okay, so regarding Kate. This is kind of like the whole Friends thing between Ross and Rachel and the "we were on a break" thing. Except not only were Sonny and Kate on a break but he proposed to her and she ran off...I don't feel sorry for her one bit. (well except for Michael shooting her).
And why is it that despite the lack of action during a sweeps (I assume its because of the strike that Guza wasn't able to pull off his typical Feb sweeps) this is still the best ABC soap hands down.
