Is The Street On The Way Back?
Have to say I have actually enjoyed the last few episodes. That comes after rubbishing episode after episode, almost to the point of deciding enough was enough.
Other than the unrealistic Alya blackmail story I can't think of too many negatives. Even the odd funny moment has crept back in. Hopefully, this isn't a false dawn. |

Still a load of bull at the moment. But it's far more watchable than ED at the moment. I never thought i would say that.
I have actually really enjoyed Cathy's story-line. Nice to see someone different take on a lead role for a small while. Melanie Hill has proven she can hog the limelight for a bit. I hope Kate continues to give her more story-lines. |

I think it's gradually improving, character interaction is much better and the humour is less slapstick. The storylines are really letting it down but I have a feeling they will get better.

Excited for the big stunt I must say
It's not utter tedium like it was a few months back but it's around 4.5 out of 10 on average for me. I think when the Barlows return will be the real start of Kate'/ reign for me and the first sure sign if she's going to be good for the show. |

I thought this thread was going to be about the drama series 'The Street' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Street_(UK_TV_series)
![]() ![]() As for Corrie, I've yet to see yesterday's episode, but from watching Monday's I think it is gradually improving, but for me, it can only improve so much because there is a 'glass celling' in a way, meaning that if the show doesn't have a MASSIVE overhaul and drag itself out of the 90s and into the 21st century, then it can't truly be good again. The show's a bit of a joke now to be honest, I'd actually go as far as to say it is the most unrealistic soap on TV. Shame. |

Yes Corrie has been good lately and Emmerdale is falling apart.

I think Emmerdale is still the better of the two ITV Soaps. I think it has a good balance of drama and 'lighter' stuf. I don't find the comedy 'cringeworthy' or forced either, I find it quite a natural, sarcastic type humour, I'm enjoying it personally

Balanced? I think yesterday was the first episode in over a week that had something other than comedy. They've had 3 costume parties in the last 2 months and are featuring the comedy character way too much
That's just my opinion though, I can understand where you're coming from, but I don't agree

But the difference is, I actually like the comedy elements, and yes it is balanced because there's drama going on with Kerry (It may be a crap storyline, but it's still drama) mixed in with the humour and day to day stuff
