I know all the soaps can't be perfect all the time and tonights episode bored me but I couldn't turn it over because I had company:D. However this John Stape storyline is pointless, serves no purpose and I really couldn't care about it.

I don't see why this is in need of a thread?

Surely that would mean half the members would be making threads "Eastenders was depressing tonight" every night

Corrie is just dull all together really, they need to just hurry up with this Tram Storyline so we can all forget about it like we usually do and get on with watching ITV without having a bunch of old bastards on the screen pouring their hearts out about an old show.

Pardon me for daring to post my thoughts:p, you didn't have to click on the thread. You make your feelings on Eastenders clear which I politely disagree with LOL.

I think the John Stape storyline is either a love or hate one

Either people love it for its OTT wackynes

or people hate it because it's dull :p

Well it's fine posting your thoughts, but specifically making a thread for it, is just to try and cause an argument, especially when theres an episode discussion thread available to use.
And I don't actually make my thoughts about EE clear, generally I keep them to myself cause lord knows when you speak out, you get abuse from Idiots.

Fair enough but I certainly didn't have an intention to start an argument.. that would be petty, we've had lots of fun disagreements about EE and Corrie LOL though:laugh:

Every storyline involving John has been ridiculous, his whole character is ridiculous tbh

Although that's part of the reason I love it :laugh:

What other character can sleep with a student, kidnap them, steal someones identity hide a dead body and still be a perfectly accepted member of society xD It's hilarious xD

Exactly :laugh:

I dont really think it's the sort of story that you should take really serious, you should just accept it for what it is and have a laugh at it.

I'll be watching regularly again when Tracy is back:D.

Forgot about mentioning Graeme and David, glad they're mates again and whiney Tina won't like that:rolleyes:.

Aye, plus I think only Corrie could get away with the storyline, I mean the burial episode was hilarious with John and Charlotte racing across the street past Rita witha dead body in the bin

Love Aunteh Pam's put downs to Kevin:D.

lmao yes! :joker:

I love Auntie Pam, but I bet he wont stick around

btw, the post tram crash spoilers look amazing, there's two funerals, and one of them ill have an almighty fight, plus someone is to blame for the Joinery explosion

I have a theory.. Have they just brought Jim back to kill him off in the crash as he is a legendary character?, this would cause Liz to have a breakdown and leave.

Isn't he supposed to have a rivarly with Owen though?. I hope Jim wins Elizabeth back and they leave together;).

I used to be able to watch it all the time but it's just too boring now really to watch outside of big events. Corrie's terrible at the day to day episodes and it runs out of steam far too much.

Scarlett.
25-11-2010, 11:24 PM
I'm still not sure why Jim is back lol, I hope he doesn't die in the tram crash

btw, Dezzy, when did you last watch full time? IMO it's improved loads in the day to day since earlier this year (as I stopped watching for a while)

bbfan1991
25-11-2010, 11:27 PM
I think Owen will cause the joinery explosion:p.

Scarlett.
25-11-2010, 11:30 PM
I thought that too, with the dodgy building work (remember the leak?)

but it could also be Ceiran

Stu
25-11-2010, 11:31 PM
To be fair Smithy you defended one of elliebrew's threads the other night that was essentially a blurry picture of what could have been any explosion from any TV show ever.

You are clearly just getting antsy because this one is negative to 'Corrie.

The thread is fine. Who cares. I mean really.

Hmm a good one because he could easily go back to the pub with Leanne and Nick ends up back at the factory;).

Maybe it could be Carla:shocked:.

Nah, I can't see Carla being connected with it lol, maybe Nick gets the blame?

For Carla I was thinking it could be connected to the Leanne/Nick storyline.. she's covered up Kasia's death at the factory, but the fire could be an accident like if she was drunk;).

Scarlett.
25-11-2010, 11:43 PM
Maybe, but that'd probably spell the end of the character, she'd be responsable for all the deaths

I didn't think it was that bad. I love the John/Charlotte storyline, I'm gutted Charlotte's leaving soon, I think she's such a funny character. Can't wait to see the back of Molly though, she's such a selfish woman and she's been able to get away with it for too long. Hope Sally's able to give her a slap before she pops her clogs.

I appreciate that some people don't like John the character or indeed the story. I think if you can see it for what it, you could find it entertaining.

The soaps are on too much and I don't think this helps the cause. We like our soaps to tell it like it is and throw some comedy element in it along the way. All the major soaps are guilty of throwing out OTT story-lines, some work a treat and others fail.

I wasn't a fan of John in a year or so ago and as I didn't take him seriously, I started to enjoy the character and plot-lines much more. Now I am really enjoying this story, because I'm not taking it too seriously.

This serial killer story they have given him is not too far away from the one Eastenders gave Lucas, burying and digging up a body in the front of all the square to see, they just made Lucas more darker with Stape more for the comedy element,

I Believe John Stape is one of those OTT characters, just like Alfie Moon is in Eastenders. Or Carmel McQueen in Hollyoaks. IMO if you can see these for what they are you can enjoy them more.
