PSNS: Friday January 5


Recommended Posts

Is it just me who thinks this or what. I think Sheridan is actually somehow involved in Fancy's rape. I've noticed the way she looks at Fancy when she (Fancy) is talking and she had the look "GUILTY" stamped across her face. Damn that Sheridan. She's such a bitch!

Wow, could MCW be any more dead in those scenes? My god dude, show some damn enthusiasm when you're working.

Miguel looked like a pretty woman.

Ethan is a whore. Theresa and Gwen deserve so much better.

I still think Chad is gay....but whatever.

I have to agree that I think it's obvious -- obvious -- that Sheridan is involved with Fancy's rape. And sorry but did you SEE Friday's show?!!! Sheridan TOTALLY stole the button, the one piece of evidence that Fancy needed to proved she was attacked in her bedroom. The show didn't reveal it (for whatever reason) but the suspicious camera cuts they did to her while Fancy was searching for the button gave it away.

I like how the show was subtle with that and didn't show Sheridan with the button. VERY nice touch, guys!

I agree with you totally JSF. That woman TOTALLY stole that button. She is so guilty. It was weird seeing Spike there. I wonder if he did it.

Also....who was that guy sitting next to Luis' mother and sister. I think it was the sister's boyfriend or something? I dunno. He looks familiar.

Phoenix, I definitely agree that JER can pull anything out of his arse to explain Sheridan's behavior. Beth, chalice, mental disorder...anything. My point is that at least for now, he's writing Sheridan as being despicable and the character has only been 'bad' for less than 2 months.

I just want to add that he must know that Sheridan's action on Friday's CAN episode crossed a serious line. It has been the talk of many boards over the weekend.

At this point, only mind control and Beth/imposter can redeem the character IF he wants her redeemed. Multiple Personality Disorder or a mental breakdown won't be accepted by most viewers.

Wow, I would definitely need a screencap to tell you about this mystery man sitting by Pilar. I haven't heard of anything like it!

As for Sheridan, that's why I'm so in love with this story. I don't know if it's been done on daytime before, but I haven't seen anything like it: an aunt assisting with the rape and undoing of her own niece. In real life, yes, it's despicable, but for a soap, to me, it is VERY intriguing and HIGHLY entertaining, just because of how much it crosses the line.

Give me more! More!

How was the show subtle?

It's been so obvious that Sheridan is involved. Remember how calm she was after Fancy got raped? She told Eve she was sure Luis and Fancy wouldn't last. Before that, she was having a hard time holding it together but she was oddly calm.

Sheridan was also trying to keep Luis downstairs during Fancy's attack this week. It's obvious.

Passions doesn't know the meaning of the word subtle.

As for the Crane curse, JSF that is all true but it was never a big deal. Luis's "damn Cranes" line means nothing. He hated the Cranes but this curse that has all of a sudden become focal point was not of major importance. Yes, Tabitha curses them to suffer but that was it. It was not said that they would all become bad. It just seems like something JER pulled out of his ass to make things seem fresher and so he could do what he wants plot-wise and shock people and get away with it. He is just going to see how far he can take it and then come up with an out (with Sheridan it's Beth or split personalities) to save the character if he feels he has to. Just like he re-wrote Theresa "raping" Ethan (keep in mind I am a Theresa fan and I can acknowledge this) because he did not like so much support for Gwen. Then, he had Gwen witness Theresa's rape and do nothing to stop it to make it worse. JER needed to make sure Theresa was the rooting character and he was worried fans were being swayed to Gwen more and more. I never did but I know many that thought Theresa was going over the edge. JER should've have had to do that and wouldn't have had to if he actually wrote for story and quality and not for plot and shock value.

He will do the same thing with Fox., Sheridan, etc. He will find some way to get them out of what they are doing or will ruin someone else to make them look better if he has to. It's his way. Whatever the case, I don't want to debate this. To me, I don't think even JER knows what is going to happen (this is if he cares). I think it depends on how fans react and that will determine whether he feels a character needs saving or can remain on the path they are taking.

I don't think Spike is the rapist. The show is trying really really really hard to point the finger at Spike, which makes me think he's not the rapist. They did the same thing with pointing the finger at Chris when Phyllis was murdered and also Valerie dating Chad. I was right about the suspects being too obvious.

The show has had no problem showing us all of Spike's misdeeds so why would suddenly the identity of the rapist be hidden?

Spike refused to talk to Fancy in the cave during her attempted rape because he did not want her to recognize his voice. Fancy's rapist, on the other hand, constantly speaks to her.

Plus, I still think Spike will be revealed as being Eve and Julian's child. Almost incest is one thing but not this.

I think the rapist is a goon hired by Sheridan. He pretended to be The Peeping Tom.

Yes and I agree but I know we are going in the direction of him getting her out of it. It's JER afterall. The big shock would be for it to beth with a mask on or Sheridan with split personalities walking around going psycho.

He will need to do something because this is total and utter character destruction.

