This was ok, but compared to the previous anniversary retrospectives, it comes up woefully short.

Nothing will compare to AMC's 20th anniversary retrospective in my book. They kept it very simple, focusing on what viewers loved and remembered most.

Go away, Randi. I don't care about your sob story.

Myrtle and Mona. Awwww... Wonderful actresses and characters. I miss them both.

Palmer has aged, but it is good to see him.

Brooke! A Laura mention.

Shut it, KWAK. I cheered when Babe died.

Mateo and Maria remembering Julia was sad. A needless death.

Too bad Adam didn't get a real chance to mourn Stuart. I almost teared up when Hayley hugged Adam.

Oh, I just loved this episode. Brought back great memories.

Just thought about this: Erica spoke about Kendall, Bianca, even Mona, but not even her deceased son Josh . That was sort of wrong...I wish he could have been recognized by her, she could have had a breakdown during the death sequence of the talk show like Maria did over Julia, Adam did over Stuart, JR and Krystal over Babe....

I don't blame Erica. I wouldn't want to remember the unabortion either.

+1 (times 1,000).

I know..but still, would have been nice. He was her son and all! That abortion rewrite was such a mistake, but Josh became a real character and he and Erica had somewhat of a bond. And when he died, Erica didn't seem to have that much of an emotional reaction. Today's show could have been the time to release any strong sadness she had over that...I would look at Erica differently if she would have done that. Oh well.

I'm watching for a second time.

So glad that KWAK realizes she's a grandmother, and openly calls Little A her "Grandbaby".

Erica should hang out with KWAK more.

Go away, Randi. I don't care about your sob story.

Once I saw her on, I changed the the channel quick. Can't stand that character.

LOVED IT!

Greg was creepy. All in black, the pose, the way he was saying his lines-- "Your hometown....it's with you for life. But you see this gun? It means your life is over".

LOL! That moustache did kinda throw me. He looked more '80s than he did in the '80s.

Who's Josh? Erica only has two kids, Kendall and Bianca. She did have an abortion in the 70s and suffered two miscarriages in the 80s and 90s. But she only has two kids.

I didn't think I would like this very much when I read that the show would be done in a documentary style and that there wouldn't be any character interaction with the returning characters. However, I was thoroughly surprised with it - it was really well done. There were plenty of flashlacks and I enjoyed what a lot of the characters had to say. Agnes reading the poem at the end was the perfect ending, I'm glad AMC uses it on important episodes like this. Well done AMC.

I think Greg moved away and became an 80s porn star.

I can't tell if your joking or not??

But Josh was the child that Erica aborted in the 70's...resulting in an unabortion I guess you would say, a guy named Josh Madden comes to town in June 2005, it was revealed later that he was her unaborted son, his embry tooken by Dr. Greg Madden and implanted into his wife, a story rewrite from the writer's that I think undid groundbreaking history.....4 years later he was shot by Zach Slater in that casino...Kendall got his heart....he never got a funeral.....Josh...

Again, if you were joking by that answer, I will feel very dumb
