All My Children fans

Shame shame Beanie. ;)

You know they have not aged Colby but when is the last time they have actually shown the child?? I dont know when the last time is that I saw her. You know what gets me on these shows. The ladies long for kids for so long and once they have one they (kids) spend more time with their nannies. Look at Edmunds kids, how many times do we see them? He is always in the house with Anna, why is he not spending time with his kids? :rolleyes:
 
I know, I know...

*hanging head in shame*....

Hey, where is Colby anyway???:rolleyes:

Christine...I totally agree about Edmund...He is always home and never with his kids!! LOL

Can someone give me a recap of today's show?? I missed it!!! I wasn't home! Please??

Anyone?
Anyone?

Helllooooooooooooo.............
 
Me too, I didn't see it either! Is the guy dead that Tad shot? Why did Dixie act soo stupid about the guy dying? She acted as if he really wasn't dead! God, she is getting on MY nerves! Aaacckkkk! So, what happened? I heard that Kelly is going to SSW this year! Yay! She usually goes every year.
 
Anyone??? Come on...Poohbear and myself are anxiously awaiting....okay, okay, so I am anxiously awaiting all by myself...LOL :)

Did anyone see the show today??:eek: :eek:
 

Where is everybody else? I saw the show yesterday so I'll try to fill you in. The guy that was after Tad is dead, but he wasn't shot. They think he died of a heart attack or stoke. Chris Stamp arrived just in time to save Tad from having to go to jail. He'd had a tail on the bad cop and they knew that he'd boarded a plane and they figured that it was the one that Tad was on. THIS freaked out Dixie-I guess she was thinking about him watching their antics on the plane. The local police released Tad to Chris and they are headed home with the body to have it autopsied, but Chris doesn't expect to find that it was an ordinary death, and there was a sinister shot of someone throwing away a drug syringe.
Adam got home to look for Liza and found Ryan coming down the stairs. He blew a gasket about Ryan "doing" Liza in his own bed, but Ryan said she wasn't there. Adam found a note from her saying that she was taking Colby and leaving town and not to follow her. Adam was giving Winifred he** for letting Liza go and letting Ryan in when Liza returned. She had left Colby someplace safe and come back. She'd decided to stand up to Adam instead of reacting to what he had done. She told him that she would continue to live in the house, but not sleep with him, and that she would have sole custody of Colby and that if he did anything to piss her off in the future she'd be gone and take Cloby and he'd never see them again. When Ryan left the house, he took one of Adam's Faberge eggs with him, and used it to buy a motorcycle from some guy in an alley.
Laura and Leo apparently had a less than satisfying time in bed, and Leo went out to sit on the porch. Jake returned home and found Greenlea curled up watching a sappy movie and got on her case about making a mess in his house. She tells him that she hates him and all men. Leo senses someone standing over him and opens his eyes to find Greenlea standing there. There talk about how hot it is and then Leo catches himself and tells her to go away. She tells him that Jake has asked her to move in with him and that she just went for a drive to think about it and he tells her to be happy and she says she will be because Jake is everything she wants and walks away. Laura has been watching from the window. Greenlea goes back to Jake's and asks if she can stay with him because her place is still such a mess and he says yes and kisses her and tells her that he'll make her forget whatever Leo has done to her. Leo falls asleep and is dreaming about what he wishes had happened with Greenlea when Laura comes out and wakes him up and tells him that she saw how he looked at Greenlea and that he should go to her.
I think that this is mostly what happened, but I may have missed something.
 
I think you covered it all. :) I'll elaborate a little on the Ryan/Adam storyline because I enjoyed it so much!

I like Smirky Ryan. He was adorable yesterday. When Adam first got home and saw Ryan coming down the stairs, Ryan let Adam think he had bedded Liza in their bed. Adam's blood pressure hit the roof. These two had great chemistry in yesterday's scenes. Winifred showed a little backbone yesterday while Adam was brow-beating her. And Smirky Ryan jumped to her defense a couple of times. I loved the whole thing.

