The World Stopped Turning Years Ago

As The World Turns has been given the ax on CBS. I don't know how I feel about this because I stopped watching that show years ago. Which is probably the reason the show has been cancelled. We all stopped watching. Not because we hated the show. I swear it was The Stenbeck story and that Barbara woman.

 The whole Barbara obssesion thing I never got and after reincarnating James over and over again. At one point Barbara was just as evil as James for some reason.
Right?
Anyway...That is not a soap opera, it is a carnival. Once a soap brings a character back more than three times from the dead. Something just ain't write in the creative department. James was evil and I never watched when he was on!

 Then the Hughes Family aged and died, but then the odd ball children grew! Like weeds! Isn't Parker, who was born in 2001, now 20. I never attached to him. The children are more like disposable paper plates than children.

So, SO- raising the kids is another big mistake soaps make. We can't identify with a character who skipped the years 6-16. That is not an earthly act. It is weird and creates a disassociative disorder with the viewers. One reason we liked Cassie was because Cassie was always Cassie.
  An hour of watching Craig is an hour of your life waisted. How did he become the lead? How many Craig's have there been. Why not just put a mask with the name Craig on and call it a beloved character? Who has affection for Craig? Wasn't that lost when the second Craig left?
 I admire the gay breakthrough and the actors abilities, but the show passed its highs many years ago.
 Oakdale needs to be replaced with the Real Housewives of Plano. Where children age one year at a time. Time has passed Oakdale up and daytime reality programming is coming.

Young people have their Blackberry to spend hours on now.
Watching a soap is an investment of your time, and there are many more things competing for our time than there was 10 years ago.
