In the past yeah Brenda was fun. She was a Diva and proud of it. But now... Jess has definitely solidified herself as Jill. Unfortunately Jill is so watered down now, that the best things about the character can only be found on YouTube. I admit that Jill/Katherine had some of the best stories during the Brenda days.

BD was so awesome as Jill. I always loved how she would wear evening gowns to the office. (And, I'm talking Dynasty-like dresses to Jabot. It was sooo over the top.) Her scenes with Kay were the best. I loved their catfights. Anyway, JW owns the role now. The character had to evolve. My fantasy was that BD would show up as Jill's trashy sister (now half-sister) -- a kid that Jill's biological father had. Ain't never gonna happen. But it would be a hoot. JW and BD on-screen and Katherine playing referree. (Poor Ester would have a big old mess to clean!)

I saw her on Inside Edition this week and someone stated that she may be resisting moving out of the home and causing a spectacle because she wants a job - and this is a publicity ploy.

All I could think was, who would voluntarily want to work with THAT? She's playing up the fact that she's a nuisance and a troublemaker...and everybody loves to work with troublemakers?

I think she'd probably be a great addition to the Surreal Life, if they ever do another season.

ROTFLMAO!

Nonsensical/WTF Aside: Do people really roll on the floor laughing their butt off when they post that? If you going to post that, you should have to post a picture or video to prove it. LOL! Like Whitney Houston wanted those receipts... Show me the pictures!

        If the standard of play in the women's final yesterday wasn't of the highest caliber, that is not something you could say about today's final. It was absolutely fantastic tennis. 
    • When Barbara's letter was read (partly in Barbara's voice), there was commenting upthread that Barbara's voice is similar to the voice of Naomi's unhoused client June.  It did sound like her.  June is played by Jasmine Burke.  Per closing credits, Barbara was voiced by Sherita Bolden.  Still possible that they are connected. From our discussion on the May thread:  Looks and/or voices similar between June, Haley, and Tracy.   Tracy looks like Debbi Morgan. LOL so June might be connected to Haley, Tracy, or Barbara; and/or Samantha&Tyrell. I love that we don't know!
    • In the 1987 episodes, Mary has wonderful conversations with MJ and Cheryl. This is a realistic family with believable dynamics. Mary's ambivalence towards Vince is played nicely. Denise Alexander is so good here. I don't know what happened that the writers or producers just decided to chuck it all away. I don't FF these scenes. The show had a strong family that could have had years of storyline and they did nothing with them. I really don't get it. 
    • I can't speak for Sonni, but I thought Annie came off as neurotic from very early on. That's just how Cynthia Watros plays her parts, and the writing went along. I don't think Claire was mentally ill - they claimed she had a brain tumor, didn't they? I am never sure just why they made the effort given that she was leaving anyway. 
    • @DeeVee Claire is a perfect example. So many women came to Springfield as competent, smart, and talented professionals. Then they’d attract a so-called “good guy,” get dumped, and spiral into complete chaos. What always strikes me is how clearly it plays like a male fantasy—yet it was written and sold to a female audience.  I'm not a content expert, but I don't think cis gendered women fantasize about losing control of their mental faculties in response to an orgasm. Similar to Holly's story, it seems repulsive, because I don't believe women fantasize about becoming more vulnerable and appealing to men after they've been assaulted.
    • I just watched some parts of an episode of GL where Roger has just been shot by Holly. Rita then admits to Hillary that Roger raped her. Kasdorf is such a fantastic actress. I wish there were more of her work available. 
    • -- Alex Alegria has almost a full sleeve tattoo on one arm and a large tatt on one pec. I see no indication that the show is covering up his ink,
    • Didn't Carrie2 even seduce a minor? Ick. Oh, yeah, and she even tried to seduce Alan, but this was his post-prison era when he was trying to prove to everyone he had changed. It's funny that of all people he didn't go for it. Wait. Josh had an affair with Vanessa? Or she just thought he did? I know people always say "it's just a soap" but the way mental illness is portrayed on soaps (and that goes for pretty much all of them) has always been not great, especially PPD. They practically turned Claire into The Joker. She also was trying to seduce men. (I notice that now Mary Ryan Munisteri is listed as co HW with Ryder in the 1986 episodes, Claire has calmed down a lot. Never thought her GL career was very good but seems like she tried to course correct that a bit).
    • sss Ms. Tunie is a goddess. I feel all the anger, pride, sadness, arrogance, dignity, fear, love, and other emotions in everything she does as Anita.
