AMC: How will Greenlee be written?


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Most of the promos seem to be pushing the fact that "The Real Greenlee" is some mega soap bitch and even the marathon episodes showcased that side of her. By undoing the crash storyline and softening her a bit, won't all the returning/new viewers be disappointed? Her current storyline doesn't exactly scream "she put the B in Witch."

they'll write her the same. She is the new heroine and she's been done wrong by Kendall and Aidan. I expect her to act like a bitch once she finds out about that but they will play it up with her as the victim as she has been for the past few months

Well, since Greenlee's going to fall ill soon, I don't think we're going to see a b!tchy side of her yet. It may be a while until we see how she's written. My preference would be to see her as the b!tchy and deceiving Greenlee - but I don't want to see her propping Kendall and Zach or vice versa. I want her to have her own story, that stays true to her character. I hope B&E change the way they write her, and something tells me that they will because of the way ABC is promo-ing this. We'll see...

Thats the writers fault, not Sabine. With the writers still in their place, I doubt we will see a change. They wrote Greenlee as a bitch out for blood when she first came abaord but somewhere along the line they decided they wanted to make her into a nice girl and she got tamed down.

Exactly. Annie is basically the exact replica of Rylee era Greenlee. Always kissing Ryan's feet, praising everything he does, holding him up as the worlds conquering hero.

I agree. When Greenlee first came back, it was still most of the writing team (sans McTavish) that was in place when Rebecca left. The character was written vengeful and bitchy up until the Crash storyline -- then B&E took over and totally mis-wrote the character because they clearly didn't know the character.

    • My comment has nothing to do with cast resentment, but does relate to the Finland location shoot: It may be a coincidence, but Jim Matthews died in Finland in 1982.  Hugh Marlowe's final episode was in April 1982, but the character probably didn't die untll May or June. (I'm unable to find the character's date of death, only the date of Marlowe's final episode). SInce Jim and Rachel had very little interaction after around 1975, it is unlikely Jim's death in Finland had any connection to Rachel's potential visit, but the choice to have Jim die in that location at that time is a head-scratcher. 
    • I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him. 
    • I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.
    • Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much. 
    •   Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year. 
    • Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go. 
    • Good morning, boys!  I figured that it was time that our Gio was introduced into the hotness thread

    • Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.
    • FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.
    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.
