What teenagers? Reggie and Dani? Wow, 2... and they're ever hardly on.

I see you like Y&R and GH. I find Y&R very boring (puts me to sleep) and GH is just awful -- with everything revolving around Sonny (who's played by an atrocious actor that mumbles and stutters over all his lines).

I’ve watched AMC since the late 70s, and I believe it’s in awesome shape right now.

Yeah AMC hardly has any teenagers at all... I mean Bianca, Maggie, Babe, Jamie and JR are much older than teenagers. and anyways for a show called "All My Children" i find it hard to believe that anyone would expect that it wouldn't have children and teenagers. "AMC" is in very good shape right now, the best its been for sometime now... sure some things could be improved, but honestly its great right now. Its been on an upward swing ever since 2003. I do fear however that once Bianca and Maggie leave that the show won't have any stories left to tell... The Maria/Zack thing is boring as all heck, no one really cares about Ryan/Greenlee at all, Ethan/Kendall stink... and thats really all the stories they have right now. I've heard rumors that in the fall we'll see Rebecca Budig and Eva La Rue leave, but nothing has been confirmed yet. i wouldn't be surprised though. It would suck then, cause who would be left???? and with La Lucci not be written for right now i'd be hard pressed to find a leading male or female character on the show...

Molson · 02-27-2005, 04:34 AM

Well excuse me!!!!!! Back when I use to watch it everyone's kids were getting older then other young people started coming on and it got to be way too much... I am tired of everything always about the younger generation(not to say I am old but it gets really boreing)
And I have flipped through the channels when I am surfing and the sound and the sets now look weird......It is sooooo different now, I just don't like it......

But I will agree about the Sonny storyline all the freak'n time..... I wished that the writers would kill him off for good.....Big tough Sonny, noone can get hi...Huh!!!!!

And yes Y&R can be really slow to, but there is still a few people on there I like....So I tape all of my soaps so I can bypass all the boreing stuff and the commercials...... So I guess we could agree to disagree??

I think all soaps go through periods of time where they are slow. Though, for the most part, I don't see this happening on Y&R.

Well, I enjoy Kendall/Ethan (actually, I enjoy Kendall with anyone)... but I agree about Ryan/Greenlee (

)

I also like Babe and Jamie.

My all time favorite was Another World.... I really wished they got rid of a few others and left that one alone......

As it is I tape Y&R and GH so I can watch it in the evenings so I can skip the boring parts and the commercials.... The problem with these writers is they have the actors always repeating everything.... It is very frustrating.......

Well there's very few teens on AMC now and the ones who are are actually very good actors with great storylines, AMC is the best it's been in a very long time IMO

Molson · 04-06-2005, 04:25 AM

Well I am finding now on Y&R... Mac, Lilly, Sierra, Davonne(who hasn't been there much) are on all the time and without much of an interesting storyline...and Cassie trying to fit in.... I think that Sierra and Davonne are not very good actors and if they are going to keep them on then they should hook up...But it also looks like Daniel and Lily might start something...But why can't they just hang as friends like they do...and this JT and his hidden love for Britney is getting old....

And GH my other soap, there is Georgie, Dillan, Deago and Brooklyn they are all boring too.....

I feel really bad for the little kids like Christina and Morgan...I mean how are they suppose to understand about real parents and pretend parents... all those shots of Christina sitting with Sonny or Alexis and saying mommy and daddy......doesn't that confuse them...Or do they wear some kind of ear plugs so they don't hear all that is being said???? I always wonder about that......there venting over..... JMO does anyone agree????

chelsealiz · 04-08-2005, 07:37 PM

Does anyone else watch Passions? I think that and General Hospitol rank as my favorite soaps! They are so good and their storylines keep you waiting for more!

Mines gotta be days of our lives. The plot just thickens over time

Out of these my favorite is As the World Turns but my actual favorite is guiding light although my favorite story line was in As the World Turns.
