LOL Funny story. Okay the Canadian broadcast does this stupid Soap's Up thing during half-time for AMC, and the host is a huge Zach/Zendall fan. Fine and dandy, except she constantly gushes over him, once used her show to encourage people to write in for him, and trash talks everyone else. Today she insinuated that the only reason the Dixie storyline is written this way (so badly) is so that Cady could get an emmy. That annoyed me, I finally got really pissed off, wrote an email off to the show complaining and made a short thread on SOC. Guess what? She wrote me back, TWICE, about it, and saw the thread on SOC. She must think I'm crazy. I had to bite my tongue and write back a mini apology to her, I felt bad. LOL. Who knew she looked at SOC? ;D

LOL nothing too major, said she appreciated my criticisms and is now having a long email discussion with me about Dixie and Cady. LMAO. (seriously, she keeps writing me back)
She said she would try to pay more attention to her favouritism in the future.

If you were nice from the get go she might not have seriously considered your remarks . And if she does watch her favoritism in the future you should remind yourself that your efforts have actually helped her become more professional. Good for you Minkie!

Good for you Minkie for making her stop to think before she talks. I don't think that's an "oops" at all. Maybe she'll mention you on her next show... hee hee.

I don't think it's an Oops either. It's quite possible she was unaware how one-sided her little talks were. And in the biz one-sided=unprofessional

Maybe you can show her the error of her ways regarding Zach/Zendall! LOL or better yet convince her that Dixie and Zach should get together since their more age appropriate.

Minkie, the Zendall fanatics hate Dixie because of the threat she posed to Zendall's reunion. Anyone other than Kendall for Zach is a threat. I'm really betting she's one of those idiots at "another board" who go over the edge about Zendall and make the rest of us crazy!

Good going, Minkie...If there is one thing I hate, it is soap reporters or scoopsters that worship one character on the show and insult the rest. If she is going to do commentary on AMC, she shouldn't let her favoritism be so apparent..if she wants to build a shrine to TK in her bedroom closet, that is her business....just keep it off the air....

I'm really betting she's one of those idiots at "another board" who go over the edge about Zendall and make the rest of us crazy! Oh believe me, she sent me a LOOOONG email (one of three at least) about how much she loves Cady and loved the old Dixie. She's mad they have ruined the character. I think she finally stopped emailing me though. LOL.
