The Best: Robin is alive (even though it dragged out way too long) It got me to watch GH again

The Worst: Everything else on daytime soaps

I dont know what the big deal is about Roger Howarth. He sucked big time on ATWT and isnt any better on GH. He was glorified for his acting as a rapist...thats pretty much all he was damn good at...oh and his hairy chest...but I digress...

The excuse then give is that viewers barely knew Cassandra when she appeared on ABC's AMC and that Sal Stowers was a newbie. And how it was a rip-off of Taken.and that it was gritty and icky showing Cassandra being beaten and raped. How it caused an "unnecessary" rift between Angie and Jesse, how,it wasted Zach and how Zach/Lea were painful to watch

This was a clumsily obvious, poorly written, shabbily acted, grindingly predictable waste of airtime.

Most of this is predictable as well. Safe, flat, and barely worth reading - much like SOD itself these days.

How pathetic that they could barely say anything about OLTL, and what they said about AMC was almost entirely negative.

Kind of says it all about daytime that the best couple was one who did not interact for most of the year.

And SOD wonders why they aren't respected like they use too.

GH for best show? RH for best actor? Chelsea/Adam/Dullan for best triangle? Say what?

GH was alright but it was FAR from being the best. RH has been phoning it in as an actor since his 2nd return to OLTL back in the 90s, and ALL the triangles on soaps sucked major donkey balls this year. None of them wowed me personally.

Major fail, SOD

I've seen RH phoning it in - I don't think he's done that since he came back to ABC. Whether the material is good or terrible, I think he has been on his game. And when he's not he doing his best with what he has, which is sometimes very bad.

SOD did go out of its way to praise RH's performance on OLTL 2.0 which is perhaps the only complimentary thing they said about either PP show, but whatever. Praising Franco is insane, IMO. I would've put him down as Best Actor of last year or 2011, perhaps, certainly not this one.

    • Bringing this over from the soccer/soaps ratings thread yesterday:  Errol said: "CBS put out a notice that it could preempt at a moment's notice as the Pope selection continues, dependent on how long it takes, of course." New pope just chosen, name to be announced soon. Yeah CBS-NewYork channel 2 is airing Pope coverage and not Y&R right now.
    • @brisbydog - I like that you have a signature font, très chic Abe and Paulina's new apartment was the first thing I noticed.  I don't understand why people over a certain age in Salem automatically move into a condo? When it seems just as simple to make the set seem like a detached home.  But, I will give points to attention to detail of choosing colors that compliment the Black actors in the scene. Which then led to the second thing I noticed.  Why would EJ want Kayla's office, when his is 3xs the size?  Also, even if he buys the hospital, won't Kayla get to keep her office? Lastly, can we at least give Cat the agency to decide on her own with whom she wishes to date?  Do men actually need to negotiate on her behalf?  She's stunning.  My advice would be if Chad is friend-zoning her after a year together, move on to his richer brother.
    • OH!!! I love it. I can't believe I missed that. In one of the 2 fan events held the 2 years after the sorry end of our lovely show, both  Anna Stuart & Stephen Schnetzer attended & I got to talk to each of them. Obviously I was in heaven. Although at least I didn't do my shy star struck thing.
    • We probably won't get any of our CBS soaps today cause of the Pope stuff, cause you know they have to air it on regular network despite having 24/7 news channels

    • I still don't know when/how did Iris find out about Evan's connection to Janice?
    • lol Cass and Donna went on a bowling date!
    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to some of the nicest members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either.
