I’m with you, Jim. I love Olivia with Julian. I also loved her with Ned.
The only one whom I did not love her with was Sonny and that Ken doll doctor whose name suddenly escapes me.
I thought she had amazing chemistry with Johnny too

@ harry. Steven Lars! haha-ha.
Yeah, I’m so into Olivia & Julian / Olivia & Ned. Oh, yes, she was super hot with Johnny Z! Those were the days.

@jimh….We’ve already previously discussed the highly sensitive subject matter that you’ve so graciously shared here with fellow posters, and given that, I should hope that in no circumstance would you ever consider my flip, saucy quips regarding Alexis—or anyone other soap character’s quirky tendencies or annoying physical attributes—to translate into mocking the real life travails you—or anyone else with similar difficulties–have battled. On the contrary, in my last year of high school I volunteered during one of my study halls to be an assistant in a disabled students’ class…nothing major, just serving lunch, helping with lessons, and maybe providing a… Read more »

Rebecca1, where is your sense of humor…you should know by now im the Soap Jester…im only joking and not bashing…i actually liked NG since her Santa Barbara days…im not too much into her Alexis character but i blame the writing on that…lol

One more thing i was joking about Scott too but you didnt say anything about that…lol…and i love Cindy Crawford!!!

Hi jimh..I know you’re a sweetie pie and unfortunately my comment was in response to your post…but you do know that a few of our friends here have consistently made reference to Nancy Graham’s body, her age , her sexuality in relation to her age and that she should not be dpshowing her cleavage which open said…”is no longer an asset” as one ages. I find the constant reference to that offensive as a woman and as a person whi doesn’t appreciate ageism or insuts to others appearance. Something harmlessly said in jest is one thing…constantly critiquing and judging another… Read more »

Well, rebecca1, we all have different tastes and aesthetics when it comes to what constitutes beauty…or NOT! I do know that LLC has a gorgeous complexion, stunning features, luscious locks and a normally bodacious figure….she is wearing her pregnancy very well, even though it is now past the point of denying it…this storyline is obviously quite a bit behind the times….LOL. Moreover, one of the things I LOVE about Olivia is even though she is unquestionably sexy and alluring, she knows when to put it out there and when to keep it under wraps….it ceases to be special or interesting… Read more »

Thanks for the reply Rebecca1…i understand more than you know…from 4th grade to 12th grade, and beyond i had classmates and others constantly insulting me for my appearance…in school i attempted suicide it got so bad…i know im not good looking but to hear it everyday even from teachers got to be too much…i no longer really care what people think…if someone doesnt like me i say thats their problem not mine…ill change for myself but not to please and be accepted by others…me i was just joking about Alexis and Scott…they look fine to me…im disabled and use a… Read more »

On the contrary, rebecca1, I totally get what you are saying….this is THE soapbox issue for you….and as such, you disapprove of my views and commentary on the subject because it bears no semblance to yours. Fine. I can deal with the fact we don’t agree….why can’t you? You certainly don’t think that all of your own “high horse” pontificating or tsk-tsk-ing of me is going to change my mind, do you? The fact of the matter is that we have very different outlooks on many things….so what??? Just because you don’t like what I have to say doesn’t mean… Read more »

Rebecca, I was not guilty of said offense this time but I have been in the past so your admonishment should be directed toward me too. I am sure this says more about me than it does about the woman in question but I really do not want to see anyone’s, young or old, male or female, cleavage. It’s especially hard to engage with such a person in real life because your eyes automatically are drawn down there….to that great abyss of life. Maybe I see things too metaphorically but frankly, I find it distracting. I don’t feel anyone was… Read more »

Jimh…I replied to your very personal post and I thought it made it through…last I checked it went from awaiting moderation to replied…now I don’t see it. Exasperating. You choose to share very private matters about yourself and through that you paint a strong person who unfortunately has endured a lot. What we on this site are privileged to know is a vey intelligent, creative, warm person who is very much appreciated. The world is full of insensitive, hurtful people…and it’s sad that we have to be subjected to them…big hug! 🙂

Alexis and Fluke wouldve been awesome…

Nice try, Shay…but I’d venture to say there are those of us who think Alexis is gorgeous, spirited, a brilliant attorney who can give Olivia a run for her money. The difference is we can appreciate both actresses/characters and not have to resort to petty comments which insult someone’s body to do it.

Shay…I’m going to give this one more try. You don’t seem to grasp what I’ve been saying. Let me start with the unimportant. I love Olivia, too. I, too, think the character/actress is extremely attractive. I also love her as Dante’s mother, Lulu’ smother- in-law, Loved her with Johnny, with Sonny, with Julian, with Ned. THAT’S not what I posted about or have posted about in response to you in the past. And I hate to see anyone jump on the infantile, judgmental, bandwagon. Yeah, it bothers me. I am talking about the constant reference to Nancy Graham’s body which… Read more »

I have made comments such as ‘NLG’s bra deserves a best supporting actress award.’ I have also taken issue with the redundant storyline in which Alexis discovers she likes sex. Okay, okay, Alexis, we get it–you are a recovering born again virgin. Rebecca, in theory I completely agree with you. We live in an ageist society and it’s getting worse. (Check out Frances McDormand on Aging/Youtube–it will sing to you). I just don’t feel I have seen examples of ageism directed toward NLG by commentators on this forum. I am also one to pick on folks’ fashion choices like Sam’s… Read more »

Harry…you know I enjoy your comments; you crack me up! I thought your Duke of Bloomingdales was hilarious the first time you wrote it. As for fashion commentary and critique..love it, too. Part of the fun of “scrutinizing” our soap buds. What I don’t like and stand by is making fun of, insulting, ripping apart, judging, someone’s looks…be it their face, weight, height…their age…etc. while commenting on Alexis ala Nancy it wasn’t about showing cleavage…it was commented numerous times by someone that they are middle aged and her boobs are no longer an asset…and other such personal comments. These actors… Read more »

Rebecca, I think you brought up a very important issue and I think the debate which transpired between you and Shay was intelligent and thought provoking and I thought you both handled yourselves very well showing others that it’s okay to disagree. No, I guess I had not seen the comments referencing NLG’s age being a detriment to her being viewed as a sexual and attractive women. I have not seen it here anyway, but I have seen some vicious remarks on other forums, not just about her but about other actresses. I thank you for bringing this topic up… Read more »

Thank you, Harry. And you better continue crackin’…this site wouldn’t be the same if you de- cracked!

Sonny is already connected to the Jerome’s…he’s the father to one of them! His daughter Christina is also the sister of Julian’s daughter (Sam) so one more Jerome in the family just expands their interconnected families…
