AMC: Hubbard story

I hope that's the way it plays out. If this was on Frons's ABC it would be all Zach.

Zach is talking more in the scenes posted - informing Jesse of what he's found out - but the dramatic breaks are all Jesse and it is Jesse's family member. It would be difficult to not continue to give Jesse the Liam role unless they have Miranda or Gabrielle brought into the prostitution ring as well.

no actually it'd be all Ryan, Ryan was the pet, not Zach(at least not of Frons')

Going from the last few years thank to B&E and in a larger sense Pratt, it would kind of be Zach. Frons, Pratt, people with power. The past is the past though and this is not ABC ;)

What makes you think it would be any different, online doesn't mean they'd do anything different

Frons had pets, and Zach was one. Kendall was another.

Why do I feel like the character in question could be Natalia? Shannon Kane never outright said she wasn't doing it, I think she's retweeted things about it a few times on Twitter. And she lives in NYC. I could be wrong but you never know.

EDIT: Look what I just found!

Call All My Children up and close a deeeaaaaaal

Good find ... and from last week. I'm surprised she would want to do AMC (if that is what she is saying) considering she was having some film success while on the soap.

If the filming schedule allows for flexible schedules for other projects, I think most of them would be open to it at least, especially if they're based on the East Coast.

Angela, does it sounds like the character in question could be Natalia? Is anything said about her personality or relationship to Jesse?

For me, the "deal breaker" on that spoiled story will be about how the woman in question is written. If she's smart and strong and fighting back, it could be interesting. If they make her a typical soap damsel, it will be...unfortunate.

ETA: Dear Lawd, don't even tease me with the thought of seeing my beloved Shannon Kane/Natalia again. And in a real story? *faints*

I would be excited if it would come to pass re: Shannon Kane especially if they actually wrote for her.

My three soap goddesses of the last few years are Amanda Setton, Shannon Kane and Shenaz Treasury. And now I might see two of the three of them again? You may faint but I definitely will. Honorary mention to Melissa Claire Egan. Goddamn, was she fantastic. She just wasn't really 'on' the show by the end so I didn't include her.

At one point...

Zach tells Jesse "don't worry. We'll bring [bLANK] home." That for me is the indication it's somebody close to Jesse and the dramatic pauses appearing to be off Jesse.

The woman is frightened but defiant. The kidnappers refer to how hot, pretty and special she is several times. She says maybe two sentences throughout these several pages.

If she's smart and strong and fighting back, it could be interesting.

But, really, all soap heroines (and anti-heroines) are written like this ... until they just aren't.

I'm not familiar with Setton's or Treasury's work although I do remember seeing the excitement around both actresses and their characters. But you and I are likethis when it comes to SK and Missy Claire.

True but this is the chance to break that bad habit. These reboots are the opportunity to learn from mistakes. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

What I enjoyed most about AMC until McTavish's last exit is the show was always so filled with all different level of bitches. I don't mean bitches with a bad connotation. I loved it. Soaps by nature were built more for a female audience and I loved that the females on this show were mostly shown as fierce beasts.

Ew.

Forget the race issue for a minute (which most people love to do even though it's absolutely significant but I won't even get into that right now), if this is true then we're still basing stories on the sexualization of young women. Actual young women, their (alleged) target demo, don't want to see this. Gay men don't want to see this (we (well, I do) like our women strong). Hell, normal straight guys don't want to see this!

It's really maddening. You can write stories without dehumanizing women. If this is what we're getting what is the point off watching? This isn't progressive at all.

I really REALLY hope these sides are just to gauge the actors ability to play various emotions and not their intention with the storylines.

Taken is very popular film so maybe they are doing something along those lines

Precisely what I was thinking re: the AMC spoiler.

I find it weird that PP would choose to do prostitution storylines with their young black female heroines.



I mean why couldn't they do these stories with Natalie/Miranda/Colby, Starr/Dani?

On one hand, that spoiled story sounds like it could excellent material for the Hubbards especially for the actress in question. I'm not seeing any potential in Destiny's ''projected'' story.

It just doesn't sit right with me that they chose Destiny and Cassandra/Natalia. I don't want to see either girl literally turning tricks or being raped
