Members Kelli Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 I don't either. I'd bet money on the fact that they'll be gone by the end of February sweeps. Just in time for this whole Reese/Bianca/Zach/Kendall thing to play out. I find it a little too convenient that Bianca's return happens right at the exact same time that AM is taking her time off. Hopefully the Reese/Bianca stuff is much better than the Zach part of the story because the motivations and back story for that have been severely lacking. When you write almost an entire story to take place off screen you have to work extra hard at the finer details and in explaining these characters choices and so far that hasn't been done.

Members JackPeyton Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 I agree, however i also think they will dive much more into that. All we got so far was 2 scenes of them explaining it to Greenlee, in the middle of torandos. I hope that down the line after the winds stop and the dust settles that they will dive much deeper into the backstory/off screen actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alwaysAMC Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 Great casting coup! I'm really sick of these Zendall fans. I hate how they're ready to bash Bianca (oh, but not ZACH!) basically before she's even aired. I also REALLY hate how just one thing they don't like makes them cry "Pratt is HORRIBLE. McTavish was better - AMC deserves to get cancelled!". Are you F*CKING serious? Are you even watching anything else going on in Pine Valley? The show is loads better since Pratt has come on. I don't agree with 100% of his choices as a writer, but I'm not going to call him the kiss of death to AMC bc of that. I'm so sick of these people. Its really crazy if you think about it --- its the fanbases that can keep daytime alive AND also destroy them at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 Wow. Let it all out, alwaysAMC! And... WORD to everything you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steve Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 Co-sign! What makes no sense to me about fanbases is that, by their own admission, several of these posters only watch their couple on YouTube so why do TIIC pander to them? This is a big part of the problem with all soaps, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kubla Khan Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 What are you talking about? Yes, we saw Sarah's mother for all of one episode eight years ago, and she was homophobic. We never saw Maggie's parents. We DID see Lena's mother, Paulina Kundera, who was nothing but supportive to Lena and Bianca. (If you do some research on GLBT teens and adults, you'll see that the majority of them had parents who were not accepting, at least not at first. It seems to be the norm, sadly, and the reason why so many people have great difficulty in being open about their sexuality. Even parents who proclaim 'I'm not homophobic; I like gay people!' suddenly change their tunes when their own child comes out. They like the gays, but don't want their own child to be gay!)

Members Adam Posted October 24, 2008 Members Share Posted October 24, 2008 I've been saying for years its fanbases who have in a big way led daytime to the dire straits they are in now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
