I like Rose, Dusty and Paul, and I love the actors who portray them. I like
Rose because she's ethnic, a Catholic even. Oakdale is too full of Wasps. I
like Dusty's unpredicability and complexity. I like Roger's Paul. He's also
unpredictable and complex.

Also, I think this story is character driven. Roger's Paul is a Stenbeck.
Dusty loves Rose because she's Lily's twin (my opinion), and Rose is torn
between two lovers because she's basically insecure and feels inferior to
Lily (my interpretation).

I'm not sure I LIKE the story. But Hogan has separated lovers in a more
complex way than most soaps. No one has amnesia, no one is in a wheelchair
(now, Andy was!), no one is in jail falsely imprisoned, no one is blind and
wants to spare the lover from a lifetime of sacrifice. Dusty/Rose/Paul is a
very strange love triangle for a soap. \

I sure don't.  Usually, someone comes along and says they're

I'm not enjoying it per se, but I'm going along for the ride.

Not me! I like Rose, and I'm hoping against hope that she won't be killed
off.
