Members edgeofnik Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 Also the major pimping of Ravi is inexplicable. Are we really to believe that this CEO who has lusted for Ashley and asked her to dinner would be so consistently rude to her? Not a chance. Forcing RAsh is futile. Get me CAsh instead. DG/ED really worked well together before the trade to DAYS killed it. Plus it raises all sorts of drama with B&S! AND the Abbott/Barber ties. Other than Tessa, who intriguing, and Reed, who has a boatload of ties and is defined with his music, the other newbies are extremely bland and too many of them: Juliet, Scott, Ravi, Jordan, The Mean Girls. That's 8(!) in less than 4 months. Surely seeing Chilly and the Bella reveal, which writes itself, would have been worth far more than these screenwasters.

Members GregNYC Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 He reminds me of Professor Adrian, who was on when SS was Associate Head Writer. Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 Adrienne had purpose. The younger set had several college students. Four or five. He was their professor. Plus he pushed that horrid reliquary story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 OK. So the latest 'real Newmans turn on Victor' is merely a short-arc to send EB on his break - presumably to promote his book. Forgive and forget when he returns - like the wretched Jolin reunion. BTW - What a bizarre interview on CBS This Morning. EB handled it well, but the questions were not at all what I would've expected and far too short.

Members Fevuh Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 I've mentioned it before but it's also so weird how over the years his accent has gotten heavier and heavier. From that clip they showed - from the early 80's, he had an accent but it's nothing like it is now. I thought he was doing it as part of the character, but his accent during the interview was far heavier - so it's it's not part of the character....it's just gotten much heavier over the years.

Members YRfan23 Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 That interview turned awkward the moment they made that "Scrooge" joke, and Braeden didnt play along...he didn't say anything but you could tell he didn't want to be there.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 He was pretty much last on that episode and maybe didn't appreciate having to wait until the end, probably knowing he'd be rushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 Yeah, at least he kept his cool...though I've never really seen him get impatient in interviews anyways. (maybe some of his Emmy Legends one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 The show needs a continuity editor: Ashley telling Tracishe regretted blowing off Ravi, but he had fun with his college friends. Um, didn't Ashley join them for a drink after she walked out on the 'phone guy'? Just weird. And why make Ashley a hypocrite by doing the EXACT SAME thing to Traci! Nikki/Tessa scenes were surprisingly good - those actually felt honest. And yeah to Philly! Boo to writers for making Victoria so hostile to her sister. However, when Victor does something to Abby, it will be Victoria's heart that is broken for Victor's machinations towards another sibling she hates. Gosh, it would work so much better if Victoria's revenge on Victor was HELPING Abby to gain control of NE. For a character Sally clearly wants to showcase, she has done nothing but make Victoria even more unlikable, if that's possible - the bad attitude towards Reed, Billy and Abby - terrible and all could've been written in a positive way and still reach the same result.

Members piperisthenewsookie Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 Nikki and Tessa had the best scene the show's had in months AFAIC. Of course I haven't been watching so I might have missed something. The woman that plays Tessa is excellent, very relaxed and real and she and Nikki have a good chemistry. That and JM has dyed his hair dark is about all I noticed today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 Who do you think Tessa is modeled after? A character from one of the UK soaps or someone from Mal or Sally's life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted April 18, 2017 Members Share Posted April 18, 2017 Yeah, except they could've put together an Abbott breakfast. We haven't seen that since Sally's first day - so much for that promising start. It's always great to see BM, but using her to push RAsh was far beneath her and the character's value to the show.
