Members Broderick Posted November 6, 2021 Members Share Posted November 6, 2021 It's the strangest thing. When someone tells you, "That was a really difficult period for me", 99.9% of the world's population would respond, "What made it so difficult?" or "How did you overcome the difficulties?" or something along those lines. But instead Alan just sits there, smiles like a simpleton, mumbles, "Ok, wow, that's crazy; let me tell you about my nephew!" It's like he's a space alien who's never heard two human beings have a conversation before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 6, 2021 Members Share Posted November 6, 2021 I tried to get past it and focus solely on Eileen but man, it's a challenge when the host is so inept at maintaining conversation threads. He would just stop the conversation cold, he's so stilted. I was grateful that Don could come on, that helped give the conversation more texture, it felt natural. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted November 6, 2021 Members Share Posted November 6, 2021 Eileen looks and sounds fantastic, so wonderful to hear her little voice again. There were so many rumors swirling around about her well-being, it's just good to know for sure that she's still her vibrant and fun self. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted November 6, 2021 Members Share Posted November 6, 2021 What a dork I am that seeing Bob and Lisa again makes me feel like I am three years old having to "take my nap" so my Mom could see what "That damn Lisa is up to today." Eileen looks and sounds great as of course Don does too (plus I love that study or office he is always in..) Don always just seems like somebodies Dad and Eileen a crazy and beloved Aunt...(of which I was luck enough to have a Lisa like aunt.) I loved Eileen's simple ideal for Lisa's last scene...a guy handing her a glass of champagne and they look at each other...I would have added her saying..."Wait until they find out about us!" A real shame that Lisa was not kept in the mix until the very end..they could have used her in a million ways. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted November 6, 2021 Members Share Posted November 6, 2021 Why TPTB sidelined Fulton/Lisa, and kept her in the degrading position of a glorified day-player for so many years is a mystery none of us will ever have the answer to, alas. I've always been perplexed why they didn't just fire her completely, instead of just giving her a scrap or two here and there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TVFAN1144 Posted November 6, 2021 Members Share Posted November 6, 2021 I was hoping she would say why she decided to go back to North Carolina and what she has been doing there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted November 7, 2021 Members Share Posted November 7, 2021 Because that kind of question makes too much sense! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bill Bauer Posted November 7, 2021 Members Share Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) Not much. Locher just retreaded the same old tired stories about her almost pulling out the pregnancy pillow on live TV, getting hit by the irate fan, having her recite her married names, etc. It honestly was just like all the other interviews you've seen with her in the past. Just with an older Eileen and a befuddled interviewer. Not much tea was spilled. Edited November 7, 2021 by Bill Bauer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 7, 2021 Members Share Posted November 7, 2021 The interview was disappointing and expected but it's worth watching just to see Lisa and Bob together on screen again.
