Sometimes, it boggles my mind how otherwise intelligent people can get so worked up over four of the dullest characters in AMC's long history. Don't get me wrong: they annoy the heck out of me, too. But come on, people. We are missing the bigger issue here: Angie is back! (And so is Jesse!)

You can have your Rylees and Zendalls. At last, a part (a tiny part, but still...) of my AMC has returned.

Hey Casey it has been a while since you posted...AMC is definitely getting more diverse now with a lot of African American on the show. You must be pleased :)

And they are all represented well...a doctor, a police officer (Jesse probably will return and go back to working as a cop), a politician (Mario Van Peebles' character), a mature teen, police chief, lawyer, and not sure what Frankie will do-go back to being a doctor?

Say, can anyone tell me whatever happened to Jesse's cousin, Carl Blair Jr.? I know his uncle, Frank Grant, died some time ago; but I've always wondered about Carl (and Nancy, for that matter).

I didn't know Angie returned in 95 :)

Hmmm I must have been watching a different version of AMC, can you send me copies of the version you obviously watched? Zendall were far from the focus for an entire year :rolleyes: They had 1 storyline that was about them last year, and that ended in February. Crash was about Greenlee and no one else...

From Feb. to July they were pretty much backburnered......

Wow, I vaguely, remember them, but then again I'm only 29! Anyway, was Nancy the one whom Jesse was living with? I think I remember an episode where Jesse was sneaking out of the house to meet Angie and Nancy was questioning his whereabouts. Was that her?

Ah so she's the band girl? We saw her babysitting once before I think but I was confused lol. But how did Richie know, when he didn't even know where Annie left to or if she did, that she'd be at Wildwind (and isn't ti harder to get past their security)?

Still I loved the Richie scenes. The RyAnnie stuff was dull (where is this stable they had to fly to anyway?) but... I actually enjoyed nearly everything else today (even the Colby/Dre stuff actually)

Debbi came back and is already giving the role all she has--I even really enjoyed Quentin/Fankie for the first time today.

I also liked that they did mention about Jacob for us Loving/City fans (I know i'm in th eminority but I still kinda wishthey'd just bring him back instead of Jesse who we've seen as a ghost, but I guess they'd then have to explain all of Jacob's history why he's a double etc)--and they mentioned Cassandra she was the white babythey adopted at the end of City rigth? or am I mixing things up.

Debbi was my fave actor on Loving/City and I'm SOO glad to have her back--and I feel, as much as I complain about B&E right now without them we probw oulda never gotten her or Darnell back--back during City Barbara E often said she was one of her fave actors to write for, and they had all but been forgotten on AMC (though I like that Tad mentioned hims till being in touch etc).

I do feel that this Friday is almsot too soon to bring Jesse back so I hope it's handled well and slowly...

Yep right before or after, can't remember, Loving became City and her character moved to New York. But (I just rewatched those week long eps over Dec when i was sick) I think she has 4 words--there were so many old characters in that house that you could hardly tell who was all there (though it was great don't get me wrong).

Wasn't the role briefly recast when Debbi first left (to go to Generations, pre her character coming back to Loving which I thought was poorly done in as much that she never went to AMC between--to tell the AMC audience essentially she'd be on Loving)? I thought so, I know Debbi was mad that her intteracial romance with that Doctor (nina's on and off again husband) was cut short due to fan reaction disliking it.

Wildwind's security has always sucked. Remember when that one British chick came to kill Aidan back in 2003 and she was tied to this idiot named Julian? Aidan was accused of killing his wife...they just pranced on and around Wildwind without being asked for identification and what not but yet one had revenge on his mind with a gun and the other was a hired killer.

They are worse than the Keystone cops in my home town (the one I was raised, not the one listed on my profile)

I TOTALLY FORGOT THAT. That was shortly after Aiden was introduced right--under Culliton? Or maybe not--did anythign happen from it? I remember the one actress really well but not the story.

or of course there was the time Gillian was shot... And other examples. Still how did Richie knwo she'd be there? Why didn't they just have the babysitter looking after her at Annie's--where he'd look first anyway?

Re Wildwind I do liek the idea of Julia turning it into a free clinic (and they even mentioned English house from the old days when she said that--aww)--and I could picture maybe Angie being the main dopctor there--kinda like the free urban clinic her and Jacob ran in City.

Oh well. Speaking of Richie though--weren't him and Janet gonna team up? Was that dropped?

The stuff with Aidan and him murdering the dude's wife (which he was exonerated for) was under Rayfield/Cascio

I am not sure what is up with Ritchie/Janet....All I know is that she returns and would help him bust out of the psych ward (but he just got released) but that Is all I can remember. I have not seen a thing on if Kate Collins will appear in any episodes for 2008

      So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

      The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.

      So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.

      It does seem cheap and lazy for this show to have just one family. Passions was heavily criticized but it was nicely structured with a total of four families.

      I think it was definitely a surprising reveal in the storyline. I had a hard time appreciating Evan because I couldn't get behind his interest in Amanda. But that's because I never thought Sandra Ferguson made her a compelling character (although to give her credit she occasionally had decent emotional scenes with Mac or Rachel).

      I'll even go further... I'll make her re-think BeLief and create a new patent. Brooke needs stuff to do. Anything other than beg or be in her panties. We need her to be creative. But sadly Bradley has a very low opinion of these characters. To him Brooke is nothing more than sex and scandal... or a pathetic doormat. Ridge is nothing more than a chauvinist pig that needs to pit women against each other to feel like A MAN and Steffy is nothing more than her father's guard-dog. I don't even want to open my mouth about Hope. She is such a fiasco in my opinion... I will not suffer if they kill her off. Bradley pooped on her character and now it's too late to fix it. Annika is great and I would hate to see her go, but slutty Hope was not her thing. The vibe was missing.

      I've seen Jason interact with Mitch and annoy him. That's as far as I recall. I didn't even have a slight idea that Evan had a vendetta against Rachel... That came as a surprise to me. I thought Evan was Iris's dog and that's it. Now he's definitely more interesting.

      Thanks for these. I can't recall -- did Evan's vendetta have any position on Mitch, or was it all about Rachel? @Maxim have you seen any Frames intreracting with Mitch in any way?

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      Uh-oh. Today just might’ve been the first Paula/Jeanne stinker. I have a feeling whose fault that might be though. So, Doug III is getting a job at the Pub?  It’s good to see him interact with other characters. I enjoyed his scenes with Roman, even though the talk of Frankie and Max seemed a little random. And it also could be really interesting now that Tate knows. Days really need to start pushing their rivalry again. We need some follow up from the punch. Tying it all to Holly, to Sophia’s pregnancy, to the guys that Doug III owes money to could be good.  But yeah, wayyy too much Leo again in today’s episode. Seriously, has anything changed with this nothing character? I thought it was all Ron’s fault, but maybe Greg Rikaart is (partially) responsible for Leo being so insufferable.  And yeah seriously, Rafe needs to throw all of these people out of his house. Including Gabi

      But I do wonder who’s the mysterious voice that Gabi overheard with EJ on the night he was shot. Based on yesterday’s episode, I have a suspicion.
