Mia--Shut the fuck up! Is it too much to ask for her to meet Paul Cramer, decide he's cute, follow him to Llanview and have an unfortunate encounter with the Music Box Killer??
Llandview already has a long list of equally deserving characters who should meet that fate.
However, seriously Mia needs to shut the hell up. She serves absolutely no purpose, other than giving us a good reason to see Aiden without his shirt, but it's not like the really need a good reason.
Also, for all of this fighting about Enchantment and Fusion who the hell is running those to companies right now? It doesn't seem like it would be that difficult to get them back if they you know went to work once in awhile because it doesn't appear that either of those companies are at the top of Kendall's priority lists.
Seriously, someone needs to just smack Greenlee. Why doesn't she just go back to working at Fusion and if Kendall gets sent to jail she can go on running it and if she gets off she can start fighting after the trial.

Lena is helping Kendall run Enchantment (as well as Cambias). I believe Greenlee/Simone/Mia are still running Fusion--when Carlos died, they were all there at Fusion weeping over his death. Greenlee's whining about Kendall taking the company away is in reference to Kendall not giving her back 50/50 ownership.

Thanks BK but my point was more they Greenlee and Erica keep yakking about Kendall taking away their companies but neither Enchantment or Fusion is featured in any storyline at the moment so it is incredibly boring and I wish they would just shut the hell up.

Greenlee's whining about Kendall taking the company away is in reference to Kendall not giving her back 50/50 ownership.
And you know, Kendall would have given Greenlee the 50/50 back if Greens had only supported her when the Cambias marriage story broke. Greenlee sided with Smoan and Mia, the three of them being all horrified that Kendall had the BAD TASTE to marry her sister's rapist. Which of course pissed Kendall off, rightfully so because anyone with more than a couple of braincells to rub together could have figured out that Kendall was up to something with that whole marriage rigamarole. So that takes care of Mia not figuring it out but what's the other two's excuse?

Word to the Maggie champagne scene. Just once I wish that Binky would go off on her supposed best friend especially now that she has her girlf- sister and Lena to show her what true devotion is .But then that would point out that Maggie as a character really isn't any more necessary than Mia, and we know that won't happen to Liz since she's a Frons favorite.
As far as the ratings go a rising tide is lifting all boats and AMC can't budge in overall terms of standings. Breaks my heart. Not.

But after Lianca really got going, we got the above scenes with Henry, and Liz stopped playing subtext. Eden, OTOH, had dropped the subtext as soon as the January scenes aired, something for which I was always grateful. I figure she was as sick as I was of playing unrequited love/desire--she implied as much in an interview at the time.
Yes, Eden stopped playing the subtext immediately, I also got the feeling that she was tired of the urequited love thing. She had been playing it for almost 3 years! Liz, OTOH has always played up the subtext, it's the only thing saving her now. If she hadn't had this friendship with Bianca, I really believe she would have been out of there after Henry. I wonder how she's going to explain herself if they do actually have Maggie have sexual, romantic feelings for Bianca? Think they will even mention last January? They better. If Maggie comes on to Bianca, I want Bianca to be all "WTF? What was that shit at the boathouse? What about Henry?" I'd like to see McHack put a spin on that one.
Yeah, exactly, especially in light of the Maggie/Henry scenes and Bianca's good looks. I know denial can be powerful, I've been there myself, but I'm really expected to believe that after all this time Maggie still wouldn't know one way or another if she has any sexual feelings for Bianca? Or I'm to believe that she's just suddenly developed sexual feelings for Bianca out of thin air? Please.
Honestly, if Maggie didn't know she wanted Bianca in that bikini then, she's not gay. I mean, really! Even in the deepest stages of denial, I always knew deep down that I was indeed, gay. I felt it. I may have denied it to myself, but I knew it was there. I just don't see how BAM would be believable now.

I'm not sure how much Bianca would want to actually talk about the boathouse, Henry, etc. She's been down this road with Maggie before and she's long since moved on. I think Maggie would probably just get the "I care for you but only as a friend" speech. Kinda nice to think of Bianca getting to say that to someone else for a change.
I also enjoyed the Tad/Liza flashbacks, but I have a question. I wasn't around for the first go-round of Tad/Liza, in school with Jesse Hubbard and all. All their early stuff of Tad coming on to Liza seems very much like the Big Man on Campus pushing the shy, awkward virginal girl to have sex. Was Liza like a wallflower in high school or something?

