Agreed.

Disagreed.  Sydney Penney is a fantastic actress.  Doesn't anybody
remember her thias summer when Frank was still *ali ve*? She was
really amazing.  Her acting abaility hasn't decreaed, her material
has.  She does what she can do with what she's given, and what she's
given is a damned shame.  I agree that the things her character has
been given to do lately are repetitive and annoying--I was on the
verge of becoming violently ill if I had to listen to her talk about
how nobody believed in her one more time.  But I think we must
separate the character from the actor and judge them as such.

(This damned trial's been going on far too long for a TV drama.  I'm
beginning to wonder if the writers know the meaning of the word
OLD...)

>angela has me laughing outloud in the scenes she's had in the mine with ted.

Yeah.  She's been given better material.

I don't think they are setting her up to be a dingbat. Instead, this is
just her way of reacting to the whole situation. Yes she was tripping on
Friday. I guess she thinks that if she ignores the issue with Boobie and
acts like Boobie doesn't have the rights to Lucas, that then maybe the
problem will go away. It's total denial.

Now, what's gunna happen to Felicia (is she the next Lizzy Borden?)?

When Ross and the gang showed up at the Bauers, the theme from Doogie Howser

  You know what's really driving me crazy about this thing. 
Everyone keeps talking about kidnapping is a federal offense.
Is it in Hungrary - probably. My point is that we are not
dealing with a U.S. law here guys. They keep acting like
Edmund would be tried in a U.S. court. It's up to the Hungrarian
gov't if they find out what to do with Edmund. The U.S. can not
do anything to Edmund. When you are on foreign soil and you commit
a crime - you go to prison there. The only exception is when it
involves international law such a terrorism and hostage taking.
That's hardly the case here.

I have a question. Ashley likes to go on about how Niki has ruined alot of
lives because she couldn't decide who she wanted to be with. Well isn't the
reason Victor and Niki had problems was because Victor was sleeping with
Ashley. Victor was married to Niki when he bought her the cabin, which she
doesn't use anymore.  Victor was married to Niki when Ashley became prego
with his baby. So if she were to step back and take a good look, she is one
totalk about Niki ruining alot of lives.
Niki tried for years to get Ashley out of Victor's life. BUT when Victor called
Ashley jumped.
SO gives a break Ashley, you are no better then Niki.
Personally I like both charactor, but I just can't stand the way Ashley feels
she has the right to blame Niki for the mess with Victoria
If Ashley was never in the picture, Niki and Victor may still be married
I personally like Niki and Jack, as a couple. Jack cares for Niki and only has
eyes for her, unlike Victor who has slept around quite a bit.
Feel free to correct me if I am wrong about the past going on's but I was sure
Victor left Niki because of Ashley.

Okay, so I panicked and actually believed he was dead. I'm so ashamed.
Anyway, the current SOD says that Tom will soon have a secret about Hal
that he can't share with Barbara. I wonder what THAT means, hm?

By the way, a random thought. Once upon a time, many months ago, Sighva
had a dream in which Juicy was doing some nasty thing, and Juicy was
wearing this sweater or dress with a witch on the front. I thought it
was great, but it turned out to be a dream. However, sometime in the
past couple of weeks, Juicy actually wore this garment. Did anyone
else notice this? (I think it's a great statement for her to make...
hee, hee.)

Hi there:

Well someone told me that my 1st post got out (I believe her name was
Joanne - thanks).  At any rate I'm trying again because I have some ranting
to do about Friday's show.  So if you haven't seen it (11/20/92) you 
should know that this may contain SPOILERS!!!! 









I'm not sure how the rest of you feel about that show but I was really angry.
First the writers make us suffer Eleni's whining about how much she *luuuves*
A-M. Then we have to go through the "he lied to me Franky" stage.  So all
the while I'm building up this intense hatred for A-M and just when I think 
he's going to get whats coming to him, the writers pull a stunt like this!

I can't believe how they go on and on about what good cops Mallet and Harley
are.  If they're that good why would they lie to Mallet's buddy, Levey(sp) to
protect A-M from getting arrested? Puuuuhleese!!! So what if he just happened 
to be in the path of the bullet.  It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see 
that it was not a fatal wound. He only passed out because icky weasels are 
always weak on the soaps.  Now he gets off; Mallet & Harley like him again; 
and he gets to keep Miss Whiner who of course will (1) forgive him  & 
(2) fall back in love with him (actually that last one isn't so bad because 
they deserver each other). And what does Frank end up with...NOTHING! I was
so angry about this that I wrote GL a letter 

We all know that Frank will stay. I just hope they bring on some perfect/
gorgeous woman for Frank, have her and Eleni become great friends. Then 
have Eleni find out that the woman and Frank are madly in love, are 
pregant  and getting married.

Welp, I feel much better now, thanks for letting me vent.

Lisa B.
