Default The Soap war

I used to be really into Corrie winning awards and wanting EE to be axed, but nowadays I cant see why people enjoy the war of the soaps, I never enjoyed Corrie as much.

Although I will defend Corrie if people claim it is crap (obviously)

And I have found myself watching the EE Omnibus each week

Now I know most of the characters

Shirley, Heather, Phil (everyone knows Phil), Peggy, Stacey, Bradley, Max, Tanya, Jack, Ronnie, Roxy, Billy, Honey, Ian, Lucy, Peter, Stephen, Minty, Garry, Jase, Dot, Christian, Sean, Jane

I am trying to get properly into it now as well

I think Corrie & EE are both rubbish. Although I could sit through the odd Corrie, I just cant bring myself to watch EE. It's the biggest load of rubbish.

Hollyoaks is the best.

Lol "biggest load of rubbish" that get's like 10/11 million viewers, loads more then HO. If anything I have gone off HO a bit, EE is much more better, and better actting as well.

As for Corrie, now I don't like it, but it does have two hot people in it, David and that Tina I watch it if they are in it, like I flick through lol.

Emmerdale is well and truely crashing and burning, A whole forum of die hard fans have switched off.

Corrie and EE are my favourites, if Emmerdale bucks up its ideas when Anita Turners work is shown, I will be back in my top 3

Yes, and each and every single one of those millions of people is a pleb.

What possible enjoyment can be found in watching something which is similar to real life? I can understand comedies, because they're supposed to entertain (like Shameless)...but real life drama (soaps) are just stupid.

People should watch something a bit more intellectually stimulating than Stacey wotserface shagging a couple of blokes every few weeks.

I find Shameless rubbish and rude, and chavvy lol (not saying people who watch it ar chavs)

It comes down to what people like, in this case EE get's that many veiwers because people like it, there's a lot more to EE then what you said, the storyline they did where Little Mo got abused by her husband helped so many people (women) after it was done it was reported that many women left they wife beatting husbands, EE research all their storylines before hand, they are not stupid, and still hold the tilte for the most watch UK soap ever with 30.15 million viewers when Den Angie divorce papers, no other soap has beat that.
