So I was reading a website that has a run down of all the soaps, looking for anything on my Spixie. The site is mostly spoilers and rumors. Well I looked over the ones for Guiding Light because it had the word cancellation next to it. This is the first set of spoilers I've read in a month and shook my head when I did. Olivia and Natalia are going to be Lesbians? Seriously?! Can you feel the fear coming from Ellen Wheeler?
First the Coop/Beth storyline bombed and John got fired to make room for Grant then Caitlin got forced into the "propping Coopth, Daisy/Grady" role and now Olivia and Natalia are going to be lovers? Now I have no problem with lesbian love. In fact it could be interesting, but damn what did Frank D do to deserve losing another potential love interest? It's really sad that the show has been reduced to stunts in the hope of getting viewers.
The whole thing really doesn't give much hope to the show surviving. In fact the website even said that it's almost for sure that this year will be the last and I can't say I'm surprised. I haven't watched in months. Even time I hear about what's going on I just shake my head and sigh. The characters are being dumbed down for ridiculous stories. Like for example: Dinah didn't know Shayne was Shayne, even though she's known him practically his whole life...and they have NEVER liked each other? Coop kissing Beth, who doesn't want Alan to know about her affair, on the Spaulding front porch? So on and so forth.
So I ask again...can you smell the stink of desperation coming from the direction of Guiding Light?
