I am going to miss Survivor again due to its pre-empting by the NCAA and watch it online tomorrow. I wish they would hurry up and get that over with so that we can get back to more serious business.

By the way, did they happen to move this week's episode to last night to avoid the pre-empting? If so, I missed it anyway.

What? No midpoint recap episode? I was looking forward to the three minutes of new material hidden amongst all of the already aired footage.

How will I possibly recall all that went on with two weeks between show airings? I want to see Fairplay burn the show, Yau blindsided, Cirie calling the shots, the shower threesome, and Penner's exit again.

I still use a vcr. I had CBS taping until 11;45, thinking there was no way they would be an entire hour behind. I lost the last 15 minutes of Dexter.

Do you need a recap?? Do you need to know what the little boy described for the police artist ?;-)

I use a VCR too -- during football season I usually allow an extra hour for my Sunday night shows. But right now there's no Desperate Housewives, so I don't have to tape Cold Case, which was a rerun anyhow.

Here's the recap of the last 15 mins or so from TWoP:

What happened to the little boy (Oscar) is on page 12.

My soap, Guiding Light, hasn't been pre-empted at all this week.

It was preempted here Monday or Tuesday. It normally airs at 10AM, and they did a Dr. Phil rerun instead! Dr. Phil is normally on at 3PM, and they had basketball at that time.

Do you think that Olivia is really going to die? I don't. I think that they are going to kill off another character to give her the heart.

I am not loving the Dinah impersonating Phillip storyline, nor do I want to see Lizzy and Bill broken up by that condom-poking wench Ava. (I couldn't believe they showed that on TV.)

Survivor had a new episode last Wednesday night - the 19th and will be on next Thursday with a new one.

As for March Madness - this is when it's great to have Canadian stations to watch stuff on - we don't miss a thing and in some cases get shows a day early.

Oh, sorry -- I don't watch it! We usually have Channel 2 (CBS) on in the waiting room in the morning because the patients like Price is Right, so I'm aware of Guiding Light being on. But I'm not paying any attention to it (after all, I'm working!

Now, All My Children at 1PM on ABC -- that, I do watch! Awful as it is anymore

But I can catch it on Soapnet at 8PM if I'm too busy or someone's watching basketball at 1! (Most of the patients are seen in the morning -- afternoons are much slower & taken up w/ paperwork, scheduling, etc....)

I used to watch all of the ABC soaps, but gave them up slowly as things bugged me. I think that I stopped watching AMC because of something having to do with Maria's baby. I stopped watching GH because of all of the mob stuff. I stopped watching OLTL when Roger Howarth left.
