DO IT ALEXA, please go, I wouldn't mind Justin staying, cause I'm liking his Jamie, but Alexa needs to go ASAP! The Babe Carey hour is dragging the show down and ratings are starting to reflect it.

IF you ever do one thing in your life, Alexa, PLEASE don't listen to AMC Zendall Fan.

DON'T do it.

Stay in Pine VAlley.

You are loved!!!!

Babe is love!!!

Kendall is on alot, but she's not in every single freaking storyline.

Even when Babe is not on she's mentioned. We could make a drinking game out of how many times her name was said in yesterday's episode alone

Kendall doesn't miss it by much. Like I said I want both put on a lot less. I hate Zendall. I hate Babe/JR together and I hate Babe/Josh together. To me AMC's biggest problem is the fact that they let these 2 ladies be the whole focus of the show and let everyone revolve aroudn them as if they are the sun.

Sadly all of the other ladies on the show have been dumbed down and weakened to the point of being in their orbit that none are worthy to come back to the forefront again. After they got Dixie out of Zendell's world there was a chance for her to come back, but the dummys got rid of her.

I just want both of them to be cut back to at least only 2 to 3 days a week for a long period of time. I would not shed a tear at all and would very much enjoy the break.

If Alexa HAS to leave, I'd LOVE to see Babe recast with a blonde Lindsay Korman Hartley. :wub:

DAMN, that'd be hot -- and more important, inspired -- casting. :)

The character has no purpose at all, so no recast. If a character has to be propped as much as Babe is, then that is not a lead character and should be axed or backburnered ASAP!

This is going to sound strange coming from me, but I don't want her gone, and here's why: It doesn't seem fair to me, that after all the hell she put PV through over the last few years, after all the relationships she ruined (I still mourn David/Bianca and David/Miranda's relationships), her just getting to leave, is like a triple slap in the face. You know they'd have her riding off into the sunset. Getting her "Babe = love, light, happiness" happy ending. I'd rather just grin and bare her, then have to deal with the idea that in the end she wrecked so much havoc and got her happy ending. I hate her with a passion.

But I won't be sad if she does go and they don't recast. Which I don't think they will, not for awhile anyway.

:o Kylie :o

I'd rather her be killed off than anything, but gah what am I thinking, they'd make her a martyr if she died for real.

  • Member

LOL, sorry. But honestly, the thought of her getting a happy ending makes me sicker then her being tortured by JR, and stalked by the fetus on the show. At least then she's not really happy. I'd rather watch her be miserable, then know that she took so much from so many in PV and still got everything she wanted. :angry:

I love Babe so no I don't want her gone. I do want her airtime to be decreased thou. I want her to go back down to 11-15 episodes a month like she had back in 2005.

  • Member

I would love for babe to leave pv penniless and with no parental rights to little adam, jr would have full custody. Her last scene would be on her entering a trailer park with her mama, never ever to be seen or heard of again.

  • Member

That's just it, we all know that if she does leave, it'll be to ride off into the sunset. Gag me. I'd rather her be in PV, because then at least the new HW/s could make her suffer. If she's gone, she's happy. I don't want her happy. Not yet. Not until that halo is ripped off her head, and she's brought back down to earth where she belongs.

Alexa's impending exit brings a smile to my face. Her character is more overexposed than Paris' coochie and just as worn out. To the left.

Yesterday's episode where Bianca begged that raggamuffin to be her friend were so nauseating.

Babe is love?

Umm if love is an irritating rash that you just can't get rid of then yes, Babe is definately love!

Once upon a time I enjoyed this character. Once upon a time I could see past the propping and enjoy Babe for Babe.... but after last year... it just was too much to take.

The show clearly built her up as the next great thing. I mean even the great Kendall Hart took a backseat to this bimbo.

It was all about Babe. Every major storyline last year, Babe was somehow involved.

Babe was portrayed as the victim time and time again...Babe was right, and everyone else was wrong.

Erica, Kendall, Bianca, J.R, Adam... Tad, Dixie, the list goes on of characters who were sacrificed to prop up the slutty saint.

