There has been a lot of talk about having the soaps, GL, and ATWT turned into 3 days a week instead of the 5 days of week. What do you think? Seeing, that
GL, has such poor ratings and all, and I guess that ATWT is'nt doing that much better. Would you LIKE to see these soaps 3 times a week or the 5 times of
week???

I hadn't heard that at all. Hmmm. Personally, I'd rather see GL once a week if it was well written as opposed to the 5 day a week mess it is right now.

i agree that 3 days of better written would be better than 5 of badly written.

If its 3 days of good SL's that would be fine.
But my stand is................. if its 5 days of poop, or 3 days of poop, its still poop!

I hadn't heard about this, either. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I would like to stay at 5 times a week, but the writing
needs to improve.

I have never heard of this idea either and I think it stinks. If they want to lose more viewers, this is the way to do it. All they need to do is write
better stories and hire good actors. Having a soap on daily, makes viewing a habit. If you change that pattern, you lose viewers.

I want the Soaps to survive and thrive. I think that an argument can be made that in any society, such an outlet is needed for people's innate desire for
drama and fiction.
Sigh ... this is all very sad to contemplate. I have been watching Korean Soaps lately (I am not Korean, I do not understand the language and need to read the English subtitles, but I am of Asian descent so I understand the cultural issues which are very similar to my native land), for the last three or four years, because I think that the American Soaps may be doomed. There are some excellent on-line resources available to watch Korean Soaps. I tried watching telenovellas, but the cultural factors are too alien to me though I live in SoCal amidst a lot of Spanish language speakers. The point I am trying to make is that one way or another, we all will need to fulfil our need for fiction and drama ...

I'd say, stick a fork in them..they will be done if they cut the days....and do nothing about the absymal writing. GL has about the best bunch of Actors on
any soap ever...ATWT's too.....GL's filming and writing just plain SUCK. There is no other way to put it. It's terribly sad for me when even Reva
sl's can no longer interest me. I haven't watched in two weeks and scantily prior to that...I tuned in yesterday briefly, only to be bored to tears,
and insulted by the stupid Turk and Dirk crap.

I think it should stay five days a week. I also agree that if they go to three days a week, the Soaps will suffer and that will probably be the end of it all.

Nooo! Keep it 5 days. If they change it, it will just be the beginning of the end...

E, I hate to say it, but I think its getting to that point. I guess they figure going three days would give the writers more chance to think of
something......anything!!

You know,If it went on nights like a Dallas or Knots Landing,It might work.
I would watch it if they brought back some Bowers and had some good sl's for them. I'm talking "real" Bowers,not Mel and family. |
