TAMARA OBSCURA II AMC SCREENCAPS & MEDIA UPDATE

Hi there. I wanted to apologize for the lack of updates, but with the water yesterday, my still feeling wonky and my mom with the flu, and computer problems plaguing me, the last couple of days have been to say the very least, hinky. I’ll be working on Friday night to get all media and caps up for you by the weekend. I’ve also got some other stuff I want to get up here so please be patient.Thanks for sticking with me. Yours, Dianne

TAMARA OBSCURA II HEADS UP

“What’s a cubit…?”What does the above have to do with anything? Plenty. Todays screencaps and media may be a little late

TAMARA OBSCURA II 01/12/2009

My apologies for not updating over the weekend. I had the post all written then for some stupid inexplicable reason, I deleted it. Dumb I know….. I’m also still feeling under the weather. This intestinal bug is just hanging on for dear life and making my life a misery. But as they say, onwards and upwards. Can I say how much I’ve loved Tamara in the last couple of days. I adored how she told Erica off. Her “ten husbands” comment had me on the floor giggling with glee. And the way Zach (Thorsten Kaye) stood up for Reese to Erica. Priceless! And today with Reese’s comment about Bianca and hotel room beds is like “Princess and the pea”. Good all around. I’m a happy camper. I’d have to say though, Tamara had me in tears. Her scenes as Reese with Gabby were just heartbreaking. And I truly have to say that Bianca was being a bit of a snoot today accusing Reese of wanting to be with Zach. I could have smacked her! I do understand Bianca’s been let down by her past relationships, but Reese isn’t one of those. She’s here to stay and that’s what makes me sad for someone like Bianca. She doesn’t see the Golden Reese (a play on the golden fleece) she has. I really do wish they’d played out Reese’s returning to Paris. To make Bianca have to do some fast apologizing. With the return of Kendall (Alicia Minshew) due this week and according to the preview (you’ll find it in the sidebar), it looks like it’s going to be a big week for the Kane/Montgomery/Slater family so any type of Reese/Bianca angst is going to take a backseat. There was a very nice letter in last week’s Soap Opera Weekly about Tamara and Eden. I’ll inlude here:PUBLIC OPINIONBravo, AMC!I am writing about hte recent storyline involving Reese and Bianca on All My Children. I am a new fan of AMC, having come aboard as a lifetime As the World Turns fan. I started watching AMC when all of my friends kept telling me a groundbreaking story was about to start, and I haven’t been able to stop watching since. I am so addicted! Not only do I absolutely love Reese and Bianca and their story, but several other storylines, as well. I want to see much more of Reese and Bianca, and watch them in a successful relationship. So far, the writers have done a brilliant and sensitive job portraying a same-sex relationship, and I can’t say enough about the actresses. Please keep Tamara Braun and Eden Riegel on the show!Tammy, via e-mailI’ll be including the link to Friday’s screencaps and media in this posting.

TAMARA OBSCURA II 01/07/2009

Behind again! Mucho sorry….. Reese: I like Erica.Greenlee: I don’t, let her rip!I loved that interchange yesterday between Reese and Greenlee. It’s so funny, I really wasn’t too thrilled with Rebecca Budig given how ABC and Brian Frons handled the whole “Real Greenlee” campaign and how Ms. Budig’s predecessor Sabine Singh was treated so unfairly in light of Rebecca’s return, but I can truly say I’m loving this alliance between Greenlee and Reese. Finally, Reese has a supporter on her side. And I love how supportive Ryan (Cameron Matthison) is being of both Reese and Bianca. I know, I know…this is Ryan The Thongman. I get it, but I love how Ryan and Greenlee are more or less helping Reese and Bianca and I loved how Ryan told Bianca not to do what she’s going to be doing in testing Reese and Zach. I personally think it’s juvenile of Bianca to do this. While I do understand her reasons for believing that Reese will take off on her or at the very least, turn straight on her, I cannot understand the reasoning for writing this story. It does a great disservice to this ‘groundbreaking’ story in terms of making it seem as if gay/les/bi people are somehow more fickle than straight people. Of course, it’s ‘soap operaish’ to do this, but come on, Bianca believing she has to set a trap for the two people she claims to love! For further background on this week, read this article: LATE BREAKING NEWS: AMCS BIANCA SETS A TRAP FOR ZACH AND REESE. I’ll include four images from yesterday and today since Tamara was wearing the same clothes and had the same hair. BTW, llike her turn as Ava on Days of our Lives, I’m loving how the All My Children clothes, hair and makeup people are doing with Tamara. I’d have to give he edge to AMC’s people because I’m loving the sophistication they’re giving to Reese. Just love it.

TAMARA OBSCURA II 01/07/2009 MAJOR UPDATE

Hello and welcome to 2009. So sorry for the lack of updates but I’ve been getting over an intestinal bug that’s kind of kept me down since before New Years. Though I’ve been trying to get the screencaps done and the clips up at OBSCURE MEDIA, that’s about all I’ve been doing. I’m hoping you had a restful holiday season and are ready for 2009. I know I am.Okay, not too much to talk about this time around. I’m so far behind that I think it would be hard to really encapsulate what’s gone on since I last updated. I think I’ll just say that I’m so glad that Zach (Thorsten Kaye) is sticking up for Reese and telling Erica (Susan Lucci) to get her nose out of Reese and Bianca’s business. I will also say that I’m so glad the writers have finally nailed down on screen what the exact nature of Reese and Zach’s relationship is. No more speculation about Reese wanting to jump Zach’s bones or Zach wanting to make out with Reese. I think the word Tamara used is platonic. Couldn’t have said it better myself. Now of course according to the previews for this week (can be found in the sidebar under “Featured Video”) there’s more speculation that Reese and Zach will ‘have it on’. All I can say is OI! Enough with the teasing. We know it’s not ever gonna happen. Tons of stuff for you in this posting. So without further adieu, I’ll get to it. One note though, I’m not going to be including the usual screencaps from the individual days. Considering how far I’m behind in posting, it’ll take up too much space. So here’s the update…. Enjoy!01/06/2009
