Molly Burnett Films An Episode Of Empire!

Well Love her or Hate her, Molly Burnett is making a name for herself, the actress just finished filming a short stint on the websoap Empire today.

Molly is filming along Days Of Our Lives co-star Casey Deidrick for this stint. Their scenes will be airing as part of the 3rd season of Empire which will air later this year.

To catch up on Empire, head on over to the official website by clicking the link here.

So, Do You Like Melanie?

The results from last week's poll is in - and now we know if you like Melanie (Molly Burnett) from Days of Our Lives or not... and with 58% of the vote, the Yes's win! 34% said No, and 6% said they Didn't Care.  I'll work hard on finding a character you do care about haha.

What about the Debate results?  Well, I'm still trawling through the chat transcript and I've managed to get it down to 10 pages (seriously, these people know how to chat), so when I've cut a bit more, I'll post it here.

The Great Melanie Debate

This weekend something unique is happening.   SoapOperaBabble (Melanie S) and I do not see eye-to-eye about the character of Melanie Layton (portrayed by Molly Burnett) on Days of our Lives.

When Melanie L first came onto our screens in 2008, neither Melanie S nor myself were fans.  In fact, we wished Melanie L had been killed instead of her "then" father Trent Robbins (Roscoe Born).  Slowly over time (and I, unlike Melanie S, watch DOOL regularly), I have come to appreciate Melanie L's wit and charm; putting simply, I like her more and don't grit my teeth when she's onscreen.  Melanie S on the other hand, quite simply, can't stand her.  Needless to say, we have quite interesting (read: hilarious) discussions about her when we skype chat/IM/email.

Now that we have the blog, we've decided to have a debate about Melanie L and then post (some) it on here. Only now a few of our Twitter friends are planning to join us.  On the pro-Melanie L side is myself (Denial Island), 411 on Soaps' Peter and Soap Opera Source's William; joining Melanie S on the anti- side is 411 on Soaps' Gigi (Gigi4462).  On the fence is our good friend over at One View on Llanview who also watches DOOL, Nicole (Disneysoapfan).

Stay tuned for the debate - you wont have to wait long, last I heard we were holding it this coming weekend (March 6-7)!  So until then, please post any comments or YouTube clips you think may help either argument, and lookout for some pre-debate tweets by searching #GreatMelanieDebate on Twitter!

PS. Isn't it annoying when the soap characters you *hate* share the same name as you? :P Mel!!
