Members Eric83 Posted May 26, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 I just saw Lily's scenes from yesterday, and I couldnt help but laugh. I cant believe this cancer storyline is STILL going on, can they just cure her and move on? Damn... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 good lord, so we can have her playing even more characters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 Exactly, Cheap. ;-) And the climax of the big Emily/Emilia/Imogene story? Patty, of all people, being the one to talk her down, so to speak. Thus, redeeming Patty while saving Emily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 I blame the soap press. After Patty had gone completely bananas they would say "I hope they find a way to keep Stacey Haiduk". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 I blame Maria's ego. After all, it is her vision that counts, and she is NEVER. WRONG. [/sarcasm] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeeeDee Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 What's sad is how marginalized Olivia is & how emasculated Neil, Malcolm & Devon are (ESPECIALLY with The Ostrich around) are. Everything about Khalil is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members edgeofnik Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 I do like Hudak, but because they rushed into the Jack/Emily relationship (I still don't know why -- that could've have taken months to develop), we've never gotten to see anything that would make us care about Emily. Honestly, when Patty drugged/tried to snuff her, I wanted her to die. How sad is that? The Patty character was so much meatier (yeah, way over the top), but still it was a lot more fun.

Members DeeeDee Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Exactly. Haiduk was stuck with horrible writing but she (like Muhney) did about as good as they could to sell the material. Unlike others who are too busy mugging (Miller, Hendrickson), comatose (Ford, Bethel, Zima), marginalized (Driscoll, Gellman), MIA (Schmidt, Marano) or all together miscast (Riegel, Rylan). And that's just the newer hires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Believe me, I wanted Emily to die, too, but you didn't see me shedding any tears over it. ;-P But seriously, I don't think it ever mattered whether we cared about Emily, for two reasons: 1) TPTB created Emily at the last minute b/c they'd written Patty into a corner too soon, and they needed to do something to keep Haiduk on the show; and 2) they never intended to invest in the Jack/Emily relationship beyond "Jack meets Patty's lookalike psychiatrist/Jack and psychologist fall in love/Patty finds out/Patty switches places w/ psychologist and marries Jack instead." I mean, if they really wanted us to care about Emily, they would've introduced her brother, for instance, long before they actually did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lovely_m Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 If Daniel spanking Abby wasn't enough, today the writers gave us this gem (Billy to Victoria) "You haven't tasted my sausage." That line isn't even true, Victoria has tasted Billy's sausage plenty of times. In fact, it's part of the reason her marriage is over and she lost custody of her kid.
