NBC: Dropped storylines


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I have not watched in a long time, so help me out here...

Isn't Epig still a disgusting philandering moron? Who cares what he thinks of Gwen since he's been cheating on her with Teresa for years? Who is this pig to judge anyone?

And of course the Law of Common Decency dictates that Gwen would want to assist, if she could, a woman being mawled, but where was Teresa's decency? Didn't she agree to have sex with that monster to get Epig back?

But then you have to look at the history of the two "women", and ask yourself, "Why in the sam hell would Gwen assist Teresa with anything"???

No, Theresa did not agree to have sex with Alistair. She never agreed to anything more than accepting dinner from him and moving into the mansion to be near her daughter. It's been stated more than once that Alistair raped her, and that if she had gone to the police with Ethan she'd make sure that she had nothing.

It matters what he thinks of Gwen because he's got it in his head that Gwen's some innocent victim when she's not. The breakup ended on Gwen's terms, which was a load of [!@#$%^&*] because Gwen has two HUGE lies over her head that she got away with.

I'm sorry, but I do not see how you can justify Gwen walking up to the door, hearing Theresa scream, then go back to her own bedroom to have sex with Ethan. To make matters even worse, she laughs about it with her mother then subsequently pulls a Sheridan by gaslighting her and claiming that she was lying about it. How can you make what Gwen did okay?

Teresa DID agree to have sex with Al, and she reneged. She has a right, but we are talking about Al. It was on your screen too. And Teresa also agreed to be his ho if Al would assist in getting her back with Epig. That was onscreen as well. Remember she had on that chicken negligee? She was getting ready to hook him up until Epig was poisoned.

Again, who cares what a rat bastard cheating pig thinks?

I am not justifying Gwen MINDING HER OWN BUSINESS. I think both are disgusting, and Epig is not worth all the humiliation and mutilation both have gone through to get him.

There is a website that has all the transcripts. After the "rape", Teresa told Al she would do ANYTHING to get back Epig. Think back to how it all began. Teresa and Al were outside the mansion, and he was pawing her. She tried to get away as he told her what she needed to do to get back with Epig. Teresa was disgusted at first, but she eventually came around. She was going to have sex with Al, but she could not go through with it. That is when Al took what she promised.

Riddle me this, Batman, how did Teresa get to Al's room? He did not use force until after she changed her mind...

There you have it.

And you have my apologies because the last thing I meant to do was have a long drawn out debate about the garbage show I no longer watch. It just bugs me when I seen convenient "truths" in posts...

I won't bug you anymore about this...

Gwen was not just "minding her own business". She was letting a rape occur, especially knowing who was being attacked. She specifically turned up the radio in her bedroom so that Ethan wouldn't hear Theresa screaming for help. She went to the door and said "Theresa must be in trouble" then went back into her room to have sex with Ethan so that he wouldn't come to her help. That's not "minding her own business" no matter how much you try to spin it.

Theresa never had any intention of having sex with Alistair. She has said point blank that she wasn't going to sleep with him from the get go. Every time Al tried making a move on her, she pushed him away. That's not exactly someone who's about to have consensual sex and then reneg at the last second.

Theresa wasn't in Alistair's room. She was in her own room and Al barged in to attack her. She was going to LEAVE at that moment when he raped her.

You need to go back and watch that episode because you clearly do not know what you're talking about. Stop trying to make up stuff that didn't happen so you can justify Gwen's behavior.

    • Did Denise give any interviews where she talked about her first few years on GH... '73-75? I wonder if she had any regrets leaving Days for GH, as from what I've read, the show was in the dumps writing-wise, so am thinking she didn't have great story? Any Leslie story highlights I've seen always start with '76, after Gloria Monty took charge.
    • I know! It's like second verse, here we go again!  Agreed. Certainly there was concern maybe even fear at the highest levels for the very good reason that what they had was so economically successful, so of course this risk was scary but if anyone was brave she was. Yes, he was. I have seen her associated with getting it on the air one other place but no details nor official title. Not the writer or creator so it made me wonder if she functioned as a kind of uncredited ad hoc producer, but then maybe she just supported it. At any rate that is nothing but supposition on my part. No data! Yes, not a surprise anymore but still so frustrating! On one hand I am appreciative that she is included in this book, but scholarship where are you?!
    • that wasnt her point. She wanted to further demonize Ted; that was the main focus of their talk. She wants to ensure that Nicole leaves him so that he's free and single to be with her. At this point, I dont think she really cares what Nicole thinks of her; she just wants her out of the way Eva is Nicole's stepdaughter and is a Dupree by association. If Nicole takes Ted back then its reasonable that she would accept his daughter and i that happens, Eva will have welcomed to their country club, be invited to their parties, have access to their resources, etc....much like Andre whom also isnt a blood Dupree but is accepted by them via Nicole. Eva got what she got from Anita bc of Hayley. I think its important to remember that context bc they just dealt with an interloper that infiltrated their ranks and hurt her daughter in the worse way. Now you have another unfortunate girl positioned to do the same to her other daughter. The feelings are still too fresh and she doesnt want Eva to get the idea that she would ever be allowed the opportunity to play them again
    • Oh I've seem this! That's part of why I'm curious! The show could put EastEnders to shame on the gangster Aspect! Oh I've seem this! That's part of why I'm curious! The show could put EastEnders to shame on the gangster Aspect!
    • Eve was one of those characters that had the "Jessie Brewer"role. They had heavy storyline, they burned through it and now they are there for support and a touchstone in the community (Marland wanted to give Jessie story, but I agree with Monty...she best served in her connecting role, and keeping that damn Amy Vining busy so she keeps her nose out of things) So charcters are important and why they should have kept characters like Bridget around (even as she is more volatiles then Eve) who didnt need a big storyline but could have been behind the bar making connections and expostion, but Rauch wanted JEVA/JEVA/JEVA and DRAMA (which to him meant a lot of yelling and stupidity.)
    • Why do I feel like (or remember possible

    • A number of errors in the above article. You wonder how with all that research,how  they slipped through. I think they are conflating Women Alone with Lonely Women. I have never read anything of a serial called Women Alone. However,I am prepared to be proven wrong.   It seems Irna actually WAS interested in TV soaps as witnessed by These Are My Children airing in 1949 on NBC in the early days of TV.   I don't believe that was reluctance, rather simply good business sense as radio's dominance began to wane.   Inferring that was somehow connected to Irna who was off that show 10 years prior.   Again inferring that Phillips leaving 6 years prior had some connection to the eventual cancellation.     Again these two events are in fact one. Irna left ATWT only once in 1970 and returned in 72. She was not working on another P&G show at the time. So either she brought the ratings up or they dipped, depending on which above account you believe   Untrue. A World Apart debuted 5 years after she left AW. And AWA aired longer than a few months. Over a year in fact.   I believe Orin Tovrov was the writer. Irna was not involved in the creation of this show. And no mention of Masquerade an Irna serial  which was on air around this time.   TBD finished in 1962. As we see over and over, these inaccuracies are published and accepted as fact.
    • YES! While I objectively found the writing on RH (particularly during its first few years and then again in its final days) to be excellent, so many of the principle characters were unpleasant, and totally turned me off. I could never settle down and become emotionally involved with a group of people who grated on my nerves.
    • Ugh now we get a Emmerdale and Corrie crossover soon. ugh.. How desperate
