Now here is a soap I could watch
Now I never as a rule watch any soaps.....too depressing, too silly, too boring...
But I could watch this silly froth from the US.....
sometimes all you need is a pretty face and a bad script
There is only one soap that I have been watching for about 20 years....The Young and The Restless. Give it a try John, you never know. It has a little bit of this and that but no developed gay theme as of yet, just one gay character who shows up now and again. I for one who have a difficult time distinguishing between soaps and all the other stuff on TV. Some are good and some are not.
I lasted about 1 minute. Must be an orientation problem. Fast forwarded and then I did perk up when the pretty black girl walked in, but then she opened her mouth, so I gave up.
So, you did film studies at Sheffield University, did you John?
Haven't watched a soap in over 30 years, most of the ones I used to watch are off the air anyway! If it's a soap you could watch...then watch away John! ;-)
i was hooked on Luke and Noah in As The World Turns for over a year. I'd have to watch via the internet because I used to work during the day. Now that I'm home in the daytime, most soaps have been canceled. I did like the Fish charactor here but could only commit to one bad acting soap at a time.
Hey - I watched six series of Numb3rs just to ogle Judd Hirsch and Rob Morrow.... (Everyone thought I fancied David Krumholtz but he's just too curly!)
The full series must be a wonderful period drama - seventies dialogue achingly written, actors in their whatevers playing teenage roles, body language checked over with a McCarthy tape measure and a token... chap in a tight black t-shirt who drinks beer as though it were a kevlar vest impervious to sexuality. Excrutiatingly cute though it was, that wasn't filmed in Kansas!
Someone needs to put something in all four of those beer bottles. Like English (or Welsh) beer. Or Rohypnol.
Kish...are Dish(es)...lol.. Show was cancelled. Check out gay characters on DOOL..Days of Our Lives!..mm
