Thanks for updates to The Secret Storm. I've edited them as per Wikipedia guidelines. Are you the guy from Goldensoaps? I asked to use your screencaps and you never emailed me back. Mike H 02:02, Jul 20, 2004 (UTC)
Thank you for the clarification on the (non)-supernatural nature of The Secret Storm. That's been puzzling me for a while, since I've not been able to find any information on just how TSS was 'supernatural', as so many sources claim it was.
What about putting in material to explain that misconception? Something like "Though many references describe The Secret Storm as a 'supernatural soap', there was actually only one supernatural plotline on the show, during the time that it was losing ratings to Dark Shadows, which was an actual supernatural soap..." That's often a good way to deal with material that shouldn't actually stay in: ask instead "why did someone think this should go in?" and then answer that question. -- Antaeus Feldspar 19:08, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Also, to help you out, I've found a few other pages which describe TSS as a 'supernatural soap', where you may want to make the correction. (I'd do it myself, but I feel a bit weird doing it when I myself have never seen the show in question...) -- Antaeus Feldspar 17:15, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I'm sorry. I just always heard that it was. The show was canceled a full eleven years before I was born, so I figured people (like my mother and grandmother) knew more than I did. Mike H 17:18, Oct 1, 2004 (UTC)
