Members Soapsuds Posted November 23, 2009 Members Share Posted November 23, 2009 LOL..remember it's November sweeps too. I hadnt watched B&B since early August and tuned in today cause I am off from work. I thought the show was pretty good. I know some were complaining about the character dying too fast but it didnt bother me since i havent watched. I felt Betty White was dying too...lol....touching show.

Members DRW50 Posted November 23, 2009 Members Share Posted November 23, 2009 I was going to watch this but she was already dead before I could tune in. I wonder if we will get any of those "artistic" swimming with mermaids or Joker makeup, or whatever that was, dream sequences like we got with Katie and Storm...

Members P.J. Posted November 23, 2009 Members Share Posted November 23, 2009 Well, I doubt Betty swims. It was hokey enough having her die on a bed at the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members y&r_fan Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 :o Holy effing crap. I cannot believe anyone is bashing Alley Mills of all people. Alley Mills. People do that? It's not against the law? I think I need to go and lie down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 I thought it was really not good that in the aftermath of Ann's death, Stephanie got an episode with her family...but no Pam. Steffy quickly started lusting after Bill again. Sigh. One truly senses that this is basically the end of it. Emmy shows are in the can; Ann will likely never get mentioned again.

Members P.J. Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 I admit---it was a little weird seeing Lesli as Felicia, when I've been watching her as ATWT's Molly for a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 What two episodes will they submit? Friday and Monday or Monday and Tuesday? I think they may have to simply go with Monday's episode because Friday and Tuesday weren't nearly strong enough. Overall I think this is a bust. Ann didn't need to die and I feel like her return was a waste. I wish she could just come every now and then and torment her daughters. When Stephanie eventually comes out I'd like Ann to be there making fun of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 I think it was a 4 episode arc, not 2, but I'm wondering since Betty is 83, if she would have been up to a thirty day arc of episodes. Daytime is grueling. I understand B&B shoots 2 episodes her day. It's a lot for a lady of Betty's age to deal with, so maybe the show was just being considerate of her. Or maybe she didn't want to commit to more than a short return. There are always other considerations besides the usual "the writers are dropping the ball on this, or wouldn't it be more powerful if it had been stretched out?" I think Ann's return was in keeping with the character, and the show handled her death with beauty and grace. I can't help but compare all the hype about GH and James Franco, and tuning in to witness yet another mob shootout, and more senseless killing. I like how B&B used its "guest star" to share a human story. One that is identifiable to many in its audience. It's what soaps do best, and B&B did this one really well.

Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 I think it was a beautiful setting, and a perfect ending for Ann's character. I don't see anything hokey about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted November 25, 2009 Members Share Posted November 25, 2009 I guess I'm in the minority but Leslie Kay just doesn't do it for me as Felicia. I'm glad they didn't put her with Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 Pam just lost her mother (today?), and she is already onto this Catwalk bullsh!t??? Really? This is again what I hate about this show. I also hate that Whip has been established as a seasoned PR professional...but his rival is this slip of a girl Steffy. What disrespect to Whip and his profession. And Texas Battle serves no function other than to stand in the sidelines and applaud?? I'd rather have death, suicide and heart transplants than this eyerolling stuff. I'm also somehow uncomfortable with the internet dating stuff. My preference would be for it not to be a romance, but a cautionary tale about the kind of skeeves you can meet on the internet. ETA: "Leisure suit" and "Medical Profession" cued it for me...is Taylor's date that geek from the lab who was after Bridget?? Why couldn't they have used Thorne, Rocco, or Jake for this internet date role? ETA2: Brad Bell is trying to run Hunter Tylo off this show, isn't he??
