All My Children

[Ghoulish Delight]

Wait, Bianca grew up to be a lesbian?!

AMC is my mom's one and only soap opera. She records it religiously. I'm pretty sure it's why we had a VCR really really early when my parents are usually very late technology adopters. Accidentally preventing it from recording was the 8th deadly sin. When we helped her set up her new TiVo, AMC was the first thing set to record, and she literally giggled with glee.

So I grew up watching it by proxy, but lost touch once I went off to college. This last weekend, though, staying at my parent's place, my mom made sure to catch me up on most things (though she failed to mention the Bianca's gone lez!) Her take on Zarf is that she thinks the characters too flamboyant/caricature-ish to be taken seriously. S/he wasn't in the episode that was on while we were there, so I haven't seen him myself.

I just couldn't believe all those actors are still on the show. And when did Tad/Ted become a sausage?

Bianca's gay?!
