Hi, I'm not very familiar with Loving yet but I saw that catfight between Ann & Gwyneth today. Could you please tell me more about why did they catfight and when was it (month and year ideally) ? Thanks

Hallo, I'm a huge Gwyneth fan....who is, according to you, her biggest love or better obsession : Buzza, Jeff or Clay and which is your favourite pair? Mine is Dane.

Thank you

[DRW50]

Hello. Nice to see more Gwyn fans.

I think her biggest love was Clay, although the passionate scenes she has with Dane are probably her most interesting - so much with Clay seems like a misery.

This may be an odd answer, but I think Gwyneth never loved a man the way that she loved her children, Curtis and Trisha.

Jeff was a lustful impulse.  She cheated and competed with Clay.  Her fling with Dane was just to get under Ann's skin.  And Harry wouldn't have worked out in the long run.  Finally, she liked Buck and Jeremy, but their differences made it easy for her to let them go.

Obviously, she loved Rick as well, but her life was devoted to Curtis and Trisha.  As evidenced by the fact that she had been rejected before, but when Trisha cut ties with her, it literally drove her insane.

My favorite Gwyneth pairing was Christine Tudor's Gwyneth with Dennis Parlato's Clay. They had great chemistry and even though they were only on the show together for a relatively short amount of time, they managed to convey a sense of the characters' lengthy history together and complicated feelings for each other.

Conversely, my least favorite Gwyneth pairing was Christine Tudor's Gwyneth with Larkin Malloy's Clay. Not really Malloy's fault, but the writing was so weighted in favor of Clay/Dinah Lee that the triangle played out as Gwyneth just being rejected and humiliated over and over.

Both Tudor and Elizabeth Savage played well with Anthony Herrera, although the Gwyneth of the '90s was softened considerably from Gwyneth and Dane's first go round in the '80s. If Gwyneth had maintained the sharp edges from Tudor's original run, I do wonder if Dane's second run could have been extended by having Gwyneth and Dane be a scheming power couple.

What, no love for Gwyn's cougar phase with Armand?

[raffaella]

Thanks for the answers !

For me Armand was sexy but too bland

Gwyn's inability to break free of her co dependent relationship to Clay doomed her from finding true love.

I do think she/Dane were great together..and I think she and Jeremy were promising as well.

Elizabeth Savage seemed like a different character to me. If she was around as Gwyn in the end do you think she would have sold being the killer in THE LOVING MURDERS?

I believe that actor filled in as Damian on ATWT
