I remember him having teary eyes a few times, but not that often. The problem is I couldn't think of anyone when Bacon said that. I don't remember GL being a show with weeping men.

That would probably be Mart Hulswit or Don Stewart (Ed and Mike). I'm guessing Mart, although who knows.

Watch that WH press corps, who were so laughably sycophantic when their pets were in the White House, whine. I can taste their tears. http://www.politico.com/story/2013/02/obama-the-puppet-master-87764.html?hp=t1

I think these were up before and then down again, but they haven't been on in a while. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDiKB3DEC5w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lD0IiGsYB7w

I wanted to tell people that SFK has four or five Capitol videos on his Youtube channel (SoapFoxKirby). Please watch! Here's a few promos also uploaded on another channel, and part of a January 1986 episode. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpilYEvzq6w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmYit9VsdT4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06iAFaPX2Es

I think Michael had accidentally taken the wrong medication for his cold, and died. They did that on "Another Life", only the guy went a little nuts instead of dying.

I agree that the show needs more than just death and pain. I think they've done a good job of that this season, heart moments along with death and trauma. I think keeping Judith alive is also a vital part of the heart. It's going to be difficult if they ever kill off more of the long-term characters, because so far they haven't brought in enough strong new characters to take their place. I wish they'd kept at least one of the prisoners alive a little longer. I think when they go from place to place, it's important to have at least one person from that era of the show stay on for a while. I know they have to kill people off at least every few episodes to get attention, but I would have done more with Oscar or Axel.

I hated Bobbie's hair at this time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_yEO_M2WLs

I barely recognized Walt at first. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEdQSa_IH6c http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZsHs9w55D4

I think Mazzara has done such a good job with the show, especially since it must be a headache behind the scenes, and he was never on any hit shows for very long. I hope somebody snaps him up quickly (I also think he's somewhat attractive in the interviews, not that this is important). I wish they'd kept Axel around a little longer, since the character was so different from anyone else on the show, but I guess there was no one else they could have killed at the prison at the moment (the closest after him would be Beth, and that would be overkill for Maggie after what she's just gone through). Maggie's such a fantastic character. I especially like how they have her doing all this stuff without making her into some sort of fetish object.

I really wanted to see Maggie shooting more people. I guess I will have to wait to see when it's on the website. I missed it. I keep hearing people say it made no sense that the group wasn't better at shooting. I guess they had to fumble, for script purposes. I didn't like the way the show dealt with Merle's racism in his first appearance (basically this frothing bigot who beat and terrorized all minorities). If he's staying around for a bit then I hope that people will be able to stand up to him.

JP did you watch this season? I don't watch this show (not at the moment anyway, I might someday, I don't know), but I was wondering if you are as bothered by the "sire bond" stuff as some fans are.

I think CBS dropped it first.

Thanks to SFK. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Cn1ngKsc0s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eCGIU9gXL0

One of the problems in this story was they only did this to cause conflict when Ryan got together with her sister, Mia. They didn't care about Liza at all. And then having her get pregnant with Ryan's child, which also made no sense. I think the worst mistake they ever made with Liza was that romance with the dumbass who fell out of the tree, Jake. Most of her edge was taken away, and never returned.

I think that part of it was just that Marcy never suited those types of stories. To be honest I don't know who would have, as I thought almost everything they wrote for her from 1997 on sucked, but when I look at Marcy in that promo, she still looks beautiful to me. She was never suited to a big sexy affair story. That was never what made her a star on soaps. Even Cruz/Eden wasn't really about that. The only time I'd say she ever played "sexy" was her first year back as Liza, and that was relatively short-term, mostly phased out by around spring 1996 when she went to war with Tad.

Wow. "NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT TO ME THAN PROTECTING JESSICA!" Night and day. Erika does a good job in those scenes.

I thought there was something a little disturbing about the idea of this man dying and Al taking over as him and of course Marcie would fall in love with him - I can't quite put my finger on it, but I wasn't comfortable with it. Fiona did a wonderful job, to the point where it's almost painful to watch. As much as I had a few issues with Gabrielle's characterization in the last Heaven episode, seeing this stuff again reminds me that I'm glad this wasn't the last place we saw her in. Al yelling MICHAEL MICHAEL MICHAEL! was hilarious. I wish Luna had said MARCIA MARCIA MARCIA!

I still wonder if Mitzeee had any following outside of being one of Brendan's pals. I can't stomach the show but I might watch the episode where Amy takes the kids back from that thug trash ex of hers.

I still can't believe they went there.
