What better way to start off the thread then to post a video of the Shorty cast doing the Harlem Shake ... After a few watches I saw Roimata (who is the MVP of the video), Nicole, Vinnie, TK and Boyd. Anyone see someone I missed? Edited by Bright Eyes, Feb 26 2013, 07:41 PM.

Matt, please tell me you are still watching! Whose your favourite character? Mine the fabulous Brooke. I could watch her all day. However, I really need Josh to die and Sarah's Mary Sue ass to be destroyed. I never thought I'd be so invested in a politics story of any kind, but Shorty makes it work tremendously. |

I started to watch one episode quite awhile ago and don't remember why I didn't finish it. Is it worth adding to my soap lineup? I'm watching HollyOaks, EastEnders and the improved Days. I'm limited to using my phone's 4G device to get online and to watch my Brit soaps. I'm going to be upgrading my internet plan because I'm burning through my allotted online access too quickly. I'll have more time for one or two other shows and I've been thinking Corrie and Emmerdale.

I just saw where auto correct turned Corrie into Corridor. Thanks Mikey. |

TK may be a bit of a dick sometimes, but man can he work a pair of jeans. |

And so the fabulous Lana Jacobs and the wonderfully mesmerizing Brooke Williams exit the show. I'll miss her so much. :( |

"You don't have what it takes to be CEO. You could barely run a corner dairy and if somebody asks that's exactly what I'll tell them." Rachel laying into Sarah today was the perfect way to start the weekend. Love that bitch. Edited by Bright Eyes, Mar 8 2013, 11:34 AM.

Put me down as a Chris Warner fan. Loved him with Alison but definitely best with rachel. Love TK but liked him better with Sarah. Sorry they killed off Luke. I liked him. |

TK can be dickish sometimes, but heaven help me if he doesn't have an amazing body. But Sarah? Hate her. I really want someone to come on the show and ruin her life. Edited by Bright Eyes, Mar 9 2013, 09:02 AM.

I need to get back into watching ... I always start off so well with watching other soaps (EastEnders, Neighbours, HollyOaks and Shortland Street) and then end up so far behind LOL |

You're such a failure! I haven't watched a character as stupid as Kylie in a long time. How the hell was she able to become a nurse? |

I'm going to need Brooke and Vasa to hang out a hell of a lot more. And I'm so excited that Brooke is now going to try to seduce Boyd for his money. She was already the best character on the show and now this just amplifies her perfection. Thank God we won't have to deal with a naive Bella trying to become a painter. I love the ditz, but it's good to see she's not that stupid. And I love hearing about the old Nicole in this episode. I wonder if Brooke's pursuit of Boyd will somehow/eventually make her fall back to her party girl ways. I sure hope so! |

Well I finally saw a few episodes and while it was a little tough sorting out all of the characters, it seems like a keeper.

It shouldn't be too tough since Shorty has the smallest cast of all the soaps. LoL Did you just watch the latest episodes? Have any early favourites? You can see mine in my signature. |

Yeah I know who the characters are now between watching the past week of episodes and a little research. Brooke didn't show up until the last episode I watched but she hooked me right away. I like Nicole too. Boyd has been fun with his resentment of Chris and the champagne trick he pulled on the snooty waiter. I need to see more of the others before they make my favorites list. |

I go on and off on Boyd. He's such a dick to my Brook, like in today's episode, but he can also be really fun like he is with Nicole. And I hope you learn to love Vasa once you see more of her. She's the type of character that's always making mistakes and then makes bigger mistakes trying to fix them. She's fabulous. But happy to see you're catching on to Brooke quick. She is my everything right now. And Rachel is the queen of Shortland Street and probably the most iconic character ever on the show. If you should read anyone's wiki page, it's hers. |

Sarah, that hypocritical self righteous bitch, finally got some comeuppance today and it was amazing to watch. And you could tell Rachel felt such a sense of satisfaction firing her ass. Shortland Street just delivers, delivers, delivers. |
