The soapiest soap that ever did soap. Alcoholism, wealth, decadence, unrequited love, impotence, and death threats. I love me some Douglas Sirk melodrama for your mama!

What a scene! That’s some heavy dose of #DouglasSirk melodrama for ya! #TCMParty #WrittenOnTheWind
Ummm, okay. I don’t know what’s happening with my tv. At the beginning of Alicia’s intro and now while watching #WrittenOnTheWjnd subtitles popped up. I didn’t initiate it and didn’t think I could do that with TCM?
Anyone else??