Hubba, hubba - did Jake look better than usual yesterday or was it just me?! He got a haircut or something and lost the crutches and knee brace. I also really enjoyed the Jake/Greenlee scenes yesterday. I loved when Greenlee came back to the condo and Jake answered the door (she actually knocked!) she said, "I'm about to say something that has never crossed these lips. I'm sorry." She really is Erica Jr and I'm loving it!

Leo was given his out by Pathetic Laura yesterday. I wish he would take it but I'm sure he won't. Besides, I'm enjoying Jake and Greenlee too much right now. I don't want Leo available again too soon but I don't want to watch him constantly being smothered by Pathetic Laura either. Let's send them off on a 3 month honeymoon cruise. Maybe Laura will fall overboard and drown. :p

I'll spare you my comments on Ditsie/Tad. I think everyone pretty well knows where I stand on that one. LOL! :D

Hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend! We've had over 12.5 inches of rain in a week (southeast of Houston) but the sun is trying to peek out so I hope it's done. Enough already! (Uh, oh - as soon as I write about the sun coming out, here comes the clouds and I hear thunder off in the distance. :( I think I'll go check the radar.)

EDIT: Whew! It was just a passing shower at the tailend of the latest band of showers that came through this morning. It looks clear behind it for the first time in loooong time. Keeping fingers crossed and boat at the ready. :)
 
Don't be silly, Beanie - I enjoyed reading about Tad and his coconuts before I saw the show.....at least I was forewarned (hee hee!).

Yes, Jake definitely looked better than usual, yesterday, Aprille58 - I think that they're trying to make him "studlier", now that he's going to be competing with Leo for Greenlee. I think that they're trying to make his personality less "whiny" (like he was with Gillian) and more "mysterious" (ie: he doesn't seem to get jealous about Leo's contact with Greenlee any more, and he's rather vague with Greenlee about his whereabouts sometimes, which drives her crazy), too. And I'm right there with you about Leo and Laura, too - MY skin crawls when I see her lurking behind doors and by windows, spying on Leo, and then coming out and whining and smothering him to death! You're right - Leo is not going to take the "out" that she gave him.....but he will self-destruct if he doesn't do something soon!

Did I see Mia grabbing Ryan and kissing him, in the previews for Monday??? UGH - we knew it was going to happen sooner or later, didn't we? And we predicted the storyline with the 2 sisters "fighting over" Ryan, too. Oh well - it will be interesting to see how it plays out, anyway! I really think that Liza should forget about Adam and Ryan, and go with David - he needs someone to be with, now!

Hope that everyone is having a wonderful weekend! And hope that the weather conditions improve down there, Aprille58!
 
Thanks, IASW Rider. Weather conditions have improved. We actually saw the sun most of yesterday afternoon which was a welcome sight but, man, was it MUGGY. It was like walking in a steam bath! We've had a couple of brief showers today but they seem to be moving rapidly so hopefully won't be dropping any significant amounts of rain.

Ooooh, I like the idea of Liza and David. I hadn't really thought of it before because they hate each other so much but we all know what a thin line there is between love and hate - especially on soaps. LOL! And yes, you did see Mia grabbing Ryan and kissing him on the previews for Monday. Let me second your "UGH!".
 
Hope that the humidity breaks soon, Aprille58! I hope that the rest of your weekend is more comfortable, down there!

Yes, if Liza went with David, that would be the "ultimate revenge" against Adam, since he ruined their marriage by allowing David to blackmail him and JR. Plus, I think that Liza and David would be good together - a lot better than Liza and Ryan or David and Ditsie!
 
Was that the same guy who plays Jake? He looked entirely new! Thanks for the update! I will let you all know when more is added to the SSW this year. Have a nice weekend, I have to work but I get paid extra!:D
 
Hello ladies, how is your weekend going? Today is my first day back to work after being off all week. Needless to say, I dont want to be here!

I missed the show on Thursday and Friday so I am not much help!

Well I will post the sneak peeks for the week if I have time tonight, they usually are not updated till around midnight.
 
