And she misspelled the names of her co-stars.  In the first edition, Jeanne Cooper became "Jean".  Then Miss Dickson would get on Amazon and give herself a 5-star review with the comment, "I've always wondered what happened to the beautiful and talented Brenda Dickson.  Loved her stories about Jean Cooper!"  And you could tell it was poor Brenda writing the review, lol.

I decided a while ago to leave poor Brenda Dickson alone, because she clearly needs help.  I don't doubt that there's at least some truths to her claims, but I wouldn't be surprised if what had happened to her BTS damaged her emotionally in the end.

At least I am not toxic and I don't feel the need to attack strangers on a soap opera message board without any real reason.
This is not the first time. You are the only one who is doing this here. Please be careful with the things you say to people you don't know and take out your frustration to the people you blame for your situation. Try to forgive each other and then start posting like a normal person.
Your soap posts are quite interesting, the personal attacks not so much.
Bye.

Guess what, you have my interests all wrong, however I am here to discuss them like everybody else. Nobody hired you to attack  posters because of their "taste problems" and I don't have to "move on" when a random stranger bullies me online or tries to make me feel uncomfortable. You might have scared away several people you didn't care for, for your own reasons. Not happening here.

Accept that you can't address others in a demeaning way just to feel better for yourself and move on. If you can't handle posters saying things you don't agree with, perhaps a message board is not the best place for you right now.

Your interests historically speak for themselves, unless you want to explain the rationale behind your belief that Brenda Dickson in her current mental state and condition should be welcome back on the show in 2022. I think it's unconscionable and unacceptable no matter how many big hats she wears and how fierce she was in 1985. As for what I think of your taste, if you don't like it take it up with a moderator; I'm sure I can handle a formal warning. Won't be my first in the last 15 or however many years.

Trying to act like a bully on a soap opera message board is not cool and it should not be acceptable. If you don't understand that you can't talk to strangers in an aggressive way, 1985 Brenda Dickson is the last thing that should be on your mind. Congratulations for your formal warnings, you must be very proud.

No actual reason to discuss Brenda Dickson or soaps in general with a person who has no idea how to behave on a message board. I am sure you get that a lot. Try understanding that your outbursts are unacceptable and stop attacking people because you don't like what they say. This is not your rage room.

    • It really is ridiculous how happy episodes from 40 years ago make me. God, MKA is so young!
    • Holy sh.it. THAT was a damn soap opera. I’m at a loss for words for how good that was.
    • A private elevator penthouse with a spiral staircase to the primary suite.  Sign me up! The only deficit was that various riff-raffs seemed to have easy access to the elevator.

    • Same here.  Anyone who voluntarily left Margo's penthouse set (except to go overseas or to Heaven) was immediately on my blacklist.  lol.  
    • https://x.com/MicheleValJean/status/1919575319146856657  
    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
    • The storyline April and Draper are involved in during the summer/autumn of 1979 seems fairly "benign" but soon turns very serious.  April has a VERY intrusive, wealthy mother (Margo Huntington Dorn).  Margo knows that April and Draper (who've recently had a miscarriage and are theoretically never going to be able to conceive another baby) want to buy a house.  Margo hoodwinks them into buying a house they can't afford.  The house is listed at $100,000 (about $400,000 in today's dollars).  Margo pays the first $35,000 and leads Draper to believe the asking price of the house is $65,000 instead of $100,000.  If Draper finds out his meddling mother-in-law paid 1/3 of the cost of the home and tricked him, he'll be mad as hell.   Meanwhile, Draper has received a job offer from a prestigious New York law firm.  Margo pulls some strings and has the senior partner in the firm rescind the offer, to keep April in Monticello.  If Draper finds out about THAT, he'll be even angrier with Margo than he will be about the house trickery.  All of that is "bubbling under the surface" in the fall of 1979 but will be the next major story, as everything begins to spiral out of control.   Yep, you've got the Karrs and their very basic middle-class house, the Victorian-themed place where Miles and Nicole live, April and Draper's old craftsman house with the exposed beams, the Madisons & their Mission revival house, and Margo with her 1970s-chic penthouse.  Each of the sets is completely different.  And their budget was like zero, lol.  
    • It felt weird and out of place.  I get it. While I agree with those on here that say he's gotten better, it's still really bad. I'm not seeing the "good" acting some see...but I'll give him a B for being better than when he first started. There's potential. I'll leave it at that. 
    • It's like watching paint dry at a slow-ass pace. It's bad acting. Entirely. Excellent? With Claybon? Never. Ever.
