Well, it's that time again!!!

 

How would you grade Y&R, DAYS, B&B, and GH for May Sweeps this year?

 

A

 

B

 

 

C

 

D

 

F

 

SHADY GRADE/GIF?

 

I feel like GH is cuising toward a C...and that could change. (An aside...I never gave GH a February Sweeps grade which was a B for me. Originally the first week of March was the end of February, but well a censored name here had a trial. I felt GH built up the drama and the double wedding perfectly. Now the fallout...

This month it has been enjoyable, but not as focused (so far) as February.

Great minds.

 I haven't gotten to last week yet, but I feel I am going to feel this month is a C compared to February's B. 

 

That reminds me of your post about Y&R/B&B and how DAYS and GH at least have villains that can drive story if need be. Perhaps what the Bell soaps need...is a...dare I say it...Sheila?

Indeed. I would love Sheila on Y&R or B&B. Y&R has Ashland, Sally, and Chelsea right now, and they’re all weak sauce. Sally and Chelsea aren’t really villains and don’t really even work as sympathetic schemers. Ashland is such a watered-down Big Bad whose treachery is not at all evident on screen. Total waste of a good actor.


So yeah, Kimberlin, all is forgiven.

Maybe Sheila works with Sally to get to Lauren, while Sheila helps Sally with Phyllis (although they probably don’t want to remind us of the Pheila debacle). I dunno. I don’t think Y&R wants to use TEB anymore like that.

 

The real villains they need to get rid of: Steve Kent and Molina/Griffith.

Since Sheila was brought up...have there been any updates on Kimberlin Brown’s visit to the studio? Supposedly it was for some sort of special, but I haven’t heard anything about it since.

      I LOVED HER TOO! She was crazy but great on Desperate Housewives! And that "The Powers That Be" show in which she was John Forsythe's daughter as well! Many people she would've done a great Maris on Frasier too
    • Hey boys, I know these aren’t really thirst traps but I think they belong here. Don’t ya agree?

    • That’s one of the things I’ve liked since the new writers came in; more interactions between characters that they hadn’t really had scenes with 
    • Such a missed opportunity… 
    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
    • As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.
