I watched Passions today, and Fancy was attacked again. Laying on her bed, the attacker was straddled over her body, punching her in the face and holding her down.

Y'know, I'm all for gritty drama. The more realistic, the better... even if it's painful to watch. And in real life, there are brutal rapes. However, they're not showing the parts of the story that they should be showing for an issue that's so sensitive. Rather than it being a story about a rape and how Fancy is dealing with it inside (feeling violated, used, etc.) it's only being used as a plot point. The focus of the story is "who's the mystery attacker?!" rather than Fancy and her dealing with what's happened to her. And as a way to keep viewers 'on the edge of their seats' and wondering about the identity of the attacker, JER has had Fancy attacked day after day after day after day, while the focus continues to be on all the wrong things. Meanwhile, all the other characters involved believe that Fancy is going crazy or lying, and everytime she starts to doze off to sleep (in the same bedroom, mind you... I'd have chosen a new room to sleep in LONG ago!) she's attacked again. It's past the point of ridiculous and now it's just offensive. It's being played now as more of BDSM fetish than an attack/rape scene. And nobody will ever convince me that JER doesn't have some strange sexual fetishes, because he has a wild obsession with having people raped or sleeping with each other when they're not in their right mind. On today's episode alone, we had Fancy attacked and punched repeatedly square in her face while being held down on her bed and Theresa/Ethan having sex when they weren't in their right states of mind. He did it on Days all the time as well... John/Susan, Sami/Austin, Carrie/Lucas (round one), Bo/Billie, Shawn/Belle... the list goes on. What's his obsession with characters having sex when they're either drugged or hallucinating? And what's his obsession with RAPE?

Fancy getting PUNCHED in the face today was the last straw. It went from borderline insane to just flat out unacceptable.

      I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.

      Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much.

        Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year.

      Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go.

      The Madonna Thread

      By Maxim · Posted

      Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.
