HunterNet's 10 year anniversary

Revolution: The final part of a special message

May 18th, 2009:

This site is 10 years old today! I can't believe how much my little baby has grown. Happy Birthday HunterNet (Hunter Tylo on the Net)!

Following on from the three sections mentioned below, the final part of my 10th anniversary message about this site is available here. After a bit of discussion about Hunter's popularity, the final part of my message thanks some of the key people that helped this site to become what it is today, plus another ring-in or two I like as well that I'll thank :)

Visitors can talk about their experiences here, among other related topics, over the years in the blog section where a blog post will be available today.

Reload: The second part of a special message

May 14th, 2009:

Following on from the two sections mentioned below, the second part of my 10th anniversary message about this site is available here. It looks back at how this site started, what I have learnt about the fan community and there is a photo (a bit further down the page there) for Hunter's haters and critics to look at. More soon.

Rewind: The first part of a special message

May 11th, 2009:

Following on from an introduction just below, the first part of my 10th anniversary message about this site is available here. It looks back at 1990, a "What if?" scenario for you to consider and thanks Brad Bell and the late Bill Bell. More soon.

HunterNet's 10 year anniversary

Introduction to a special message to come

May 1st, 2009:

Ten years ago this month (specifically the 18th), this web site was launched for the benefit of Hunter Tylo's fans. It has undoubtedly become the world's most popular unoffical fan site about her. It offers the world's largest online Hunter Tylo photo gallery, as well as video clips, information, my opinions and other original content that I have written over the years (like the biography), plus a whole lot more. I don't mean to brag but I am certainly very proud of what I have built here since 1999. But I could not have done it without the help of Hunter Tylo's fans and others and the inspiration I've always drawn from Hunter Tylo herself.

Now, here comes the usual "overrating" of Hunter part :) HunterNet is devoted to a woman that I described last year, in my birthday message in her forum, as the greatest there ever was, is and will be for many years to come (it was a bit of a tough year for her in some ways and I couldn't help saying that). I think back over the time since the middle of last year when I said that and I remember what the media and public has put her through and how she has handled it with such dignity. I think back over that time about her acting work and how incredibly brilliant her work has been, and over the years in general since I became a fan of her in 1990. I think of all the reasons why I have always admired her and all the reasons why I have become so fond of her. Hunter Tylo is a woman that blows me away!

I will acknowledge that I have always been a bit over the top about all these reasons why I've always liked Hunter Tylo (especially her looks). There's always going to be female celebrities that have at least one guy running a fan site about them and making positive statements; nothing unusual there. But I believe now that I was truly a lot more correct in my description of Hunter last year, as the greatest, than I even knew back then.

I don't care if people say I'm just going a bit overboard in making such comments. It is what I believe based largely on what we have all seen in recent times, as well as what I know of the story of Hunter's life so far (as I've documented here over the last decade). I know other fans have stood by her and admire her as much as I do, if not more so. Perhaps there are a few other people out there that think even more highly of her than I do? I am quite sure there is and so I have nothing to be embarrassed about with my positive descriptions of her. I am a very proud fan today and I am definitely not afraid to shout it from every mountain top on the planet! If Hunter herself even doesn't happen to like just how much of a fan I can be and how proud I am then tough luck, because it's the way I feel :)

So, with that in mind, I will have some comments to make here throughout this 10th anniversary month. There will be some messages of thanks to a lot of people that have contributed to this site in some way over the years. There will also be a look back at a small part of the history of this site. I will talk a bit about what I have learnt about the public and Hunter's fan community in my time as the Webmaster of this site. And, yes, I will "worship" (just a tiny bit) the one truly cool and great lady that I have always admired as a person and looked up to, and whom thoroughly deserves all the praise she gets from me and other fans, whether she thinks she deserves it or not :) So stick around over the coming weeks and watch for my anniversary message to be published here this month, if you are interested in all that.

HT and KKL share a laugh

A B&B bloopers reel

April 30th, 2009:

A B&B bloopers video was just released earlier this week on YouTube. It shows Hunter and KKL having a laugh on the set. Other scenes with other stars are also in the short clip. You can watch it below.

HT's mother, HT's critics, a few photos, poll closes

A multi-part update covering several topics

NB: The forum has a special board for messages to HT's mother. Members of HT's official forum can also mention their support in my topic thread there if they like.

