The PBP never catches this kind of stuff.


Dude, we *have* to find you a perv friendly PBP. Yeah, there was some handshagging (which was funnier than usual because Kendall had this "She's holding my hand! Because she wants to stand by me through this! To reassure me! Whoo!" gooey eyed expression of love going on.) My personal favorite part was when Jack was cooing over Binks, telling her how proud he is of her for the millionth time, and Kendall is looking over at them longingly. I'm sure Pervy hides behind saying that you are supposed to think Kendall's jealous because she wants Jack to fawn over her, too, but that's blown when Kendall starts interjecting about how proud she is of Binks. Hee! She wants Bianca to know she loves Binky best. Awww...

*Ahem* That entire paragraph was brought to you by the new Pervy filter in my brain.

Anyway, Sean! I forgot to crow about Sean! When will Simone realize that he's the man for her. What? I'd watch it.

Mary: “It’s ‘WHOM’” *crickets chirping* *faucet dripping* …”nevermind.”


Hee! Loved that.
Black Knight
On the serious tip, I think our Lil' Bud has her sights focused on a career outside of daytime and both her last and latest relationship is all about getting her name out in the press.

I doubt it's coincidence that The Bachelor is an ABC show. With Bob and Estella breaking up the fastest of any of those couples, ABC would've wanted to prop up Bob somewhat. And the primetime ABC actresses don't need the boost and therefore aren't interested in going near Bob, so down to the daytime level they go...right to the popular actress who's maybe pinging the gaydar a bit too hard lately for the suits' comfort.

Pervy writers, Pervy directors, Pervy music supervisors, Pervy actresses, Pervy promo people...yup, all I need now is a Pervy PBP.

*Ahem* That entire paragraph was brought to you by the new Pervy filter in my brain.

Whaddya mean, new? Anyway, adored your entire Pervy paragraph and can't wait to get home to watch...

In defense of our Perviness, I'd point out that the board reaction to some of the more unfortunate examples of HoYay in the last week--the MoYay and such--proves that Kinks is not acting as a gateway drug, as bluedevilblue so darkly warned. We may be suckers for Kinks SisYay, but we have taste! Hee.

Soap mags also say that AMC has cast an actor in an unknown role ,I'm guessing this would be the Ryan relative. I'm also guessing that he will turn out to be an ex of Lena's since the goal is to keep them apart . I doubt it's for Maggie since she's too immature for Petey these days.
Ratings wise AMC is flat and only beating GL and Passions. Tankety -tank.

Whaddya mean, new?


Hee! I deserve that. I love my Kinks. My mother called today during AMC (with a spooky Erica-like timing) and as she yammered on, all's I was thinking was, "Please! Shut your damn hole, woman! I'm trying to see if Kendall will kick Jack's ass for fondling her lovechild and/or for touching Binky's belly!" Sad, no? In my defense, she was just talking about Celebrity Mole, so it isn't wrong for me not to want to hear about her disturbing Corbin fascination, right?. Hmph.

I'll but into the fame theory about Rebecca. Anything's better than thinking she actually likes that cretin. Ew, man.

Oh, and PLEASE tell me Rebecca Budig is not dating Bob Fucking Guiney!!!

BWAH! KerleyQ. Granted, I swore off nonreality "reality television" after the first Survivior and consequently missed the Life and Times of Bob F. Guiney as presented by ABC -- but isn't this guy a wannabe musician? Just be thankful that RB isn't as powerful as, say, Susan Lucci. Else, we'd have Bob and his Merry Band of Fame Whores serenading us from the stage at SOS.

See? There's always a silver lining.

