AMC: Monday

His contract is up in May. They extended it because the story didn't move as quickly as they had planned (is that a shock? :lol: ) so he signed for another 6 months which was back in November. I'm not sure if they will keep him on but considering how unpopular the Jeff/Erica possible pairing is and the fact that he is not involved in much of anything, not even with Fetus boy, I would tend to guess he won't be around much longer. JMO of course :rolleyes:

They can always let an actor go after those 13 weeks of course but Walt's contract is not up until 2008. . There are a few good things that will be happening that makes me pretty confident that he isn't going anywhere ;) I never say never about anything but I don't see J&E anywhere near over. I guess we'll all find out soon enough

I just watched my tape and I am SHOCKED.

I'm still trying to comprehend it.

Babe Chandler...Krystal's "babydoll" is DEAD!!! :(:(

This is so shocking. Never in a million years would I imagine that BABE, of all people, the new face of AMC, would die!!!

This is just so strange! I don't enjoy it at all!!!

Oh, God, help us!!! Help us all!!! :(:(

PREACH, amcfan, PREACH!

I keep hoping against all hope that somehow she'll make it, but this isn't "Days" and I don't know what to expect from a 'traditional' soap like AMC.

Babe, if you're really dead, I am SO starting a PERFECT STORM that would rival the one "Days" fans staged when they thought Marlena died in the '80s! Babe is that special to me. She is the new face of AMC and the young Marlena of AMC!! You CAN'T kill her off!!

K, you have no concept of who Erica is. The rest of us, do. Celebrate doesn't mean celebrate. It means, she wouldn't bow at Babe's altar. She wouldn't shed phoney tears, or spout fake priases. She wouldn't rub it in Krystal's face, but she wouldn't hold Krystal's hand either, and be all buddy buddy with her. Erica is not hearless, nor is she extremely compassionate, she's just Erica and she'd normally handle this her way. And that's not MMT's way.

That won't happen. She's going to be bowing at the [!@#$%^&*]'s altar. Crying fake tears. And saying words she doesn't mean. POD. And the fact that others agree with me, should tell you I know Erica's character.

As for amcfan_19 and my going to kill the fetus, :wub: I take no shame in it. And I wish for Josh's (as the fetus) death more then I wish for Babe's. :D

LOL, I'm a very normal, rational, level headed person, but there are two things that can get me going: comments about Josh that are not rooted or taken from the history of the original storyline or from someone who wasn't around for the fallout of this reveal, and people dissing on Erica when they don't know her. Learn about her and then hate her (most do, lol), and you an me will get along just fine.LOL Otherwise, this dance is going to happen quite a lot. :)

Bianca is Erica's entire life. Babe kept Bianca's baby from her for nearly a year. The real Erica would NOT be sad about Babe's death. As Kylie already said, she wouldn't laugh or dance on Babe's grave, but she would feel zero sympathy.

I'm glad KWAK thinks Babe is dead. Now maybe she'll know what Bianca felt like. After all, KWAK encouraged Babe to keep Miranda ('Bess') and not come clean with Bianca. Not like Babe would have anyway, but they're both scum. They let Bianca think her baby was dead for all those months. But we're supposed to forgive them and think they're misunderstood victims. Give me a break! Maybe I wouldn't be so annoyed if they didn't hog up all the airtime. I'm just sick of them! Good thing Janet's on, or I wouldn't be taping everyday.

I wasn't dissing you, just your definition of Erica, when I said "too much is sickening." I thought you meant she'd actually CELEBRATE, right there in front of Krystal and laugh it up like a royal [!@#$%^&*]! That would have been awful. I'm perfectly okay with her trying to fake it, or not even show much remorse, because I think we ALL know she doesn't like Babe. Just last week, they were going toe to toe. I don't think there's any question that she doesn't like Babe.

So that's why I question why we're so quick to attack her supposedly mourning Babe? Let's remember, this isn't an ordinary circumstance. I'd say if she's going to be crying, it's not for Babe, but more for the fact that she realizes and mourns that 'that' could be Binks or Kends.

