Y&R - Boywhat?
So jase got this comment on one of his entries:
Please spread the word on the Y&R botcott that is happening on the week of August 20th.
Here are the official details:
GET THE WORD OUT- THERE WILL BE A WEEK-LONG BOYCOTT OF "THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS BEGINNING AUGUST 20TH
TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO WATCHES Y&R TO WATCH General Hospital that week.
It's not enough that we not watch YR that week. We, must endorse another soap in order to overtake YR that week in the ratings. GH is the easiest, non-CBS soap to accomplish this task because it's the highest rated show on ABC.
It's only one week that could send a powerful message to LML and TPTB at CBS Daytime.
I'm sorry, but jigga what? I haven't watched Y&R in months, true, but have you seen GH? I appreciate the sentiment, for realz yo but again, have you SEEN GH? It's like trading in botulism for leprosy, it's all bad.
I don't mean to be an ass, I'm all for knocking some sense into those people but really, watching GH is not gonna help anybody but GH. Caterwauling banshee Carly, whorey Liz (you're more worried over that punkass bitch Jason than your own husband? Ugh, shut up.) and Sonny and that lady dropped in from some sad second-rate romcom (even though the actress is well-talented, the whole story is trite and treated indifferently, much like Sonny! Perfection!)? No, thanks, mofo.
While I appreciate the sentiment and goal I can't support the boycott. I think simply not watching the show would help things a bit more.

Wait . . . who is this "Darn" blogger? I have vague memories . . . I thought he was a fairy tale my parents made up when I was very small. :)
Ratings come from Neilson homes.
