The ad was in a Soap Opera Digest.  If I find it again I will re-post
it.  Caz, if you still have the mail message or anyone else has the
post, please feel free to repost.  Or if anyone has back issues of
Soap Opera Digest it was in about three or four issues ago (I havent

I agree 100%.  I am so glad for VCRs (and the updates!!) as sometimes
I can't watch and I tape it to later get caught up.  (I've only been a
week behind and got caught up over the weekend though!)

  I don't understand why he didn't say anything at the cop shop about Kelly
  not being on the plane with Cruz.  It's not like it's going to be a
  secret for long.  I didn't get the feeling that he was going after her
  so much as he was really concerned about her well-being.  Actually, I
  was pretty confused about the whole thing.  At least he's not totally
  buying into Cruz being the murderer.  That was plain silly.

  There seems to be some difference of opinion regarding the runway scene
  with Kelly, in fact, there's some difference of opinion regarding Cruz's
  last day.  Perhaps it's time for the p-word - a POLL!  Yes, folks, I
  think there are still enough of us who still get Santa Barbara to take
  another poll.  Here we go, respond any which way you want and I'll keep
  track.  I'll post results next Tuesday.

  But he would never endanger them with the type of life he will have to

  and he did himself proud.  He gave his fans a goodbye we won't soon

  they did because they had Cruz Castillo doing things he would just never
  do.  The fact that Cruz would never leave his kids was just one more
  reason to question why the writers chose this particular way to have 
  him leave.

  I was sure they would involve Eden in Cruz's departure.  It was logical,
  it was a sure-fire way to get him out of Santa Barbara and, unlike this
  current garbage, it gave him the opportunity to leave in style while
  rekindling the great Eden/Cruz love.  Instead we get Cruz behaving unlike
  Cruz for no good reason.  Seems to me if he really wanted to aid BJ's
  *recovery* he wouldn't further cloud the issue by taking the fall for
  Frank's murder.  When she does start remembering isn't this going to
  just confuse her more?  Not to mention the guilt she's going to heap
  on herself thinking that she's somehow responsible for ruining Cruz's
  life.  Nope, it just doesn't work and Ms. Long and her group of writers
  that just gave us a very powerful story with the whole abuse saga have
  not down themselves proud with this one.  I would have preferred to see
  BJ confront Frank and Frank confront what he did to BJ that this.  Seems
  like the writers took the easy way out and in the process ruined one of
  my favorite characters on the show who deserved a much better send-off
  than this.

  Oh well, enough complaining for one morning.  In response to Allison

Anyone notice the similarities between SB and DOOL?  I have listed a few
that I've notice in the 5 months I've been watching:

			SB		DOOL

1) Wealthy family	Capwells	Alemains
2) More than one
   cop in the family	Walkers		Bradys
3) Children not knowing
   who their real
   fathers are		BJ		Nikki
4) A cop who has had
   relations with two
   sisters		Cruz		Shane

Well, that's all I can think of.  Any more-expierienced-than-I daytime junkies
out there care to add to the list?  It could be interesting.

While these two shows do have similar plots and stories going on....one of them
is about 300% better than the other. Heres a hint, it ain't DROOL

I agree. I like Dylan very much, and I was hoping he would get involved

well. As for Eleni, I am tired of her too.

I think one of the important criteria for naming shows on newsgroups
is that people can pretty quickly tell what it is without already knowing,
and that it be convenient for KILL files without killing off other threads.
For these reasons, I think 2000 Malibu serves better than 2K MR.

While we're on the subject, I checked out the show from the beginning, and
found it very quickly involving. That Perry character has to be the most
sexist writer's creation I've seen come down the pike in a LONG time though.
This is a terribly unlaudable sentiment, but I was real glad when it began
to be evident that the guy she so blindly and staunchly defended DID in fact
commit that rape and probably others (and had Multiple Personalty Disorder
to boot). And truly, I was very offended by the implication in the first
episode implying by example that rape victims were just "scorned women"
with mental problems trying to get back at old boyfriends (But I defend
their right to say it!) 

I was surprised to find that I think the acting is pretty good. And I
really love when Jade goes up against her mother or setpfather, or tells
the roommates to mind their own business. Her reactions and expressions
are so realistic! I think Lisa Hartman Black has been been given short shrift
as an actress because she is so gorgeous, but I think she's really good.
I wanted to see if I still thought so, was part of the reason I checked out
the show. Jennifer Beals is totally convincing, and of course Tuesday
?Knight? is doing a great job to get us all to hate her so much. The
MPD guy, false lawyer, mom and stepdad and intended-fiance are all good.
I like seeing Drew Barrymore playing the innocent for a change, and I LOVED
when she finally stood up to ?Joy? The slimy/network guy Joy has the hots for
does a good job. I thought the sexual dynamics between them during the theft
were totally un-led-up-to and unrealistic but hey it's just a soap.

I guess Malibu Road (2000's too long to say) is a guilty pleasure (a
real guilty pleasure) My boyfriend always complains how sexist it is
(I agree) and we make fun of it together, and I even enjoy some parts I can
take seriously. In short, it's a lot of fun.

PS: I hope they can get Jennifer Beals to keep down some food, I am worried
she won't be around by the time they start filming the mid-season-replacement
episodes ;-( She wasn't that skinnny in Flashdance was she? (Yeah I know
Flashdance was three people but still)

Just a thought - Didn't we first see Carly when Justin and Adrienne went
on vacation to some tropic island?  (Maybe she went to the medical school
in that new TV show Going to Extremes (named after the girl who played