Thanks for all the wonderful recaps...I also got 3 PM's from Sherry telling me about the show as well!!! You guys are great!! Much better than any ole soap magazine!! LOL

I hope everyone is having a great Labor Day!! Is the show still on today or no? Anyone know? :)
 
It's on today here, Beanie.

I'm going to visit my parents next month. They live near Amarillo (Texas panhandle). All My Children is not even shown there. :eek: Can you believe that?! What kind of backwater town is that?! :D I have to tape the show and watch when I get home. At least Mom has a computer (she's a DISer too, Aunt Jo) so I can check in on this thread daily! :)

The sun is shining today. :) We had over an inch of rain yesterday bringing our weekly total to 13.75 inches. :eek: :eek: :eek: I hope it's done!

Happy Labor Day, all! :)

Christine...I only saw the last 1/2 hour of the show today and I am not good at recapping, but everyone else is...they are awesome!! LOL Thanks for the previews...Brooke and Edmund explore a relationship!!!! Whoo hoo...great news!!! What is up with Adam? He is usually the one in control of everything and now he is bowing down to Liza!! Too funny!

Aprille...what kind of town is that??? LOL...does your Mom live on a mountain?? ;) That is funny because I live in a backwater town myself, but we have satellite, so no worries..but my friend, Becky, lives on top of a mountain out here and she gets one channel...ABC, but it comes in fuzzy half the time!!! I am like, "How can you live up there.."...It is amazing that they actually have indoor plumbing!!!:eek: :eek: ROTF! By the way, you can't rant to me about Tad/Ditsie anytime you want to!!!! I love reading your rants about them!! I always agree!:rolleyes:

I am with all of you on the Liza/David relationship...that would be cool! I actually think they would make a great couple together...although right now it is really hard to picture them together! LOL

Is the Gillian/heaven story line over now? I remember someone here saying that she had a contract until December, but really I hope that it is dead now (no pun intended! LOL) It is just getting boring with her...

Did you guys see the previews for tomorrow? Ditsie actually knows how to fight!! I was laughing so hard...I was thinking, "Oooh that must have hurt...NOT"...LOL


Okay, I am done ranting now....LOL...hope everyone had a great holiday!!
 
Beanie - actually my parents have satellite but they get all the network channels out of Amarillo so no AMC. :( They moved there from Austin about 10 years ago and the first time I visited them I started looking for my soap. My mom doesn't watch so she didn't know if or when it came on. I couldn't find it in the local listings. My cousin finally told me it didn't come on there. I was like, whaaaat?!?!? :eek: Amarillo is a fairly good-size city. I think the population is close to 200,000. They have 2 newspapers, for crying out loud. Houston doesn't even have that anymore! (Don't get me started! :mad: ) I have no idea why they don't broadcast AMC.

Highlights from today's show...

DITSIE WASN'T ON!! :D :p :D :p :D

Loved, loved, LOVED Liza growing her brain back. Marcy Walker and David Canary were both at the top of their game today. I had forgotten what a good actress Marcy was until today. Kudos to her! David Canary was also outstanding, as usual. Liza told Adam that being with him was like living with an addict only his drugs of choice are power and control. She can't live like that anymore. Adam finally accepts her terms which will keep her and Colby in the house. He tells her how much he loves her and is sorry for all the pain he has caused her. She tells him actions speak louder than words and if he doesn't live up to his end of the bargain they could be divorced within 6 months. YOU GO, GIRL!

I'm loving the new suave, debonair, mysterious Jake. Greenlee obviously is too! ;) She doesn't understand why he wants her when he knows how she feels about Leo. Jake plays it cool. He wants to show her how good things can be. Uh huh. :D They make love. He gets called to the hospital afterwards. Greenlee has a very satisfied smile on her face after he leaves. I would too! ;)

