Repeating it... Won't hurt. I want 1979-1987 AMC in full. So many clips from this era I am seeing lately since I'm getting in love with the show... And I scream from how iconic all they are. I want this era in full. Please God. I beg of you.

What the hell??? Who did this?!!!

Why the hell am I saying Abrakadabra randomly through the whole day. This song is sick. In a good way. It grew on me hardcore.

Genius

Aaaah... This is making me excited. I can't wait to see it unfold. ❤️

Remind me to never use Google calendar from this day on.

Isn't this in the first episodes of 1988 or am I mistaken?

Thank you for this. I appreciate getting your opinion and POV, especially from someone who is not a newbie like me. I am still very green in the AMC world. All I can say is that this show has become my new dramatic love and it has outshined everything else that I was watching. I don't have any desire to watch anything else. Absolutely addicted for better or for worse. My husband has now complained about the constant playing TV in the living room and is not able to understand how I'm capable of going all night without sleeping. 😂 How can I rest when I want to see what will happen with Erica and Travis... what will happen with Brooke and Adam and that trash Dixie. How can I sleep when I don't know if Jeremy is going to leave Natalie for his mysterious ex wife? He is the type of man that always has to help some damsel in distress and sadly for Natalie, she is not it anymore. How can I rest when Barbara has a stalker? And you giving me this little tease about a Masquerade (I love things like that) and Agnes's return... Makes me so excited. ❤️❤️❤️ You are welcome. Of course I give all credit to the uploader. Nice little moment with RuPaul. 👄

Every day I tune it to see what is happening... It's like something from the DC comics universe. It's getting darker and darker and darker.

10 days till Im no longer in my 20s

Well... I haven't slept tonight and it's nearly 5 in the morning. I've binged watched AMC the entire evening. I have a few thoughts to share with y'all. 🐍 I'm done with all the clips and recaps period, binged all of them in one sitting! (two of the months barely had any episodes so I just read recaps and descriptions.) Overall impression of 1988 - started good, managed to hook me with Erica becoming a mother... build up around March-April... becoming really spectacular and then... somewhere mid-Strike May-June... Collapsed to confusion and missed opportunities. I especially disliked what they did with Erica and Travis. I understand it, but still... I would have given them more time to get as much bread as possible from their falling out. They had just began their life together as a married couple. And boom horrible issues and breaking up. Too fast. I also disliked what they did with Skye - turned her way too psychotic. Way too clinical... in a corner that she will have trouble coming out of. But overall - still great. I am very much in love with the show, mostly because they made me care for the characters... and I still enjoyed all the material I saw. I wouldn't have been watching for 9 hours straight if that wasn't the case. Keeping in mind the huge gaps and missed episodes I can't say I can grade this year appropriately. But I will give it a 7/10 just for the fun of it. Now moving on. I have arrived at 1989's doorstep and more precisely March 1989 where the first complete months are starting. I think from this moment on, with small exceptions, seasons will be complete. That's just marvelous. I already started March 1989 and I have a few things to say after the first couple of full episodes. 🐍 So... Right now the show has too many bad people in it. I am not sure if this is good or bad. Palmer the psycho controlling biddy, Adam the gaslighting perv, Barbara the Fatal Attraction bitch, Skye the lunatic from the madhouse, Karen, the conniving opportunist, Ross the rapist who we are acting like isn't a rapist, that creep Sean... Overall... Bad person after bad person. I think I need to breathe a bit. They just need to slow down with the crazies and psychopaths. LOL. Is there anyone normal in this entire town except Erica Kane? 🤣 The storylines that are going on - little miss opportunist All about Eve character Dixie is pregnant by Adam Chandler and he is gaslighting her and making her think that giving her baby for him and Brooke to adopt is the best thing. Jesus Christ. Brooke of course has no idea that her helper is carrying her husband's child. Let me say one thing - I like this storyline... But in a way it doesn't have that much stakes... Why - because Adam and Brooke have so many problems that this is just the cherry on the cake. If their relationship was more loving and had potential to last, then the reveal and consequences will be brutal. For now I just say to myself... Well, so what? But the story has potential. We have Natalie and Jeremy dealing with the fact that Jeremy has a newfound son - David... Who fancies Palmer's beautiful niece Melanie. Palmer of course hates that because he hates everything Jeremy. I like this somehow and I especially like the Lanie actress. So much potential. And let's get to the most interesting part. One year after Erica and Travis married they are already up for a divorce and their whole relationship is ruined. Travis acts like a completely different person now and it seems he is very drawn to the psycho Skye. While Erica still wants her husband to forgive and forget. I don't know if this is possible after they damaged their relationship to that point. Thats where I am at. I think I am watching DePriest episodes, so I am scared. This woman has produced some of the most off putting soap opera stuff I've seen in my life. We will see. I also can't wait for November 1989 and my first Ever taste of Agnes Nixon. ❤️

Nealy finishing up the August compilations and recaps - Brooke and Adam's marriage is just the most toxic relationship I've seen in my life. Why does Brooke demean herself with tolerating this beast of a husband. This month has the least material... so I'm continuing with September.

Today I saw something that made me go back in time. Years ago I was defending a colleague of mine... defending her from... another colleague - a bully woman who every chance she had tried to demean her and humiliate her. We had situations in bars when that girl would just start crying from all the jokes she heard about herself... and I would intervene and tell that other one to stop it and that she is actually the one that is looking awful in the situation. I went through hell and back (dealing with a drunk bully narcissist is hell) to defend her time and time again, because she seemed very naive and not able to stand up for herself. But even then I sensed a strange vibe... that she continued putting herself in situations where she would meet or talk with that other woman. It seemed strange that they always were in some sort of confrontation and always the same dynamic - one being a bitch, the other one silently taking the emotional abuse. Fast forward nearly 10 years later and that woman I defended years ago... is not in touch with me... but she is still around that bully that I'm sure continues humiliating and demeaning her. She even comments on her facebook posts and pictures and cheers her on like a dog. I know their dynamic, so I'm sure that nothing has changed. I also know the bully woman's M.O and I bet she is even worse now. Lesson learned - not everyone who seems like they need defending or help... actually wants it or appreciates it. There are people who are perpetual victims and they like putting themselves in these situations. With the passage of time, they not only forget the good you've done for them and how you had their back, but they prefer the bully over you any day, any time.

Appalling! Disgusting!

Thank you for the opinions, guys. I am feeling the same way. I am already disappointed that the Pamela storyline did not go the way I wanted it to, it just lost steam and direction. And I really REALLY miss Silver. This was one of the characters I bonded the most with. There is a clear shift somewhere around mid to late-May... it just became apparent it's not the same writer anymore... Now I'm entering into August, believe it or not, since May, June and July were mostly compilations and recaps videos. I went though them like hot bread yesterday and some of it I skipped due to horrible quality and just read written recaps. The rest of the 1988 is going to be like this - 4-5 hours of compilations and recaps a month... and the really full months and years start with March 1989. I checked in my hard drive, so I'm happy that it's not going to be like this for long. Anything I feel like it's not covered in the episode compilations I have... I try to find as written recaps and so far I don't feel like I've missed anything that important. But yes, I want to go past this recap-period as fast as I can, so I can go back to enjoying complete episodes.
