The critics?

Yeah I saw. They haven't a clue what they're talking about. EE is the best it's been in about 3 years.

They can be quite humouress sometimes but often v.offensive to the actors/actresses.

why do flippin jornolists always look at the bad side and never the good? i know scandal makes a juicier story but it is offensive to the actors that are all very talented people!

I'm just glad Corrie is getting a beating in the press nowadays. It sure deserves it more than Easties does :)

Maybe cause at the moment in EE there is no good?

I disagree, it's in the best shape it's been in for a long while. We all have issues with Mofie but that's only a minor gripe compared to the other improvements.

It has improved over the last month,kind of, but then again it was at the lowest of lows.

I think Corrie is losing it's touch and is now in a worse position than Easties chance :D

I just think the critics are unfair. It's one thing judging a storyline but sometimes they say things about the actor or actress for example:- "They look fat".

i agree, i dont think there is any need to insult the actors/actresses like that

Well the journalist has done the job their supposed to as we're all talking about the article.

I think it horrible the way they say so and so's looking a bit fat/thin - the've got no right.

At the moment you have to admit EE has not been great for the past year or so and have tried and failed using desperate methods to bring it back to normal standarts.

Corrie deserves the praise its getting it been better than EE this year (with the exception of the past few weeks) but the climax of the Charlie/Shelly storyline should be good

True re EE


Re Corrie. It is not failing at the minute. Yes there are some crappo stories amongst the good ones. Shelley and Charlie will come to a fantastic climax. I think the Danny and Leanne story will be brill. The main difference between EE and Corrie is that in corrie there are always at least 6 major stories going on and if some of them are not so good at least they do not dominate the entire episode. EE at the minute go for a couple of high profile stories and if these fail they have nothing to fall back on. The SHANNIS/ Kalfie/MOLFIE stuff is a prime example. When EE is good its EXCELLENT but when its bad its DIRE, I just wish we could have a few months of consistently good storylines without the producers dumbing down and going for the quick fix of sensationalism

I think Corrie's problem is sensational panto characters and I agree re: the number of storylines in each soap though alan45.

True Corrie has more than its share of Panto characters but they IMHO are compilations of a number of characters. We all know a Les and Cilla maybe not a Diggory but certainly a Norris and a Blanche

Treacle

I don't know a Les and a Cilla. They are too OTT for the characters they are supposed to be portraying.

Jade

Les and Cilla are great!!! although they are exagerated they seams to fit in well on the street. Also characters like them add much needs humour to the show (unlike EE) although they are trying that now with the Dot learning to drive storyline.
