Members DemetriKane Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) @allmc2008 Those train scenes still stand the test of time. I love Angie and Jesse, so glad they were allowed to come back and salute their stand as a iconic daytime treasure. Back in 2008, i didn't even realize that reunion scene was borrowed from Cliff and nina storybook. It doesn't make any sense to me how nobody thought of repeating the Phoebe/Charles/Mona with ERica/Jack/Brooke. There was this great scene at the hospital right before brookes disappearance. Brooke had on this mature sexy leather get up flirting Jack in front of Erica I need to find those scenes. Sometimes I think the show missed out on never pairing Erica and Tad. Have these two episodes from the 80s been posted? First one has Estelle.... Second one was a much better episode to me has Kelly... In both episodes characters keep talking about some party Brooke gave, I wanna see those episodes.

Members Khan Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 Ah, but they did pair Tad and Erica. Remember that Fan February episode (or whatever the hell Frons' people called it)? Viewers got a glimpse of Tad and Erica's make believe nuptials. (Spoiler alert: the dream died.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 Khan, the way I treated him is the way you and @Vee treated me when I first came here. And you two both know I am in the right with that persons remarks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 And you think that makes it okay to talk to that poster like that? How old are you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 You have talked to me the same way for damn near a decade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Franko Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 The infamous "Fan February" episode with Erica and Tad's wedding. "And today we're not going to worry about plots making sense or staying in and out of character ..." Alas, this kind of attitude has prevailed over at DOOL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DemetriKane Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 @Khan @Franko. Yes i remember that dream episode. It was cute!!!! I'M actually talking about pairing them realistically, she's the show biggest female star and he was the shows biggest male star how that didn't happen even before Dixie and/Or Brooke? It came to my mind when i saw a old clip of Tad and Jenny with Erica in NYC. I believe that was untapped drama there, how many martins have Erica been with? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchBug82 Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 Is there a behind-the-scenes story for why they never went there with Tad and Erica? Is it that it never happened organically for all these years and then the fact it had never happened became enough of a thing in itself that they decided they would never go there? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Not that there's anything wrong with it, but, Erica would have been a generation older than Tad given that she was already engaged once while he was being kidnapped by Ray. So, it got me thinking from Charlie Brent to Ryan Lavery, which of Erica's love affair would have had the largest age difference? (btw grateful for the blocking feature) Edited February 10, 2022 by j swift 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 I would say Charlie. Didn't he just drop out of medical school when he and Erica hooked up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 Erica and Tad just lead so much story as individuals, it wouldn't make much sense to couple them. You'd be hurting the amount of story you can tell by putting your two big stars together. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 Agree. Plus, it would've been like when they paired Erica with Ryan. Many accused that pair of lacking "heat," and I think that's because their pairing itself was inorganic. It was like Erica and Ryan were together because someone (Chuck Pratt?) thought it'd be cute, and not because both had reached a point in their lives where hooking up would be natural or inevitable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 I still don't get how Ryan and Erica got together or how long it lasted. I thought it was a potentially viable idea, but not with Chuck Pratt who was largely terrible for the show. (Of course I also could've potentially gotten down with Bianca fùcking Ryan to get revenge on Reese and Zach, which it was rumored that Pratt had floated and may have helped drive Eden off the show, so my taste is subjective!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 Ryan is an interesting conundrum. I liked that he started as sort of a intimacy addict. He slept around with many female characters, and I appreciate when a soap is willing to have a promiscuous male character who is not menacing to the women in town. Then, he found love with Gillian and he became more of a traditional romantic hero. While I enjoy soap characters who evolve over time, (like Brooke who went from a selfish party girl to a impassioned truth teller), I kind of wish Ryan had reverted to form after Gillian. Rather than seeking another romantic relationship, I think it would have worked if he and Erica were always into each other just for the fun of it, and then driven apart because the realities of their families made it too difficult to remain just f#^&-buddies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Joseph Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 oh great, imagine that ruin a popular character just to get rid of the actress lol how many times it must have happened anyway? i'm glad they didn't do it in the end her recast was good too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