Liza was after Greg in high school, but Greg loved the girl from the wrong side of the tracks Jenny. Liza pulled some pretty nasty stunts to pry them apart but no go. Then she is attracted to wrong side of the tracks Tad Martin. She was no shrinking violet in school and was the smug kid with money type. Tad put her in her place and she fell for him hard, only to discover that Tad was carrying on with her mother as well! Tad comes off somewhat sympathetically in this SL, as he was seduced Mrs. Robinson style by Marian and then blackmailed to keep the affair going. He cared for Liza a lot but naturally the romance blew up in their faces when Liza discovered what was going on.

Oh dear *god* no! She was the Cordelia Chase of PVH. She always hated Jesse & Jenny and pulled every trick in the book to get Jesse in trouble and pry Greg away from Jenny. She then fell for Tad and ended up getting her heart broken which in a way was cosmic karma coming back to kick her in the ass, especially since Tad was Jenny's brother *and* Tad ended up sleeping with *Marian*. Hee!
I sorta felt bad for Liza at that point cause they were in the process of rehabilitating her character, but given all the things she did and how she treated the rest of the teen set at that point & time it was kinda hard to feel *really* bad IMO.
The Angie/Jesse/Jenny/Greg/Liza/Tad/Alfred grouping I think is one of my favorite teen sets on soaps ever. The dynamics between *all* the folks were soooo much fun. I mean Jesse-Tad, Jenny-Tad, Jesse-Angie, Angie-Jenny, Tad-Liza, Liza-Jenny, Jesse-Liza, Alfred-Greg, Greg-Jenny, I mean *any* interaction between *anyone* in that grouping was pure gold IMO.
To this day I still miss Darnell & Debbi with a passion.

Well I agree that Bianca has been there and done that with Maggie, but if Maggie starts questioning her feelings for Bianca and even goes so far as to make a move on her then I think Bianca will want to know what is going on with her, being the good friend that she is. I do believe that Bianca has gotten over Maggie and has moved on, but I think she'll probably be curious about what has made Maggie change her mind. Then she can say "Let's just be friends", once she hears Maggie out. That is what I
hope will happen.

I meant to mention this, however briefly, yesterday. Uh huh, the MoYay was thick while Erica "felt the baby". What is it about Alicia that makes people of both sexes turn on the bedroom eyes? My, my.
And as for Bianca and Maggie's inevitable "big talk":
I believe that Maggie, considering that she turns into a malicious little snake in the grass when her back is against the wall, is going to try to undermine Lianca's relationship from the sidelines for as long as she possibly can, until finally Bianca asks her point-blank, just what the hell is going on. Then, Maggie will probably plant one on her, blah, blah, blah. . .big revealcakes. . .and
then if Bianca gives Maggie anything other than the "I love you as a friend" speech, I just might be pissed enough to turn the show off for good, because logically, that's the only way to go. Not that logic plays much of a role in the AMC McTrashiverse.

