That is sloppy. An egg donor and sperm donor is too much for one story. Now, if it were two separate stories, and two separate character orbits, and this is interconnect both, I could kinda buy it.

I'm so out of the loop. What is this Abby story?

Was Bill Bell writing this btw?

I'm sure this is more of a question for @slick jones or Jason47. When was Sister Mary Moira first introduced? And I remember seeing an episode in which the three of them were together and said, "Where the Banks' Triplets". When was that, approx?

Alarmingly realistic.

I'd sure like it if he were shoved down my throat! Te he he!! What do you mean by that kind of contract? I feel it's that these actors are playing out their contracts.

All of that seems so riveting.

I know sh*t. So, what was the situation with her and David?

What years? And why did she block it out?

Didn't Bell write a storyline similar to Lori/Leslie on Y&R with a tell-all book but with brothers? If so, what exactly happened?

Does anyone have the scene/episode where the turkey baster was inserted?

How is Brash/Sassy anachronistic?

When did Monty/Marland first air? And what were the ratings before Luke raped Laura?

Any examples?

Can anyone provide examples of Riley with Julie and the other DOOL characters along with examples of Malone with Tina?

I'd hope that the atmosphere would remain intact. Have the same 'charm' but with contemporary issues. When shows did stories about racism, it was usually backdrop against towns like Peyton Place. And so, have the backdrop look near identical, down to the same music, but, say, a Muslim family facing racism. So, idyllic but old fashioned in background but including modern problems. And I wouldn't add any tongue-cheek sh*t that a lot of writers would add.

What book is Susan Lucci reading from?

I've always has mixed emotions about that story TBH. I decided to watch the SL just as Janet was introduced and I'm currently at the point in which Janet kissed Trevor. It feels as if Janet could have gone in a myriad of other directions. For a split second, I was thinking that a Pygmalion story with her and Adam would have been interesting (had they not reformed Opal with Palmer). I do like her general awkwardness that is barley on the edge of insanity and I feel that, at this point, she could have been a good long-term character. Basically a female Stuart. Hell, on that note, Janet/Stuart (before) we realized how nuts she was? They would have been a good younger version of Phoebe/Langley. (And now I can't get the image of them two on a double date out of my mind). It could have been a really good story about mental illness. That said, at least Natalie resented Trevor for going through with the wedding. So, the show at least acknowledged that this was out of the realm of reality (in some weird way).

Who is WR?

That is the perfect description (granted, she did create the show).

I bet you 10.00 they are going to promote her to a higher position. I'm sure this is to get her used to the feel.

I read the first few posts just now. I strangely hadn't heard of this show and I'm surprised that a show on CW is actually good. After a while, I stopped watch Dynasty and Riverdale. Both seem like dumpster fires now. Granted, I did like the superhero shows but I kept getting too many erections so I had to stop watching them. I might give this show a shot though.

Did you see the video I just posted? And what is sad is that I would pull similar stunts. Just for laughs though.

I got that video from a 1972 David Frost Special. It was a great special, actually and what Bev said about Ruth applied there until the second half. The first half featured only actors (Ruth W, Don Stuart, Mary Stuart, Eileen Fulton, and Jim Pritchett). The 2nd half included Irna Phillips and Agnes Nixon. Yeah, Irna in the same room with Eillen and Mary. That was great tbh and when Irna walked in Mary turned 7 shades of green. At the start of the segment, Irna stated: "I sometimes wonder why we have mediocre shows. Now I know. They (She faces the actors and waves her arms at them) don't know what they are doing!" And the whole time she called Eileen Fulton "Lisa". That said, Eileen (literally) poked Irna as she spoke just to ruffle her feathers.

Yes/No. I am legit wondering who that woman is. It's clear she is related to Travis/Jackson and I'm curious on why they aren't southern. I kinda wish the show had some large southern family like the southern family on "Auntie Mame" with an over-the-top southern matriarch. That was a great interview and I believe her about Ruth.
