    while watching the show today, especially in the safe house, all the actors seemed like their acting was really cheezy.  Do you think the writing has gotten so bad that they are unable to carry it off anymore or is it just me. 

    When Bo and Hope were trying to evade Harmon, it looked like a high school production.

    Speaking of Harmon, they know he’s rotten yet they put the coin in a safe that he knows the combination to?  Duh!  Maybe since the writers know they’re out the door they’re not even trying any more.

    Hey, who wants to go to Burbank and try and pull this show out of the toilet?  I know we could do a better job.

    Tomsinson and Whitesell are doing the writin now; however, unfortunately, we won’t see the product of their attempt at recovery until August.

     I thought I was just being a little jaded today. I have to agree, the acting was awful. If I weren’t a long time viewer and had just turned the show on, I would have been laughing my butt off over the very stilted delivery. None of them made me think the situation was even a little believable. 

    Bo and Hope were a joke. I think my kids could have been more stealthy. Why would Bo have the ringer on if he didn’t want anyone to know he was there? Why would he just lay the phone down instead of leaving it in his pocket? Why would Shane call? The writing was simply horrible!

    from the actual story itself, to the acting, the ridiculous coin, Alamania, etc., etc., etc.  The actors look drained, and I have never been more disappointed in a return than I have with Shane Donovan’s.  He’s supposed to be the lead ISA man, and everyone from Bo to Hope to Roman to John to Rafe and even Billie is either setting him straight or telling him what the next step should be.  It’s laughable.  I was really looking forward to Shane’s return, but it has been a huge disappointment for me.   Of late I find myself wishing for the break for the summer Olympics, because then we’ll start to see the new writers’ work.  Then, if things don’t improve, I don’t think even the soap gods can save this show, because everywhere I look, on every message board, all I read are the same complaints by disheartened fans.  So, I’m just keeping my fingers crossed and continuing to chug along until then.