Word,
fearless. Just word!
If we got some kind of Maggie revisionist history where she's all I had to repress! Repress! I'll just be like what. ever. We all know she isn't that deep. Nobody possessing any kind of emotional depth would have to resort to guppy face as much as Maggie does.
If Maggie does try to lay one on Bianca, I really have to believe that Bianca would be like "oh no ma'am". Too much has happened to Bianca in the past year, and I think BAM would represent a huge step backwards. Bianca is heading towards a more grown up place in her life, facing motherhood. Maggie is nowhere near the level of maturity that Bianca needs from someone. It wouldn't be two equals finally coming together. That would be
Lianca!
The Fusion gals can cram it. They're all a bunch of selfish little twits who can't see past their own navels. Maybe I've been watching
Spice World too much, (shut up, its a really funny movie, I
swear) but what ever happened to girl power? To sisterhood? To sticking by your friends? Or did they never have a friendship beyond the superficial to start with?
Black Knight
Jan 24, 2004 @ 5:30 pm
Bianca's asked Maggie a couple of times what's up, specifically in regards to Lena, and Maggie's either evaded altogether or blamed her attitude on not trusting Lena because of her past. Bianca seems to have mostly concluded that Maggie might be feeling a little left out and as such, has made more of an effort to include her. She does have a terrific BS detector, but between her general policy of not pushing someone unless it's absolutely necessary, and her already having so much on her plate, she's been content to let it go at that. After Maggie's hysteria over the Champagne Incident and her subsequent stating ad nauseum that she's straight, Binks certainly isn't going to ask her whether maybe she's sexually confused again.
I want to see Vengeful!Binks. Damn, that'd be so hot.
Today at lunch, since we've been taking strolls down memory lane on this board in the last few days, I was thinking back to two years ago when Bianca wanted revenge on Vanessa for Frankie's murder. Maggie was refusing to testify and trying to leave town and Bianca was mad because it meant Vanessa might get away with it all. After she left Maggie in her hospital room, she went down the hall, fuming the entire way, and then looked in on Vanessa in her hospital room. She looked absolutely murderous in that shot--even Vanessa looked a little freaked--and so very, very, very,
very hot. Damn. I've still got that on tape somewhere. If I were dating Bianca, I'd be seriously torn over the risks versus benefits of purposely annoying her all the time. Scaaaaaary temper, but oh so sexy.
Or did they never have a friendship beyond the superficial to start with?
I'd say it's that. Greenlee has always been a backstabbing little troll who turns on her Fusion pals at the drop of a hat. Simone is good-hearted, but it's Greenlee and Mia who are her friends and she isn't really strong enough to go against the flow. Kendall never really formed a relationship with Mia or Simone. Kendall and Greenlee both have huge trust issues, and Greenlee simply can't trust Kendall the way Kendall needs her to here, so Kendall can't trust Greenlee either. While I'm totally on Kendall's side, I have to admit that she doesn't make it easy for people to stand by her. Everyone except Bianca who tries to support Kendall is generally met with constant suspicion and hostility and bravado, because Kendall believes they will all betray her at some point. Bianca is the only one Kendall trusts completely and unquestioningly. Someone like Greenlee, whose natural attitude towards women is set to "nonstop bitchery" anyway, can't deal with that. In Greenlee's mind, if you expect her support and trust, you have to tell her everything (and also give her everything she asks of you, even if it's to combine two companies, boot out your own mother, and hand the shebang over to her). Hmmm, she sounds a lot like Maggie there. Remember Maggie's ridiculous tirade when she learned Binks was still pregnant?

Black Knight, I agree with you that Bianca's not going to want to go there, or perhaps may not even think to go there. However, she
is going to want to know what exactly Maggie's problem is, (remember McTrash said something about
Maggie's feelings for Bianca causing her to engage in some unexpected behavior, or some such happy horseshit) and will probably press the issue. Maggie, looking for an excuse to make her "feelings" known anyway, will then, practically unprompted, make the big reveal. That's what I think, anyway.
If I were dating Bianca, I'd be seriously torn over the risks versus benefits of purposely annoying her all the time. Scaaaaaary temper, but oh so sexy.
I've given this quite a bit *ahem* make that,
some, thought myself. And I think I'd go for the purposely annoying route--you know, deliberately develop a few personality quirks that might get me yelled at every now and then. Leaving my wet towels on the floor, not wiping up my coffee cup ring from the kitchen counter--that sort of thing. The benefits would be worth the risks.
Black Knight
Jan 24, 2004 @ 6:35 pm
I can't see Bianca pressing the issue while Kendall's trial is ongoing. She has total tunnel vision right now--Lena actually finally lost her temper enough to start fighting with Maggie in front of Bianca and Bianca didn't even notice. She's postponed telling Erica about the pregnancy until after the trial. And so on. I mean, everything that doesn't have to do with Kendall's trial simply has to wait as far as Bianca's concerned. (And I can't even imagine what would happen if Kendall was convicted.) After the trial, it would depend on Maggie's behavior--if it escalated, then yeah, Bianca would eventually confront her. The real question is whether Maggie will wait until the trial's over. I hope she doesn't, because that guarantees she'll get the worst possible reception from Bianca.
And I think I'd go for the purposely annoying route--you know, deliberately develop a few personality quirks that might get me yelled at every now and then.
Hee. Yeah, I've often thought I'd probably do the same. Hopefully on the show, if and when Lianca get back together, Lena will realize she shouldn't always try to be the perfect, sweet girlfriend. I'm sure she can come up with something to annoy Bianca.