Part two: April 18, 2009:

A little compassion wouldn't hurt right about now - the media and Hunter Tylo's haters and critics this year.

Have people forgotten about compassion?

In part one of this update (below), I eluded to the fact that Hunter's mother is having some health problems. Given what is going on with her, plus the fact that Mike Tylo would've been 21 in the next week - and given how poorly the media and public has treated Hunter and her beau, Corey, since late last year when many people first started to hear about Hunter's mother's ill-health - I'd be willing to bet Hunter is not exactly on cloud nine at the moment. And you can read more of my thoughts about Hunter's haters (including the "lisp comment") and the media in relation to this in either this forum topic or this blog post.

Part one: April 18, 2009:

In this multi-part update, I would like to cover several topics including Hunter's mother, Hunter's critics, the recent poll here and some photos of HT from B&B this week (she looked awesome, according to myself and other fans in a B&B forum!) Let us start with the photos and poll and then HT's mother. I would then like to comment, in part two, on the Hunter haters and general critics but will do that in the blog area over the next day or so (and will post just above about that at the time).

Photos and new YouTube deal for B&B

If you would like to see some screen caps of Hunter on B&B this last week, please click here for the photo album featuring these. You tell me? Is that not the most gorgeous face ever? I know a lot of people, including myself, believe that B&B does not always do her beauty much justice at the best of times, but this last week's episodes have offered scenes in which she looks really good in the natural lighting. This is why I love beach photos of HT or other outdoors photos of her; the lighting brings out the beauty of her staggeringly stunning eyes!

For people in countries in which they may not have seen all that much of Hunter and those eyes in recent years, if B&B is not currently airing there, I have some good news. A small group of Hollywood studios have struck a deal with YouTube to offer free TV episodes and movies online. CBS is one company in the agreement and this means that B&B will be airing on YouTube in markets not currently served. Obviously, geo-blocking will occur for that channel but those in selected countries will see full episodes and extra content. You will see how truly gorgeous Hunter has become if you haven't seen much of her in recent years. You will also see what an excellent actress she has become, too. Cool, huh?

Poll

The poll that has been running here for a while is now closed. The result (posted on the poll page) is that most B&B viewers do want to see "Ridge" and "Taylor" get back together. I actually do not myself wish to see this, because I'd rather see "Taylor" hook up with "Bill" at some stage. However, I am incredibly patient at the best of times and can wait a while.

A message to Hunter's mother, JoAnne

I heard late last year that Hunter's mother, JoAnne, was having health problems. I was not aware of what was involved until I got a shock earlier this week when HT herself posted a message to her Facebook friends about her mother's health. I will not go into it here, even though the information has been posted in other sites since then and will probably be mentioned in the media over the next month around the world. But I do want to take the opportunity to acknowledge a lady I have always meant to acknowledge a lot more on this site than I ever have.

She is a lady that I will always be eternally grateful to for giving birth to and raising a daughter who has since become a truly beautiful woman (Hunter). The lady I speak of is, of course, JoAnne. I would like to take this long overdue opportunity to humbly and respectfully acknowledge JoAnne for all that she has done over the years to raise her family to become such fine citizens of this world since they ventured out on their own. She can be very proud of her personal and family achievements in her life so far. She is an inspiration and if Hunter is anything to go by she has done a supreme job in raising a daughter when HT was younger that has grown to become a classy and inspiring lady - one who also happens to be the world's most beautiful lady, I believe - and who is going to argue with me :)

Obviously, Hunter has grown to be a truly beautiful, classy, inspiring and wise lady in her own right, but I'll bet that her mother's advice and wisdom over the years has been a good guide. Thank you, JoAnne, for everything, from the bottom of my heart! You will always eternally have my admiration and deepest and greatest respect! In your time of need for some prayers now, please be assured that Hunter's extended family - her loyal and loving fans - are thinking of you and praying for you. Peace be with you!

Much love and respect from all of us fans of your daughter.

xoxo
Lyndon

NB: The forum has a special board for HT's mother. The public can post there if they like.

Part two: The Hunter haters

This will be a special blog article to be posted sometime later this weekend. I will comment on how upset, hurt, frustrated and angered I have been this week, after what HT posted, when I think back over what has transpired this year with the media and public negativity about HT. My comments will not be pretty so I need more time to think it over and prepare this properly before publishing it all :)
