Yeah, but life isn't fair. Just like you're in a recession, the people keeping these soaps alive are in a recession and have to make money. There is nothing wrong with them charging, if it comes to that. People pay for movies and to watch shows on cable it is no different.

I see. So how much was it online?

Does anybody else have a Roku? We moved and haven't hooked it up in a few months, but we get Netflix instant, shows/movies we purchased through Amazon.com, as well as some other random channels on there. It would be nice and convenient if we could get AMC/OLTL via Roku so we could watch on the 60 in. TV and not even have to futz with a computer.

You guys already knew this was going to be pay-to-watch. Either pay or watch the free stream but stop bitching.

I'm very excited they'll be working throughout the city and pushing the envelope on content.

I never paid to watch stuff at WOST. I was a member there until it went to pay to watch. I dont watch or pay for Venice either. I am not going to pay to watch something that is on my computer. Had the shows stayed on the air and were pay for view ...I might consider it on tv set. When will people every learn. They are still trying to attract younger hip audience instead of catering to their real fans...the long dedicated viewers that still watch now on ABC. That's why all the soaps are in the gutter. They dont care to produce a good product. Instead they want to produce edge stuff that will bring in the teen scene....I guess they have money to pay for the soaps online....

Whatever the case, I hope the set up is as simple and user-friendly as possible. JMO, but that's why I was hoping for less episodes because finding the discipline to watch and not get super behind may be an issue for me (and others). For instance, thinking back on the P&G AOL channel, it could be a little daunting staring at the 27 newly uploaded episodes of Texas you had to watch if you let yourself get behind. Plus, the episodes may only be available for a set number of days. It would also be nice if the system was super personalized and you could check off the episodes you've watched.

    • Keith D Robinson is 49. Maurice Johnson is 46.
    • I hope they give him more to do than just be a prick as you say. I can see how viewers would like him because the actor is so charming despite the character being such an absolute pain.    I would agree. And there was also the undercurrent of Raven and Draper sort of flirting with each other. The actors play that attraction and it worked so well in that scene. 
    • Daniel Cosgrove is PERFECT as the sleezy politician. This might be my favorite role of his. All of these people keeping Kristina’s secret is so annoying. I really want her to pay.
    • What did happen to Beth between 86 and 89? Did she have amnesia?
    • I actually thought he came off as younger. It's so hard to buy Martin as Nicole and Ted's son unless they had him when they were 12.
    • @chrisml Isn't remarkable that, on a soap whose brand is built on twists and mysteries, that Raven's last straw was as simple as Logan saying that she was incapable of loving Jamey.  In the episode when Raven exit's and leaves Jamey with April, I can remember feeling the subtext that Raven is also trying to talk herself into leaving him behind.  There's so much in that little scene.  She's trying to stick it to Logan for saying she was a bad mother.  She's both granting April's wish, and damning her with the old adage of being careful what she wished for.  And, she's hinting to Draper that she's going to boff his father. It remains my favorite scene, and it still blows my mind that was not the end of that episode.  
    • Oh lord not Drew just figured out it was both Nina and Portia that set him up. Willow WILL never leave this man. Ric taking the case purely just to spite Sonny is [!@#$%^&*].ing hilarious.
    • And in addition to Patti being de-aged, she was no longer a nurse, divorced from Len(fair enough) and her two children were not seen and barely mentioned. So basically she was a totally new character. For newer viewers it didn't matter but any loyal viewers would have been wondering about all the changes with Patti. Sarah Whiting always puzzled me. The writers finally decide to acknowledge Jo's family and do so by making up a never mentioned adopted teen. Why not just bring in Tracey, Jo's actual grandaughter? As for Liza, perhaps it would have been wise to rest the character when Sherry left. They were big shoes to fill and her Liza was so identified with Travis. I don't recall what was going on in the story at that time but if they knew Sherry was leaving, write it so Liza would leave town to care for an ailing Janet and take a breather with the character for a few months.
    • Ahh interesting. Yeah, that's sad for A-M. I will say, he and Nick became fast friends when Susan started working at Spaulding. A-M/Lucy/Nick/Susan had a lot of double dates in those 7 months. A-M was Nick's best man at his wedding to Susan, which now that I think about it, is odd that he wouldn't have considered Fletcher. I remember those two were so close at the paper, and even living together with Ben. Once Tangie left SF, Nick left the paper, and Fletcher/Holly were rarely seen... so I guess they felt that friendship wasn't shown often enough anymore (which again, lazy writing).
    • I honestly don't think Alan-Michael ever really had a friend on the show. Maybe Cameron or Samantha, but otherwise... *Cameron was a high school friend who ended up dating teenage Dinah after she broke up with A-M. Samantha is Phillip's biological sister, who A-M treated like a sister. Interestingly enough, they were born the same week on the show in 1981, but A-M ends up being older than her when she returns to town in '89.
