Pilar, I'd like to think you're right as to the quantity of people who are enjoying this stuff being very small. I get the impression from just the internet that a lot of ToddFirsters as well as most TnTers and even some of the more Todd-oriented T&Bers aren't loving this. As for offline fans, I only know my mother. She quit watching with me on 12/1/98 and tuned in for one scene when he returned in 6/00, thought the new version of Todd was just a jerk and hasn't watched since. -- At The Bayberry

In reply to: Pilar 's message, "Elisa, I take ANY of �vocal online minority� spins w/a HUGE grain of salt especially after hearing they were lauding Kassie as an Emmy worthy actress! MAJORITY out there sure doesn�t think so, including her peers, as she�s never once been nominated! LOL! �LindaBlair� act was way over the top example of Kassie not understanding the word �subtle is better.� My point is I�ve learned talking to offliners that �online soap community� doesn�t always well-represent majority!" on 09:41:45 03/18/01 Sun

Elisa, I don't think it's a coincidence that "Hell No" was only spike in ratings in months of heavily promoted BnT NOR that Roger's ONLY critical acclaim from mags was for specter & Hell No weeks. I think those are CONCRETE signs Todd focused story w/depth rates much higher with MOST OLTL viewers than BnT crap. (NT) -- Pilar, 16:58:49 03/18/01 Sun
- I heard spin only TnTers were flooding soap mags w/anti-BnT letters but I still haven't gotten answered why then did SOD report calls for Todd & Skye!? Never bought only TnTers are unhappy, I'm definitely a Toddaholic, knows others like myself who have watched Todd thru ALL his pairings yet are tuning out. And overall show sucks so much nothing except Cris & Jen do I find bearable. (NT) -- Pilar, 17:06:30 03/18/01 Sun
- Elisa, I said it in January & will again now this story is wrecking Todd's popularity/appeal. Sad to see b/c for a couple of weeks including some riveting T&B jailhouse scenes, I think there was lots of positive buzz for Roger/Todd. (NT) -- Pilar, 17:09:31 03/18/01 Sun
  - Pilar... I know that I am a "biased" TnTer, but I can certainly attest to the fact that "BnTrash" has definitely wrecked Todd's appeal for moi, the Todd phenom is no more, not HERE, not with ME! (NT) -- jackie, 03:56:50 03/19/01 Mon
