This miserable basterd thinks the public, mainly young adults bank on watching reality TV. Claims loyalty to soaps and sitcoms doesn't exist. Shows that had 40+ yrs. in loyal fanbase daily he trashes but he thinks cooking daily and reality TV is more impactful. IDEK why ABC keeps this puke employed.dry.gif

Day 1 after the Guillotine. Feeling eager to do what we do better than any other daytime show. Now we can tell OUR stories without the hooded monster with an ax breathing down our necks. Head up, shoulders back, say my words and don't bump into the furniture! 3 hours ago

Does anything/anyone have a loyal fanbase anymore that airs on television? The only thing I can think of is sports, and viewers are courted to support their team. (There are so few science fiction shows left and soaps are about gone.)

I appreciate everyone culling the news. And no I am glad that we aren't getting the runaround like the P&G shows did to the fans giving them hope for their shows being picked up by another outlet.

Obviously the Number One and Two shows on the air when they are in season - Dancing with the Stars and American Idol. I watch

both, have every season, and will continue to watch them. They are Must-See TV for me and I look forward every time they

come back on the air.

Brandon Buddy on Twitter (I just lumped all the OLTL-related ones together):

wow! what a crazy day! stay positive! Now we all move on to the next chapter.... this was fun! same time tomorrow? ; ) night everyone! Very sorry to all that have watched and been so dedicated to OLTL. I'm just glad that i can say that i was once part of something special!!! as long as your here with me on this crazy ride i will do everything in my power to please and entertain u. not making any promises ; ) ha btw i want to thank everyone so much for all of your support over the years. i wouldn't be here if it weren't for all of u! in my opinion i don't think the show can end w/o a starr and cole reunion. but thats just me but what do i know ; ) I'm not sure how they're planning on ending the show but it would be an honor to go back and rock out some scenes with Ms. Alderson ; ) Wow! What happened today? OLTL canceled? Hmmmm. Not really sure what to say. Obviously shocked. Seems everyone else feels the same.

You just gotta love Robin Strasser, lol:

Robin Strasser (Dorian, OLTL) is among the many actors upset about the show's cancellation. "It's an enormous sense of loss, a cavalier and utterly irresponsible decision," the actress tells Digest. "They're not thinking straight."

    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
