My love/hate affair with this crappy soap
Ryu_Darkwood1 July 2007
The oldest Dutch soap on television. Like its genre demands, it is a mix of cheap sets, worthless actors, plot lines that don't make any sense and dialog's that seems to be written by a 5-year old schoolboy. You can safely conclude that it's a burning pile of crap. But hey, who cares about that, it's a soap and therefore its viewers just don't ask for some quality in it.

I personally have a hate/love affair with this show. I can't watch it without complaining about everything that is bad. But at the other hand, growing up with my mother and sister, I watched it almost everyday from my 12th till my 16th. When I started to live on my own I noticed that fore some nostalgic reason I kept watching it. Just because it came after the news of half past seven and just before movies start at half past eight.

Nowadays I just see 1 or 2 episodes a month with my mother and that is enough to stay up to date on the ''exciting'' story lines that this show has to offer.

I admit: I watch it. Every day.

Yes, I watch 'Goede Tijden, Slechte' ('Good Times, Bad Times'), aka 'GTST', and to add more to it: I love the soap.

My mother started to watch it when I was about three years old. However I started to really understand it after a couple of years, I followed it every day. It has now a very high sentimental value for me, and I have seen several characters come and go in this soap series.

Of course, it is mindless entertainment: you turn off your brains (if you do not, you will not be able to watch it) and you watch the misadventures of Ludo, Laura, Janine, Jeff, Bing, Sjors, Noud, Nina, Wiet, Lorena, Jack, and many, many others. How long this series will stand, I do not know. But I do know this: I hope it will continue for a very long time.

And my apologies for eventual crappy writing: my English grammar is kind of very bad.

Bad

Very bad. Don't watch this awful show. It's cringe and the annoying cliffhangers are bad. There are way to many episodes so its just useless to really understand what the show is about. Avoid this at all costs.
