I'm sure this has been discussed before, I may even have started a thread on it, but we've talked about everything a few dozen times anyway, so maybe this will get some interest.

Who are the soap characters you got irrationally angry about when you saw people criticize them - either other characters, or fans?

Yes, it's just fiction, it's not anything serious, but you still got pissed off.

My main ones were:

Delia - Ryan's Hope. This got especially bad when Randall Edwards was in the role, as the writing angered me so much.

Siobhan - Ryan's Hope. Only with Sarah Felder.

Carly - GH. Only with Sarah Brown.

I hate it when people call ERICA on AMC evil. I never thought of her as evil just a complicated person. I hate it especially when long term fans that should know good and well what her childhood was like call her evil and talk about her as if she were cardboard.

Yep. Same here. I can and do defend just about everything she did. In the hands of another actress, she could have been evil, but Susan gave her a vulnerability and a sense of humor that made you feel for her even when you wanted to smack her. She's not a villain at all, IMO.

I'd say...

OLTL: Stacy Morasco/Kim Andrews/Jared/Oliver Fish...because these characters were screwed over due to favouritism toward GiGi/John.

GH: Sam McCall, sometimes Jax, sometimes Lulu.

DAYS: Kristen.

Yes. Sleeping with Bill. Just pure gutter butt. When she did it to Hope & Bridget and still didn't learn anything and has done it yet again, now to her sister . . . Done.

Brooke doing it to anyone. Fine. Family, not cute. And this is her 3rd offense. Once, twice, maybe. Habitually, nope. Team Katie. Katie should've rammed her foot in the crack of Brooke's ass.

PSSNS-Theresa (though since then I realized just how psycho she really was.......stilll think Gwen could be worse sometimes)

DOOL-Sami (again, looking at older clips she was pretty evil, but I feel bad when Kate does something to her and then gets away with it)

B&B-Hope,Brooke

Y&R-Jack, (when people say how great Victor is and how bad Jack is)

YES and YES (at least while I still watched B&B.) Although I wouldn't call it irrational anger. I would defend them with my last breath against holier-than-thou haters. And I would wear my fingers down to nubs defending them against horrid plotwhorish writers who changed history to suit their pet of the moment/contrived twist for shock value/lack of writing talent.

Over-involved...yeah. Irrational...NO. LOL.

OLTL: Viki, Nora, Marty, Natalie, and often Blair. Back in the day a little Blair sans Todd used to go a long way for me. Then came the Jack baby switch and Live Week. That character has taken so much [!@#$%^&*] from the Todds and the writers, especially since 2001 or so, that I can give a pass for almost anything. Also: Kevin, R.J.

GH: Robin, Anna, Laura. See above.

    • All I can think of is if a lot of big names were leaving around that time she wanted him back as a stopgap, although I have never seen any real evidence that he was popular with GH viewers.
    • I loved watching Shanice hand Leslie her ass and finally shutting her up. It was so good. I also love Martin & Smitty's family.  Anita has to have some sort of plan giving Leslie the tickets to mail for Winterfest. She has to be setting her up for a fall. It's pretty obvious to me Vernon is not cheating with Sharon. I think Sharon is helping him with his terrible singing voice for Winterfest. I still believe Bill & Dani are endgame but I love Dani & Andre too. I am definitely enjoying this story. And making Hayley a black widow is a nice twist.
    • Sorry for the spam. Wasn't sure where to put this, it's from Tony Geary's husband's IG. Tony watching Genie and Maurice on Mo's show.
    • This show is really trundling along BTW. When is someone going to show up to slit Beastmaster's throat or crack the whip on metrosexual Sidwell? (BTW, openly presenting this cheery bon vivant as casually bisexual would at least be something vaguely diverting.) At least kill Brennan by year's end. I'm bored.
    • She told Vanessa to "DOUBLE her offer" on the Jarvis house.  The Jarvis family accepted the doubled price.  Assuming the house has an appraised value of $2,000,000, she's theoretically paid the Jarvis family $4,000,000 for the house.  The bank would loan Leslie 80% of the appraised value ($1,600,000), and Leslie had to pay the balance with cash at closing --- $2,200,000.  She only had ONE million.  Where the hell did she get the rest?!  And now she's got contractors working on the house all day & half the night.  Who's paying THEM?  I keep thinking all this will crash around her.  Either that or the writers have absolutely no idea the limits of a million dollars.  Sounds like a "lot of money", but it obviously ain't when we look at Leslie's spending since she got that million dollar check in August.

    • Vernon is an idiot. Why would he have Sharon in the same hotel that Leslie is staying at?
    • Yes, that out of the blue return was odd. Maybe GG found a forgotten clause in the contract he signed when he was wooed to ABC and they were forced to take him back! Like George Reinholt he talked about the contract that promised him primetime roles. But it was loaded in the networks favor. I think it was Gloria Loring that re-signed at Days on the promise of primetime opportunities, but that was all it was- she was put up for guest spots and TV movies but not necessarily guaranteed that she get the role.
    • I still am baffled by why Monty brought back stunt hire Gerald Gordon in the early '80s out of nowhere for like a year. I haven't found anyone who can come up with a thing he did in that second stint of note.
    • It's interesting to watch this having watched The Doctors. I'm not sure I'm seeing that much of a difference in the characters Gerald Gordon and Anna Stuart played on The Doctors and what they're playing here.
