Candice MackGUEST
But I really wish Bill was the one to really do it.
Candice MackGUEST
Because this is one of those things in Soaps where we know that Bill and Danny, they're like the Erica Kane and Adam Chandler of it all, where we know that they're supposed to be together.
Candice MackGUEST
We've seen in the last couple of weeks their closeness.
Candice MackGUEST
I just kind of wish that the show would have done a swerve and be like, Bill's the one who's putting two and two together and he nails Hayley.

Candice MackGUEST
We are coming back this weekend.
Candice MackGUEST
We was off for three weeks.
Candice MackGUEST
You can catch me on JLJ Media and G Soaps.
Candice MackGUEST
Encore presentations of Forever Today and currently on this hot audio series where I play the innocent doctor on Haven's Falls.
Bryan RileyHOST
how many crazy storylines does that show have? Boy, what a great
Kelly JordanHOST
paycheck, though, to be on a soap opera.
Kelly JordanHOST
Do people still watch soap operas? I don't know, dude.
Kelly JordanHOST
I really don't know.
Kelly JordanHOST
I'm guessing old ladies probably do because it reminds them of the years gone by.
Siobhan WykesHOST
And she's beautiful inside and out, which counts.
Siobhan WykesHOST
Going back to Soaps, having been this most fabulous, loved character in Brookside, you went to Corrie, where you played, not to put too fine a point on it.
Siobhan WykesHOST
It was only a few episodes, but they were iconic.
Sam KaneGUEST
Oh, thank you.
Dom BettinelliHOST
And we can get into some of those as we go, because, yeah, there was some fun, some fun stuff of that.
Dom BettinelliHOST
And there was much less of like in the soap opera episode.
Dom BettinelliHOST
The crew wasn't themselves puppets.
Dom BettinelliHOST
They had doppelgangers instead.

Dom BettinelliHOST
So that is once on a time.
Dom BettinelliHOST
Then let's get to our listener feedback.
Dom BettinelliHOST
This feedback all comes from our discussion on the Like Chronotons Through the Hourglass, the soap opera episode.
Dom BettinelliHOST
John Gilchrist writes on Spotify, this episode felt more like All My Circuits from Futurama.
BradHOST
That would be a good guess.
BradHOST
And he was on Soaps, but he was not in this top 100, or at least he wasn't one of my picks.
BradHOST
I mean, it's a much smaller name than Rick Springfield because this guy had kind of one big hit, but then he was in Soaps for like, you know, two decades there.
BradHOST
Yeah.
GiffHOST
Jack Wagner, maybe? Jack
JayHOST
Yes.
JayHOST
If they don't do a soap opera, if they don't do...
JayHOST
These things are supposed to be character drive in the episodes.
JayHOST
And when we get into the next couple of episodes, we are talking about episodes here that are that they're supposed to be developing the character, but they just don't bother.

JayHOST
I love this episode.
JayHOST
It's not at all stupid.
JayHOST
And I think that the one thing Star Trek's been missing is the soap opera episode.
JayHOST
The only thing good about this episode was that it was really short.
speaker_2HOST
It was done so they could do Dude, Where's My Car or The Hangover.
speaker_2HOST
It was not done... for actual any sense and it's again another example of these creators just doing whatever the hell they want and to hell with Star Trek the last one I'm going to talk about though before I get to the real worst moment and the stupidest moment in this season so far I might end up coming back to this topic is the soap opera episode.
speaker_2HOST
Now, I have said very clearly that the last bit of this episode I actually really liked.
speaker_2HOST
Anson Mount is a hell of an actor.
speaker_2HOST
How they got to that point was stupid.
speaker_2HOST
It was just about bringing Trillane back and they obviously then have to try to make it funny and do their comedy bits which they're not very good at.
speaker_2HOST
And they did this whole soap opera thing because, again, every episode has got to have some sort of genre bending thing to it.
speaker_2HOST
That week, it was a soap opera.
Vinny SudsHOST
But here's the deal.
Vinny SudsHOST
I did go ahead and put out a – Put out a reply, okay? VHFan10130 posted something and said, Soaps absolutely need good villains.
Vinny SudsHOST
I 100% agree about that.
Vinny SudsHOST
Helena, Jerry Jacks, Faison, Ryan, the Zagara family, Nell, more recently said, well, are all good to great villains.

Vinny SudsHOST
That's the character.
Vinny SudsHOST
You know, that's
Angela Ryan DuncanHOST
part of Soaps as well, is hating characters.
Vinny SudsHOST
Exactly.
Candice MackHOST
She will be celebrating 50 years next year on General Hospital, even though she was on and off.
Candice MackHOST
But y'all get the gist of it, okay? She's one half of the reason why General Hospital is on the map for the most watched Nope event ever.
Candice MackHOST
Ladies and gentlemen, this year's recipient, the one, the only, Jeannie Francis.
Candice MackHOST
Jeannie, come on out.

Candice MackHOST
Like everybody doesn't do the whole.
Candice MackHOST
OK, once you come through the door, we're not related.
Amanda RussHOST
Nope.
Amanda RussHOST
You're right.
Jeff BuchGUEST
Right.
William CockrellHOST
Because all college football is, is a soap opera that you get to watch from so many different angles.
William CockrellHOST
And just like my mom does when she watches "The Bold and the Beautiful," she fast-forwards through the storyline she doesn't care about.
William CockrellHOST
You ain't, you ain't fast-forwarding through this one.
