Members Khan Posted April 4, 2012 Members Share Posted April 4, 2012 My theory: Bill actually had TWO mistresses, the fact that both shared the same first name was coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 Haha...Chris should be 27 years old. Kim was pregnant in 1985?? I think its part of the storyline in the Douglas Cummings story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 Soapcentral listed Chris' birthdate as 8/30/1986, so I'm sure Kim's pregnancy played a part in the Doug storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 Kim learned of her pregnancy a day or so before being kidnapped, and didn't get to tell Bob. During the story she did things like climb out a window making a rope out of sheets. Between that and undoing the early 70's stillbirth I think Marland decided Kim had the toughest uterus in Oakdale.

Members will81 Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 On Y&R it seems Ashley magically grew a new uterus as I seem to remember she had a hysterectomy after her car accident and miscarriage. Yet recently she got pregnant to Victor somehow. This isn't an historical inaccuracy so much, but something that always bugged me was the aftermath of the Jill/Jack affair on Y&R. Jack became the victim in the whole thing, while Jill was the man eater. When in reality it was the other way around. Jill crashed her car in the snow, thought she was going to die and also thought her marriage to John was falling apart. Brenda played it vulnerable and scared and Jack took advantage of Jill, she also had remorse the next day, while Jack was smug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 I guess Victor's vasectomy being magically reversed in 2008 is another one. GL did the same with Fletcher in 1995 (which led to hints, not followed up on, that he might be Michelle's father). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 Maybe he never got it to begin with or maybe he just went in and got the surgery to reverse it.It's not like Victor's hurting for money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCHistory Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 Tom Cudahy was a devout Catholic on AMC, thus his stance against Erica taking birth control, but he was married to 5 different women and had children with 2 (well, technically 3). I doubt the Catholic church would be open that many annulments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 At least with Fletcher he had the vasectomy years before he was in Springfield. Or how about that whole mess with Ryan on AMC thinking he got a vasectomy, but then a letter came saying it was never done. WHAT? One that drove me up a wall, was how in 1999, they wrote dialogue on GL that Holly and Ross were engaged when Blake went after him. Ross ended the engagement in the Fall of 1990, so how could they have been engaged in Spring 1992. Love the Tom Cudahy comment too true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted April 5, 2012 Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 The Ryan vasectomy thing always bugged the hell out of me. My husband has been snipped. Trust me, even someone as dumb as Ryan would have known that his balls were painfully swollen and sore. Tom was a hypocritical sexist Catholic. His wife using birth control = bad. Abortion = bad (he was shown protesting outside a clinic when Julia was pregnant by rape and terminated her pregnancy). Tom getting drunk and cheating on a pregnant Brooke with an equally drunk Erica the night before her wedding to Adam = apparently okay, although kudos to Brooke for giving him the boot. Tom getting married over and over and over again = totally fine too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Susan Hunter Posted April 6, 2012 Members Share Posted April 6, 2012 I love you! Jill just can't win. They turned Katherine into a Saint and Jack walked away from the whole affair thing pretty much unscathed. Jill isn't nice and made bad choices, but everything she used to say about Katherine in regards to Phillip was right on the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Charles Posted April 6, 2012 Members Share Posted April 6, 2012 That's the way it usually is, unfortunately. Not just with Catholics, but most organized religions -- or, rather, the people who claim to practice. Somehow men can go out and have all the sex they want (even if it's not for procreation), but 2 monogamist, loving gays marrying each other is somehow wrong...???

Members DeeeDee Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 She didn't have a hysterectomy. She was however told the accident made her unable to have any more children. Not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 I guess I mean more a victim to other characters, not so much the audience. I guess it was more the fact that most of the characters who knew about the affair, hated Jill, so you only really saw it from their point of view. Jill really only had Michael Crawford on her side, Jack almost always got sympathy from Dina, Nikki and Katherine during that time, it made perfect sense that these characters would respond that way, but it was frustrating. The same thing happened with Katherine, as soon as Liz left town, there was no-one to back Jill up to other characters about their past (Rex doesn't count since the past was rarely if ever brought up around him and he tried to be more neutral), and Kay always had Esther and Nikki to believe her version of events. Sorry these aren't historical inaccuracies and make perfect sense with character and story, just gets to me. I guess that was why Bill Bell was such a good writer, I am still talking about it.