I actually kind of enjoyed the Ryan/Mia scenes today. Ryan shows up at a bar. I can't tell where it is. I don't think it was one of the "regular" places. Maybe it's that dive Adam use to own. He orders a tequila shot and a beer. Mia comes from the end of the bar and tries to pay for his drink. Ryan goes off to a table to be alone but, of course, Mia follows him. She shows him a wad of money she won in a poker game. He tells her it's dangerous to be "flashing that much coin" in a place like this. He keeps trying to blow her off so she says she is going looking for Liza. Ryan advises her against that and tells her she's having it out with her husband. Mia thought she had taken the baby and skipped town. Where is she? Then she grabs Ryan and kisses him. He tries to push her away but she begs him to kiss her again so the guys who just came into the bar won't see her face. Too late. Big Hairy Biker is at their table with a couple of buddies. He accuses her of cheating him out of his money. Ryan says, "She does that." LOL! Big Hairy Biker threatens Mia which Ryan takes exception to and so he gets in Big Hairy Biker's face threatening to kick his butt. Mia grabs Ryan's keys off the table, runs out the door, starts his motorcycle and revs the engine. VROOM, VROOM! Ryan runs after her. Next time we see them they're pulling off to the side of the road. Mia is driving and Ryan is on the back. She tells him his bike needs an oil change and he better take care of it soon. He yells at her for taking his bike. She says she was just keeping him from getting beat to a pulp. He says, "Oh, so you were helping me?!" I thought they were kind of cute together today. I guess Mia is growing on me. But I reserve the right to change my mind. LOL!

Leo and Laura had it out. I think Laura actually grew some of her brain back too. I saw some brief glimpses of it today anyway. Leo is still trying to convince her that he loves her but she finally made him admit today that the only reason he married her was because she was about to die. She had an "episode" during the argument and I thought, uh huh, she's faking it but the way the scene played out I guess she wasn't. She told him she wasn't sick anymore and he was free to go. I think this made him see how much he really does care for her but I'm getting so bored with this storyline I may have nodded off. LOL!

Tomorrow's previews show Ditsie slapping David. Witch! I'm sure he says something to deserve it but it takes two to tango, honey! She always tries to pass herself as Miss Innocent. Puhleeze! :rolleyes: :p
 
P.S. Beanie - I'm the one who posted that Esta Terblanche (sp?) had signed a contract through December. I got the info from SoapCentral. Whether they'll keep the storyline that long, I don't know. I don't mind it so much now that it's not on very often. I love having Jessie back. He's a riot! :D But I don't know how long they can keep this going without alienating the audience. Of course, that's never stopped them before! :p
 
Yeah, really Aprille...I mean, look how long they have played out Tad and Ditsie!!:D :p

We only have a population of 2500 where I live...how pathetic is that?? We have one local paper that comes out once a week...I think everyone is related to everyone else too...LOL...that would explain alot about my friends!:eek: :rolleyes: LOL I was not raised here...I just moved here when my parents decided too...why I stayed I have no idea?:confused: ...oh wait, I forgot...I stayed because my husband lives here too! ROTF...Hopefully someday, we will sell our house and move to Florida like I want!!:rolleyes:

Nice recap by the way!! :)
 
Beanie - my parents don't actually live in Amarillo. They live 35 miles east of there in a town of about 2,000. There are 2 stoplights on Main Street. There was only one until a couple of years ago. That's progress for ya! :D Their town only has a weekly newspaper too. The town I live in has a population of about 20,000. We moved here from Houston 3-1/2 years ago. We live close enough that dh still works there. I've only lived in Dallas and Houston so this is a small town to me. LOL! We have a brand spanking new Wal-Mart Supercenter and Signature Kroger (fancy-schmancy grocery store) so what more does a girl need?! :D

Please, don't remind me about the never-ending Tad/Ditsie saga. :rolleyes: I'm trying so desperately to forget! :p Jake has been helping me with that the last few days! ;)
 
I got that one beat...We have <b>NO</b> traffic lights in our town!!!:D The closest one is 45 minutes away...the closest Walmart is one hour...Target is three hours...Pathetic, I tell ya!!:eek:


Aprille...If you never mentioned Tad/Ditsie again, that would be fine with me as well!! LOL!! I think we both agree on them!! I just wish they would show more of Jackson to take my mind off them!!;)