    • All the time they spent trying to make viewers feel sorry for Chad only for him to not even last that long. I wonder if they knew Richard Burgi was going so quickly. You're right about Josie replacing Cheryl. On paper, this should have made sense, given all the ties Josie had to the canvas, but I did prefer Cheryl. There was something very synthetic about Alexandra Wilson.  I suppose even if she did have some fans they were just so used to getting rid of people left and right, so she was more collateral damage. As you said above I do wonder what the plans were for Peggy Lazarus. I think AWHP mentioned her once telling Peter that Peggy Lazarus wasn't her real name. Maybe she would have been another Carl moll... Rebecca Hollen never did get her due in her soap roles.
    • So true...Hackney might have had a story on FC with Richard being an old lover of his, but reveals herself to be a Cartel member and blackmails Richard with something into doing her dirty work  LOL. But of course Richard had his hands full with the double trouble sisters Ms. Jones and Ms. Braxton that season.

    • Cat herself will be a stumbling block all her own as she vowed to Chad to stay away from him, thus redeeming her of her crime morally. Classic DAYS would have them gazing longingly at each other at Doug's Place or Blondie's, while Liz is serenading the room with a song aptly chosen to represent their feelings of emotional turmoil.
    • From what I just recently watched, they were setting her up to go into future stories. She was Emmy nomination worthy in the material I saw. If some viewers did not like her, the character could have been rehabilitated after that sick storyline. It feels like they destroyed a character for fun and then tossed her to the curb. Spencer had chemistry with everyone. I'm just retroactively angry on Spencer's behalf.  You're right about how Cheryl was often forgotten and pushed aside and I would take Cheryl over Josie. I think soaps need characters like Cheryl. Characters like Josie are way too common. Josie always got on my nerves.
    • CBS was back in third place in 1994/95. That was the season CBS lost NFL broadcasting rights which also cost them several established affiliates in major media markets. 1995 CBS was sold to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. 1995/96 CBS was trying to be young and cool to compete with NBC and Fox, but it was an epic failure and CBS was once again in third place.
    • I tend to think that Chad will actually listen to Jen (this time). And that will be the next stumbling block in their relationship, which will open the possibilities for Cat to seek another member of their love triangle... To iterate my earlier thought, I am also not a fan of the person Melissa Reeves, but the character of Jennifer looks so chic this week, especially in comparison to Hope (and Gabi).  That blunt haircut is a winner.   
    • I think Cheryl was essentially replaced by Josie, and it seems likely that Lemay wanted to bring the Frames back into the picture and for a variety of reasons that it would be McKinnons who would make way for them. Cheryl didn't really get many layers -- she was pretty and kind and sweet and faded into the background so that Scott could participate in the AIDS storyline with Dawn. Looking at the AWHP, other than (not very) shockingly being in love with her mother's adopted son Scott, Cheryl apparently went out with Sam and flirted with much-too-old-for-her John Hudson and MJ's ex-boyfriend/pimp Chad. I know MJ told Mary that she had been a prostitute, but did she tell Cheryl and did she tell anyone about Chad's pimping?   
    • I feel the same way about Melissa Reeves' Jennifer. She just makes the show feel like home by her presence alone. I am perfectly okay with them coming in every once and awhile, which probably fits Reeves' schedule better anyway. Their connections to Salem are still there: JJ, the grandkids, Jack still owning half of The Spectator ... they're perfect recurring characters. All this talk of Jennifer being in the wrong regarding Cat is absurd. Jennifer is not being villainized in any way, shape, or form, she's just being allowed to actually be human, which adds odds to the obstacle of Chad and Cat eventually getting together. All inner conflict. Keep it coming!
    • Hahaha. Jean Hackney, Angelica Nero, and the Falcon Crest henchwomen were all straight out of a James Bond movie.
    • My hunch is what you've described. JFP is likely back working on transitioning the show to a new studio and embracing new technology for its production model.
