Okay, how are you guys feeling about Dixie? I hate that she caused JR so much pain. I know she supposedly has reasons, and I'm hoping they are good ones, but I just don't get how she couldn't at least have let JR know that she was alive. As a mother, I don't see what reasons could be good enough.

I don't like Dixie. I really never did, actually. But now, I find my Dixie hate justified . I really hate though, that they brought Cady (who I DO like) back without any thought to her storyline. It's so obvious that the writers don't even have a clue as to what her "death" was all about. I know there will eventually be a reason. But as in so many cases in these storylines, I won't care by then. And since I didn't like her before, I don't see that I'll like her now. The ONLY thing I like about her now is that her hair looks worse than mine

Never really liked her all that much... And I dislike Cady because she's a stuck up diva. I hate that they brought her back and despise the complete lack of any vague justification for her 4 year absence

I don't hate her. I don't know why because I probably should but I don't. I don't like her either, she's somewhere in the middle. Or maybe I just don't care. LOL.
The thing is, I don't think we're supposed to like this version of Dixie. Cady wanted it this way so...I guess she got what she asked for. No one is really liking her.

I have always been a fan and although I am not over the top about how her story is going, I have to admit that it is at least one of very few storylines I'm actually watching. I don't know if they are waiting for May sweeps or what, but I do feel they need to r reveal (at least to US) what her motives were for staying away.

It was the only storyline I was watching, but I grew bored with it and the others ones piss me off so much I couldn't stand it anymore. *sigh*
They dragged this out far too long, just to time it with sweeps. I hate that soaps do that. They sacrifice good storytelling for ratings with crap like this, and AMC is the most obvious of the bunch.

Because if they wrote things any faster, then they are forced to come up with new ideas to fill the space. And that's too difficult.

I liked Dixie when she was on the soap 4 years ago, but I am not sure how I feel about her now. I don't know how much more she can reveal about her past, or how long it will take to do so. We already know she had the baby, and Madden put her up for adoption. So why is she still not saying why she stayed away? I feel bad for J.R. and Tad. They are both hurt by her return. Trixie, I am sure your hair is beautiful, but Cady needs to sue whomever did the hack job on her hair! Is that the look she was going for?

LOL I honestly think they made her cut it, and she immediatly decided to grow it out again! Honestly when we first saw her, and at the Ball, her hair was really short and nice. It was a bob or whatever. This is just...some in-between crap that is way too severe looking and unflattering on her.

You are right Minkie. It was pretty at the ball, as well as when she was still in Europe, when Di visited her.

i remember liking her a long time ago so at first i was excited about her coming back. she came and i was i don't like her at all. she better have a damn good reason for being gone and she better spit it out. ya know - maybe her hair would look better if they didn't wax pieces straight down. we need to say bye!!!!

Sorry - I'm still a fan. This show is known for dragging things out and I never expected this story to be any different. I agree that they need to move it along though, and maybe now that it's May they will. Until then, I'll be the one Dixie fan on the board. I'm here to represent! ;D

I don't mind Dixie at all, actually. I'm enjoying Cady. Now that Dixie isn't lurking, she's not annoying me. I like seeing her play off the different characters she's been thrown at.
