Rachel Spotting!

I think Rachel is definitely out. The actress playing her is now on the new FX series, "Sons of Anarchy," playing a biker chick-turned-surgeon. She has quite a nice tramp-stamp tattoo that Don might have enjoyed!.

Rachel just needs to bring her stilettos back into Don's life to mess with his head! Personally, I found those 2 to have the sexiest chemistry on the show!!

Rachel's gone like Elvis. It's time we let her go.

Hmmm... Last season she did a few episodes of Nip/Tuck (although totally unrecognizable under the facial burn mask) so it is possible... Look up her credits and you'll see she's been on a lot of shows.

The timing for filming of episodes and any part she has in an episode in either series is the critical aspect. It's not like she's playing the Katy Siegal (sp?) role.

And then it depends on if the SOA series gets renewed.

Storyline: Tilden turns out to be gay/impotent and is hiding it from everyone. Sal or the Belle Jolie PR man outs him to Don (okay, that's unlikely in the extreme). Rachel needs some RELIEF from real pain in the a** (it's not her fault!)

Alt/Joint Storyline: Papa Menken dies and the new agency he brought on board to replace S-C has the Menken's sucking bilge water despite using a revised S-C plan.

But... let's face it. Despite the terrific chemistry, the relationship would never work. Totally different social worlds.

No way in hell would I want a classy dame like Rachel married to slutty, yet sexy, Don! Now, them in an affair despite their marriages would be OK. But definitely not them in a marriage together! Don's too much of a 'ho to be Rachel's hubby!

In any case, I miss the hell outta Rachel and Don's interactions! HOT!

I find it ironic that Daddy sent Rachael away, fired SC and got her married off to Katz most likely another Jew. Rachael called Don on wanting to run away but in reality it was her that did the running away, from Don.

Thank's the greeting, 60's child!! I think Don's two pack a day cigarette habit along with his five drink minimum is due to Rachel being gone. As I always say..."That's Amore!"

They did have beautiful chemistry. The "yes please" scene one of the sexiest. Poor Don would need a round-the-clock team of psychiatrists before he could sustain a relationship with someone like Rachel. Rachel has her s**t together. She gone. visan, I know you'll disagree but I've seen great chemistry between Don and Betty, not since season one, though. Don and Bobbie scare me, like I'm watching feral cats in heat. Oh where oh where... or who oh who will Don do next?

Glamara: Oh my God, you're totally right on all fronts. Feral cats and teams of psychiatrists, indeed!

I'm a hopeless Don/Rachel fan, and every time I see that damn SOA commercial, I want to hurl my shoe at the TV. I know that those two could never have a successful marriage, but their on-the-side lovin' was HOT! Maybe the two shows should do a cross-over - Rachel can come back in full biker chick regalia and SHE can tie Don to the bed. Hmmmm.

Hanna, I just pictured the scene and how hilarious it would be! I think she should put a cigarette out on his chest, too...really rough him up.

Glamara: There might a whip too....bad boys always need a spanking. And when they're done, Don can put on some ass-less chaps and they can ride off into the sunset, ridin' that big hog! Whew! I wonder where that came from...
