While I find the soap talk hilarious and entertaining, I am strangly feeling bad for Tim's thread. Poor thread with no show.

To bring up another side topic of the thread, my friend at work has just started knitting and is like a person obsessed (like a lot of new knitters are actually - I certainly was). She is almost finished with her second scarf and is starting project 3, also just learned a new pattern last night which I am sure will be project 4. She taught herself to knit 2 weeks ago.

I miss knitting, but do not really feel like I have the time. I think I might pick up the needles just to knit, in a kind of "dig a hole....fill it up way"(Life) and then just rip it out. I guess I could do some little projects.

Isn't the matriarch of the Brady clan Caroline? Maybe Shirley Jones is her sister.

ahhh! the veil lifts. Colleen's still slutty though. Especially in light of the fact that she was a nun.

I wish researching my own geneaology was as much fun as sussing out soap families. Also, yay!knitting!

I am strangly feeling bad for Tim's thread. Poor thread with no show.

Indeed.

Caroline! Yes, I couldn't remember the name but I do like the actress. And Colleen certainly a slutty slut going straight to hell.

I need to learn to knit. Now that I am not smoking all my hands want to do it put food in my mouth. They need to be busy.

don't forget bar and grill owner. What was the name of that place? It was the boardwalk/docks as I recall.

He managed Shenanigans.

Roman and John wouldn't be related at all.

If the speculation is correct re: John's parentage, they would be cousins because John's mother, Colleen (conjecture), and Roman's father, Shawn Sr., are brother and sister (not conjecture). However Shawn Douglas and Belle are incest free because Bo's biological father is Victor.

Me too. I stopped watching when they broke up.

Jack and Jennifer got back together. Then he died. Then he wasn't dead. Then they moved to London together.

I miss Eugene and Calliope.

Me too.

Also, I miss Tim's shows. I quoted "Epiphany" in the Supernatural thread the other day. I may go watch that now.

He managed Shenanigans.

HA! Okay, I haven't watched soaps since college, but that's the name of my neighborhood bar.

Wait, I thought John was Lawrence's brother??

Right. He's an Alamain.

He managed Shenanigans.

And he was the brother of Jake Kositchek, the Salem Strangler (not to be confused with the Salem Slasher or the Salem Stalker). Jake was played by everybody's favorite guy wearing horn rimmed glasses, Jack Coleman.

He's an Alamain.

I completely forgot about that.

The only time I paid attention to DOOL was when the one actress was playing triplets -separated at birth so one was pretending to be whoever was engaged to John (I think). Was the character's name Kristen? At first you thought she was a twin sepreated at birth, but then there was another one. The deception was finally found out when, at their wedding reception, the fake Kristen's fake teeth flew out of her mouth and landed in the champagne. (At least that's how I remember it).

It was very OTT but funny.
