Well, Shaybelle, once again the ruling class monopolizes the airwaves—– There was nothing untoward with my comment. While some of us are chastized for “criticizing”? actors/actresses, ’tis perfectly fine to bash fellow-posters.
The biases are as pregnant as ever.
I have a life, mon amie—a full one at that–so…..
It doesn’t matter—-let’s leave it to the illuminati on these sites to enlighten everyone else—-we are merely peasants.
I know you love Finola—and, so do I….since AMC, but she has lost her mojo—-and her frail look accentuates the obvious change. Perhaps she has been ill? I just feel that her acrobatic actions go against her appearance. And, regardless of age ( my aunt is five years older than her husband), she and Finn do not heads turn. She’s boring. He’s boring. Together, they offer the viewer boring pie. Unfortunately, Hayden is leaving….I honestly hope Finn’s and Anna’s relationship evaporates. There is a new Quartermaine in town? I missed her introduction….you know, the girl that we saw in the pub. Who is she? Well, she’s perfect for Finn. I’m glad Violet is in his life—-cute little angel—but, he still needs a vibrant, spicy woman to ignite that je-ne-sais-quoi spark in his life.
Ciao, cara….

Great post, Shay…
Yes…I remember now —Kimberly was Stacy’ s friend on OLTL. She looked so familian, but couldn’t place her.
I don’t think I’ve ever met Ned’s daughter. I didn’t even know he had a daughter. LOL. Regardless, I like her. GH does need a pick-me up, right now—-Maxie is not Maxie anymore—-the writers have turned this once feisty girl into a mouse….all about Peter and his hair-cut…
Les Croquants? Good one—unfortunately, there aren’t enough of us—those of a similar mind-set are too timid to crush through the “veneer”, as flimsy as it may be. However, I am reminded of another force du temp in Mme Defarge, the ringleader, and the rest of the tricoteuses, bowing and kowtowing.
La Vita e’ bella, e la devi goder—Life is beautiful and must be enjoyed—
I still haven’t watched today’s episode—term papers are in– pile on my desk.
You don’t watch DAYS, but Shay, the show has skipped a year—I am soooo trying to follow it—but, I’ve skipped so many episodes, I don’t know if it’s even worth my time. So much has changed—characters killed off, others in jail, the usual fare of kidnapped babies—so dark and depressing —I feel for Fiona, my grandmother. DOOL is her favorite show—has watched since its inception. She calls me on a daily basis complaining. LOL.
Hope to talk soon, Shaybelle—Buonanotte!! ❤️

Hey, Shaybelle—-
As yourself, I’ve not had the time to truly “get into” any televion programming —–my time is better spent with my family.
Nonetheless, I still love the couple of soaps left, albeit, I don’t care for DOOL’s fantastical transformation….I’m neither into the different plots nor the eerie characters—-I want to smack Princess Gina, for one….
but, I do hope Brook Lynn ( was she born in Brookyn? LOL) isn’t merely visiting. The actress has a way about her…..I find myself waiting for her next impertinent remark. She reminds me of myself. Ha!!
Well, we can sit here and discuss politics and all its nuances until the cows come home. But, we need to realize that propaganda only works for the ignorant and the uninformed. My pet-peeve is listening to those, everywhere I turn, discuss politics when he/ she has no clue of what is and what is not—-one cannot even try to discuss politics without knowing, not only American Hustory, but also global History. Therefore, whatever food is freely given will be chewed, ingested and digested. Soooo dogmatic!!
There is no point, Shay…….Having a PhD in Education, Liberal Arts or PoliSci, is worth nothing, or so it seems—-not when Academia is going to pot, as it were. Radical socialism is very much a living, breathing sociological happening, instrumental in brainwashing youth and those who are not educated in the Constitution and basic mores. Soviet Russia comes to mind.
And, each and every one of us needs to think long and hard about this evil. Trump will not be in office forever. What then? I hope there is one democrat among them who does maintain and reaffirm what our forefathers intended. So far, there is nothing substantive on the table—-all frills and free-for-all. Right! —nothing has been done in three years because their quest is to oust this president instead of meeting the needs of the people. Plus, I don’t want Big Brother watching me, LOL.
Again, have a blessed Thanksgiving, Shay—-I don’t know anything about you, except for your beautiful, brilliant mind. However, my viscera tell me you’re married with children—on that note—bless your family!! Sempre mia amica….C.❤️
Oh, did you catch Gutfeld, last night? What a treat!!

@CeeCee….Although my response was posted, it was much abridged, so I’d just like to add from “my family” to yours, sending best wishes for a happy and healthy Thanksgiving! (Along with great appreciation for your always generous thoughts…I would use the same glowing adjectives to describe you, cara amica mia!!!) Benedica!!!

And a most belated Happy Thanksgiving and general “Happy Holidays” to you, too, Mr. Fairman! (I just saw your reply after a brief respite from the website….) As for your clarification regarding going off-topic and not sticking to the thread subject at hand, that was clearly my understanding from your last post directed to Violet and me. Quite frankly, I was never aware that it was such an important consideration prior to your reprimand, but once you apprised me, I made it a point to follow that rule, and until this particular instance, did not meander from your intended topics. To what I was referring were numerous posts down page which actually introduced both politics and British tv programming into the Anna/Finola mix…as you can tell by the time and date stamps, they occurred before either CeeCee or I made any such comments along those lines, and I repeatedly questioned why they were allowed here when you had already categorically stated to me that going off-topic was unacceptable. (Which I completely understand, as neither subject, unless specifically introduced by you, really furthers the cause of promoting daytime soap operas, which is the main focus of your website and I respect that!) My repeated queries were not so much complaints as simply wondering why it was permitted for some, but not for others…and that’s it in a nutshell. Rest assured that when you take the time out of your busy schedule to personally address any of us, it is duly noted and I do my best to adhere to your instructions. At any rate, I wanted to thank you for your kind reply, and let you know that I indeed took seriously your guidelines…I was just very confused as to why they did not equally apply to all of us. (I do believe that if you examine the timeline of this thread, you will see that I merely followed suit of other contributors who initially veered the subject matter off course…If discussion of such topics were not deemed desirable for this particular thread, then why were they permitted here in the first place? Doing so sent a “mixed message.” Enough said!) Once again, thank you for responding to my concerns, Mr. Fairman! Best wishes for a wonderful weekend and festive season!!!!!