That's an interesting thought, onewomanshow. I don't get how hooking up with this guy (or any reality show participant) could be interpreted as a step up on the ladder of celebrity, though (this isn't directed at you, by the way). If anything, the public's perception (okay, my perception) of these reality show contestants places him at the base of the ladder and would only serve to lower RB down a few rungs. Or, at least, make her part of a cruel future word association game:
- Oh, that's Rebecca Budig. Love her.
- Who?
- Rebecca Budig. From All My Children.
- ?
- From AMC and The View and ABCFamily.
- ??
- She dated that chubby-turned-skinny-dating contestant-faux musician guy Bob Guinney.
- Oh, Yeah! The short chick. What was that about?


allergic2love, you're just going to get kariyaki all excited over nothing. And who knows how much she can take considering the Mike Ass afterglow she's working. ;-)

Kendall flashes? But not? Awwwww.

I don't get how hooking up with this guy (or any reality show participant) could be interpreted as a step up on the ladder of celebrity, though (this isn't directed at you, by the way).

Not that I agree with this, but the Bachelors are considered catches by many idiot women out there, and Bob the biggest catch of all. (gagging) As for celebrity value, don't forget that Trista and Ryan were able to get $4 million from ABC for their nationally-televised horror of a wedding because of the celebrity status of that show. The Bachelor/ettes get constant publicity and magazine covers. So Rebecca will get plenty of ink for as long as the "relationship" lasts.

In my defense, she was just talking about Celebrity Mole, so it isn't wrong for me not to want to hear about her disturbing Corbin fascination, right?.

I'd say the only thing you did wrong was answering the phone during Kinks. Hee.

My head was totally screaming, "Who!? Who?! Greenlee? Bianca?! Hey, if it's Bianca, maybe she'll flash her back!"

I'm straight...no really, I am. REALLY!
kariyaki
I'm straight too but dammit if this show (and this thread) doesn't bring any latent homosexual urges screaming to the surface.

I'm going to go try and find my hetero side. Watching Mike Ass on repeat oughta do it.
Black Knight
My head was totally screaming, "Who!? Who?! Greenlee? Bianca?! Hey, if it's Bianca, maybe she'll flash her back!"

Bwah! Seeing as how Kendall has no rack and Bianca has the rackiest rack that ever racked, that's an even funnier visual. But we all know Kendall would be in heaven.

I agree, Black Knight, when we're comparing apples to apples (non-celebs to non-celebs, Trista to Ryan). And I know the old addage "no publicity is bad publicity," but I don't believe this kind of ink is good ink (for RB, at least). Just look at this board's reaction. If anything, it either smacks of the calculating publicity stunt you all speculated it to be (which probably wouldn't earn too many brownie points with the general public if they cared in the first place) and/or inspires bewildered wonderment at RB's taste in men if she actually likes the guy. Of course, I'm approaching this with the assumption that RB is dating BG because she wants to, for whatever reason, not from the standpoint that ABC fancies itself to be like the Hollywood Pimping Studios of old with their engineered "couples."

Okay, that's entirely enough speculating about the public/private lives of Daytime TV actresses for me. I'd rather concentrate on the Mike Ass I'll be seeing in 30 minutes. :-)
Black Knight
Well, remember, Rebecca is mostly known in daytime. So to become better known to everyone else in Hollywood, "dating" Bob is not a bad way to go. (And I'm sure ABC had plenty to do with the match.)

Remember how AMC watchers knew immediately that Josh Duhamel was destined for stardom? Well, no one outside daytime knew him from Adam, even after three years of soap viewers drooling over him and an Emmy. He had to start all over when he auditioned for Vegas and his movie. When he got the movie role, the Hollywood press talked about how an unknown had been cast in the role intended for an A-list star.

Daytime viewers may look at Rebecca and Bob and go "Ewww, why is she dating him?" but many non-soap-following people are going to look at Rebecca and Bob and say, "Hmmm, who's that hot woman he's dating? Oh, her name is Rebecca Budig and she's an actress? Ooo, she's gorgeous." So it does raise her profile. It's like Kelly Ripa--she had to get a job on the Regis show before she could get the primetime show that she wanted, so that people who didn't follow soaps would know who she was.

Shit. Shit. Shit. I'd finally crossed the line during the holidays where I didn't care about a single storyline. Not the Boobe saga, not the Kendall/Greenlee/Ryan triangle, not the trial or whodunit, not Kinks, not even drive-by Lena, with every Bianca scene now entirely focused on "the baby". I like Eden as an actor, but the endless obsession about what to do, who knows, who will learn about it, etc. is the most painfully boring storyline I've ever sat through. Every time "the baby" comes up, I can't help thinking of Jerry Seinfeld's "the baby" bit. So, having had enough, I finally found it fairly easy to stop the watching and/or taping of this dreadful show, only to check in on the board yesterday to discover some spoiler about Lianca returning to the front burner soon. Oy. Will they never let me rest? My only consolation is feeling it will somehow still all be about "the baby", thereby freeing that hour up for me once again.
kariyaki
Oh, goatie, if you don't want to return to the AMC fold, don't let that spoiler drag you back. That one pops up all the time and if we took it seriously, you'd see a lot more black bars on the screen because we'd probably be discussing it constantly.

Instead, it's Kinks Kinks Kinks. Obviously, our own depraved little minds are the most interesting thing about this show.
Black Knight
Actually, kariyaki, it does make sense though. We know McTrash can't juggle more than a couple of stories at a time, and the murder mystery and pregnancy will be winding down. That frees up Bianca somewhat. And we do have the official spoilers about the triangle, and the triangle turning into a quadrangle, so there's backup for this. I think the lack of discussion is mostly because we don't have enough specifics yet beyond the obvious, i.e. Lena and Maggie catfighting. Once we hear who the fourth member of the quadrangle will be, for instance, that makes things a little clearer and it'll be easier to speculate.

That said, I agree our pervy little minds are the most interesting thing going on right now. Snerk.
CKD
Why are we spending all this time chatting up the AssFace with Rebecca thing? And what's with the cynicism: can't Rebecca have perfectly bad taste in men? She would not be the only one. Case in point? Sharon Stone and Dwight Yoakam: need I say more?

Today's show was dreadfully boring: the Kinks was subpar and Reggie, Erica and the fondue were so, so wrong. Whom does she think she is, Mary?

Speaking of which, I love, love, love Mary. She's my backup girlfriend for when Myrtle is too drunk to...you know.

I'm going out on a limb but how cute were Jack and Kendall today? There really seemed to be some genuine concern on his part, and she seemed really touched. AM really does those surprised facial expressions well. Kendall always seems touched when anybody in Erica's circle accepts her for who she is.
gspiggott
Actually the US article mentioned she used to date one of the Spin Doctors and someone else who made me go EEEK , and wonder why Luscious permitted all this but then I figured it happened before Alicia came on the show.
There was a blind item that an East Coast soap was going to do a jaw dropper of a plot, maybe an umbrella story for Mike and his ass?

Now there's a reason to get me to tune into another soap. Anything that has to do with Mike or his beautiful, perfect, toned ass...::drool:: ahem, I'm so there! Now if we could only get a story focused only on Eden and HER, ummmm...assets.

Yeah, that was cool. Kendall watched Jack kiss Bianca on the forehead with this clear look of longing. Exactly which one of them she was directing that look at is a matter for conjecture, but she did seem truly surprised and touched when Jack kissed her as well. I think that today he finally realized just how much Kendall has been doing to protect Bianca, and that all of her machinations have been about protecting her love. . .er, sister. That kiss, and Kendall seemed to understand that, was a show of gratitude and support. Uncle Daddy is a bit of all right.

Bwah! Why, indeed? That having been said:

Hee. Luscious, honey, publicity is lovely, love is lovely--I'm all about the love, but I do believe it's time for you and your "bestfriend" to have a long chat. Save her from herself, know what I'm sayin'?

Isn't this rumored to be a long-running character having a sexual identity crisis? Who knows, you may be right. Hee.

Now I can't get the image of Rebecca sparkin' up in the back of an old VW van at a Phish concert with the dude from the Spin Doctor, who has no shoes on, out of my mind.


