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

[Pembo]

I watched the show yesterday! I loved the scenes with Kendall and Erica finally getting along! Woo-hoo......

Bratty-Maddie strikes again........calling her Dad w/o telling anyone. I think she should go live with Chris Stamp after that trick. I know it's mean to say bad things about children but in this case, can't we make an exception?

I saw "Leo" during the SoapNet preshow of the Emmy's. He has a pilot that was picked up for fall.......

I hope Lena goes away. Let's find someone age appropriate for Binks.

I agree with you about the Erica and Kendall pairing. I hope that they keep this up. It is so old and tired for Erica to be treating Kendall like something she has to scrape off her shoe. I don't expect them to have the same mother daughter bond as Erica/Bianca, but friends or something. It is time for Erica and Kendall as well as the writers to get past this I hate you because you are a product of rape storyline.

 

[Poohbear123]

Welcome back! How were the crowds? Was it busy? Well, I sure hope Bratty-Maddie knows how to swim, cause the bad guy threw her OVERBOARD!

 

[lilboo]

Hey people...just starting to get back into the show...caught bits today...

The Henry/Maggie scenes seem like filler to me...I just wander off to answer e-mails when they're on.

Kendall and Erica teaming up DOES sound refreshing...Bianca on the other hand needs to get mean ...so tired of her being so wishy-washy and her "oh poor me" attitude...

and heehee! I always feel so mean when thinking evil plot twists for little BrattyMaddie but I see I am in good company!

LeoLeoLeo!!!

The Simone, Tad, "sexy man competition and lack of six-pack abs"...that whole thing was fun...I just loooove Tad scenes!!

I'm NOT fond of pairing up these increasingly older actors with younger and younger actresses, so if there's a Simone/Tad pairing in t he future...eeeh...can't they get any young men for these women? Surely the New York modeling agencies are filled with hungry young would-be actors...no one is QUITE Josh Duhamel but come ON now!

Actually I was thinking, 'How could it ONLY have been a year since DITSIE's death?' I've just forced her OUT of my consciousness...completely banished her from my hard drive...can't believe it's only been a year..a DITSIE -free year...YAY!!!!And many moooooooore!

Maddie may be irritating, but at least her peril is pushing Maureen to remember Maria! I know I may be in the minority, but I for one, want Maria back. After Maureen shot the gun I was thinking, you darn well better be ready to shoot again if you open that door, cuz you know he's not dead LOL. I loved the way he whipped Maddie over his shoulder, that was definitely a different way to carry her. I bet her arm hurt after filming those scenes.


I hate to dissapoint anyone, but I read in SOD that Lena has just been signed to contract, so I guess she won't be going anywhere soon.

Henry, what a spineless little Mama's boy!

Thanks Faith!! The crowds were not bad at all, I was shocked. I never made it to MK though. I think that park is usually more crowded.

LOL I too liked Tad today, he thinks he is such a stud muffin. BUT I too would not want to see him with Simone. He needs someone his own age and she needs someone her own too. I dont like these pairings of couples where would is old enough to be the others parent; ie Adam & Liza.

Hi Everyone!

Glad to hear that you had a nice time at WDW, Christine! We're prepared for the heat, down there - we always go down during the same week, every year, and it's always pretty hot, down there! But we never care, 'cause we're in WDW! Besides, we could use some heat - we've only had a few days in the 70's and 80's, up here, so far - it's mostly been unseasonably cool, in the upper 50's to mid 60's, lately! 12 more days to go!

I was cheering when Flanders threw BrattyMaddie overboard, yesterday - we couldn't take her incessant whining and shrieking any more! I like how he flung her with one arm, like she was an annoying insect that he was trying to get rid of! I know - it's so cruel. But so is her telling Maureen, right in front of Aidan "Daddy looooooooves you". UGH. Of course Ed-dumb will come to save the day (I wish that it was Maureen who would save the day - not Ed-dumb being the big hero), and that will make Maria's memory come back, all together. Mia was right when she told Liza yesterday that she wasn't sure about Ed-dumb's feelings.......I hope that she is ready to be consoled by Aidan, really soon!

