Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

I’m going to try and hit a few different shows in this entry, including Y&R, NBC’s MERLIN, and B&B — with no mentions of Rafe/Adam, babies or hats!  Holy HIPAA violation, Batman! Y&R’s Olivia told Neil and Devon about Lily’s cancer diagnosis before telling the patient herself? Last I checked, Lily is a twice married,… Read More 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

I’ve said it before, but I’m a sucker for a slow-burning love story and that’s part of why I’m such a fan of gay-themed storylines on soaps. By virtue of daytime treading carefully with the issue, stories like OLTL’s Kyle and Fish are being told at a snail’s pace compared to the whirlwind courtships and weddings… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Cutting away from Y&R’s Adam and Rafe kissing isn’t going to make it any less gay and, therefore, more palatable for conservative viewers. Odds are they’ve alreadytuned out because the mere existence of gay characters disturbs them…or because Adam’s story in general is so crazy. A little smooch action isn’t going to make it any worse.… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala

Cue another day of completely inappropriate laughter on my part when it comes to Y&R’s Adam and Rafe. Honestly, I’m trying to figure out what I find so gosh-darned funny. Maybe it’s just Adam, who is so, so ridiculous, especially in the context of a show like Y&R, which is usually “serious business.”  Michael Muhney‘s… 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

Oh, GH. What AM I going to do with you? You give me the awesomeness of Coleman and then the ick of Ethan manhandling Rebecca. What’s next, he rapes her on a dance floor just like his hero, daddy Luke? Though, really, the stalker-rapist vibe that’s emanating from him now may be positive news for… Read More Soap Opera Weekly: Blogging With Mala
