All My Shadows

Yeah, the video is awesome, but I was ready to tear some sh!t up when that dude slapped her!

So heartbreaking I'm glad she was able to stay on the show up until the end and was still having fun doing it. To me, it just doesn't get better than Annie, Bet, Betty, and Hilda working in the Rovers! When was the last time she appeared?

Decided to bump this up since I just read that today happens to be the tenth anniversary of our favorite little Canadian high school sudser (sorry, Edgemont!). Some of my favorite moments... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8bNq5cT7i4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsHkrIm7P0o

Patricia Breslin, who played Laura, died http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/patricia-modell-actress-and-wife-of-art-modell-dies/2011/10/12/gIQAFW6ifL_story.html

Fantastic news! I wish they would have canceled this show. Emily would have had to blow some sh!t up at ABC.

That was AMAZING. I love how nonchalant she is about just ruining people's lives. It's incredible. I wonder what the deal is with Daniel's roommate. At the senator's party, he pulled Daniel aside and said "We have to talk" or something like that, but we never saw the conversation. Of course, I'm secretly hoping that they went and had some hot Harvard sex. Are we supposed to like Declan or hate him? He yells too much, and he seems very whiny rich boy-ish considering he's poor. It was sweet that he didn't send the video, and also smart. I'm still confused as to why Adam would have the webcam on 24/7... Nolan is awesome, and I love how he just goes with whatever flow Emily sets up. He thinks she's batshit crazy, but he's totally game for whatever she wants him to do.

I still cringe whenever DH is nominated in the comedy categories at awards shows. Like WTF? Really? REALLY? Damn. They sold it as something other than what it became.

Honestly, to me, the only difference between David Canary now and David Canary on Bonanza is the hair color. I'm sure if I'd ever see him in person, it'd be different, but on screen, he really does look exactly the same.

YES. YES. Exactly. I've been watching via On Demand, and that's my main draw, right there. Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters, Dirty Sexy Money, even Grey's and Private Practice...no matter how dramatic they try to be, they ALWAYS have the quirky background music and random humor thrown in that stops me from calling them soaps (though I don't really think that's what they're trying for, but it's what people call them anyway). This show owns the hell out of its soapiness, and that's great.

The Pine Valley Bulletin says he was born in 1986...so yeah, that's some pretty epic SORASing.

To be honest, the whole 1985-1995ish time period is sketchy for me, which is weird. When I first got into the show, I read in-depth yearly summaries for all of the 70s (on SOC), so that's why I know so much about that period, and then the early 80s is a heavily-talked about period of the show, so I sort of picked up knowledge of it over the years (and now I've seen a ton of eps from then, so that helps). Thanks to most of you old people here, I have lots of secondhand knowledge of 90s stuff, but for whatever reason, it's like the late 80s never get talked about. I know so little about characters like Nico, Julie, Emily Ann, and even Jeremy and Natalie in their heyday. That one episode with Cliff in a jungle somewhere was a huge turn-off, but I know I need to complete my Pine Valley studies sooner or later

Late 80s AMC might as well be an entirely different show for me. I don't think I've ever spent any time watching clips or even reading about storylines from that era at all.

Paul was running for office, and his opponents wired his car to explode. Ann decided to use his car to run some errands, and well...you can guess what happened. Basically, Ann is to Paul's car as Jenny is to Greg's jetski.

Steven's stories do see damaging/depressing, the worst for me being trying to murder Pat. With her gone by the end of the year and Ian not wanting anything to do with him, he'll probably never show up again, which sucks. The Beale family essentially consists of Ian and Jane. Ridiculous.

So, what's the verdict on the Ben story? Let me be shallow and say that gay!boxer can do better. Where's Steven Beale when you need him?

OMG I'm done at the hip hop guys in the audience gleefully clapping for Julia Barr. Damn 90s.

I didn't realize that there were TWO realSilvers! I always picture Claire Beckman when I think of her. Ingledew. Damn, girl.

Okay, here are some questions I have: Who exactly is Klaus and what's his role? I did see some of the stuff from his introduction and how he's supposed to be like this big bad vampire who controls other vampires, but now he and Stefan are just hanging out somewhere in the middle of nowhere? And how exactly did that happen? Basically, how did we get to the point where Stefan is this evil character? What's the deal with Jeremy/Bonnie? Is Bonnie still on the show, and are she and Jeremy still together? Who killed Jenna? Or did she drown in liquor... I'm sure I have more, but those are the ones that come to me now.

I don't think that's Silver. realSilver was blonde, I believe.

OMG that's lame as hell!

Random question: how long have they been using Stamford Hospital in Connecticut as the exterior of PVH? I didn't expect to see it in some early 80s episodes I was watching a few days ago.

Andrew Ridings was playing JR when he was hooked up with Laurie. I remember Bennett's JR, but did he really have any storylines? He was on for almost a year (01-02), but I can't even remember him doing anything of note besides mourning Dixie. But then again, now that I think about it, I really wasn't watching much during his time. That was during the whole Bianca/Frankie stuff, and that was before I got my trusty ol' VCR.

I've always read that she was struck by a bus while crossing a street. I've seen it listed as an "automobile accident" on various sites, though.
