ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
Goodness that is gorgeous and I bet it goes fast, if I lived in NY and ya know, had money I'd consider that a nice respite from city life.

That magical time when a black woman was on enough to be hated and loved by the audience in equal measure. What a time to be alive.

Most of their scenes on OLTL? What are we talking about here?

I SO wish they hadn't had that second episode with his character now. Because it was really stupid and he deserves a clean slate. Especially if he's going to be paired with Olivia, who is sure to destroy whatever goodwill the character has. I like Yani a lot, he's totally more in my lane than this guy but I see why they'd recast.

You're watching the same show as me. He's utterly bland and frankly kinda creepy, his eyes are open way too wide all the time. Terrible character, worse (?) actor.

Of course it was a Delta flight, they're the worst.

Forbes looks great. I always liked him and was pretty irritated that they killed off Nash even if I wasn't a fan of his pairing with Jessica (and look at what his death led to, the utter gutting of her character). I find it weird that he was even in a talent competition with ABC...he used to be employed by them?

No prob. He's reminding me of Zarf. He looks mid-transition and that's no shade, it's just what I see.

He looks a lot like him actually. More so than the other actors look like their real life counterparts.

DAYS: Behind the Scenes, Articles/Photos
This is so random but on this podcast, I Was There Too, which is about the little known actors is major movies, there's an interview with the actress who played Bus Passenger #1 on Speed. She's an actress by the name of Simone Gad, at one point during the interview it's mentioned that she had the very first line on Days. Listen here at 17:49.

He was in it and looked delicious and was by far the most sensible male character on that show in at least 2 seasons. I hope they bring him back.

John Brotherton (Jared, OLTL) is in literally less than 2 seconds of Guardians of the Galaxy.

The Walking Dead: Discussion Thread
No one wants The Walking Dead to last for 10 years. I always see this headline whenever a show is at the peak of its success. This show has a finite premise, it needs to end in the next 2-3 seasons.

Frank Grillo (Someone on GL, I dunno) has a pretty substantial role in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. I highly recommend the movie btw.

The Walking Dead: Discussion Thread
I think Carl completely understood and that's what disturbed him more than anything. He's (Carl) a "monster" too. I just realized that Carol, Tyreese and Judith were not at Terminus. Carol to the rescue! She'll get this handled.

The Walking Dead: Discussion Thread
It was *actually* good until that last line. I wish they allowed the hard curse words on basic cable, could have totally saved the scene. I so prefer batshit crazy Rick to sobbing and indecisive Rick. I want him, the Archer, the Samurai and the Kid to kick some ass next season. I love the little family Rick, Michonne and Carl have built. I was actually hoping Rick and Michonne's fireside chat would evolve into sexy times... I'm pretty sure these Terminus people are cannibals. There were what looked like flayed bodies on the ground while our group was running away from the Termites (btw I'm glad they pointed out that they were shooting at their feet, I was all ready to complain about what horrible shots they were).

The Walking Dead: Discussion Thread
I thought the first half of the season was far worse. Another 7 episodes waiting for the Governor to do something, snore. Not that this second half has been much better. I think they know what they want to do and where they want to go but the dialogue is just so spotty that the characters can come across like morons. Terribly underwhelmed by Maggie and Glenn's reunion and I LIKE them. It didn't feel as important as it should have. And they've been such assholes to everyone their with that I kind of didn't want them to get what they want, not that easily anyway (at least it's been relatively easy for the typical TWD shenanigans, they just had to walk in the same direction long enough). I really wonder if this show intends to stay in Georgia forever. Is the comic book like that?

I can only imagine how long the decision to kill Lizzie would have taken if Rick were around. At LEAST 3 episodes of him crying about it and yelling at the other characters. The foreshadowing thing Carl linked to highlights to me that this show is probably much better binge-watched. It's just that so much of TWD is people walking through shrubbery that it all sort of blends together week after week. I enjoyed the show more when I watched the first two seasons back to back.

I'm sorry you guys are reading/posting in obnoxious places. I don't see shipping wars on the articles I read about TWD. I know people root for Daryl and Carol, Maggie and Glenn but I've only ever seen people recoil at the idea of Beth and Daryl.

The Walking Dead: Discussion Thread
See I don't think the show is much character or much plot. The characters on this other than Rick, Carl, Michonne and Carol are EXTREMELY thin. And that's because we really have no idea who anyone else was before the zombie apocalypse. Maybe they're saving their backstories, maybe it doesn't matter in this new world and that's the point they're trying to get across. I feel like when the characters do speak they don't say much of significance, they don't talk about the things they should (I feel like this show avoids the logical livability of their situation, other than the fact that they do need a place to live, and I wish I knew why. It's the same way Lost (mentioning Lost again) quickly stopped dealing with the fact that they were on a deserted island.). They have the characters do stupid things and no one points it out. I'm tired of walkers sneaking up on people, it happens on almost a weekly basis. It's like they're suddenly stealth when the plot calls for it yet the rest of the time you can hear them like crickets at night.

The Walking Dead: Discussion Thread
Okay, cool, I don't think any large part of the audience is turning against Maggie. People love Glenn and Maggie far too much and no one really cares about Beth at all (I still don't think she has much of a personality, she's just potential zombie fodder to me). I've seen a lot of articles comparing this season to Lost, I don't see it. Lost was frankly more ambitious in its storytelling which just let to pretentiousness that turned me off. TWD is trying to be pretentious (long laborious shots of people walking with no dialogue and a backing track is so student film) but the dialogue and the setting aren't grandiose enough for that. I wish this show played with time more, if only to get away from the monotony of seeing the woods of Georgia every Sunday.

You know, Carl, it's ok if people complain about Maggie not mentioning her sister in 3 episodes. It's a valid complaint, there's no need to rationalize an oversight on the part of the writers. But I suppose Maggie could just assume that Beth is dead because this is Beth come on, no one expects her to live. So Bob, Maggie and Sasha ended up in the exact same place they were at the beginning of the episode except they're...happier? Okay. There's ponderous and insightful and then there's boring. I know Darryl's plan worked but it made NO SENSE to draw all those walkers to the basement. It just doesn't make sense. Who would think to do that? Lead them outside. Why confine yourself to such a small chance of survival? Is it wrong that Bob and Sasha's kiss grossed me out? Can you even imagine what these people smell like? And oh god, their breath.

Jill Larson is in this video about random strangers kissing each other for the first time (her stranger is a much younger man)

HBO's Looking
I don't mind a slow paced show if I like the characters. Unfortunately I can't stand the main character (though this latest episode was Patrick at his best, even if it felt like a student film).
