Members Faulkner Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 MAB was the pits, but her peaks were far better than most of what we’ve seen since. Her show at least had energy. But her far more frequent lows were truly abominable, desperate, and unwatchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) She was such an egomaniac and enabled such unbridled homophobia and misogyny onscreen I don't think I could remember a positive thing about her tenure at this point.

Members DRW50 Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 I think someone said her wedding to Murphy. I don't remember though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 The best part of the episode was seeing Kay's dining room. Tomorrow is Katherine's wedding to Murphy. *snore* They had so many other great choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Forever8 Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 These episodes hardly featured Katherine … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 Agreed. I’d much rather close out the week with the 1998 attic fight and Rex & Katherine singing “I’m Gonna Live til I Die” that anything from MAB & Co.’s reign of terror. The general victory lap she allowed herself to do when her own very limited abilities did not warrant anywhere near such a level of ego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 I'll watch episodes up to 2005. 2006 onward are not classics. Between LML, Josh Griffith, MAB, Paul Rauch, JFP, Chuck Pratt, Mal Young, Sally Sussman, Anthony Morina, I would say MAB is the lesser of nine evils despite her love for former sitcom actors and ABC leftovers.

Members BetterForgotten Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 MAB had the longest run of any of those hacks. So her tenure was a lot more painful for me to sit through and the most satisfying when her ass was rightfully fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 That cake fight was tacky as hell, right? And completely unneeded? Like, the drama between Katherine and Jill was strong enough but then it was reduced to a joke. Which I know is indicative of so much more...

Members Taoboi Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 I remember liking MAB...until the whole town at the garbage dump thing + two doppelgangers running around at the same time. Even if I liked one of the doppelganger better than the other. At least she attempted to get Billy and Mac back together. But ugh at seeing later years Phyllis today versus yesterday's much better Phyllis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 Pre-Nick vs. Post-Nick Phyllis basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Michele Soap Writer Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 I dont know how you guys remember specific head writers and who was the writer when and what their material was. I pay no attention to who the writers are even if I did I wouldnt remember them much a few years later and what they wrote and if it was good or not, lol.

Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted April 30, 2020 Members Share Posted April 30, 2020 I have to say after watching this episode, I really don't miss the LML/MAB era, but production values were still very Y&R-ish. Watching this reminded me of the mess they made of the Sharon character around this time. Additionally, Miller's acting as Billy vs Jason/Drew on GH is night and day.
