What are the storylines, couples, characters, montages, writers, basically anything that have made you MAD or CRINGE (but cringe in a bad way) on your favorite soaps?

These things make me mad about the soaps.

All My Children
1. For getting rid of Vanessa.
2. For adding these stupid teens in the show.
3. Firing the actors that play JR but keep that annoying Jamie actor.
4. Not putting Maggie and Bianca together.

Days of Our Lives
1. Adding Lisa Rina then firing her, that REALLY pissed me off

2. Not putting Tony and Marlena together

3. For keeping John.
4. Firing the actors who play the Wesleys just because the actress who plays Chole left the show.

That is all I can think of at the moment.

Days of our Lives

Writers-
TOM LANAGAN, need I say more!!

DENA HICKLEY, otherwise known as SHE-LANAGAN!!

Storylines-
ANYTHING FROM HACKLEY (HIGLEY) AND LANAGAN'S REIGN OF TERROR!!!!!

Which includes the stupid SORASed Teens.

Proposed Couples-
BY, THE EVIL HACKLEY AND LANAGAN.

Jope

Mony

(I THINK I'M GONNA BARF JUST THINKING ABOUT THOSE

)

Couples-
Brady and Chloe

Phillip and Chloe

Firings and Returns-
For bringing Lisa Rinna back without a storyline basically, then just dropping her.
For NOT firing all of the teens or backburning them.
For getting rid of Stefano then not wanting him to come back which is ALL Corday's stupid fault.

AND-

FOR NOT GIVING JARLENA A WORTH A CRAP STORYLINE IN 4 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but that's Corday and Hackley and Lanagan's faults.

That's all at the moment, basically everything goes back two Lanagan and his prodigy She-Lanagan.
