Hahaha!

So lets hate on Annie becuase she's not worthy of your golden standards of beauty.

First, my Eileen comment was made towards Kenny, and Kenny alone. He found it as a joke, but apparently, some others did not. And you wouldn't because it wasn't meant for you. So go take your little Annie-bashing and Willow hating selves elsewhere. Thanks!

Kirsten, first of all everyone knows i love her.

now, on days i loved her. when she firstg started was she great? nope. but she was a god actress, no ali sweeney but still good and could hold her own most of the time. i thought she did amazing in high drama moments, like the graduationa nd the breakup with shawn. also, i thought her and KB phillip had great sexual tension. esp when they went all spy games and had to strip down.

now on gh, when she started i was like wtf? why is belle black in port charles? and wtf? why did gh get rid of the amazing RR? but she grew on me. i liked maxie/jesse and loved maxie being bad and going after lucky. imo, kirsten does amazing at playing a [!@#$%^&*]y role like maxie, and i think that says a lot because she is so nice and sweet in person.

but yeah... like i said i love her so.. whatever. lol.

Kirsten Storms was a great cast as a child actress. She made Belle cute and likeable during her first two years on the show (I particularly loved the Brady/Belle scenes of this period). However, as soon as she was given heavy emotional material, it became apparent she didn't have the substance to make the step up. Whereas Ali Sweeney and Christie Clark made the same transition with ease, Storms just couldn't do it. Her portrayal became very whiny and artificial. Langan's obsession with Shelle made matters worse because it meant she was thrown into this sweeping adult romance before she was ready. Finally, several years of scenes opposite Jason Cook couldn't have been good for her development as an actress.

With all respect Bellcurve, Maxie's motives have nothing to do with Kirsten's acting. They are writing her with selfish motivations to get what she wants. They are writing Maxie to be bitchy. That is what Kirsten is projecting due to the writing. If Robyn was there, she'd be doing the exact same thing.....except her emotional scenes would probably come off a lot better.

But that is what I meant, Ryan.

Robyn would have made Maxie's motives seem a lot more...believable. Robyn played the snarky, [!@#$%^&*]y stuff too, but she always had the vulnerability going for her. Even though Maxie, in theory, would be selfish, Robyn would still somehow make the character worth rooting for. After Liz became a sactimonious hypocrite, she was never my favorite, but I just love seeing her slap the piss out of Maxie when she gets a chance.

Kirsten is a terrible actress. She just has good scriptwriters giving her character life.

So, I'm fully aware actors have no control over the writing. I just feel Robyn would have given Maxie more depth. But that is obviously a matter of opinion.

ETA: And another thing...I hate it when I have convos with offliners who MISS Kirsten Storms as Belle. And I'm like, "Are you f***ing kidding me?!"

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