Bwah! Call me what you want, 'cause more than likely, it would be true, but that sounds kind of cool to me. Some Bob Marley playing on the eight track. . .Rebecca in a sarong. . .that's not a bad image. Nope.

Lord, I had to almost scroll to the bottom of the page to find AMC! Can't let that happen! So, now I need to make an episode-relevant comment. Well, I laughed when Adam told Tad to stay out of his walls. And I laughed as Mary shrank away from Krystal's touch as she passed by her. That's it. That's all I've got.

The second page. God, that's like ending up in "why I love BAM" land. *Freezerburns*

* Anyone notice that Binks referred to the Volderfetus today as "It?" Not "she," or "her." "She" was noticeably missing. Hmmm. Maybe McT grew tired of hearing 'she' this and 'her' that too. Or she's just trying to fabricate suspense and/or interest about the baby’s gender. Or maybe Pervy didn’t get the memo/mandate that every character must refer to the baby as “she” ad nauseum.

* During the 3 Fusion Girls and a Massive Tool scene -- just prior to Greenlee saying "(...) if Kendall has Michael's baby I'll cut the umbilical cord myself" (Hee.) -- Mia was steadily shoveling cheese fries into her mouth. Then, right after Greenlee displayed her shocking lack of dining etiquette; Mia abruptly stopped a fry midway to her mouth and tossed it back onto the plate. Heh! Nice touch by AH.

* Smoan cracked me up today.

* Bianca/Eden looked like Edith Ann in that rocking chair. And what kind of torturous apparatus is that anyway? Where are the CUSHIONS? If Maggie truly did buy that chair (I missed a couple of episodes), then she must be subconsciously taking her revenge on Bianca for mucking up their get-away plans. That's the kind of chair you let your company sit on when you don't want them to stay long.
** How do Erica, Kendall, and Bianca comprise 3 generations of Kane women? Unless you include Mona, I only count 2. Sorry if this has been rererehashed already.

* The previews. Ryan's going to make Kendall pass a [loyalty?, honesty?, tell him the entire truth about that night and Vegas?, ...] test? Ugh. Okay, maybe he's justified considering what he is giving up by supporting Kendall and her 'pregnancy.' But still. Ugh.

The thing I found hilarious about Greenlee, Smoan and Mia at the restaurant was that they were eating. I wonder if any of them were fighting off the urge to purge.

I found out that the Fusion women (minus Liza) will be on The View February 5th. I want to see that but I don't know if I can stomach those View women. Talk about hen cackling.

Me too. Even though Terri blows her lines alot and her laugh can be grating, I would miss Simone's worthless ass of a character if she were gone. If AMC starts a massive firing like every other soap lately, I hope Terri dodges the bullet. She makes me like Simone despite myself.

Yes, I really have nothing to say, but PToS is hovering awful close.
Black Knight

Given what chatterboxes Alicia and Rebecca can be, hopefully the View women won't be able to get in a word edgewise.

I think my favorite Kinks moment was when Jack left and Bianca sends this huge beaming look Kendall's way. Okay, so she was probably just happy about Jack, but the way my pervy mind interpreted it was: "We're finally alone!" especially as she then went and sat on the infamous brainstorming couch.

I noticed something else too: Bianca's worked her mojo on Kendall. Girlfriend--er, sister--is so totally whipped now. That handshagging--Kendall looked so adorably surprised that Bianca was all but declaring their love--oops, sisterly bond in front to Jackson--plus Binks's decision to stay for Kendall's sake has finished Kendall off. Did you notice how when Kendall was ragging on Jack for pressuring Bianca, all Bianca had to do was say, "Kendall" and Kendall shut right up? I don't think I've ever seen anyone be able to shut Kendall up with one word, or even with 50. Snerk. Then we get to their last moment, where Kendall's throwing out one worry after another and Bianca's calmly reassuring her one worry at a time. Awww, Kendall really does finally have the unswerving ally she can trust completely. It was nice to see her get that affirmation after the day she's had.

