In my opinion, no, it's worse. It depends on what you're looking for though. There are several big stories going on, like Maria and Kaz, Phelan and the flats (still!), the David and Anna car accident and the baby triangle with Steve. This is not the sort of storyline I enjoy though and have always loved the every day goings on and the great partnerships in Corrie, like Roy and Hayley, Rita and Norris, Mary and Norris etc. The humour has always been my favourite thing about Corrie (Mary is my current favourite character). I seem to be in the minority though and people want big storylines nowadays.
