Quote CTgremlin: Quote k-soaps: I don't agree with Maggie cheating,no one should but Erica's done it,Kendall's done it.Does that mean Jerica and Zendall should stay apart,no.We never got an explaination and Bianca didn't let Maggie go she said she might be part of her family again and they kept in touch by email.Bianca never said love with Zoe she has never had that problem with any other love interest,she said it to all the others.I don't deny she had feelings for Zoe but I don't think they were ever love.How can Zinxy fans contimue to insisit they were in love and soulmates when it wasn't said and they were never together,she called Maggie the love of her life not Zoe.As for LH she is ONLY RECURRING ON Y&R not long-term so has every chance to return to AMC. I don't care if Erica's done it, or Kendell has done it. everyone doesn't cheat in soaps. Stop trying to rationalize Maggie's action with the term "everybody's done it" The fact is that Maggie did cheat on Binks, Binks gave her the old heave ho, and that ended it. Both Erica and Kendell are man hungry idiots. Bianca may have called Maggie the love of her life, but that's ancient history. Maggie broke the bond of trust between her and Bianca, and i think their "relationship" has been so damaged, that it will never be the same again, and just because Maggie sends Bianca e-mails, doesn't mean that Bianca is simply going to forget what happened to her, take Maggie back, and everything is going to be as it was. There are consequences to Maggie's actions. The simple fact is Bianca dumped her, time to move on. ITA Gremlin! |

Quote CTgremlin: I don't care if Erica's done it, or Kendell has done it. everyone doesn't cheat in soaps. Stop trying to rationalize Maggie's action with the term "everybody's done it" Nobody is trying to rationalize Maggie's cheating. We're saying it's insane to say that's it's the "end all" for Bianca and Maggie's love story when it's not the "end all" for so many other couples, real or fictional. The fact is that Maggie did cheat on Binks, Binks gave her the old heave ho, and that ended it. If it were truly over, then she wouldn't have agreed to continue emailing Maggie. Both Erica and Kendell are man hungry idiots. No excuses for them either. Bianca may have called Maggie the love of her life, but that's ancient history. That's not ancient history. The romantic love of your life doesn't just become ancient history because you break up. Bianca told Maggie that she never fell out of love with her when she cheated. Maggie broke the bond of trust between her and Bianca, and i think their "relationship" has been so damaged, that it will never be the same again. Again, I don't see how this is the case for Bianca and Maggie when it's not the case for so many other couples. All this "only in BAM's case" stuff is silly. and just because Maggie sends Bianca e-mails, doesn't mean that Bianca is simply going to forget what happened to her, take Maggie back, and everything is going to be as it was. No one said that. Only that the writers left the door open for BAM, and that they did that for a reason. There are consequences to Maggie's actions. The simple fact is Bianca dumped her, time to move on. Bianca didn't even really dump her. She just refused to immediately go back to Maggie just because she showed up with some "I'm sorry"... It still doesn't mean that it should be time to move on for that couple or for BAM fans, when it's not "time to move on" for so many other couples after cheating or, heck, trying to kill each other. And if Bianca does move on with someone else romantically, it doesn't mean that she cannot or will not find her way back to Maggie romantically later. |

Quote k-soaps: I actually would consider a recast IF the actress had good chemistry with Eden,recasts have worked before when they have put the work in and found the right replacement. You're more open than me on the recast issue as well. Recasts haven't been done with supercouples that often, and I feel with good reason. What Bianca and Maggie's romance did, that great impact it had on the soap opera medium, they are too iconic for me to like either of them being recast. I just don't see how it would work as well, if Maggie were recast. I don't believe that the majority of BAM fans would be onbaord with that either. The reason that couple became so huge is because of the chemistry between Elizabeth Hendrickson and Eden Reigel. Plus, all their history is with those two. I just cannot see recasting Maggie being a good thing. But I admire your being open to it. |

Binks wanted nothing to do with Maggie, that's why she tucked her tail between her legs, and hopped the first plane back to Paris. That's being dumped in my book. Bianca was betrayed by Maggie, and if Maggie truly loved her, she wouldn't have cheated on her. |

Yes, Bianca has higher standards than any other character on the show. She would never cheat so why would she settle for one. With the thousands of women in this world that would love Bianca, WHY would she subject her self to Maggie again? Makes no sense. |

