Though enhancement without the use of dialogue doesn't violate the board guideline re: not posting fanfic.   

The Alphabet Game has always required words that are tied to DS.  Please submit answers with specific examples if their tie-in isn't obvious, which lately has not always been the case.  If that isn't possible, then please leave it to someone else or perhaps allow the "game" to end.  Thanks!

Since no example was provided in the answer given this morning other than that "it must have been mentioned at one time or another," another word is needed.  So, next is A.

Loved Magda's pronouncement at Judith's arrival:  "Her majesty herself."

As cruel as Jenny's imprisonment in dismal rooms seemed to be, at least Judith saw to it that Beth checked on her a few times a day, brought her fresh food, and kept her clean.  Although Judith's biggest concern in institutionalizing Jenny at this point is the scandal it'll create, she admits here to taking pity on her, and considering the sad state of asylums at that time, it's looking like Edward's and Judith's first choice was the compassionate one.  And it was good to see Judith assume some familial responsibility when she acknowledged (sort of) that her brother contributed to the problem.

And just when I think Her Majesty is showing some humanity, she says to Magda, "Considering that she is your sister, I'm inclined to think there is already madness in her background."  Hee.

Just a quick moderator note to say that David Selby's appearance on TBAA is what's on topic for this thread. 

General Hospital only exists in BW kinescope for ...

As to DS, syndication was the main reason for saving ...

Yeah, that was quite a ride.

I think it was Marie's real hair. I remember reading a story MW related where sh was riding the subway once when a woman recognized her from DS. MW was surprised the woman knew who she was because on the show her hair was always teased out to the ends.

Which still raises the question (yours, actually ), did they need extra time to comb all that teasing out?  When I teased my hair back in the day (a rattail comb was my friend), I remember it taking ages to get out all the snarls. I am not going to provide photos, so don't ask! I don't think the ep was taped in reverse because Marie has said she created the pincurl bangs overnight.

And btw, I would bet money that Roger's hair was teased when he played Dirk.

Does it strike anyone else as odd that Dirk goes through the entrance to the servants quarters (which we know also goes to the kitchen) and comes back with a dagger.  Wouldn't a kitchen knife or butcher knife make more sense?  Most people don't just have daggers lying about for convenient use --

Since it's the servants quarters, maybe Dirk's room is back there too.  And I definitely think Dirk would own a dagger.  It's scary to think what else he might keep in his room.

Another interesting point here with Quentin not coming in the house.  What exactly are we to suppose he saw?  When he opened the door, did he know Jenny had a knife? Did he hear voices, or know someone was in there with her?  Did he shut the door and wait, KNOWING Judith was alone with a madwoman with a knife?

I think that seeing Jenny and not having anything for self-defense (which for cowardly Quentin means a gun) was probably enough for him to cut and run.

There's probably been a thread on this somewhere but I do get the feeling that the writers are trying to show Jenny as having multiple personalities.  The way she suddenly forgets she's met Barnabas, and her change in attitude, even in tone of voice.

But what we don't see in those changes in attitude and voice are separate and distinct personalities.  Jenny's confusion and forgetfulness (which are not the result of blackouts) and her mood swings, delusions, paranoia, withdrawal (in #745: [spoiler]Jenny didn't seem at all unhappy with her exile to the tower),[/spoiler] and in particular her hallucinations seem to me to be more in line more with schizophrenia than to dissociative identity (multiple personality) disorder.  And as I mentioned before, her view of an unintegrated "good self" and "self bad" (#719) are more likely the symptoms of a personality disorder than DID/MPD.

Barnabas sure developed a sudden skill for knowing what would motivate Jenny.  Makeup and girly things and pretty dresses.

Barnabas the sexist. 

Do you suppose that Edith knew about mad Jenny and her babies?

Taeylor, it's what I believe happened, since Sarah, above anyone else, certainly had the motivation to send her back.  But yes, more discussion about it is best left to a new topic.
