LOL to your request. Exactly David. I see you saw where I was coming from. If Susan is on anything, I go out my way to look at it, BC I have been a Susan fan forever. But, as I have gotten older it seems Susan and Erica Kane are one in the same, the arguement I have fought with people about for year’s in her defense. I simply can’t tell them apart : ( And then, all of those ‘ ‘Thank You’s ‘ after everything someone says to her, is just too much/over abundance/ and not quite what I feel is down to earth! Because, a ‘ Thank You’ is coming almost every 30 seconds out the mouth, and it breaks up the flow of conversation and information being given. I’ve noticed it along time now, BUT in the last 6 months, I see I’m not alone when I read a media report calling Susan, ” the most ‘over polite’ person in show business”. It’s TOO much! She could barely get critiqued (like everyone else) on ‘ Dancing With the Star’s ‘ because she was so busy saying “Thank You”, during the critique!! Those overwhelming many ‘ Thank You’s ‘ have changed how I view Susan, but more like Erica Kane. Let me see Susan do something that is not associated with Vanity, Beauty, Clothes, Jewelry, having Money or ANY Erica Kane association OR men swarming all over her. Do something like the GORGEOUS Farrah Fawcett did (in her day) when she took out the vanity in The Burning Bed, and other movies and just ACTED without ALL the vanity prompts. I know Susan can look beautiful, I want to know WHAT ELSE she can do besides that??!!! Michael posted above, ” the actress who played Erica Kane for all that she is worth”, He has a great memory. That’s what Susan said when she concluded her acceptance speech for the Emmy, ” I’m going to go back to that studio on Monday and I’m going to play Erica Kane for all that she is worth!”. See, I remember her exact words, because HER acceptance speech is one of the 4 BEST I have EVER heard, and THAT acceptance speech DESERVES an Emmy! U can’t watch it without crying- you will acturally get ALL CHOKED UP before U start to cry. It is one of the BEST acceptant speeches of ALL TIME, in the top 4 in my opinion. Ok, the year she won, I feel she did better work a year or two before, and I hated the clip she presented. On AMC (when she was drinking, she won an award and had to give an acceptance speeech) and Susan playing drunk, KILLED IT. I felt she should have presented that clip for the millions to see that didn’t watch AMC but knew about Susan Lucci. I didn’t feel she had her best year when she won. I am also NOT happy that she never won again, as… Read more »

This is the year Susan SHOULD HAVE WON…… I feel it was a message to her PEERS, and those WHO ROBBED her of that award out of jealousy! She should have won the EMMY for THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never thought I’d see it again BUT looked it up on YouTube after my post, and to my surprise the entire show it on it. Watch it and see Susan, be SO MUCH MORE than Erica!

Erica gives a shocking speech when she accepts the “Media Woman of the Year” award while high on pills.

Auh you’re a sweetheart.
Thank you for seeing the issue on both sides. KEEP IN MIND, I agreeed with your position in my paragraphic long post. I just pointed out ( in contast) and what I know Susan can do, and how it would be FITTING to see her do more than Erica Kane types… and that is the reason I follow her waiting for the time it comes. She uses the same weapon (to keep the dough rolling in) they have used against her for year’s. Her beauty. What an irony. Thank’s David for having the expectation of Susan to expect more (some people dont) but for being open enough to not close the door on her. ; )

David, what do you think about Susan’s new gig, I mean the character she chose? Answer me back on the page itself, read my post.

Hi David: This is 1loveabcsoaps. Is this your message that U replied to

” No forethought and planning seems right. Oprah probably assumed OWN would be a success based on her past successes and because Discovery offered to invest. Employing her friends, without network experience, probably didn’t help either.

Oprah turned down producing soaps because she thought scripted series were too expensive to produce, but compared to what OWN has lost, etc..” Is this you?

Furthermore, Is this your message?

Hey let me know which post is your’s the first one (in paragraph form,) or the two above or ALL three. I guess its a few Davids on here, perhaps initials or even ‘made up ‘ intials should be added behind the first name for clarity. By the way, long time no hear. Let me know whom U are.

Thanks, 1loveabcsoaps.

Hey Barb: I just posted above yours.

I don’t believe crap that comes from Prospect Park nor do I think that One Life to Live will come back. ABC will never accept to release the rights to Nixon. That’s the cold hard truth.

GH and Days are falling because they are failing to give the viewers what they want. They both emphasize too much on the same characters . With GH, it’s always Sonny, Jason and Carly , while with Days it’s all about Sami, EJ, Will, Hope and Bo. GH is a dark and depressing soap, while Days stories are just plain boring, ridiculous and unoriginal.

GH and Days can bring all the veteran cast members they want. But as long as they continue to neglect their fanbases by having storylines that sucks, they will continue to decline.

Barbara….!!!!!!!!!!!!! We talking about Susan Lucci, NOT Ereka Slezak and OLTL..!
Typical Barbara, going to talk about OLTL, no matter what the subject. LOL

Thanks David.
You are a Class Act, and your know…, I always appreciate fine writing. lol

its alexa not alexis.sad part about it,I agree with everything she posted about the emmys and who should get it ,I feel ericka slezak shoud be up for one to.

@ Barbara: “the way susan lucci and ereka slezak sounded off after the canceling of the soaps I dont think,and I could be wrong ,they would want to work for abc. ”

Well I guess U were wrong about that, huh.

Plus U posted on the current Susan Lucci page: ” from what I heard abc/disney owns her ,not the other way around ,so she might as well stay with the mouse house . ” WHERE and WHEN did you hear this? Because on the February 10th Susan Lucci post, you stated U didn’t think Lucci would want to work for abc?

Thank you for the link to the video of Erica’s speech. I enjoyed Susan’s performance. I remember her hosting Saturday Night Live before she won the Emmy and she was great. I take back what I said. I will watch Susan Lucci wherever she is.

yes – i totally agree with your 11:48 am post…………………..

she is only trying to get her ratings up………..lol

1loveabcsoaps,dont get mad at me but I cant watch,I never liked her (OPRAH),and I still think its to early for bobby to be doing a interview so close to her mothers death.oprah didnt help me when my soaps were canceled so I cant help her get her ratings up,oprah did not have to put the soaps on her network ,but her voice about the cancellation of the soaps could have meant alot.I hope the problem here is fixed,did you read about trevor st.john he and ron talked.
