Bianca and Marissa Get it On - SOD Article

Bianca is thrown - in a good way- when her new girlfriend, Marissa, tells her that she wants to spend the night. “She’s totally caught off guard by Marissa’s self-assuredness,” shares Christina Bennett Lind (Bianca). “Bianca is surprised that Marissa is so ready for it, so quickly. More than anything, she wants to make sure that Marissa is okay with it every step of the way.”

Marissa is not the first former heterosexual to fall into bed with Bianca, noted Lind. “Bianca’s not unfamiliar with people who aren’t sure, and Marissa is anything but not sure. It’s happening so fast and she is totally on board. I think it takes a really strong person to come out and see themselves differently, so quickly. I think Bianca really respects her.”

Sarah Glendening (Marissa) says, “I think Marissa is the kind of person who, once she makes a decision, she’s all in. And she absolutely made the decision to be with Bianca. So, for her, it’s only logical that they would take it to the next level.” Echoes Lind, “It’s a natural progression of a relationship, which is what I love about it. It’s very real.”

Lind is delighted that fans have cottoned to the Bianca/Marissa pairing. “It’s so positive,” she says of the reaction she’s received. “It’s been amazing. I don’t know what I was expecting, but what Sarah and I were really hoping to do when we started this is just be as real, as human, as we could be. It’s most exciting to me that the fans seem to be picking up on that part of this. I appreciate them noticing that, because we worked hard on that.”

After the ladies’ passion-filled evening, Marissa assures Bianca that she’s happy about what transpired. But the week is not without its turmoil; with JR’s drinking still an issue, he and Marissa resume their battle for custody of AJ.

12 Days of Christmas (Day 1): For the next twelve days I'll be posting my annual Christmas-related picture or item of a Dynasty/The Colbys cast or crew member to celebrate the season.

First up, a present to Miles from Monica from the December 2, 1986, issue of Soap Opera Digest. It was included in a special section on gift ideas for soap characters from the people who knew them best.

If someone can explain to me a second reason* why Fantasy Sports Teams are any different than Rare-pair ships, I will be shook.

*The first reason is gambling, and I’ll grant them that.

But seriously, all of Fandom is 1 to 1 parallel to any other hobby.

Sometimes I feel silly for being a whole ass grown-up still obsessing over fictional characters - like I should have outgrown hyperfixations by now. But then I remember that my grandma had a subscription to Soap Opera Digest and I mean. At least I don't have to wait for my fan fiction to come in the mail.

I loved the scenes with Kevin, Mac and Felicia. Glad they happened, glad they got well deserved recognition.

I still don't get why people wanna be mad about these two female characters who survived being stabbed by a lightsaber...because somehow it's...unrealistic...or bad writing? (Because no one in real life has ever survived something that should have killed them, I guess.)

I'm sure no one in Star Wars has ever survived anything crazier than being stabbed by a lightsaber!!

...........

...........

............

Being cut in half...

Being dismembered and then catching on fire...

Surviving an explosion and finding his way back to the GAR...

Surviving an explosion only to be experimented on by the enemy...

Being eaten by a sarlacc monster and surviving the digestive process...

Being tossed down a reactor shaft...

Star Wars is basically a space fantasy soap opera. Of course people are going to survive certain death. I'm not sure why this is a surprise to anyone or why it should cause so much anger.
