Wasn't there also a character named Fiona Fing or something like that at some point, or am I making things up? 

 

 

Which characters do you think were missed opportunities? Interesting actors/characters who could have lasted longer and get more story.

The 1036 clip shows how sheltered and entitled Eden was.  I liked that the show didn't portray Eden as all good...that some characters called her out on her entitlement.

 

Which Capwells daughter would you all say was most entitled...Kelly or Eden?

Love Robin Wright as Kelly. Much more in this second viewing. Jeffrey and Kell are fantastic. I didn't love them as much when I saw the series as a child. BUt now I think they're so fresh together.

And I agree with you that Ted is so anoying in these episodes. I cannot stand him.  

I like Todd Mckee, but the writing of him in the story of Hayley's rape is so bad. 

That doesn't mean I like Jake. I think Ric Edwards is a wooden actor.

Killing off Hayley was a mistake.  Another soap death I'll always remember- her getting hit by that car.  Was it Ted she pushed out of the way?  Or Gina?  I think it was Ted.  Hayley provided a conscience for Gina that she badly needed.

 

I love that cute scene of Eden frisking Cruz and finding out he got his badge back.  I love them.

Man, why did Eden have to be hurt so often?  Why couldn't it have been Cruz who was paralyzed and left for dead in Utah in 1987?  Why couldn't it have been Cruz who was shot up with "ice" (methamphetamine) in 1990?  What if Cruz had gotten brutally raped by at least one other grown man not long after Eden's own brutal rape?

    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
    • Sharon Rose Gabet told me on Facebook that she calls this "Baby Raven".
    • I imagine the storyline would now segue into Laura's accident. But I hope they manage to keep Leslie around though. I really don't want her to be written out, or get the DOOL treatment where she just pops up every so often to cause some short term trouble; the character and the actor were such a find.

    • You're welcome! I can't wait to read what your thoughts are... when and if you get into it, of course. "The Mansion Of The Damned" is amazing. It has everything - thriller, horror, crime, drama, soapy madness. Then as soon as it ends... you get Raven's return... which re-starts the whole show for me. So... I'm really happy for you! You're in for a treat.
