Kumara, my favorite whippersnapper,
	Didn't NBC sponser some contest where you were spotted
Betty White in the NBC soap. She appeared in all three soaps. 
The person who spotted her won a trip to Hollywood. 
	I hope this helps.

Hi, Judi -

I do think it *appears* to be inappropriate but it is by faaaaaar
the most interesting relationship between two people on the show in
my book.  I just can't wait to see what will happen next.  They are
both (Sabatino and Sorel) sooooo good at what they do.  I'm always
sitting there watching them and just wondering if there's really 
something else going on or not...are they just teasing everyone?  I
love it.

Ya know, I got the feeling that he was really trying to make her apologize
to Carport but, did she really apologize?  I really didn't get the feeling
that she did.  Granted she went through the motions but, I really liked her
stubbornness (sp).  It was almost as if she was saying to Larry that I'll do
it because you told me to but, I'm not gonna really do it.  Of course now
yesterday, when she was trying to obtain information from Carport, did anyone
happen to notice that she really *did* seem to apologize?  It was almost like
her saying "OK, Last time I apologized because Larry wanted me to so I did it
half-*ssed, this time *I* want something, so I'm really gonna turn on the
ol' stuff to get my question answered.

	Some of you fellow AMCers have already commented on Charlie,
but I wanted to put in my two cents.  When he first arrived in Pine
Valley, I truly couldn't get past those teeth.  They were so
distracting that I wasn't focusing at all on his acting.  But
familiarity breeds....well familiarity.  Now I'm getting quite
comfortable with Lawford's portrayal of Charlie.  He's relaxed before
the camera, has an impish humor, and delivers the goods, even when
given some deadly lines.  For example, his lecture to Haley on
virginity would have been excruciating in the hands of a less seasoned
actor.  He handled this chore with finesse (perhaps those
Kennedy/Lawford genes working overtime?)  I hope they give him some
storylines that take advantage of his (dare I say Tad-ish) skills.
Considering the wholesale exodus of cast members rumored to take place
this fall, he just might get the chance at a frontburner storyline.

Well, first off, I wouldn't bring either home to mother.

Hi, all!  This is probably going to be one of the last times I post for
awhile--finals are tomorrow, and then I'm leaving campus until September
6th.  While I'm gone, I plan to lay in the sun, eat junk food, and read
all of the trashy romance novels I can get my hands on. :-P

Anyway, here are my insightful (NOT!!!) comments on the show:

Just what is Scott's connection with MeowMeow and why does he want to
keep it a secret?  I have a couple of ideas, judging from his behavior
on Tuesday's show.  First, it could have been something illicit/illegal--
because of his reaction when MeowMeow said she would tell people about it,
etc.  Second, what if he worked for MMs dad (Sir Albert?) and did something
(or maybe not) that he shouldn't have?  She did make a big point about him
"Not having worked a day in his life"--it seemed overexaggerated to me.
Any other ideas?

Next:  Evan's busted!  Well, not yet...Since Court is coming back, he'll
probably be on his best behavior.  (what a slimy little sh*t, excuse my
language)  I don't think that Anus would tell (maybe I'm giving him too
much credit), but you know that she's eventually going to find out what
happened and throw a major hissy fit.  Then, of course, she will rush right
back into Anus's arms, which we all knew would happen eventually anyway.
(Maybe if they get back together he won't spend so much time being a jerk
to his sister.)

Last, but most certainly not least: Ding dong, the witch is dead, which
old witch, the wicked witch...Oh, I mean Tess is outtathere.  Maybe not
yet, but I could have cheered when DuhHutch told her that he needed to
"think about things" (or whatever he said) yesterday.  Tease's reaction
(accusing him of sleeping with RoseHand) was also important I think, because
he'll remember how accusing she was and not want to go back to her.

About Rosanna: I hope she's not going to take off in a couple of weeks,
like she said yesterday.  They've spent the whole summer getting her and
DuhHutch closer...it doesn't make sense.

Side note:  I just read in SPW that the song that Rita Coolidge and Les
Greenwood sang last week "Heart Don't Fail Me Now" is being released as a
single and will also be out on her new album ("Love Songs") which is due
out in September.  The articl also mentioned a possibility of using scenes
of Hutch/Tease and Hutch/RoseHand in the video.

Oops, I have three minutes to get to class...

Hasta la vista!

Excellent points dude.  I do miss his character as there are very few younger
male characters that I like on DOOL.  It is nice to have someone to associate

I was standing there in the shower this morning, half awake, wondering to
myself what makes a show a soap vs a drama.

In my younger days, I would only call something a soap if it were a M-F
series, shown in the afternoon, ensemble cast, drama based TV show.

Since Dallas and Dynasty, it SEEMS as if shows which: have an ensemble
cast, do not focus on one subset of characters, have plot lines which,
for the most part, continue from one week to the next and don't get
resolved right away are considered soaps.

Is there other criteria that I am missing?  For instance, let's take a few.

Title		Ensemble	Focused		Timeline Continuity

Desired 	Yes		No		Yes

HomeFront	Yes		No		To some degree
Knott's Landing	Yes		No		Yes

Opposite of a soap...

Murphy Brown	Yes		Yes		Seldom
Murder She Wrote No		Yes		No
Blossom		No		Yes		Not really

Northern Exp.  Yes		Yes		Seldom


Any other prime time shows that would fit the 3 categories but not
be considered soaps?  How about any shows considered soaps but which break
