PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

3. "Passions" |
Tummy! You watch Passions too? What is your opinion? I find it so bad it's good. Kind of like driving past a car accident and not wanting to look but having to look anyway.The men are so stupid (but very yummy). Most stupid? Antonio and TC, with Sam close behind. The women are either stupid or evil. My favorites are Mrs. Wallace, Tabitha and Julian. I also like Luis but the whole "Keep Sheridan and Luis apart forever" theme is getting old. And Beth needs to go away. Forever. I only watch DOOL and Passions. And I only watch them once every other week. Been watching Days forever! Only started watching Passions after I got laid off from work. I boycotted Passions when it first came on because Another World was my favorite and I was royally pissed that they had cancelled AW to bring on Passions. But I got over that.

Every year during my breaks off from school I watch General Hospital and One Life to Live...but then by the time a snow day rolls around I am waaay behind. I do try and keep up with those two, though.

4. "Days & Y&R for me...." |
I've been watching these two soaps FOREVER! I swear I can remember watching Y & R when Katherine and Jill were still fighting over Philip Chancellor the 1ST! And Days I've been watching since Bo & Hope were kids and Tony was married to Anna. I kind of half watch half read the newspaper when I get home or sometimes watch while I'm making supper. It's not a big deal for me to miss a show or even a week of shows. I don't get bent outta shape about it like some soap watchers do. Got a question about Y & R and Sharon. I get it a day ahead of most people (Canada thing) and yesterday Sharon and Grace were arguing and Sharon opened the trunk of her car and the body was GONE! Did I miss something? Where did it go? She seemed as surprised as I did. Did she get rid of it and not remember? I missed a show or two and will miss it again until Friday.
*waves to Tishy* Nice to see you around. *hugs*

6. "All my grandchildren" |
Haven't watched in years, but how's this for reaching back over the dim annals of television time: When I first watched All My Children, Erica was in COLLEGE. There was a big abortion plotline. Also much ado about Viet Nam, where Phil eventually went, leaving Tara to Chuck, giving birth to Little Charlie, etc. etc. etc. It is very comforting to watch a couple of minutes when home sick and see that Susan Lucci, through the healthy living, skillful cosmetic application, surgery and/or ritual demonic sacrifice, looks pretty much as good as she did 30 years ago.

I'm a fickle soap fan and switch around a lot. Right now I'm liking ATWT and GH. I was watching Passions, but got SO sick of watching Sheridan get amnesia, kidnapped, almost killed and fought over by two idiots that I quit (at least for a while!)

19. "WELTEK...I remember that!!!!!!!!!" |
You are right, it was GL. His name was Brent and his "girl name" was Marion or something like that with an "m". He was trying to break up Lucy (the actress could be TWINS with the gal who plays Felicia on GH) and Alan Michael. It was such a weird storyline, but the acting was so good! It was almost a "Psycho" type thing because he had issues with his mother and talked to himself in the mirror a lot. The creepy part was that the actor who played Brent had a mental breakdown in real-life due in part to the stress he was under from playing such a freak (or so the Soap Opera press hinted at). I had forgotten all about that!!!I'm gonna repost what I posted at the tailend of the DOOL thread, because I am thinking people don't always want to open 100+ threads due to the time for them to load up. ATTENTION SOAP FANS! ESPECIALLY DOOL FANS... THIS IS A MUST SEE! Especially for longtime viewers of the show! I stumbled upon this site a couple of months ago and they change the video clips every couple of weeks. THIS time, they have segments of an episode that ran February 14, 1966!!!! It's in black and white and Tom and Alice look sooooooo wonderful and young! I had forgotten how handsome MacDonald Carey was! Marie Cheatam as their daughter Marie is in it and John Clarke (WOW....HE was handsome too and looks so very young) is Mickey and they have Julie (but it's not Susan Seaforth Hayes. It's some other chick and it's back when Julie was in HS). They discuss Julie and her brother Steven............shoot, I had practically forgotten about Steven...do you guys remember him? When I watched, he was played by Stephan Schnetzer (sp?) the guy who played Cass Winthrop on AW. And they discuss Addie - Julie's mom(who I remember) and Julie's dad Ben Olson(who I don't remember...remember the name, but never saw him on screen). Anyway, it's a real hoot to see the hairstyles, hear the lame "soapy" background music, and to see beloved characters from way back when! Here is the link: World of Soap Themes When you get there, just click on the Days of Our Lives picture on the right side. You won't be sorry! And while you're there, check out their other stuff too! Lots of good soap memories over there! And like I said, they update and provide new clips every couple of weeks! Woo Hoooo! Also, if you are into AMC, there is an awesome clip there from 1982 when Liza was a college freshman, Jesse Hubbard, the "real" Ruth Martin, Nina and Cliff, Jenny and Greg........ahhhhhh the memories! Check it out! MM Maybe this world is another planet’s hell

