I agree that it would have made more sense for Nancy to be opposed to Duncan and Jessica's relationship, but as another poster mentioned upthread, Lisa was more involved with the two - or at least with Duncan - than many others were (which says a lot about how Duncan was integrated with the rest of the ATWT cast, lol).

At best, it was NBC overplaying GENERATIONS' historical importance within the genre. At worst, it was sabotaging a new show (that only certain people at the network really believed in) before it even had a chance.

I've said this before in the GENERATIONS thread, but what that show needed was something more contemporary (none of that ragtime [!@#$%^&*]!), with glammed-up shots of cast members in and around the city (yes, like on B&B, lol). That's what I love about the BTG opening: no one's giving a history lesson on Negroes in the Americas. It's just black (and non-black) people posing and looking fabulous. The way it should be.

"Don'cha know? BLACK PEOPLES WUZ DERE, TOO!!"

Seriously, y'all, it can't be more terrible than this:

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Jesus will not send you to Hell, because you were shirtless and performed a love scene on a daytime soap opera. If you're worried that being half-naked on TV will wreck your marriage OR your covenant with God, then you've got other, bigger issues to work on. Stop using God as an excuse to be a holier-than-thou moron. He hasn't the time for that, and neither does anyone else with even half a brain.

The thing is, if Frank and/or Ron WERE to launch an all-gay soap, it'd go through the roof, especially with the LGBTQ+ community; because, like it has been for many years with Black audiences, ANY representation is better than no representation at all. ICAM!!

My grandparents knew many entertainers who'd pass through our area, including Miss Horne. One thing I do remember them saying - along with the fact that Tina punched and slapped around Ike just as much as he punched and slapped her around - is that Lena Horne was stuck-up as the day is long and not as "down" as she protested to be. (Nancy Wilson, on the other hand, was very bougie, but way more supportive of Black people).

"On the next BODY & SOUL...".

I agree.

They always do, lol.

It was always great to see Tamara Tunie on "L&O: SVU," even if the producers often had to stretch credibility just to get her into episodes. (Most notable: the time she helped Stabler defuse a bank robbery/hostage crisis, with the sudden explanation that she had served in the military or something, lol).

The economy has been rough on everyone, @Vee. But seriously. I just don't trust Aiden and Tobias' relationship. Aiden's feelings toward Tobias are legit, but I don't think the feelings are mutual. (Don't ask me why, it's just a gut feeling!)

Or as I call it, "Blexcellence."

Every time I see her in that get-up, I start singing "Love's Hiding Place." (IYKYK). I love how she thought that look was '90's, lol.

It's an act. Tobias is really straight. He's just using Aiden for some nefarious purpose. Trust. Watch. Believe.

See, this is why I didn't bother watching KL reruns when they were first available on Plex and Prime. Because, the Internet giveth, and the Internet taketh away (and then stick it behind a paywall).

True dat!!

From your mouth to Frank Valentini's ears!

Besides, IT'S ONLY TUESDAY. We have THREE. MORE. DAYS. To see whether the same-sex, interracial couple gets a shout-out. So, please, I urge everyone, CALM. DOWN.

At this point, categories on the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards make more sense. And would someone please tell me why Eden McCoy chose to attend the Emmys wearing Morgan Fairchild's old hairstyle and nightie?

Unless it turns out that Tobias is only pretending to be smitten with Aiden, I really don't care.

To me, "Paper Dolls" seemed like two or three so-so primetime soaps merged into one.

WOAH!! This is the first time I'm learning that Bob Guza, Sally Sussman and Patrick Mulcahey wrote for this show! Thanks, @Joseph, for sharing!

And I remember when people accused HIM of faking his accent, too, lol. I had no idea Rebecca Hollen was from Stillwater. I went to Oklahoma State University (OSU) for my freshman year; and IIRC, Stillwater located halfway between OKC and Tulsa. In fact, for the entire year I was there - which was also the last time I remember enjoying GL on a regular basis - I also was able to watch AMC twice a day: once, on the OKC affiliate, where it aired on a one-day tape delay; and then, an hour later, on the Tulsa affiliate.
