Pine Charles

LOL - Janet is hilarious here 😂:

That sounds AMAZING!! I do wonder, though - how are they going to fit all of that into just one hour??!! Anyway, SMG & Lucci?? That will be..... interesting (and awkward)!! Perhaps Susan will be live via satellite.

Well, I’m happy it played out the way it did. It fit perfectly. And Erica on the run/in prison is a very iconic storyline for the character.

So was Erica’s accidental shooting of Kent dictated by the actor’s firing, or was it intended all along?? Ruth explains it a bit differently. The character was written as one to be feared, but Ruth wanted the audience to love her, so she played Phoebe as a daffy, delusional society matron. The director told her she needed to play it mean, so she did. But she stated that the character was eventually allowed to become humorous again (as we all know).

I thought Kent was hot. LOL I loved the ''All About Eve''/''Gaslight'' storyline they did with Silver and Erica.

Erica ends up in the holding cell next to Janet....

Was that when she was being managed by Jason Maxwell??

Tempo was a national magazine, with offices in NYC. Adam purchased the magazine, and moved the offices to Pine Valley so Brooke could run it (she didn’t want to move to New York).

Erica’s first encounter with Opal!! It’s amazing how they eventually became BFFs!! 😂

I posted this in the AMC Tribute Thread, but I think it belongs here especially. I’ve never felt Dick Cavett was a good interviewer, but this is still interesting and a treat - Agnes Nixon discussing her writing technique, etc. This appears to be from 1978 (btw, Cavett would make a cameo on AMC shortly after this).....

That was the real Silver (not the imposter who framed Erica for murder a few years before). To answer your question - Natalie killed Silver. Natalie had recently been raped by Ross Chandler and was being gaslighted by Silver (making her believe there was a male prowler whom would rape her again). Natalie proceeded to stuff Silver’s body inside Timmy’s (her son’s) toy chest. I believe Palmer later helped her dump the body in a pond on his property (which Dixie saw while taking a swim; she kept her eyes open “for snakes”). And, yes - I’m fairly certain Broderick was the writer.

I would love to see Erica Kane getting arrested for weed possession. I guess that was her first brush with the law (before going to prison for Kent Bogard’s “murder” in 1983).. ??

Well, you have to be a bit cray to get a facelift to hold onto a man!! 😆 Margo was murdered, if I recall from my readings. ETA: OK, I guess Margo was not murdered; she left Pine Valley after attempting to kill Anne via carbon monoxide. No jail time?? Another question - was Margo Flax AMC’s first bona fide psycho??

Jason Maxwell!! Mona ended up murdering him, “blacking out” the entire incident.

Margo was a former model, correct?? I believe she and Erica bonded over the model thing. Regarding Mona and Dr. Charles - from everything I’ve read, there seems to have been an attraction from the beginning, but Charles turned to Mona more for comfort as Phoebe’s drinking grew progressively worse.

Where’s OLTL??

At first I thought Lauren Roman was Melissa Leo (who played Cliff's psycho-bitch sister, Linda)!! But she was on AMC in the '80s, not the '90s.

Hey, how could we forget this classic ''bitch'' moment on AMC (involving Erica, of course)?? This predates the ''bitch'' courtroom scene from '94 as well.

Actually, I remember seeing an earlier clip, I believe from 1989, with Natalie calling the character of Marissa (Rampal) a “bitch” to her face.
