~ All My Children Fans ~ What's new in Pine Valley? *Rebecca returning as Greenlee* Part 2

[IASW Rider]

I also think that Greenlee should get a second opinion. Maybe by the next episode, it will be implied that she did (off camera) - maybe saw the doctor with whom Greg had apparently consulted. It is so hard to watch her being so miserable, while selfish Ryan is sitting in some coffee shop in Nova Scotia, ogling his sister. He is such a jerk. DH and I laughed out loud when he shaved his hair, the other day and said "GOODBYE, RYAN" - like "ooooh - we don't recognize him at all, now, with that short hair! Great 'disguise', there, Ryan!" Anyway, every time Ryan told himself "leave her alone, she looks happy", yesterday, we yelled at the TV - "YEAH, LEAVE HER ALONE AND GET OUT OF THERE, BEFORE YOU AFFLICT HER WITH 'THE LAVERY CURSE' " (......as opposed to the traditional "Cambias Curse", of course!)!

What was the purpose of JR taunting and torturing Babe like that, throughout yesterday's episode? To drive her to cheat on Jamie? So stupid......... how can one person be so cruel, just for the sake of being cruel. And I don't remember Phoebe's will saying that Jamie had to leave Babe - it just said that if the 2 of them aren't together, then he gets all of her estate, I think.......

In the mean time, I know that we've discussed "why can't Brooke or Tad pay for Jamie's med school / college, etc." in the past. OK - so JR somehow holds the strings, in that regard. BUT, what I want to know is why do Jamie and Babe have to live in squalor, in the mean time? Even though JR is preventing Jamie from attending school, he's not preventing Tad from loaning Jamie some money on which to live. (I know that JR went around to all of the reputable apartment buildings and ensured that they would not let Jamie and Babe live in them, but I can't believe that Myrtle would turn them away!) I believe that Brooke told Jamie, at some point, that if he wanted to remain with / live with Babe, he was on his own (ie: she wouldn't help support him, financially). But Tad never said that, and I can't imagine that he's thrilled about Jamie's living under those conditions and apparently sometimes having to eat junk food for dinner, etc.!

Maybe Zach's new "business" will be helping people hide and giving them new identities! Maybe he should join Tad and Aidan's firm - he's probably more skilled at things like that than they are!

I liked the exchange between Kendall and Julia, yesterday - especially when Kendall make the crack about Anton - it was nice for us long-time viewers to be reminded of their rivalry of the early - mid 90's!

 

[s&k'smom]

OK sit back relax I'm gonna whine. Just saw the end of today's episode and what's with Kendall being so desperate to save Greenlee and "fix" her life. I mean I wanted to smack her. and please if there is a God in heaven tell JR to get off the vengeful track. AHHHHHHHHHH. Thank you you may resume regularly scheduled programming.

***YAWN***
Anyone else getting tired of watching AMC lately??
Don't you love how jamie and babe live in poverty and yet babe always has a different coat to go with every outfit, new clothes on every day and matching purses and shoes??? okkkay soo if she did get these from her JR days, why would she still wear them? she always says "i don't want anything from JR"

Anyone want to see JR and Kendall together for real?? i'm getting so tired of Kendall and her 'bad relationships'

Anton was verrry good looking!!

oooo i like how Krystal went from looking skanky to having a whole new wardrobe..where did she get the money to do this?

i honestly hope babes stupid plan to get rid of jamie works, i want new storylines for these two..

 

[SC Minnie]

We were talking about the same exact things today!!!!

How come all of the sudden Greenlee is a saint??? It wasn't long ago that she was just a spoiled brat.

 

[mrsdon]

And are we going to believe that Erin didnt recognize Ryan??
But I cant wait to see Johnathon..

 

[sgtdisney]

The show is really starting to smell bad lately. Most of the story is truly implausible. I laughed too when Ryan shaved his head. He looks like a little boy with a five o'clock shadow. There he sits in the restaurant while his 'beloved' wife is going through absolute hell. Nice guy. How are we supposed to believe that Erin wouldn't recognize Ryan right away. I mean did he leave the Lavery mansion when she was like 4? No one had a picture to show her. Come on. This whole JR story is absolutely stupid too. I don't know if it is how the actor is playing it or not. However when Adam is being mean it is still interesting to watch and you hate to like Adam. JR is just deplorable as a character with no redeaming qualities. Even Adam had a soft spot for his brother, and while JR and Jamie aren't blood relations, they were raised as brothers. Pretty sad. Then they keep dragging Pheobe's name up and making it look like she is helping JR (from the grave) be so nasty. Sad. I only hope that they don't turn HOOOOLIA into a raving simp like that have done to most of the characters lately. How come they haven't mentioned Grace Keifer? She went with them into the witness protection program. Maybe she is at the witness protection program's annual medical convention? Blech!

I often check in for the spoilers, but rarely post since I would just be agreeing with what someone already said.

But I just laughed out loud at Julia in the airport today with her hoodie and giant sunglasses. Right. Doesn't look suspicious in the least! Where the heck was airport security? She looked like the unabomber!

Ok, back to lurker status

YES, we SHOULD! Lets find out WHERE the writers are staying and camp out!

 

[PamOKW]

I was wondering why Erin doesn't recognize Ryan, too. Is it because of his "disguise". ;-)

 

[JKanownik]

Alexa Havins is such a pretty girl, so why have they been making her hair look so greasy and ratty? I know Babe and Jamie live in a hole and don't have much money, but it doesn't cost much to take a shower. They really need to do something with it.

 

[s&k'smom]

I'm with you Pooh!

I have to agree with you JK, I think they are trying to make her look trampier.

Yep, DI is going to be a family member. I think Dixie's sister. The "REAL" Dixie (Cady McClain) is suppose to be returning to AMC this fall. I guess we will have to stay tuned. I personally can't wait for Cady to return. We need some spice on this show. I've been barely watching it. BORING!!!!

Johnny Boy makes his long awaited re-appearance the week of August 22nd. Also by Kendall seeing Zach so committed to helping Julia sets Kendall’s teeth on edge. It’s because Kendall digs Zach , but she’d never admit this to him much less herself. Kendall pretends to be blasé about the whole Julia caper.

 

[ColoradoBuffaloMom]

I was proud of Josh today when he stood up to Erica. Not many folks do that. I think she respects him for that since she really didn't challenge him other than giving him her two cents about Babe.

I hope he doesn't fall for Babe's schemes since it would be so cheap of him. He deserves someone who really cares for him not someone who uses him.

[s&k'smom]

Well I did yell at the tv when I realized they are gonna go ahead with this surrogate storyline. Oh Lord whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Like we don't know it's our man Jonathan in the closet. I mean really didn't he just get out of a cave.
