ABC Daytime Is A Flipping Trainwreck

Though I couldn't say it in the title, ABC Daytime is a freakin clusterfuck of bad storylines and overpimped characters who are forced down our damn throats every day.

I am the BIGGEST GH fan of all time and I am so freakin disgusted with the show right now. There are only a few brightspots and they are dulled by the other crap on the show......

ABC Daytime has gone so far downhill it isn't funny. Back in 2004, I watched all three soaps every single day and loved them. This year, they started going down one by one. First I hated AMC (now it's a bit more likable but still sucks), then I hated OLTL (Which i still HATE WITH A PASSION!!), and now I hate GH thanks to their stupid pointless crap that they call a storyline.

I hate how all the ABC soaps feel the need to focus on like 3 or 4 major characters. GH is the worst about that. They won't even END an episode without Jason, Carly, Sonny, or Sam. The other day, the ending was Sonny taking pills. Who the FREAK CARES IF HE'S TAKING PILLS!?!?!?!?!?

ITA. It's like the heart has been ripped from all three shows. Instead of writing for its audience, the [!@#$%^&*]-scared writers are cobbling together SLs for their own amusement or, more likely, pandering to Frons' every whim. Meanwhile Frons is desperate to attract that hazy Young Women/Teen demographic -- to the detriment of everybody else.

Frankly, if I was a teen, I'd be mortified to think that the current pig-swill being served up on ABC Daytime is "only" good enough for my demographic.

BRING BACK CLAIRE LABINE AND PATRICK MULCAHEY!

BRING ON NEW WRITERS WHO LOVE THE GENRE AND THE SOAP OPERA THEY ARE WRITING FOR!

All of ABCDF sucks so bad right now. I think GH is the worst because they have a bunch of random people sleeping together and its damned sick. I just gave up all three shows and won't be back until Frons gets fired or gets some decent writers. I would prefer both.

My ultimate wish is to see GH bottom down in the ratings below Passions. Yes I'm vindictive but they are screwing over every fanbase and its ridiculous.

If you are a fan of Guza and/or Frons (though why the hell would you be?) please don't post here. This is a thread to bash the hell out of these 2 morons who are killing ABC and GH specifically.

This is a thread for anyone who thinks Frons and his minion Luza is damaging GH beyond repair. Or anyone who thinks Frons is damaging ABCDF completely and utterly.

Guza is the worst thing that has happened to GH. Take this summer and all the random f-king going on. How lame and unoriginal. Try writing a story about family, romance, or damn even ... actual hospital drama?

How many ways can they slice and dice this show? Gloria Monty must be rolling around in her grave to see what this show has become.

Here comes my diatribe:

They have one of the most talented (a little overrated, yes) casts and they are not utilizing them at all:

The top 5 reasons I think GH and Guza/Frons suck:

1. Never/rarely use vets

2. Rape, murder, shoot, sexually assault, and otherwise terrorize the female characters

3. The storylines are written out of Guza's ass

4. Disgusting porn and incest overload

5. Jason and Sonny always look like the heroes while crapping on characters like Lucky and Mac

Damn FIRE THESE TWO NOW!

OLTL sucks, plain and simple.

If they have to be stuck with Frons, at least give us decent writers, especially on OLTL which is at an all time low.

You know OL is in bad shape when Erika Slezak is only on for 5 times out of a whole month. There is something really wrong when the most Emmy winning lead actress is hardly on, has no story, her love interest is taken away from her, sorry OLTL you suck.

    • 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.
