Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Think soaps are dead? Bite me! “I grew up watching and loving soap operas,” THE VAMPIRE DIARIES’ executive producer Julie Plec, tweeted on Thursday, April 14. “Today’s ABC news makes me sad.” That night, after the cancellation of AMC and OLTL, I went home and watched Plec’s show, taking some solace in the adventures of Elena,… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

It’s no secret that ABC Family’s PRETTY LITTLE LIARS is one of my favorite shows, but I also enjoy a show about some pretty grown-up liars: CBS’s THE GOOD WIFE! The soapy legal drama has more secrets than you can shake a stick at, to the point where I’m often so incensed that I yell… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I gave it a few weeks before I came to an official verdict, and, now, I can say without any reservations that I love OLTL’s Vimal and Rama! Love. I want to draw little hearts around their names. I want to invite them over to my house for chai and samosas. I basically want to… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I think I’d rather go over my skin with a cheese grater than sit through another gratuitously exploitative rape storyline on daytime. It’d be less painful.

After again experiencing the scenes where Michael initially revealed to Jason that he’d been… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I’m not really a huge fan of Freudian or Jungian psychology, but DAYS’ Melanie seems to have one serious Electra Complex! Her hero worship of Daniel is so beyond being a “Daddy’s girl” that it’s almost uncomfortable to watch. That’s not to say that I think there’s anything sexual going on (Come on people, I’m… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Riddle me this: Why isn’t GH’s new pediatrician, Terrell Jackson, Tommy Hardy? If you’re going to add someone to an already burgeoning cast, why not at least tie them to the show’s history and its founding family? Think about it…Lisa bringing Terrell to town to mess with Robin would be even more viable if he… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

“Jill tried not to think about Katherine, but it was impossible. The picture of Katherine striding into the hospital and claiming her child pushed aside everything else.” Thus begins the back cover blurb of Private Yearnings, a book I picked up at a thrift store. Written in 1986 by Angelica Aimes, it’s the fifth in… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala
