okay... I can't stay silent anymore... Why on earth are the makeup people letting her go on air like that?

Elana - I know. It's not looking so good, is it? ::)Personally I think TIIC are trying to make Alexis look older and dowdier to make the age and sexiness factor between her and Sam more apparent. So, when Ric and Sam do, um, the name that shall not be spoken, there will possibly be a bit of sympahthy for Ric because Alexis looks like a skunk dressed in bag lady clothes and Sam looks like a hot little office clerk in skin-tight skirts and long, flowing hair. I'm really glad they don't think their viewers are shallow

She has been looking a tad skunk-like lately with her new highlights. But if Sam and Ric get together, who can Alexis be put with? Not Sonny again!

Yeah they definitly have Alexis looking OLD. Ric looks dumb being married to her, which I guess plays into the Ric/Sam thing... It's unnecessary, Alexis supposedly (I still think there's a twist here) when she was a teenager. She doesn't have to look dowdy to pass as Sam's mother.

Minkie - That's the whole point, I think. Alexis still looked great until they (TIIC) started thinking about the whole Ric and Sam thing. Now they want to justify their decision ( ??) by making Alexis seem not only more judgmental and controlling, but also dowdy and sexless. Okay, but as a woman the same age as Alexis, I find this "comparison shopping" thing insulting. And unneccesary. Ric and Sam can hook up (bleck) but they can still let Alexis be smart, sexy and gorgeous. Let Ric just be his usual sleezy self (which, actually I kind of like. But then, I also like Coleman. Okay sue me. ) But NOT at the expense of Alexis losing her feminitity or intellegence. And down-playing any sexiness she has ever shown. These guys writing the show have a very warped sense of justifying their "lust" for certain characters. It's just too obvious. And I hate obvious, unless I'm at work and I have to solve a major problem. THEN I want obvious. Okay, rant over. But I hate this blatant disrespect of women over a certain age. And that's what this is.

I don't think she's losing her intelligence. They aren't really saying she's dumb, but that she's so busy she's not noticing the vibe between Ric and Sam (which IMO, there's very little...I'm not surprised Alexis doesn't notice). But still, it's annoying. They didn't do this when he had that affair with Reese. Which reminds me, how many affairs has it been then for Ric? LOL

You mean the winner of the first "I wanna be a Soap star"? He was killed off. LOL. He played a glorified extra and then died. They did squat with him.
