Okay, that is the first response from Robin that made any real sense JMO. It sounds less kissing FV's ass than pointing out his real capability is budget management.

And I love that last line, don't you just love how vindicative we soap fans can be? Heck yeah Robin :-)

Why encourage people to fight a losing battle? Expelling all of this energy when it is completely useless is such a waste of time. The confirmation that you received that OLTL's cancellation was a year in the making would be indicative to accept the inevitable and move on. ABC is sticking to their guns. Hoover's decision to 'aid' soap fans is in no way deterring ABC from their decision and suggests that if more sponsors remove themselves, it will only expedite the cancellation dates.

Hoover pulling out is not something to sneeze at. When I heard this all I thought was, publicity, Hoover pretty much made thier own commercial w/ that one move, and they're pulling out on Friday, so it's not even more than a week after the initial announcement and you have a big brand pulling out, folks this isn't about replacement ads now, this is about a domino effect caused by Brian Frons and Anne Sweeney. What do you think happens if Kellogs or Nestle pulls out next. They get publicity, they get thier brand out w/o a commercial, this will not be the last sponsor to pull out. Now the decision is final by Frons but I so expect more drop outs coming.

Now what would crack me up is if Tampax pulls out.:lol:

Wow I missed so much great discussion here :angry: had fun reading it though....Loved the Kendall conversation LOL dragonflies, lone AM lovers gotta stick together ;-) LOVE her to death and will really miss seeing her on my screen daily! Seriously! Will follow her whereever she goes but somehow don't see her being on TV again much ever...she seems committed to being in NY with her husband & family. But I'll pray that she'll still do some acting on the side...

Omg SoapBoy, ICAM. I have always wanted to say this somewhere but couldn't decipher how to put it into words LOL. You said it beautifully. I feel the same as well.

Get a load of THIS explosive new report from Deadline:

http://www.deadline.com/2011/04/carrie-disney-moms-among-rejected-ideas-for-soapnet-an-insiders-perspective-on-nets-evolution-abc-soaps-demise/

Basically reaveals how Disney came to decide to shutdown Soapnet & apparantly SoapNet is no longer shutting down and Disney Jr & Soapnet could run for years. The sheer incompetence is insane. Can't wait to see how ABC responds to this report.

    • And so it's Andre and Ashley again? Why don't they go ahead and make something bad happen between them? I don't trust the stereotypical vibe. I don't.
    • I guess neither Stephanie or Leo are ever going to investigate the gaping plot holes in the Bob-ette storyline. Other random Thoughts for Thu If Sophia was going to leave Tate alone after he was faint and had a fever, thank goodness she's not planning on raising a baby! Finally, Xander expressed that this situation with Philip was not Victor's desire.  Victor clearly wrote his desires in his will right before he died, and those plans did not include Philip at Titan. I can't with the laws of Salem.  Adults with nut allergies can sue for negligence when they eat a bakery known for using pistachio in their scones, but people discuss insider trading and kidnapping like it is no big deal. It is so simple to research why they have no standing to sue to Sweet Bits (regardless of what the server said). I ignored Brady and Kate being on the board, because that was plausible.  But, Abe is on the board of directors?  That's a stretch. I'm staying mum on Versavix for today, I've had my say....    
    • I do love that the episode ended with Kat exclaiming when she was alone "Gotcha!"

      For real. Leslie is going to lock her up in a basement
    • It is amazing how everyone in GC just swaps partners and is instantly in love and their previous relationship never happened. All while everyone’s exes live in the same town and go to the exact same 4 places as each other.
    • No to Andre/Ashley. I'm not sensing any connection. Kat is playing a dangerous game going against Silk Press Sheila.
    • Today was definite a good episode day with surprising 1:1 scenes between Bill/Silk Press Sheila & SPS/Kat.  And the final long scene between SPS/Kat with the close ups and cliffhanger reminds me so much of old school P & G/Bell soaps. It fits since Judy Tate (script writer) wrote for P & G soaps for years and Zimmerman (breakdown writer) worked on both Bell soaps. I even liked the Ashley/Derek scenes only because it feels as if there is a point to the scenes (lead up to a break up perhaps).  Andre/Ashley having a scene tells me that the show is still testing them out.. and I think showing the growing disconnect between Derek/Ashley will eventually lead to the two possibly dating. NuTed.. he seems more humble and less boastful/confident than the previous Ted.  Perhaps the show felt the previous Ted couldn't play remorse/humble.. and they made the switch.  Time will tell. Lastly... it was a Dani free day

    • Goulet also had an odd way of speaking - very clipped and brisk, like she had just gotten out of a '40s film. She sounded out of breath. She had this on all her soaps. She was a better actress than Tolan and did well enough with Mary's grief over her marriage in her final week or two in the part but had no real spark.  I agree they may have found a better Mary if they had tried harder. For some reason the recasting for the Ryan kids was never what it should have been. I don't know what was going on with Barbie Siobhan. Maybe that was ABC.
    • The finale peaked at 31.1 rating when Katherine hit Bobby with her car.
