But Bashioum...something that was absolutely true in the beginning, and most of the time thereafter....seldom smiled. That totally worked for me, given her background.

Thus, I loved that Clementine Ford was not "perky, pretty Mac" (we had that)...but scowly-sulky Mac. It makes total sense that the horrors of Darfur would have affected her looks and her behavior.

I love that she's not classically "pretty". I think that will encourage the writers to go a little deeper.

You are totally the boss on these looks issues. The only thing I noticed were those bags under the eyes. They were shocking, given how young she is.

Mom Cybill also tends to have that round face.

It is totally fine with me if she is not classically pretty and looks "lived in". Billy Miller, too, is not classically handsome. I'll be delighted if the return of the prodigal/signature couple is cast with folks who can act...and who don't look so "soapy"

But Kay and Murph seemed to be sharing a room.

Are they -- gulp -- having SEX ?!?!?!?!

I am totally in favor of her not being classically 'pretty'...the same goes for Billy Miller, he is not what you'd call 'handsome'...they're both attractive and look 'lived in' but the difference between Miller and Ford is that Miller looks polished and Ford looks burnt out...when you start looking like Mackenzie Browning, Darfur prostitute and mission aid worker saving lives while slinging hash, you've got yourself a problem!

She needs a little tweaking, literally give me a weekend and she'd be fabulous.

I agree they definitely need to trim the cast and if they aren't going to write for Paul and his family then they should just let them go also. I'd still like to see the meddling Mary Williams even if for a brief appearance.

Interesting! I haven't thought about that possibility either; Chloe is the desperate type and there was something in her expression today when she found out about Mac and Billy's past.

I'm agreeing with MarkH on Mac, who knows what she saw in Dufar and it could have aged her therefore the possible answer as to why Ford was cast since she does look a bit older. It's working for me.

Jill despising Katherne and cutting off their relationship...Hate it. Although the way it was written, it wasnt so bad bc Jess Walton really sold it to me. Still I hope this isnt permanent

The Billy/Mac stuff seems so forced. She shows up just as he gets married, just as its revealed they arent cousins and now so many people are trying to push them back together. Um, whatever. I hate that they are making Chloe to yet again be the big loser here.

Speaking of losers, what the hell was TASP doing at the wedding? Someone seriously needs to get a life

LOL...loved Nick ripping into Phyllis

Sharon, you are a hot mess. I really felt bad for Jack there. Ive finally started to like them, only as they are divorcing. Still its best they are apart. Hoping for her to reunite with Nick

Cheap, you actually liked Kay and Jill's "loving" relationship? I've seen a few comment on this, but never really explain why they enjoyed it. To me if always felt so forced and it limited Jess and Jeanne as actors. I'd love to hear your insight.

    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
    • Lulu and Dante were divorced before her coma, but she was still in love with him.  He just didn't know.  They haven't been married for years.    I was pretty mixed about Lulu getting involved when it was just a child out there in the world, but now that she realizes it's Gio I am okay with her telling Dante.  It also is her son's sibling.  I still think it's BLQ's choice though.  Lulu is in a rough spot because I think Dante will be mad if she keeps it a secret and Chase, Brook, Lois, etc will be mad if Lulu tells. Without veering too far into the classic area of the show, I had no problem with Robin telling AJ about Michael.  It may not have *exactly* been her place, but she could see how Carly was manipulating the entire situation.  It also ruined her romantic relationship with Jason for good.  Jason and Sonny were furious with Robin and practically ran her out of town, so I think we were to believe she was the bad guy.  It was a bit out of character for Robin to spill, but KMc was leaving the show.
    • Rewatching/binging THE X-FILES Seasons 1 and 2 (almost done). So much fun re-experiencing, especially re-discovering some of the monster-of-the-week stories. THE WEST WING Seasons 1 and 2 as well - so good to rewatch now with 20 years more life experience and understanding. ALSO.... lol FOOTBALLERS' WIVES Season 3, which is just as bonkers as I remember and so so so so fun. I had forgotten about that iconic season cliffhanger. Good times. Excited to rewatch Seasons 4 and 5 since I remember so very little about them. Hope you've been enjoying!
    • @Toups Tyler Topits listed in alpha order with the breakdown writers 5/12 Monday episode. O'Connor still listed as both breakdown and script writer. Kreizman wrote today's script.
    • Marland was long gone by this point.  He quit in either August/September 1982. I think it was due to letting the actress play out her contract and use her for party scenes and/or scenes with Phillip/Justin.   I was surprised she was still on in June 1983 myself, because I figured she had been written out before Pam Long joined the writing staff. Thankfully, having episodes uploaded during this period on Spauldingfield YT site has helped to connect some of the dots.  It looks as though Pam Long starts the first week or so of May 1983.. and in those first few weeks: Morgan and Evie were both written off and Lillian/Mindy/Billy/Beth/Annabelle all come onto the show.    
    • @MaximThis really  old song popped into my head this morning ....
