Soap Fans tell turn the tables: We Hate It!
One Life to Live
Blair gets naughty and Jessica marries the wrong guy?
From: Melanie V.: Blair needs to watch Starr more. There is no way I would let my daughter do half of that. Any way I like Blair. She is sweet but I can't believe she stabbed Todd in the back like she did. That's crazy. Jessica, she's nuts for marrying Antonio. I like Nash more, because he loved both sides of her! Antonio does not like the other side. She needs to give him up.
Passions
The love triangles are tiring.
From: Jessica S.: OHMIGOSH!!! Why do you guys do this? I can't believe you guys... getting everyone's hopes up then bringing it down... why can't someone on the show get what they want... if not Theresa then Kay at least.... please for once... I beg of you if you guys really do hear this...
From: Natalie R.: I have been watching your show since it started. I am getting so tired of the Ethan and Teresa and Gwen thing. It has been going on since the show started. Can you please move on with it? People almost don't want to watch the show because it is the same stuff all the time. And things drag on forever. Thank you!
The Young and the Restless
Gloria in all her glory?
From: Debra D.: I cannot understand viewers feeling sorry for Gloria and her crew. Gloria claims to have loved John so much, but she poisoned that cream which ruined his company and caused a death all because John's kids didn't like her. And let's not forget that Kevin never paid for statutory rape of Lilly and trying to kill Colleen. I hope the writers don't let Gloria latch on to another rich guy (Bardwell). She doesn't deserve to live in the lap of luxury, which is why I'm glad Jack did what he did. Even though John would have wanted her to be rich after his death, she doesn't deserve a dime of his money.
Profanity worsens!
From: Janet B.: I have watched Y and R for many years. Over the last couple of years I have noticed the Hells and the Damns creeping into the conversations. What's next, the "F" or "Sh" word? Y & R has done an outstanding job in giving information about social problems and illness over the years. Why not be a leader in cleaning up the vocabulary of the Soaps. I know these words are common place among the young, but there is not a viewer out there that would say, "Well we just can't watch Y and R anymore because they don't use swear words."

All My Children
And you thought that you were alone in your thoughts!
From: Michelle M.: I was very disappointed to learn the character David Hayward is leaving. Vincent Irizarry is a great actor and the show will suffer. Vincent made us laugh and hate him for the past 9 years. I feel you have made a big mistake and I wish he was staying.
As The World Turns
Adam’s arrogant ways?:
From: Michele S.: I really don’t care for Adam on how he thinks he is better than the others. What is the motive with Will/Casey? As well, Carly Jack should get back together!
The Bold and the Beautiful
Shane and Donna – ‘two thumbs down’
From: Keysha E.: I hate what’s happening these days. I hate Donna. If Ridge found out she lied, he will never forgive her for that. I hate Shane because he is not a good person. He is up to something and I don’t like it.
Days of Our Lives
On Marlena’s recent parachute out of an airplane!
From: Roger H.: I have to say that the jumping out of an airplane was the most absurd thing I’ve seen on Days. I have been watching for almost 15 years now. I’ve been a corporate pilot for 30 years and I just can’t believe that there isn’t anyone that stopped that from happening before it went to tape.
General Hospital
On Laura’s return:
From: Rose M.: I think you are really mean to bring Laura back and then take her away. Why even bring her back? I am getting to the point where I don’t want to watch General Hospital.
Guiding Light
Cancer free after revived from a flat line?
From: Kathie B.: I think you did a total disservice to Reva’s character by putting her on her deathbed with minutes to live, only to revive her cancer free — this is AWFUL. Don’t you think you are giving false hope to REAL breast cancer patients? You could have handled this differently. People don’t survive a flat line to come back cancer free… Very poor writing on your part… In fact, besides Reva being cloned years ago — this was your second worse writing in GL history. I, among others I’ve talked to, will not be watching anymore…
