Great show on Friday. JESSE'S BACK!!

First of all I love how Opal has been making more appearances lately. It's so nice seeing backburned characters making small appearances every day or so. The scene with her bringing the picture of A/J to Frankie was such a nice touch.

Ahh It's so nice having Rebecca back. :wub:

I now officially do not like Amanda Baker as Babe. She's so dull and does not bring the same energy to the role that Alexa did.

The new hospital set looks so awesome. It's sleek and modern and the lighting crew did a great job with it.

I watched a couple episodes this week because of Angie -- Hubbard that is, not the Zen Fan :P -- and I have to admit, Rebecca has been doing a good job. She's paying respect to the work Sabine did by doing her best to commit to the Aidan pairing and the Zach friendship -- It's just too bad Aiden Turner has no charisma. I was all set to hate Becky's Greenlee thanks to the tasteless Sabine/Real Greenlee scandal, but Rebecca's been low key and not in your face like "Yeah, bitch! I'm back and taking this character into a complete 180 direction! HA!" which is what I thought she would do.

But I think certain "hate" has nothing to do with Becky or the Real Greenlee ads -- it has to do with the fact that we're still stuck in July and view Greenlee as... what is it that we hear every third post? A Baby Maiming Bitch, is it? Yeah. I think that's where the hate's stemming from.

I totally agree with you. It's either that or people have just dislike the character (pre-Sabine), which is perfectly fine. But If anyone is seriously holding a grudge against Rebecca or Greenlee because of the way Rebecca's return was promoted, then IMO that is a pretty lame reasoning. But that's already been discussed.

:wub:

I was not a fan of AMC during Jesse & Angie's heyday, but I think they are going to be great for the show now. As for Colin's Josh, he's the reason I started watching AMC regularly. I met him last December and he made me an even bigger fan. Hopefully they pair Josh with Julia. I love Sydney Penny too.

The hospital scenes, *shudders* Totally SabineLee there....so much for the REAL Greenlee

Oh please don't presume to say people hold "grudges" or anything.

Oh yep that's where it's coming from ::sarcasm::

And you know what? If I choose to continue to call her that, then I will. Just like people STILL call Babe a kidnapper, Tad a murderer/torturer and Josh an unaborted fetus

But at least Babe's crimes weren't completely whitewashed and rewritten to fit the recast(or a returning actress).......

It's MY perrogative if I dislike Rebecca, and that has to do with herself and nothing to do with Sabine or anyone. I don't care much for Alexa Havins either.......

WORD!

I'll go on the record as saying I suspect the "Crash" rewrite was a direct result of 1) ABCD's luring back RB, and 2) AMC's desire to pretend Sabine's tenure on the show, regardless of whether or not she had acquired any fans, had never happened. If Spike was going deaf anyway, then what was the point of the accident? Again, seems to me B&E might've had some plans for how the crash would've affected all those concerned (say what you will about them, but B&E do, for the most part, pay-off their stories) but all the backstage changes forced the two to scrap them.

No proof, mind you - except, the timing of the two (the rewrite, and the news of RB's return) seemed a little too coincidental for me.

Also, do I hate Rebecca Budig? No, I hate Greenlee. There's a difference. One, I don't know Ms. Budig; and two, she's too bland as an actress for me to be get that riled up with her. Greenlee, OTOH, is sometimes written as if she's the next Erica, but (IMO) she's far too one-dimensional for that.

      I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.

      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.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows.

      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?
