 Amelia Heinle does not get any favours in the writing or directing department. I think she's capable, but they just write the character so poorly. Even LLB put more effort into Christine in her later years on the show.

The attic fight

Whoever decided to air the classics should get a raise with all the people working from home and getting to relive some of these classics. I also loved the music they used in that scene when Nikki leave with Victor alone just before the epic fight. I want them to do the episode where Jill crashes Kay's party too. I think Jess won the Emmy for that episode. Maybe another theme is Emmy winning episodes.

Finally a Victor and Nikki wedding but honestly I would have rather seen their first wedding. This wedding was just meh. Ashley's hair was cringe. Also what always made me cringe about Ashley is how she is always pining for Victor. WHY she ever loved him more than once I can't even comprehend. But yea throughout all the years of Ashley and all the actresses who played her, it didnt matter which actress was playing her at the time.....every time that Ashley was fawning all over Victor always makes my stomach turn. I dont mind Nikki loving him but for some reason him and Ashley always rubs me the wrong way. Also Heather Thom looks awful as a full fledged blonde. Highlights look fine on her but total platinum blonde is terrible on her

 

Does anyone know how many times Victor and Nikki have been married to each other? If I were to take a guess I'm going to say 5 times lol

 

I love Allstate commericals too! I love Dennis's voice. Sexy as hell!

 

 

I think I have the unpopular opinion. I cant stand Heather Thom I think she is a horrible actress I have never liked her and I find her obnoxious lol. I like Amelia. I wouldnt say I love Amelia, but I like her. I think she makes a likable Victoria. I never liked Victoria when HT played her. I didnt even love to hate her, I just hated her lol

JW won Lead Actress in 1997; I think she submitted episodes where Jill was a suspect in Victor's shooting. The Chancellor estate party was September 1998. Jeanne Cooper got a Lead Actress nomination in 1999 for the Chancellor estate battle story.

 

Victor and Nikki had four weddings that I remember: Colonnade Room 1984, Genoa City Memorial Hospital 1998, Colonnade Room 2002, Newman Ranch 2013.

The bad thing about it is that for Heinle’s first year she did try and was given some meaty material but by the time Latham took over we had Victoria’s sudden transition to sanithood for a hot minute. I can understand that Heinle was not entirely suited for what HT Victoria’s role meant but that didn’t also mean turning her into a complete pea brain who pops babies every few years. The other weird thing is Heinle has completely proven she can be icy and cool yet the writing still wants us to believe she’s a beloved heroine. It’s a combination of both, although why Heinle hasn’t been replaced so long ago is a mystery even to Heinle herself LOL.

I see. I was surprised to see Casey. I remember Roberta Leighton was brought on when Nikki was shot by Veronica but didn’t remember that scene. Weird she was asked just for this brief telephone scene.

I liked the Judge Jennings. He was recurring for years. I miss that. When we had some familiar faces in some minor roles : DA Glenn Richards, Judge Jennings, Dr. Reese Walker, Dr. Nora Thompson...

That's what I've been saying for years. AH can do icy and did her first year...like when she called out Brad and Sharon once she saw them. She was also good at it during Sussman's last run and the start of Mal Young.

 

Also...from Friday...mmmmmm...HT Victoria...

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
