Dirty Soap Coming to Australia

US E channel's hit new show Dirty Soap has been picked up by it's Australian cable channel counterpart E! and will begin airing Tuesday 18 October! This is awesome news for Aussie viewers, as most US soaps (or soap-related shows) aren't shown in Australia anymore (apart from Days of Our Lives and the Bold and the Beautiful) - for some reason Aussie TV likes to show US soaps for a year, then not renew the rights (boooooo!!!!).

Dirty Soap stars General Hospital's Kelly Monaco and Kirsten Storms, One Life to Live's Farah Fath and John Paul Levoisier, Days of Our Lives' Galen Gering (and wife Jenna) and Nadia Bjorlin, and the Bold and the Beautiful's Brandon Beemer.  Shamefully under-represented are actors from the Young and the Restless, but I'm told they were not allowed to take part (missed opportunity if you ask me, hello Daniel Goddard and Christian Le Blanc!).

Random Thoughts 4/11: Days of Our Lives

Some guy with an accent: "The DiMeras have a jail cell in their basement"
Vivian: "Well who doesn't?!"
Gold.

I have to say that Galen Gering is Rockin' It as Bad Rafe! Creepy, yet Hot! I don't like the story, but Galen has been unfailingly entertaining!

Ari did a great job reacting to Fay's death. I can't stand Nicole, but Ari is a terrific (and underrated) actress. But is it wrong that I giggled when Nicole and Taylor first found out Fay died? Arianne just kind of threw herself into Natalia. She almost knocked her down, lol! Fay's death was pretty amusing all around actually. I thought Taylor calling Brandon was a nice touch.

I have a strange fascination with Natalia Livingston as Taylor and the EJaylor stuff - it's the whole train wreck thing I guess. Anti-Chemistry 101. 

But I have to ask: What's up with Taylor's self-righteous attitude towards the DiMeras and Kiriakis'? As if the Walkers are any better? A psychotic rapist father, a money grubbing, child kidnapping, ex-porn star sister, and a brother that wasn't exactly Mr. Clean. Where does she get off passing judgment on anyone else's family??

*sigh* Just when I'm starting to like Philip (hot new haircut, sweetness towards Chloe) he's gonna leave :(

I've barely been watching DAYS over the last couple of years. I've watched the show since I was a kid, but in the last several years it's turned into a show I don't recognize. But I'm trying to hang in there! Got a lot of catching up to do, so forgive me if I'm hazy on characters and stories!

So, what did you guys think of the show? Love It? Hate It?
