With his current co-star Chrishell Stause (Amanda). They looked great together on the red carpet. Ricky was very funny and hot, of course. During the Emmys they had a part in the special fashion segment. Their theme was James Bond, and they pulled it off perfectly. I'm glad they got that theme. Ricky was even yummier as James Bond. Oh my!
I've realized this needs to be posted too. Not updating frequently has made me forgetful.
A funny Tad and Jake moment was transcribed in Soap Opera Weekly. It's from the July 21st episode. These two are comedic magic geniuses together. I'm so glad Ricky joined the show and is playing Tad's brother! Ricky and Michael Knight are quite a pair!
Jake's baby switch storyline with Amanda, David, and Liza was the talk of AMC's message board section. I know I haven't been posting anything lately, but this is something relevant. It's Jake's current storyline.
There have been numerous Jake and Taylor articles. I only post ones concerning AMC. Both characters are in pretty popular pairings, especially Jake. He and Amanda are without a doubt the most popular couple on the show, and there have been a ton of praise for them. I don't want Jake and Taylor's other pairings hogging up the blog.
SORRY for posting this a week later. SO SORRY, everyone! Since there's been nothing to update this blog with, I've gotten use to that and it was easy to forget to update with this episode. I just remembered to update yesterday and then quickly forgot. But thank God I remembered again today, and it stuck with me.
This episode was a continuation of Tueday's show. Liza showed up, and Jake, Taylor, and Amanda had to hide baby Trevor. Very funny stuff - Tad trying to shield Liza as Jake looked around for baby things. The baby was crying, and Jake looked everywhere for the pacifier. Taylor came out and immediately found it on the fireplace mantle, giving Jake an annoyed look. Jake and Taylor got some humor together. You could spot it here and there. Amanda, Jake, and Taylor snuck out of the house with the baby to Taylor's place. They figured out how Taylor taking care of Tevor would work. Like magic, Tad showed up with baby stuff just as they were discussing what the baby needs. Taylor promised she would take excellent care of Trevor, and Tad offered to spend the night to help Taylor - to give her Baby Training Camp, as they called it. Overall, this was a hilarious episode. These four characters bring comedy to Pine Valley like no one else could. And the comedic talent between Ricky Paull Goldin & Beth Ehlers is STILL THERE. I've missed it so much.
The new Jake/Taylor episodes have begun. Yay!! Not that I really want them together anymore. I love Taylor with Tad, and Jake is fully committed to Amanda. I still enjoy Ricky & Beth in scenes together, and I know the actors miss working together. So, I'm beyond thrilled with new Jake/Taylor scenes. I wanted to cry at seeing Jake and Taylor together again since I love the actors together.
Now, in this episode Jake & Taylor weren't alone. Tad came home to find Jake & Amanda with their baby. So, now he knows Jake's plan to have Liza believe she has Amanda's baby when she really doesn't. Jake knows Amanda wants to raise the baby, and he wants that too. They've named the baby Trever after Amanda's father. Tad tells them he planned on having an empty house, and as he's explaining that, Taylor comes in. They have brunch planned. So, now Taylor's in on this baby thing too. She hears the entire plan, and altogether they form a new one. It's Taylor's idea to take care of the baby, have him "hide out" at her place. And at the end, Liza shows up at the door. Amanda, Jake, and Taylor go hide with the baby. Very cute, funny stuff!
FINALLY, some upcoming Jake & Taylor scenes! They haven't shared a scene in MONTHS! Now we've got Jake & Amanda happily together at Taylor's place with Amanda's baby. And Tad is there too. Hmm, wonder what's going on in these pictures... I'm beyond thrilled to see Jake & Taylor together again. Doesn't make sense how they haven't had any scenes together since they were friends.
The journey of Ricky Paull Goldin and Beth Ehlers on All My Children is now over since the show moved to Los Angeles and Beth was let go. This blog serves as an archive of their time from 2008 through 2009 as Jake Martin and Taylor Thompson.
