^^That's really too bad. It was a cute little show from what I've seen. I think they went about it the right way, no one likes watching PSAs when they've come to be entertained, that stuff flies on a children's show, but not with adults. You have to have a "show don't tell" manner of writing if you're trying to get certain points across/sharing Christian themes. You don't want to hit your audience over the head with it. I was just watching a funny scene with Ione and that crazy b. Nancy and Ione has a line like, "The scripture says..." and it immediately takes you out, you're reminded that you're watching a soap with a message. I was just reading up on Edye/Eyde Byrde (Ione), who went on to be with the Lord in 1999. Had a couple of lightbulb moments reading her resume, some of those guest stints I knew her face and voice from like Will's nurse on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and as Beverlee McKinsey's maid in Bronco Billy.

I wonder if that's supposed to be Sam telling Tyler to, "Get the hell outta here! Stay away from my daughter!" and Judson shaking Julie, "Your mother ruined my life! Stay away from my grandson!"
-
Yeah, I don't know how many they did, I guess I remember them from the pilot movie. Just a couple quick black and white flashbacks of Judson Tyler being tried as a commie which Myrna falsely accused him of because Clarissa "stole" Baxter from her. With a little Barbara Stanwyck about the nose and lips.

I don't exactly get who everyone's supposed to be in this pic. I get Tyler and Julie in the middle and Julie bottom right, but the other pics sort of look like McCarthy-era flashbacks (which the show did). Like, Judson, Clarissa, Baxter (?) The girl running looks like she could be a young Clarissa, and I'm totally lost on the balding man holding the woman by the wrists. At any rate, the line about the scheming woman could apply to both Sloane and Myrna.

I like the way Dusty Springfield and Shirley Bassey sung it too. You'll Never Walk Alone - Jerry Lewis (how perfect for today!)

Ooh, that's a loaded question! Horizontal for the chest, vertical around the gut. But I prefer the look of horizontal. Jacked-up teeth or bad acne?

Love the novella idea, just wish I would have been able to watch it in real time. Once a week will be a lot easier for me to follow.

Wow, are you serious?? People not just like but LOVE Claire?? Hmm, well I guess she does represent a certain group of fans who aren't the 90210-type teen girls on the show. But she is so... yeah. And I see that she's not with Bieber-haired dude anymore. He always reminded me of Marty from Joy Junction: <object width="500" height="405"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/obiDOc2kM5Q?fs=1&hl=en_US&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6&border=1"></param><param'>http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/obiDOc2kM5Q?fs=1&hl=en_US&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/obiDOc2kM5Q?fs=1&hl=en_US&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object>

Claire Claire, I didn't know that they even made girls who looked like that anymore. She totally reminded me of the mousey girl in 3rd grade circa 1988 who got her big girl 4th grade haircut before school started ("OMG y'all, look at Lila! Go 'head Lila! lls") I think she's iffy as any sort of quasi-heroine/go-to girl. She's no Emma. Speaking of hair, I agree that Riley (I promise I will try to remember his name now and not refer to him as Gay Greek ) needs to cut that mop. There was a scene where he wasn't wearing a shirt with his hair and chest pubes all wet and frizzed, BARF. I'm surprised they cut Sav's Steven Cojocaru 'do, thought that would be his signature look.

The more you share sayno, the more endearing this show sounds. I get exactly what you mean about the black characters and the AMC vibe. Yeah, I was pretty taken by Babs in those clips, I was wondering why she was wearing that Beverlee McKinsey wig in some scenes. She doesn't seem like your typical actress, she really reminds me of my second grade teacher, or gals who would have worked in my mom's office in the '80s. You mentioned a rich playboy, I could be wrong, but it seems like AL resisted the temptation to go full-'80s and have Reaganomic, Dynastyesque characters. True? I'd also like to mention that many of your faithful CBN viewers are a lot like Ione, no coincidence that she was the show's voice of reason matriarchal figure.

That just gave me the best shot of warm, nostalgic, 7th/8th grade "life isn't hard yet" feelings. Nah, I don't have cable at ALL at my apartment but I have it at my house which is where I was trying to catch up the last two weeks. Admittedly, I was getting that impatient/frustrated feeling watching because I didn't know where I was in the story, not to mention the fact that I don't know these kids really. So *click* went the remote. How do I say this compassionately... the transgendered guy, not so believable. Her friend, the guy with the emo pout, he'd have been better cast. The gay Greek dude, it's like same [!@#$%^&*] different day with him, you coulda fooled me if there was an actual progression of story there, gay one day, back in the closet the next. Sav and sis, can't make heads or tails of it, argh, I hope this whole season and all remaining seasons won't be a wash for me. I think the fact that there are no familiar faces is what's really my deal here. I'm guessing since Emma's gone we don't see Spike either. Snake can't hold it down ALL on his own! Let Lucy or crazy ass Stephanie K. be somebody's embarrassing mom and I'm back in full force!
