All My Children Tribute Thread
I had a problem with all these storylines. I loved Cecily/Nico but I noticed a trend with Agnes young couples one or both eventually leaves and it’s because she plays them too lighthearted. Actors wanna play the controversial/gritty stuff which a lot of her couples lack imo. And the couples that get the real soapy stuff she goes in the opposite direction I.e. Ross chandler and Natalie. Jack was too much of a blank canvas and that’s why he never worked with Erica imo. They needed to play up him being the black sheep and change his profession. And I wish he was more mean to Erica and ignored her. Cliff/Angie: ummm.... I don’t think they needed Nina for this one. I felt like it was high time for them to go separate ways and choose other people. I don’t think TPTB was invested enough because of how quickly it was dropped. I personally wished they brought in some family for cliff who disapproves of Angie and make it more office affair and bring their co workers into the mix, wasn’t Jeff Martin falling for Angie right before Debbi quit? Angie was a single mom they could’ve made her a mini Erica Kane stopping at nothing to reach her career goals and feed her child. And maybe even a little Jaded for losing her true love. TBH I find Jeremy to be a very boring character but he was decent in his triangle with Erica and Natalie. I just thought it was kinda out of character for Erica to be advocating for her own sister to date her ex lover. What if Noelle was secretly falling for Travis and it went all the way to her giving him the baby boy Erica always wanted. And her cheating on Travis with Jack only for her Niece Julie to steal him right from under her. I wanted a couple of years of Erica being the loser and have to act from her jealousy and desperation, imagine everybody around her succeeding in their careers and love life while her’s isn’t going nowhere?! That’s an Erica Kane I want to see. Erica could have benefited from having family rivalries around long term, Kendal could have Been brought in later. This. I love all of this. Any good writer could have made silver work long term there was plenty of openings. They just didn’t give it a real try imo.

I personally felt that storyline needed to be given to Dixie. That Brooke/Adam/Dixie storyline came at the right time, it was time for a changing of the guard with characters and the mood and vibe of the show was much more serious too. I wish it could’ve lasted longer. This is very accurate. I never understand when this happens to shows and it happens a lot in television.

AMC so damn iconic they can now add the first set of twins in daytime history (swoon). He finally did a decent interview for AMC bravo! I enjoyed watching both actresses go down memory lane. Jennifer is a hoot Periodt, I just love her. That was so sweet of Francesca to come back on a mission to get those emmy’s for best show and Susie. I agree she’s sharp as a tack definitely needs a book, workshop etc. did anybody else clutch their pearls when she mentioned Julie Harris? I did lmao.

HULU's "Little Fires Everywhere"
It’s so riveting and very soapy. I’m on episode 5 and mad it took me this long to watch it. I didn’t like Kerry’s performance in the beginning I relate more to her now.

I usually don’t like his AMC reunions but I’m looking forward to this one. Jennifer is a great storyteller and loves to spill tea. And I’m sure Francesca has some great stories to tell of her own. The Kitty/Kelly saga was a big hit with the fans it’s a story I’m not that familiar with so I’m eager to here more about that and her backstage experience.

Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella
Agreed! The 90s was a incredible time to grow up in.

ABC: ‘All My Children’: Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos Developing Primetime Version
Agreed! Erica is much needed for this revival. I hope the show does well by any veteran character that decides to join the cast. The Hubbards have been the heart of the show since 2008, I always looked at them as extended family to the Martins so it makes sense. I always what you said about Brooke it was all so wonderful to see her in that light again. you know I absolutely agree with you about Erica. You’re right!!! I’m going into this show with clear eyes but I will need more returns than the Santos family, I never connected with them. I disagree about Anton being Chief of staff that’s Angie’s role.

I would also have to agree about AMC 2.0 being the best soap of the 2010s and the best the show had been in over a decade. I mean every storyline was clicking, the actor’s were all acting their hearts out too, loved the usage of vets. The whole cast deserved emmy’s for that year. Too bad Brooke’s Talk Tempo was just beginning to heat up once it was cancelled. She was finally being written the way I always envisioned her to be. This might be an unpopular opinion but I do not think Pine Valley necessarily needs Susan/Erica to survive AMC 2.0 proved that and year’s like 1994 with the tornado shown me that as well. I will greatly welcome her with open arms but she’s not the be all of All My Children imo. I contribute a lot problems with the shows last decade with them catering to Erica and her Girls and forgetting about everyone else.

Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella
I just got done rewatching this and it brought back so much nostalgia. OMG the music is just divine I adore every song sung. I haven’t seen this film since the late 2000s and what a pleasure it was. Glad it finally has a streaming home now. Loved watching that zoom reunion too, real ensembles are missed by this fan. The film industry would be a better place if more films were cast like Cinderella and Hamilton. Happy the cast got to have these moments. Rest I’m power Whitney and Natalie!!! Brandy did a Medley of some of the songs with appearances from the cast. Her voice has grown a lot since 1997. accurate.

If Brooke/Julia Barr isn’t on this show I’m going to be highly pissed. Here’s to hoping all the vets are brought back in a meaningful way.

This is very true. I totally agree with you, I enjoyed what little i saw of that storyline. I really wish amc brought Nina back more in the 2000s. So much more could’ve been done with all palmer’s offspring. I want a incest romance storyline. No Rape apart of it just old fashioned sexual frustration and tension. Amc was missing that forbidden element in its later years.

Thanks for posting the Lucci interview. I’m watching it right now. Yes I always thought Nina/Taylor was one of the great beauties on soaps. Sometimes I wonder how things would have turn out if they actually went there and let Palmer and Nina have the incest storyline. I wish soaps in general touch on it more.

Yes agreed and they all were delicious characters. I personally always felt a lot of AMC’s storylines and some characters had motherhood be the root and cause of things. Somehow fitting with the title name. lmao how come this is my first time seeing this. Amazing, T4p. A lot playlists have suddenly disappeared right before the Primetime announcement. I saw some post in those Facebook group’s.
