For people like me who do like them but wish DTC would use the other characters more and stop shoe-horning the Carters into every scene and ep.

Rules

1.DTC is not god he is just the EP.

2.NO bashing or arse-kissing the Carters, unless they deserve it.

Why?

You created one to bash them and someone created one to worship them so why can't I create one for the 'inbetweenies'?

Because of the one gi created as a mocking one. Too many in one day is overkill. They'd all be better of created a day apart atleast and one bang bang bang all up.

Mine is also o stop the constant negative ones that crop up every day.

YOU created one, GI created one, so I can too. How dare you call my thread 'overkill'?

Nobody made you a moderator!

I mean, it's all getting really silly now, some people love the Carters and some don't and some are in between so if there's a like thread and a dislike thread then there should be one for the neutrals too.

Your thread is so that people can bash the Carters and GI's is so that people can kiss their arses but mine is for all those who are neutral so it's as valid as any!

You do realise that they will all be closed anyway?

This has gotten so ridiculous, is there any actual proper discussions and debating left on this forum?!

They shouldn't be closed as the ones always created are getting annoying. I didn't mean it like that but they were all created in such a short space of time but I apologise. No users from what I saw asked for a praising one (which tbh is mocking mine) yours has better intentions then that thread but it came
Too soon after imo but I apologise.

I think this is the thread for me. I think the Carters were really well-thought out as a family and have overall been a positive for the show. Most of their storylines have been good ideas at the very least, although some have been executed far better than others. Some characters have promise but need more development - for instance, I've never quite understood the derision on here for Lee, but I don't understand the seeming reluctance to develop him.

I will say that too much has happened too quickly for the family. Every thing that has happened has been a really good idea, but it's been too much tragedy at once. This should have been paced over 2-3 years instead of a single year. And like almost all of the other characters and families on the show, I think the Carters have suffered from block story-telling. If nothing else, the blocks need to be of shorter duration. I'm constantly trying to remember what someone was last doing after a three week break in a major story.

Maybe someone will create anAdult discussion of the conflicting opinions of the Carters where everyone respects everyone else's opinions thread?

Would be nice, but easier to be disrespectful and nasty which seems to be the norm on here of late.

There is more chance of me watching Coronation Street than that happening.

I find the 'Well THEY did it so I can do' attitude a little bit childish and unnecessary to be honest. If it's sanity and neutrality you're after you're on the wrong forum Anyways, onto the point. I find myself getting increasingly frustrated with DTC over the Carters. He's overwhelmed himself with them and they are suffering as a result. Even the Brannings weren't this bad because they had seperate branched storylines throughout the square. With this lot they're all deeply involved in the same storylines, making the same reactions and going to the same places...

I don't mean to be childish but someone is telling me I shouldn't have made this thread (a person who made a Carters 'bashing' thread and all) so what's good for the goose is good for the gander and at least I was trying to be a bit more sensible about it, I mean I know everyone doesn't like the Carters but everyone doesn't dislike them either!

And anyway...

JG and GI started it!

I like a bit of ABBA as well, Shirl is definitely a Mamma Mia!

Why not chuck in a couple of 'Dyer' Straits tunes as well?

Or what about Danny Dyer and Chris Rea singing a duet?

They could call themselves Dyer Rea!
