It just seems to be getting worse.
I don't find the storylines or acting very good now. Esp as Ken Barlow has come back,he just seems a very dull actor. And the whole camping with Deirdre thing, what the hell was that all about, it wasn't even funny.
Not just having a go at Barlow, but other storylines too, Kirk proposing to Beth, Gail and her new love. I'm just finding it dull.
I'm actually finding Eastenders a bit more interesting , dare I say that, even though Ian beale makes me skin crawl .

Look at the stories:
Ken/Deirdre: What was that camping trip all about? A cringey attempt at comedy
Peter/Jim: Surely the prison guards would notice how Peter is behaving by now.
Leanne/Nick: How can Leanne try to get maintenance from Nick for SImon, when he isn't his? Plus, that was bad acting from Ben Price, as I could tell he was faking even though I knew he was faking - if that makes sense.
Gail/Micheal: A couple with no chemistry. A story that is making a mockery of the restorative justice system
Kylie/Max: More research into Max's ADHD is needed. The doctor seemed to diagnose, (although not officially), but is should take weeks/months to diagnose and not one quick assessment.
Beth/Kirk: A really bad romantic proposal.
Andrea/Neil/Steve/Lloyd: Why is Lloyd so desparate for someone he picks up the first woman he sees all of the time? As an actress, Hayley Tamaddon wasn't this bad on Emmerdale. The Neil actor (don't know his name) needs acting lessons ASAP.
I don't watch EE, but from reading posts on DS, their problems last year was down to focusing on the younger characters too much. My nan and mum stopped watching for a while but now they love it again. In Corrie now, they focus on young and unpopuar characters i.e. Maddie, Sophie, Alya, Katy, Steph, Luke, Chesney, Faye. Out of them, I don't like Maddie and Alya.
What is to come on Corrie?
Cilla's return, Peter, Rob, Jim and Katy leaving, Eva, Kylie and Fiz taking maternity leave.
The comedy of Corrie is dire. The only worthy comical scenes are with Mary and Norris.
The Deirdre scenes with her dog were truly cringemaking.
I now have to watch it on YouTube just to fastforward 3/4 of it.
The new muslim family are a joke. What is the point of having a muslim family in it, if the writers are just going to write them as white characters? The only distinction there is between them and the other cast is that they mentioned ramadam etc a thousand times, and that was shoved down everyones throats as well....
The only people worth watching in my opinión is Carla, Rob and Tracey.
Steve is acting like a baffoon with each passing episode. He's meant to be a pub landlord, yet he acts more and more like a naughty schoolboy.
Lloyd and Andrea and his daughter are just too boring.
And Maddie needs to leave quickly.
Tina storyline is really bad! No doubt it will win best storyline at next years BSA though considering corrie is their fav:D
I agree . Mary (Patti Clare) is a gem!
Des and Gail are the highlight of the show. At least you can laugh at them.
Corrie is and always will be The Queen of Soaps. I made the mistake of tuning into Eastenders the other night. Five minutes was enough: horrible people shouting at each other in horrible voices. DO NOT LIKE
This thread is about Corrie. why bring Eastenders into it given you don't watch it
No wonder as the British Soap Awards are on itv, the channel Corrie is shown on!
It may be funny at times but even when Eastenders have lighter moments, it isn't as cringeworthy as we have now.
