A great example of why I'm baffled at the media who insist the case is an automatic win for gay marriage supporters. http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2015-04-28/roberts-kennedy-question-gay-marriage-as-top-court-clash-starts Maybe they are setting LGBT people up for a fall, since the media loves to push anti-gay stories and they'd love to get to write stories about "the heartland" and "overreach" and "backlash against pushing too far."

That episode was very dynamic. The rest of her story that season...eh. I did like when she stood up to the guy from Meereen who tried to bribe her and threaten her.

Ann did lose this baby - it's mentioned in one from later 1967. The backstory, of what I can remember - Liz was working for Nick while he was testing a new formula. She fell in love with him. He'd been seeing Althea, whose son Buddy was sick. She didn't realize how sick, and he died at the hospital while she was in bed with Nick. Meanwhile, Liz was despondent over their relationship, and tested the formula on herself, which led to her having a breakdown and nearly dying. Nick, out of guilt, proposed to her.

No, as there were articles by the start of the next decade or the end of this one about his being single or looking for love.

So what was Phoebe's role? She seems to have lasted a number of years.

We'll know there's real change when certain longstanding dead weight goes.

Nice photo of Charita. Rare type of photo for her. This is the guy who played Wyatt, right?

September 1967 TV Picture Life Joan Anderson temped for Ann Williams (Eunice, SFT) over a 3 week period because Ann was having pregnancy difficulties. (she would fill in for her again in early 1969)

September 1967 TV Picture Life

She's been brainwashed/manipulated by a man who helped kill her family, set her up on a murder charge, used her to help cover up her aunt's murder, and risks her life by parading her around the North in plain view. If anything I think things ended up being even worse for her, given that she now has no protection from a rapist and murderer. All the twist told me was that the show will never be able to see Sansa as more than a generic ingenue/victim, unless they magically rewrite Ramsay to not be a complete lunatic. He would never care about anything she has to say. Neither would Roose, really.

That's wonderful news. I'm so happy.

Oh good, more normal believable teen characters written out so we can get Coker and Carter overload.

Disappointed at Danny Miller not getting shortlisted. It's funny, I was so sick of him in his first run that I almost resented the idea of him winning, and now that I don't mind him, I think I've jinxed him. Well that and I guess a messy love affair with a closeted bisexual who may or may not be on the road to Cameronville doesn't get the positive vote that the endless weeping and sexless, Puritan misery of the Jackson story. I really hope Natalie Anderson or Michael Parr win, unlikely as that is. If Adam W wins I'll be happy but if that blowfish Danny Dyer wins for being Danny Dyer, I'll be so disappointed. Not even going to bother with the panel awards and guessing.

It's always the, "PALS? PALS?" that gets me in that argument. Julie Goodyear may not have been the best actress, but when they actually wrote for her in the proper way, she really could break your heart. You know, just as Rita knows, that it's not just a slanging match or time for a cliched "soap slap" or a hair pull - it's the end of something that can never come back. The whole thing also reminds me that sometimes characters can stay too long...even as people like Emily are pretty much fully intact, even after 55 years, the Rita we see now is a shadow of the one we see here. And this scene makes a mockery of every time the writers used Rita as an ATM for that sourface twit Tina.

This is from an old Rona Barrett Gossip (April 1978)

Why was there a need to actually show Tommen and Margaery in bed? Couldn't we get the gist of it from her talk the next morning? It felt like shock value. Natalie Dormer spoke of her discomfort with the scene last season where she was supposed to kiss Tommen - was this somehow their way of making sure she got the message? They've repeatedly made Margaery look like an idiot, with her taunting Cersei (and this was not the first time), and her allowing Loras to troll for dick in the local brothels. And they've also taken away most of her savvy by making it clear that her main skill with Tommen is that she's a sexy lady. I don't know why the show has such an odd disdain for the Tyrells, and I say that as someone who loves watching Cersei and often feels pity for her even when I shouldn't. In other thoughts... - I'm glad to finally see some depth to Brienne's story again, and to see her treat Pod with more basic decency. That Gwendoline Christie is such a striking woman just makes the whole "ha ha Brienne the Beauty" arc more poignant, in some odd way, because many who are called ugly are beautiful, they just don't fit society's standards. - Really glad to see that Jon's story continues to be strong and shapes the character, and that Slynt was a coward to the end. - Still don't care about Tyrion and glad his airtime was relatively brief. I hope Jorah will get my interest. - I'm reminded of why I prefer sparing use of Jaqen. Too much becomes ponderous late-season BSG riddle-talking. It's nice to see Arya (and viewers) reminded that she really has a long way to go, but I just have very limited interest. But the scene where Arya couldn't give up Needle was one of her strongest in quite a while. - Does anything sum up this show more than a very tense, powerful scene (Jon beheading Slynt) immediately panning to closeups of random naked women displaying themselves for a dirty old man? - A+ for Jon/Davos interaction. - I felt queasy when Sansa was begging Littlefinger not to make her go with the Boltons. How did this story so quickly become another chapter in Sansa being debased and used by various men? And again I will ask just how stupid is this man? I'd love to say this will end with Sansa having some strength or power, but I just can't trust it.

That's fascinating. If you ever see her I hope you tell her some of us still remember her work as Ellen fondly.
