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:

    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
    • Sally Spencer was a decent actress, but the writing destroyed the "M.J." that Kathleen Layman had built. Layman had a quiet strength about her, and she and Osburn really felt like sisters. Spencer's character should have been either an unmentioned sister, or maybe Jake's that grew up close to Kathleen, M.J. and the rest, but was away for a few years before joining the force. Kristen Marie was o.k., but I always got a mousier vibe from her. Being pigeon-holed with Scott for most of the run hurt things for her, as well.  The Loves were also underserved between Rhonda Lewin and Philece Sampler. Philece would have been better as Nicole. Thank goodness Anne Heche  showed up for the next round of auditions. Christopher Holder was mediocre as Peter, but given a shot, I think Marcus Smythe could have stuck around for a while.  I would have had Peggy Lazarus be a Frame -- possibly an ex-wife for Vince with an agenda. Smythe and Hollen had  a fun chemistry that could have kept the two around.. Bringing recasts for  Cheryl and Ben back mixing it up with other Frames. Corys, Lawrences at the time might have kept all the families stronger. 
    • shoot...he said in that Locher room with Krista. I think he met her before that---she was doing Broadway and they had mutual friends or an agent maybe?
    • Yes. And I assume he met Mary Ellen Stuart at GL.
