I...would say General Hospital is worse. At least GL has Bill and Lizzie. And didnt kill off Buzz Cooper, and then bring him back as a wisecracking tracksuit wearing ghost.

I hope One Life To Live win. Its the only watchable one nominated.

Also WTF is with the younger actress category. Those Y and R actresses? Seriously.

I don't think F_W can handle wank, heh. (Are you a member of F_W? You could put it up! Not that I'm advising you to, cause F_W scares me . . .)

Oh I couldn't do that, lol. I just like watching the Jizzers implode.

Tough call on which is worse -- on GL, you can't properly see OR hear the actors. But applying that to GH might make some of the show a lot more enjoyable.

Oh, hell yes.

If you guys say GL is bad, I believe you. I really do. But really now. Have you people seen AMC lately? There is nothing on that show that they're not fucking up beyond comprehension. Not a single thing. They've managed to drive even me away, which is no small feat considering A. I have the world's highest tolerance for crappy, cheesy television, and B. I have an epic girlcrush on Alicia Minshew. For shame, ABC Daytime.

Going by the soap board wank discussed above, am I correct when I assume that Fandom Wank doesn't do soap wank? Really? Why not? Is soap fandom too easy or something?

I don't think F_W has a ban on soap wank, I just don't think anyone has ever bothered to write it up.

The sucktacularness of most soaps today only made me savor the return of Ron Carlivatti's writing to OLTL yesterday. Best hour of soap I've seen in *ages*. The Natalie and Jared and Tonio and Talia payoffs were aces. As was DorLor going medieval on Marrko's...balls, hee. If the Emmy's were in any way relevant or accurate RC will be walking away with it for best show.

Kiran- 05-06-2008
Hee. OLTL is rocking lately.

Great promo for OLTL sweeps. I love ma show, after Dena Higley and Brian Frons I never though I'd have it back again.

Excuse while I gush. There are a ton of great overlapping stories (Jared lies about being a Buke, just like David the real Buke lied about being a Lord, Charlie is lying about being Rex's daddy, while Gigi lies to Rex about being Shane's Daddy, all going back to Rex lying to everyone about Todd being Sam's daddy) that are echoes of each other all set to go on blast, lots of romance, and as ever tons of humor from Tuc Watkins, and DorLor bringing the bitch down on every one. Oh and I'm loving the new guy in town Brody, he's the hot-*test*-('") tiny little man I have ever seen and he needs to throw down roots and mack on Layla.

All this talk about OLTL is making me wish I could see it....any ideas on where I can streamline it?
I know some US websites ban foreign IPs so I need a Cdn friendly site.

blixie- 06-01-2008
Unfortunately none that I know of, ABC streams only daily "recaps", but you can usually find the episodes on youtube, just enter a specific date and OLTL and you should get hits.

For any long time fans along with the return of Andrea Evans as Tina Roberts, we're getting Christopher Cousins as Cain Rogan. Cain Rogan *and* David Vickers in town at the same time. It will be Awesomeville.

The entire last week was great but my favorite bit was Ron Carlivati taking a pointed swipe at GH at around the 4:50 mark of this clip. Especially since hanging a kid on a meathook is portrayed as y'know EVIL.

Kiran- 06-01-2008
Oh that still pisses me off! Especially now that Sonny is whining about losing his parental rights.

Be glad your not hung on a meathook you greasy bastard. Whatever AJ Quartermaine deserved more. As did Billy Warlock. I LOVE YOU BILLY WARLOCK.

big chicken- 06-01-2008
I love how Sonny is totally willing to subject his best friend to a life he no longer wants without even asking him. Some friend he is.

TiffanyNichelle- 06-01-2008
I loved AJ hanging on that meathook with his little feet swinging in the air, hee. I couldn't stand AJ after BW took over. AJ used to be the underdog, BW just made him into a little weasel. Bleh.

What? Can't hear you! Lalalalalalalala! I, TOO, LOVE YOU BILLY WARLOCK! CALL ME!

I think I might try to pick up an OLTL habit. It's the only ABC soap I haven't watched for any extended period of time. GH is so boring and bad, and AMC has driven me to a point where I am currently pretending it doesn't exist. I miss having a soap to follow, so maybe I'll give the ABC show that's supposed to be good a try. If David Vickers is currently in town, well, that's all the more incentive. Love him.

big chicken- 06-02-2008
I'd try waching OLTL but I just know I'm going to get burned soon enough. There's no way Frons is going to let OLTL play on its own for long. He's going to want to get the credit for it.
