That's a joke right? It seems even less Millee's style to do a story like that... I believe she popped up in the credits a few times--wasn't she one of the cowriters when Agnes returned in 99? Or was that Elizabeth Page (along with the dreaded Jean Passanante and soon it was just Jean and Agnes and then all Hell broke lose when it was just Jean...)

What was the deal with Agnes in 1999? I've always been confused. Was she officially back? Because last Saturday VI mentioned her penning David/Erica, but I believe he said "helping". She was tagging teaming with MMT, right?

Ok I wasn't sure where to ask this so just decided to ask here. I really liked Krystal (still do) from the start and LOVED the few times when Bobbie Eakes has sang on the show. Does anyone remember this one time when Krystal sang, and her voice was in the background of a montage? I forget where exactly but she was standing on a balcony and started singing, then a montage followed. I have been driving myself crazy for a couple years trying to find a clip of that moment. It had to have happened between 2004-2006 somewhere. Everytime I try to find it on YT, I always end up with the clip of Krystal singing karaoke at the bar on Valentine's day, which was good but not what I'm looking for!! sleep.gif lol

That leads me to ask if anyone remembers other times they liked on AMC where a cast member sang, or a time when the show had a musical guest, etc, that they really enjoyed.

Wow that episode was from 2007, I was off a year. LOL. I remember loving it, especially the "Everybody Wants To Be a Martin" part.

Bobbie has an amazing voice. One of the reasons why I couldn't stop thinking about that song was because of how she kept singing it ALL. THROUGHOUT. THE EPISODE! "Laaa-dedahh-dee (x5).....dream a little dream of me". Eventually I forgot about it but there was always a little part that was stuck in my head, and I wanted to see/hear it again but could never find it until now ;-)

She followed MMT partly cuz I think people thought that it was the worst AMC had ever been (prob rightly, though some of late 90s MMT isn't as bad in hindsight).

She was officially back--she got top credit and there was an interview I have *somewhere* in SOD with her talking about being too old to HW a show anymore (her last time as full HW was on Loving in '94 where she similarly came to try to put it in shape, and I loved that year) but wanting to get AMC back to what fans liked. The show *was* very Schizo though, even early on--you had stuff that was clearly Agnes--the Becka/Scott/Greenlee story for better or worse was like a retread of 70s AMC with Greens a "poor little rich girl" take on Erica (the way I like her). you had Marian trying to get Opal to get her into the social scene. The town felt liek a town again with social classes, and of course as much talked about she did obviously pen the Bianca story. But even by the end of that story, near the end of her credits, you had Libidizone which, as much as people say "Agnes couldn't have penned such and such" and she did, I have no doubt was Passanante--and within a month from there I noticed Agnes was out of the credits. Passanante stayed as HW--during what I still think, despite much awfulness after, was the worst era ever and then among firing rumours she left to ATWT and the show had no credited HW for about 3 months till Culliton came on.

      5-9   Honestly? There's nothing going on. And yet unlike Y&R, I'm not bored. But I just think that's because of the acting going on as they play the beats in this Liam dying storyline. Well, that and the outfits.   If there's anything I'm liking it's the continued drama of Daphne going after Carter and not letting anyone get in her way. Not Brooke. Not Katie. NO ONE.    And while I love TK in those glasses, I am not here for a Brooke/Ridge/Taylee triangle.    And of course, Luna would try to use this Liam mess to get closer to Finn.   Okay week.

      The acting during those Sarah scenes on Friday was horrific.

      So true. Their hypocrisy is on another level. When Anita called Ted a coward because he used Bill as a fixer, I almost choked on my Ritz. And Dani calling Ted worse than Bill as a husband because Bill never pretended to be a good person? Then why stay with him for decades and continue to kiss up to him, Dani? I was glad when Bill told Anita he wouldn't be her punching bag. Not for me. I can think of 100 other actors who would have smoking hot chemistry with LB. Lindstrom does not. I see zero chemistry. None. Joey isn't sexy or scary.   -- Mona was awesome today. -- Why was Eva playing cards in the back room of the casino? -- Can they make Anita any more sanctimonious and self-righteous? -- Dani said Anita had Ted shook. LOL. Really?       No. But I see what you're trying to do. This is a SOAP OPERA. Characters HAVE to make mistakes and sin and screw up and cheat. That's the deal. I understand the concern that we have 2 leading Black men who have cheated on their wives. I do. But I also understand that this is SOAPS 101. Are we going to hear complaints every time a Black character messes up???

      Gone are the days where at least once every week, a character would pull a gun on someone (Ron you really turned gun violence into a joke on this show)

      Oooooo I like these. I like we are on the same page about Little Brownie Man. And I hope to remember this at the end of June to see how much of it came to pass. I definitely feel that the Eva vs Kat story is about to reaaaally get going.    As for the B/C stories, it's funny you mentioned the Joey/Vanessa/Doug story first. Because out of all of those, it is the only one that has enough structure and build to it that it could keep going as a B story that could eventually climax. I think the only POV we don't have in it is Joey's at this point because Month 2 put in the work to give us Doug's and Vanessa's and they are now circling each other and their relationship. And we still need to know Joey's endgame.   Why we gotta pick on Jacob and Naomi? We need that goody good couple. lol. They talked about how they got together. Mind you, very briefly. But we do need to know a little bit more about both. Something I was hoping we were getting by having them in their own stories....him with the crooked cop, her with the lawsuit...but it didn't turn out as hoped. Hopefully, that won't be the case with June though.   Yeah, I want to see more of THAT Ashley.  I finally had to break down and explain to my manager why I keep laughing every time I see the bottle of Febreze at work. The product placement definitely be working.

      That is a specific example where I would agree with those fans so I would be critical of the execs doing so. I frankly think that "caring" in this regard is not conducive to dialog. Basically you point out its very subjective nature. What is caring to one person might be callous disregard to another. I suggest it is a trap & we fell in it!

      Does anyone know of a place where I could watch older episodes of RC??? I really would love to watch more of this show, and I would decide if I would join the save River city campaign, I HATE when soaps are killed, but sometimes you should let them go too