23. "RE: WELTEK...I remember that!!!!!!!!!" |
Mandy is totally right about the Brent-Marian storyline. There was someone, I think it was a cop that Brent killed who figured out that Marian was Brent and wrote MAR in blood. Everyone thought it was Marcus and he was arrested.Rick Hearst was an awesome A-M. I think he was my favorite. I loved his storyline with Lucy, who I agree, could be Felicia's little sister.

I have been watching GH every day since 1990. That is the only soap I watch. I catch OLTL once in a blue moon, and I always watch All My Children on Fridays. BTW.. LadyT, when do you think Bianca is going to get her baby back? summer 2006??

20. "RE: Soaps" |
Okay, Tishy already knows this, but the rest of you don't.I am a soap-aholic. I keep up on EVERY soaps storylines through Soap Opera Digest (I have been a faithful reader of that magazine since I was about 8 years old when it first came out and was a MONTHLY mag...now it's weekly). I started watching soaps as a toddler with my mom....I remember Kay and Jill fighting over Phillip Chancellor the FIRST also Lightsy! LOL! And the Brooks and Fosters .... Y&R's premier families....which have now been replaced by the Newmans and Abbots. I've watched DOOL since then as well and remember when Brooke (Bob Anderson's daughter) burned her fingers intentionally so she would have no fingerprints because she had a new identity and didn't want anyone to trace her. I used to watch Search for Tomorrow (Jo! I loved her!) and Sommerset (a spin-off of Another World), and Another World and Texas (another spinoff) and Santa Barbara and Sunset Beach and Capitol and For Richer, For Poorer and Dark Shadows (reruns...I'm not quite old enough to have been around for the originals) and Love of Life and Ryan's Hope and Generations (Vivica Fox baby...wooo hoo!). Heck, at one time or another, I have watched every soap ever shown from 1972 on! I LOVE SoapNet! It is my favorite channel! Every night before I go to bed I watch the Another World reruns! LOL! I wish they could get the rights to the reruns of GL, ATWT, Y&R from like the 70's. I know ATWT is good now, but I believe it was at it's best when Doug Marland was alive. That man knew how to spin a tale like no other! Do you remember Doug Cummings (played by John Wesley Shipp) and his obsession with Kim (who was the Empath on an episode of the original Star Trek) back when Julianne Moore played Frannie/Sabrina? It was CHILLING! At this point in time, the shows I watch religiously are AMC and OLTL. I catch my fair share of GH too. I STOPPED watching Days after they killed off Alice, but now that she is really alive, I have been tuning in occasionally. I used to LOVE Passions when Timmy and Tabitha were on...my very favorite episodes were when the Prom boat was sinking and Tabby and Timmy were in the water and he yells "HELP! HELP! Save Timmy from the Jaws of Death!" LMAO! Way too funny! I was sad also when he passed away, he was the only reason I would tune in! As Tishy can attest to, I can and have talked about soaps for hours on end. Any time there is a soap-related thread, I will be here! LOLOL! Since there seems to be quite a few of us here, we should come up with some type of Trivia Game every week or so. I had such a blast coming up with remembering Weltek's story line that she was thinking of. Maybe we could do something like that? Okay, I'll shuddup now. I do believe this is the longest post I've ever written on these boards! LMAO! MM Maybe this world is another planet’s hell

My dad used to say he did not watch soaps and yet when Y&R was on he would ask why was Victor in the desert. He didn't have us fooled. He also had a difficult time with Titanic because Victor was on it and it wasn't a believable story for him!
