AMC: Friday

Now THIS is what I love reading from you ;) haha

I definitely agree with you and Steve regarding the wonderful character-driven scenes that were so emotional and intense between Krystal/Adam. Like you said, they left it to the viewers to decide who they feel for at the end.

Word to all the Ambyr/Colby praise too - my heart broke for her at the end when she stepped in front of the gun. Ambyr has improved immensely since her Sweet Sixteen days.

I've seen Jacob do some great work over the last few years - but 2007 has not been his year - he is phoning it in or something - I'm not impressed. He's been great before, so I don't know what his problem is lately.

While I agree MCS looks a lot like Budig - I also think Sabine has her mannerisms DOWN. I talked to my mother today (we have a weekly AMC discussion) - anyway she mentioned how Sabine is doing her mouth the same as Budig (although my mother isn't sold yet - she's hard with accepting any recast though).

And YES - please let Jonathan and Del both be the shooters - kill 3 ;)

No problem :) Those little weather interruptions are always so annoying....hope you can catch what you missed on Soapnet or something.

I meant to address something else today. I was a little impressed with Krystal's gunshots. Obviously she didn't shoot the gun really, but the direction was pretty good - and did they use tiny explosives or what? I was impressed that they blew up some little things (except the front door shot was a little lame).

that interruption was necesary though bc there was alot of flooding and people needed to know and be aware of the conditions out there. This is the 2nd time this has been this bad in the past 3 weeks

Annie looked gorgeous today. I really loved how her hair was done. She and Ryan were good as usual

Ah. I didn't get home til almost 7 p.m. today, so I just FF-wd'ed past the entire episode actually (was just writing out the characters on the episode for the April Episode Count, will watch later), including the special report. It almost felt as if it rained more this afternoon than it did during the storm 2-3 weeks back.

I noticed that on FF-wd. Absolutely loved that she did that.

I am SO with you there. I've said on numerous occasions that Francesca James should be the EP of this show. Carruthers doesn't cut it with me. I know Frons exercises lots of control on ABCD, but of all the shows, AMC seems to be the one that he bothers with the least. So IMO, Carruthers actually has more power than JFP and Valenti do and is largely responsible for the crapfest that it's been the past couple of years.

AMC needs a lot of fixing before I could give it another look. Anytime I sporadically check in, I'm thoroughly bored.

It is interesting with Bobbie. You could tell she was sick on Wednesday's show - and that is when Jeff had to sedate her after she realized Janet had Jenny. So she got to rest up and not talk much on yesterday's show bc she was sedated. But her voice is still kind of raspy today - but I totally agree with you Kenny. Her raspy voice definitely added that certain element to the scenes - mainly bc she sounds tired and desperate - which at this moment she completely is.

Josh is ALOT more bearable now that he's moving away from the Babe sphere. I loved those two together at first but MMT ruined the potential they did have. Babe isnt so bad herself these days now that she isnt being pimped out like she was. She's better in smaller doses

IA on Kendall's hair. She needs to do that alot more often. She's been looking gorgeous lately.

    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.
