Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Hey, Y&R, what’s the dealio? Why wait till now to flesh out Rafe? Just because Colleen is back to be his talk-to? Couldn’t we have seen the flashes of depth we saw yesterday before he got busy with Adam? Viewers tend to like a little dimension to characters, especially when they’re suddenly part of a front-burner story.… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Watching ATWT at home on Friday instead of at the office, I was reminded of the tagline for Alien: “In space, no one can hear you scream.” Without my co-workers around, I was free to shriek like a horror movie ingenue at Hunter and Alison. Of course, the worst of it happened on Thursday, but still…I… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I’ve found the perfect way to deal with Meg’s forever-revolving door of swains on ATWT: focusing on how pretty Marie Wilson‘s hair looks. Love the deep red highlights! However, I can’t hand-wave Margo’s acceptance of Adam quite as easily. In fact, it makes me see red in a different way. ATWT has done a beautiful… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I gotta tell ya, I’ve known the “big secret” about ATWT’s Riley for months and I still got chills at the end of today’s episode. I cannot say enough good things about Ellen Dolan, who has played the notes of Margo’s grief and gradual acceptance of Riley perfectly as this story unfolded. Why she’s frequently wasted as… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Let’s talk various soaps, shall we? Sadly, Y&R won’t be on the list as President Obama decided to host a press conference that spanned the 12:30-1:30 slot. This should probably go on record as yet another change from the Bush administration: President Bush always used to pre-empt our 10 a.m. GL viewing! Speaking of which,… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

What is UP with Y&R lately? It’s just been a special brand o’ crazy, usually reserved for, say, PASSIONS (may it rest in peace). Adam in a purple veil and a ratty black wig pretending to be Sabrina? Yikes! And then take Monday’s episode. I tuned in and got three scarring images. First, there was… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I’m glad I can always count on my co-workers to get me through especially trying episodes of my shows. Joe and I “live-blogged” some of today’s ATWT … purely by accident, because we couldn’t stop e-mailing each other in morbid fascination. This is dedicated to Bonnie; she knows why! (Or, actually, given her lack of… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala
