Since I will be in Miami for New Year’s, I thought I would post a classic clip of Miami Vice. I quickly changed my mind however, when I found this: the opening montage of the Days of Our Lives Miami storyline. (This is so much better!) I love how Days unapologetically “stole” from it’s fellow [...]

Does the Dimera Vendetta extend to Tom Brady?
Posted in Days of Our Lives, Genius Ideas, Shows that I would like to see on December 28, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Sometimes I get so pleased with myself when it comes to my ideas that I just have to share them with the world. (See here for more details.) Some background: I am a huge football fan although I mainly enjoy college football. I really just can’t hang with the NFL: the scandals, the overinflated salaries, [...]
Danger is her middle name
Posted in General Hospital, Genius Ideas, Unjustified Outrage on December 28, 2007 | 3 Comments »
The description on my DVR for yesterday’s General Hospital read “Danger seems to follow Lulu” which just infuriated me. First of all, “danger” doesn’t follow Lulu, Lulu courts danger and then proceeds to have an ongoing relationship with it. In fact, I bet that Lulu calls “danger” each morning before she leaves the house like [...]
The Evening Crown Competition
Posted in Crowned, Reality Shows on December 27, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Last week, The Realists got a reality check (I’ll be here all week!), the teams competed in swimwear, and a cabana boy delivers presents which may contain ”crown jewels” or cheap corsages. We begin in the Bedroom of Bunk Beds and Broken Dreams as the “nice clique” toasts The Realists who “fell” in the last round. Meanwhile, the “mean clique” [...]
So this is Christmas?
Posted in Days of Our Lives, Holiday Ideas on December 26, 2007 | 5 Comments »
I admit, I’m a little underwhelmed by this year’s DOOL‘s Christmas episode. I just felt it was a little disjointed. First of all, why is Marlena picking up dry cleaning on Christmas Eve (or is it Christmas Day)? I know it was an elaborate setup to introduce the winner of I Wanna Be a Soap Star [...]
A Festivus Miracle

I love the character of Kristen Blake. I loved her when she was good; I loved her when she was bad. Despite my love for her, she did something that I’m not sure I can forgive. Ladies and Gentleman: I give you Kristen and John bringing a kidnapped Baby Belle back to Roman and Marlena. [...]
Christmas with the Hortons
Posted in Days of Our Lives, Holiday Ideas, True Confessions on December 20, 2007 | 2 Comments »
As far back as I can remember I’ve always wanted an ornament with my name on it, just like Hope Williams Brady. Sure, I can go to the mall, pick up a glass ornament and pay some guy to engrave my name on it, but it’s not the same: the Horton ornaments are just so beautiful [...]
Crowned and Dangerous

Previously, the best show since Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team premiered. Mother/daughter pairs pulled up to the pinkest house ever and were tasked to come up with a creative team name and opening presentation for the judges. Team Erica Kane (Patty and Laura) went head to head with The Reiging A’s of Andrea and [...]
What did Eden put in Julia’s fruitcake?*
Posted in Nip/Tuck on December 19, 2007 | 1 Comment »
* Oh, how I wish I knew the answer to that one, since a good percentage of people came to this very blog today trying to find out the answer. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that it’s either a slow acting poison (paging 48 Hours Mystery) or an addictive [...]
White Diamonds Update
Posted in Genius Ideas, Holiday Ideas on December 19, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Everyday I come home and watch General Hospital (I Tivo it) and everyday I see the “White Diamonds” commercials. Tell me, old school GHers, do you see those commercials and think to yourself: “I’m really glad Helena Cassadine #1 got herself a fragrance line”?
