DRW50

She acts so much like Ashley there.

I thought this story sucked, but I can't deny this sequence is impeccably filmed.

I think we would care here, but I went to some hard left sites, like Splinter, to see what they said, and all they talked about was how worthless Democrats are and how none of this mattered because Democrats are so weak. I genuinely believe a lot of people on the left are hoping Trump gets reelected.

They would, but no one would care. No one cares about anything Trump or his people do. Society is just too numbed to feel anything now, beyond the media outrage of the day.

I'm sorry for her loved ones.

I don't think they're victims either, but if anyone wanted to try to make him look like one, this wasn't a bad way to go about it.

What I mostly mean was I don't know why this was not checked before the article was published. You have a story based on details and memories of all these other people, not her, and then the content involving her is added after the fact, in a way that discredits or at least smudges the original story. Everything about how this story has been handled feels like deliberate sabotage to me. And it just made any real move against Kavanaugh even more difficult.

This story seems to be falling apart already. Somebody botched it. https://thehill.com/homenews/media/461530-new-york-times-issues-correction-on-kavanaugh-story

I had to go to the channel and put in Renee 1987.

A few other clips with Phyllis.

I don't think there's any chance of him resigning or being impeached. The only chance of stopping him was if Republicans had any moral responsibility. They didn't. And the NYT bringing this up a year later and going out of their to make the woman look bad just shows how complicit that paper is.

Thanks. She was a natural. That doll keeps giving the side eye.

Oh good. I hoped you hadn't. I never knew she did commercials so it was a nice surprise for me too.

@vetsoapfan I thought you might like this. I found it in a longer reel and made a clip of it.

@AT1980 thank you so much for the 1975 episode. I just got to watch it. Wonderful. Such beautiful and emotional drama. By the end of the decade, the subject matter of a woman coping with the loss of her sexuality and a man's desire had become the subject of parody (Bea Arthur lampooned it in a controversial SNL spoof on "First, You Cry"), but at this time it was still very novel. It's done with great tenderness here. There's something about Bell actors at their best - they manage to make hog wild melodrama seem both extreme and also grounded in reality. Would you mind if I clip a few of the commercials in this (if no one else has)? I saw Jerry Lacy, and Dorothy Stinnette...the woman in the Sine-off ad was familiar too.

I'm surprised it was that long. Some celebs get a day.

I haven't watched the debate, but I read that Castro went for the jugular. I wonder if someone promised him a position, as he's going nowhere fast.

I think he's trying, and failing, to do the whole "as a parent of a child" boilerplate speech.

You know Melania doesn't give a [!@#$%^&*] about vaping. I read that "edgy" comedian Bill Burr is attacking Michelle Obama for his latest standup special and we're all meant to be amazed and in disbelief at his bravery. Never mind that 8 years were spent calling her a terrorist, a socialist, and attacking her (and her husband and children) in the ugliest and most racially charged terms.

Thank you for the rundown, @sivad40 . Fooliani put a 9/11 propaganda tweet. Not going to post it, but I'll just say I'm glad so many people ate him alive in the comments.

I read about this yesterday. I was shocked. I think, along with others, I assumed it was meant jokingly until video came out. Not that it really matters, but I thought the actor had a lot of potential and Ellis could have been the solid, mostly likeable, long-term character Emmerdale needed. This is the third ugly incident in a year, after the accusations and trial against the actor who played Daz (which I believe he was recently found not guilty for), the sacking of the woman who played Manpreet's daughter over racist tweets. Four if you count all of that mess with the actor in Victoria's rape story. The show is becoming a real mess behind the scenes, similar to what was going on a decade ago with actors being sacked and suspended year after year. At least back then the onscreen quality was stronger. Not that that has anything to do with this, but

Bolton has always been temperamental and too much of a burden for anyone to bear, but I thought he would be able to keep a lid on it enough to get to attack Iran, his longtime dream. I guess Trump was too much even for him. Astonishing. Anyway, tonight is the special election for NC-09, the seat left unfilled because of voter fraud (on the GOP side). It's a Republican-heavy district, so the Republican (Dan Bishop, whose main accomplishments are the "bathroom bill" and shoveling money at extremist app Gab) should be able to win easily, but wait for the media to do backflips if he does, telling us that the Republicans are back and "real" America loves Trump and this is awesome and takes away from all the constant terrible problems Trump is tied into.

Cameron has become one of the main faces of Hallmark in the last decade - he's probably more famous for that than he was for AMC - so I suppose this really is big news for many. I'm sorry to hear what he's going through and I can only give my best thoughts and wishes to him and to his family.

Is this Faith Catlin in the Mr. Clean ad around 2 minutes in?
