Random Thoughts

           Back with more observations and questions. 

           I am very troubled by what I am reading on other boards regarding David Canary and his role as Adam/Stuart on AMC. David Canary has to his credit played this dual role so well for so many years. There are rumors that Stuart is going to be killed off, and there are rumors that DC himself is actually ill. I truly hope that both are not true. Especially DC being actually ill. 

            I began thinking last night about the whole blame game going on in good old PV. It basically centers around Greenlee’s death and from there fans outward. I start by saying I have nothing against Ms. Budig. She has played the role of Greenlee very well, and I would gather she is a decent person in real life. However, if she knew she was not going to be in this for the long haul, I find her really responsible for all the bad storylines going on right now. It is because she wanted to leave that everyone else has been forced into these convoluted and poorly thought out plots. I know there has been talk about the whole Bianca/Reese storyline and how it unfolded as it did because like Ms. Budig, Ms. Riegel also was on a short-term contract. I think it is much better to not bring back a character that is going to be central to many storylines just to jazz up ratings. All it really does is add some zing for a while and leave a path of destruction when they leave abruptly. 

1. Ryan – That raspy voice of his is like nails on a chalkboard to me. Also, does everyone in PV have a hand gun? He is divorced from Annie so I do not see why he has anything to say about her treatment or criminal charges. As for being so concerned about Emma’s safety, he basically pushed her out of the penthouse door, to ride down the elevator to get to the school bus by herself? The child is only 7 years old! Then he wonders how Annie was able to get to her so easily? Also, if Annie wanted to really take Emma with her, would she have returned her home?
    

2. Kendall – I really feel bad when an actor/actress must play a storyline and act out dialogue that is so bad. Kendall is acting like a 2-year-old. Her little games with Zach are so immature. Pretending she was on the phone with Ryan. What is she 12 years old?
    

3. KWAK – Okay so when are we going to be officially told that Marissa is KWAK’s other daughter? Even their hair color is the same. Does this mean that David is her father? Why would KWAK not want to tell David? Wouldn’t she rather he fixate on Marissa than Amanda’s soon to be born?
    

4. Erica – I love her with Adam, even with no romantic storyline, just two old friends. I am glad she is trying to stay out of both her daughter’s personal lives. She was also very gracious when Reese came by to talk to her about Bianca. I like the mature version of Erica.

                    Well that’s about all for now. Have a great week.
