  1. Does Katherine after hearing that her son has been shot: A ) Rush out the door and to the hospital B ) Clutch her chest in fear she might have a stroke C ) Yell for Esther to get her driver D ) Monologue to herself in her living room about who could have done it If you picked D you too have taste and class just like Katherine Chancellor. I loved that, Jeanne loved to wring the drama out of every moment. I loved that too, he clearly found her very delightful. In the 2000s other characters seemed more annoyed by Drucilla than not, it always bothered me because yes she's a lot but she's so vivacious and entertaining.
  2. The magazines lost all journalistic endeavors a long time ago and that's so clear in this podcast, they're just promotional pieces for the soaps. They never ask any interesting or followup questions, they're so used to being mouthpieces for the networks. I do enjoy the podcast though but that's in spite of the hosts, I just like hearing the actors talk about their history on daytime.
  3. First of all I'm very upset my "were been" typo was quoted. Secondly, I thought about them when I made that post, wondering how long they'd been on the show before they got their lavish wedding so thanks for the dates. I kind of miss when soaps would just commit to a couple and could invest in 5 episodes of these nearly brand new characters getting married.
  4. Such a good listen, thank you for sharing. Those interviewers are horrible though, they hardly ask followup questions, they just take whatever list of questions they had beforehand and make sure to get through them.
  5. This channel posted Edmund and Maria's wedding last night: It's kind of insane the amount of grandiose given to two characters who hadn't even been on the show for two years at this point. Also while pretty it's very boring. The most drama seems to surround Julia and Terrence's falling out at the wedding rehearsal. Also I didn't realize Maria and Dixie were friends.
  6. Imagine a world in which Scott Holmes played Walter White. I don't want to!
  7. And Tonya Williams was 32! They both looked like babies.
  8. At least she was meant to be aggravating unlike now when we're supposed to think the sun and the moon shoots out of the asses of the most annoying characters.
  9. Oy, thank you. Sounds like...well most of Sonny/Jason/Carly/Sam stories over the last 20 years.
  10. Thank you! Who the heck is Manny?
  11. Ahem, Daytime Emmy® Award Winner Natalia Livingston thank you very much.
  12. That JFP podcast thread made me curious about the GH train wreck (the plotline, not the show) and oof the way they wrote Luke is...something @ an hour and 23 minutes: Luke loved the hell out of his kids...what the hell? I didn't watch the whole thing because...lol, can anyone tell me why all of these characters were on a train?
  13. I've been imagining a return story for Dru and it involves making the twins grade school age. Lily can't be walking around looking 22 with kids in college. It's just stupid. Besides that they did nothing interesting with them as teenagers so it's very easy to ignore.
  14. Thanks for sharing that. Bryton clearly has a lot of affection and respect for Victoria. When he mentioned the "flavor" the Winters brought to the show he was definitely talking mostly about Dru, no question. The poor family has suffered with her absence. Like you said Christel was very complimentary toward her too, she talked about her professionalism and how much VR, Kristoff and Shemar taught her by example. The first 25 minutes are great, the last 4 are about Bryton and his dumb app with DG.
  15. That's how I saw it too. This was just the progression due to years of his control freak antics.
  16. I want to complain about Y&R's current music cues some more. This isn't a horrible scene, it's not good but it's not horrible, however listen to that music. It's like a damn lullaby playing under an intense scene. And that end EVERY scene with that same music. It doesn't make any sense to me. Same concept (with better acting and direction): Listen to that score! So tense and foreboding and then it crescendos in perfect synch with the action in the scene. It's marvelous. Besides that the slap was about 13 years in the making, so even if the music wasn't so amazing it still would've been impactful. Anyway, here's some trivia. Of the 5 episodes airing next week in celebration of the Winters family, 3 of them aired on a Wednesday...
  17. They cheated on each other so much. Nick cheated with Grace, apparently this intern (a kiss still qualifies), Phyllis and Sharon cheated with Diego, Brad (they only kissed, they were able to have sex the same night Nick and Phyllis first night did but Sharon felt too guilty) and Cameron Kirsten. I think Nick and Phyllis was the only full blown affair, the others were one night stands.
  18. It seems to me for how popular Shemar was he ever got story to match that popularity.
  19. I'm not at all a fan of the actors posing on the white background. It looks cheap even for the early to mid-90s (especially since comparatively GH and OLTL at the time had rock solid openings). The sketches however were GORGEOUS. If they went back to that I would be happy.
  20. 1) Yes, that's the porn intro. That was the first intro I ever saw and I loved it immediately, it felt like sexy primetime syndicated series lol. 2) Ashley was battling breast cancer. I assume Traci did, but I don't think Traci was much of a presence on the show at the time. 3) Sharon slept with Raul's brother and Victoria found out. She then told Nick. I can't remember WHY she slept with him though.
  21. Oh my heart! I'm gonna be in heaven, my baby Dru back onscreen for a FULL WEEK! NOTHING with ***king Cane. I like they didn't choose anything from after VR left (they know what's up) but it is bizarre that they jump from 1994 to 2005.
  22. Look at what we lost in KSJ and HT. Dynamite scene between two fantastic actors giving their all.
  23. I've always thought she wasn't much more than a bunch of tics and affectations. And her face on GH is always so shiny, like she just went for a jog. Seems like a lovely woman though. Brad was a playboy (he's slept with Nikki, Victoria, Traci, Ashley, Lauren, Jill and...I'm sure countless others) but basically a good person. Not at all like Bill.
  24. I'm so glad I didn't start Y&R with three grown women fighting over a man's sperm. Icky. Maura's casting was so boneheaded. They wanted her to be a "name" character but didn't want to put in the work so just threw Diane at her. She was 15 years too young and doesn't have the icy cool of Alex Donnelly, Maura is a vamp. That's what she plays and what she's good at. Diane wasn't that. Dumb dumb casting.
