Members soapfan770 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Members Share Posted September 27, 2009 The biggest continuity error has been the fact that the whole thing about all of Adam's misdeeds was supposed to be kept secret from Tom and Margo. This was the reason why Casey wasn't forthcoming about the truth behind his crossing state lines and may have spared him the prison time. Yet at some point Tom and Margo all the sudden knew of the atrocities Adam had committed and were very appalled. I feel bad for Casey I can understand Margo but I feel Tom should be harsher--dredge up some of that contempt for Hal he use to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Actor87 Posted September 27, 2009 Members Share Posted September 27, 2009 Jade and Dallas are still in Oakdale as far as I know. The roles are recurring, though. Aaron is recurring also, which is why it upset me when he returned for the funeral. He didn't even mention where he's been. A character's exit should always be somehow addressed, IMHO, so that the audience isn't left hanging/wondering. J.J., however, was sent to boarding school and that was explained on-screen when it happened. In the mean time, we've never heard anything about where John, Jessica, or Ben went when they left Oakdale (or that they even left). As far as I know, no one has mentioned anything. That's what I thought was the case with Adam; I thought he just kinda vanished from Oakdale after the whole cabin incident. No one ever said where he went. I might be wrong, though.... I don't know.

Members soapfan770 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Members Share Posted September 27, 2009 Dallas was on a few weeks ago for a couple scenes dealing with James' arrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted September 28, 2009 Members Share Posted September 28, 2009 In my mind, Aaron, Dallas, and Jade are having an offscreen love triangle. I always wanted them to try putting Aaron and Elena Goode's Jade together... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members P.J. Posted September 28, 2009 Members Share Posted September 28, 2009 I know I should find some reason to object to the total recharacterization of Janet as some ultra-religious, controlling, manipulative Momma who would rather force her daughter to carry a child she doesn't want than listen to her child and let her make a decision that impacts the rest of her life....but since I don't GAS about Janet, and I'd much rather see Libs, Parker and eventually Carly all open cans and cans of Whoop Ass on her sanctimonious bee-hind....I'll live with her obnoxious behavior. While some no doubt find Jack and Brad's 'tudes just as bad...sorry--anyone who trusts the "change" in Paul and Em needs their head examined. Uh...to say the Craig/Ro stuff was the polar opposite of sexy was an understatement. Lindstrom seems to take the "vacuum hose" approach to kissing---and he looks like a dead mackerel smackin' up on poor Rosanna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Actor87 Posted September 28, 2009 Members Share Posted September 28, 2009 I don't trust the change with Paul/Emily. I know TIIC will find a way to mess it up; they always do. However, I am very welcome to the change. I was gonna cry bloody hell if I had to put up with one more innocent tween getting flucked by Emily; or one more psychotic act of behavior/manipulation/whining/kidnapping by a flare-nosed Paul. The change in character is welcome, but no, I don't trust it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 28, 2009 Members Share Posted September 28, 2009 I don't trust the writers to not ruin Emily again. I don't trust the writers to not completely ruin Damian again. I don't trust the writers to not ruin Adam again. I'm so anxious. I guess Carol Burnett was right when she called this As the Stomach Churns. I do think the girl who plays Allison has improved, or as others have said, perhaps I've just gotten used to her. I'm still enjoying Stuart Damon's intro to the show, he makes the Juicy Janet family more tolerable for me. And I like the Craig/Audrey scenes, even though I know it's unfair to ATWT fans to push this GH/PC couple. I guess since they aren't really a couple on here, and ATWT isn't marketing them and shoving them at people the way AMC did with Beth Ehlers and RPG, it doesn't bother me that much. Overall I think Lynn and Stuart are working out better than I thought they would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted September 29, 2009 Members Share Posted September 29, 2009 I disagree about NB, i think shes fantastic. But ITA about the writing. I agree. I loved seeing Maddie back and AC just fits so well and is refreshing to watch IMHO. I really wish she hadnt played 2nd middle to the much overrated Jen Landon for so long. I agree. This would be great. I think its a combo. IMHO shes improved a bit, but not much. Overall im used to her in the role now. I actually much prefer her to the awful actress they had in the role. I really miss Peyton List's Lucy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 29, 2009 Members Share Posted September 29, 2009 Do you mean Jessica Dunphy? I was never that fond of her either. I hated all the huge rewrites they did to Susan's history to try to prop her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted September 29, 2009 Members Share Posted September 29, 2009 Yes, her, she was awful. I see she hasnt done anything but 1 spot on a tv show since leaving either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 29, 2009 Members Share Posted September 29, 2009 She did have some screen presence, but the character was such a mess (and that whole teen scene was such a contrived mess). Then they put her with the Chris who looked old enough to be her father. I had a lot of problems with ATWT in those years. The show isn't exactly great now but perhaps my expectations are lower, but I do enjoy the show more right now. This current actress reminds me more of what Alison probably would have been, as she was raised by the reformed version of Susan. I wish she had more edge but I don't mind that she doesn't.

Members All My Shadows Posted September 29, 2009 Members Share Posted September 29, 2009 Jessica Dunphy was okaaaay but I don't get all of the love that some people have/had for her. Marnie S. at least seems alive, though I wish they could have kept a little of Alison's porn star/meth addict edge. I don't like my Stewart women being all goody-goody.
