What a stupid comment, probably one of the stupidest I've seen. 

I have to agree with you. So stupid I laughed out loud when I read it.

Setting aside whether she is "dried up" or just currently bored with the admittedly uninteresting material she is given lately, she was phoning it in big time in today's scenes.

And I'd be the first one to tell you the writing around Sally (whom I like) is weird and the dialogue in today's scene was really bad in the script itself. But still she was giving it nothing. 

Agree to disagree. I don’t know what you wanted to see in those scenes.

Part of her is definitely only there for the check but I also think she is dried up acting wise. Its obvious this production regime has realized this as well which is why she isn't being written for as a lead anymore like she was when she first returned. Should've kept Tognoni but

She sure gets a lot of airtime for someone production thinks is dried up. Look, I loved Gina Tognoni, but Michelle Stafford doesn’t phone it in.

I hadn't watched a Phyllis scene in a while and all I will say, because I am trying to be charitable, is what is Michelle Stafford doing? Does she even want to be there at all?

 

Stafford is fine. She has her acting tics, but they’re much more controlled than in her last run. I really don’t get the complaints about her.

There’s far too much Kristen and Susan. It’s annoying as hell.

Watched those R&J scenes. And the Bard wept. Worse than a high school production.

Really bad. Surprisingly, Victoria Konefal was worse than Robert Scott Wilson — much worse. Really didn’t expect that at all, but she was horrible.

Good lord that cabbage patch faced looking Uncle Billy humping Summer taunting Sally. I can’t wait for the idiot to be knocked down several pegs. Kyle even told the dumb pig to leave Sally alone.

What in the hell am I watching? Why is Sharon providing counsel to Chelsea? God what a terrible storyline.

 

Why so hard on Hunter King? I can understand hating a character, but you’re way into mean girl territory with those personal attacks.

Kelly Rutherford is in her 50’s and Luner and Melchior are in their late 40’s. 
 

Not saying that’s old, but shouldn’t the woman Kyle knocked up be a little younger?

I don't really know how people feel about Julian in these parts (I was a fan) but it would have been worth chemistry-testing Nina and Julian a bit more. Especially if it had pitted JPS and WdV against each other which, based on their off-screen chemistry, could have been great fun.
Oh well.

I was a Julian fan, too. That character should have been redeemed and kept around. deVry is a strong actor, and I can think of many others I’d fire before him.

I think Michael E Knight is trying. I just hate his Southern gentleman take on the character. It’s awful, and it should’ve been ditched long ago.

i’d kill off Cyrus and Martin tomorrow if I could.

I hated the Susan stuff. Too much craziness, too much yelling. Eileen Davidson made Susan work, but I don’t think Stacy Haiduk can do the same.

After Ciara, do I want to see Ben with Claire? Not a chance. I still think this nuClaire is grossly miscast. The fortune cookie stuff was embarrassing.

Too many characters on this show are nice. That’s a big problem. 

Brooke was just laughably ridiculous. After all the crap she’s pulled, acting stunned about Steffy getting pregnant was pathetic — and even worse, she never blamed Liam to any degree.  Absurd.

Not loving Matt Ashford’s strident performance.

Matt Ashford was AWFUL. So over-the-top my mouth fell open. Every scene was one lined screamed after another. That’s not acting.

OTOH, I thought Linda Dano was great as Vivian, and I appreciated the Sorel touches. She’s so much better than Strasser in that role.

Let’s face it. Josh Griffith has the hots for Jason Thompson. We were crazy for ever thinking Jason’s job was in trouble.

I thought the flashbacks were trainwreck awful....so bad, yet so good.

But those wigs? GMAFB. The flashback wigs were bad enough, but that mess put on Laura’s head was atrocious. JLB should sue.

I was just restricted from posting on Twitter for 12 hours because I said I wanted Franco to drive off a cliff.

 I couldn’t believe it. A CHARACTER can get you restricted??? Anyone else have this happen?

She's a saint now.

Which means she gets one show a month.

I feel like we’ve heard Bill use those same words in every past apology to Katie. Bell does a copy-and-paste with old scripts, and it sucks.

Zoe is an awful person. I sure hope they want us to hate her, because if that’s not their goal, the character is a big fail.

Hopefully Tricia will be available for regular returns.

 

I'm wondering why Mariah, who is childless and in a relationship, would agree to carry another woman's child?

 

Wouldn't she and/or Tessa be thinking about a child of their own?

 

Maybe Chance should  have reservations about using Mariah - something to create some sort of conflict.

 

The stories are so boring at the moment. At least no serious damage is being done.

The Mariah surrogate story is awful. No one asked for this, no one wants to see it. She’s been friends with Abby for what, 10 minutes? And now she’ll carry the baby? GMAFB.

Abby’s SOBBING about not having a baby 15 minutes into her marriage shows you how bad this show is right now.

And what about Mariah looking around the Chancellor place like it’s some grand mansion? Gag me. That living room is tiny, and no, we don’t believe there’s a wing that Chance hasn’t seen.

Who blocked the scene in Victoria’s house when she and Billy were working? Stevie Wonder? They looked stupid and ridiculous sitting in chairs across the room like that.

Dont get me started on that set that looks different every time we see it, or the fact that they continue to line up the sofa and chair right in front of the fireplace — but facing away from it.

A mess.

It's actually offensive as a Kristen and Marlena fan.  Kristen tried to destroy Marlena, John and her children.  She was tried to kill Marlena, helped kidnap her multiple times, plus all the Eric/Brady stuff, and all the manipulation of John.  When Eileen returned Marlena/John basically imploded at her mere presence, but now everything is fine?  Kristen vs. Marlena was a fabulous rivalry and it's completely been ruined.  I could never, ever imagine Eileen and Deidre sharing a scene like that.  It honestly bugs me way more than Ben/Marlena.  Kristen has lost all her edge and is useless now.  It's a shame for such an iconic Days character.

It is a shame, and although I feel bad for saying it, I hate the way SH plays Kristen. There’s no lightness or humor at all, and everything is deadly and tortured. Plus, her vocal fry grates my nerves.

According to imdb, she's 40, but still looks way too young to be TJ's mom.

 I agree she looks too young, but I don’t care. With the other Jordan, I just can’t get past how made up she is every day as if she’s ready to go clubbing.

I think we’re past the expiration date on Kristen. I’m tired of this criminal’s continual escapes. There’s nothing fun or entertaining or likable about this version of her, so I say kill her off.

It truly makes no sense. Please love me daddy while I destroy your life and ruin your family.

Thank you.

How does Adam get Chelsea upstairs in her wheelchair? And where is her bag for goin* to the bathroom?