I literally cannot stand the character now. If she hadn't been so overexposed and written how she should be written. Then I would love her.

I will cheer Alexa's exit.... and hopefully its Babe's exit as well. If I was writing the show. The b*tch would finally be carted off to jail where she belongs.

I mean I could take Bianca not holding it against her... what Babe did... Bianca wasn't acting out of character.

But now forgiveness< Begging for a friendship. Kissing her! Crying for her!

Its just taken it too far. Next thing Babe will be babysitting Miranda., Its just something that should not have happend.

So to sum it all up. Babe is not love. I repeat she is not love. She is hate, spite with a very very bad bleach job.

So run for the hills Alex! Run for the hills!

The Kendall vs. Babe issue is pretty much a non-issue to me. There is very little propping of Kendall. Characters either like Kendall or dislike Kendall, and Kendall is a b!tch and KNOWS she's a b!tch. She doesn't act like a b!tch and yet, has every character on the show sing her praises. Kendall doesn't cheat, steal babies, cheat, kidnap babies, cheat, plot to kidnap babies -- and have everyone saying "THANK GOD FOR YOU KENDALL! YOU'RE A MIRACLE! THE WORLD IS A LOT BRIGHTER WITH YOU HERE KENDALL! I FORGIVE YOU BECAUSE EVERYTHING YOU DO IS OUT OF LOVE KENDALL!"

Also, Lish and Kendall have paid dues over the last five years to become the leading ladies of the show. Kendall had to WORK at being viewed as more than just a trouble maker and Lish had seriously come a long way in her acting since her first few months. The actress and character weren't thrust into every storyline and had every storyline focus around them and pimped out as the Next Big Thing,

For some reason, it's still okay to dislike Kendall. They had no problem having Kendall turn into a derogatory slurring b!tch with Zarf, making her dislikable. But it's NEVER okay to dislike Babe. NEVER EVER! Any character who does, obviously = bad. Babe is innocent. Babe is pure. Babe kidnaps and lies and cheats and deceives, sure, but still... Babe must always = Good. And if you think otherwise, the show will beat it into you no matter WHAT her role in the storyline is. Most of the time, she's the antagonist, but the show insists she's the protagonist. Yeah... she's the victim of her own dumb ass decisions time and time again.

Yeah, it's not that Alexa is a bad actress. IN fact, I think She's good and babe is an ok character sometimes. But the problem is EVERYONE in PV is obsessed with her despite th fact that she does all of these terrible things all the time. If TIIC wrote Babe as aware that she does terrible things and punished th PV universe would make sense. Instead Babe s always "Well, at the time kidnapping Miranda was right," "well, at the time sleeping with Josh was the right thing to do," and everyone with the exception of the Kane women (sometimes) nod their zombie heads ""BABE...IS...LOVE." It's just not logical. Logic of course, being one big problem at AMC. Babe just makes that problem more obvious.

I put Kendall right up there with her. I will be so glad when AMC is once again not the Babe & Kendall hour. I can't stand either one of them anymore because they have been on so much and the center of AMC for the last few years. I think both characters are good but they are way too overexposed and no show should ever be that much about any character or 2 characters.

Getting rid of Babe without a decent alternative will only make everything even more about Kendall so it will only make it worse for me. Because at this point I don't know who I hate the most Babe or Kendall. There has never been a point in AMC history when the show revolved so much around only 2 characters. Even during Erica & Tara's heyday there was always Mary, Ruth, Donna, etc. who got a lot of air time. Then during the Brooke & Erica years there was Natalie, Nina, Maria, and several others. It is a disgrace. I am so ready for both to take a break.

I did read on another board that AMC has already talked to an actress about replacing Alexa if she does leave. So I doubt very seriously even with Alexa gone we have seen the last of Babe. Since this is not in the spoiler thread I won't mention who the actress was.

As always, ITA with you, Steve. Babe has easily slipped into Greenlee's old position as the leading lady who co-stars with Kendall. They are the only two women on the entire show whose romance stories are actually on the frontburner all the time.
