[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 437614, member: 19949"] I'm a regular viewer, and I think the strongest thing about BTG is the dialogue, although dialogue is definitely a matter of taste. In no other US soap do you see a character comparing another character to Rico Suave like what happened recently. Otherwise, I like that the newest additions to the cast (Greg Vaughan and Jordi Vilasuso), even though they're already well-known in the daytime genre, don't get a lot of screen time like it is common (and often annoying) in other soaps. I thought BTG was over the top at the beginning, but now it's flying under the radar. Unfortunately, nothing interesting happens these days, or even weeks I should say. They're not taking any risks with plots or twists. It's as if the fear of losing viewers is ruling the writing for the show. They constantly point out how much the main family has achieved, whether in politics, the music scene, the model business, the influencer business, or as a doctor, but you never actually see anyone accomplish anything remarkable. It's all tell, but never shows, which is getting more and more annoying. [/QUOTE]
