THREE MORE DAYS LEFT !!!!

Oy my mistake. IA about the other couples.

JaneA, Babe/JR are featured as one of the couples of the 2000s.

And may I saw People went up ABC/Disney/Frons behind for the 2000s picks. I understand Zach/Kendall, and I understand Babe/JR to a point - classic love/hate/attraction.

Bam, Jabe and Zendell were the only popular couples created by the show from the 2000's onward. Even though I greatly disliked the JR character and the nature of their relationship for the better part of their four years together (2003-2007) I can't deny the fact that they were immensely popular and greatly important to one another. They are the flagship pairings for both characters. They are without a doubt the loves of one another's lives and nothing can change that. That is what the show wrote.

Skin, Tad and Dixie were created in the 80s and they got the 90s mention. It should have been w/o question Ryan and Gillian & Leo and Greenlee as the other two couples not Ryan and Greenlee and Jake and Amanda.

Rylee are only a supercouple or majopr couple in Brian Frons head and he obviously got that through to People. I don't even hate Ryan and Greenlee like other but that just discredits the lists a bit.

I agree most definitely that Greelee/Leo and Ryan/Gillian should have been mentioned before Rylee and Jamanda my point was just saying how there has been a lack of popular soap couples on AMC for most of the 2000's. There have only been three who were monumentally popular they probably felt they had to pad the issue a bit more if they were going to have an entire issue devoted to that time period hence the Jamanda mention. I agree that Rylee is an anomaly. Ideally I would have done it like this:

Late 90's: Leo/Greenlee, Gillian/Ryan

2000's: Bam, Jabe, Zendell

Jamanda & Rylee (with the huge pic I might add) made me laugh. Both those couples did so not belong on that list.

I can understand Ryan and Gillian missing the 1990s due to competition, but not Leo and Greenlee for the 2000s. Josh debuted in November of 1999 (only 2 months left of the year) and saying most of Leo and Greenlee took place in the 2000s is putting it mildly.

The list should have been Leo/Greenlee, Zach/Kendall, JR/Babe and yeah I can go with Bianca/Maggie or even Jake/Amanda (although, nah).

He cut her hair.

I know this is soapland, but I'm confused as to what the Myrtle Fargate Foundation is. How did Cambius Industries go from a for-profit company to a non-profit organization?

That did seem odd to me. Can you just do that with a publically held company? I would have just thought to myself Ryan sold the company if they didn't mention the name was going to be the Cambias Foundation initially.

I watched Tuesday's and today's today--and have to say I'm a LITTLE bit surprised at all the negativity. It wasn't half as good as the Hubbards' episode, and I do think it seemed silly to do interviews instead of flashbacks (as mentioned, I think at this point we can handle flashbacks of older actors)--although they didn't bother me too much.

I'm one of the few who thinks this over the top JR thing has been leading up to this moment for ages, and I don't see it as something silly like destroying a legacy character at all--but I did find him getting dedated and then hoping out to the cop shop and home, etc, no problem a bit silly to say the least. The end montage definitely needed more Mona and less recent clips of Slavery, etc. But I actually found the reaction to Erica's book cute (and long overdue), and didn't even mind Zack.

Maybe I'm just getting nostalgic during the final week.

I think one of the things I hate so much about the ending of the series is how they threw away the possibility of giving all of their characters true great endings. They could have really given the fans a great send off by re-pairing old super couples like Ryan and Gillian, Greenlee and Leo and Babe and JR back together and then have them all going off into the sunset and being true their characters while having happy endings and instead we are getting none of that and we have to sit through Minx with fake Bianca and them being fake lesbians together and of course Zendell the worst of them all get to be happy. It's spectacular to see how hard the Kane women have fallen over the years.

I would hate that even more than Project Orpheus--much more. I think it actually is better to end a soap opera with things open--and some things wrapped up. Having all those super couples return fro the dead and immediately go off into the sunet would make me much more mad.

It's wrong what LB is doing to a legacy character like JR. You just don't do that to legacy character's

Why not. Especially when it's largely in character. If certain characters were all untouchable it would be a pretty boring soap--and we all know how boring AMC has been during much of the past while. I agree it has to be done with thought--which is rare nowadays, but...

What a dreadful episode.

Oh one addition--there was NO excuse not to have a brief flashback to Erica's men IMHO.

The fourth wall moments were kinda strange but I liked them. Oddly enough, my fave one was Ryan and Greenlee's - that one made me LOL.

that was the one scene this entire episode i liked.

I was watching some old clips of Erica and SMG's Kendell and it really shows how much the Kane characters have eroded in time. In the early 90's there was a sense that Erica was a very controlled and mature character/person. Now she has digressed into the same teenager she was when she first started the show. It's like any kind of growth the character underwent has been completely thrown out the window over the years. Kendell has also lost her way too. Kendell was originally a character who did bad things because she wanted attention or because was so wrapped up in her own anger that she would self destruct. That was the thing that made her so interesting as a character. That she would inadvertently end up hurting herself because she was so wrapped up in revenge or because she wanted to prove a point in vindicating herself. It was that aspect of the character that made her so watchable. Now she is this stepford wife for Zach who just blindly supports him no matter what. She has lost all of her vitality and vibrancy as a character. She doesn't even remotely resemble herself anymore.

Bianca is just ugh.... CBL is everything wrong in the role.
