It was so good to have Eden mention Bianca's true love. Did we see a glimmer of hope on today's show? Bianca starting to think that Michael might have a hold on Lena? Time will tell! It's good their taking their time with this, not just having Binx do a 180 overnight. Anticipation can be sooo much fun!

[Jennpurr]

I didn't see today's episode, but I've heard that there was some good, Binx/Mags stuff! Hee... especially the line of the day, which is in my sig.



I so have to watch Soapnet this weekend so I can catch up on this weeks episodes. Ooooh... and Edmund and Maria are back together!!! Makes me happy.

"Tell me the truth and I will give you your pants." Bianca to Maggie: All My Children

I watched today's episode too. The Erica/Binx/Kendall stuff was good, the rest, especially Henry and Maggie, was as boring as hell..Isn't it ironic and great that of all the new couples they've put together recently, only Bianca and Lena have caught fire..So much so that they leave the others eating their smoke..

After seeing Maggie today, I really hope they don't decide to ever go the Maggie/ Binx route.. I think that would be a big step back. I like Maggie but Bianca's relationship with Lena just puts her on a much more mature level. That was painfully obvious today..IMO

Binks was so butch today, it was so cute

I completely agree there with you kendhall, Binks like got reduced to a teenager again and I don't really want that for binks at this point. She's a woman and honestly I think that's the only way daytime will accept a lesbian relationship.



OH and yes brian binky was so butch. I am kind of thinking that she wants a piece of him too for touching her lena And I see she's beginning to see the light yay!

[ScullyWillowXena]

Hoping not to sound too superficial, but that shirt Eden was wearing today really showcased her rack. Wow

[Jennpurr]

Hee... superficial or not... you're right. Eden has a very nice body! She's gorgeous, sexy, and voluptuous all in one.

"Tell me the truth and I'll give you your pants back." Bianca to Maggie: All My Children

[laura1959]

Bianca has moved into the mature woman catagory. Watching her with Maggie did seem like a step backward. I'm ready for Bianca to tell Lena that she loves her too!

[molsongrrrl]

i agree bianca paired with maggie would be a step backwards -- she is much more mature with lena!



there is a good transcript of a radio interview show here:



pub104.ezboard.com/fedenr...=378.topic



check it out ... good stuff ....

How did Bianca get the nickname "Binks?" I was just wondering 'cause I'm just starting to tape AMC after seeing Bianca and Lena onscreen together a few times. Whew! They are very good together.

[molsongrrrl]

i think leo used to call her that ...



personally i like greenlee's nickname better - lesbianca. that really cracks me up .... (though i guess that probably just means i am easily amused)

No LAB today. Just Erica making Chris' death all about her. Kendall was good too. Yay, Aidan to the rescue. Damn Michael needs to go and rot in hell. I hate him.





The previews showed Lena, hee.





Erica: You preyed on my daughter Bianca! She trusted you!



Lena: No, Erica, I lahv Bianca...



And then Erica hauls off and slaps her right across the face.





Sigh, the things we do for lahv.

[xita]

oh awesome dialogue Kathy, could not get better than that. Lesbians on soaps sure is fun! I lahv it!

[molsongrrrl]

i think susan lucci must have it in her contract that at least once a month she gets to slap someone!

[Warduke]

Another boring episode, but it was fun to see Michael's face when he saw Aidan.



The preview...damn! poor Lena, but lahv will keep her going

[gspiggott]

According to the new Soap Opera Digest next week is chock full of Lena,lahv and Mama Kundera ,which should be a great improvement from that hulking bore Carlos and whiny Henry .

[Warduke]

Oh good news, I am so sick and tired of Carlos and Henry.



They are sucking the life right out of the show.



But more Lena and lahv, now that's the way to go

Lil' Trevor : Always the life of the party.

[Kendahl897]

Oh, please give us more details..PLEASE.. What's supposed to happen with Lena and Bianca?

[gspiggott]

Mama Kundera pleads the cause of lahv to Binky, Boyd tells Lena she deserves a second chance and Binky overhears Lena telling Erica she lahvs her daughter. Way better than singing Carlos.

[Kendahl897]

THANK YOU , THANK YOU , THANK YOU...

Ooh, next week is shaping up to be really good. This week has been pretty boring, but I also realize that the writers had to rewrite alot of stuff after they signed Olga to a ontract. Thsi is the calm before the romantic storm...



