Lol at "sharted it up." They definitely retained the painted brick wall and fireplace and some of the furnishings. They replaced some of the slipcovers that The City used to redecorate Sydney's apartment to suit Tracy's taste. I'm surprised The City even bothered, the show had less than a month to go, IIRC.

ALL: Temporary Replacements
How many days did she do originally because she was wearing this outfit in the other clips I've seen. I believe she was brought back to temp on a later occasion as well. I seem to remember her saying that this is where AW noticed her and she was brought in to read for Felicia before they created Donna for her. As much as I love Linda and Louise, I would have loved to have seen Jane as Felicia and Augusta. I suppose it's easy enough to imagine.

I don't know if you all ever read/saw The Prince of Tides (SPOILER), but the family is ambushed and raped by a group of brutes. The mother makes the executive decision to not tell the father or the police and she and the children are never to speak of it. My great-grandmother was raped by a mail carrier, kept it to herself for years in her stiff upper lipped first generation eastern European immigrant way. Was that the right way, the healthy way? It was HER way. Until you are a victim yourself, you can't fairly predict your reaction to an assault. How many of us imagined how we would have handled those terrorists if we'd been on one of those flights on 9/11? Playing Monday morning quarterback with someone else's trauma is unfair, pointless, gross.

It doesn't surprise me at all. Been there, done that in my own family. No one wants to believe the worst about a loved one. But I'll tell you this much: Where there's smoke there's fire. And when someone gets accused of something twice, let alone in the teens, loving family recognizes what's really going on regardless of whatever front they're putting on for the public. Then again, my people have sense. Can't speak for every family. If you're like me and my relatives, you recognize that the person in question has eluded criminal punishment (at least until the next time?) and you do what you have to do to physically and emotionally distance yourself for your own well-being. I'm willing to guess this is what at least one or more of Cosby's daughters and other relatives are doing.

What Are You Listening To?
I'm late, but that Eydie Gorme sure could sing. Her, "I (knows)" starting at 1:10. :-) http://youtu.be/B9qu_o0laLs

Good looking out! Can't remember the last time this show was "can't miss". It would be such bull if they did one of those abbreviated hosts segments and Whoopi is backstage. I don't think that'll be the case though. The producers would demand her potential devil's advocacy.

I agree that those shows are great, but if the courts can't touch him, the syndicated powers that be and the court of public opinion can, and many won't award him any further by lining his pockets on the merits of his good work. Grab the dvds while you can.

Years ago, I wrote a treatment for an AMC/The City crossover s/l with a young man financially provided for by Sydney Chase who was the son of her chauffeur Samuel and Silver Kane. I later had an idea for the boy and his grandmother, Goldie, coming Pine Valley to stir the pot and settle some old scores, and Goldie and Vanessa Bennett would have had a comical snarky frenemy relationship going back to their days in Hollywood being two-timed by Eric. ANYway... I wonder if the show was too invested in doing *big!* stories for Erica to ever concern themselves with bringing on a bunch of relatives for her. Of course she had domestic type drama with her parents and siblings, but it wasn't until her girls were grown that you saw Erica truly sharing the spotlight/playing support in family storylines.

This makes me want to learn more about Camille... first hand accounts of her character, how she spends her days. I'm just curious to know more about the woman for the first time in what, thirty years, of knowing who she is. A blind eye stand by your man type, utterly clueless for years, fully aware and unafraid to bust his [!@#$%^&*] in private but hung in there for the kids and security...?

Late '88/early '89, several months after Bianca. I guess Michael and Molly have that in common, never being brought back to the canvas as tweens. I suppose it had to be Molly OR Shawn... just how horrible could Barbara have been? I'll never forget Erica saying, "I don't even like the NAME Barbara." I remember Cliff's big back from the dead return in South America. That's the first time I saw a soap actor do something Methody like grow his scraggly facial hair out.

The View
I guess. Perfect dose of Barbara. Once every (other?) season. She looked good though. Well-rested, and the most naturally rejuvenated she's looked in a long while.

LOL @AMS' small font for the K0la B00f of sitcom dads. Wow, never heard of Escape and Grit, need to go look those up. Come on now, all these channels, we can do more than just The Doctors.

No one can in good conscience call Beverly Johnson a crazy, money hungry, fame whore, D-list anonymous bitch trying to take a black man down, and sadly, I think that's precisely the combo it took to convince a lot of people.

Holy [!@#$%^&*]. This one will be a major game changer for many who were still on the fence.

I missed it. Please post if you know it'll be reairing. Michele looks like Phyllis Diller in that pic.

She and Michele both had those old-school rhinos. Concorde nose.

I think it was USA that used to air reruns in the daytime. I figured we'd never see the show syndicated again the way they pimp those DVDs.
