You're not the first person I've heard say that, I'm beginning to think that lynx (which is $$$) doesn't always film well. <object width="480" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xc54g2?additionalInfos=0"></param><param'>http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xc54g2?additionalInfos=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xc54g2?additionalInfos=0" width="480" height="360" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object><br /><b><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc54g2_amazing-lynx-coat_creation">Amazing Lynx coat</a></b><br /><i>Uploaded by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/latgal4">latgal4</a>. - <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/us/channel/creation">Watch original web videos.</a></i>

You know Alexis told her designer, "Now. I need something that will hold a deed and I need to be able to get to it rightly. Make it happen." I don't know why this cracks me up. He kind of looks like he derives some sort of sick sexual pleasure from the sight of it.

Any Capitol Fans Here?
Thanks Carl! at the quote from that guy, it sounds like he realized he put his foot in his mouth and he's paddling like crazy as he's just sink-sink-sinking. But I agree with him, the show had some wonderful sets, the most magnificent of course being the black and white Clegg living room and foyer with that impossibly tall staircase. I liked Myrna's personal spalon which also functioned as her office. A seemingly superficial but actually quite brilliant choice as she truly conducted business from there. Looking good and keeping up appearances (and meddling!) *was* her job. She was always on the phone (in the pilot movie she's getting a massage while switching between three different phone lines, this was the early '80s so this also meant three different *phones*), she even had a tanning lamp in there. Kind of reminds me of stories I've read about '70s Iris lounging on the chaise with a phone glued to her ear. I don't remember if Sloane lived in a guest house on her parents' property or if she had her own apartment/condo elsewhere. I just know that's not the Denning home, that's her own place where Trey came over in his raccoon coat he borrowed from Simon on GL and wined and dined her on Christmas with violinists and everything. When they got married, Sam and Myrna gave them a present. They opened the box, and there was a miniature of the Georgetown townhouse they (well, Sam ) bought them. Must be nice. The McCandless home had a similar setup, the stairs, kind of like the Forrester mansion, in beige and dark wood. The Dennings had a curved staircase with nutty Paula upstairs playing the harpsichord.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
That's what else I don't like, because so many people from D.C., especially those who actually have a family history there, not just transplants for work, do NOT have their heads so far up the ass of the Capitol. They are just regular people living ordinary/extraordinary lives, there's no need for the political angle. Thats one of the many things that makes D.C. seem stuffy and boring to outsiders. Like I said, they picked the wrong folks, they're coming at it the wrong way.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
It's not just you, it's boring sadly. Poorly cast. They didn't go for the most interesting folks in the city. They should have also tapped into D.C.'s large partying Eurotrash population who aren't in fact Euro at all but young new money Middle Easterners. They needed two or three black ladies instead of just one. Maybe a spinoff, The Real Housewives of Prince George's County, home of the largest concentration of affluent blacks in America.

Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)
Yeah, and when she did go to Hollywood, she went fairly "late", in her late 30s, mother of two. She talked about it on The Bonnie Hunt Show, how she thought it would be so romantic to take her girls cross country by rail with all of her friends at Penn Station seeing her off like, "What the HELL are you thinking..." The trip was a nightmare, but what a great reward waiting for her on the other side. ITA that she brought an undeniable soapiness to her primetime work, and I think she like Marj Dusay really soars when that soap divatude is employed in comedy. She was so good in Filthy Rich. It's very interesting that she subbed for Dorian in the Pinkerton years because it's easy to imagine how fabulous she would have been temping for the Strasser version of the character.

Kinda reminds me of that Bob Mackie Cher wore to the Oscars when she won for Moonstruck. Did VW and CK have something going on off camera? I know they did Couplets and stuff together off hours but something about their body language in that clip made we wonder that for the first time.

I could be wrong b/c they used that pic a lot in SOD, but I think this is the article where I first discovered that my Robin Strasser (Dorian) was the original Rachel which was one of those huge fun TV dork "a-HA!" moments. Like when I realized my Marj Dusay (Alex) was Blair's mom on FOL and replaced Carolyn Jones as Myrna. Some trivia about that picture... I always thought Robin looked extra sexy and exotic in that photo set, and she revealed once on her hotline that the surviving pics of her as Rachel (i.e., the ones Rauch hadn't managed to destroy, not kidding) were from when she'd had an allergic reaction to some fruit (I think mango?). They caused her lips to swell up and distort her features a bit.
