Really? The Cassandra sex trafficking story on AMC was the worst? Compared to what, Franco?

Are they [!@#$%^&*] serious? That was a good story!

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

Best Secret: Maxie carrying her own child, GH

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.

How could they tie that Adam/Chelsea/Dylan nonsense for BestANYTHING???? That is ridiculous.

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.
