So Reese joins the ABC Daytime "people offscreen are bad parents" club along with Hillary Taylor, Frisco and Felicia etc

To be fair Frisco&Felica were , are bad parents. Frisco gave his grils up in order to play spygames and Felicia is a FLAKE of the highest degree!

Jack on DOOL is getting bashed by Jennifer and his daughter Abby. :angry:

What the hell was Erica wearing? SL is a gorgeous woman with a body to die for, and they put her in that frock?

I'm going to go against the grain and say I wasn't bored. Feel free to correct me, though. :ph34r:

I don't know if it's just my Carey hate but Marissa is just as bad no matter who plays her and all I want to do is slap, or stab, her and her mother.

Loved that we got some Jack/Erica/Bianca stuff. Been waiting a while for it. :wub: Reminds me of the good old days of the Kane/Montgomery clan and dismissing it is one reason AMC is dying. Can't stand Reese whining though. :wacko:

Hated the white swan dress Erica wore but I loved JErica today :wub: SL/WW played the scenes perfectly. Sad, but wanting to work it out and still loving each other. I hope AMC doesn't disappoint, AGAIN, and actually let us see them deal with the issues. I want them to make it.

Am I the only one tired of hearing Zach's name EVERY DAY? The man has been gone for how long? I'm not saying dismiss him entirely but can't Kendall do anything or say anything else? ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Mrs. Castillo. Why did I have a flashback to Mrs. Santos? Oy veh!

Wanna cheer up?

As for the rest of the show haven't watched, but read the recaps, so let me get this straight. Reese who OOC now is being trashed for the likes of Snatchalie pt. deux aka should have been banana pancake making/killing Marissa, Reese is being trashed for Mianca? Binx is seeking help in keeping custody from a woman who is a rookie in her field? over Jackson who has countless victories in court. Yeh nothing stupid about that one.

LOVED the Bianca stuff today. Bianca: "You listen to me, those girls are not taking one step with you. And just so theres no misunderstanding, il faudra me passer sur le corps." I loved when she told them off in English and then in French, LOL!! Reese is out of her mind if she thinks she can just send a lawyer & a nanny to come whisk the kids away on a plane to Paris to come see her.

I couldn't believe when those lawyers said that Bianca's been keeping the kids from Reese. Bianca said it perfectly, Reese is the one who hasn't bothered to see them in months. Reese sending lawyers to take the kids away is ridiculous & I will be shocked if things fall through for her. For once I liked Marissa today for going to Erica & Jack and telling them whats happening.

Erica & Jack were great today, minus Erica's distracting white snowball cake, boarder line Black Swan tutu of a dress.

Yes I loved Jack/Erica/Bianca as well! The scenes just got even better when those two came to Krystal's and helped get rid of those people Reese sent. Everything Kane/Montgomery related today was a highlight...

Lets hope the mountain bigfoot bore doesn't stall Jerica's progress again...

I'll say this again in closing this one. Reese would never do this to Bianca. Like ever. I'm gonna be fascinated in hearing how many more characters are dragged down for this mistake of a character in Marissa that has brought absolutely nothing worth while in this show, and should have been cut off by now.

Reese was such a bizarre character and she never matched up to any description Bianca gave of her. I wouldn't be surprised to learn she had a baby with Big Foot. She was just strange.

You know, Reece was so ill defined (a big prob with Pratt) that I really do believe she'd do this--I wouldn't be shocked if she decided she did like men and just wanted to shock her parents with Bianca. Clear--i know you HATE the current writing regime, and frankly the last two weeks have been beyond blah, but the way you've saiud David is acting out of character when, frankly (annoyingly) he's not, I don't think Reece is either.

Reese isnt being trasehd for Marissa. Reese was trashed the minute they decided not to cast soimeone to play her and that included the last 8 months of her abandoning her children and refusing to come see them. Thats 8 months were Marissa wasnt even in the picture. This has to do more with the writers poor mismanagment of this marriage and not knowing what to do with Biuanca once they had her in town. They have to do something to make the split feel more final bc again, they havent casted anyone to play Reese

Who are Snatchalie and Mianca? :unsure:

Mianca is Marissa and Bianca, and I thought Snatchalie was a euphemism for presumed lesbian Natalia but now I'm lost.

