Well the whole Carly story has changed so many times that I have
lost track. I think it is just another example how inconsistent the
whole thing is. Remember, when Carly first came on, supposedly she
and Lizard had their affair only a few years before, NOT 8 or 9 years.
This is proven by the fact that in one of her flash backs she and 
Lizard are having a fight after she finds out who he actually is. This
fight is in some bar in Europe. She tries to get away from Lizard, and
a man protects her, this man is Bo. Now, when Bo remembers the whole
thing too, after he finds out that Carly was using he to get Frankie,
he says that the whole thing happened while he and Hope and Shawn-D
were sailing around. This was not 8 years ago. So this whole junk about
the kid is just a re-write of the original storyline.

Also, back then Carly went by the name of Carly or another name, but not
Katarina, and thus she lied about who she was to Lizard just as much as he
lied to her.  So if she did not go by Katarine how come Viv always refers to
her by that name. Just another re-write of history to make Carly a victim.
For the way the storyline first was writen she was just as dishonest as Larry.

So I think Beth that it is just another case of how TPTB are not at all
consistent in regards to the whole mess. And much of this blame belongs
to the writers, but since they are always changing the real blame for
this unprofessionalism is (in my opinion) on account of Corday and Chappell.
Corday should keep track of the stories, and since he is the producer he
should make sure things relate to past history. And Chappell too should pay
more attention, and speak out if this do not jive with her character's
past. The acter has a responsibility to play his/her part, and keep it
consistent.

But my unhumble opinion is that TPTB are doing everything possible to
make us like and feel sorry for Carly, and to do this they constantly
are changing things. Which frustrates the hell out of me. From not tolerating
the character in the beginning I truly say I detest her now. And have little
good to say for the actress either.

Hah haha....thanks Peach for the year's rating. Notice how during this
past season when Carly was the primary focus of the show that they show's
rating sunk into the sewers. I am glad that Crystal has done so much for
the show. Jeez, remember what J&J's wedding did for the show, who they
wrecked it and brought the show up for the week of their wedding to 
either 2nd or 3rd place.
