I said I liked Nina's top and she's wearing it again, nearly a year later. Well, works for me.

The little boy who plays Bobby has a nice bond with Peter Bergman. I have to admit the Cliff/Nina stuff bores me a little but it's nice to see Myrtle's boarding house.

Is Nina pregnant?

Do you know who is playing Cecily's friend (I know she was in the April 87 episode too)? She looks so familiar.

The flashback of Jeremy taking down Natalie's hair is touching.

I never knew Jack interacted with Natalie or worked for Palmer. It's too bad they later made him so upstanding - he works as a bit of a wheeler-dealer.

So was Erica heavily pregnant when she married Travis? She has her baby in the spring and they're making it sound like she and Travis just got married.

I have the episodes where Erica gives birth marked as early February.

Yes, Nina is pregnant.

Not sure about Cecily's friend as the credits are cut off. I'd have to look and see if I have another episode with her with the credits included. I know the character was named Dagney.

Thanks again for watching and commenting. I always enjoy reading your comments on the episodes.

Jack was very much the bad boy of the family when he first came on. He didn't become good and upstanding and moral until around the time he decided he couldn't and wouldn't lie for Erica on the stand during the custody trial, and that change in personality on intensified when he got involved with Brooke.

I think Erica and Travis got married after Erica was kidnapped by Joanna and then got shot or something. But yes, I believe they were married before Bianca's birth. I think Bianca was born in late February. Erica was NEVER 'heavily pregnant' - even when she was in bed suffering from toxemia right before the birth, her 'baby bump' was ridiculously small compared to the bellies of normal pregnant women. wacko.png

Thanks.

So Erica and Travis weren't married for most of her pregnancy? Or am I messing up timelines?

I wonder if Phoebe or Enid clucked over that.


I hope some of these episodes might have some Erica/Silver scenes. I remember when I first started to read up on the show I wanted to know if Silver and Erica had any interaction on Silver's return stint. I know they were on that island together, thanks to the videos, so now I hope we might see that scene where Erica encourages Silver to fight for Jeremy.

That scene where Silver asked Jeremy if he had any regrets over not being with Erica kind of made me a little sad.

With the anniversary of the Northridge Earthquake just having come a week ago, I was reminded of one of my All My Children memories. Even though we lived 60 miles north of the valley, the power in Santa Barbara was knocked out for hours and I recall my mother and grandmother being disappointed at missing the show, because Grace Keefer had kidnapped a baby and they wanted to see what happened next. "Shoot, we gonna miss what she did with that baby", lol.

Yes, Aunt Grace, the wonderful Lynn Thigpen. I am friends with Lynn's former agent, and she established a memorial program for Lynn and Bobo Lewis. They do acting seminars for folks entering the business. I attended one where the special guest was Judy Blye-Wilson, who cast Lynn on AMC as Grace (Lynn had formerly appeared on AMC as Aunt Cora Baxter in the early '80s). Lynn was in the Godspell movie with Victor Garber, Gimme a Break as Nell Carter's sister, Lean on Me, Where in the World is Carmen San Diego? as the Chief, et cetera, et cetera...

    • Those are great ideas. That could adapt the whole claim that Gus was meant to be Rita's son. A child born of Ed and Rita and influenced by Roger would be great drama. I should probably have Philip's long-lost son be mid-twenties to make sure he's in a different peer group than Lizzie. 
    • Not to mention, there are an equal number of men versus women in each opening: seven women and five men (including the core four Duprees).
    • Well, the head writer obviously knows nothing about writing romance.  He writes couples, but there is nothing romantic about them.  They just pair-up for a year or so, and then move on to somebody else.   He needs to give us a couple of long-term romantic pairings that struggle to get together, and make mistakes despite their deep love for one another -- couples like Victor and Nicki used to be, or like Doug and Julie, Bill and Laura, Alice and Steve, Rachel and Mac, Holden and Lilly, Tara and Phil, etc, etc.   Everything this dude writes is so superficial and lacks any kind of depth.  Even his silly business plots aren't really plots -- they are just musical chairs for who is CEO here, or there, and then over there.  
    • @P.J. No, you are not alone in this. I agree, the writers have overused "I'm a Dupree." I get it, but if they could pace themselves and use the term at more pivotal moments, I believe it would have more impact. Right now, they turn me off. A part of it is that they went the opposite way I felt they should have with the core four, Anita should be our favorite character, and I am sorry she is at the bottom of my list. Why do I care more for Nicole, the daughter who has everything, over Dani, the underdog? Like I said, it's an odd setup that I am getting used to.  I look forward to the in-laws interacting more and bonding away from the Duprees. I already root for Bill and Bradley, I see myself warming up to New Ted soon.

    • A proper recast for Alex, who pulls the strings behind the scenes (and doesnt HATE Amanda like MarjAlex did) would be great..at that point I see her having her fingers in the pie just to make sure it all doesnt go to hell. My rival for Phillip would be my fan fiction of a kid of Ed and Ritas. Somehow Roger got a hold of him, made him think he was Alan's kid ( I would think Rita would push him as someone who could get a piece of the Spaulding) and secretly raised him to HATE Spaulding and work to take them all down...of course the truth comes out that he is Ed's kid, so we have a "bad" Bauer who is Phillip's match, and Rick is stuck in the middle trying to make a relationship with the brother who HATEs his best bud.
    • Does anyone know what happened to her post-RH? She seemed to evaporate after she left the show. Which is why I can believe she said negative things about the show--maybe it got her labeled as "difificult?" I thought she was a very good actress. I liked her performance as Siobhan. She had really good chemistry with Michael Levin. IMO, they were a bit gutless not to go for a Jack/Siobhan romance after Mary was killed off.
    • You might be going crazy and overthinking, because that's not how it goes.  Right now, it's the Hamiltons versus the Richardsons in the openings, with Alex Alegria/Buglioli/Ben Gavin with the Richardsons (Opening B), while Jen Jacob is with the Hamiltons (Opening A). Opening A: Brandon Claybon Timon Kyle Durrett Marquita Goings Jibre Hordges Jen Jacob Mike Manning RhonniRose Mantilla Arielle Prepetit Opening B: Alex Alegria Lauren Buglioli Sean Freeman Ben Gavin Trisha Mann-Grant Ambyr Michelle Colby Muhammad Keith D. Robinson By your reasoning, the opening should be (and would make zero sense): Opening A: Alex Alegria Lauren Buglioli Brandon Claybon Timon Kyle Durrett Sean Freeman Ben Gavin Marquita Goings Jibre Hordges Opening B: Jen Jacob Trisha Mann-Grant Mike Manning RhonniRose Mantilla Ambry Michelle Colby Muhammad Keith D. Robinson Arielle Prepetit
    • Oh yes, I still remember that. But I'm much kinder to David Henesy than you are overall.
    • I just finished the Locher Room Texas reunion.  I really enjoyed it.  I love that the actors have such fond memories of the time they spent working on Texas and with each other.  It is really special and unique.  Kin was being Kin.  He was moving the camera around or he was constantly moving, at one point he is completely in the dark, then you can't hear him.  lol.  He is like a hyper child.   And as I suspected Alan admitted he has not read Tom Lisanti's book.  It is lazy and unprofessional for him to not have done so before speaking with this group.
