Members DRW50 Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 Some scenes on soaps are deliberately strange, like "gothic" stories, or nightmares, or fantasies. Other moments aren't supposed to be that at all and somehow stumble onto absurdity. Are there any moments you remember watching and thinking, "What was that?" The one I most remember is during the horrible, make-it-up-as-we-go-along Diego murder "mystery" on ATWT. Emily Stewart, one of the suspects, randomly stole Diego's corpse and went on a joyride! Yes, a joyride. I believe we even saw her driving the car, with Diego's corpse in the backseat, and she was doing that hysterical laugh/shriek Kelly Menighan Hensley was so fond of. It was totally out of place on ATWT and just went along with how ludicrous the whole story was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aMLCproduction Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 Good one for Days. I think Passions had a slew of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 LMAO! I came into the thread to post something about the Garden of Eden! As much as I liked Carrie and Mike together on Days, their flying space bed of love had me going "WTF?!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MichaelGL Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 LOL Agreed. To be honest, it seemed like a soap opera spoof of sorts, a sketch you would see on SNL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted August 16, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 I remember seeing that around the time it first aired but I didn't realize just how ridiculous it was, especially considering the circumstances. And poor Van Hansis looks like he's going to have a seizure. Another is this hamfest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mV5gFIygAYE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 Definitely the flying bed on Days of Our Lives. They're having a real intimate moment, a moment they're sharing for the first time, and they completely ruined it. I mean really, what the HECK were they thinking when they decided to put a green screen behind the bed and have them fly into space and land in a meadow?

Members Shawn Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 And let us never forget Marlena's coffin descent into Hell on Days. My GOD Salem has a monopoly in this category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members quartermainefan Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 there was a clip I saw once, I wish I could remember who it was, where this young couple had sex on a bed and then suddenly the bed went traveling through the universe. I want to say this was DOOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Vixen Posted August 16, 2011 Members Share Posted August 16, 2011 Really Carl? I thought Jennifer Bransford was fantastic in that scene. I loved Georgie. Sandra Grant was so horrible as Rachel though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
