Members Cheap21 Posted July 28, 2007 Members Share Posted July 28, 2007 This is Erica. In what world would she empathize with Greenlee? The writing with Erica was spot on and to ahve her feel sympathy for Greenlee would be out of character for her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted July 28, 2007 Members Share Posted July 28, 2007 I just adore that opening. It was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NYC123 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Members Share Posted July 29, 2007 Well. Erica is being Erica! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted July 29, 2007 Members Share Posted July 29, 2007 I don't think Erica should hold back at all calling someone out on baby stealing, which is exactly what Greenlee did. Sure Erica did it too, but she paid for it, admitted guilt.... so IMO she has all the room to talk down to Greenlee and Babe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted July 29, 2007 Members Share Posted July 29, 2007 Amen, my Sam McCall-loving friend! A-frickin'-men! The bottom line is that the Erica character has never liked Greenlee in the first place (she tolerated her as best she could because of Jack, but even that only went so far) -- so for her to be empathetic to a woman she has NEVER liked after attempting to steal her grandchild would definitely be odd! I'm all for recalling history and for characters having their past actions brought up, but what difference would it make in this situation? Erica doesn't like Greenlee for numerous reasons that date back to Enchantment days. I doubt having Erica be reminded about Maddie is going to make her suddenly bond or empathize with Greenlee. Plus, at the end of the day Erica's grandson was in a tragic car crash because of Greenlee's carelessness -- she has a right to be angry. Baby stealing or not.

Members AMCGio83 Posted July 29, 2007 Members Share Posted July 29, 2007 I totally understand Erica being unwilling to emptathize and forgive greenlee. Totally in character. Erica is not thinking about Maddie. I thought Jack might have reminded her since she was being pretty to HIS daughter. I'm not sayign Erica would epmpathize BUT I think that historically, someone COULD and SHOULD remind her. At the very least it would have made me feel like the writers are in tune to the show's history. This is especially true because Erica was going ON and On to jack about how he has no right to protect her. I'm thinking "HELLO, he defended you during the trial!" If I was Jack I would have called her on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted July 29, 2007 Members Share Posted July 29, 2007 I have re-watched Erica's smackdown on Greenlee and Jack a few times now. I simply cannot get enough of it. That's the Erica Kane we all love! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NYC123 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Members Share Posted July 29, 2007 LOL! Adam you are sp funny. Yup Fridays Erica is the one one we have all been waiting for! Loved that she put down Greenlee and made her cry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted July 30, 2007 Members Share Posted July 30, 2007 There is no reason that Erica should feel bad for Greenlee. Greenlee endangered the life of her grandchild, that alone is enough for Erica to not give a damn if she's being hypocritical or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted July 30, 2007 Members Share Posted July 30, 2007 Word Ryan. And besides that, she is Erica Kane! She can say, do and get away with anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 30, 2007 Members Share Posted July 30, 2007 Yeah, I agree with those who've said Greenlee and Erica have never liked one another. I've always thought it was because the two characters were a lot a like. You know, selfish, bitchy, and even down right pathetic at times. Yeah, Erica should be pissed at the woman who endangered the life of her grandchild. BTW, has Erica ever called herself a grandmother yet or anyone else for that matter?

Members Adam Posted July 30, 2007 Members Share Posted July 30, 2007 No Erica has never been referred to as a grandmother. Its always "my daughter's son/daughter" Or Kendall's son. It must be in Susan's contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 30, 2007 Members Share Posted July 30, 2007 people said for years that Susan Lucci had it in her contract that Erica would never be made into a grandmother and that was one of the conspiracy theories for why Bianca was made into a lesbian. Years later, Erica has 3 grandkids so that rumor has effectively been squashed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted July 30, 2007 Members Share Posted July 30, 2007 I've never understood why people make such a big deal about that. So she doesn't say grandchilren, and? She loves them, that's all that matters. She could call them anything she wants as long as she loves them. But it's a very Erica thing to do not to say grandkids. LOL Doesn't surprise me, but doesn't make me think any less of her or her love for them. In fact, that's like the one thing that I think has been consistent with Erica all these years. I don't know why people think that Susan is so vain. Nothing I've ever seen or heard from her would support that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