Sorry, Phoenix, but for "Passions" it was subtle.

WHY?

Well, for starters, Sheridan hasn't repeatedly (or ever) talked to herself and said things like, "Oh, Fancy, I'm going to ruin your relationship with Luis and bring you to your knees. But how should I do it? Oh, yes...I'll make you less desirable by having Spike rape you...and then we'll see if you are so gung-ho about having sex with Luis. Oh, Fancy...I'm sorry I have to do this but Luis belongs with me, not you."

You KNOW that's "Passions"' usual idea of subtlety, Phoe, so yes, I say that the show has handled this with superb perfection.

Once again, THANK You, "Passions," NBC and Outpost Farm Productions!

That's not lame or cheap!! Has the world gone mad?

Who cares? The Peeping Tom wasn't a character with rooting value, people, lol. I think it's a big "duh" that the rapist and the Peeping Tom are two different people. After all, one just peeps, one commits a violent act on a human being. It's obvious Sheridan hired the goon. There's nothing wrong with that, plot-wise. Sorry. In fact, I give Sheridan props -- she used a well-known harasser whom she probably heard about on news reports as a scapegoat for her evil scheme. Um, that's actually good writing because she didn't just hire the rapist. She made it connect and put it within context. Thanks, JER@

:lol: Look at you...you are so on a roll! No worries though...I'm on your side here...I was refering more to fact that they are trying to make it look like Spike, when it may not be. He knows something though...remember when he showed up at the church the night of Fancy's rape/attack. Talking to Chris he mentioned that Luis would have his hands full, or something along those lines. So, no, he may not have done it, but I wouldn't be suprised if he at least knew about it.

