HOLIDAY MIRACLE: Prospect Park Back On Track To Revive AMC and OLTL

Well, no, probably not but they would technically be recurring. If they are even asked.

Meanwhile, Sylvester should know better than to describe a Black girl in his story as "sassy."

Her last two years at the show were pretty much a mess (as well as other eras she's given), but I do think she helps give the show at its best, even with all her darkness, some sense of heart and community which I find lacking in RC's writing. For all her love of rape, she also usually plays it as high tragedy, unlike RC's comic highjinks, which sits with me better. And I think her pacing is much more consistant than Ron--Ron at his best has REALLY great ending moments to stories--when everything comes together you usually have a week of strong episodes there--but he isn't too far removed from JER in how he paces his stories (albeit much quicker)--he sets something up, then has a middle where they basically rinse and repeat the same scene over and over until the big reveal--in her best years (usually when guided by a strong EP or consultant), McTavish really did a good job at playing all the beats of a story.

HA yeah comparing all those stories together had me a bit "huh"?

But I admit, I do like if this leaked info says the stories will have a focus on topicality and not the more recent trend of soaps sorta being campy homages to what people think soap operas are about.

[Khan]

I do, too. If PP were to bring back ALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE just to tell the same kind of far-fetched stories that got them cancelled in the first place, then what would have been the point?

Sounds like the next epi of the Steve Wilkos Show.

[Khan]

No, Natalie will return, so it's all good.

I do love the one response that said it's no different than Kevin supporting Chloe on Y&R when Delia is an Abbott. On what version of Y&R is Chloe pimping herself out for money?

[Scotty]

Awww....thanks.

I like the OLTL castlist, except for the overwhelming whiteness (yes, I know they've only listed people who were previously on the show and are returning). I have to be honest if it's just an online version of the show, with POC playing second fiddle to the beige brigade I'm not going to watch.

[Khan]

The version of Y&R that is way better than the one that actually makes it to air.

POC?

[Dee41]

POC= People Of Color

I think people are overreacting a bit to the Destiny story. Granted, these aren't characters I know or care about and I admit it does have a bit of a Jerry Springer vibe to it but in the end it will come down to the acting and the writing. Maybe there's some way to turn it into compelling drama. People are getting worked up, positively and negatively, over what is basically a couple of paragraphs of trashy fanfic.

Or it can turn into a massive wave of misogyny and racism which pretty much brings us back to where we are now.

So I'm still sick, but thankfully I run a website so I can still get work done.
