Oh Please Give it a Rest

You know what they say about the soap operas.  Watch once per year is all that is required and your caught up on the story line.  Honestly, its true.  Let us take a look at one that I have been watching since the 60's.  Day of Our Lives.  The writers of this show, have made these story lines so predictable, that its laughable. Once again, Bo and Hope have split up, and they are bringing in a former love of Bo's to complicate the matter.  One can only yawn as the storyline progresses.  As a regular viewer, we are so sick and tired of Hope playing the self rightous bitch, and oh, poor me.  The Actress who plays this charactor does not have many lines to memorize anymore.  They are all the same lines, whine and moan.   One can only pray the writers give this chick some backbone soon.

Then there is the storyline of Nichole.  Jesus H Tits.  Seriously, have you ever seen anyone talk to themselves so much that you honestly believe this person should be in a mental ward somewhere?  The only people you really come in contact with who does this, is homeless people wondering the sidewalks of large cities.   This character is also lost in the whine and moaning  world.  Oh poor me, why can't I catch a break, why am I also caught up in my own lies.  Um... talk to the writer of the show.  Sure wish a viewer had that ability.

We can say Thank you for giving the viewers a break on the Sammy Brady whine fest.  It seems as though the writer is finally giving this character a break along with a little maturity.   Of course what choice did she have after they took Marlena and John out of the picture.  Matter of  fact, most of her support system are rarely seen on the show.  Grandma Caroline Brady, has she been cut?  None of the characters siblings are available, and her Daddy, Roman Brady, may get one scene a week.  Guess you could say, Sammy had to grow a backbone!

There is one character that is getting less and less lines these days.  I do wish to thank the writers and producers for that.  Stephanie.  Who dresses that girl anyways.  Those freaken dangling oversized earrings are such a distraction, seriously.  I have changed the channel to watch Judge Joe Brown before, cause I was wanting to yank them earrings out so bad.  Along the same lines, this viewer, was gagging at the love scenes that included her and Philip.  YUCK! They had zero chemistry between them, at all!  Hard to describe how uncomfortable that made me.