Quote CTgremlin: Binks wanted nothing to do with Maggie, that's why she tucked her tail between her legs, and hopped the first plane back to Paris. If she wanted nothing to do with Maggie, then she wouldn't have agreed to email her, and say that Maggie may once again be a part of her and Miranda's life. That's being dumped in my book. Then our books are different. if Maggie truly loved her, she wouldn't have cheated on her. Not true. Cheating isn't so black and white. You are definitely trying to rationalize Maggie by saying that everybody cheats, and comparing Kendell and Erica to Maggie. No one is saying that everybody cheats. And it's not rationalizing Maggie's actions at all to say that it makes no sense to state that it's the end of her relationship with Bianca when cheating is not the end for so many other couples on soap opera or in real life. That's not the definition of rationalizing someone's actions, and it's not even comparing Maggie's actions to Erica or Kendall's. It's stating the truth...of how silly it is to say, "Oooh, BAM had cheating, that's the end of BAM. Oh, but for other couples, no way. But somehow, for BAM's case, it is undoubtedly the end." You may forgive Maggie for what she did, but Binks holds herself to a higher standard that a cheating Maggie every would. Don't perceive to state what is a higher standard for people or for any BAM fans. Just because a person forgives/takes someone back who cheated on them doesn't make them any less of a person or means that their standards are lower than anyone else's. It simply means they have forgiven the person. But the question is moot simply because LH is going to another show, and I seriously doubt BAM will be back for a long time to come. And I seriously doubt how you can state that, especially when Liz is on recurring status at Y&R. If Frons were interested in bringing back BAM, he would have done it by now. Not true. There are a lot of things he's interested in, but it doesn't mean that he will make any of them happen at any given time. The bottomline is that Frons himself recognized BAM as a supercouple and informed others in the business of what huge impact this couple made on the soap opera medium, as as a lesbian couple no less. I'm sure he wants both Liz and Eden back when bringing BAM back, and he cannot just make that happen at the snap of his fingers. Right now, he is focused on other matters, like adding "racial" diversity to this show. Doesn't mean that he has no plans for BAM. The writers also decide who to bring back. And I have no doubt that any writer of AMC who does research on BAM's history would want to bring them back. The question is when. Not if. |

Quote wannazachWe need a good interesting s/l for Bianca, not another repeat, repeat, repeat... I don't believe in "once a cheater, always a cheater"... It's the case for some people, but not all. And I will never believe it to be the case for Maggie. We can certainly agree to disagree on that. |

I don't know anyone who would call Bam a super couple. If I had blinked i'd have missed them. They were boooorrrring. JMO |
Stayler![]() |
Well, that's your opinion. But they weren't boring to many people. As for who called BAM a supercouple... AfterEllen.com, The Advocate, MSN, Frons, TV Guide, several other publications...and, oh, the fans of the couple...that's who. |

You are rationalizing Maggie's cheating by saying everyone does it. In essence, you are giving Maggie a pass for breaking the bond of trust with Bianca. If Binks were smart, it would be the end. Maggie doesn't deserve an angel like Bianca. You may forgive Maggie for what she did, but Binks holds herself to a higher standard that a cheating Maggie every would. Don't perceive to state what is a higher standard for people or for any BAM fans. Just because a person forgives/takes someone back who cheated on them doesn't make them any less of a person or means that their standards are lower than anyone else's. It simply means they have forgiven the person. I'm not perceiving anything, but Bianca holds herself to a higher standard, and Maggie violated that standard.

Well, if Frons said BAM was a supercouple, then he's an idiot. BAM was far from a supercouple, plain and simple. No way in hell BAM was a supercouple. of course, Frons is presiding over a soap opera that has 2.0 and 2.1 ratings, so he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to knowing what's good for his shows. If BAM comes back, you can expect lower ratings, and perhaps cancellation. Of course the show maybe headed in that direction anyway, but if BAM is brought back, it was hasten the demise. Bottom line, BAM IS DONE!!!!! BAM a supercouple, Oh, that's a good one!!!! Thanks for the laugh. Bianca made BAM, Liz was nothing but a sidekick. End of story. I'm done and out of here. |

Quote CTgremlin: Well, if Frons said BAM was a supercouple, then he's an idiot. BAM was far from a supercouple, plain and simple. No way in hell BAM was a supercouple. of course, Frons is presiding over a soap opera that has 2.0 and 2.1 ratings, so he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to knowing what's good for his shows. Then you must have missed when I just named everyone else who called BAM a supercouple... AfterEllen.com, The Advocate, MSN, TV Guide, several other publications...all called BAM a supercouple. So, what, they're all lying? A supercouple is a couple that fascinates and intrigues its observers beyond normal expections. BAM did that and more. Their history is well documented. It cannot be denied or shrugged off. If BAM comes back, you can expect lower ratings, and perhaps cancellation. That's laughable. if BAM is brought back, it was hasten the demise. Completely laughable. Bottom line, BAM IS DONE!!!!! Says you. BAM a supercouple, Oh, that's a good one!!!! Thanks for the laugh. Oh, jeez, no one is making that up. Their history is scattered throughout their Wikipedia article. And before you say, "Wikpedia makes stuff up." Um, let me just clarify...no, they aren't allowed to make stuff up. They have links to valid sources throughout Bianca and Maggie's article proving how huge they are, and can simply be checked by going to the bottom of their article in the references section. If anyone tries to add anyting fake to their article, it will be immediately reverted. You can even google the words Bianca and Maggie, and an AfterEllen.com article on the couple will come up citing their huge and great impact on the soap opera medium. It's plain silly to even try to deny that BAM are and were a supercouple. They weren't to you, but they most certainly were/are; it's in the history of several publications. Bianca made BAM, Liz was nothing but a sidekick. End of story. No Bianca and Maggie made BAM. Two characters. Without Maggie, there would have been no BAM. And without Eden and Liz, two people, they wouldn't have been a supercouple. |
