[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 56574, member: 27"] It used to be 'appointment viewing' for me from 2012 until about a month after Ron Carlivati was fired. Now I can live just fine with reading online synopses and watching one episode (Thursdays) per week. I could watch day-old episodes onDemand anytime I want, but frankly I'm not that into it. It's not that Ron's work was spectacular or anything; it's just the current writers seem to be "striving to be mediocre". It's not great; it's not terrible. It's just...meh. So I watch if I'm working from home, but I don't DVR it or otherwise try to catch up on what I miss. This is quite the situation in my life, since I have always had at least one 'pet' soap that I would watch faithfully (some would say obsessively) since roughly 1980 (at the tender age of ten years old): [I]Guiding Light [/I](1980 to roughly 1985); [I]As the World Turns[/I] (1984-6); [I]Another World[/I] (1986-1999); ATWT again (1999 to 2008); [I]One Life to Live[/I] (2008-2012); then GH (after OLTL was cancelled). For the first time in practically ever, I don't have a daily soap habit. [/QUOTE]
