I disagree! While she was FAB as Kristen, she was equally fab as Susan. She actually said in an interview that people asked her who the actress playing Susan was, and I can see why. Kristen was a gorgeous put-together spinach salad-eating woman of the nineties. And Susan was a fat buck-toothed Elvis-lover from the south. Whenever Susan and Kristen had a scene together it was pure heaven. How could the same actress be playing such polar opposites? omg it was amazing.

Mary Moira was a little too over-the-top, but hell in was 90s DAYS, it's allowed. And who can forget that legendary scene... Kristen: Who's he? Mary-Moira/Susan/Thomas: He's our brother. We're the Banks triplets. rotlfmao.

Not overrated in the least. Legendary. Classic. As good as soap operas get.

Your entire post makes me grin from ear to ear.

I agree that she was fabulous as Susan, too. What I meant to say was that I could understand how someone else might think it was over the top, compared to Kristen. Personally, I loved her as Kristen and Susan, both. She was wildly entertaining in two entirely different ways. It's not often that a daytime actress will get ugly. You know? Many try to keep it pretty... so when they cry, they don't let the snot fly... and so on and so forth. Susan was ugly though. Eileen had to completely surrender any 'sexy' that she had and just give in to humility. Not only in visual appearance, but her entire demeanor. I LOVED it.

I ADORE her. She's done nothing for the past 5 or 6 or whatever years she's been on Y&R. Laugh all you want.

Oh I forgot. She stole some of Victor's spunk and made a kid and married a cute guy and divorced him and did nothing else.

I want KRISTEN back!

OH WOW.

That gives me a GREAT idea for a serial killer movie.

Deranged man tortures his victims by cutting off limbs... then attaching them TO HIMSELF. That way, by the time all is said and done, every one of his fingers is a different person's finger (imagine... one black, one really tan...), every one of his toes is a different victim's toe, two ears from a dead man...

That would be wicked.

Deranged, but wicked. I should send the idea to someplace (but not until after I've copyrighted it for money)! That's CREEPY.

I, like alot of people, want Kristen back to VERY much, BUT I do not want Susan back. Yeah, Eileen was great and Susan was great, but the character isn't needed. And, I know we do have Elvis running around, but he's evil, which Susan would never raise him to be, so just kill her off! Bring KRISTEN, the Queen of the Nineties back, and leave the Banks Quad behind!

So many unpopular opinions:

Days:

1. I think Bo and Billie are the real soulmates of the show (Hope and her drama be damned)

2. Chelsea and Max were adorable and I think "Mabby" are boring

3. Drake Hogestyn is a horrible actor and I really find him very unattractive physically

4. They should bring back Carrie w/o Austin (I actually liked Lucas and Carrie together at the end - that will shock everyone no doubt)

5. I hate the idea of supercouples and the way the Days writers make them seem like there is no one else for them but their "one true love" and everything takes a back seat to the ubercouples

GH:

1. I FREAKING LOATHE and despise Bob Guza the Luza with an undying passion and think he is the worst soap writer of all time (JER is second to him)

2. I want Sonny and Jason to die and Steve and Maurice to never be on soaps again

3. I love Sam and Kelly Monaco!!

4. GH is the worst soap on the air by far

5. I hate and deplore Lizzy Boredom or Lizzy Whoredom as she should be known

6. I can't stand the way the soap magazines pimp GH and their actors and stories

7. I like Emily

AMC:

1. I love Zarf/Zoe and Zinks

2. Bianca always annoyed me until lately

3. Kendall and Zach are the most overrated soap couple!!

4. Annie and Ryan are cute together

5. I like Babe

6. I didn't hate the unabortion story like some people

B&B:

1. I hate Brooke and love Taylor

2. This show is boring

3. I think Thorne should be the star of the show instead of the aging playboys Ridge and Nick

4. I wanted Bridget and Nick together

GL:

