Oh, my god! Sunset Beach! lol We(my sister and I) used to watch it just so we could make fun of the characters! Great memories of a truly appalling series...
And I totally understand you about Charmed! I never thought it was a good series, but I've watched many episodes of it and if I see it on TV I feel kind of compelled to watch it. Weird.

And I'm (again!)right there with you about the hotness of threesome/dirty-talking/spanking/ownership marks. *wistful sigh* Now I need a fic...
