well I just have to say that is what this show reminds me of.... only the BELL aint saving this diatribe of teenage twank...

Owen and Donna fluff stuff... Donna and her man sex junk.... DONNA FGS WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS SOAP? Who the hell is DONNA in compared to what this soap was supposed to be about. You gotta wonder....... what has happened?

Where is Stephanie? Where is the Design house? Where is the BUSINESS stuff? Where is the rest of the CAST??? Who the hell is Owen? Why does he have more air time than Thorne? This soap does not honor its long time actor's investment.

It is, a bit, as if this soap just USES the actors, for all it can, to try to grasp that almighty rating. Kind of a user soap mentality.

Stupid, if you ask me. Life dont happen that way..... and we as viewers dont want Disney world or a fake reality..... believe it or not. Soaps have changed from an ESCAPE type of show to a show where we have seen people we have watched for YEARS in acting roles that intrigue us in a more realistic fashion. There is too much information out there to be googled to have ignorance at your pen. Period.

 

You just have to wonder if people know about balance in the writing world... You got to wonder if the writers actually know what this soap is supposed to be about.......

I have always viewed a soap opera as a work of FICTION, with some hint of reality.  I would not want real life to be like that.   To me it's a continuous movie for TV of FICTION, PRETENSE, and MAKE BELIEVE. An escape, like a good fictional novel. jmo
