~ All My Children Fans ~ What's new in Pine Valley? *Rebecca returning as Greenlee* Part 3

[IASW Rider]

I wonder how they WILL explain how Jesse was able to guide Gillian to heaven - AND introduce her to all of PV's former residents there........if he was ALIVE the entire time! And I wonder if they will acknowledge Frankie's recent past in PV - dating Simone, having had the baby with Mia, working at PVH, living at Myrtle's, etc.

In the mean time........ENOUGH WITH EVERYONE BEING SICK AND / OR IN THE HOSPITAL, ALREADY! WE NEED SOME "HAPPY" STORYLINES, ALREADY! (Or at least funny / comical ones to break up all of the depressing hospital scenes!)

Hey- does it drive anyone else crazy that every time Annie sees Richie, she has to call him by name a million times?? "I know what kind of person you are, RICHIE. I'm doing this to help you because I want to, RICHIE. I need you to stay away from Emma, RICHIE".........He used to respond by calling HER by name a million times, too......but now he just calls her "Sis", a million times per interaction. It's so distracting that my DH and I actually keep count every time the 2 of them have a conversation - how many times she calls him "Richie" to how many times he calls her "Annie" or "Sis", per interchange! The odd thing is that when Babe is with him.........SHE calls him by name a million times, too! For some reason, the residents of PV just like to say his name over and over and over again! I can understand if they did that in the beginning - to reiterate to we audience members that he is INDEED "RICHIE" and not "Wes", as we'd originally been led to believe........but it's been MONTHS since we've known who he is.........so is it REALLY NECESSARY for Annie or Babe to call him by name several times, every single time they talk to him??!!

I must say - this is one point that has always annoyed me about AMC.
MANY times, it would only be Jack and Erica in the room. Yet, they constantly say their names over and over again! Who Does That ?!?
Maybe I'm nit picking, but I have always found this annoying.

You know when he first came to the show they called him Wes, so maybe he needs to be reminded who he is

Just piping in with my semi-regular rant about the new Babe. Looks like Mrs. Thistlewhite from Year Without A Santa Claus. And they've been dressing her like a frump almost every episode. Puhleeeezzee - bring back Alexa (even though I know that's not going to happen) or get someone else - I just can't watch this one anymore. JR would NOT pine after this chick in real life - sorry.

But the sleeveless dresses in the middle of Jan in Pennsylvania have got me crazy.

But, call me crazy, I do like the hospital scenes. Except for all the HIPAA violations right and left (talking about patient conditions at the nurses' station where anyone can walk up).

Aren't those dresses crazy. I'm just north of Pennsylvania & the only way I'd wear something like that in January is if I were in a sauna!!!

I'm enjoying the hospital scenes also. Loving Angie!!! BTW - has the hospital been remodeled or they are supposed to be on a different floor that we don't normally see?

And having Angie treat Frankie, that is just not done either. And today, they had Greenlee looking right into his room while they were trying to revive him.

I always noticed kendall doing this with Ryan and now Zack. At first i thought she was flubbing her lines and just filling in for second by using the name but it's constantly and now it is other actors as well, very annoying.

 

[Mrs.Toad]

Well, I'm glad some of you are enjoying all the hospital scenes, because I was bored stiff watching the show yesterday.

They wouldn't bring "the real Greenlee" back just to kill her off a week later, so we know she's going to be just fine. Same with Frankie, although to a lesser extent. I just can't muster up any sympathy or interest in the situation they're in, and I think they've been dragging it out wwwaaaaaaaayyy too long.

 

[PrincessSuzanne]

You know I said the same thing to my mom on Tuesday.

I cried today when Jack brought Lily in to see Greenlee, that was so touching

 

[SC Minnie]

I like the new hospital setting. Much more modern than the old set. I can't help but laugh when they are doing the medical dialog. You know those actors have no idea what they are talking about using those $4 words.

The scene today with Angie in Frankie's room and Jesse listening was very touching, as was the scene with Lily and Greenlee. Thought it was rather humerous when Ryan woke up at the end of the show today.

 

[minniecarousel]

I figure they needed a new hospital set because they always show everyone in the ER - there ARE other places besides the ER in hospitals! It always looked like the same cubicles, even for long-term admitted patients. I like the new set, but yeah - they'd never get away with the lack of privacy in RL!

 

[MELSMICE]

OMG - I burst out laughing when I saw the look on his face & then he looked at Annie & Emma & said, "Umm, who are you?"

 

[grinningghost]

In agreement on sleeveless dresses. I just drove through the part of PA that Pine Valley is supposed to be in and I definitely did not see any women strutting around with skimpy dresses - and Krystal wearing halter tops too - come on!

 

[Debbie6221]

I think I am going to like this Ryan story line!!!
BTW...WTH was with JRs outfit on Friday???? OMG was the jacket badazzled???
Thanks for listening...
Debbie...I lurk.....

 

[Deb & Bill]

Well, at least he had a jacket on. Did Annie really only wear a sweater to the hospital with Ryan? Or do they have a magical coat room at PV Hospital where you can leave your wrap?

 

[grinningghost]

Tell me she doesn't look just like Babe?

I really can't stand her anymore. No WAY in the world a guy like JR would pick Mrs. Thistlewhite over the likes of Amanda. No way.

Well now, Annie was in a big hurry to obtain medical help for that fruitloop husband of hers - no time for overcoats.

And, in what hospital anywhere else does the Chief Of Staff personally see every single patient that walks through the door? Give Dr. Joe a break already. And is Nurse Hoolia the only nurse available anymore? She's on every case too. Joe and Hoolia must be privy to some extremely potent caffeine.

 

[Deb & Bill]

Also, what's with everyone wearing white? Did AMC get a good deal on scrubs? I work in a hospital and go to our community hospitals all the time and NEVER, NEVER see the entire staff in white.

this has GOT to be the funniest post i've ever seen on this thread!
And SOOOOO true!
