:blush: Maybe it's the vodka talking but I couldn't help but being a little touched by the gesture. It was from the heart and got the point across without sounding too clinical or polished and not at all cuckoo bananas. I wouldn't have felt bad about sending a love offering for that ad. Not a :rolleyes: but a "Well bless your heart..."

I don't think it's that bad either. Naive, perhaps, but it's a heartfelt gesture that thanks those who made soaps as well as tries to point out the appeal soaps can have. I'm glad they did the ad, as it might at least give them some closure. If that means they're labeled as crazy fans, so be it.

I think that ad is a sweet.

It's smart and to the point.

Anybody remember that ad (tribute) that ran a couple years ago when Days' Marlena and John were fired?

Now that one was a stupid piece of [!@#$%^&*] made by crazy fans.

This seems like there was at least some brain activity going on somewhere.

Even if it is pointless.

I find it very telling that this writer had to name a reality TV creation who has exhausted all avenues and is now ignored by most people (Spencer). It reminds me that, if anything, reality shows are not as popular as they were. MTV's most popular shows now involve idiots punching each other in the face or getting arrested or getting drunk - I'm sure if Frons could he'd try that for a reality show.

I love how this all implies that Franco's appearances on GH were a success. No mention of the ratings staying the same or actually falling. No mention of the show being laughed at by the national press, which also coincided with a ratings drop. Instead, they bring up stunts that happened on AMC and OLTL before Franco. Did AMC and OLTL "aspire" to Franco by going back in time?

Greenlee, the "favorite" was gone for LESS THAN A YEAR. And she has always been a nasty, vile, selfish b!tch, from the very first day.

The hooker was going to ABC in the first place

http://www.tmz.com/2011/05/04/katie-couric-cbs-negotiation-dead-60-minutes-cbs-evening-news-anchor-abc-tv-network/

Katie Couric's negotiations with CBS to stay at the network to do a syndicated talk show are officially dead -- not gonna happen ... this according to plugged-in sources at CBS.

Our sources say the breakdown occurred because CBS was unwilling to give Katie substantial involvement in the network's news operation. We're told CBS honchos were willing to give Katie pieces for "60 Minutes," but nothing more -- and Katie wasn't having it.

As a result, Katie will make a clean break from CBS and will not be doing a syndicated show for the network.

We're told ABC is now the likely future home for K.C.

    • Assuming that Marland had been allowed to write the Carrie story the way he'd envisioned, Millette would've been involved in the story. And she might've played a role in Andy Norris' return (if the speculation on that had ever materialized, and Marland loved bringing back bad boys) But he doesn't seem interested in Sara's personal life. And the women of Springfield could only be analyzed so much.
    • This better be something, because as I said, so far it's just cliches and stereotypes -- the story we've heard a thousand times about the homeless person who doesn't want a home and prefers to live on the streets.
    • @rsclassicfanforever thank you very much for the recent uploads of season 13 containing some episodes that were skipped or glitchy on YouTube!  I had a look at 3172 though and there is no audio for most of it? Would you have a copy with complete audio? Fingers crossed! Thanks again!

    • I like Margaret well enough in what I've seen of her as Paige - she is green but she has real star power.  I agree about the actor who plays Brian. He's...mostly just there. Not bad but not great.  My main issue is with the guy who plays Owen. He's just not appealing to me. I can believe Nola being obsessed with him, but he's draining to watch.  I'm surprised people objected to the quasi-incest elements as it wasn't anything that new for soaps.  Speaking of Kim, here's a rare episode of an anthology show she did called The Evil Touch.

    •   I get what you're both saying, and I think the show was lucky to have even made it that long, but I think they could have still maintained a certain audience - Second Chances did before the earthquake. CBS was an older network anyway. I think the premise of Knots was still usable, it was more the characters who were a problem - many of the older figures were played out. If the show had done a better job building up its younger cast instead of making so many poor choices in the late '80s and early '90s, they could have kept things going a little longer. 
    • I wish I cared about the homeless lady as much as everyone else seems to. After the nothing burger that was the lawsuit, this just feels like another boring Naomi storyline at Orphy Genes since she has no office.
    • That's great to hear. Thanks. I wish that was more readily available.
