Taking Chances...

  • Zach takes a chance on Greenlee's sewing skills.
  • Adam and Tad take a chance on togetherness.
  • Ava takes a chance on a still drunk (but very honest) J.R.
  • Richie and Babe take a chance on Blandie's cooking.
Babe and Richie are getting, uh, closer, I guess. I certainly couldn't tell by their body language, could you? What do you think of their chemistry? I dunno, folks. Personally, I'm not really feeling it. Help me out with your feelings, here.

Ashley, I'm not feeling Babe and Richie either. They have ZERO chemistry. IMHO the Babe character should have been taken off the canvas instead of a recast. When Alexa Havens left, she was not in the middle of a big story. NuBabe has no trailer park in her, she is just another generic blonde... yawn...

Gurrrrl, I'm feeling you on not feeling Babe/Richie (Bichie?). I think it's because I'm not feeling NuBabe. Nothing against the new kid; I just find her kind of ... vanilla. Some folks on other AMC boards don't have much love for Alexa Havens as an actress, but I quite liked her. I agree with the first poster - they shouldn't have recast. Babe just got her GED ... they could have sent her off to college to hang out with Reggie! Some speculate that they kept the Babe character 'cos writing her off would separate J.R. from his son and there's no way JarJar would go for that. But DANG, it's not like Li'l A is giving the Gettysburg Address on a daily basis! Most of the time, he's not even WITH his mama. The writers could have fed Babe a couple of those "special" peanut butter pancakes, then just written Li'l A as one of those soap kids who's always at school, at a play date, taking a nap or baking cookies with the help. Problem solved!

Previous poster says maybe they kept Babe because of Lil A. Perhaps, but heckfire, Babe wrote the book on babynapping (for dummies). She could've taken Lil A and run for the hills and TPTB would have had two less problems on their hands. No Babe would be better than NuBabe. And a bonus - no more comatose Lil A.

Go Helio! And Marie, what WERE you thinking with that Bride of Chucky dance!

I saw "Livia"/Tanya Pinkens in the movie "Enchanted". She was great! Coincidence that it is a Disney (ABC parent company) movie?

Yes...Enchanted is part of the ABC/Disney family...did you catch JR about 2 weeks ago when he mentioned that he wanted to take Babe and Lil A on a date to see it? Shameless!

Hi Ashley,

I actually taped and watched the Thanksgiving episode not knowing that my fellow Canadian Celine Dion would be on. Who knew that Canadians are the number one featured entertainment on American Thanksgiving?

In Pine Valley ...


On New Beginnings ...


I actually liked Celine and her new song which is a miracle since I don't usually appreciate her or her nasally music. I loved seeing Ruth and Opal. If only Opal opened up a new Glamorama.
You mentioned Sassy Pam being back. Is she going to have a storyline outside of being Erica's workplace foil? Is she going to be there to comfort Jack when he and Ms Kane break up? Now that would be some interesting television. Jungle Fever Hits Pine Valley and Brooke returns to write a feature story! I heard a rumour that AMC was trying to get Darnell Williams and Debbie Morgan back as Jessie and Angie. That would require some interesting writing since he's supposed to be dead. If they did pull it off, I'd be back watching the show in a flash. I loved those characters. They are a supercouple like Ryannie could only dream to be a pale (yup I said pale) imitation of.
Was it just me or are they filming differently now? Both exterior and interior shots seemed to be of superior quality. And no it wasn't just the new actor playing Derek Frye.
Great Job Ash carrying the whole show all by your little old self!

I loved your comments this week on HISTORY. That is what I miss the most. How about the fact that Greenlee is down a hole once again, yet there has yet to be any mention of the time she fell into that place when she was looking for Ryan/talking to Leo and the time she was in the mineshaft with Lily and Kendall. I hate that they do that...Greenlee should be freaking out from PTSD!!!