I know that TPTB are not going to get rid of Greenlee, but can I ask them to toss Mia out? please? She is so useless as a character and I am beginning to find her to be an embarrasment. It's almost painful to watch Mia on the screen. And why oh why does she think Kendall's baby is Aiden's?? Just trying to figure out her logic gives me a headache.

I'm almost definite that Maggie will wait until the trial is over. I'm guessing that it's going to come sometime after the trial, but before Bianca gives birth. Speaking of which:
As for the Fusion ladies, I am really curious how the fallout from Greenlee's snooping and Mia's meddling is going play out.
The trial, I think, has about another two weeks to go, before Greenlee makes some huge gesture in court. Some are speculating that
whatever Greenlee does to expose Kendall's fake pregnancy is going to force the real killer to confess within moments, probably right there in the courtroom. Personally, I think Greenlee's just going to rush Kendall and rip her dress off, displaying her pregnancy pillow in all its glory to the world. Seeing Kendall attacked will then make Bianca remember seeing Michael attack her, which made Bianca reach for the gun and peel his cap. One way or another, Greenlee's inexplicable desire to see Kendall's fake pregnancy revealed is going to bring an end to the trial.I've said enough about why I think this whole Greenlee/Mia vendetta against Kendall is contrived bullshit, so I'll just have to
WORD everything that's been said about it as of late.

I wonder what this will mean, if anything, for Bianca's upcoming storyline, and more importantly, Kinks. Hmmm. Jealous!Kendall?

I'm reeeeeeeeeal curious at just how far the Maggie/Lena sniping will go. I doubt this will be a one-shot of Lena getting pissed enough to react in front of Bianca. Sisterfriend has
had it. Now, as has been stated, Bianca has no time (nor inclination) to play referee.
Especially with Uncle Jack getting arrested, I'm sure Maggie and Lena bludgeoning each other to death over the TV remote, will not be getting a positive reaction from Binks. So, unless they call a truce while Bianca's in earshot, you guys may get your Pissed!Off!Binky sooner than later. Hee. Hopefully they'll chill because Bianca's temper is, indeed,
very scary. It's always the nice ones that will unload harshly on your ass when pushed. Yikes, man.
As far as the Maggie "Look ma! I'm gay!" reveal........ I don't have the strength to speculate. Thanks for doing it for me. But a total word on if Bianca hasn't tempted out Maggie's inner girl lovin' fairy by
now, then Mag's is straighter than straight. Unless maybe Maggie's only attracted to Binks now that Bianca is (weeps) dressing badly. Huh. Maybe Maggie has a fear of cleavage?

I'm responding out of spoiler tags because it's not spoiler info - Kelly Monaco can act. Her character on GH mostly sucks though. I feel sorry for KM. Since joining GH, her character has been beaten, almost raped, hit in the head with rocks, and suffered a string of other indignities. On Friday, she was Sonny's revenge fuck. KM deserves so much better, but then so does the rest of the GH cast (or at least most of them). The sad part is KM was rumored to have turned down a part on ATWT for this crap because she wanted to stay in LA. I hope she has some cute honey to go home to every night that makes staying in LA worth it.
Saw Josh in Win a Date with Tad Hamilton. Movie was okay. Josh was terrific. He really seemed like a movie star. And, as difficult as it may be to believe, he was so much hotter than when he was on AMC. He was always cute, but he's much more manly and less boyish (this may not be news to Vegas watchers). He was gorgeous, hot, sexy, charming, perfect. I'll have one of those, please.

