I’m curious about this one in particular. What was their rationale?

Early 2020 was rough for Victoria; she ended her mercurial relationship with Billy, and just after Victor put her in charge of Newman, she got stabbed, leading to a bout of PTSD. Victoria returned to work, only to be ousted by her father as CEO when he succumbed to Adam's blackmail. But Vicky, newly determined to say a permanent goodbye to her victimhood status had other plans. She uncovered the truth behind her brother's extortion and threatened to go public with it unless she was reinstated, Victor's dismay be damned. The power hungry, take no prisoners version of Victoria that has emerged has led to interpersonal conflict aplenty, and has been somewhat polarizing to fans but we prefer the strong hell raiser to the alternative. Emboldened, confident and fierce, she has unapologetically emerged from the corporate shadows and taken her rightful place as her father's heir apparent.

Thanks, @AbcNbc247. I guess they didn’t have many options, although maybe Nicole from DAYS got a nice jolt with the Sami rivalry.

I certainly agree with these. Stevano was ridiculous. Hope's exit was beyond disappointing. Allie and the actress who plays her is a great addition. 

This is pretty spot on. GH was easily the best show. The only thing I wish is that they had listed Y&R as worst show.  

I admit...yeah, that is pretty spot on this year.

 

And I too would like to see a WORST SOAP category.

Certainly neck and neck with B&B (the show as it stands is the worst soap I’ve watched all year, which is saying a lot), but Y&R was bad longer. 

Worst best of categories: SOD

They didn't do a Most Disappointing Show category this year. I wonder why.

Next week!!

 

In the Honorable Mentions section, there was a write up about how the LGBT characters were pretty much written out on every soap this year.

What was the Living Doll story on B&B? Also how did Adrienne die on Days?

Thomas became obsessed with a mannequin that looked like Hope. He started talking to it, and living with it. And it started talking to him too. Yeah, I know it sounds stupid lol

 

Adrienne was killed as a result of a car accident. At first, Will thought he had run her off the road, he confessed and was sent to prison. Eventually, people began to think it was Maggie. She had gotten drunk that night and believed she was driving and had run Adrienne off the road. But it actually turned that Orpheus and Evan were the ones who ran Adrienne off the road and framed Maggie for it.

Thomas was obsessed with a mannequin doll and believed it was real and probably made out with it.

 

Adrienne was killed the n a car accident.

There was nothing compelling about who killed Adrienne.

You're right.

 

The storyline did seem a little badly written, and poor Will was so noble it was almost sickening lol

 

Plus, I'm sure we all know that eventually it's going to come out that during the time jump Dr. Rolf switched Bonnie and Adrienne's memories and it was really Bonnie that died.
