lol. Like nails on a chalkboard. She's just ... she's the person who walks in a room, says something, and just sucks the air right out of it. She's just ... no fun. I don't understand living through life refusing to empathize or understand someone else. I feel like she's gotten 100x worse since meeting her husband and marrying him. 

 

I'd be very curious to see what she's like away from being a talking head. Like, does she surround herself with people who think only like her? Does she dismiss folks in real life who are talking and she doesn't like what they're saying? Does she loosen up with a few drinks? She's very odd. Every once in a while she almost "lets her hair down" so to speak and I almost come around but then man she just amps up her usual behavior. I just can't with her anymore. She really was driving me away from The View.

 

How on earth this person came from John and Cindy McCain, who "get/got it", I have no idea.

Exactly right. It's one thing to have a conservative panelist who is a strong debater...it's another to have a conservative panelist who has supremely thin skin, a temper that can materialize at the drop of a hat and no impulse control. It's one thing to have a conservative panelist who is passionate about the issues of the day...it's another to have a conservative panelist who takes every little thing personally. It would also be nice to have a conservative panelist who wears normal clothes and has normal hair, and doesn't post selfies every minute of the day!!

Exactly.

 

I've said it a billion times but she's a talking head (someone who gives their take on a 'news show' and she carried herself like that, checking out when the subject wasn't about 'her'), not a talk show host. She just didn't bother to try to be one either. THEY tried to make her one. It was never going to work.

 

They should just rotate in legacy hosts for the 25th season. 

 

Yeah, she just wrapped up Home and Family. She seems to be doing fine. Didn't she host some entertainment news show that failed too? She's stayed busy, she doesn't need The View. I think Sara fills that spot Debbie would have filled, because like you said she wouldn't fully fit the Meghan/Elisabeth role. She's more the 'funny young blonde'.

 

I can't see it full time at all. I think they might rotate in 'legacy' hosts.

 

And where is Barbara Walters? Not a peep in 2020 (of all years). I'm guessing she's not well (especially considering, and not making light of it at all, that she was showing a decline before she retired).

I can't wait for the end of the season.  McCain REALLY has a chip on her shoulder now that she's resigned.  I couldn't believe she was making anti-Semitic accusations to Schumer.  She's pulling out all of her hubby's issue now.

      Guiding Light Discussion Thread

      By alwaysAMC · Posted

      Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.

      What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.

      Y&R: Old Articles

      Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.

      There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.

      I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.

      ALL: Drag/Crossdressing Disguises in Soap Operas?

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

      Another World Discussion Thread

      I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980.
