All My Children Fans Revisted!! (still loving and hating our show)

[IASW Rider]

You're kidding! They re-cast JR AGAIN??!! I have to go and read the thread for which you posted the link, now, Aprille! Boy, that must be the most-often-recast role on that show! Oh - wait - forgive me - JR is just catching up to Jamie in that regard, now - Jamie has already been re-cast 2ce this year - now they are tied!

 

[Pembo]

IASW: I thought the new theme music sounded familiar too!

Is there a purpose for Maggie? Anyone else not like Bianca?

Loved Kendall punching Trey, that was awesome!

At the moment I can't remember what the New now old JR looks like?! I just loved that little blond kid.

Is Mark Consuelos ever coming back? New-Mateo is not growing on me!

 

[IASW Rider]

Wow - Maggie and JR are dating in "real life"? I didn't know that!

 

[dizneenut]

Another JR? Oh great. I kinda liked this one! And he was easy on the eyes!

The music in the new opening sounds like the old one to me, just a different arrangement.

I so do NOT like the Nu-Mateo. He just hasn't grown on me at all.

I don't know what Maggie's purpose is.

 

[Aprille]

Here's a link to a really cool website that has the AMC theme music from 1990. The new arrangement is very similar to it. I think that's why it sounds so familiar.

80's TV Theme Songs

At least this JR recast was the actor's choice. Remember there was a rumor a while back that he was going to leave to do a TV series? He did the pilot which wasn't picked up but he's decided to try his hand in Hollywood.

Rumors are still circulating that Mark Consuelos will be back. Nothing confirmed yet. I think he's still filming his movie.

Saw this while checking out AMCPages. Sorry if its old news!


Report: Tim To Be Recast

An AMC insider tells Soap Opera Central that newcomer Dylan Fergus (Tim Dillon) has been let go. Fergus, who debuted in July, hasn't been seen on-screen in several weeks. His character returned to town to donate a portion of his liver to cousin Enzo Santos -- but subsequent story fizzled. The role will be recast, but a replacement has not been named.

Also of note is the show's decision not to bring back Amanda Dillon, Tim's younger sister, this summer as planned. There is no word on whether or not Amanda will return to Pine Valley in the future.

Hi all!

Aprille! That's it, that's it! That's what I was trying to hum-it takes me back...and thanks for the quote-you know I love it! THe new intro is a remake? I think that's very cool.

What's up with the all the recasting-did we like the old Tim Dillon? I thought the old JR was ok.

Speaking of Kendall, I have to say that I loved when she punched Trey in the face, yesterday. He deserved it for framing her. But at least he admitted it.

I MISSED THAT?! Am i going to have to start liking her now? No more poopy list, rolleyes and barf bags?

 

[Baboo]

Thanks for the link to that music link Aprille. The video clip of the 1990 opening was really neat to watch with the pics of all the old characters.

Speaking of Enzo, where is he these days? I guess he recovered so well that Dad and Mom don't have to be with him at all any more.

I must have blinked and missed Tim. I think I might have seen him twice.

JR and Kendall together gives me the willies.

Of course I can't figure out who I WOULD like to inflict Kendall on.

I wonder if the piece of ceiling that Vanessa picked up yesterday is a clue to what is going to happen to her and Leo. Will they die when the building collapses when she tries to escape?

 

[lilboo]

JR and Kendall together gives me the willies.

Whaaa-were they at it again-eeeeeeeewwwww! EEEW-I don't care what they're saying on the PVB, I'm certain she's too old for him. EEEEEW-Kendall-yuck! (SO happy to freely dislike her again! THank you Baboo. )

 

[Baboo]

Well, I hate to disappoint you lilboo, but they weren't at it again. Just the memory of it grosses me out. He'd be better off with his drug buddies than with she-devil. (j/k)

 

[Baboo]

Well will wonders never cease?! There was Enzo today, large as life and looking very healthy.

Quite an ending to the show today. I wonder how long we'll have to wait to see the rest of that scene. They always make you wait for the good ones.

My favourite quote today was Tad saying that it must be an alternate universe when Liza and Adam were getting along. The look on his face when they were being all syrupy with each other was priceless. And when he found out that they were faking! I thought I'd die.

 

[Poohbear123]

That WAS a good scene with Tad, Adam and Liza wasn't it?? PRICELESS!

 

[dizneenut]

Rescuing from page 3!

 

[scarlett873]

i've officially been sucked back in to the life known as "all my children"!!! i haven't really watched this show in several years, but since maria's been back i have been catching it off and on and i now watch at least half of it every day!! but today i lucked out cuz i got to see the whole thing...

i loved the scenes yesterday with tad, liza, and adam. tad was so hysterical!!

and i loved the scenes today with maria and her mother. i felt so bad for her mom...i was actually crying in the break room while watching it!! and then when edmund pulled her in for that kiss...i had been waiting for that scene!!

and i just know that kendall won't turn trey in...oh well...another day in the life!

 

[Poohbear123]

Good show today, Maria/Maureen was VERY Rude to her Mother, but than again, her Mother expected her to recognize her! Ed-Dumb gave her a good one, didn't he?! Think maybe NOW she will remember???

 

[MaryJ]

The thing I found most interesting was that Maureen/Maria spoke to Isabella in Spanish. She must not have had a total memory wipe out, since no explanation was given that would account for her knowing a second language like "Oh, I took a Spanish class three years ago while working in Nevada."

And WOW...that Kiss!!! I thought my TV screen was going to steam up!

 

[Poohbear123]

Yes, and NO Subtitles??? What were they saying?

 

[MaryJ]

I don't know what they were saying. It's been too many years since my high school Spanish class. But, I do predict that this is the beginning of the memory return and that Maria will have a very Feliz Navidad!! Her memory will probably return at Christmas.

 

[Mary Ellen]

The thing I found most interesting was that Maureen/Maria spoke to Isabella in Spanish. She must not have had a total memory wipe out, since no explanation was given that would account for her knowing a second language like "Oh, I took a Spanish class three years ago while working in Nevada."

I thought of this too, but then I realized that if she didin't need to learn English again, she would also still know Spanish. I 'think' (it's been too many years since collage) this is adifferent part of ones 'memory'.

I did understand what they were saying, but I sure can't tell you what it was. Maybe I've been in a plane crash........ I 'think' it was general 'yadda, yadda.....' nothing important.



I just remembered that todays show was still on my VCR. Was I on any planes today???

Please remember it has been more than a few years since I was in collage (and took Spanish):

Isabella told Maria/Maureen that she would always be with her (this is where Isabella motioned to her chest).

M/M cuts in and says 'in your heart'.

Isabella says 'You understand'

M/M agrees.

 

[Aprille]

I guess I'm the only one hoping Maureen will pull a Kendall and push Edmund away and slap him.
