Do you watch Coronation Street

[heartgirl99]

i thought it was a bit farfetched to have erica get pregnant.

too bad jenny is turning out to be psycho. it would be nice to have kevin find someone.

Spoilers

Spoiler

Nick does not become a dad
Jenny looks for a house for her and "her son"

The whole Tony and Tracy trying to get the pub story is just meh

I am not surprised they are trying a cast shakeup, they have lost a lot of viewers and Eastenders (their major competing show) is doing much better with ratings

The most recent bomb involving Nick just blew me away. She's 49? I thought she was older than that. She looks like she has had plastic surgery to me. I miss the fun little gems about everyday life on the Street...but not chickens in the backyard. Nobody has any money, but they all seem to go to the gym and eat out and buy drinks and "go to Spain." Wish I could afford to be that broke. I still watch it religiously, though...my one guilty pleasure.

Why can corrie not have some nice stories? I will put my rant in a spoiler but some of it probably aired already

Spoiler

The whole Tracy/Tony thing is ridiculous, trying to get half the pub and we all know it will end in tears, now she is supposed to try and kill Carla who is leaving?

I am really over the whole David / Max / Callum thing. They seem to have forgotten the kid has issues and he is back to a well adjusted kid and Callum just tries too hard. I know it is to cover Kylie's maternity, but David did adopt the kid a while back which they seem to have ignored. I remember him showing Audrey the paperwork and her saying oh so he is yours now

Sarah Lou / Bethany just don't work for me. Sarah comes in all mouthy and as soon as she meets Callum is under his thumb? I know they had to find a second Bethany in a hurry for the story line after the issues with the first one they hired but she annoys me. It maybe would have been nice for Sarah to be a mentor to Faye saying be a mother don't be a friend etc

Faye - never a big fan of the storyline anyway but it makes me want to throw things at the TV when Anna starts screaming

I miss the old days of Corrie's comedy and pathos; now, it seems, it's just constantly chaos.

Well tonight's (UK version) was explosive! So much in that 1/2hr and it made me miss Derdrie's "oh Tracey"

indeed! she's something else, isn't she?!

[FallenPixels]

She is

Spoiler

not that I want Amy to die, but would have made an interesting storyline.
Maddie is leaving so I am guessing that was her exit story too, that way Jenny can still kidnap Jack

i remember a lot of years ago being in a library with
my mom, when she was the big corrie street fan,
saw a bunch of corrie videos available on tape,
from the beginning,

would be interesting to see the whole show, from 1960