Yeah, I thought it was kind of weird that they hinted that Tad and Simone might get together, too. What about Lysistrata??!! I liked them together! We haven't seen her around at all, lately - I miss her! If he's not going to be with Lysistrata, then I definitely think that they should put him back together with Liza, for old time's sake, if nothing else!

I hope that this "Sexiest Man in America" thing won't be too boring. Like I've said before, we get hit with all of this stupid reality TV in prime time - do we really need to have it invade our soaps, too??!!

What the heck is with Regina, and why does she care so much about Henry's future career? I think it's more than her having a life long crush on Henry, like Maggie suspects. Do you remember when Henry's mother called Regina to find out how Henry did on his mid term? I think that there is some sort of other connection between them. Very weird. In the mean time, how does Henry expect Maggie to marry him, when he's threatening to ruin her life and career by allowing her to be expelled for his cheating??

I loved the scene at the press conference! And I loved how Michael yelled over his shoulder at Lena, as the cops were taking him away "you'd better not misstep, or else your mother will be dead!" or whatever - gee, it wasn't too smart of him to say that, right in front of the cops who were taking him away! And then Lena's mother instantly showed up in the press conference room! Only on a soap opera! I'm glad that Bianca got to see that Lena was telling the truth about being blackmailed by Michael, though. I'm not sure how I feel about Bianca and Lena together in the long term, but I think that Lena's character has possibilities (though I don't know what they could possibly do with her now that the Michael storyline seems to be over, and Erica is not likely to keep her at Enchantment). It was nice to see Erica including Kendall in their celebration, etc. Maybe their feud is finally over!

Well, we'll see what the women of Fusion have in store for us, today, in their tiki hut on the balmy waters of the Pennsylvania ocean!

Have a great day!

What about Lysistrata??!!

I think it was the other day when everyone was consoling Tad on Dixie's first anniversary that his mom brought up Lysistrata. He said she was nice but they were just friends, nothing serious. I sure hope that doesn't mean we won't be seeing her in PV anymore. She adds some much needed comic relief.

I wonder if anyone has noticed yet that Agent Stamp has disappeared at the same time they can't find the body of the man who was shot? In Maddie's flashback I also noticed something....she never told anyone how the other man (Stamp) gave up his life to save her. I wonder if that will ever come back to her.

 

[Claudia Kellenberger]

Is there any possibility that Regina and Henry were promised to each other when they were very young ? Maybe Regina's parents and Henry's parents made a deal when the kids were only 5 years old, that they would be married to each other when they become doctors. You never know....

 

[Poohbear123]

Well, Maria REMEMBERS IT ALL!!!! As she is trying to rescue Bratty Maddie, in the Spa-thats what it looks like to me-she remembers her life with ED-Dumb! Acck! Now, to find Maddie.........(maybe they won't find her and they will replace her with another actress)? OK...where is Chris Stamp? Is he on HOLD somewhere?!

 

[pnelson]

I think they've handled this whole Chris Stamp thing terribly. He deserved a better send off. I don't even get what that whole story line is supposed to be about and I watch every day. I mean they alluded to Chris being "bad" but they never said for what, he had secret meetings with Flanders about what???, Flanders shot Jackson for some unknown reason, then Flanders shot Chris-Why? Now Flanders is after Maddie who he should have just shot in the park that day. And who is Flanders exactly?? Did they ever say??

 

[lilboo]

I AMEND what I'd said about the Henry/Maggie situation; I'm not bored anymore...uugggh HUUUGE ...Henry, pleeeaaase... spare me! and Regina..... ..yuuugh...go away! "I know who you really are...does Maggie?" He's a spineless little worm that's who!

My vote's for TAD as SEXIEST MAN!!! A good sense of humor is sexy.

