Okay, I didn’t want to do it. I wanted to punish ABC for all of eternity and the fact that Dirty Sexy Money, Pushing Daisies, and Eli Stone, aka all of the shows that had worse ratings than Women’s Murder Club but that they kept instead of Women’s Murder Club, have been canceled because their ratings have gotten even worse, hasn’t quite appeased me. Don’t get me wrong. I feel terrible for the cast and crew of these shows, but ABC fucked up and it’s nice to see that fact coming to light in a rather big way. It’s also kind of touching that the show that they were publicly creaming over, Life on Mars, isn’t meeting their wildest expectations either. In fact, it’s not even meeting their most subdued expectations.
Translation, they would be better off with Women’s Murder Club on the air than any of these shows. Oops! Of course, they would have fucked that up too – they spent a lot of time toward the end there demonstrating what a nightmare they could turn it into – so in a way, I guess I’m glad that it was canceled before they could do their irreversible damage.
Fast forward to now, a time in which Riley is trying very hard not to watch anything on ABC, not that difficult really since I watch exactly three shows on network television and none of them are on ABC. As far as I can tell, they don’t have anything in the catalog worth watching.
But pixie sticks and cowbells! Not only is Eden Riegel back on All My Children – I cannot tell you how much I adore this woman – her character, Bianca, finally has a gorgeous girlfriend who isn’t wishy-washy. They are volcano hot together, and they’ve spent about a quarter of the time that they’ve been on the show together being physically demonstrative, i.e. making out. Now, for those of you who don’t know Bianca’s story, just know that she has gotten more action in the past three weeks than she’s had in her combined twenty-some odd years, at least as far as we got to see. And it’s good. It’s really, really good. So for those of you who haven’t gotten in on it yet, get in on it. Yes, it’s a soap opera. It goes out of its way to be cheesy as all hell . But when you’ve got two women with chemistry and hottiness all over them, you ignore the cheese.
Sexiness calls you. See a sneak preview below.