Looks like our speculation that if Erica rips into Bianca for keeping her baby, Kendall will go ballistic on La Kane will turn out to be correct. Kendall was really irritated, justifiably, by the idea that Erica would view Bianca keeping her baby as a betrayal, and definitely doesn't like anyone pushing Bianca. As it was, Jack was about to get his head ripped off, if Binks hadn't intervened and called Kendall to heel.

Oh, and SkiffyPup, after listening to the dialogue and reading the captions, Erica just said "sisters", not "real sisters". I wonder if AMC is thinking of casting one of them, as we all know the soap law that characters are usually never mentioned unless we're about to see them soon.

Oh, and in an ep full of funny moments, I thought the funniest was when Jack was talking about Bianca and Kendall planning to dupe a judge and jury, and Kinks looked at each other. BWAH! The guilty partners-in-crime looks on their faces just killed me. After this mess is over, AMC definitely needs to find some other scheme for Kinks to team up on.

In the interest of avoiding PToS:

When Mona originally said that, she was referring to herself, Erica, Kendall and Bianca.


You're right, kariyaki -- I actually remember watching the original scene with bratty Bianca and SMG's Kendall and, for some reason, I never tire of it when characters flashback to that scene. But, if I remember correctly, Bianca was all Grandma called us a legacy. Mom, Kendall, and me.. Anyway, I'm being anal and should have learned long ago to just roll with the punches. Because McHack has more than proven that she picks and chooses dialog to fit her plot, not what fits her characters.

ETA: Damn, why am I always hot on Black Knight's heels? Anyway,

I thought the funniest was when Jack was talking about Bianca and Kendall planning to dupe a judge and jury, and Kinks looked at each other. BWAH! The guilty partners-in-crime looks on their faces just killed me.

Nobody else choked on their drink when Bianca tells her Uncle Jack,
"Do you want to know how we got together?" Jack shut her up right away, but I was dying laughing at that one.

Damn, this thread has corrupted me y'all.
Mystic0

Hee! I loved that Kendall pulled Bianca back so she could stand protectively in front of her girlfrie....um, sister. Swoonworthy display of girlfriendness there, Kendall.

Have you seen these yet?

Maggie & Lena help to jog Bianca's memory
-Bianca recalls leaving Erica's penthouse the night Michael was killed in order to throw away Reggie's gun
-Bianca retraces her steps back to Cambias' condo
-Bianca comes across Erica at the condo which brings back more memories
-Bianca tells Kendall that she's doing all she can to clear her name
-Kendall tells Bianca to stop trying to find the answers--she could make things worse

I guess the fact that Bianca has such holes in her memory supports your theory of Bianca did it and the fact that Kendall wants Binks to back off falls in line with your Kendall knows Bianca did it spec. Thoughts?

"Do you want to know how we got together?" Jack shut her up right away, but I was dying laughing at that one.


Me! I wish Jack hadn't cut Bianca off. Maybe he was getting squicked out? I mean, damn. Bianca totally sounded like she was about to wax poetic about how Kinks fell for each other..uh, first bonded. Yeah, that's what I meant.
Black Knight
Oh yes, Mysticks Muse, I forgot about that line. Great stuff. Between that and the handshagging, Bianca all but outed herself and Kendall to Jack.

I love the Kane-Montgomerys. Between law-breaking-in-every-way Kinks, Uncle Daddy DA turning a blind eye to their antics, Greenlee/Erica feuding, and the adorable Erica/Reggie stepmom/son interaction, they are such a fun soap family now. Much better than the days when it was really just Erica and Bianca, with Jack and Kendall only occasionally being included.

