What I think is going to work IN FAVOR for the character of Dani... is that we've already seen her in such despicable conditions, acting a fool and humiliating herself... than ANYTHING above that... will be seen as improvement and some fans will assume she has changed. Then I expect we will have spiraling down again periods. It's just going to be that type of character. For now. Karla is well equipped to play it. Even sometimes deliberately slipping into pure camp Faye Dunaway as Joan Crawford territory. She is memorable and that is important for a soap opera. In a way she is like a Scarecrow character, a circus clown that attracts looks and attention to the screen.
I also think Karla is capable of more nuance and I expect that in couple of months I may be Dani's biggest fan. It's just a matter of how she's written. But for now... it's mess and circus.
OMG.... I am going to have to think really hard what exactly to ask him. Thank you for this opportunity. He's one of my faves. I'm so excited right now! OMG.
