I became completely obsessed with Neighbours when I moved to Australia. It's a guilty, guilty pleasure, but I love it. It's not shown in America at all. It's a soap opera, but it's not anything like American soap operas. It's half an hour long and airs at 6:30 in the evening. It's based around this cul de sac called Ramsay Street which has four or five houses in it, and the people who live there and how they interact with each other. Little Typing Man, I know what you're talking about. The guy who plays Joe Scully got fired from the show with no warning at all, and no storyline filmed about how his character leaves/dies. He's still in the episodes airing now, but poor old Joe will probably have an "undignified offscreen death". From what I've heard, the guy (I think his name is Shane Connor) had lots of substance abuse problems, and that's why he was fired. I think the episodes airing in the UK are only about 6 weeks behind Australia, actually. I think the storyline with Stuart leaving the cult and meeting up with Jamie Kennedy in the caravan park is happening in the UK now, which was on much less than three months ago here. Currently in Australia, Liljana (David Bishop's wife) is having a big fight with her mother, and the KENNEDYS ARE GETTING A DIVORCE! Ramsay Street is falling apart at the seams. Tee hee. I watch Home & Away too, but gee, is it ever crap. I can't believe Kirsty lied about being pregnant.

I love neighbours! And I agree, home and away is so crap! Though, I've gotta admit, I have been watching it recently, but the acting is really bad! Not like neighbours. ;D
I hate Carl! He's so mean to Susan, and Serena is really starting to bug me again, I'd just got over her being such a posh, wanna be, but, though I don't know why, she's beginning to annoy me again. I don't know why they don't show much of Sky and Boyd though. You never see them for long lately. Well, I also really, really, really hate Lizzy (max's sister). I don't think I have to explain why.

Lizzy? You mean Izzy (short for Isabella). I HATE the entire Bishop family: Harold, David, The gypsy, the (suck in air through teeth) grandma, the dumb serana and the mangelar. That whole Joe thing I hadn't heard about it really suprised me. But then again I don't like Joe either why did he always pronounce Taj, Tag (shudders)