1. I HATE Reva!

2. I LOVE Cassie!

3. I want Josh and Cassie to stay together (I think they have way more chemistry and sparks than boring old Jeva)

4. I don't like Tammy and find her boring and annoying

5. I think Nicole Forester is the best thing since sliced bread

6. I like Jeffrey

7. I think GL is the best soap even though it has a lot of problems

    • I remember seeing him briefly when Rick went to confront her about her blackmailing him. (I briefly forgot that Rick's sleeping with Claire at this time was a retcon - or her lying that she slept with him, whatever that story was). I wonder if he interacted with Kurt given that Mark Lewis later took his ATWT role. I tried to watch some of the full episode and it was all so alien and uninvolving. Roxy having a meltdown on that construction site for Mindy and Kurt's house that never gets built. Ed with Ross and Vanessa dealing with custody issues. Even Ross and Vanessa seemed flat, with Vanessa seeming oddly meek.
    • She did. It was during a party at Amanda's. She didn't literally throw herself at him, but she was subtly coming on to him and he quickly shut her down. Yes, I remember she not only made a pass at Justin, she convinced Jackie that he was harassing her sexually. She also tried to convince Sara that he was pestering her. Everyone banged Josh back then, LOL. Whoa. I must have missed a good chunk of this first time around because I don't remember Reva going to India.  What I recall is Harley being a nanny to the kids and then Reva driving off the bridge. Then they kind of toyed with the idea of Josh and Harley getting together but I don't think that ever happened. Yes, that all happens but I don't recall the tumor. Maybe that's coming up soon with the videos being uploaded to Spauldingfield. The last one I watched, she was planning to vamp Kyle while taking care of the pregnant Maeve.
    • I am a little disappointed that the show will be writing Jenn as in the wrong for her not liking Cat, when she's actually in the right.  Maybe if Cat was played by a competent actress and had a purpose, I would be more behind this propping of the character. And I can't wait for the funeral for John Black to be over and then we can proceed and move on.  
    • I'm not sure if the boy Carrie 2 seduced (I think his name was Ron) was still in high school or in college, but I remember he was very shy. I don't recall her making a pass at Alan, but she did make one at Justin, and she ended up banging Josh. I think there was an out of town business man too. Reva thought Josh and Vanessa were having an affair. Vanessa had just been fired by Roger, and when Reva took off to India, Van started helping Josh with the children. He then hired Van to work at Lewis. She would hear him on a business call with Van and think they were arranging a tryst. Or they sat too close together on the couch, so of course they were hiding an affair from her. It was very weird and blew up really quick.  It culminated at the party Reva was throwing at the club to introduce Dylan to Justin. Reva imagined everyone whispering about her and then she dumped a tray of drinks on Vanessa. When Vanessa hauled her into the ladies room to ask WTF, Reva accuses them of having an affair, asks if Van's pregnant, and then knocks her to the floor. I do think Claire had a tumor. I know around Valentine's day, Claire is making passes at a young businessman (or maybe even someone college age), and Ross (Van kinda pushed her at him because she's not keen on Calla). There's also a young intern played by Burke Moses that I think she sleeps with.
    • Congratulations to Carlos Alcaraz on his second win at the French Open!

        If the standard of play in the women's final yesterday wasn't of the highest caliber, that is not something you could say about today's final. It was absolutely fantastic tennis. 
    • When Barbara's letter was read (partly in Barbara's voice), there was commenting upthread that Barbara's voice is similar to the voice of Naomi's unhoused client June.  It did sound like her.  June is played by Jasmine Burke.  Per closing credits, Barbara was voiced by Sherita Bolden.  Still possible that they are connected. From our discussion on the May thread:  Looks and/or voices similar between June, Haley, and Tracy.   Tracy looks like Debbi Morgan. LOL so June might be connected to Haley, Tracy, or Barbara; and/or Samantha&Tyrell. I love that we don't know!
    • In the 1987 episodes, Mary has wonderful conversations with MJ and Cheryl. This is a realistic family with believable dynamics. Mary's ambivalence towards Vince is played nicely. Denise Alexander is so good here. I don't know what happened that the writers or producers just decided to chuck it all away. I don't FF these scenes. The show had a strong family that could have had years of storyline and they did nothing with them. I really don't get it. 
    • I can't speak for Sonni, but I thought Annie came off as neurotic from very early on. That's just how Cynthia Watros plays her parts, and the writing went along. I don't think Claire was mentally ill - they claimed she had a brain tumor, didn't they? I am never sure just why they made the effort given that she was leaving anyway. 
    • @DeeVee Claire is a perfect example. So many women came to Springfield as competent, smart, and talented professionals. Then they’d attract a so-called “good guy,” get dumped, and spiral into complete chaos. What always strikes me is how clearly it plays like a male fantasy—yet it was written and sold to a female audience.  I'm not a content expert, but I don't think cis gendered women fantasize about losing control of their mental faculties in response to an orgasm. Similar to Holly's story, it seems repulsive, because I don't believe women fantasize about becoming more vulnerable and appealing to men after they've been assaulted.