Agreed, I think Blake became a woman who learned from her mistakes and grew up. I too wanted them to be the core couple after the Tori thing, as a matter of fact, around Wheeler after Simon left I wanted them to move into the Bauer house..( I would have Blake say that this is the closet thing she knew as a home )SORAS the kids, and bring Sam back..Dinah would have a very contentious relationship with her, as she would be jealous of Ross and Sam's relationship, and Blake and Dinah would have that tension (ya, know cause she killed his brother) it would be a core family that had some fissures leading to good drama. But now, Wheeler and company though the Coopers should be the core.

Agree that great minds can think alike :)
In terms of Derek, I see the show doing one of two things based on the most recent episodes that featured him.
1) They do the gradual fade-out of the character until he stops appearing and is occasionally mentioned by Jacob (i.e. still living and existing in town, just not being seen). We saw some evidence with him having a group of co workers he's friends with, plus a female co worker interested in him... so possibly we see him regain his walking and go back to his life with the Fire crew and eventually we stop seeing them on air.
2) His mentioning to Jacob that he hopes to win Ashley back signals that perhaps the dark side we saw glimpses of has been hidden and will rear itself if she appears to be moving on with a new guy.
In terms of Ashley, the show seems committed to keeping her character on the show especially since she was shown in the Thanksgiving episode having a quiet day with Jan and Mona as they discuss Black Friday shopping, food, and other day to day matters... so I think delving into her backstory in terms of who her father is would be a good place for the show to go while keeping her as a good friend to Naomi, Shanice, and a good nurse during medical stories.
Perhaps one of the children of the handsome new doctor could be her love interest down the line.

Re: 1978. I'm glad the unedited version of the episode complete with commercials is available. The one that has been posted several years ago had several segments missing. I like Barbara's long hair here. Dr. Steven Farrell didn't last very long I take it since she is re-connecting with Tom (Tom Tammi) by 1979. The actor playing Steven (Phil Peters) was the real-life husband of Lenore Kasdorf (Rita GL).

Oh, how I wish we'd gotten to see Ross deal with his teenage sons. I loved his relationships with Phillip and Sam, but he really deserved to be seen with his own kids (other than the horror that became Dinah). The boys simply disappeared off canvas after either the Nursery Stalker or the affair with Tori.

What I liked about Bloss is that I liked how they grew to be the stable couple- the closest to an Ed and Mo in their prime. Especially after the Tori story when their extra-marital exploits were in the past. I wanted them to SORAS the three kids, along with Dinah and with Phillip's family as Ross's extended family would really be solid core family material.
With that said, I was rooting against Bloss in 1999 as I really liked the Ross/India pairing-- but that just turned out to be a waste of MKA.

They did actually resolve who shot Austin over a year later (it was Cyrus, as part of his hasty exit story). That was a last minute save though clearly when they forgot lol.

Talkin' 'Bout TV Movies

I love those old TV movies, especially the ones from the 70's and 80's. The ABC movie of the week had a ton of them. Like
Satan's School for Girls (1973)
All My Darling Daughter's (1972)
Gidget Gets Married (1972)
The Girl Who Came Gift Wrapped (1974)
The Two Worlds of Jenny Logan (1979)
The Boy in the Plastic Bubble (1976)
Death Cruise (1974)
Here is the 70's ABC opening. The theme music "Nikki" was composed by Burt Bacharach and named for his daughter with Angie Dickinson.

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

The return of sitcoms' popularity in the mid-'80s was a real thing, but the crash of the wealth-based nighttime soap genre was resonate and self-induced.

There was an effectively grim finality to the mood of the cliffhangers in the Spring of 1985: Bobby's death, the Moldavian massacre, the return of Val's babies... and they felt as if they could have ended right there (and perhaps they should have, although I would have sorely missed S10 of Dallas, S6 of FC, and Season 9 of Dynasty , and the next five years of KNOTS as they singularly maintained quality).

But, wow, these shows just fell apart post-Spring 1985. They stopped being character dramas after a while, and just started trying to "impress" viewers in some superficial way and to "fake it" somehow.

What a painful, unnecessary slide it was. But once these shows seemed to lose their identities, their sense of self, their momentum into the dung heap couldn't be slowed.
