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

[Pembo]

Ok, this is not going to be a nice comment. Warning given.

If it's true that Michael is going to rape Binks, will the writers turn her straight then? You know what I mean, she realizes she likes men instead? I know a little whacked out but it is soap land.

Thanks for the recap IASW.

I have the VCR set for today. We don't have SoapNet now that we've moved and boy do I miss it!

 

[lilboo]

Oh Pem..that would be an ALL-TIME low even for the AMC writers who have REALLY been known to scrape the bottom of the barrel. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Wow...had no idea things were moving so in Pine Valley...

I actually popped in to wonder if we couldn't get...oh..what was Leo's bro's name again(not David)? I remember someone here really rooting for Greens and the other bro to get together..kinda thinking that might be nice..better than Carlos, anyway...even DAVID actually makes more sense to me than CARLOS....

Have you seen Josh Duhamel in the commercials for his new primetime show? Good gravy, does he know how to grace a tv screen! LEO!!!!

 

[PamOKW]

Have you seen Josh Duhamel

Yes, looking older and better.

 

[ColoradoBuffaloMom]

Lilboo was it Trey you were thinking of for Greenlee?

I'm not sure what David is up to but haven't we already had the "David spikes the drink at a party" story line a few years ago with Libidizone and the Incredible Dreams party?

Good Lord, I hope they don't turn Binks straight if she does get raped.

Looks like the show is finally gonna get interesting!

And, yes, Jeannie, Josh is such a HOTTIE! Can't wait for his new show to start!

 

[Poohbear123]

Haven't been able to see the show the past 2 days, as we are grieving here.....we had to put our 16 year old Dachshund down yesterday, and as seen on my other post, my DH Bill is not doing too well. He REALLY misses his dog. So, hopefully I will get caught up with this thread, as I ran out of VCR tape. Thanks guys, and HI Lil Boo and Pembo.

 

[BermudaJ]

Poohbear123 - So sorry to hear about your dog. I too have had to put my dog down and it is very hard to go through.

What network is Josh's new show on? I want to make sure I pay attention to the new show commercials.

Yes, David did spike punch already, I thought that was a little old too. I'm so tired of David and his revenge.

If it's so gosh darn hot in PV why is everyone wearing long sleeve shirts and pants??? How about shorts and tanks, for goodness sakes there at the park for the 4th of July!!!

Is that really what Michael is going to do? I heard he was going to attack someone but I didn't hear who. I really don't think we need an actual rape story of any kind. I did read in SOD the other day, that their may eventually be hope for the fans who want Maggie and Bianca together.

The show is called "Las Vegas". It is on NBC and is scheduled for Monday nights at 9:00. They show Josh driving a convertible in the commercials. James Caan is also set to to star in the series.

 

[elgerber]

Thanks Pam, I will definitely be keeping my eye out for that commercial!!

 

[Pembo]

Tad was a little overdressed for a carnival wasn't he????

 

[IASW Rider]

I'm so sorry to hear about your dog, Faith. I know how painful it can be to lose a pet. I hope that you and your family are doing all right. Have you thought about getting a puppy, to cheer you all up? We tried to get new kittens, soon after grieving periods of losing cats, and that helped cheer us up!

Yeah, I don't get why all of these people came to the carnival in formal attire - there were very few people wearing shorts, there. The Grey family water fight made me want to throw up! And of course Aidan and Mia would have to witness it.

That was a pretty quick trip to the Cayman Islands for Aidan and Kendall, wasn't it?? How did they know exactly where to find that guy? I liked the confrontation / arrest scene in SOS - maybe Michael's evil looks towards Bianca are the beginning of the horrible rape storyline. That and when he was being taken away and said something like "I'm going to make sure that each and every one of you pays for what you've done to me", or whatever. UGH.

I'm glad that they didn't go through with the "David-spikes-the-punch" storyline, again. I thought that he and Anna handled the scene in the cabin beautifully. Hopefully now he'll start getting back to normal.

And the whole thing with Carlos calling Greenlee "immoral" was beyond ridiculous - SHE'S the "immoral" one, when HE'S the one who slept with a (probably many) married woman???!! I was happy when he stormed out on her - she's better off! But what was that in the coming attractions with him flirting with Maggie??

Anyway, hope that you're all having a nice weekend!

 

[lilboo]

Faith.....I'm so sorry about your dog...hang in there.


ColoradoBuffaloMom...YES! Trey...thank you.

Heee! WHy, Lisa...there's a MAGICAL portal to the Cayman's (and to Hungary) around PV International Airport...

...can someone help me remember Maggie's twin sister's name...Binks' sort-of girlfriend..I swear, my memory
..

I love Lisa's catch-ups...really helps fill in those blanks...Carlos called GREENs IMMORAL?????...lilboo snorts at the irony of it...whatever.

 

[IASW Rider]

Sorry, Jeannie - I forgot about that magical portal which connects the PV Airport to:

A) The Cayman Islands
B) Hungary
C) Poland
D) The Bahamas
E) New York City

How could I have forgotten?

And Maggie's twin's name was Frankie!

How could you forget Trey? My heart is still breaking over their letting him go......... *SIGH*

Hope that you're having a great weekend!

 

[lilboo]

FRANKIE...yes! What is wrong with me...early onset senility???? ANd Trey...well, the boy was TERRIBLY DISTRACTING ...who remembers a name?

Boy that PV Airport is pretty awesome.

 

[IASW Rider]

Then, of course, there are the special hangars at the PV Airport, for the private jets of Adam, Dimitri (I wonder if Ed-dumb has access to those, now?), and maybe even Palmer. And areas where small, two seater planes are housed, like the one that Tanner used to "kidnap" Hayley, years ago. I could swear that PV Airport used to be just a small, local airport.......now it's PV International Airport!

Yes, how could we forget Erica referring to Maggie's sister as "That Frankie Person", every five seconds?! It's definitely not early onset of senility - it's just that AMC brings on and takes off characters (like Gabriel, Shannon, Simone's father, Frankie, Frank, even Alex) so frequently that it's easy to forget that they existed at all!

 

[PamOKW]

I'm wondering if our original thoughts about Carlos actually being wealthy are true. Now, there is the "evil/brooding" Carlos starting to emerge. First, he couldn't speak any English. Then, he was a long-time PV resident that Stuart knew and had helped while in high school. Then we met his working class family and English became his primary language. Now, we have this "air of mystery" with him threatening people in Spanish and cavorting with wealthy women. Intrigue that's leaving me bored. I just can't stand this actor. He just seems awful stiff and unbelievable.

 

[elgerber]

I totally agree Pam, Carlos does nothing for me! He's so-so to look at (until he moves his mouth) but his acting is so bad!!!!

I finally saw an ad for Josh's new show last night! Oh my, lot's of him in the commercial. I'll be giving that show a try!

I'm sure when the planes take off from Pine Valley Intl. Aiport, the fly right over the ocean that connects Pine Valley with other shores as well.

[sgtdisney]

Once you enter the Pine Valley Airport you enter a time portal as well. In the window outside of the 'gate' there sits a parked Swissair MD-11.. Well, Swissair has been out of business for a while.. ( Aviation is another of my interests..)

Carlos has always bored me. I really wish they wouldn't spin these characters around on a dime like they do.

 

[BermudaJ]

Did anyone see Susan Lucci and Eden Riegel on The View today? They were saying to be sure to watch today and tomorrow's episodes. Tomorrow will be the rape. Should be exciting shows to watch.
