Did I hear right? Did Bianca say she was sorry that Baby BeeRinx would never know Babe? Argh! There's St. Bianca rearing her ugly head again. Bianca, notice the fact that your daughter entered the world on the same day Babe left it.

I was worried until Bianca made her admission about wanting to keep the truth from Kendall. Then I cheered. That was Binx living up to her heritage.

Yay! Another "Get off me, you moron!" moment brought to us today by Tad and David.

Loved David going after JR and Tad going after David. It was like a trainwreck. So bad I couldn't turn away.

[All My Shadows]

LMAO. VI *always* delivers that line perfectly.

AMS, WORD to your post! I'm freaking sick of the Reese is so wonderful propping, and she hasn't even aired yet.

Bianca-there are NO words, none

Bianca-STFU you stupid twit, oh I forgot Babe is love ::gag::

Vincent KILLED me today, he was flipping amazing

And neither had the past 100 things you've shat on and spewed hatred towards when they hadn't aired yet and hadn't fit inside your perfect Zendall-is-everything-and-the-rest-of-the-show-is-crap bubble, but ended up being quite good.

[Cheap21]

how about selfish, backstabbing bitch who needs to take her delusional two faced self back to Europe permanently

[alwaysAMC]

Not that I'm 100% sold on the Bianca/Zach storyline/concept.

But....

We've been giving Bianca and the past HW's crap for coming back and being St. Bianca. Everything was boring and she was overly sweet and giving too much advice on how to live life bc she was the perfect saint.

Now Pratt brings her back...NOT as the saint she was the past 3-4 times she came back...and everyone is hating on her? Is it bc she's disrupting the Zen world? Is it bc she's backstabbing Kendall, the SAINT herself? How else should Pratt have brought her back in an interesting, unsaintly, unboring way?

Can't have the best of both worlds here! It IS a soap opera. Get used to seeing some drama and not having everything be so perfect. And no, don't use the character assassination excuse on me -- I wouldn't go that far at all.

[Cheap21]

Depends on your interpretation of the word saint. It seems as if you are taking it to mean, simply bc she was a good character. Theres nothing wrong with that. I think most people are referring to how every character on the show perceives Bianca to be a saint. She can do no wrong. All her actions are excused and forgiven and she is seen as the pilar of morality. She buys into that hype and is sanctimonious, judges others and is extremely preachy. What Bianca did to Kendall is horrible, but I dont see her getting much flack for it bc she is the saint of PV. No one will be angry at her aside from Kendall and she'll get a free pass. Thats whats sickening bc had this been another character, she'd be called out on the backstabber that she is. You know, Im no Zendall fan and have been hating on Kendall for the past few months, but I'll call it like I see it. Bianca is dead wrong here and I fully support Kendall ripping her to shreds when she wakes up

And not to mention, but this is completely out of character for Bianca. I cant see her having done something like this. Maybe had she been on the show, and we got to see it play out, but we didnt. All we have is the snapshot of how she was before she left and now this. She isnt being written consistant with how she was in the past.

I agree 100%. Its something different.... I was growing tired of the Sainted Bianca routine myself. I think you hit the nail right on the head, it conflicts with certain fanbase's allegiances, so therefore its not a good story....... I wish more people could watch things objectively.....

[alwaysAMC]

Exactly Adam!

And Cheap - I fully expect and support Kendall being upset and lashing out at this initially. But my point is - the Zendall fans berated and hated on Bianca before she even aired bc of this anti-Zendall-is-love-and-nothing-should-break-that choice she made. Although don't get me started bc Zach is just as much at fault here, yet Zach is still getting a free pass from the Zendall fans.

ANYWAY....I'm just saying - thank God Bianca isn't coming back the same way she came back the last 3-4 times - this Saintly Bianca giving advice. She finally comes with a little drama and layers. Pratt heard our complaints and is acting on that...let's not be greedy...let's not bite the hand that feeds us! Can we not just enjoy our SOAP? Nothing should go right 100% of the time in a soap, or else it wouldn't be a soap.

[marceline]

My only problem so far is that the Pratt seems to be writing Bianca a little tentatively. Maybe its me but they seem to be flipping between St. Binks and Bitchy Binx. For ex: Bianca owning up to why she kept the baby a secret in the same ep she was "mourning" Babe. I hope once Reese appears we can bury St. Binks for good.

[R Sinclair]

Exhibit A of why fanbases should never be allowed to dictate story on soap operas. Lack of objectivity.

[dragonflies]

Well said Cheap

Awww have I offended you? I think I hear tiny violins playing........

Oh and FYI, go read other boards, most are sick of Reese already, cause of the "Reese is so wonderful" crap we're being forcefed and it has NOTHING to do with being a fan of anyone.

So save the holier than thou crap for church

[alwaysAMC]

You never offend me - you just annoy the ever living f*ck outta me with your ridiculous arguments and subjective views on AMC.

[alwaysAMC]

Oh and I also hate how you never answer or speak to the flaws and mistakes made by your beloved characters that make up Zendall.

Please - I'd LOVE to hear your take on Zach's doing in all of this. I'd LOVE to hear you speak to his actions without spinning it to make him be the good guy in all of this. Oh and I'm still waiting to hear you defend Kendall's actions and hypocrisy in the last couple of months without shifting the focus to Annie or Greenlee.
