June 11, 201213 yr Member KT is almost always universally panned across the board with AE deemed as the one true Tina and KW a worthy replacement. KT, Tina and love arent 3 words Id put together. I didnt mind her though but anyone loving her is an unpopular opinion I didn't really get into KT's TIna mainly because she just struck me as a flakier version of Mindy Lewis. I actually preferred Karen Witter so I guess that's another UO.
June 11, 201213 yr Member Back when Karen Witter played Tina people loved her. It has only been years later that people started talking about how she was not Tina.
June 12, 201213 yr Member I think Karen's always gotten a fairly positive response online, considering she was only there for three years.
June 12, 201213 yr Member I didn't mind Karen Witter's take on Tina...but I certainly missed Andrea Evans a heckuva lot.
June 12, 201213 yr Member Same. Of course, I'd never suggest turning Rick into another generic soap hunk. I think you could have on a soap opera someone with the right combination of good looks and sense of humor. It's just takes a HW and EP with imagination. Yes, I realize that you were not advocating a generic himbo version of Rick, but I was always afraid that that's what the unimaginative, desperate-to-attract-teen-girls PTB would do. Once upon a time, quirky, interesting actors would be hired to play all sorts of parts, but in the last few decades, more often than not, "romantic leads" have been generic model types.

June 19, 201213 yr Member I just posted this in the non soap UO page, but it works for the soaps too IMO: I really think it would be interesting for TV to have a teenage and/or college age girl/guy who have never had a boyfriend/girlfriend before, just to show that not everyone winds up dating at that age, as there are people who have this experience in real life (I, um, fall into this category myself). I know it might seem boring for some or like it limits the character, but there are people who don't start dating until college, or even their mid 20s, especially if they're shy or reserved (and it would only give them a higher rooting factor if they keep having unrequited crushes, making the first relationship even more special). This can also include even going on a first date, as sometimes it takes that long to get to that stage, too.
June 20, 201213 yr Member So far I've never felt sorry for Steffi on B&B. I find Avrey on Y&R to be useless. Carmin on Y&R isn't hot. Edited June 20, 201213 yr by lovely_m
June 20, 201213 yr Member I find Avery to be useless as well. She's just basically white Leslie and I don't care about her connection to Big Red.
June 25, 201213 yr Member A light-hearted UO: Since Finola Hughes didn't attend the Emmys the year she won hers (in 1991), I'm perfectly fine with the idea of her taking NLG's home for herself (since NLG was able to personally take her first one home in 1989), not only because it could be put in place of the one she never got to take home 21 years ago, but because she's the one who presented it. ...I'm totally kidding. Sort of.
June 26, 201213 yr Member What did Finola win for? What storyline gave her the material to get an Emmy?
