14g Soap Rant: AMC 40th Anniversary Review

OK OK I know, it's several weeks late, but things came up.
However, I still wanted to get a few things off my chest.
First of all (oh yeah I should mention all points made will be totally random Ha Ha)
I really would have appreciated the original theme music and graphics,
to open the show, but then again, there I go with common sense, silly me.
I thought there 40th opener was cheesy, with not a lot of thought put into it.
I also couldn't wrap my head around why Amanda Baker was featured
in the Babe and JR flashbacks and not Alexa Havins, the original Babe
Chandler. I know a lot of people had mad issues with this character, and I won't
go into those now, too many to list, however, in my humble opinion, love her or
hate her (she was an excellent actress I thought) she owned the role. Alexa
truly grasped the concept of who Arabella "Babe" Carey Chandler was suppose to be.
Also, I agree with Jordan and Ashlee of the Pine Valley Podcast that no one
offering condolences to Matao about his sister's passing was incredibly tacky!
At least Eva La Rue aka Maria Grey made up for that in spades. When she talked about Julia,
it ripped my heart out! Hooker made me cry dammit. Then again, I'm a huge fan of Eva,
she doesn't have to do much to impress me, she's so good. She's been on CSI Miami since
2006 I believe, and comes in to shoot for one AMC episode, and in my humble opinion,
blew so many people out of the water!
And shame!! on ABC for advertising the anniversary as a two day event.
Seriously, are you kidding me, this soap celebrates 40 years on the air and
you can't seem to muster up 2 days worth of old and new footage plus
interviews to honor that achievement(at least that's how I would have done it).
However shitty this soap currently is, it still should have been properly acknowledged.
I don't get why the AMC producers had to come up with such a LAME!!!! plot to in order to
introduce the anniversary into the storyline. It was completely unnecessary.
Why not just do a two day tribute, PERIOD! If introducing the anniversary show in this
way was such a sticking point with them, which clearly it was, then the ONLY way to do it
would have been to write it in a "Time Out of Time" fashion. It is a style of
writing rarely done, at least in soaps, as far as I know. "Days of Our Lives" did
it not that long ago, back in the late 90's, if I'm not mistaken, and it was brilliant.
(If anyone remembers the actual year please tell me. Just curious.)
You know, it's funny, I almost believe me when I say almost didn't watch the 40th
Anniversary show. Why, well, the show has been such an abysmal disappointment for
myself as well as many others over the past two years or so. To the point where I've
pretty much boycotted the show for the last 4 months only watching about 20 or so
episodes. So when commercials for the 40th Anniversary were running I honestly did
not give a shit! About two days before the Anniversary show aired, I was suddenly
struck hard by the fact that I didn't want to watch an Anniversary show for a soap that
I've watched since 1979, when I was 9 years old. That's fucked up!!!! In the end curiosity
got the better of me, and I tuned in.
Moving the show out of New York is so blasphemous, that they really better step it
up in LA, to make up for such a horrible decision. I know were in a recession, but I
just can't help but think that there had to be another way to cut back costs until the
economy improved other than moving it from the east coast.
That all, I'm spent.
Cheers

