Boy, things are bad over on NBC.
They fired Marlena! And John-who-used-to-be-Roman!
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Why the fuck would you fire Dierdre Hall?
If you think she's a crummy actress you've been thinking it for a looooooooooong time, you know?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Those are the two most well-known characters! Dude. That's bad.

I hope they give Marlena an appropriate send-off. Like, she could enter long-term rehab for her compulsive meddling or something.

I think she should be possessed again and then leave through a portal to some hell dimension.

Now, now, he was never actually Roman, they just thought that he was for a while until Wayne Northrup got bored and decided that he wanted to come back.

Our wings are not tired.
Huh, I'd been seeing more of the show lately during my lunch. No, it hasn't improved at all. The cast is bloated, but I would have dumped 10 of the newer cheaper people before dumping 2 leads. Not surprisingly they didn't check with me first. I hope they give her a decent sendoff. 30+ years on the same job. Whoa.

True, but after 30 years, 10 new people probably didn't equal half of their salary.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Forget about bailing out the car industry; bail out the soap operas! I joke, but I would hate to see the whole industry disappear.
Why the fuck would you fire Dierdre Hall?
Because she was the best paid actress on the soap.
