Yep on both accounts. I've started watching GH more regularly in the past few months and it's a lot more entertaining then this convoluted and contrived hot mess....

That stuff about Sharon reminds me of something! Instead of the lookalike mania, the show had an intriguing direction to go in with a character like Sharon! Her episodes of kleptomania and hookups could have led to a character based story exploring her past and possible abuse by her father! No matter what one thinks of Sharon Newman, Sharon Case could have pulled it off! She was never more interesting than when she was carrying on with Billy etc.! Eventually, Nikki could have reached out to her as a survivor of that kind of abuse! Ah what do I know? Maybe this plastic surgery horse shit is what people enjoy! I agree that this show had class for so many years that no other soap could touch! Now it's just another cartoon!
Interesting. I've been watching Y&R for a long time yet never knew that Sharon was the victim of abuse. What an intriguing storyline it might have been if the writers had chosen to explore those issues more fully instead of going down what looks like the same Sharon/Nick/Phyllis love triangle route. The experience of delving into her past could have made her a stronger person and taken the storylines in a completely different direction. Soaps in general seem to recycle a lot of storylines, and isn't the time long overdue that TPTB started thinking outside the box. The ratings for soaps are dropping because people are tuning out over rehashed stories and sloppy writing.

I agree I also thought that the Sharon storyline was going to become a story of abuse by her father but then suddenly it was all dropped. But of course that's not going to happen because then MAB and her croonies would actually have to write a new storyline instead of the same crappy triangle they've been shoving down our throats for years now.

Well it's just a guess but since Jacks too stupid to even realize the woman he's sleeping with isn't even Emily, I highly doubt he can read a pregnancy test right at this point. Brains apparently aren't Jacks strong suit ;)

:rockon:

Agreed. Loved that storyline and Sharon Case was rocking it. Hopefully she submits something from that storyline for the Emmys because she definitely shined.

After all... tomorrow is another day!

This show is so horrible. I mean this whole episode has been bad while I've had it on in the background ignoring, but when Lauren starts ranting about all the reasons that Sheila's schemes didn't work in the past was because good triumphs over evil is when its suckage is so awful it makes me notice it and realize I need to change the channel.

more like evil triumphing over evil. Stephanie Forrester can kick Sheila's ass any day, and did.

Why was it necessary for Sheila's sister to get plastic surgery to look just like Lauren? If she wanted to exact revenge, she could've done it without completely changing her face. Or was she planning to kill Lauren AND take over her life? I'm not really following this...
