Other than helping to ruin a decent soap, I have little to no history with her. I guess kudos to her for avoiding my radar more than the truly wretched Rachel (who has stunk up the airwaves for 30 years) and her dead-eyed, failed politician husband with closet case vibes.

The only Hersheys I have heard of are Barbara Hershey and Hershey's chocolate. That other person, I have never heard of. (Shrugs)

 

Speaking of vapid Rachel and her googley-eyed husband Sean, my favorite Real World scenes involved Sean being left looking foolish by Kameelah in the Boston firehouse. Boy, I bet even the mention of Kamala's name gives him ptsd of him getting his ass handed to him by way of a public dressing down delivered by Kameelah.

Putin will have them tortured and killed. This is very brave of them, especially since they likely know it will accomplish nothing but are trying anyway. 

 

Fathead Newt Gingrich is now trying to compare them to Trump supporters in his latest attempt to get Trump free of any punishment for his many crimes. Just when you think these pieces of garbage can't get any more craven, they find a new level.

 Her father, before devoting himself full time to trying to keep Longshot in the Mojoverse, left office scandal-ridden and unpopular. She has zero accomplishments to her name, zero charisma, zero brains in her oversized head. The only thing anyone ever remembers her for, beyond never being able to find a dress that properly fit, was getting kicked out of a restaurant and being humiliated so badly by a standup comic at a press club dinner that they never had one again. She couldn't even manage to make a facial expression that didn't look like someone had just belched the contents of a rotting refrigerator right in front of her.

Maybe back when Huckabee was popular...now...not so much. I could tell stories of how people are OVER that name. 

 

But I do think that someone bad will get the position. Sadly.

 

Amen on Barbara Hershey who is overdue another resurrection after the success of BLACK SWAN and the INSIDIOUS movies.

 

And mmmmmm BOSTON: RW, the first and best season of RW I saw. Kameelah, Jason, and Cyrus even came to my college campus as part of the RW tour that year. I was in awe of her awesomeness. 

 

 

Now...I think The Orange One has better things to worry about than picking on a scientist. Doesn't he have a trial starting tomorrow...

    • Beth #1 being recast right before she and Eric come face to face was jarring.  We spent the first 50 episodes or so getting to know Beth and see her rapport with her kids, co worker, and even her mother in law. Her Beth seemed content with her kids and job as caterer, but you could tell she also had a faraway look that you just knew meant that she dreamed of what life would have been like had she and Eric gotten together.   Plus, she came across as someone that you could see eventually moving into more wealthy circles based on her demeanor.   Seeing Beth always looking off into space probably helped fuel Brooke's dreams of wealth because she saw how unfulfilled her mother was.  Once Beth was recast starting in episode 52, that whole vibe completely changed and Beth #2 seemed to almost like living the middle class life.. and that her Beth would feel ill at ease around wealth, etc.
    • I agree.  I've always chalked it up to the fact that DALLAS had been a pop culture phenomenon for many years and that viewers, including viewers who'd stop watching years before, were tuning in one last time to say goodbye. Also agree that it was interesting to see KL finish 27th for the week.  Any show doing that well after 12 seasons is a miracle, lol.
    • I don't know anything BTS, but your theory seems reasonable.
    • In comparison to Maurice Johnson, sure, but he's still... stiff AF. "Leaps and bounds" is a strong exaggeration as well. Watching him is like watching paint dry. I'd recast him next, ASAP.
    • Yes! Andre easily could have just been a hunk with no real depth (like Derek) but his character is rounding out very nicely.
    • They're contract; anyone in the opening is a contract player.
    • I was watching an episode last night and noticed that Pictionary is taped in Atlanta. It's just a walk for Chandler to the studios.

    • my vote goes to Eden (Belle)! She single handed carried that show on her back !! Best family will probably be The Dingles! I have to say 2024-2025 was a mixed bag on all of them soaps ! But if I had to say which one would be the best I would give it to Emmerdale for Belle/Tom’s storyarc. It went on for too long but at least was written properly compared to others. But I do think Corrie will win best soap for Mason’s storyline  Best storyline… I wish it would be Belle and tom but the abuse story from Hollyoaks will take that 100%
    • I have to push back on this. I just don't believe it. I don't believe MVJ or anyone at BTG operates that way -- seeing a performance in reveal scenes and saying "That actor has to go." If that's the case, why aren't they doing that with other actors? We all know Maurice Johnson is FAR from the weakest actor on this soap. My feeling is that Keith Robinson became available and that someone from BTG wanted him badly from the beginning. I think this recasting was all about Robinson and not about Johnson at all. Yep, and anyone who can't see that isn't paying attention. Calling Brandon Claybon the worst actor on the show is laughable. Tomas, Ashley, and Derek might be recurring, but they're also key characters, so leaving them out of this actor discussion doesn't work. They get plenty of screen time and are on contract. The only way your narrative works about BC being the worst on the show is to ignore the rest of the cast.
