Am I the only one who finds this annoying/unrealistic?  Carly said to Bo,
"Tomorrow I will be Mrs. Bo Brady."  Not Carly Brady or Carly Manning-Brady.
She's a doctor with an established practice for crying out loud! Do the
professional women on soap opera's even consider the options, or are 
we supposed to think the "Mrs. John Doe" thing is romantic.  I remember the
same thing with Diana Colville, an otherwise independent woman who said "I
don't want to go away for a honeymoon.  I just want to concentrate on being
Mrs. Roman Brady.  I know I am one of a fairly small population who has
entirely kept my name, but my colleagues who have changed their names still
don't go in for the Mrs. thing.  Opinions?

  That's true, but still a steam room and a sauna are two
  different things.  Ever try sitting in a steam room and
  breathing at the same time?  It's a major undertaking.
  Though, either place will make the well-built soap actor
  look sweaty.

  He's trying to be a gentleman in her time of emotional
  torment and need?  :-)  It's pretty obvious that she
  wants to get something going between the two of them.  She
  should just make the first move, and I'm sure no one will
  have to twist his arm.

Dear Homefront fans, 

     I am also a dedicated Homefront watcher.  I never            
miss an episode.  I can hardly believe that ABC put the show 
"on the shelf", does this mean there is any hope of Homefront
coming back on the air since they (ABC) didn't say it was canceled? 

                 
     My fiance claims he heard that Homefront supposedly 
was renewed for three more years with ABC.  Is this true?
And if so, how can ABC put it on the shelf for some second
rate show--no offense to Matlock fans out there, I just really
want Homefront to come back on.  I thought the show was doing well 
with viewer ratings up.  

     I am writing to the show itself the address was recently
listed on the network.  However, I am waiting to find out
the address of ABC in order to write them for a final plea
to put Homefront back on the air.  I will try to find out
ABC's address, but if someone out there finds it out or
knows it please post it or mail it to me.  Also if anyone has
any insight to the questions I have or comments--please
post it or mail me.

                      Thanks,  Heather C.

I can't believe you are actually talking about the first Brian.  The actor,
Greg, was my sister's best friend's boyfriend.  He was a very sweet and down
to earth kind of guy.  He's been in a few commercials, and believe it or not,
was beat out by Luke Perry for the part of Dylan on BH 90210.  It was kind of
freaky for us to see him on AMC.  BTW, I also agree that this storyline would
not have worked with him AT ALL!!!!

Our family tradition has always been the "day after Thanksgiving/New
Year's day" thing, but this is the first year my parents aren't
going to have any "children" at home over the holidays (my baby
sister got married a little while ago).  My seven-year-old son asked
Grandma where her tree was this year -- he seemed concerned that she
didn't have one.  She told him that since there weren't any kids
around her house this year (excluding Grandpa, of course), it was just 
too much trouble to put up a Christmas tree, and she wasn't going to 
do it.  Later, my son came over and sat in my lap and started crying
just a little bit (he's an extremely sensitive little guy) -- after
much coaxing from me, he admitted he was concerned that Grandma and
Grandpa weren't going to be able to HAVE Christmas this year because
they didn't HAVE a tree because they didn't HAVE any kids.  He then
very solemnly asked if he could go spend Christmas with Grandma and
Grandpa so they'd have a kid -- and could therefore have a tree, and
therefore have Christmas.  He very matter-of-factly reminded me that
my husband and I would still have his five-year-old sister, so it
wouldn't be like WE wouldn't have any children for Christmas...

Kids are amazing, aren't they?

I don't think anyone has anything against RED hair 
it's just that they made the whole cast the same shade
of strwberry blonde!!!
We had the same reaction when Tom's hair went dark black!

Now the whole cast will probably switch to the new red! (-:

I never got that feeling.  Bo said something about having the wedding
