Days of Our Lives: SHE IS MY DAUGHTER! *SLAP* SAY IT! *SLAP*

The moment I have been waiting for... Long story short, Nicole stole Sami's baby and passed her off as her. The truth is finally revealed and the Sami throws the smackdown on Nicole. Classic soap! First slap at 4:35!!! Second slap at 4:42!!! And all the while watching this I actually felt sorry for Nicole. Despite her hijinks, Nicole demonstrated some remorse about her actions throughout the last couple of months. AND she still deserved bitch-pescosas she got from Sami.

Warning: Carly Manning WILL shank a pimp!

Don't fuck with her! Carly Manning is back, bitches, and she will shank you!

One Life to Live Will Be Cancelled Next Year... WTF?!?

Straight up... THIS FUCKING SUCKS ASS! Brian Fuckhead Frons is pulling a FOX and killing the best written, produced, and performed soap opera on the air, in an effort to save All My Chickenwings. FUCK THAT NOISE! Kill AMC and leave OLTL alone! AMC is no longer bankable!

The show is an abomination. The writing is worse than the shit Chuck Crap was writing for Melrose Place. Most of the key players are likely to not relocate to L.A. So what kind of fucking show do you expect to have? This is the kind of shit that makes me wanna bite my pillow!

Fenmore's ShOCKTOBERfest!

When I was a youngin', I remember PIX/Channel 11 would devote the entire month of October to thillers, chillers, and killers! In memoriam, I will be watching one movie a day all through October. The movies will include current theatrical releases, classics, and straight to dvd. I'll blog each movie and provide a five sentence review.

Y&R: Colleen

Do not go gentle into that good night... Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

As I lay in bed watching the 9-17 episode of The Young and the Restless, I can not help but think of Dylan Thomas' Do Not Go Gently Into That Good Night. As Colleen floated in the mirky depths of the lake, her spirit floating between worlds, she was met by every character who played a significant role in her life. Each character reminisced about their connection/history and while they encouraged her to fight, they subtly said their goodbyes.


This was certainly one of those episodes that needs to be seen. The writing was rich in history, the production was movie-like and character heavy.


Colleen eventually lost the battle against the dying of the light. In what could be considered a case of cosmic irony, Colleen crossed over with the help of her father who met a similar fate nearly 6 months ago while saving another life, just as Colleen was intent in doing.
Kudos to Y&R and Tammy Sursok for an amazing episode! One which I will watch again and again in the near future.

Elizabetch, get your hand off my man's TEET!

Oh Happy Days: The Loveable Bitch Is Back!

She blamed Dr. Woo and his herbs for burying Carly alive. She stole Kate's eggs and gave birth to her son Phillip. She kicked it with both Victor and Stefano. She's BFFs with Sami Brady. She's Vivian Alamain and she's coming back!!! DAYS OF OUR LIVES IS ON CASTING FUEGO! And they're not wasting time on newbies, they are all about bringing back the classic characters we grew to love. Congratulations and welcome back, Louise Sorel! Kudos to Days!

Y&R: WTF! (Update)

I'm working on it, but I'm all caught up with Tori and Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood (Will Candi come to Stella's Burfedday Partee?!?!?!). In the meantime, enjoy the picture. Yes, I'm sure it's about the worst Photoshop job you've seen. SUCK IT!

Y&R: WTF!

I would have photoshopped this image to display them giving you the middle finger, because quite honestly that is exactly what I feel this show is giving me... WTF! I have alot to say about the state of Y&R recently, but I am too fucking tired from an almost 12-hour stint at The Beauty Depot to get into it right now.

I will just leave you with the fact that I have reached a point where I have started to download episodes of GH to wash the down the bad taste Y&R is leaving in my mouth. Some one needs to give M.A.B. a "Get it together gurl!" pill - STAT!

July 16th!

Happy Birthday to ME! John Driscoll's first airdate is set for Thursday, July 16. Driscoll will be playing Phillip Chancellor IV. As I have mentioned before, he is rumored to be paired up with Rafe, who is currently tied up in the Adam storyline. I'm wondering if the writers will dare conjure up an Adam - Phillip - Rafe 3-way. Now that's what I call daytime drama!

Save Sordid Lives!

Sordid Lives began as a play, developed into a film, and eventually morphed into a television series - all the while developing quite a cult following. It seems the show will not go on to a second season!

There has been a major grass-roots campaign started by the show's entire cast. First up, a series of videos featuring the cast. Then there's the online petition, which I have personally signed. And then there's also the Facebook page - where just about every day, a cast member posts a new picture, dressed as their character. They also encourage you to take your own picture holding up a sign to Save Sordid Lives. Done!

Let's help SAVE SORDID LIVES!

Chris Engen Speaks

Chris Engen finally spoke out via a blog post on his myspace site. Below you'll find a portion of the post...

May 26, 2009 - Tuesday 
CHRIS ENGEN - STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC

Good Day. This is the first time in my life that I address an audience so vast and varied. There are a number of heated topics that have become entwined with my recent decision to quit my job, and I feel there are a number of truths that deserve to be stated, a number of untruths that deserve to be rectified, and a few of my own ideas that, by way of circumstance, I am compelled to inject into the debate.  This is the only statement I intend to make regarding this subject. I would like first to apologize, as I feel I owe a great many of you at least that. I know that a choice like this appears weak and impulsive. Honestly, it was the last thing I ever thought I’d do - the absolute LAST thing I ever wanted.

While he does not engage in the details behind his exit, one could easily read into some of the possible catalysts for his decision. I respect his decision to exit the role, and I am also sadden by his actions - he was really making something out of the role and demonstrated great potential. 

Below is a great clip featuring Chris acting his ass off against Eric Braeden. Granted Eric chews him up and spits him out, but Chris managed to hold his own.

The Man Chris Dare Not Kiss!

Yani Gellman, who plays Rafe Torres on The Young and the Restless, is the man Chris Engen would not share an on-screen kiss with. Instead, and I'm sure there were possibly other reasons, Chris walked out of his contract role as Adam Newman. Starting June 25th, we will see Adam Jr. portrayed by Michael Muhney.

WTF!?!?!

Y'all know by now one of my guilty pleasures are soaps. The following is a little rant about some breaking news...

What is your problem, Chris?!?! You're on the highest rated daytime soap. You're cast as the son of one of the headlining characters, who is a fan favorite and veteran actor. And last but not least you're in a front-burning storyline. So you up and walkout???

Apparently a storyline driven action may be the reason for his walking out. Although there are also rumors (Chris) Engen is battling some "demons." Why is it that when a straight actor is given a gay storyline to play out, they have to battle some "demon" that conveniently enough prohibits them from fleshing out the role?

And so it begins... *Y&R SPOILER*

It's Cliffhanger Friday. Boy, does Y&R have a cliffhanger for viewers today! Below are the last two minutes of today's Y&R ep., which will leave diehard fans gasping. Based on my previous post, I'll just say this spoiler has NOTHING to do with Cricket! Big love to the country of Canada for airing Y&R episodes a day ahead.

America's Next Top Model Is...

Unfortunately, I'll be at the gloss and primer mines tonight, so I will not know the true winner until I get home. My money is on...

Wrong! Shockingly Wrong!

Paulina Porizkova has been let go from ANTM. Porizkova will make her last appearance as an ANTM judge on tonight's finale - which I will unfortunately, not be watching until tomorrow, because I will be stuck at the gloss and primer mines! I'm officially declaring Teyona the winner of Cycle 12.

May 15th on Young & Restless
