And no question the current U.S. political climate is pulling viewers away as @Snaporaz pointed out, but there were claims by Philly fans that the bad ratings were a result of the hateful evil horrible Sally putting the kibosh on Philly There have been claims by all kinds of stans when the ratings are up or down so I don't take what a few stans say as anything more than wishful thinking. No couple or character makes or breaks the show.. the shit writing does tho.. and this show keeps getting worse. 10 hours ago, valleycliffe said: the most overused one in my book is the "My poor Sharon!!!" threads I think that board and those kinds of threads is part of the reason I despise that creature so much. 9 hours ago, Anna Yolei said: It's not new characters or younger ones that have pissed me off, but the shitty ass writing and introductions or some of them.

Absolutely this. Soaps by their nature are ensemble pieces. No one should ever eat up the show the way Victor did during the MAB years or the way the countless Friends of Jill did to various degrees. 9 Link to comment

crosby777 June 9, 2017 Share June 9, 2017 I was at another board and found this regarding Sharon and Victor's sex. LOL I just went to flare.com and typed EB's name in the search bar and there was the article and what Logan posted was real. Here is a complete copy and paste below... Then we move on to his least favourite relationship of Victor’s—and mine too: his brief marriage to Sharon, which angered many of the show’s fans. “That storyline could have been totally different,” says Braeden. “I suggested an entirely different storyline.” Then, without any prompting, he continues: “Sharon is obviously very attractive, and Victor succumbs to it one night. That’s a taboo unlike any other; having sex with your son’s wife. That only happens once, and Victor is so ashamed of it that he leaves the country. Next, you see the countryside in Santorini and you hear Gregorian chants and nothing else. Imagine the breeze. [Editor’s note: Imagine the breeze!!!!!!!] You hear these chants in a monastery—it’s a working monastery—and you see these hooded figures and you see Victor and he’s in a hood and he’s chanting. The next morning, Victor wakes up in his room at the monastery with sweat on his brow. He is so ashamed of having given into that momentary whim of having sex with Sharon. Paul [Williams, Genoa City investigator-turned-chief of police] flies to Greece and is looking for him, but he loses his trail. They eventually find Victor among the homeless in Los Angeles. He is despondent and distant but slowly Nick [Victor’s son, Sharon’s on-again, off-again husband] forgives him.” This is quite possibly the best response I have ever received during an interview. But alas, the reverie is soon broken. “What they did with that storyline was bullshit,” concludes Braeden, reverting back to no-BS abruptness. “They really fucked it up.” 8 Link to comment

Joimiaroxeu June 9, 2017 Share June 9, 2017 (edited) Quote Victor succumbs to it one night. Apparently EB still doesn't get why this scenario--either the one that happened or the one he says should've happened--was offensive to many. It still makes a weapon out of Sharon's lady parts and Victor still would've looked like the victim. Ugh. Sharon had always regarded Victor as a fatherly figure and I don't think the notion of sleeping with him would've ever occurred to her except via some EP/writer's warped imagination. And whatever, Sharon wasn't married to Nick at the time. AFAIC, the "taboo" wasn't that she was Victor's daughter-in-law, it was that she was the mother of his grandchildren. Geez, B&B already has the market cornered on that ickiness. Edited June 9, 2017 by Joimiaroxeu 13 Link to comment
Toomuchsoap June 9, 2017 Share June 9, 2017 I'm still trying to wrap my head around that entire shambles. My god. The ego of that man is breathtaking. Everything is always about him. And a monastery FFS! The thing is, though, that most of us knows he tried to pitch a Shictor union with Bill Bell back in the late '90s early 2000s and it was written about and circulated in soap rags and in the message boards that existed at the time. So there are a large number of people that don't buy this crap he's trying to fob off on the gullible about it being totally MAB's brainchild. Now, I might be able to believe that when it was apparent that Shictor was dead to the viewers and the writers had to ditch it before it unspooled any further, that he might have concocted some sort of similar loonytoons variant of this and the only thing that did emerge out of it was Victor on one of his perennial walkabouts ending up at the port of Los Angeles which we did see, complete with nun in street clothing. But 'lordy', he had to make this all about his anguish, his salvation. But boy, it's gonna get pretty crowded Up There on the right hand of God. 11 Link to comment

God, that's the most HILARIOUS fanfiction I've ever seen penned for this fandom, ever! ???? If EB believes this was a better story than what we got, he needs lithium even more than Sharon does. The best Shictor story is the one that is never written, period. Least of all one that leads to everyone kissing Victor' s old, wrinkly ass, yet AGAIN. 10 Link to comment
