The Jabe stuff was great, well the premise of it anyway. Its a classic AMC scene. Family oriented and very realistic, and what a concept, it was light and fun. Not dark and depressing. Now comes my issue with it, Amanda Baker and Jacob Young share no chemistry.. none what so ever. So Brown and Esensten (whoever the hell is writing) stop the Jabe redux cold in its tracks. At least Amanda has slightly better chemistry with Billy Miller. Not much, but better.

Kendall an Aidan are complete frigging idiots. Basically Erica suspects, Jack supsects and no possibly even Zach. Sop talking about your grief sex man! They are idiots.

I thought the Jabe stuff was hilarious, and I doubt that was the intention of the scene. JR and that hat ROFLMFAO :lol: :lol:

Ugh frickin writer's, they gotta shove the ick down our throats DAILY, it was old 2 weeks ago <_<

LMAO Sean's reaction to finding out about crazy Hannah :lol:

I'm liking Colby & Dre.......

Zach looking in the window at Kendall *sniff*

Oh and spoilers didn't match what we saw today, and same goes for some other spoilers too, so things are changing constantly...

Yeah that hat, something was quite off about that whole thing. Like I said, the premise. :lol:

Sean is so much fun. I am glad we are seeing the teen set again. Colby needs to dump Sean. Her and Dre are so cute

I loved Erica getting Jack over the Kendall's and fussing over her comfort :lol: . I love the way she looks at him :wub: I can't wait until tomorrow's closet scenes :wub: :wub:

I loved Sean's telling Jack that Hannah came on to him and that she was hot and later Jack calling Sean is oversexed nephew :lol:

So Dre's father used 9/11, his wife's death, and his son's pain to get elected huh. Yeah, great guy. NOT <_<

Babe and who

Who do you want Babe with in the end? Ritchie or JR? I think she and Ritchie should give it a shot

Amanda Baker would play a good lesbian - too bad Babe is all about the dick.

Anyway - LOVE LOVE LOVE Dre and Colby! Finally - it took 5 months to figure out the mystery - but Dre's mother was the one who died in 9/11. No wonder he was all crazy upset that day. I'm really looking forward to his story - Dre and Colby could be the new Greg/Jenny or Jenny/Jesse (if you know what I mean).

Erica had me rolling today. Kendall is dumb as hell though - she can never keep her mouth shut or her nerves calm when she's done something wrong. You just have to let her ramble and she'll eventually spill.

I'm actually getting really annoyed with Sabinelee -- I haven't been able to tolerate her since the stupid bomb shelter mess -- so I can't wait for Rebecca's return!!!

I'm really loving dre and colby, I hope the writers don't mess this budding relationship up. I really wonder if zach heard erica say that kendall and aiden slept together???? Kendall can't keep her mouth shut to save her life. If erica and jack suspect something is going on with aiden/kendall how long does kendall think its gonna take for zach to pick up on it? she should just tell him right now before he finds out on his own, but I know she won't.

Dre and Colby have more chemistry than she and Sean ever did. I hope AMC goes in this direction bc it could make Colby semi-watchable

are they even a couple? I asked why would he cheat on another board and was told they werent even together. I get confused since they make 2-3 appearances a month and I realized I havent seen them even close or interacting in months

Oh and even if he did cheat on Colby now, this would be the first time. He and she defiently were not an item when he hooked up with Ava

I wonder what would have happened if Amanda was playing Babe back when Babe and Bianca played their lesbian trick. At least that's what I think happened.

I'm kinda getting annoyed with SabineLee too, I'm very excited for Rebecca's return (obviously ABC is too) and basically I just want Sabine gone.

Colby and Dre def. have potential. I'm glad that AMC is finally getting to the characters that have been backburned for so long.

Rest of the show - blahh as usual. ~~[so]Greenlee[/so]~~

Ha! I thought of you when he showed up.
It only took him 7 months to run out of money. He and Jacinda really need a class on budgeting blackmail gains.
Yeah, I get your point. It's a shame both these stories are happening at the same time. It makes Lulu look like a weird helicopter mom that won't let her kids do anything even if she has valid reasons. The show has written Lulu poorly and tried to make her the heavy in almost every situation since her return so it's not surprising.

True, I remember in the beginning that Bea had a much harder edge (and was shown sucking back beers with Floyd). You could understand a little bit why Nola was embarrased by her origins. Later, it was more like she was unreasonable in her disdain for her family. It is a shame they lost their edge.

