AMC: "Daughters of Fine Lineage"

Anyone else remember Phoebe's woman's club The Daughters of Fine Lineage ?

OMG, those DLF meetings that Phoebe held at her house were hilarious. Enid and Marion were also members, as well as Phoebe's friend Juanita Ramsey.

They should bring this angle back to Pine Valley. I miss the snobby blue blood characters.

We never saw Juanita but I thought it would have been a cute nod to history to have one of her granddaughters round out the group of "hot girls" Lily had to contend with. It could still work if they give Greenlee and Madison more Pine Valley friends from boarding school.

(As a child I assumed Juanita was a negress. :ph34r: )

I could have sworn Juanita was shown a couple times -- like at the club meetings.

Maybe I'm getting her confused with someone else, though.

I distinctively remember a scene with Phoebe having a DFL meeting at her house and all the women sitting around drinking tea.... and Phoebe spiking hers with alcohol. LMAO!

They were discussing an adult book store that just opened in Pine Valley and they wanted to get it shut down.

You could be right, but I just remember Phoebe mentioning her, "My dear friend Juanita Ramsey..." God, when you quote Phoebe you just have to do the voice aloud (and dart your eyes to the prompter), words on a page don't do her justice. :P

Awww, the 25th. Ruth Warrick was a very attractive older lady. She went down so fast, doctors say that breaking a hip is a major blow to a senior's overall health. :(

Langley and Myrtle actually sound a little alike. ;)

No, we never saw Juanita. The only member of her family I can recall seeing onscreen was when Phoebe tried to set Cecily up with her grandson.

I think they should have brought her on for Phoebe's funeral played by Agnes Nixon herself!

    • I don't expect Lois to be the same person she was 25 years ago, but she's definitely lost a lot of what made Lois unique.  It's clear the show doesn't know how to write for her, and the sole purpose of Lois is to hide this Gio secret.  It's a shame she doesn't interact with more of the canvas.  It's a waste of Rena's talents. I like Brook Kerr most of the time.  She can be hit or miss.  I totally get what you are saying about her line readings too.  I honestly think the character really suffers being stuck in the Curtis pairing.  She's much better than Tanisha Harper's Jordan lol.
    • Friday and yesterday's episode is what daytime television should be. The other shows airing could take a page from yesterday's show.  I loved the rage, hurt and anger Nicole unleashed on Ted.  Daphnee should be up for an Emmy nom for these scenes.  It broke my heart to see how Dana had locked Eva out.  I do feel sorry for Eva.    I am still bumfuzzled as to why Leslie/Dana went to the DuPree's and asked them to accept Kat UNLESS Eva is really Kat's twin (and really Nicole and Ted's daughter that maybe they though they lost or an embryo Dana/Leslie stole??) I loved how Anita and Vernon both shot her down.    Ohhh and let me just say Friday and yesterday was the MOST fire I have seen Martin have since the show started.  Maybe Brandon Clayborn is coming into his own with the role finally.    
    • You've been seeing him all along. You just didn't know it was him, I guess.

    • Where to for Dana? She's pissed off the Duprees (most of the cast), alienated her daughter and will she be welcomed by the Have Nots at the diner? Maybe she can befriend Ashley and Derek and liven up their story.
    • Melissa Ordway announced she was moved to recurring back in November but is still credited with the contract cast members.
    • I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.  
    • So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows. 
    • The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.
    • So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.