Edited to add: Yeah, I was curious what side of the fence Mama Kunderas would come down on concerning her daughter's sexuality. Nice to see it's on the side of love...

Edited by: Kendahl897 at: 5/29/03 8:03:48 pm

[xita]

thanks so much gspiggott, I love your little early scoops.



Mama Kundera is getting involved yay! That really amuses me. I can see Lena crying on momma's shoulder over her binky hee. How cute.

[Warduke]

Thanks for the info gspiggott.



So it's mama that goes to Binks and then she overhears Lena professing her lahv for her to Erica. This is so good, a million times better than all the crap we got this week with HAM and Carlos

Spoilers/rumors ahead. preceed with caution

Anyone who visits TWOP probably heard about this already. Supposedly the big story line that the new head writer has planned is Bianca being raped ( Im thinking most likely by Micheal). This rumor has been around for awhile but it seems to be leaning more towards truth if you believe what they are saying over on the other board. So make of this what you will.

[Kendahl897]

It's important to note that this is an unverified rumor that some of the other boards are freaking out about even though it has yet to be confirmed.

[molsongrrrl]

interesting column from mimi torchin on soap net -- addresses a bit of the rape rumor (which has not been confirmed in anyway and yet everyone is freaking out ...)





Love It/Hate It!



News & Views for May 30, 2003



I'm not exactly sure what it is about soap operas that elicits such a passionate response in its fans - that's a discussion for another column - but the fact remains that almost no one who is really "into" soaps is wishy/washy about them. I suppose there are certain storylines and characters a viewer can be indifferent to or conflicted about, but the more frequent responses are loyalty, personal involvement, and adoration - or the flip side of the coin, loathing! Although, as a journalist, I try to maintain an objective distance from the industry I cover, I'm also a viewer and can't help but become involved. Just like any soap fan, I have stories and characters that I love and those that I, well, yes, hate. Strong words, but this genre does bring out inordinately strong emotions. I thought I'd share some of my own hits and misses with you this week. Feel free to share yours with me on the SOAPnet general board.

A storyline I absolutely love is the blossoming mother/daughter relationship between AMC's Erica and Kendall. In spite of all the wrong-headed things Kendall has done to get Erica's attention, Alicia Minshew is so sympathetic and vulnerable in the role that you can't help but root for her to receive the love she so desperately longs for from her mother. For some reason - probably because as a loving mother herself she can relate so well - Susan Lucci does her best work when playing the good mother. She and Minshew have exceptionally good chemistry, and their tentative but sincere moves toward rapprochement have been touching. It's a welcome payoff to years of storyline groundwork. Although I hate the overuse of rape or attempted rape and other forms of violence against women on soaps, in this case it's a fitting irony that Erica and the daughter conceived from a rape would be brought together by each of them saving the other from the same fate. Their bonding began when they worked together to bring down the man, Michael Cambias, who seduced and used an unwitting Kendall to try to take over Erica's company. Cambias, a ne'er-do-well to the bone, propelled by his rage at being beaten at his own game and publicly humiliated in the bargain, was the would-be rapist. He's a nasty piece of work, and is well, if repugnantly, played by William de Vry. I have a real love/hate feeling about Michael: hate the character, love the skill of his portrayer.



Speaking of All My Children and the subject of rape, there's a persistent rumor all over the Internet that Bianca, Erica's favorite daughter, is going to be the victim of a sexual assault. A word to the wise (writers, that means you!): Don't go there. I haven't seen one positive comment about this potential storyline. Enough already with the rapes and assaults against women. Instead, let Bianca and Lena get back together (love it). Of course the honeymoon won't last forever, but please allow Bianca have more than two consecutive days of unconstrained happiness. Eden Riegel and Olga Sosnovska (Bianca and Lena) have played this groundbreaking lesbian romance pitch perfect, and the writing has been sensitive and involving. Don't blow it now by having Bianca be raped. It's too disturbing - and is this what we really want on our soaps? Not me. I hate it! Make love, not rape.

Make love, not rape





AMEN!!

[molsongrrrl]

AMEN to that too!!!!

[xita]

Don't really want to think about that yet, bleh, so instead I will think of good things like the kane slap! Fun today!

[Warduke]

Even though it is just a rumor right now, I can see it happening. Look at what they're doing with Michael, first with Kendall, now Erica...who's left and what would hurt Erica the most?



Well if this is what happens, I'm won't be watching it and I will be done with AMC.
