All My Children AMC: The Prospect Park Era (old production thread)

[Jonathan]

Well if Marissa was shot and killed, David has another reason to be angry at JR.

As alexisfan explained earlier, Jesse and JR's spots were switched for at least one set of photos. I didn't say they were being paired by romantic couples at all, as well. It was mentioned that placement was likely random, and I said they're at least being paired by family with a few exceptions therefore it wasn't a reach to say some placement is from initial storyline drawings (romantic, enemies, teams, high school grouping).There may be no storyline indication in placement, I'll give you that - but the placement was clearly not completely random (families).

As for Jesse's movement...

It's not too soon, really. A lot of things tend to be pre-determined before they start. The writers have come up with ideas. Those ideas can certainly change and probably will change determined on how things and chemistry play on-screen.

Finally caught up on this thread! So many thoughts... Jane McIntyre DOES strongly resemble Vincent Irizarry. I'd love for David to have more family in Pine Valley, so I'd welcome the addition of a sister. I don't think she has to be a twin - maybe Charles Hayward had a one night stand or something before he killed himself, and the woman got pregnant?

Also, if someone's getting naked on AMC, I'd put money on Heather Roop (Jane). If you do a google image search for her with safe search off, you'll get a screen-cap of her completely nude with some oddly-dressed guy doing her doggie style. It's from some film she did a few years back.

I didn't recognize Jordan Price with the darker hair, but she looks good. I can't wait to learn more about Celia.

The actor playing Peter Cortlandt actually does look a bit like James Mitchell through the eyes, so I can see why he was cast. I hope they haven't completely done away with Petey's geeky side.

Lindsay Hartley looks kind of sickly in that pic with Jordi and Vincent. I wonder if Cara's cancer is back?

[Jonathan]

I think the pic was taken early in the morning and Lindsay hadn't put her face on yet.

That's Christian Slater!

If Marissa is dead, I'm crossing several areas in the hope that it wasn't JR getting his target. They can write that she was chasing after JR in her car and drove off a cliff by accident if they want her dead.

JR's already nearly killed Babe, Kendall, Spike, Jamie and Bianca by accident or on purpose. I'm sure there are more I forgot about.

Maybe she can play Trey with a sex change? Trey was/is David's brother.

[SFK]

Wow, I totally forgot about that too and they were moving way too fast.

She shot Dixie when he kidnapped Krystal and aimed a gun at her

Man I forgot what a loon JR could be written to be

[John]

If they bring Trey back its gotta be, Sam Page

and since he doesnt mind nudity, he would fit right in

[All My Shadows]

I remember that. The person actually wrote that letter to, I believe, disgruntled fans, outlining all of the "amazing" things they'd done to try to appeal to viewers and that it wasn't their fault the shows' ratings were sh!t and they were cancelled. They gave us Shop the Soaps! They did Fun in the Sun weekends! They sold perfume at Wal-Mart! They added Latino characters to attract that telenovela audience! I remember she was quite proud of all that nonsense.

I just watched the 2002 episode where Kendall and Bianca both go to court for Bianca's drinking and driving. The storyline in that ep is bookended by scenes of Chris, Erica, and Bianca at Erica's old house (including the cliffhanger scene of Trey preparing to set Bianca's room on fire), and GOD, if we could get a set that looks half as open and spacious as that house, I'd be one happy camper. We know Erica will be back as soon as SuLu can do it, and Bianca'n'em are gonna need a place to stay, so might as well say that Erica bought a house in the meantime and Bianca's staying there while Erica is out of town.

[Angela]

Dude, I totally forgot about that.

I love Sam Page but he's getting regular acting gigs on TV, why would he come back?

[Cheap21]

I just remember that he also almost killed Amanda when he ran her down while drunk

[Angela]

Okay, so far we have...

Bianca - scared her off a balcony

Kendall, Spike - threw a bunch of construction material on her thinking she was Babe

Babe - drugs

Jamie - lead pipe beating

Amanda - ran her over with a car

Dixie - shot her in the arm while aiming for Krystal

The homicidal streak needs to end.

[All My Shadows]

Didn't we have some clearly dramatic person on this board a few years ago swearing up and down about how virtuous JR was?

[SFK]

NM, I was being dense. But yes!

[AllMyDaysatGH]

Dont forget when JR also attacked Amanda and ripped her dress off at Fusion

He's also beaten David several times
