[JaneAusten]

I think AMC must have hired the hair stylist from Y&R because that show has some of the worst hair I have ever seen

[marceline]

I think they ran out of budget for hair and now everyone is borrowing Debbi and Darnell hair product. You can't put that stuff on white hair.

Seriously though, if JY was working two jobs at this time he probably just wants them to slick it back. He has two sets of hairstylists working on it. That's a lot of abuse.

JY has JJLucky hair LOL

[Marley]

Cheap21 really needs to do a JR Chandler hair post!

This is because AMC is now part of the re-branded CTV TWO instead of A Channel or whatever--and for some reason CTV always airs soaps this way--with a break right after the credits. I know it's a minor thing but I *hate* it too (I've noticed to make up for it they now have the last 'act" segue right into the end credits bah--isn't it more work ofr them to edit it like this?)

[EricMontreal22]

Because he comitted suicide? Agnes doesn't believe in that purgatory nonsense David's father was always portrayed as a kind, introverted guy (or talked about anyway) he was practically destroyed by Vanessa.

Exactly--pacing and focus aside, I actually think it's been well done and given us some great moments--it's just too bad about that pacing. (not that I wanted it dragged out as long as some baby switch stories, but a bit more would be nice...)

[EricMontreal22]

Ha, I liked it too...

Awww, I ate all those corny little asides to Agnes' real role with AMC right up. Loved them!

[marceline]

Oh no. I don't buy into that "suicide is a sin" bull. I'll have to go back and check out clips of people talking about David's father. For some reason I remember him as kind of a jerk but I might be thinking of Vanessa's description of him.

[EricMontreal22]

Yeah, I didn't think you did, was just confused. To be honest, I don't remember everything clearly, but I always had the vague impression he was seen as a rather meek but good natured man who was destroyed by Vanessa's controlling and mocking of him.

[Khan]

You mean, Vanessa found time between drug runs as "Proteus" to manipulate and demean her husband?
