budig is still on as Taylor barely watched any lol tbh but nonr of the recent daily recaps ever mention her anymore I figured she was out the door soon. 
    • I love the yellow bumpers with the crew lol. That's Donna Lewis as the music at the beginning! I haven't heard her in ages. R.J. and Tea were so hot and so underrated. I remember seeing the bit with the Buchanan men promising to show Max a good time in his bedroom and it's still hysterical.
    • I think a lot would've gotten over it the same way they got over the Trina recast, especially since it became swiftly clear NAC is never coming back. The key issue, we agree, is Frank. As long as Trina is onscreen he's not touching that. As for Nikolas, honestly I'd kill him off. Adam Huss has done a wonderful job in a very difficult situation but I don't think he has leading man power for a soap opera (not because he's gay, but he's very intense and I don't think it translates to potential lighter or romantic material; his flirting with Ava briefly was strange) and I was holding out for Tyler to recover and return someday. I am not interested in Nikolas #5 or 6.
    • AlwaysAMC - Your posts are a crack up; they make me laugh.  Thanks.  I especially like how detailed you get enthused about something, and how you curtly and flippantly you reject that which you find subpar.  LOL.   What's great about Annie is her increasing rooting value as time goes on.   I often wanted Annie to be victorious.  Watros infuses her with an energy and a vulnerability that really works, even at times when neither should. Soap viewers often remember and talk about the Big Moments, which is fine, but what I also find really interesting is the 1-2 week time frame that follows the Big Moment.  Later, there are scenes between Annie and Rick involving a trip to the hospital (no way am I telling you why and what happens - hopefully no one does) that I think are as well done as the Big Moment.  Astonishing stuff. Oh..and to reiterate...I ain't telling you sh*t.  You'll just have to suffer!  Ain't anticipation grand?  LOL.
    • @alwaysAMC Glad you made it to the soft rock theme. I share your disgust for the Gilly story, as many viewers did. Gilly was never a big character, but she was a part of why the early '90s feel real and different for GL, and she deserved a much better exit. This was also the last worthwhile role Amelia Marshall had on daytime (I don't even know if Passions fans would disagree). This was also Petronia Paley's only major chance at story and as someone who always appreciated her work, I'm sorry it did not go better for her. And I liked Charles Ewing a great deal on Loving, so I was even more unhappy with how they treated Griffin. It's a deeply offensive role, in many ways.  As for slapping, you may enjoy this, if you are able to find anything onscreen underneath all the ham. It really goes into hysteria in the second clip. As a bonus, you also get a quick glimpse of why the Billy and Mindy recasts were not accepted by viewers. One positive I will say about this clip is that it's one of the few times I remember the show making clear that Roger was able to defend himself if he had to do so.
