How long has it been since anyone has talked about Tim, crafts, or soaps in here. (C'mon, y'all, our soaps are dying.)
'Lies My Parents Told Me'
The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death
[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 gleefully tap danced on the grave of One Life To Live.
I tried to watch GH the other day and it was absolutely insufferable. The people weren't even all that pretty anymore. Sad times.
Slow TV: National Knitting Evening is now up on Netflix.
All my soaps are gone. I tried to watch GH for a while but when they lost the right to use the OLTL characters, I stopped. I do miss having a soap though.
I've watched Days since birth and GH since elementary school. Honestly, right now? GH is better.
It hasn't been good overall, but it is letting Laura get on with her life. And Genie Francis is still so pretty and hasn't distorted her face with injectibles, plus she can act her way out of a paper bag.
I was very anti Days back in the day because that's what all the cool kids were watching, but with Vicent Izzary on it, I have been tempted to check it out.
I was an NBC girl - Days of our Lives, Another World, Santa Barbara (mmmm, Cruz Castillo). Genie had a brief sojourn on Days as Diana somebody, a nosy reporter. Who was sleeping with Roman Brady, who was a widower, but then his wife Marlena came back, and then they found out that he wasn't really Roman Brady because the real Roman came back, and . . .
I still miss ATWT and GL, but I did watch Days of Our Lives from birth. Apparently one of my first words was the name of someone from the soap The Doctors. I think this is when my mother put me in nursery school instead of having my grandma watch me!
My grandmother and mother were ABC soaps diehards, so I was also an ABC soaps diehard, although I did have a brief HS flirtation with Santa Barbara because it was sooo pretty and all. Although I loved all the ABC soaps, All My Children was my absolute favorite. Erica Kane now. Erica Kane forever. Every now and again, I still try with GH because it's the sole survivor and I feel like I should, but it's only pure nostalgia that keeps me coming back. I just don't recognize any of those characters, even the ones I'm supposed to know. And some of the recasts are just really, really bad. New Carly just never sat right with me and new Jason is not even pretty. What's the point?
