regarding her rumored off-screen b**chy-ness:

i didn't see her on the dennis miller show, but understand she totally
dissed him--i tend to put this instance down to the fact that he was
totally incompetent as a talk show host--never at ease, didn't get good
interviews out of the guests, and not funny.  you can't base an entire
talk show on one recurring sketch on SNL.  on other talk shows i've seen
her on she seemed pleasant enough.

however, in a TV Guide interview early this year, she went on and on about
her 
'responsibility' to her fans, like for instance, she would 'never' smoke
on screen, because that would set a bad example (right), then she went on
to give another example of how she fights the tptb when she thinks a 
story line might be damaging or set a bad example: they wanted brenda to
get obsessed about her weight and diet.  shannon refused. i think that was
the right thing to do, because will she isn't exactly anarexic, she's no
pudge bomb either.  but the reason she gave is 'i'm the skinniets person
on the show'!!!???? when i read that, i went 'what?'.  i mean, has she looked
at geni garth, and especially tori spelling lately?  both of them are thinner
for their heights than shannon is. maybe they weigh more, but their taller.
tori is positively skin and bones!!! 

in my opinion this just kind of reflects shannon
(oops) shannon's self absorption.  how could anyone spend a couple years
working with michael landon and cop such an attitude as she seems to have?
maybe just the 'instant' succes has gone to head...  who knows.

Hi Trish and friends! I am sorry no I do not have that article anymore.
Sorry! What I remember is that you said Rosa Nevins (ex-Cecily) has
as you say a "debut album" with some guy (her husband?). Is there any
such thing as "albums" anymore? Wouldn't it be "debut CD"? Does anyone
know, can you buy a "record album" anymore? (I hate to sound silly but
I don't know!); I wouldn't even go to a music store and ask! Anyway,
what I suggest is if anyone is seriously interested in trying to get
hold of this "debut album", I would just go to a music store and ask
for a recent recording of Rosa Nevins. I am sure they could look it up.
I would be interested to know if anyone finds out whether this is
something good...

I thought they were supposed to be bringing her onto the show to pair up with
Shane and I thought their scenes together were pretty good.  I think some of
her scenes with Vivian have been okay, too.  Overall, though, I'd have to
agree with you ... I'm not that thrilled with what they've done with her.
First she's supposed to be a hotshot lawyer and we're led to believe there's
some reason for her agressiveness.  Now all she seems to want is to be Mrs.
Lawrence Allamain ... or maybe part of a vaudeville act.  As for her clothing,
I, too, find it odd that a supposedly prestigious attorney would wear
bare-shouldered and bare-backed clothing when she's working.

>DaCobb's reaction:  ZZZZZZZZzzzz.z.....

When you first talked about Lisanne's seduction technique, it cracked me up.  
I'd really never noticed until you mentioned it.  Now I can't forget it.

Well, I guess Kenny never got a clue after all.  As many have pointed out, this
was the high point for Days ratings in 1992.  Besides, considering the way Ick
was acting at the time (mega whiney mode), Switzerland would have seemed pretty
appealing to me, had I been in John's shoes...

Not to mention the number of quality characters and the talented acters who

I have three questions:

1) Will Jack and Jenn REALLY get two whole days a week?

2) Will Boink and Coitus REALLY be limited to only three days a week?

3) What about Tom, Alice, Julie, Jo, Victor, and Caroline?  (I'd like to
   include Molly, Tanner, Marcus, and Lisanne in this question, but I already
   know that they're history...  :(  )
   
Lessee, we know that Jo will get 30 seconds per week...


Y'know, Corday is kinda like Quayle... the more I hear him talk, the more I am
convinced that he has absolutely no idea what the hell he's doing.

  It's understandable, Pat.  It was kind of a boring day.  We had a lot
  of Rafe being a jerk with Lilly and planning on being Ty because Ty
  got sick and wasn't going to be able to make the big meeting with a
  future distributor of Gina jeans.  We had Aurora and Sawyer running
  around Boston.  We had Lionel trying to make Gina jealous.  There
  was Sophia all over Ken while Barbie/Andie looked on.  Gina spilled
  the beans about CC wanting her to get Ken out of town and Sophia
  overheard and got pissed and decided that was reason enough to marry
  Ken.  Oh and Ken hit Barbie/Andie which is reason to dislike him more
  than we all do already.  Let's see what else, oh yeah, Micah told McCAbe
  that the kids were in Florida to throw him off the track and Reese
  heard that and got mad at Micah and then Micah showed up at the cabin
  and the kids called and Jodie asked them if they were in Florida and
  they said no and then Micah and Reese shook hands.
  Did I miss anything?

Well, obviously it now looks like Nikki will foolishly try to pass her
baby off as Victor's now that they are having sex again.  I know the thought
is crossing her mind.  How pathetic.  Do you think she could do something
so selfish?  If she really doesn't want to have an abortion, why doesn't
she have the baby and give it to Jack?  I'm sure he would be thrilled, and
he has Mamie who would probably love it.  That would solve Victor's
problem, because I'm sure he wouldn't want to be saddled with Jack's kid.
Does she think that she would still have to be involved with the child if
she gave it to Jack?  If she does try to pass it off as Victor's, I will
be really disgusted (as I usually am with this storyline).  And why is it
that they must always keep all their problems to themselves?  It's not as
if she got pregnant on purpose, it's not as if she was being unfaithful
to anyone.  It happened, and she should let the other principals in her
life help to make her decision.

And while I'm at it, why does every single show lately end with Nikki,
Nikki and Victor kissing, Nikki crying, Nikki playing the piano,
Nikki crying again (she cries more than anyone on the entire show), etc.

Just a few beefs for this Friday morning.

How about a new daytime emmy category:
Best performance by a four legged actor or actress.

I must agree about keeping Winstone and dumping the so-called
college crowd, Rafe, Lisa and Rich.  Elaine and Lilly can be
good if they have something to do.  I must admit I have 3
dogs of my own and I always talked to them like they are
human.  I did hear somewhere that the actor who plays McGabe is a big
animal lover and has 2 dogs of his own. He said that his
first paycheck from SB will be spent on them.  One needs a
cateract operation.  This guys alright in my book.  I am
always spending money on my 3 "pooches".
