I forgot my bios were still online. These bios sometims glaze over storyline details as they are a "quick guide" and I wrote them from the back of my Psychology thesis course at University.

This did leave out his mid-80's appearence where he kidnaps Adam and holds him for ransom. Matt Cowles real-life wife, Christine Baranski from the Good Wife, would appear as his side-kick Jewel for the storyline.

Haha, I was background player in that. Kathy, that is her legacy and her baby.

Though reading the bios and the content I provided, I really need to do a full edit/ hire an editor. Some of the bios are really dry, and some are riddled with typos. Someday, maybe when I do not work as much as I do.

(Note: the last 2 weeks I have been home with the flu, thus my ability to manically check this site and watch the soaps. It is a rare occasion that I am feeling very blessed to have).

YAY!

I had a strong feeling he'd be back and I bet he's Celia's guardian. It now makes sense why the guardian didn't want her working with hookers at the Miranda Center. He's so her guardian.

Really never would have expected to ever see Billy Clyde, not to mention Dimitri (he's still appearing, right?).

BCT (please, let's make that a thing) just brings something unique and fun to the show, and I hope they really study those early 80s episodes on YouTube to work off of what Pine Valley was in that time. It can be transposed into the present day, I just know it can.

I think that's actually exactly what they're trying to do.

I will freely and quickly admit to not being the most well versed in older AMC history but I do know actors like Cowles and characters like Billy Clyde - and stuff like the gothic romance of Cliff and Nina/Pete and Celia, the strange psychosexual undertones, etc., the damaged beautiful kids are all recurring themes throughout a lot of Agnes's work. I think everything old is new again in a lot of ways.

    • Did I ever say that? I actually don't want to, but I have no problem doing so when I feel it's truly warranted. Case in point. I'll be more respectful about how you're involving yourself in these kind of discussions when you consider doing the same. Believe me when I tell you the way you attempt to dress up this attitude has placated no one, and this is not a minority forum opinion. It is easy enough, for example, to simply say that "I think many of us have underrated JFP's skills as a woman producer in an overly misogynistic industry". It's a lot easier than spending paragraph after paragraph amusedly shaking one's head while talking down to the clueless proles of SON about their blinkered, reductive opinions. And yes, I am saying that many of us have spoken up crediting Phelps for the skills she obviously has as a technical whiz and line producer. There's nothing out of turn about acknowledging that many posters know where she excelled. Or talking about where she clearly (for many of us) didn't. You don't have to agree, but you could try listening to someone other than yourself.
    • It’s a recurring tension in Daytime: the willingness to take risks can fuel a show's longevity, but the actresses themselves often bear the long-term consequences of audience backlash.
    • I pray Eva never lets Dana back into her life, because she deserves better. Dana isn't a mother, nor is she a parent.
    • Daphnee's performance very much reminded me of Anna Holbrook's on Another World when Sharlene was dealing with John and Felicia's affair. Angry but well controlled and believable. A good start for an Emmy reel. If there is one thing an evil Black mother is going to do, it is lock you out the house. Eva shouldn't have even bothered to go home.  Leslie calling Martin "Mr. President" was interesting. How much exactly does she know about the family and has someone higher up sent her to cause trouble? Anita's speech to Leslie was dignified like Geraldine Whitney (EON) or Kim Hughes (ATWT) would have gone off on somebody.
    • Thanks for posting this, fascinating read. It's clear how ambivalent Wyndham is about Justine. IMO, it reads like she agrees that the end of the storyline was bad, but reading between the lines I think she thought she was doing good work for the meat of it....which was not the case. As bad as the writing for most of that story was, it was truly made worse by her embarrassing performance. After the story concluded she kept falling back into Justine ticks, when she wasn't phoning he scenes in. Not to play Freud, but was it to tr*ll her critics?  
    • I better hear "The Emmy goes to Ambyr Michelle" come Emmy time lol
