imagine Birmingham's disappointment not to get (really) cast.

she needs to be on something good, and soon. She is hilarious.

ugh.

weirdly, I thought the same thing. I guess Lily was more freaked out  by Robin's last minute "I love Ted" nonsense.

I like Darryl enough but never thought he needed to be a main character/part of the gang. His coolness in the early seasons came from his being the cool King of the Warehouse, a place where they all scoffed at the upstairs people and where he could say No to Michael ("do not touch the baler!"). His character became…

I just don't get Rashida Jones. I do understand that I am in the minority here, but (especially on P&R) i don't find her funny.

Mother's Day must have been tough for you this year. And every year.

don't insult Mona Lisa Saperstein by calling Zoe the worst.

loved beautiful, tragic, diabetic Nina and handsome doctor Cliff. My family went on a camping vacation the week they got married and there was no TV! Horrors! I missed the wedding! And it was filmed on location at some gigantic mansion, so a big money shoot.

I just remember him as an overexcited teen with a mouthful of braces, bawling his eyes out as he met his idol, Courtney Love (as portrayed by Molly Shannon). Funny stuff.

it's almost like they were going for a Soviet-era "we make glossy American tv show!" vibe.
aTROCious!

we called them All My Squids or Al My Chitlins, and OLTL was One Life to Be a Loser.

I was an ABC soaps girl, loving Maeve and Johnny Ryan (my parents, completely) and the NYC setting of Ryan's Hope and the big three — AMC, OLTL and GH.

agreed about the "Baby in Peril of the Week" repetitiveness, and to address point number 3, they missed out on all of the storylines that come from having some/most of the characters lower-middle class and occasionally broke. Everyone was jetting off everywhere with freeflowing champagne — it cuts out the drama and…

been watching the shenanigans in Pine Valley wince I was a preschooler, with my chain-smoking babysitter aunt. My mother was horrified, but I got her hooked while I was in highschool, and we enjoyed having a gossip now and then about Tad and Jesse & Angie and Erica the tiny supermodel.

I was just correcting Sonia. I, too, want that messenger coat, and a lot of Michelle's clothes. Just not the weird to-the-navel neckline pieces

yes, what was up with that 80's MTV video look? And the makeup was startling. No mascara at all?

lots of oldies this year actually. Daniel and Patricia both near 50, Stanley in his mid 40s, Richard Hallmarq…. err….

Tom and Lorenzo as the new Honeycomb Hideout?

nicely put.
