SoapNet Has A Heart About Programs About Kendall Hart

[Jonathan]

I think she'd be more popular, at least on this board, if she wasn't so overexposed.

I've said this before and I"ll say it again: in the '80s and '90s, Erica was not showcased as frequently as Kendall has been in the last 10 years. It's truly overkill.

Back when Erica was at the height of her popularity AMC was run by individuals who knew how to balance the show and never let any of their characters get too overexposed.

Erica was always just one of the female leads and there were not just 2 of them either. In the early 70's she shared the spotlight with Tara & Ann who were the other 2 main leads with both Ruth and Phoebe getting quite a bit of air time too along with Mary & Kitty.

In the latter part of the 70's, Erica shared the spotlight with Ruth who really got more air time then than the early 70's. Tara was still running strong along with Donna and for awhile still Ann, Kitty, and Estelle too. Also Brooke was really starting to come into her own.

Then the 80's brought Brooke, Nina, Daisy, Donna, Jenny, Opal, Natalie, Liza, Ellen, and Angie who all got a lot of air time along with Erica.

AMC really knew back then how to balance their leads back then. All the decades AMC has had some strong female characters but I think the ladies of the 80's were the best. So many of them bounced back and forth from lead to supporting all the time. They were all great characters and all were very well cast.

Hey Kyle. This is for All the Posters. I think SoapNet is Having This Kendall Hart Marathan and having These Episodes because Kendall who is Alicia will Wake Up and Come out of her Coma. That is why They have Episodes of Alicia Minshew because She is Coming Back and Sarah Michelle Gellar is not the Kendall that will Wake up and come out of her Coma. It wouldn't make Sense to have Episodes of Sarah Michelle Gellar. This is Also Why They are not having An Erica Marathan. Alicia is Returning to All My Children after Taking Time off to be Married and Kendall is Coming out of the Coma. It's not Erica that is Coming out of A Coma or that Susan Lucci had been off the Show and Returning to the Show. Jody

They had that awesome Erica marathon 3 or so years back thank god I got it all on DVR

I agree at least one or two SMG Kendall eps woul dbe nice--fans are smart enought o know two actresses played the role sheesh

[SteveFrame]

It might be a big deal if Alicia had actually been gone. Most people don't even know she was off work. Since she has been shown during her off time more than many actors who are still working during this time.

So a marathon to celebrate her coming back to the show is stupid.

To celebrate kendall waking up from a coma should have included all of Kendall's story and that includes her story when SMG played her.

And Kendall is Kendall

Kendall is not SMG and she is not Alicia

They are just the actresses who played her.

[All My Shadows]

This starts in about 15 minutes. I'll watch the first two episodes because I never got to see Kendall's first month back in town from 02, and I was also one of the biggest Cambias murder mystery fangirls.

The rest? Eh. Can do without.

[dragonflies]

It's weird seeing J Eddie Peck as Jake LOL

Leo!!!!!!!!!

[alwaysAMC]

I just turned this on -- the first episode when Kendall is back in 2002. LOVED this Kendall - Alicia does this character much better than the newer/nicer Kendall. She is just pure entertaining when she's a little evil. I've forgotten how good she was back in the day.

Chris Stamp -- oh god. Mia --- OH GOD.

The old openings!!! Damn, Jacob Young is so hot in this opening...

Oh wow - Erica was having some hair trouble in this second episodes - that frizzy curl do (a la Dixie circa 1999) doesn't work for her.

[Cheap21]

Oh crap I dont watch SN so I compltely forgot about this. Would have loved to have seen teh firs tone

Mia! Man I hated her, but Ive grown into such an Amelia Heinlee fan now thanks to Y&R

The opening! I love how the beat from the opening segment blended into the opening. Oh how I missed that

Eww, I didnt even remember this. She does look a mess. She has some nerve talking to Justin about his hair...lol

[alwaysAMC]

Oh me too! It was so short lived during this time....I really loved it from the 1990-1995 openings. I wish they could bring that back!

[Cheap21]

Mia to Greenlee: "No, I wont let you chase after Ryan. Its ridiculous...its juvenile!"

LMAO, years later things have NOT changed

Greenlee: "Sorry I dont do victim"

Unfortunetly thats something that has changed

LOL...at Kendall claiming to be pregnant while wearing a VERY skin tight red dress

[alwaysAMC]

I know - this Greenlee was still fiesty and I loved it.

God - Could Mia be any more pathetic, whiny, and annoying?

Oh and Juan Pablo - *shudders*

[Cheap21]

yeah Mia reminded me why I hated her. Pretty bad acting there with bad writing.

I liked Juan Pablo and I liked him Greens. Yeah I know Im the only one

Good lord this was back when I REALLY hate Ryan with a passion. Look at him grabbing Kendall, getting all up in her business and demanding to know the truth which is NONE of his business

[alwaysAMC]

Ugh I know --- he cannot keep his hands off Kendall - pushing her around, not to mention when she's claiming that she's pregnant. What an ass...And Ryan is still that way today. This was the beginning of THAT Ryan. Once Gillian died, he turned into this...I guess thanks to him getting with Kendall, or the writer? Anyway - it sucks and Ryan has been ruined.

I'll never forget being in Mexico on vacation in 2003 and seeing Juan Pablo in a Spanish commercial...haha.

[Angela]

I remember he must have grabbed/pullerd her by her arm about 12 timed during that episode. Bully.

I liked them too.
