Only reason I didn’t say B&B is because as long as Brad Bell is HW, there is only so much that show will do. He’s beyond burnt out and we know his routine by now. B&B is the easiest soap to fix and write, but with nobody given the chance it is what it is basically.

I paused at that too.  They weren't even together a lot of the year and now are bickering, but they aren't the worst choice.  If I had to pick at veteran Days couple I would have picked Jarlena, but at least it wasn't Ciara/Ben lol.

 

Can someone tell me who Delores on GH is?  I can't remember her at all and I watch GH, sorta, some of the time lol.  The only Delores I remember is Dante's young, attractive partner at the PCPD about 10 years ago.

I don't love Adrienne, but I do love WK/Justin.

 

I really like Jarlena, but I don't think they were amazing this year or anything.  I just thought they were better than Steve/Kayla.  I thought Jack/Jen (when shown) were too.

 

I have never seen all of Marlena/Don and what I did was years after the fact.  Don always seemed like a sexist jerk and was pretty awful to Marlena during DJ's death. I did like them later on as friends.   I enjoyed WN's Roman/Marlena a lot in the early days too.

Don't know about Marlena's best pairing, but I do know I liked (Ro)John better with every other female he was ever romantically involved with more than I like him with Doc. But, at this point, I know they are forever chained together, so...whatever there.

 

I still love Steve/Kayla, what can I say...

SOD definitely got Worst Story right, should have also labeled it as “worst & unnecessary story” as well. What a big waste of time of pushing such a terrible retcon enough to cause Y&R to temporarily get bumped to #2. Sheesh 

 

B&B definitely has been the worst soap of the year there’s no hope for Thudley. 

 

Progress beyond the endless repetitive triangles would be a start. Stuff like falling into a vat of acid, faking a fatal illness, and talking to/making out with a mannequin is just silly trashy shock value to cover up in vain how bad the show is. Wait, the cover up is even worse!

Write it like a primetime show and old school soap. There should be a mix of comedy and drama with lots of sex appeal. Gay, lesbian and bisexual characters should be the norm. Where are the vixens at? I’d bring them back. Also more modern stories instead of just a bunch of repetitive triangles. B&B is in LA and has no business being as bland as it is. Especially when they have the characters both on and off screen to tell modern stories.

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was 
    • That makes sense. What a messy time for the show. And any changes they made were mostly for the worse.
