Best Storyline (and remember it is about the actual story told and not just who your favorite pairing is):
Reid Oliver blowing into town and making connections/frenemies with so many citizens of Oakdale
Worst Storyline: Chrolli baby storyline-ugh, there are no words to describe how boring it is.
Best Actor: Eric Sheffer Stevens, (Reid Oliver) ATWT, Van Hansis (Luke Snyder) ATWT, Igor Dolgatschew (Deniz) AWZ,
Best Actress: Actresses playing Roxy (OLTL) , Katie (ATWT)
Actor or Actress Most In Need Of Acting Lessons: Jasmin Lord, VL; Actress playing Gigi on OLTL
Best Supporting Character (including f*g hags): Katie (ATWT-scenes with Reid were amazing), Roxy (OLTL-awesome support of Kish), Miriam (VL-always in Chrolli's corner), Florian (AWZ-adorable trying to care about Deniz and Roman in their split); Richard (ATWT- HIlarious Noah gopher)
Worst Supporting Character (including f*g hags): Ingo (AWZ-could he be more of an asshole towards Roman when Roman needed a friend...not funny at all), Rebecca (VL-why is Rebecca? Honestly?)
Best Friendship: Katie and Reid (ATWT), Kyle and Roxy (OLTL), Miriam and Chrolli (VL)
Worst Friendship:Rebecca and Chrolli (VL-again, why??)
Biggest Missed Opportunity: VL-Rob storyline could've been so much more; ATWT-a REAL adult triangle between Reid/Luke/Noah, not silly high school c*ckblockng antics (I want to WAIT...) and dialogue (You stole my BOYFRIEND!); AWZ-delving more into Marc/Roman/Deniz-why Roman did what he did, the aftermath; instead Marc merely leaves and Roman lets him go...why did he throw away his relationship then??
Best Chemistry: Reid and Luke, ATWT; Marc and Roman, AWZ; Roman and Deniz, AWZ
Biggest WTF? Moment: Reid and Thomas the Tank (ATWT)-way to treat a legacy character of Luke by leaving him broken and devastated without his new love
Biggest Waste Of Time (character or storyline):Rebecca (VL) in Rob/Olli/Christian story-she macks on Christian, Chrolli almost breaks up because of it, she saves their butts from Rob at the end. Really?
Best Song Moment: Collage of special Chrolli moments as they're driving away from their wedding reception (VL)
Worst Song Use: Lucky by Jason Mraz when Rebecca is watching Christian teach the little girl how to ride a horse (VL). Guh.
Best Storyline Twist: Reid Oliver coming out on ATWT
Worst Storyline Twist: Chris Hughes silly heart condition on ATWT
Best New Character: Reid Oliver ATWT; Marc AWZ; Florian AWZ
Worst New Character: Patrick (AWZ) sleazy *ssh*le sleeping around without a lid...blech...
Best Line/Dialogue: "You just get on and ride, right?" Reid to Luke before he rides the mechanical bull in Dallas. ATWT *thud* Did he actually say that on daytime TV...; Reid's coming out to Henry, Reid's coming out to Luke. Noah (watching Luke make out with Reid) to Richard: "That's Dr. Oliver???" Richard: "I told you he was hot..."
Worst Line/Dialogue: Anything that comes out of Mitch Lawrence's mouth (OLTL)
Most Shocking Moment: anything to do with trains...hello Emmerdale and ATWT.
Least Shocking Moment: Oliver Fish realizing he is Sierra's father (OLTL) dragged out way too long; Rob's a nefarious drug dealer just using Olli (VL-oh my goodness you don't say??); Olli and Christian getting the negative HIV results on VL-why bother with a 2 episode story arc about it if you're not going to take it seriously?
Favorite Kiss: any with Luke and Reid-smoking chemistry, but esp. the one when distraught Luke comes to Reid over Noah's surgery and they end up...making out...
Most Enjoyable Show: ATWT for really having the b*lls to intro a strong, snarky, funny, successful and unapologetically gay character like Reid Oliver to daytime TV and risking the wrath of Luke and Noah fans.
Most Disappointing Show:
ATWT for not realizing how killing off a strong gay character like Reid and leaving Luke in a devastated, lonely state at the end of the show, without his new or old love, would come off to fans. The ending left no one happy.
OLTL for being wusses and making Kyle and Fish the scapegoat for declining ratings. While Kish got their happy little family, the way Scott and Brett were treated left a bitter taste in my mouth...
What do you hope for in 2011 for your favorite pairs (no spoilers):
VL: something, anything to shake up the couple and provide real drama for them, but I am at this point too bored to care
AWZ: more indepth understanding of Roman's insecurities that led him to stray; character development for Roman, anything more with DeRo. But the show is really going down the tubes with their storylines ATM.
OLTL and all other American soaps: to have the guts to tell a same-sex couple story with the same respect and consideration as heterosexual couples...but unforch I don't see this happening anytime soon...the soap format seems too outdated and recycled for many younger viewers to care much.
HollyOaks: Ste gets right the hell away from Brendan and escapes the physical and emotional abuse. There is riveting drama, but there is no love. Pretty damn scary when one sees insane jealousy, threatening, and exerting power and control over another as "love". Want Ste to find someone else who is not abusive and loves him, but have to go through Brendan's crazy. the drama!
