Members Guiding Life Posted October 16, 2020 Members Share Posted October 16, 2020 I'm completing a binge watch of 1998 (a terrible year, by the way. Once Cynthia Watros left, things got really weird) and I'm annoyed by all the love triangles focused on a man. - Harley/Phillip/Beth - Drew/Jessie/Michelle - Reva/Josh/Annie - Cassie/Hart/Dinah - Vanessa/Matt/Beth - Jenna/Buzz/Selena (looks like this is coming) I'm sure I've left some out. The only women on this show who seem to have been at the center of a triangle that I can recall are Blake (between Ross and Ben) and Holly (between Roger and Fletcher - who took her baby and left). Something in that Norris blood, perhaps? Sean (dude from the island) digs Reva, but she's not having it, so there's no real triangle there (as of the November episodes I'm viewing). I'm surprised to see that I'm not hating Signy Coleman as much as I thought I would. She's not Watros or Annie, but she's entertained me a few times. While I like Reva most of the time, I don't mind watching others get over on her now and again. The show often had her win too easily for my tastes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aback Posted October 16, 2020 Members Share Posted October 16, 2020 Ugh. That's why I've stopped watching these reunions. Alan just drives me mad. So many wasted opportunities for nice content. So frustrating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted October 16, 2020 Members Share Posted October 16, 2020 I think they are often still worth watching, and I’m thankful he started this series. He gets good people, and it’s wonderful to take this walk down memory lane. But it’s indeed frustrating to see him so often get in his own way and also not adjust his approach. He’s not very intuitive about when to interject with comments from the audience and when to let things flow, almost like he’s not very present or even really listening. Sometimes I feel like he’s uncomfortable not contributing to the conversation when it’s like, hey, we’re glad you organized this, now just take a backseat and let your participants chat amongst themselves sometimes. We’re here for them, not you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Asb23 Posted October 16, 2020 Members Share Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) I agree. I’m so happy he is doing these that I can overlook the not-so-great interview skills. I was watching an episode from 1992 last night and counting how many actors from then he has brought on to his reunions and it was practically everyone who is still alive. I think it’s so great and thanks to him, I’m reinvested in a soap I watched 30 years ago. I do wish he’d let them drive the conversation though (and come up with some new questions).

victoria foxton Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) Alan looks like his getting a BJ. So glad that Judi has recovered. Edited October 22, 2020 by victoria foxton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 22, 2020 Members Share Posted October 22, 2020 I don't like Alan using a green screen and popping his logo in. It is very distracting. Also it seems Alan audio is lagging. Judi looks great! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members antmunoz Posted October 22, 2020 Members Share Posted October 22, 2020 I thought Alan was going to wear this for the reunion. You know he still has the shirt! Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mitch Posted October 22, 2020 Members Share Posted October 22, 2020 Bwhahaha...that pictue is so 1984 and I cant make fun of him as I laugh at my own pics from that time. I do love these reunions of all the actors without makeup or lighting...aging hits all of us. What is seen can not be unseen..thanks for that thought! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
