ACKKK. Please not any more net police. I think the whole tread of
has just as much a right to be discussed as anything. Why can't
folks complain? This is a soap, DOOL, formum, wherein any topic
about the show, positive or negative, can be discussed. I for
one, have been a fan, but what with the Crystal Chappell show,
the firing of SSH, the way Richard Biggs is treated, etc. do not
like the show as I once did, and this group is where I vent my
frustrations, and opinions. I think Crystal Chappell is the
poorest actress--other than whoever plays Billie, so I complain,
but others like her and they post to this affect. Everyone is
intitled to her/his own opinion. Now this latest thing about being called
"Ms. Bo Brady" has merit as a topic just as much as any other,
since Carly is supposedly this liberated woman, a professional,
and by referring to herself as this is a mistake. It does not
fit into the character.  So it angers some viewers. Personal
I missed it for I tend to FF through most of Crystal's and
RKK's scenes. 

Again, please no net police....I it ticks me off that only
"positive" opinions can be voiced. That is the whole 
problem with the show in the first place, Corday et al
refuse to listen to any negative comments, and hence the
soap's p*ss poor ratings. Corday has his rose colored
glasses to tell him the soap is top notch etc...But the
Emperor has no clothes. Yes, there are good spots and
we post when we like something. But for the most part
this is a place were folks can meet, and talk about
DOCL--the good, and for the most part the BAD. Please, let's
not have to place a header to warn of negative opinions.


Spudnix--


viewers well they have a right to vent their opinions. Most
people watch the soap alone, and again, this is their means of
getting together and discussing the show.
