yea that's true, but wasn't hope POed cuz Brooke didn't tell her? With Miranda's personality I think she will too, especially since Bianca lied to her. It's kinda unrealistic how no one has told her the truth yet though.

LOL I thought it was more Passions where Valerie [!@#$%^&*] her own dad and gives birth to her brother/child and Julian's child/brother.

Id have to pull up the scenes but I thought when Hope was SORASed, she already knew. She wasnt pissed at Brooke. She got super upset when she overheard Brooke talk to Ridge about it and mentioned that it was the biggest mistake of her life or something to that effect, which caused Hope to run out and almost get raped. I think she was fine with Brooke when she found her

Passions is its own level of nastiness that I wont even touch.

Oh you're prob right, atm I wasn't really focused on AMC I was more interested in the ABC soaps.

THIS IS THE STORYLINE THAT SHOULD BE PLAYING OUT ON SCREEN! Pete should have been a little more ambigous from the offset, going from a geek in high school to this level of studly should have given him either one hell of an ego, or severe trust issues and a really hard exterior because he has insecurities about people only wanting to be with him for his looks instead of his personality, so in turn he womanizes and hurts others before they have the chance to hurt him. This could have been a great start for the Pete Cortlandt character in this incarnation of AMC.

Given Pete and Colby's past, a Cruel Intentions style storyline involving Celia as the pawn would have been really interesting, setting Colby up to be a young villainess and when we factor in Celia's current apparent mental instability and overbearing guardian there could have been some great repercussions for the three, as well as for Opal, Adam etc. Let's hope they go this route eventually....

Oh this sounds SO VERY VERY GOOD. Now I will mourn what could have been as I watch Pete/Celia probably every day this week

OMG LMAO Jesse/Zach just found some girl in the trash!

Back to the topic a few pages ago, I wouldn't have a problem with Cady as this JR's mother and AJ's grandmother IF she at least played Dix with more maturity. Instead we have her mooning over Tad's picture like he'd died and squealing like a giggly schoolgirl when he called, not to mention ignoring JR's culpability for "that night." I haven't found anything to like about her, so far!

Since they are bringing Colby on and she and Pete have a history and Celia is hanging around the Chandlers, the show should have gone the Dangerous Liaisons route where Colby challenges Pete to seduce young, innocent Celia, he winds up falling for her, she learns the truth, Colby realizes she loves Pete and chaos ensues.

That should have been the story with Hunter, Miranda and Sally.

*claps*

Correction: if Hunter had been portrayed by someone with genuine talent, I would have gone the "Dangerous Liaisons" route with him, Sally and Miranda. He and Sally bet as to whether he can seduce young Miranda; in the process of doing so, he develops actual feelings for the girl; AJ discovers their plot and attempts to intervene; Miranda slaps him and tells him their sibling-like friendship is finished; she is humiliated when her "first time" with gorgeous Hunter becomes social network fodder; Hunter attempts an explanation, but Miranda won't hear it; AJ and Miranda make amends; Hunter vows to win her back; and Sally becomes the Erica of her generation.

Just tie Sally to Brooke's family (make her Laura's child, or something)...and we get their mother's mothers fighting.

This sounds lovely but we need a new Sally before we go making her the next Erica.

Really? Sally? Really?

Really? Sally? Really?

Oh, God, not the '80's Taylor Dayne throwback Sally. Give me SOME effing credit, Vee. I would have created an entirely different, less ridiculous characterization for the girl.

Of course!

Folks, I'm talking hypotheticals. My version of the AJ/Miranda/Hunter/Sally story is no more likely to happen (especially now) than replacing Pete with AJ in the story w/ Celia and having Celia be actual student at Bramwell Hall and not whatever rewrite the writers have settled on in order to explain away Jordan Lane Price's age.

I also wouldn't have called the school "Bramwell Hall," and I probably would have made it co-ed, and have all the teens attending there instead of PVHS.

Celia isn't a tutor at Bramwell because JLP is too old to play a high schooler, she's a tutor so Pete doesn't look like a f.ucking weirdo. Now they get the best of both worlds, her running around in a school uniform and it's legal! Cookies for everyone.

I'm sorry, I just - I just don't understand why I'm supposed to want to watch "Sally" instead of Miranda Montgomery.

Why "instead of"? Why couldn't you watch both? It's no different from Tara/Erica, Jenny/Liza, etc.

But as for why Miranda couldn't be the Erica: she can't be, because they don't need the same thing from their relationships. Erica is Erica, after all, because she has always felt unloved by her father. She has always wanted to be "special"; she even said so. Miranda, as I've said in the past, just wants to be "normal" after dealing both with Bianca and with Erica.