Sticks and Stones

If it were up to me as well as many other women regardless of age, the phrase Cougar (in reference to an older woman dating a younger man) would be completely abolished from the pop culture dictionary. This phrase is so ridonkulously immature and sexist, it's like nails on a chalkboard every time I hear it. I could be wrong, I've tried to do some research on this word, and I've been able to find out the country where it originated, (Canada)but no luck on determining if males coined this bit of verbal vomit or not. Until I can get a definitive answer, I believe dudes started this shit!!! I say this, because why would a woman demean herself this way? Think about it.
Also, ponder for a moment, about how many slang words there
are for a woman who is promiscuous:
Slut, Whore, Skank, Trollop, Ho, Jezebel, Trick, Hussy, Strumpet,
who knows, there could be more, but those are all the ones I've heard of.
Yet, how many words can any of you think of off hand, are there for men
who sleep around? In doing my research, I discovered words for older
gay men who date younger men, but I didn't uncover any for straight
guys. If there are words for guys who get around, (I'm sure they're only a few)
I'm positive none are as derogatory in nature, as they are for women.
If you want proof of much the issue is slanted, Exhibit A:
an article I peeped out in US magazine July 2009, is listed above.
As much as I am against this kind of age difference, at the end of
the day if both parties respect one another, and the relationship
is functional and non abusive, then that's
the most important thing, so I suppose it could be worse, what can
you do? However, it's still gross in my humble opinion.
However, keep in mind (for those of you old enough to remember),
Cher dated a guy in the late 80's, several years younger than her,
I think he worked in a bagel shop, or something to that effect.
And it was plastered all over the media from sea to shining sea.
Everybody and their Mama, and their Mama's Mama flipped out
over it, and had a crapload to say about it.
The same was true with Demi and Ashton when they began dating,
and that's a fifteen year age difference.
Now compare that relationship, if you will, to Jeff and Tania, which
by the way had I not bought US magazine to check out an article on
Michael Jackson, I probably wouldn't have heard hide nor hair about it !!!
Was that the lead story on Access Hollywood, was that on the cover
of People, OK magazine etc.? I don't think so!!!!!
Bottom line is that it's acceptable for men, and not women to date
someone who is many years younger.
Jeff 56, Tania 21!!!!!
A 35 YEAR AGE DIFFERENCE!!!!!
Now let that marinate for a moment!!!

Out of Control!!!!!!!!!!!
Whatever your views are on abortion rights, and for the record I'M PRO CHOICE. This is not the way to go about voicing your opinion!!! What horrifies me the most is that he was murdered in church on a Sunday whilst being an usher! Are you mutherfucking kidding me!!!!!!
These people claim to hold human life in such high regard, and yet so often this is what they resort to!!! Believe it or not I'm actually praying for anti-abortion individuals who take this stance. Because in my opinion they need JESUS the most!!! If you are not very religious, or an atheist, then at last pray, for lack of a better word, for these people to have more compassion for other human beings. This person had friends and a family, who now have to mourn the senseless death of their loved one while in the House of GOD!!! If you consider abortion murder, then why is shooting someone in a church any less obscene!!!
As DL Hughley would say "They need Jesus"!!!

What Next?
I apologize for bringing anyone down, or reminding
anyone of something they once went or are currently going
through.
I'm hoping, that in sharing my feelings on what depression has done to me,
that it will help others going through the same types of experiences,
to know they are not alone.
However, I don't have that many people to confide in, so
I write my thoughts here.
As each day passes my depression chips away a little more
of my soul, bit by bit.
It saddens me to say this, but it's very true.
In a couple of weeks I will be going to my very first
therapy session.
I'm glad to be finally getting some help, but at the same time
I truly wish that it did not have to get to this point.
It's not that I frown on therapy, it's just that for many years
I was able to rely on my friends for support. And that was more
enough, unfortunately that's just not the case anymore.
Me of all people, it still blows my mind, all these years later,
that I'm in this situation.
My social circle dwindled down to NOTHING!!!
Everyday for me is so immensely long, I have no job, no friends to
go out with, and very few people to talk with on the telephone.
The isolation is excruciating. However, I'm not a loner by nature.
I don't have issues with being alone that in of itself. Everyone has periods
when they need to be by themselves, whether their taking a breather
after a stressful situation, or simply just enjoying their own company.
However, human interaction is where I thrive.
And that's why this next bit is so ironic.
I recently joined Facebook, in an effort to reconnect with people
I care about, that I hadn't seen in a while.
Hoping, to reestablish certain relationships, and finally have some
social interaction again.
But looking at all the photos of people that I don't see on a regular
basis, happy and laughing, talking about all the places they've been to
and how much fun they're having is like a knife in my heart.
I had such high hopes when I joined, but now visiting Facebook is
breaking my heart.
Believe me, I don't begrudge them their happiness, I only want the
best for them, and always will. But why have I become the person on
the outside looking in?
It's wrong on so many levels.
It's such a struggle to get from one hour to the next, let alone one
day to the next. But I'm hangin' in there.
I deserve better!!! and I will fight like hell to get it.
I don't know what the future holds, but I do know I'd like to have my
friendships back.
As for now, I'll sit patiently in the waiting room reading a Soap Opera
Weekly, anxious to hear what God's plan is for me.
Cheers
