Members juppiter Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 Aw, I loved Mediadomain and always will. Yes it is the ghetto of soap fandom but frankly we need a ghetto. A lot of the worst things attributed to Mediadomain are just urban legends, or are true but don't take into consideration the positives that came out of MediaDomain-- many great spoofs.

Members ~bl~ Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 GL had the most couple names because that show's fandom adopted them before any of the others did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 Yeah, that [!@#$%^&*] annoyed me, too. For me, it was one of many, many situations where I felt as if everyone involved was bound to lose, regardless of which pairing was supposed to be endgame.

Members AdelaideCate007 Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 The greatest couple of all time. There's some old newsgroup thing from the Port Charles days still online, and there were some people going nuts over Kevin & Lucy vs Lucy & Scott.

Members VirginiaHamilton Posted January 10, 2013 Author Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 Granted, I never saw Brady/Chloe, but I did like what I did see of Philip/Chloe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 IIRC, before "Mattessa," the only couple even to have a portmanteau was DAYS' Bo and Hope (or "Bope"). Any and every couple from before the Internet that has one today gained theirs retroactively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 What about Leo/Greenlee vs. JEPJake/Greenlee from AMC? I remember both couples having a lot of fans way back when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 I refuse to believe any two people fought over the likes of Greenlee [!@#$%^&*] Smythe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted January 10, 2013 Author Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 For a minute there, I thought you were going to say GreenLeo vs. Leo/Laura... I know the GreenLeo stans roasted poor Laura (and Becca Tyree, for that matter) over the coals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 No one ever should kick a girl while she's down...but when it came to Laura Kirk English...well, can't say that I blame 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 I don't think there were any RKK Bo/Hope fans, or any Bo/Billie fans beyond RKK/Rinna Bo/Billie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 Believe it or not, I read in the UO thread at TWOP once that there WERE a few Leo/Laura fans back then. Weird stuff happens sometimes. Hell, there were even a few Sonny/Lily fans (definitely not Miguel/Brenda, though). In any case, while I didn't watch AMC, one of the first things I remember in my early days of OLTL is seeing Leo/Laura's wedding rained out right before the latter show came on. I was 12, so it definitely left an impression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 10, 2013 Members Share Posted January 10, 2013 I remember the first I saw was "Jeva." I thought it was stupid, and still do. I know Quint and Nola fans called them "Quola," but I'm not sure if that was just later on. And of course "Folly" and "Rolly." I never knew who decided Roger and Holly should have a dog name.