ETA: Mystic0, well, we'll know for sure today. I'm swearing off the PBP and will actually watch live this time, which means swearing off the board once 10am rolls around here. LOL It does seem to point to Bianca as I've been saying all along--I really do think she shot Michael in order to protect Kendall, and I'm wondering if part of the reason for the cover-up is because Kendall's worried that #1, the police might not believe it wasn't straight-out murder, and #2, if Michael really drank down that castrating potion of David's, he wouldn't have been physically able to rape Kendall, which helps erode the justification defense further.

Bianca still not realizing right off she's the killer would also explain why Kendall's trial is proceeding. I mean, I know when Bianca does realize the truth she and Kendall will doubtless have an argument about whether Bianca should come forward, and Kendall might win the day with the "you're pregnant" reasoning, but I'm not sure that it would be enough to stop Bianca, especially if she killed Michael in defense of herself/her sister. We've already seen that she's willing to risk herself and the baby to keep Kendall out of jail. Kendall could probably talk Bianca into at least waiting for the jury verdict first. But then there's Greenlee finding proof that Kendall's not preggers...which could lead to a big courtroom explosion by Bianca if she's sitting there seeing her sister's entire defense go up in smoke. I might be wrong, but I don't think the trial will get as far as closing arguments.
Mystic0
I forgot these:

Both Jackson and Erica will learn of Bianca’s aborted abortion.

Only, Erica won’t react well at all.

Bianca, as well as Kendall, better watch out for Erica’s next move.

That last one! Ooooooooooh, I wonder what the diva does? Hmmmm.


Good luck avoiding the boards today, Black Knight. I'd fold like a cheap tent, of course. ;)
Black Knight
Oh brother. Sounds like the whole "Erica tries to be supportive" thing may just be La Kane's scam while she works some other angle. Bianca, run. Run away. Run fast. Take your girlf--er, sister with you and go enjoy raising your daughter together on some nice tropical island. Erica isn't worth it. And you'll be saving Kendall from Frankenbrow too.

Mystic0, it will be doubly hard because my workload today is very light. But I am going home for a long lunch and AMC watching, so at least I don't have to stick it out until tonight.
CKD
I won't spoiler tag this since it's speculation: even if Michael had injested the castration formula, that would not preclude Kendall - or Bianca - from using a justifiable homicide defense because both of them were ignorant of those particulars before the murder, not to mention that chemical castration does not do away with clear and present danger. In any case, it's a moot point because Kendall is not using that as her defense strategey and neither would Bianca were she to be tried for the murder. It's much more likely she'd use a temporary insanity defense. Yawn.

And I am still hoping against hope that Bianca is not the killer because that would be so atrociously boring and predicable. How much cooler would it be if Myrtle had done it? "You raped Bianca on my couch? I'll blow you away on yours."
Black Knight
Whereas I like it because Michael raped her, so she should get the satisfaction of knocking the Assicle off. If some tangentially-related or tertiary character did it, I don't care. It's only emotionally satisfying for me if one of the women Michael really hurt--Bianca, Erica, Kendall or Lena--is the killer. Anyone else? I'd say feh.

And I don't think AMC's made it all that predictable. Her name's definitely come up in internet speculation all over, but it hasn't been the most widely-held theory either over the past months, either.

ETA: If Myrtle had done it, it'd be out of character for her to let Kendall go to trial. And Bianca would be drowning Myrtle in the Pine Valley ocean for letting Kendall twist in the wind...
Mystic0
Ok, guys, who put the acid in my water? BoogieFever!Lena didn't actually happen, right? Right???
CKD
The fact that, to this point, TPTB and internet speculation have stayed away from pointing the finger in that direction doen's mean that Bianca is not a predicable suspect - and she is to me. Of course, the fact that I detest vigilantism plays a part in that and the last thing I want is an eye for an eye scenario; that would bother me immensely, so I hope the killer is a "tertiary" player: the more tertiary, the better.

My first thought was that David's castration formula somehow put the Assicle in a coma-like state and that he survived both the shooting and the freezing. However, it is just as possible (and I hope that this is the case) that we were being offered a glimpse into someone's nightmare.
