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

I actually saw MOST of it, and LOVED the scenes where Lena and Binks were on thier "date" and had to turn down the guys!:eek: :rolleyes: :confused: If only Binks knew..........:o
 
Well, there's another one for the books - yet another character disappears, without a trace. Not to say that we will particularly MISS frog boy.......but the character has been around AMC for so long - they could have given JR a better send off than just having him disappear on a steamer (?!?!) which had already conveniently sailed away before anyone could say "goodbye"! When Stuart came to Adam and Liza and told them that he knew where JR was, I was sure that he was going to say that he was safely in NY with Scott, because months ago (and one JR actor ago), JR eluded to the fact that he wanted to go to NY and move in with Scott. That would have made more sense than this crazy plot! Leave it to the AMC writers......I don't know what the heck is happening to them......the storylines are becoming more and more implausible.

And as you said, Jeannie, I am totally sick of Erica and her self-involved attitude, as well. It's getting so that I don't like her AT ALL! And what's this craziness about her having blamed Jack, all these years, for Bianca's being "taken from her" by Travis......and ultimately is now "blaming" Bianca's sexual orientation on him, too?! Why doesn't she just go and blame Bianca's anorexia on him, while she's at it, because if there was ANY continuity at all, any more, she would recall that Bianca was at the height of her anorexia when she (Erica) was ENGAGED TO JACK in the mid-90's!! And she had no qualms about marrying Jack (supposedly all the while resenting him for assisting Travis in taking Bianca away from her), THEN! These writers are too much, lately! And I don't know whom I'm starting to dislike more, at this point - Erica or Chris. I HATE what they're doing to Chris! How many times have we seen this, before - them turning a character into an "unstable person" just before he or she leaves the show - Laura, Ally, Jason, Taylor.......... I was almost afraid that that's what they were doing with Liza, several months ago! But I'm glad that she's still on the show - now that it looks like they might finally do something with her, other than allow her to spend her scenes skulking around the Chandler mansion!

On a more positive note, I liked the scene where Greenlee finally apologized to Simone, after all these months. But all of a sudden, Simone is totally over Carlos and is now helping Greenlee pick out lingerie with which to seduce him?? But Mia is still whining about Jake, whom she dated and to whom she was engaged for a total of 2 seconds?? Please.

The best scenes on the show, lately, are those which involve Lysistrata, Opal, or Tad! So glad to see that Opal is getting some more air time, lately!

And I agree with you, Sarge and Jeannie - BoydBoydBoyd would never be moving into Myrtle's - where did he live, before? Did he just move there because "Bianca thought it would be fun"?? Well, at least the 2 of them can stay up, at night, and moon over Lena, together......!

And I agree with you, Faith - pretty boring, in general, lately (except seeing what inconsistencies and "easy write offs" the writers choose to torture us with, every day!)!

No one in David's / Anna's / Maggie's family has noticed that Trey is gone, yet.......I wonder when it will occur to them.........?!

Why is Reggie so grateful to Jack, for his kindness, when he was basically nothing but rude to Trey, who took him in, of his own volition, not because he sort of felt "obligated" to do so?? I do like the rapport between Jack and Reggie, though.

Drone chick and Jamie are much better than Drone Chick and JR. Maybe Jamie can eventually get her to crack a smile or show one iota of emotion.

I have a feeling that we may not see AMC again, for several days......

God Bless America!
 
Probably won't be for awhile according to DH!:rolleyes: Just as well, AMC has been VERY boring lately, maybe after things have calmed down, AMC will have let EVERYONE Dissappeared and ALL new People are on the show, and they have re-named it: ALL my LOST Children!:rolleyes: Blaahh!:p
 
So am I to assume that AMC was pre-empted today? I thought it might be. I agree with you on every point IASW. There are so many 'nice' ways to write off these old time characters and still leave a sort of warm feeling in the viewers heart.. Like you said, JR could have moved to be with Scott (nice name btw.. LOL ;) Its what the 'S' stands for in SGT.. anyway I digress) The only bump in that story would have been it would have been so much easier for Adam to go and harass JR, but the writers aren't making the characters do much within character anymore so they could have just dropped it at that. Same thing with Jake, flying off to some remote area of the world, what a stupid way to get ride of him.. Oh well.