As far as McTrash, man that woman has serious issues and needs help. Besides featuring a rape on every show she has written, look what she has done to woman friendships..........destroys the friendship of the fusion woman, and now turns Maggies friendship into something sexual.
The show truly sucks. They have some good actresses on the show but with Mctrash writing the characters they have been reduced to mere shadows of what they once were........even Rebecca can't save how they are portraying Greenlee now. Only Olga keeps me interested now. Its amazing how much she can do with so little.

I don't think this has been discussed yet, but Chip Hayes former writer/director/producer of Melrose Place has been doing some writing for AMC lately, although he isn't on contract. Guess there's no hope that Fronsie will buy a clue and dump McTrash and install Chip as HW - MP might have been over the top, but at least it was intentionally over the top and I can't think of anything they did that even approach Voldemort for bad taste. Besides, AMC has had it's ott moments as well - i.e. Janet from Another Planet, LaLucci playing Erica at 14, Vanessa turning into Nessa... At least Chip would probably encourage Pervy to go wild with the Yay! - Sis and otherwise.

Kelly Monaco's Sam is such a trainwreck of a character, essentially reduced to a convenient vagina (see GH thread for plenty of their intelligent posters explaining in detail) that I
wouldn't want to see her anywhere near AMC, Bianca or Kendall. KM was hot as Livvie. Sam's so pathetic that I don't find her hot. Anyway, I think this rumor's very unlikely.
Bianca hasn't mentioned her stepmother or half-siblings in ages. There's been no mention of them calling to talk to Bianca about Voldemort or anything. The last time Barbara was brought up was, IIRC, something like ten months ago when Erica indulged in another go-round of "It's my fault Bianca's gay because I lost custody of her."boris, I think Erica decided it had to be fake. Ryan did make a mention that he bought a particularly good pregnancy pouch, in an attempt to leave it ambiguous, but Erica was just too nice to Kendall after her testimony. She made it clear to Bianca that if Kendall were truly pregnant with the Assfetus, she'd cut Kendall out of her life for good. Even if the pregnancy pouch were convincing, Erica's really, really good at denial. She doesn't want to believe Kendall's pregnant, so it'd get a lot to convince her that Kendall is pregnant, and that she is pregnant with Michael's baby.
I'm sure Maggie and Lena bludgeoning each other to death over the TV remote, will not be getting a positive reaction from Binks. So, unless they call a truce while Bianca's in earshot, you guys may get your Pissed!Off!Binky sooner than later.
Yup, that's why it's so smart that up until the last go-round, Lena's been coming off as nothing but gracious and classy in front of Bianca, while Maggie's been coming off as the annoying bitch. Lena's lucky Bianca was so preoccupied that she didn't notice when Lena finally slipped up, because you're right, if Lena and Maggie's catfighting gets blatant enough to take Bianca's attention from the trial for even a minute, Binks won't be pleased about it. Any other time, she'd be willing to play referee, she's been doing it for most of her life and it's ingrained in her. But not while the trial's ongoing. As long as Bianca just sees Maggie being a bitch, Maggie will get the irritation, but if Lena starts up, then she's going to be irritated at both of them.
But a total word on if Bianca hasn't tempted out Maggie's inner girl lovin' fairy by now, then Mag's is straighter than straight. Unless maybe Maggie's only attracted to Binks now that Bianca is (weeps) dressing badly.
That or she only finds women attractive when they're pregnant. Sure. That scene with Maggie flashing back to tanktop-wearing Bianca would have worked as a realistic sign of sexual confusion and realization that she might feel something a bit non-platonic for Bianca...if it'd happened two years ago. Or even a year ago. But after all this time? No.
At least Bianca's courtroom outfit is cute...I like the whole look she's doing now of long jackets with scarfs--cute in a sort of preppy sophisticate way. It's when she's alone at home that she dresses badly these days. Obviously she doesn't care about cuting herself up for Maggie. Snerk.

Hmmm....the news that Chip Hayes wrote for Melrose Place could be all the proof we need that he is indeed Pervy. Because Melrose Place? Yeah.
[shallow voice] OMG! Kelly Monaco is hot! HOT! [/shallow voice]She can steam up Pine Valley whenever she wants. Just as long as she's wearing something black and tight fitting;-)
And just because I'm curious: Why would a baby store be selling a faux preggy belly foam pad anyway?

