I haven't been posting much about my soaps but holy shit, I love Greenlee/David and Annie/JR like burning.



I swear to god, if they use this whole thing with David causing Erica's plane crash in the mountains of West Virginia to break up Greenlee and David only to put Greens back with Ryan I will revolt. No more Ryan with the women I love on the show. I admit, I was behind him for awhile because Zach was annoying the shit out of me but I'm sick of Ryan being so pompous and trying to make the most interesting women on the show downright boring with his bullshit posturing on morality. Being with Ryan always sucks all the fun out of them.

I rather have Kendall and Greenlee with men who accept them how they are. A little bit unstable, a lot brilliant, totally sexy, and all with the scheming and wacky plans. Guys like Zach (back in his good days), Ethan, David, Leo, Jake, and JR. Although JR totally belongs with Annie right now but I always wanted him with Kendall. Every time they're with Ryan they always end up in shit because he just can't love them for who they are and it sucks.

Please, Greenlee and Kendall, stay far from Ryan. I like Ryan okay by himself but not with those two. Hell, I used to find Annie about as interesting as a boiled carrot but then she got away from Ryan, went crazy, and is now my third most favorite female character on the show currently. Just after Erica and Greenlee. Now she's got this hate!sex thing going on with JR that is hilarious and frankly pretty fucking hot and I loveeee them. Annie, you're so great.

But Greenlee is my favorite thing on the show. Mostly because of her epic bitterness at what happened to her and everything that went on while she was injured. I'm not sure why I love Greenlee being so bitter. Wait, I know why. It's because I've always wanted, no, fuck that, craved Bianca to become bitter after getting jerked over so many times over the years by people who claimed to love her. But she never did or if she did it was so brief it seemed like a dream. Bianca forgives all. That's why she's the unofficial lesbian Saint of Pine Valley, Pennsylvania.

Also! Greenlee had one of the best back from the dead :::gasp!::: moments ever on soaps. Check it out.



I have to admit, as much as I don't want Ryan and Greenlee together anymore, I do like how he trembled when he saw her. I also love Rebecca's big brown eyes of betrayal and fierceness. Oh yeah, I adore how soap fans have memories like elephants and we're all like, David and Greens is the best, Ryan sucks, but bring back Leo! lol. He's Greenlee's true love. Seriously though? Bring back Leo. Recast him with awesomesauce like you did for Kendall and everyone will be super happy, for sure.

Here's another reason why David and Greenlee rock as a couple. They scheme together! This is super adorable. I really want Greenlee to fall in love with David already. He's already head over heels for her and if she fell for him they could be the most cute and devious couple ever.



This scene also explains why Bianca comes back. Erica disappears after Greenlee sets her up for stealing from Bianca's charity set up in Mimo's name. I'm not sure if her plane crash is going to come out or not. I am sure they'll have mountain man Caleb come back into town with Erica which... blerh. Just put her with Jack again. Although the interwebs are theorizing Caleb will turn out to be Ross Chandler which would be interesting, I suppose. The town won't be the same with Adam and Palmer off the screen because of David Canary's retirement and James Mitchell's death. Bringing back Ross played by an awesome actor like Michael Nouri would do a lot for the show.

I haven't been watching lately but yeah Greenlee/David is totally the shit! BTW, where is Kendall? I read a while back that Zach was leaving the show because he didn't want to move to LA but then they were both on and supposedly headed back to Pine Valley. So what, did their boat sink or something?

Alicia is coming back sometime this summer permanently. The show has confirmed this but there's no official date yet. Thorsten isn't coming with since he's married to Susan Haskell, who plays Marty on OLTL, and doesn't want to work so far away from his wife and kids. I'm not too bummed about Zach not following with Kendall, to tell the truth. As long as Kendall doesn't hook back up with Ryan again.

I'm really looking forward to Alicia's return to see her act with Rebecca and to see if Christina Bennett Lind, who is the Bianca recast, can manage to maintain a fraction of the fabulous chemistry Eden had with Alicia.

Word, I love Greenlee and David!! I've always been a big Dr. David fan and it's awesome to see him truly in love with someone and not just evilly scheming (he's scheming with good intentions now!).

I can't wait to find out what Nu-Bianca is like. Wondering if you followed Eden Riegel to Y&R?
Tuesday, June 8th, 2010 03:24 am (UTC)
I've been watching Y&R sporadically since Liz Hendrickson went over there and more often since Eden moved. It's hard for me to get into it since I don't know the background as well as I do with AMC and OLTL which are my die hard soaps. I do love both of them on the show though.

Dr. David is so in love with Greenlee. I remember getting super pissed off when he had scenes with Ryan and Ryan was all smug about how David is super in love with Greens. Saying it was pathetic and Greens would never love him back. Grrr. I just want Greenlee to be in love with David already so they can be happy and scheming and adorable together.

Damn, I was hoping that they wouldn't recast Binks. Eden is made of win! I can't get into Y&R either and since there hasn't been any new webisodes of Imaginary Bitches, I'm in serious BAM withdrawls.

And yeah, Ryan so needs to be alone (or dead) totally hate his whole, 'Once you go Lavery, you never go back' vibe.

I think with Eden being on Y&R a recasting was needed or else we might not see Bianca at all. I do wish they had held off a bit before recasting but I understand it. I've decided to take a wait and see approach towards Christina Bennett Lind. She's got big shoes to fill and she deserves to be given an honest chance. To me, how she interacts with the big people in Bianca's life, and her on screen chemistry with Susan Lucci, Alicia Minshew, Rebecca Budig, and Walt Willey will be the true test. Plus she's got to give Binks that little... subtle snark, you know? Not just make her full of niceness because Bianca does have a bite.

I adore your Kinks icon. I'm right there with you on the Leo recast. Josh has moved on and I can't see him coming back. Recast him, already. Say that Anna hid him away or something wacky.

I was so happy when Rebecca came back. No one else can play Greenlee like her. :D

It's the bench of love. lol. They were so gay back in the 2003-2004 storyline. I strangely miss those years, just for Kinks.

Rebecca is Greenlee, I dislike anyone else attempting to play her after the last recasting disaster. I'm trying to stay nuetral and optimistic about Christina Bennett Lind as Bianca. The real test for me will be when Alicia returns sometime this summer and if Christina can maintain the same chemistry Eden did with her.

Rumor has it they're trying to lure Tamara back which would fill me with epic squee if they somehow succeeded. I have severe doubts though.

For reals.... :) But, If there was ever a couple I didn't even think about but totally rocks, it'd be David/Greenlee. The scheming, the deviousness--it's all pure win. The fact that it brings Bianca back? All the better. Even if, you know, it's not Eden.
