LMAO at how they give everyone byt Lucci the most unflattering photos on that cover. MTS especially looks bad. I will agre with EJ and Taylor from Days as the worst couple. My goodness they were god awful. Did anyone like them?

I read on another site OLTL was labeled Best Soap.

Id have given that to AMC. I thought overall that show had a more solid year than OLTL

Poor Erika Slezak. Most likely her last SOD cover ever (unless she goes to another soap - but who knows how long SOD will even be around) and that's the picture that they choose. What a slap to her.

Lol at OLTL getting best social s/l for that laughable, half-assed bullying storyline. Whatever!

what other ones would apply? It might have won by default. I did think it was more interesting than B&B's awful lung cancer plot with Nick and Stephanie

They may have a OLTL retrospective issue during the last week on the air for SOD. I hope so for Erika's sake.

Just don't give the award out at all. The bullying story basically gave the message that if you stand up to bullies, you will pay a horrible price (your mother will be killed) and the bully will be lavishly rewarded for it (no charges against him, and he got Todd's fortune for a while). Not to mention that Shane was an afterthought for almost all the story.

Oh thank you AlexElizabeth!

I have it.

Best story: Tale of two Todds/OLTL

Worst story: Chloe's a prostitute/DAYS

The Todd plot was awful, yet strangely intruging. Ut definetly kept me glued to my screen but the writing was disastrous towards the end with many things not making much sense. For me,Id say the Steffy/Bill/Katie triangle was the best.

Not the worst for me. GH drove me to quit, so Id have picked something from there. Or Folder F---k from OLTL

Most shocking plot twist: Gigi/Stacy (OLTL)
Really? Who didnt see that coming a mile away

Most preposterous plot: Jennifer's heart transplant/DAYS

Biggest tearjerker: Ellie Hubbard's death/AMC

Most entertaining story: Oak Haven antics/AMC

Agreed on all three!

Best couple: Billy/Victor (Y&R)

Worst couple: EJ/Taylor (DAYS)

Most tortured couple: Jason/Sam (GH)

Most boring couple: Lucky/Siobhan (GH)

Billy/Victoria are awful! The mags need to stop pimping them. The best for me was Cord/Tina but I wouldnt except them to be voted since they are guests. Bill/Steffy once again for me. Agree the following 3.

Best triangle: Viki/Charlie/Echo (OLTL)

Worst triangle: Hope/Liam/Steffy (B&cool.png

Best secret: Luke killed Jake (GH)

Worst secret: Who killed Eddie Ford (OLTL)

Best returns: AMC/OLTL vets

Worst return: Brenda/GH

No best triangle was Steffy/Bill/Katie. They got it wrong as Brenda returned LAST year. She made her exit this year.

Best exit: Dorian/OLTL

Worst exit: Marty/OLTL

Dorian's exit story was awful. Not a good last hurrah for her at all. Marty's was at least entertaining but I can see why it was looked down upon.

Best villain: David Hayward/AMC

Worst villain: Ricky Torres/AMC

Best recast: Debbi Morgan as Harmony on Y&R

Worst recast: Maura West as Diane on Y&R

Best wedding: Sonny and Brenda/GH

Worst wedding: Jack and Erica/AMC

Jack and Erica didnt even have a wedding! My best would be the OLTL twins. They didnt go through with it but that was good drama. David got too cartoonish for me too look at him as a valid villian but IA on Ricky.

Best sibling rivalry: Ridge & Thorne/B&B

Best cast cutting: DAYS

Worst cast cutting: GH

Ridge and Thorne? That lasted all of 5 minutes. Im surprised Jess/Natalie didnt get this. Days made awful decisions with some of its cast cuts IMO.

Worst trend: Dual roles - AMC/OLTL/DAYS

Worst social issue: Lisa attacks/GH

How the heck did doopleganger happy Y&R not get up there for worst trends? And how was Lisa a social issue?

Most disappointing show: Y&R

Most improved show: AMC

Best show: OLTL

The first 2 are spot on. The last is debatable as I would say it was AMC

Best couple: Billy/Victor (Y&R)

HAHAHAHAHAHA :D (Seriously they meant Victoria right?)

Worst triangle: Hope/Liam/Steffy (B&

Very well deserved....Not that i need a clear explanation but out of curiosity, why did SOD name them worse triangle???

Best secret: Luke killed Jake (GH)

Was that really a secret?

Best recast: Debbi Morgan as Harmony on Y&R

uhhh.... Shes okay but its no where near being a good recast

Worst recast: Maura West as Diane on Y&R

Not really.... There should be a category called "writers worse written recast character"

Best sibling rivalry: Ridge & Thorne/B&B

YES

Worst sibling rivalry: Neil & Malcolm/Y&R

Thought Phyllis and Avery would get this.... but yeah they shouldn't even have won this one

Biggest waste of female talent: Melody Thomas Scott/Y&R

HELL YEAH!!!!

Most disappointing show: Y&R

You mean most ruined show.....

HAHAHAHAHAHA biggrin.png (Seriously they meant Victoria right?)

Billy's the "Young" and Victor's the "Restless"

:lol:

I think they mean Lisa and the HIV syringe.

Dorian's exit story was awful. Not a good last hurrah for her at all. Marty's was at least entertaining but I can see why it was looked down upon.

I thought her last few episodes were a decent farewell - not the ideal, but fitting. The last montage was very touching, as were her scenes with Viki. I guess for this year that may be the closest to best exit, although I thought Chloe had a nice exit from DAYS.

Well Y&Rs were mostly from last year (even if Patty/Myrna-Emily is still ongoing) but you make a good point.

Billy's the "Young" and Victor's the "Restless"

HAHAHAHAHA, just leave it at that.