    • Sorry, there must have been a error, while creating the file. I redone it and it has audio
    • Tamara Tunie was on a local CBS affiliate in Baltimore the other day talking about a few things she had going on, BTG amongst them: "Beyond the Gates" star Tamara Tunie is in Baltimore for the Reginald F. Lewis Museum's 20th anniversary
    • Kobe/Long had their own template and pretty much gutted the cast. As soon as contracts were up established characters were dropped. They needed to free the budget for the new characters. Going back to Ann,I wonder why the Dobsons renewed her contract around 78? After her initial story she became supporting and they didn't seem to want to pursue a romance with Mike. Maybe the feedback was that viewers blamed her indirectly for Leslie's death. If Mike hadn't taken on her case etc. Did she decide not to disrupt her son's life? Seems odd after everything she didn't claim him back. 1976 continues... Joe Werner is just not bouncing back after his recovery as he should, and Sarah, concerned about his sometimes morbid-seeming depression, consults Justin Marler. They agree that Joe is becoming a “cardiac cripple,” and know this kind of overcompensation for illness and overprecaution can not only be a permanently depressed condition but can actually cause a setback for him physically.  Marler releases Joe into Sarah’s care, but it’s soon apparent that just being out of the hospital hasn’t done anything to boost Joe’s spirits about his return to a normal existence. Marler finally lays it out to Joe—the choice has to be his. He can choose to lead a normal, productive life as a doctor and as a husband to the best wife he could have, or he can choose to become an invalid and live on the outside looking in for the rest of his days, sentencing Sarah to the same fate. Realizing the selfishness of what he’s doing to —Sarah as well as the narrowness of the confinement he’s set for himself, Joe begins to see his preoccupation with his illness as the self-pity it really is and decides he’s ready to return to the hospital for a one hour shift each day. Sarah is overjoyed by his turnabout, but full happiness is hers on the day she overhears Joe telling a fearful patient that the world is beautiful and worth any. effort to get back into it. Steve and Adam are thrilled to learn that Cedars has been the recipient of the Levy Grant for expansion of hospital property. But they have learned, as they report to Ed, that the land they were hoping to build the new research facility on, the land immediately adjacent to the hospital, has been purchased by Dr. Justin Marler. Both Adam and Steve feel that Justin is expanding a power base at Cedars and the land purchase is just one more block in Justin’s power play. When Ed asks Marler why he purchased this particular parcel of land, Marler explains that he bought it with the express intention of someday building his own offices and facilities convenient to the major facilities of Cedars. When the subject of the hospital’s needing the land arises, Marler meets with Adam, and they agree that he should realize a fair profit from his property and that an unbiased assessor should be engaged to evaluate the market value of the land so they can agree on a selling price. When Sarah comments on the fact that Marler is to realize a profit on the land, he bitterly replies that no matter what he’s done since coming to Cedars to prove that he has changed. since she last knew him, she refuses to see him as anything but what he was all those years ago. Sarah insists this isn’t true. But Marler then calls Adam for a meeting and informs him that the land is not for sale at any price. As Adam begins to grow alarmed, Marler continues that the site for the new building will be his personal donation to the hospital. As Adam expresses profuse thanks and appreciation, Marler wryly notes that the tax deductions he’ll realize on this contribution to a charitable institution will benefit himself almost as much as Cedars. When Steve Jackson learns that Marler is to be elected head of the research wing that will be built on his property, he expresses the conviction that this was the exact intention of the gift. Adam, however, assures Steve that the donation wasn’t a factor in the hospital  board’s decision, they were concerned only with Dr. Marler’s reputation as a doctor. | After lengthy consultations and meetings. with the hospital  staff, Ed assured by the head nurse that her nurses performed commendably despite the added pressure of the train wreck, presents his findings to the hospital review board. Steve arrives at two possible explanations for the facts. Either Grainger, more active than usual due to the previously delayed medication, reached for the writing pad and inadvertently disconnected the breathing tubes, or he was in a state of extreme upset because of the delayed medication and.in the excitement a surge of adrenalin within his system caused his brain aneurism to start hemorrhaging. " Upon learning that the review board has ruled out negligence in Grainger’s death, Ed tells Rita, who takes her first free breath in a long time. But Ed hasn’t thought to tell Rita that he’s been in touch with Grainger’s attorney, Mr. Schafer, who, knowing that a woman was at the base of Grainger’s investigation, is coming to Springfield to try to find out who the woman - was who walked out on Grainger when he collapsed —in the restaurant. Peggy, learning that Rita’s “forgetting” to deliver Holly’s message was instrumental in their divorce ‘being finalized, tells Ed that Holly wanted to reach him to stop the divorce. Immediately after, Peggy is torn by doubts, wondering if she did the right thing.She confides in Barbara, who then discusses the situation with Ed. He tells her he and Holly have discovered a new closeness now that they are building their separate lives. Barbara quickly contradicts him: Holly is not building a new life. Barbara gently cautions Ed, saying, “People change, feelings change, and what seems right now may not be right a year from now. No decision is irrevocable.” Ed agrees with this. Now that Ben has declared his love for her, Hope finds herself apprehensive, fearing that she might be making a mistake, as she did a few years ago, when she was sure she was in love with her college professor. Explaining that she doesn’t want to make another mistake, she asks Ben to be patient, and he agrees. When Mike expresses his disapproval of Ben’s overstated independence, his need to be beholden to no one, Hope quickly jumps to Ben’s defense, and Mike apologizes. But Ben, surprisingly, accepts Mike’s assessment as constructive criticism. Later Hope, examining her feelings and desires, tells Ben she does love him and wants to belong to him. Later that evening, after they’ve made love, Ben asks Hope to marry him.And, delighted, she replies that she will. At Hope’s instigation, Bert has a family dinner to which Ben is invited, and Hope announces their intention to marry over glasses of wine. Mike politely offers best wishes while Bert thrills the couple with her offer to' make a Christmas wedding for them. Bert later tells Mike he must accept this engagement with good spirits for Hope, and later, seeing the joy she’s feeling, he gives his daughter his approval. But Ben finds another problem on his very own doorstep: his brother Jerry, who announces he’s left home after several bad fights with their parents. He refuses to tell Ben what they were fighting about. As Ben is showering, Jerry borrows his car and goes out for an hour. The phone rings, but Ben can’t hear it. Shortly after, two uniformed officers visit Mike at home to tell him that his late wife’s car has been involved in a delicatessen robbery earlier in the evening. Since Ben bought Leslie’s car, Mike accompanies the officers to Ben’s apartment. Ben curtly informs the police that he had nothing to do with the robbery and makes it clear that he feels they wouldn’t be there if he didn’t have a record and that his exoneration doesn’t prevent his being hassled like any ex-con,as they tell him he has to go to the police station for questioning. Hope tells Ben she called him earlier, and when he replies that he must have been in the shower, she accepts his word unhesitatingly.Jerry finally returns to Ben’s place and under questioning from Ben admits that he robbed the store,explaining that he has debts. Ben is now in a quandary,as he feels he must protect his brother but doesn’t want to be unfair to Hope. He tries to ease the situation by withdrawing $185 from the joint checking account he opened with Hope and repaying the delicatessen owner. He then sends Jerry out of town to stay with a friend. His relief at having solved the problem is short-lived, however, when Mike informs him that, despite the reparations, the robbery was a felony and the police will continue to investigate. Hope is badly upset to learn while making a deposit that Ben withdrew’a sum which Mike tells her is equal to the amount stolen. This shakes her belief that he _was really home when she called, and she goes to him, asking for an answer to put her mind at rest. Ben can’t betray Jerry and asks Hope to trust him, promising she will have the whole story eventually. But Hope can’t accept this; she needs complete honesty and openness in her relationship and without it cannot goon. She painfully tells her father that the wedding is off despite her love for Ben, and tells Bert to stop preparations. Mike goes to Ben, reminding him that half the money in the account is Hope’s and she has the right to an answer. But Ben won’t say any more and refuses Mike’s offer to represent him legally, again stating that he doesn’t need a lawyer, because he’s done nothing wrong.