I agree with you all on Erica as well. She is even more self absorbed lately than ever and it is really starting to get annoying. I am kind of anxious to see how this Michael/Kendall/Erica thing turns out.. I just hope it's not Kendall that is the long time character they kill off.... Maybe it is Chris who will be killed.. So bad what they are doing to him as well..

One nit I had and this is a couple of days old. Remember when Maggie was in Henry's family restaurant.. The uncle brought her out a plate of food and she took one bite. Cut forward two scenes and the plate is empty and Henry (or the uncle I forget) comments on how Maggie ate all the food. The weird thing is whoever ate all the food literally ATE all th food. The plate was completely clean. I am wondering if Maggie and/or Henry took turns licking that plate clean because aside from wiping it off with a napkin, or licking it there is no way to eat Chinese food like that and leave the plate as white as if it had come from the dishwasher, especially with Chopsticks.. Visions of Maggie suddenly flash in my head licking that plate clean with Henry panting over her and Mama San fuming in the background. That would have actually been funny. Oh well, its a minor detail, but one that I guess only I could have noticed.

I hope they keep Opal on screen more, between she and Lysistrada the show is actually funny at times. She (Opal) has such a way of putting Erica in her place, I really like it.

Hope you all have a nice weekend.
 

off than just having him disappear on a steamer (?!?!)

How bizarre was that? (Where does the ocean come into Pennsylvania anyway??) It sometimes seems like it's quitting time for the writers and they just stick anything into the script.

It's too bad the writers can't use these days when the show will be preempted to stop and actually think through a few plot lines.

ROFL...absolutely pounding my fists on the floor, choking with laughter!!!!!!:p:p Maggie licking the plates....:p that would've been funny!:p

Huh...Frog boy's gone...you blink and everyone diappears!:eek: Well, TATA JR!:wave:
 
I've missed the show for the past few days and then it's been pre-empted.

But Frog-boy off on a ?STEAMER???? What is that all about? Can you still run away to a steamer? All because drone-chik kissed Jaime? That is stupid.

Ed-dumb needs to shave, IMHO!

I hate to see Binks get hurt by this Lena person. I did catch the scene where Lena asks Binks to dinner. eww......

Boyd moving into Myrtles'! BWA-HAHAHAH Where did he live before this? At the Valley Inn with everyone else in PV? Tad's house is empty these days, he should start taking in borders as well.

Time for a change..............WE WANT WRITERS!!!!!!!
 
Good thought, Pembo - Tad should take in boarders, too! I know that Jamie isn't a baby, but......where is he staying, and who is being his parent, these days? Didn't Brooke promise him that she would never leave him, again? Then she goes off on a business trip, 2 weeks ago, and hasn't been back, since? I guess he could be staying at Tad's.......but wasn't it implied that Tad spent the night with Lysistrata and her "hog", a few nights ago??

All this time, we've been calling you "Sarge", Scott, and I guess we know now that "SGT" are your initials?? Sorry about that! :( Do you mind us calling you "Sarge"?? Loved your image of Maggie licking the plate clean and Henry drooling over her! I wondered about that plate of food, too - first Maggie said that she wasn't hungry.......then she ate that mountain of food in a matter of minutes? And isn't Henry supposed to be waiting tables? How does he have time to sit down and chat with Maggie, when someone needs to bring Dr. Joe his "Kung Pao Anything"??!!

Pam - JR apparently flew to San Diego, and caught his steam ship there, not on the coast of the PA ocean! Definitely more realistic......NOT! :)

As boring and silly as the show has been, lately, I have to admit that I've missed it, the past few days!

"All My Lost Children" - love it, Faith! :) As Jeannie said, you blink and everyone disappears!

Hope that you all have a great weekend! :)

No I don't mind being called Sarge, it is kind of an unofficial nickname for me on the 'net.. My Dad wanted me and my brother to have initials that meant something.. My brothers initials spell CAT..

I just found it amusing about the plate of food. I really think it would have been funny to have had one of those 'nasty' scenes with Maggie especially in front of Henry's mama.. LOL!!

Have a good weekend!
 
