No, jellyfish isn't the word Sol.....he was p****-whipped

I tell you, Dixie Carter has a way of playing these big shouldered Southern broads--first on "Filthy Rich", then this, then on "Designing Women".

MAGGIE WAS A BITCH! She didn't like Arnold, she let that be known in the bed wetting episode, she only married Phil for his money. She was a bitch to him when they first met! Drummond was a sucker for love, and would have been better off staying single! I liked Mary Ann Mobley better than Dixie Carter!

Kool, you always have more guts than me
That's one reason I'm looking forward to the ABC/Mobley episodes, so I can finally see how her Maggie acted.

She wasn't as controlling as Dixie. She seemed like she got into Phil a little more than Dixie.

Maggie '84 was totally different than Maggie '85 Dixie was kinda gruff like where Mary Ann was kinder and gentler and acted as a mother you see this to be true in Willis Goes To College

I know Dixie Carter stated in interviews that she was not comfortable playing the part of a mother on TV--one reason she left DS. (and I'm sure the opportunity to work with Linda Bloodworth Thomson was more attractive on Designing Women)

Default Phillip being SPINELESS

These posts make me wish that Phillip would slap Maggie. But then, he was probably afraid that Maggie would walk out on him.

Phil kind of reminds me of myself in regards to dating-lol Seeing that he is not getting any younger he willing to accept a lot of things that he would not have if he was 20 years younger-lol So you are probably right he probably felt like if he was to do something like put maggie in her place she would leave and he knew that since this was probably his last shot at love then he was not bothered by her bosy personality
