Members Graham Posted May 5, 2020 Members Share Posted May 5, 2020 I love the reverence David Canary seemed to command from the entire cast. Everyone from Susan Lucci down seemed to really love this man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted May 5, 2020 Members Share Posted May 5, 2020 That whole episode might be available in full on HamiltonBernique's channel. I can look later on and see. I started March 1989 last night, venturing into AMC territory I've never really seen before at all. I had no idea how "religious" Will and Dixie were supposed to be in the beginning, but it's a nuance that I like. It doesn't feel out of place in an era where characters were allowed to have background stories that colored who they were. In later years, it would have been a plot point and nothing else. Julie, damn Julie. She's been a flop for me. Once upon a time, Maurice Benard really had sex appeal and could be a warm romantic lead. Even in that Lucy/Desi biopic he did around the time he left AMC, there was some charisma. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DemetriKane Posted May 8, 2020 Members Share Posted May 8, 2020 Why can’t Amc get those decent size shows similar to ones for guiding light and as the world turn? I need more than Erica by herself and more than tad and Dixie. Just my two cents now that I’m rewatching a lot of the middle to late 80s ( I love Julie Chandler by the way she’s someone that was definitely needed to mix it up in the later years) I’m a little upset with the writers because it seems there was some plan to rip away so much from the character of Brooke throughout her time on the canvas. Why was that? Laura should have never die imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SamandWillowFan Posted May 9, 2020 Members Share Posted May 9, 2020 I was reminded today of how much I loved JR and Annie the wasted potential of that couple. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DemetriKane Posted May 10, 2020 Members Share Posted May 10, 2020 Yes! I loved them together. Annie in general was the sole reason to watch amc from 2008 until her end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted May 10, 2020 Members Share Posted May 10, 2020 What are everyone's general thoughts on Cecily? I'm seeing her a lot for the first time, and I didn't expect to enjoy her as much as I am. She's a nice plucky breath of fresh air in a younger set of teens and twentysomethings that was filled with very "good" and "earnest" characters (not just ragging on ol' Julie this time - also thinking about David, Melanie, and Will). I know that she and Nico end up together, and I'm liking the beginnings of their attraction, which really hasn't been spoken of yet, as Julie prepares to leave for Washington (bye, girl). Her scenes with Myrtle also highlight how perfect and important Myrtle's role on the show was through all these years. I mostly like David and Melanie. They're a classic AMC "young love" couple in the tradition of Phil and Tara, so it fits and it makes sense. And honestly, I'm not gonna lie, Trent Bushey was hot as fck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 10, 2020 Members Share Posted May 10, 2020 Cecily is a lot of fun in the 1988 episodes I watched a few years back. I especially enjoyed the strike (?) material with Hillary, Cecily, and the cute cop who would later run over Laura. She's a spark plug character. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted May 10, 2020 Members Share Posted May 10, 2020 Cecily in her 1st run was fun...her and Nico were fun. When she came back in the 90s...it looked like Cecily..but without the charm of the 1st go around 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DemetriKane Posted May 14, 2020 Members Share Posted May 14, 2020 Let me take a listen. Ha! I see princess Julie got some bothered. Please register in order to view this content I also loved cecily and nico. too. Hilary was a great character too. Amc had a lot of career driven females around the 80s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cct Posted May 15, 2020 Members Share Posted May 15, 2020 What's fascinating is how boring she was prior to that. MCE should have played a vixen all along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DemetriKane Posted May 15, 2020 Members Share Posted May 15, 2020 Well I do agree about her playing a vixen. She wasn’t necessary boring to me the beginning they just didn’t use her correctly imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted May 16, 2020 Members Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) Annie was dull as a good girl/damsel in distress. The whole reveal with Richie and her turning out to be the nutcase was, I almost hate to admit, a very smart move as was Pratt's writing for her in general (again I hate to admit). As for Cecily. I was introduced to her in her second run so NEVER got the appeal. It didn't help that they paired her with Lawford's Charlie, ick (I just hated his character--I wish no disrespect on the actor, RIP) Edited May 18, 2020 by EricMontreal22 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