And I can't help but laugh at the image of Boyd's buff arms(wasn't that Boyd at the gym)...when DOES he find time to work out in between making all sorts of patented top-secret anti-aging formulas in the lab?

If not Lysistrata...and I know it's a bit of the ol' merry-go-round... but why not Tad and Liza again?

I'm a little confused about the whole Michael Canbius thing...I'm guessing from the other posts that's been somewhat resolved...

Chris who? Yes, that was a bum deal...where did he go and how and why did he get there...

..oh well...later!

 

[dizneenut]

ROFL!

Maria is in the water remembering everything while her poor little Maddie is drowning!

 

[lilboo]

SHerry you're back!! Me too!

ANd yes ROFLLLLLLLL!!!!! Her bionic boobs kept her afloat while she remembered eeeeeverything...poor Maddie had to fend for herself!

 

[sgtdisney]

Maria's probably thinking to herself.. Note to self, if Maddie and I make it out of this alive, our next step is to get implants for Maddie, because this is Pine Valley and this won't be the last time she gets thrown in the water. Flotation devices always come in handy here.....

...... Sorry that was crass...

I watched this Flanders/Stamp thing the other day and it was really depressing. Here you have this major character on the show, and a seemingly a popular one at that, and his role is reduced to being tossed into the ocean in a bag. How sad and what a nasty way for them to get rid of him. I do have to say that at least they were being realistic with the 'body.' I mean Stamp has been dead for days so he would be stiff by now. And when Flander's lifted up the body it seemed pretty stiff. Gross, I know but hopefully it is after lunch.

Has anyone seem those cellular commercials where the people had letters written across their foreheads? I think it was Sprint. Anyway, I think both Maggie and Bianca should have a girl's day out and get 'DOORMAT' tatooed across their foreheads.

 

[pnelson]

Did I miss SOMETHING?? When did Flanders dump Chris??? I don't remember that. So, who exactly is Flanders anyways? Does anyone even know what his tie in with Chris actually was?

Flanders dumped Stamp (supposedly, *WE* never did see his face) in the ocean before he got the phone call from sweet precocious Maddie where she told this man who didn't sound like her daddy, where she was and what the name of the boat was. Come to think of it, Maddie has a brain surgeon for a mother and Pulitzer prize winner for a father apparently she didn't inherit intelligence genes from either of them.. (I feel horrible bashing Maddie, NOT) Anyway, Flanders tossed a body into the ocean and said something like goodbye Agent Stamp or some such rot like that. Then after Maddie called him, he again spoke to the body (which presumably sank or floated away) and said something like Maddie is right beneath my nose and above yours agent Stamp. This happened on Monday's show I think.

 

[elgerber]

One thing I must say. NO ONE on daytime can cry like Eva La Rue!!!! She can crank out those tears, and makes me sniffle everytime.

[Poohbear123]

lilboo and sgtDisney--you guys have me rolling! So, how LONG do you think it will be before Maria tells Ed-dumb that she KNOWS WHO THE HECK SHE REALLY IS??? Or will that whiney Maddie interrupt EVERY TIME? Daaaddddddyyyyyyyy! Accckkk! If I was Maria, I would have drowned her! Oops, did I say that? Now wasn't Flanders the one Chris Hired to SHOOT Jackson?! Didn't Chris try and STOP the shooting, but found it was too late?! What happened with Erica and Jackson? Are THEY still ON the show??

 

[PamOKW]

I've got a bad feeling that Maria will be keeping her memory secret for a lot longer. She was set to spill the beans until Aidan's boat exploded on the rocks! I figure she'll have to nurse him back to health and won't be able to tell him the truth. I just wonder how close Edmund and Mia will become during that time. I hope Flanders isn't dead or no one will ever know poor Chris Stamp is dead.

SGT -- thanks for the fill-in on the body dumping. I must have blinked. I heard the speech about the boat being on top of him but didn't see him getting rid of the body.
