Hahah and a 16 year old girl shouldn't know what "Didn't you go hard at Uptown last night?  Respect" means... right? I don't have children, but I don't remember talking to my aunt about that stuff nor know what bars they hang out at and what 'go hard' means haha.  Maybe I'm just too old these days.

I agree with all of this. I'm committed to BTG, too, and I watch every day -- giving it more of my attention than the other soaps get.

Still, problems exist that need to be fixed, and that includes storyline that's new and fresh and that moves. I love all the parties and get-togethers, but I need plot progression at the same time. I really thought BTG would be much edgier than it is. It hasn't moved soaps into the 21st century. Characters are energized and talking, but not much is HAPPENING.

I worried about and cringed at all the "Wait for sweeps!" comments made in the first 2 months, but said nothing. Sorry, that's old-school thinking. I do not want to wait for sweeps for something big to happen. Give it to me on any unexpected weekday. If you do, you'll have your audience there for sweeps.

I know I shouldn't speak for anyone but myself, but I acknowledge that too many of us expected too much from the jump.

Starting a new soap is an enormous endeavor and challenge, and in many ways BTG has done a great job. Still, we were calling EVERYTHING incredible and magnificent and game-changing and brilliant from episode one. We were handing out Emmys all over the place. Now we're getting back to earth.

I'm comfortable with the criticism of the show which has obviously increased dramatically. It's honest and genuine, and I hope people from the show see it and use it.

I criticize the other soaps all the damn time, many times to the point of abuse LOL. I won't be treating BTG any differently.