It's kind of throughout the entirety when he talks about manliness (and comparing himself to that of Bill Cosby), etc., and how he tried portraying Ted's love for his wife, and how manliness is what needed to be shown. It was multiple comments kind of equalling why he left the role. The 'host' of that 'interview' kept jumping from one point to another point. It was all over the place.

He never discusses exiting BTG. He talks about how BTG opened doors for his career but nothing about his exit at all. And the interviewer doesn't ask at all.

The issue is his description of his self-described "manliness", and how he thought women viewers respond to that ... but all of that is alongside the homophobia he expresses.

Some text-based soap websites have typed up and posted their summaries of this interview, in which they state that he says he'd never portray a gay character because his portrayal wouldn't be believable to the viewers, and that it would be better if gay actors got such roles. People hurriedly reading those unclear summaries might buy that as a support of gay actors and representation. But it's not that at all!
If you watch the video, there's more * emotion * in how he says that, making it obvious that he's homophobic.

Is there a time stamp for when he talks about exiting BTG? I skimmed but couldn't find it.

Marland would totally fit into that because his main strengths was complicate and complex plotlines with characters sometimes taking a backseat (His Guiding Light was worlds different in subtle ways to his predecessors the Dobon's (husband and wife team).
Bill Bell on Y & R also was very much into plot with character sometimes taking a backseat... and also he had a trusted co-head writer by the name of Kay Alden that did flesh out the characters (i.e Victor Newman, Jack Abbott, etc).
Brad Bell has no business being a writer... but he's actually in the plot realm and not the character realm.

Perfect example was the Doug/Vanessa/Joey story that had both of them slowly becoming ensnared in Joey's web with Joey using their addictions (gambling for Doug and Sex for Vanessa) to his advantage. Doug's 'death' with his son coming to investigate were the last episodes of Guza's stint and all of a sudden the son was sent back to school and Vanessa is now becoming pathetic without the cunning glint in her eyes that we saw in the first 150 episodes or so).
The Hayley bombshell was a great way swan song for Guza's stint. but the aftereffects have been a bit lackluster with Hayley since episode 151 with her making such careless mistakes (no way would she be eyeing Jacob's brother in plain sight, nor talking to Randy in public, nor being overly insistent on Bill drinking a special tea, etc)... and now this random chick that came out of nowhere.

I never really thought of the similarity. You're right, they are very similar early on.
Early Bobbie is also similar to what we know of Charlotte Bauer.
Beyond GL and GH being such different soaps, and the huge popularity of Luke, I think the biggest difference between the siblings is how quickly the show pivoted Nola away from a seedier world. Even after Bobbie was "redeemed" (which took much longer than Nola's redemption), her past was never truly gone.
Marland's choice to make the Reardons so nice outside of Nola also meant there was less backstory to mine compared to the Spencers. You had Ruby, who was kind, but also razor-sharp, a reminder of where they'd come from. Nola had Bea, who was the stock sweetie pie mother.
By 1982, Nola was moving away from most of the foundation of the character, and there wasn't very much left by the time Lisa Brown quit the show.
They could have brought some of that hard edge back in her second run, but it just never worked out, due to terrible, terrible writing from start to finish.

You’re welcome!
Hahaha Bell’s words on Kurt Costner has always explained everything I need to know. I’m sure Bell was very familiar with McCloskey’s previous work and in his head it might have worked, but between Bell’s admitted struggles and McCloskey being saddled with a lackluster terrible recast it was all DOA.
To this day I still believe TLW deserved that Emmy wayyyyy more than Stafford.

I had to laugh a bit when Amanda was rubbing perfume on her cleavage. I guess she wanted to smell nice in case Chris wanted to motorboat.
Mary Frann was also in the Tang ad with Florence Henderson. Polly Holiday (from Alice) was in the Mon in the Stove Top ad.

-- Ted gifted Shanice an electronic bird feeder? This guy has no game. None.
-- The hard right turn moving Leslie away from Ted and towards Marcel makes no sense to me. This just feels like another dropped storyline in a sea of dropped storylines. She was OBSESSED with Ted and now doesn't even mention him.
-- BTW, is Allison gone? Or will we return to her around May and hear some people say "Oh, these writers are so clever!"
-- Is Greg Vaughan going to recur the same way Cady McClain recurs? Because if that's the case, there was no sense signing him.
-- Still waiting for someone to explain Eva's complete outfit and jewelry change from one scene to the next.
-- It's sure looking like Bob Guza's departure is a big loss.
