I just show up to cast my vote for Carole and the numbers pop up Carole 1 Myrna 4 and that's my 1 vote for her..man this is gonna be a tough match for Carole, I can see that now!
Just made it three in a row for Lombard after spotting Loy four. Team Carole has begun to fight!
Now we're talking! Go Team Carole!
Argh, that was a tough round for me! Barbara losing, Lauren Bacall losing over in the '40s bracket... I has a sad now.
But on to the new...wow, Lombard vs. Loy. You guys aren't making the choices any easier, are you? I'm choosing Rogers over Dunne, but the returning champion clearly has a lot of fans, so I'm not holding out much hope for my Ginger.
...ok...Irene is great, but...Ginger's automatic for me across the board, right? Hey...it MAY come down to Ginger vs Carole...well, I'm "all in" for VKM, obviously, and I know where VP will fall as well...
Great stuff here, MM!
KIG!
