That’s the thing I don’t like about this show. While I know the “Game of Thrones” exists on all the series to some degree, the BH ladies feel so cold and Machiavellian. Like they’d easily sell each other down the river under the right circumstances.

As much as Michael Zaslow was underappreciated aside from his much-deserved win, Beverlee McKinsey was not once even nominated for playing Alex after being nominated four times in a row for playing Iris on AW. Talk about absurdity. Friggin’ Marj got nominated for playing Alex. I guess they put all their eggs in the Kim Zimmer basket, which paid off with three Emmys from 1985-90.

They hate Kyle on Reddit too, and I feel such schadenfreude.

So funny to see him then looking like a nice young insurance salesman. 40 years later, he’s a leather daddy. All things considered, he’s aged well. OT: I can’t with how extra both Tony Geary and Robin Strasser were when they won.

OMG. STFU Teddy.

Thank you! I will say that’s what great about her area: people look out for each other. But isolating there can be a struggle. I think folks are scared, though, because people they know are being infected and hospitalized. It’s no longer some crazy thing that’s happening in NYC. My mom was so afraid for me up here, and now the tables have turned. Much of it is tied to chicken processing plants, which employ a LOT of people in my mom’s county:

So glad to hear he’s in recovery. I can’t imagine what that’s been like for him, or you. (Thanks for your prayers!) Also learned that a former co-worker was completely laid out with an illness a couple weeks ago and only just now was informed she had COVID from the antibody test. Thank you! Having an 81-year-old diabetic mother and a sister with lupus/kidney transplant in a COVID hotspot is scary, as I’m sure it’s been for all of us with vulnerable loved ones in hard-hit areas.

Thanks for the love, both of you!

A bunch of ATWT actors paid tribute to him when he passed, right? Michael Park? I know CZP appeared to love him, as he centered the show around Barbara. I don’t recall any of his so-called innovations, but I’m chalking that up to the feature writer not knowing soaps. At the time, I did like that at least he tried to ground Leah Laiman’s stories, most of which felt like half-baked gimmicks, in character (like Andy’s paralysis and Rose). He did bring buzz to the show during a time when it otherwise would have faded into obscurity. But man, did things come undone.

Thank you! I think the news about it hitting close to home made her take it more seriously (someone she knows who lives up the road from her tested positive), and she’s being very cautious.

She is as of now, but I was furious to learn that she and my nephew left to go to the local Dollar General to pick up groceries over the weekend... Thank you!

My mom just told me that her county in Mississippi is a COVID hotspot. Scary stuff.

I was just talking with someone about an updated HOTC, and lo and behold: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/head-class-reboot-bill-lawrence-works-at-hbo-max-1294344

Wow, Al Freeman, Jr.’s submission for Lead Actor must have been a doozy to beat that in 1979. These days, DAYS would blow their entire budget having that many people in one room.

Murray Bartlett is hot af, but that’s the first lineup that is entirely a “pass” IMO.

There’s been a cluster tied to gay nightclubs in Seoul, but people don’t want to come forward to be tested due to homophobia in South Korea’s conservative society: ”After Kookmin Ilbo, a local media outlet with links to an evangelical church, reported that businesses visited by an infected man over the long weekend were gay clubs, many other South Korean media followed suit, revealing not only the identity of clientele but also some of their ages and the names of their workplaces.”
