Damn, Carly is one dumb bitch! She was so thirsty to hop on the cock of the man who got her son raped. Doesn't get much sexier than that. She looks like a fool.

KA was freaking horrible today (and every other day).

I always hate when they show CPR on soaps. It looks so fake every time. Though who could even pay attention to Carly giving CPR today with Keku's shrieking in the background? Good lord! Michaeeeel!!!! Michael I love youuuuuuuu! Damn, I wish a shark would've eaten her!

Saving Kaka and Michael is just another reason to hate Franco.

Sonny/Olivia - SNORE.

Julian wants Alexis... what? He does? Did I miss something?

I agree 100%! I'm also going to have to agree with Carl. While Julian is playing Alexis for a sucker, he will be stalking Carly. He was pure scum today, and not mob scum. Just scum! But what really got me was how they went from the Julian reveal to the conversation about Carly and Julian wanting Alexis? There are like several scenes or eppies missing!

Because of his accessibility. Fans love the fact that they can interact with Ron via Facebook, Twitter and the like.

There's another reason which has to do with the general culture -- or its intelligence, or lack thereof -- and I don't want to go there. Suffice it to say, though, soap fans -- nay, anyone who watches a TV series or movie, or even reads a book -- are less discerning than they used to be.

Also, KA gets bashed for the same reason teenaged girls in this country are being bullied online (often to the point of taking their own lives). It's the Internet, and that has made it safe, easy and even hip for people to talk smack about others underneath a cloak of near-anonymity.

And because the female dog can't act.

Bad acting isn't a very good reason to send people nasty messages on twitter, especially ones that focus on their looks. Honestly, it's pretty crazy and there's no accounting for crazy, so I shouldn't have bothered to figure out the reason for it.

ETA: I don't consider bashing people on a message board to be anywhere near the same thing as sending them hateful messages. If an actor comes here looking I really don't have a lot of sympathy for people who chose to step into the lion's den.

She's got lady parts. That's often all it takes.

Of course men get a lot of hate too, but she's always gotten the most of anyone from OLTL or in her group on GH. She's a mediocre actress (at best) and she has somewhat strange features, but if she were a guy I don't think she'd get as much hate. Even with all the stuff about her relationship with Chad.

I don't condone sending people nasty messages on twitter. In fact a few times when I've seen it under the GH hashtags I've tweeted people to stop tagging the actors names in their hateful tweets as well. Some of those tweets can be pretty vile. I always bring up the fact that the women are judged more harshly then the men by both male and female viewers.

KA is not the only one who gets hate tweets it happens to all the GH ladies. Just pulling examples but Kelly Thiebaud's gotten her share, Teresa Castillo's had gotten hate tweets, when Lindsey Morgan was on this show I remember even seeing a few racist tweets sent to her , etc.

    • I guess I should appreciate Clifton's devotion to his craft, but this comes off as so pretentious. Nothing about Liam's story (or B&B, for that matter) is high art.
    • To me the product placement normalizes these folks. Your bound to see household products around no matter how immaculate someone's house may be.  I was just thinking about her as Yvonne on AMC. Yeah, would love to see her. 
    • There's also the soap opera conundrum: once characters get everything they want, they tend to stagnate. Nola got everything she wanted. One of the things that was really interesting about her was that tremendous need for things out of her grasp. Once that was resolved, there wasn't much left for her to play. Maybe Long could have found something to replace that, but since she wasn't created by Long, she probably preferred to focus on the needy character she created: Reva. They were still significant stockholders. They could have punched back. Vanessa forced to team with the brother she resents. I can see it working.
    • She could have easily tied them into the Cottage Mystery...(they could have easily explained going on adventures with Bea, babysitting) The house that Tony and Annabelle lived in could have been the coachhouse of the property that Qualo and Henry live in, or at the very least Nola would have been totally in on ghosts and secrets of her brother's house. But they kind of just sat around for months.  The clip of Van and Billy's impromptu wedding shows how sidelined Nola and Quint became...Nola isn't even around butting in on them getting married, its all Reva (though it is a more interesting Reva where Mindy and her or going at it and insulting each other..THAT Reva was fun.)  I loved it when those two would go at it. Somehow they could have resurrected that antogonistic relationship and not have Billy worshing at the throne of Reva.  When they brought JC back on recurring they should have had him at least warn Annie about Jeva pulling her down..."Darlin' I love my brother, but when he has ole Reva in his sites he will drop any woman to try to win her back...and then he will get bored with her...she's like booze is to me and you...he hates it but he needs it..get out while you can!"
    • It's been brought up that Empty Nest was a time slot hit. Here's Empty Nest schedule and seasonal rating in comparison to The Golden Girls. 1988/89: The Golden Girls Saturday 9 pm, 6th. Empty Nest Saturday 9:30 pm, 9th. 1989/90: The Golden Girls Saturday 9 pm, 6th. Empty Nest Saturday 9:30 pm, 9th. 1990/91: The Golden Girls Saturday 9 pm, 10th. Empty Nest Saturday 9:30 pm, 7th. 1991/92: The Golden Girls Saturday 8 pm, 30th (final season). Empty Nest Saturday 9 pm, 22nd.  1992/93: Saturday 9 pm, below the Top 30. 1993/94: Saturday 9 pm, below the Top 30. 1994/95: Saturday 8:30 pm then 8 pm, below the Top 30, and cancelled. Empty Nest 7 season run equaled the parent show The Golden Girls.
    • In an interesting turn of irony, when Somerset came onto the airwaves in 1970... it ran against Dark Shadows and beat it in the ratings fairly quickly.  Then when Edge of Night moves to ABC in December 1975 and put against Somerset, the slow ratings rise that Somerset was allegedly having in late 1975 is derailed. From reading the write ups of the final year, the show dropped the May/December romance.. which viewers enjoyed and was getting the show some good press... the original cast member was sidelined due to medical issues, and the show featured pure crime stories without any balance. I think the crime focus was an attempt to compete with EON.  However, people that were into crime stories/mysteries weren't going to tune into Somerset for their fix.. not when Edge of Night was known for that.. and that show was running on a high quality wise when the network switch occurred.

    • Erwin Nicholson's last episode as SFT ep was 11/21. Whitesell started 11/22/85. Erwin was on board from March 8, 1985 so less than 9 months. Whitesell lasts six months (approximately) before P&G moved him to AW for two years where he primarily worked with DePriest. Whitesell was replaced on Search by no daytime experience David Lawrence who closed out the show's last six months.
    • CBS is commemorating Don Diamont's 40th anniversary of his start on CBS soaps.  (They're not counting his 1984 on DAYS). Y&R posted on IG, to appear on B&B and cbstv IG accounts as well.

Y&R posted same photos on facebook  (fb post link) Y&R did a youtube with individual messages from their cast: Heartfelt and fun from Peter Bergman, Beth Maitland, Eileen Davidson, Tracey Bregman, Joshua Morrow, and Eric Braeden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdFxgA7gPcY Stephanie Sloane interviewed Diamont for tvinsider/tvguide.