Buttload of spoilers gakked from yahoo groups and Soap Opera Network. But I found them over at LJ so I'll
link to it there. I tried to just post 'em but it would've been too long.
Tad and Liza do it? Whoo-hoo! Sorry Timone fans but I'm all about the Tiza. Damn, Tad's really getting some lately.

Anyway, I think this rumor's very unlikely.
Probably so but Jealous!Kendall would be funny. We'd get a lot of Kinks mileage outta that! *rowr*
Ahem. I wonder if it would threaten Kendall if
Molly blew into town? I know Kendall's aware that Bianca only has about fifty million people in her inner circle (her list of people she loves went on and on) and another five billion that could be considered close aquaintances, but Kendall has the monopoly on the
sister role. I would be curious to see if
Molly entering the picture would trip off Kendall's insecurities. Not that I believe anyone could come between Kinks at this point. If nothing else, Kinks have bonded over Kendall jr in a way that none of the other people in Binky's life honestly share or can truly empathize with.
That or she only finds women attractive when they're pregnant.
My pet theory is that Maggie has become enamored with the champion role. In the past, it was Bianca as the caretaker and Mags as the cared for. It seems Maggie has started basing a lot of her identity on her role in Bianca's life. I mean, other than being Binky's best friend, the girl has got nothing going on in her life.
Hmmm....the news that Chip Hayes wrote for Melrose Place could be all the proof we need that he is indeed Pervy.
Yepper, Pervy may be outed! Was there much HoYay or IncestYay on Melrose?

From Eden's board, the latest spoiler about a BAM kiss. This comes from a BAM fan, so take it with a grain of salt.
http://pub104.ezboard.com/fedenriegelfanfo...picID=578.topicHave it on good authority that there will be a BAM kiss. Time frame is a little vague, but as they are currently filming 3-4 weeks in advance, should be on air in Feb, possibly a sweeps gimmick.
Maggie kisses Bianca and when Bianca questions her, she freaks and goes and finds Jamie. They have sex, possibly in the back of a limo or something like that.
Also, the Cambias killer is a huge guarded secret on the set. Have a clue.

They are definitely going there. It sucks because it will bore the viewers or infuriate the "gays convert" crowd AND ripped off Lianca fans. The latter especially if there is tongue. I actually like Liz with Jaime and I hope the sex is fucking hot.

That didn't happen to me. But I did notice the copy/paste feature was disabled.
Convenient vagina? Well. THAT will make such an attractive tagline for Sam if they cross her over! If not, we can use it for Krystal! CV for short.
I tried to catch DLoFE on soapnet because I missed it the first time ... But, alas, I missed it again. I am SO not hunting moments on the net either. I am not that hardcore.
You know, I think The L Word is making me all pissed off with AMC. More so than usual. Anyone else? After tonight and then work tomorrow, I'll see if I can pick up the remote and watch on soapnet.

Okay, a little OT,
but aren't Liz and Eden really good friends in real life too? I understand it's acting and they HAVE kissed before, but personally speaking I would be thoroughly grossed out if one of my best friends was (soberly or not) sticking her/his tongue down my throat.I actually like Liz with Jaime
I would have liked to see Maggie and JR. So much pretty! Too bad he's already married to Boobe. Wait a second, what am I talking about? This is a soap opera; I could probably get Jaggie five different times before the end of this year.

Tea with JAM and (JAM) and bread! Maybe that's why they had JR tell Jaime that he is lucky (heh) to get a woman like Maggie Stone.
Two men, one tall and one short, battling for the affection of the two blonde midgets on the show? It's a Frons wet dream, I tell ya! But it would be fun.

Figures that Alicia, whose acting put everyone else's to shame, didn't even make the top 10 list.
If I were dating Bianca, I'd be seriously torn over the risks versus benefits of purposely annoying her all the time. Scaaaaaary temper, but oh so sexy.
Hate!Sex or Makeup!Sex with Bianca. Nice.
Funniest part about the Tad/Liza flashbacks from Friday was seeing MEK in leather pants. Tad the Cad, indeed.

Those things are a popularity contest. Poor Alicia, underrated as usual.

It's Uncle Daddy's head bobbing and after a while it's hypnotizing.