That's so neat that you and you brother have "meaningful initials", Sarge / Scott! :)

How much do you want to bet that Henry eventually turns into PV's rock and roll star, a la Rick Springfield and Jack Wagner on "General Hospital", years ago??? :)
 
What does the "G" and "T" stand for, should we guess?:confused: I guess "G" would be for Greg or Glenn and "T" for Thomas?:confused: Am I CLOSE?!;) OH, did everyone SEE my NEW TAG?!!:eek: Yes, Wolf is a HOTTIE!!!:eek: ;)
 
Didn't Brooke promise him that she would never leave him, again? Then she goes off on a business trip, 2 weeks ago

Uh oh. Is Brooke gone from AMC never to return, too? ;) ;)

I sure wish they'd at least keep the show running on Soap Net. They're going into backward reruns!

Well you are fairly close.... ;)
 
Does anyone here watch OLTL? I am just wondering if the character Kerri left the show or what?

Christine -- I was just reading a OLTL recap and it looks like the plane crash was a plan by RJ. There really wasn't any crash and Keri and the baby are alive in Canada. RJ just wants Antonio to think they are dead.

How insane is that?? I would expect that from him though.


Hi everyone, how are you all? No show most of last week, saw about 35 mins of it to day - they preempted the beginning. My Soap Net is not work - darn cable company teasing me like that!!!! I will have to call them tomorrow.

Hope all is well for everyone!! :)
 
Hey Everyone!

Well, they just interrupted AMC, again. I caught the tiny piece that was shown on ABC yesterday, and the beginning of today's show (my stupid cable company does not carry SoapNet). Basically, all I saw today was BrattyMaddy whining at Ed-dumb to go riding with Maurona, rather than Mia. Here we go, again. I don't remember her whining to Ed-dumb when he was engaged to Alex or Brooke! Well, I guess that that was because he was engaged to those women before Maurona's return. Regardless, it was pretty annoying.

Speaking of Mia, how did you all like the obligatory "meeting with the Martins", yesterday? I guess that that was the writers' way of "neatly" wrapping up the Jake storyline - finally showing Joe's and Ruth's (good to see her!) reactions, and the fact that they're not blaming Mia for Jake's "abrupt departure". I loved how Ruth asked who the intern was!

And loved Simone's coming on to BoydBoydBoyd, too! Is there anyone in town whom she HASN'T come on to, at this point??

I still think that the whole Greenlee / Carlos thing is weird. Though I did like the scene where she opened up to him about saving Leo's clothes, etc., yesterday. And I like how he revealed that he was the secret admirer. But (I know I keep saying it, but...) I just don't buy them, together!

And now they're making Chris into this "scary", "sinister", "dangerous" guy. I agree with Aidan - I think that Jack is just trying to find ANYTHING wrong with him, so that he can throw him in jail and "eliminate the competition" for Erica. You'd think he'd have more pride than that.........

When will Kendall catch on to Michael's true motives?? She was so suspicious of Ryan that it took her months before she would be friendly to him, much less date him. She trusts Michael implicitly, even though she barely knows anything about him?? She's smarter (or at least more untrusting) than that!

David being overprotective......zzzzzzz...........

Now, did Adam and Liza formally divorce, yesterday? The coverage, here, picked up when they were saying "I love you" and "we tried" and "I won't take Colby away from you" and stuff like that, to one another. I guess they got divorced? And now Liza and Colby Cheese are going to move in with MIA??!! That should be interesting......and weird.......If I'm not mistaken, that apartment once belonged to Liza, when she was in her Tad-obsessed phase and working as the Station Manager at WRCW.....so I guess it's kind of appropriate that she would be moving back in there, since she seems to be obsessed with Tad, again! Anyway, Mia will inevitably be moving out, and into Wildwind soon.........maybe someone will push her out of a high castle window there, too.........Maurona, maybe?

I was wondering, yesterday, if they are going to make Sister Christian and Reggie a couple. At least having her play off someone as funny as Reggie would make Sister Christian a more interesting character! Right now, she's annoying and useless.

I still can't get over how they wrote JR off the show and how lame the writing has been, lately.......oh well, I still enjoy watching! :)

Hope that all is well with all of you! :)
 
Keeping the thread alive, even if the show isn't on too much anymore...:rolleyes: I came home today, to see Chris giving a Engagement ring to Erica!!!:eek: :eek: :confused: :confused: Than, Jackson Walked in!:confused: Whats THAT all about???:confused: Went to commercial and than Rumsfeld came on!:rolleyes:
