Members DeeeDee Posted July 16, 2018 Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 The state of this show is embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SteelCity Posted July 16, 2018 Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 Ummm... What the hell is happening right now?! What in the James Reilly is happening to my soaps?! I'm appalled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fevuh Posted July 16, 2018 Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 Why does every writer...no matter who it is....do this to Sharon Case? Today I saw the last 15 minutes and all I could say was "God Sharon...SHUT UP." Given what happened with JT and 'the secret', and she says she doesn't know Nick anymore? LOLLLLLL. SHUT UP and SIT DOWN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted July 16, 2018 Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 The show is dreadful. Today's show was really cringeworthy to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted July 16, 2018 Author Members Share Posted July 16, 2018 I admit that I did drop after they left, but I wasn't interested at all until they came back in the first place. But still I enjoy your opinion because you have more experience with how Mal works...whether he is holding to what he did before (which did or did not work) or not.

Members Fevuh Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 I’ll say something awful but true. ABC And NBC destroyed daytime drama here in the US. Weather machines on General Hospital and Marlena is a Demon Panther and Vicki on One Life to Live goes to Heaven - in a space ship. Yep. Happened. Faisons face melted on ABC. So you had our attention for 5 years here and there. But you killed daytime. They made people laugh at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Antoyne Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 I keep hoping there will be a post about a good episode. Do we know Mishaels last airdate?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GMac Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 I haven't heard @Antoyne So two "big" confrontations today: Phyllis -> Billy/Summer and Nikki/Victoria -> Nick ...and I had no fvcks to give. They were really badly done. Badly written, directed and acted all the way around. What the hell has happened to this show? The wheels are coming off. FAST. Die, Tessa. At least Cane is nowhere in sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SteelCity Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 I venture to say that PASSIONS killed daytime soaps. It really put to end any respect held for the genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mango Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 It's so painful I want to cry. The show is on life support. When do you throw your hands up and call it a day? At this point, I don't even know what could be done to right the ship. But, with the upcoming departures, perhaps the ship has sailed into the sunset for good. The damage is so severe that it would be difficult for a new writing regime to fix it. It's not like you can just call this a mulligan (Nick's gaslighting, Jack not being an Abbott etc.) and move on. Unless someone made this all a dream! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 This show was mortally wounded years ago, but I did enjoy the first quarter of this year. Maybe it was just a delayed honeymoon period because even MAB’s first few months felt like a big improvement from the previous regime, and we know how repulsive her stories were. But I feel like once JT was killed the show became borderline unwatchable. And they are also using Marla Adams a lot less. These charismatic actors made the show somehow seem better. I don’t know: all of the veteran actors feel flat. Even Jess, who can be OTT in a great soapy way, felt shrill and looked uncomfortable in the scenes I watched from Monday.

Members koos Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 My sister watched Y&R in the '80s, and didn't miss an episode from the mid/late '90s until this year. She can't bring herself to watch it now. It reminds me of GL just before the production switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted July 17, 2018 Members Share Posted July 17, 2018 Well, Y&R right now isn't GL-does-a-rave bad...but it's kissing that line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
