AMC: week of May 4-9

I have never understood why people are so uptight about weekly threads when it comes to AMC..... I have no problem with them, and actually prefer it since sometimes daily threads don't show up until 6 or 7 hrs after the episode has aired :lol:

I'm cool with whatever---weekly, daily, makes no difference to me:).

Man, those Rendall pseudo-shower scenes were positively fakey-fakey and nauseating. In fact, that's the Rendall relationship to a "T". Is anyone buying them this go-round? Neither actor is into it AT ALL, and it shows, IMO. I'm sure they've been told it's temporary (at least I hope so), so there's no use getting invested.

I like Marissa so far and she works well with BE and VI....I agree though that she seems fragile somehow. It'll be interesting to see her in a romance--perhaps with JR, since he can never seem to be free of Carey trash.

Sit down. <_<

I agree. We would've had 10 pages alone for last week's thread. That's way too much to be sifting through to find out what people are talking about concerning which episode. If I want to find out what my fellow fans thought about one particular episode, I click on that thread. I don't understand how that lacks common sense.

Trick, please. :rolleyes: Child, don't make me cut a bitch up in hurr. :mad:

Case in point, this week's Y&R thread is already at 12 pages. It's Monday!

Some shows are just more talked about on SON that others are. It's got nothing to do with being "special on a stick." It fluctuates. Once upon a time, DAYS was hot [!@#$%^&*] 'round these here parts.

:wub: !

Now back to the show...

Today was ok - it slowed down a bit from last week. I'm tired of Ian and his problems AND how he magically brings Zendall back together. :puke:

I really am enjoying Marissa more and more each day. She's fragile like Brianne (Colby), but she's way much better and really acts well against VI and BE. She's not an opposite of Bri, but then again she kind of is! If that makes any sense....

The random Scott/Erica scenes were actually very nice! I loved the Cindy talk, and how Erica could feel his pain through her own mother's loss. I love seeing Erica work against almost the entire cast lately!

Exactly. There's no need to entertain that person's needless resentment. "Something special on a stick?" I mean, really. It's not as if an edict came down from SON that stated: "From now on, all soap threads, except for the Angelic All My Children, shall only post in weekly or monthly digests!" This is what works for the majority of us who watch and post about AMC. What's the problem? :unsure:

        If the standard of play in the women's final yesterday wasn't of the highest caliber, that is not something you could say about today's final. It was absolutely fantastic tennis. 
    • When Barbara's letter was read (partly in Barbara's voice), there was commenting upthread that Barbara's voice is similar to the voice of Naomi's unhoused client June.  It did sound like her.  June is played by Jasmine Burke.  Per closing credits, Barbara was voiced by Sherita Bolden.  Still possible that they are connected. From our discussion on the May thread:  Looks and/or voices similar between June, Haley, and Tracy.   Tracy looks like Debbi Morgan. LOL so June might be connected to Haley, Tracy, or Barbara; and/or Samantha&Tyrell. I love that we don't know!
    • In the 1987 episodes, Mary has wonderful conversations with MJ and Cheryl. This is a realistic family with believable dynamics. Mary's ambivalence towards Vince is played nicely. Denise Alexander is so good here. I don't know what happened that the writers or producers just decided to chuck it all away. I don't FF these scenes. The show had a strong family that could have had years of storyline and they did nothing with them. I really don't get it. 
    • I can't speak for Sonni, but I thought Annie came off as neurotic from very early on. That's just how Cynthia Watros plays her parts, and the writing went along. I don't think Claire was mentally ill - they claimed she had a brain tumor, didn't they? I am never sure just why they made the effort given that she was leaving anyway. 
    • @DeeVee Claire is a perfect example. So many women came to Springfield as competent, smart, and talented professionals. Then they’d attract a so-called “good guy,” get dumped, and spiral into complete chaos. What always strikes me is how clearly it plays like a male fantasy—yet it was written and sold to a female audience.  I'm not a content expert, but I don't think cis gendered women fantasize about losing control of their mental faculties in response to an orgasm. Similar to Holly's story, it seems repulsive, because I don't believe women fantasize about becoming more vulnerable and appealing to men after they've been assaulted.
    • I just watched some parts of an episode of GL where Roger has just been shot by Holly. Rita then admits to Hillary that Roger raped her. Kasdorf is such a fantastic actress. I wish there were more of her work available. 
    • -- Alex Alegria has almost a full sleeve tattoo on one arm and a large tatt on one pec. I see no indication that the show is covering up his ink,
    • Didn't Carrie2 even seduce a minor? Ick. Oh, yeah, and she even tried to seduce Alan, but this was his post-prison era when he was trying to prove to everyone he had changed. It's funny that of all people he didn't go for it. Wait. Josh had an affair with Vanessa? Or she just thought he did? I know people always say "it's just a soap" but the way mental illness is portrayed on soaps (and that goes for pretty much all of them) has always been not great, especially PPD. They practically turned Claire into The Joker. She also was trying to seduce men. (I notice that now Mary Ryan Munisteri is listed as co HW with Ryder in the 1986 episodes, Claire has calmed down a lot. Never thought her GL career was very good but seems like she tried to course correct that a bit).
    • sss Ms. Tunie is a goddess. I feel all the anger, pride, sadness, arrogance, dignity, fear, love, and other emotions in everything she does as Anita.
