I do not mind them showing that episode since it was just a classic AMC moment...jaw dropping and just a WHOA kind of thing..then Bianca confessing to Erica she was still pregnant.

Such great AMC memories. I loved that writing of McTavish-how did she go from that to unabortion?!

It was one of the characters classic "unveiling" episodes though. I'm surprised the went with 2/5 (replay of the ripping) instead of 2/4 (build-up to the ripping). I liked 2/5 better but 2/4 was the build-up to ripping and therefore that made it the "stronger" RB episode of the court-ripping set.

Episode-wise, for the most part, not the choices I would have made - but whatever.

Bad character moment, definitely - but also one of the truly bitchiest moments ever on AMC. One of AMC's most shocking courtroom moments ever as well, etc... Sort of a "classic."

THanks guys for your help! I'm disappointed in the Greenlee choices--I was hoping for at least one from '99 when Agnes Nixon was briefly writing and she was the spoilt, bad girl (like a new, young Erica) and one with Leo--but I guess they wanna emphasize the new stuff.

Odd that one of the Angie episodes is a surprise--maybe they're unsure? but still the other two are happily ones they haven't shown on past marathons or Daytime to Remembers (we've already had some Jenny and Jessie running away ones on there as well as Jessi and Angie's firs tnight of intimacy which I thought would be repeated) It'd be cool to have one of Jesse's death, since I'm sure that will be referenced...

I wonder if the surprise Angie/Jessie episode is a two-parter from The City? Doubtful, but that would be a nice treat!

Except that's jacob but ya--I thought an ep or two from Loving/City would be cool just to catch people who didn't watch that soap up on what she did after AMC

It was a classic episode that represents true soap drama. It was also a huge moment in the history of Greenlee, so I think it should be in the lineup. McTavish was so great at times, but then she just sucked at other times. Oh well.

Like I said, that was a huge moment during RB's portrayal of Greenlee. Greenlee's always been a mean person, she may have been dulled down over the years but that is the origin of the character. Tearing off Kendall's dress was not out of character for Greenlee so IMO that's not a part of her downfall at all. A part of her downfall would perhaps be driving/kidnapping a child off of a cliff, not exposing her enemy.

Forget about Greenlee ripping off Kendall's dress, Im more interested in seeing Myrtle bash and make fun of Greenlee! That was the highlight of the episode for me. Erica was there trashing Greenlee, and Myrtle was right next to her laughing and poking fun at Greenlee. That was priceless and what set Greenlee off before she ripped the dress off. LOL. I lost that episode and havent seen it in years but that scene was great. I will get a kick out of it again

      It's so jarring seeing the changeover from Sherry Mathis to Louan Gideon.  The vibe, mannerisms, and overall personality of Liza changes instantly. The chemistry Sherry has with both David F and Joe Lambie is gone the second the recast happens.  I wonder how viewers took the news of the recast since you didn't have time in between airings before the change happened. Quinn/Sarah... One overacts (Quinn) and one under acts (Sarah). Wendy of 1985 is a good mix of the 1982 sweet Wendy and the 1983/84 vixenish Wendy.

      I would put Felicia in the 'small dose' auntie category because she means well, but comes on too strongly at times.  In small doses, she would be a blast to hang out with.. but in anything larger than a small... she would be exhausting. I tend to prefer lower key people than people that are always 'on' all the time.  Those people can veer off into energy vampire status pretty quickly.

      I didn't like the Harry story, but Nazar did have a great introduction. He was probably the highlight of last year.  Now that you mention it, I guess the truly dire stories (Nicole, Harper/Drew/Phil, Nicole) didn't start until summer.

      I pray⏤and I know it's a big prayer⏤that Noel Maxam is somehow able to figure things out budget-wise so we can stop re-dressing existing sets as "new" sets. I know in apartment buildings apartments can generally look the same, but I'm over it on this soap. The last time he was executive producer was in 2011 when the original Horton Town Square was introduced, and we had some other sets get introduced around this time (likely pre-commissioned prior to his election), but I'm trying to have some hope he can pull this off. Let's [finally] see it.

      Definitely not the best of RC's breakdowns. I don't know what it says that I could pick up his trademarks yesterday 30 minutes in without even knowing that he did one. There was something more...quirky/boardstroked...about Dani. Though I love the Dani/Nicole scenes, she was just a little too hip?...which made me think back to the episode when she broke into Bill/Hayley's house. Then watching the episode later on, I saw Hayley was being used as a punchline to the more interesting and relevant Bill/Ted scenes (see you all were just talking about how you hoped they got scenes...one thing this show is great at...what people want on this board...they already have the foresight for it. The reason I feel the DNA test will get mentioned @Cheap21 in more detail). And then poor Anita reduced for the most part propping up an album.    Needless to say, not my favorite RC episode. And since we are in aftermath week, I just smh. And barely worth a rewatch. BUT...was there good for me?    Yes. Thankfully, we still got good aftermath beats regardless of the breakdown.   Like I said, I really like the Dani/Nicole scenes. But I love their dynamic. And I was looking forward to the shoe being on the other foot once the SilkPress storyline hit climax. Quirks aside, it did not disappoint. Dani came in, and she came in fierce for her sister. I loved her attacking Eva. And then her being surprisingly introspective about Nicole due to her own experience. No wonder Nicole reacted to her being self-aware. So did I.    Meanwhile Bill and Ted finally met up. I'm kinda sad that we did not get that sooner given the scenes that played out sidepiece in the background aside. It might have been interesting to see more of their status as non-Duprees coming into the family explored.    And of course I can't leave without mentioning Eva vs SilkPress Sheila which was the highlight. Both of them were giving. And SilkPress was just so cold with it. I did love that Eva finally stopped letting her gaslight her. Sad to see the duo break up. But I did love that she went to Ted. So...the next turn begins.   And speaking of turns...uh oh at Kat and Tomas. I'm sure he won't be staying away from her. So most definitely, Kat vs Eva ain't over. It will be interesting to see how it goes now that most people know that Kat was right all along.

      Nah I enjoyed it much more last year because of the Harry plot that ended during that time. Nazar being introduced and them. But this time it is so lame and nothing I like forward to anymore and I’m one of them long time fans. Of course I would be upset if they would cancel it but maybe take a year off or two and return refreshed
