Just perfect...

Beautiful, moving film.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

I used to watch "Dark Shadows" and liked it. Of course I was a kid, it was the era of rebellion, and I thought Barnabas Collins had a great haircut. "Passions" is the work of morons with word processors. They hit the last straw with an orangutan in a nurses outfit!!! Sorry, if I want classy T.V. I'll go with reruns of "Dukes of Hazzard". (sarcasm) In all honesty, most T.V. shows ARE soap-operas. In a more refined version of the genre, the sub-plots of "The X-Files" went on for the entire run of the show. Same with shows like "Boston Legal"...a nite- time "soap" and tons-o-fun!! Any show is cool if you get into the characters and the plot line, no matter how weird. I can't stop watching "South Park", for example. Well, that's my beef for the day. I just can't believe a show like "Passions" is still on...... Robert

I don't know exactly why, but i love, i do get annoyed with them dragging out the plot forever, but there is that element to it will people end up with their true love, will they be true to their inner passion or will they stay where they are out of some moral obligation they feel they have to honor. If you haven't watched to show from the beginning then you have no clue and no right to judge it, you must understand the story and know the back history of the characters to see why they are who they are today, give the show a chance, i cant get enough of it, me and my friend everyday that we can are sitting in front of the TV engrossed in whatever new twist is happening on passions, hoping that the people that are meant to be together get together and stay together, all in all, i love it and hope you give it a chance

This show is just awful. The acting is so bad, and none of it is realistic at all. Whenever I see it I just sit there laughing. I can't understand how some people like it so much. There's a woman who's a witch and she's always talking with the "boys in the basement" and acting like supernatural forces govern our choices and outcomes in life. Theresa tries to make everyone's life miserable just so she can get back with Ethan and it always ends out the same. Ethan and Theresa staring at each other. Just get it over with! And don't even get me started with Fancy...The story is awful, it makes no sense, and it is exactly the same in every episode. Just kill them all off, and stop airing the show!

"...set in the seldom harmonious Harmony, perhaps the wildest soap since Dark Shadows." That TV Guide summary pretty much sums up Passions. The brain child of Soap King John. E. Reily, Passions is the day-to-day meddling of four coastal New England families. The Cranes are the all powerful and rich family. The Crane Patriarch is the sworn enemy of everyone but in particular the Lopez-Fitzgerald's (yep that's right they are Latino), and the Russells. The actions and run-ins of those three families are played about amongst the working class, every day family, the Bennetts.The four families (and all other players) in my mind can be connected through two people: Ethan Winthrop (Crane) and Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald. Theresa and Ethan are star-crossed lovers who you love to hate or hate to love.Along with the four families come Rebecca and Gwen Hotchkiss (socialites), Tabitha Lennox (Resident Witch (it's new England, you know they had to go there)), The Hastings (John and David), Liz Sanbourne, Chad Harris, Beth and Edna Wallace and minor characters such as cops and medical personnel that help move the scenes along with their blunt acting.Passions is supposed to be wild and cooky (at least that's the way it seems to me) and is not to be taken seriously. I love the soap and find it quite interesting that other soap viewers that bash this one, watch their old campy soaps because their "grandma watched it" awwwww, get over it. Passions is hip and fun and knows how to poke fun at its self. The acting is good compared to other soaps and everyone is not related like on "Days Of Our Lives".Passions is good and said to be bad my most fans who just can't get over the cancellation of "Another World".When you watch this soap, just watch for what it's worth. It's DAYTIME TV, not a contender for an Oscar. Just escape your world and sit back for 58 minutes and enjoy the world of Harmony.
