As a whole, the interview was pretty darn insightful. Jean went through her entire career in soaps, including her mentorship under Claire Labine and Agnes Nixon. one of sosp digest's best pieces in a while. Curiously, however, Jean wasnt asked very much about her yr time, which was some of her best work, particularly the comebacks of adam and phyllis. All in all though. it reads like Jean considers GH to be the pinnacle of ber career--the actors have ben VERY supportive of her personally. she getsthem on a fundamental level

Dear no one is asking for special treatment, but as long time poster's there should be consideration, we shouldn't have to put up with a troll. Yes some respond to him, but overall this shouldn't be something anyone on this board should have to tolerate. It's gone on way too long.

 

Anywho, I want to know why the hack "writers" write crap like this then say "oh we went too far with them" WELL DUH idiot's, ya think? Why not take that into consideration when writing this stuff?

I don't know J-bro. I do know that the complaints about him annoy me MUCH more than he does.

 

Do I agree with his posts? Almost never. However, that doesn't mean he's a troll. He doesn't attack other posters even when he's attacked, and he doesn't make fun of others' opinions. I know what trolling looks like, and that ain't it.

 

You shouldn't have to tolerate his posts? No one is forcing you to tolerate anything. Just scroll on, for God's sake.

Another thread about Jonny where people can't stop talking about how much they hate talking about his posts. There are worse things than being repeating yourself all and having a (very!) different opininion than the majority of posters on the SON soap board.

 

Let's say Jonny is banned. What is next? Will the people who love picking fights and are very rude to the others be the next to go? And then? The Marcy Walker-rape guy?

This is the most I've talked about a blocked troll in years, as opposed to having to live with him derailing every single thread, or watching people actively engage him and waste pages upon pages. All of which, yes, is one of several clear definitions of trolling.


And yes, I am all in favor of the board doing something, anything to even slightly discipline some of its obvious trolls and mental patients. And yes, that includes the rape guy. I am wholeheartedly in favor of disciplining the rape guy. If you aren't and you like posting in a madhouse which is at least 50% idiots and creeps, more power to you. I find it sad that we apparently have less moderation than anonymous boards.

 

Disciplining me is not a threat. I don't give a shît. Go for it. Do it. But if you do me you can do the trolls and rape creeps first.

What he does is exactly what a troll does.

 

You talking about this is also the same as people bitching about him. So save the lecture.

 

 

This isn't an "we disagree with him so we want him gone mob mentality". Plenty of us disagree on a regular basis and we co-exist just fine.

Yeah, I'm not watching regularly. Ned and Olivia are just light fun, I could use some of that about now. Laura is still with Spence.  Well, I don't mind Amy/Maxie's story, but I can't stand the actor who plays Nathan. Plus I think they should have defied some stereotypes and let there be a little attraction between Amy/Nathan, if not an actual affair.

Again Errol.and Toups asked not to bring this up. I feel.Vee should be suspended for contuinly intigating drama and also for not respecting Mods here.  U are comparing ny love for Jean/Shelly the same as someone who said he had AIDS. Create your own board and make your own rules. Maybe its time for u to part ways from this board. I see Vee rude to many other posters here.

    • Yes we have seen Dani/Andre, Doug/Vanessa, Ashley/Derek and Naomi/Jacob in bed but no Martin/Smitty. And Chelsea's 3 way involvement has consisted of about 3 scenes at the Hideout before it was over.
    • Thanks Bold!  You finally have your first year of YR ratings coming, which completes the ratings for the entire run of YR! I look forward to the day that happens with Days in the 1965-1966 batch, but that will probably be a few years away. A lot of work, but a lot of fun chronicling the history of daytime TV ratings, preemptions and specials!!

    • Well, no new episode tomorrow, but you should do a catch up. It's worth it!
    • *Gavrilo Princip has entered the chat* I haven't watched BTG in approximately two months because of the busy season at work, but now it's summer, and I'll have time to get back into it. Do y'all think that I should do the 21st century binge-watching thing and attempt to catch up on everything I missed or should I do the traditional soap thing and just start watching again tomorrow and figure everything out from there?
    • A few days late but this made me holler so bad and immediately took.me back 29 years when I first saw this. I still remember thinking Rick and Phillip were going hold each other and dance together LOL. Rick being there at least makes some sense as he was A-M’s second cousin and the show still at least recognized he was half Bauer, at least until Hearst left.  The whole Universal Studios wedding was over the top. I think someone wanted A-M and Lucy to be the next GL super couple but once Hearst left the A-M recast flopped and both were gone by early ‘97 with Lucy never appearing ever again.    Love the rest of your post, summer 1996 was the first time GL left me feeing…greatly underwhelmed until it inspired righteous indignation on my behalf once we get to the Gilly twist.
    • You're right. I think she was seen as too subtle or reserved.  As @soapfan770I liked Sheila on LA Law but she wasn't needed here, especially as Charley as a character only made sense with a more reserved and less conventionally attractive actress.
    • That's certainly one way to put it!  What blather. Kind of tells you they knew it was going to fail. I guess they were just throwing anything at the schedule and hoping they would be pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the article.
    • I would guess it's down to Kate Oates. Bowden is very much her type of leading man. She repeated all the stories she did on Emmerdale with his Ben.  I also think EE has become conservative enough that only a white, straight-acting gay man is going to get story.
    • Desert Sun, 13 April 1985 ABC’s 'Dark Mansions’ Loretta Young quits movie LOS ANGELES (AP) - Loretta Young, citing “creative differences,” has withdrawn from her role as the family matriarch in “Dark Mansions,” an ABC movie and projected series, a spokesman for the actress said. The Academy Award-winning actress had been due to come out of retirement to begin work on the two-hour movie on April 22. The movie goes into production on Monday. “Loretta Young will not be rendering services because of creative differences over the story,” her agent, Norman Brokaw of the William Morris Agency said in a statement. “The parting between Miss Young and Aaron Spelling was amiable despite the story differences,” the statement said. Miss Young had been scheduled to play the role of Margaret Drake, the matriarch of a Seattle shipping family in “Dark Mansions,” a contemporary Gothic drama. There was no immediate word from either Aaron Spelling Productions or ABC who would replace Miss Young in the role. “It’s true that we had creative differences over the way her character was developing,” Spelling said in a statement released by a spokesman, David Horowitz. “She's a great star and a great friend and I hope she always remains both.” Miss Young won an Academy Award as best actress in 1948 for “The Farmer’s Daughter.” She was the star of 94 motion pictures and was the creator, producer and star of “The Loretta Young Show” during television’s so-called Golden Age Miss Young had been scheduled to work eight days out of the four week shooting schedule. The movie, a pilot for an ABC prime-time soap opera, also stars Michael York, who would make his series debut, Linda Purl, Paul Shenar, Melissa Sue Anderson, Raymond St. Jacques and Dan O’Herlihy. Miss Young s last film was “It Happens Every Thursday” in 1953. She then took the unprecedented step of retiring from films to produce and star in "The Loretta Young Show" on television. She won three Emmy awards as best dramatic actress in 1954, 1956 and 1958. She was also nominated five other times. The anthology show ran on NBC from 1953 to 1961. In the 1962-63 season she starred on NBC in a dramatic show called “The New Loretta Young Show.” As we know Joan Fontaine took on the role
