Thanks. So Erica and Travis weren't married for most of her pregnancy? Or am I messing up timelines? I wonder if Phoebe or Enid clucked over that. I hope some of these episodes might have some Erica/Silver scenes. I remember when I first started to read up on the show I wanted to know if Silver and Erica had any interaction on Silver's return stint. I know they were on that island together, thanks to the videos, so now I hope we might see that scene where Erica encourages Silver to fight for Jeremy. That scene where Silver asked Jeremy if he had any regrets over not being with Erica kind of made me a little sad.

Wow. He has the same eyes but his face has thinned out quite a bit. What's he doing now?

Yes. Happens to me too.

Thanks for uploading and responding. The least I can do is comment.

Sorry to hear this. I enjoyed her work on Isidingo.

I said I liked Nina's top and she's wearing it again, nearly a year later. Well, works for me. The little boy who plays Bobby has a nice bond with Peter Bergman. I have to admit the Cliff/Nina stuff bores me a little but it's nice to see Myrtle's boarding house. Is Nina pregnant? Do you know who is playing Cecily's friend (I know she was in the April 87 episode too)? She looks so familiar. The flashback of Jeremy taking down Natalie's hair is touching. I never knew Jack interacted with Natalie or worked for Palmer. It's too bad they later made him so upstanding - he works as a bit of a wheeler-dealer. So was Erica heavily pregnant when she married Travis? She has her baby in the spring and they're making it sound like she and Travis just got married. 

Given his demotion at Bravo, I tend to wonder if he wants her back to remind him of the days when he had full control. A lot of this season doesn't feel as much like Andy Cohen material (eg, no women who basically exist as toxic waste dumps who act crazy because of a constant need for attention), there's more focus on family, less on the whole season being about some brawl (even though there is a brawl coming up, of course). BH feels much more like his vision of the franchise, for better or worse.

I don't love the gown but she looks nice. Nice chic hair.

Thanks! This is great.

I tend to think Kenya and Nene sort of argue for show, because their feuding gives them both airtime, without getting too personal. I do wonder if one of the reasons Andy wants Kim back so much is so Nene can have more of a story.

cheap thank you for the gifs of that Kandi scene. I'd seen some but they were awful quality. Just a delicious moment.

Thanks!

That long speech she gave to that Natalie woman about how Natalie had complimented her and basically said she was a hot, rich goddess, and how kind of Natalie to say that, as Natalie sat there stewing, is one of the best reality TV moments I've seen in a long time. It's the type of thing that daytime soaps and primetime soaps don't really do anymore because they long ago lost track of writing for women. Reality shows aren't really a haven for these type of moments either, in recent years, but this was a big exception.

It's always kind of interesting to me that the other HW shows go to more expensive places, but they feel trashier, I guess because a lot of those shows don't seem to have any glamour now. Atlanta has its own sort of glamour and style which makes their trips to various locales, even when they're just other parts of Georgia, seem like more.

I totally forgot about the Rae stuff. I think I'm going to keep doing that. I forgot Charlotte was the Devane mother. I'm surprised she isn't on GH yet.

Thanks. I thought I remembered a Charlotte. Too bad the baby wasn't his - just another pointless child for Tad. So that was Donna Murphy. I'm not totally losing it.

That would have been sweet. Wasn't one of the dead babies given the name Charlotte at one point? Or am I making that up?

Thanks. I wasn't 100% sure. I guess Skye's mother was dead before Skye came on the show. Sometimes I wanted all these dead, manpain women who existed entirely offcamera, like Lottie, to rise from the dead and roam Pine Valley. Given the Orpheus plotline, I'm half-surprised they didn't.

Thanks. They did Hunter Tylo no favors with this hair color (or she did herself no favors). The scenes with Matt seem stilted, with bad dialogue ("it's not you, it's me"). They have no chemistry and he looks crazy-eyed. Cecily is a lot of fun as a bitch. Her friend seems a little loopy. Julie is another one with awful hair and makeup. Nina looks great in those crazy patterns and colors. I think it's the contrast to her hair and skin tone. I wish she'd worn this stuff more often. It's striking. Cliff "dies" on that plane, via plane crash, right? I'm surprised that Myra was so happy for Palmer to marry Natalie. I guess that changed later on. Joanna wasn't Skye's mother, was she? Joanna's such a weird character. I wish they'd brought her back later on. I wonder if she will have any interaction with Stuart or Adam around this time.

That's strange about Charlie, as he was a prominent character at this time. I'd say the scab writers were wary of making waves but killing Jesse would suggest otherwise.

I thought her father was upset because she outed things about him in her book without his permission.

People who were watching will know more. As far as I can remember, the main stories were Silver's death and the coverup, and then Jesse being shot to death (which supposedly Agnes Nixon was not happy about - I guess Darnell wanted to leave but that wasn't what she had planned for his exit). There are some clips at Chip Albers' channel which seem to be around the time of the strike, where his character (who later, post-strike, ran down Laura Cudahy while drunk driving) is flirting with Cecily, who uses him to try to help her out. They're sometimes joined by Hillary, whom I hadn't even realized was still on the show at that point. (I guess she left soon after) One clip had a hot fantasy of him with Cecily.

Thank you. Another beauty shot. This one sums up the importance of those types of shots - they add to the story in a quiet way (Natalie checking everything in her apartment, clearly worried about being attacked). I think they missed a trick by writing out Silver so soon after this (was that always the plan or was that the strike?). She's terrifying in those scenes before and during her talk with Natalie. She's able to play the scared victim yet show us the malice underneath. So Ross also left some brokenhearted woman behind in Pigeon Hollow (a la Palmer)? Were they talking about Elizabeth, Julie's mother? I think they said "Hope." The guy who wants revenge against the Chandlers is a little too obvious in his evil-ness, but he's genuinely frightening. Even with all the scummy things he did I can see why Ross was popular. Bob Gentry is very strong in the role. I love the Donna/Natalie friendship. It just works, somehow. Was the woman flirting with Travis some type of Barbara prototype? Oh wait, Barbara was already on the show. I guess she reminds me of Barbara, somehow. I wonder where they were going with her. The whole "red meat" conversation with Jack was amusing. I thought she was going to jump his bones. The woman playing Ross' therapist looks so familiar to me. Is that Donna Murphy? Either way I'm pretty sure she had a bit role on AW not long after this. Thank you again. This is actually better than I'd expected. I guess the worst of the strike started in summer.

Love the tension and anger between Kim and Lisa here! It's so believable. Lily annoying me here...again.
