Erica was okay to me until they had her sleep with Jeff, the character's been doing nonsensical or/and annoying fluff since (including that). I don't even want to remember how much months back that went. I just want an Erica back that is not acting less mature than Colby and Ava. The story isn't doing anything for Jack as well, this divorce thing is a 2 week story that went on way, way too long.

The last story Lucci had that had real depth, that gave her meat to chew on, was the Michael Cambias fall-out - May 2003 - April 2004. She's had moments of getting to be in story that she can act like an adult in since, but really just moments. And OMG since the Jeff ride, she's had 13-year old written all over her. At this point one of the primary reasons I'm looking forward to this B&E story coming up is because Erica probably will finally act like an adult for a few weeks of episodes, I hope. I'm aching to see her in something that isn't "harmless" but really ridiculous fluff. I have nothing against J/E staying together forever but not if this is the crap they're going to pass off as good couple story.

Marry me? :wub:

Erica, to me, hasn't been the legendary Erica that I've only read about since her intervention. Damn it, I used to have that episode on tape, and I think I still do, but that was incredible acting. The entire episode took place in the living room of her old penthouse and it was her, Jack, Bianca, Kendall, Myrtle, Opal, and Mark. Amazing stuff in that episode.

I think there's clips of the Intevention on You Tube. A friend of mine has them too, I'll ask her to send them to me again, and then I'll share them. IA, Erica hasn't been Erica since the Intervention, hell since the drinking storyline, IMO.

Are you rich? lol. I have a materialistic side. Don't judge me.

That was good sh@t.

The week before Bianca has Miranda, SL was just so frickin' amazing. The week when she coldly went off on Bianca (ordering her not to tell her what to do *shivers*), Kendall (that was just wow, cruel) and Jack seperately. Such cruelty, but wonderful acting and even writing. She deserved an Emmy nom for that years work.

Did they play 3 Doors Down (some band like that) that week? "You won't always be there so love me when I'm gone..." Loved that montage, don't remember it clearly anymore but loved it.

I was watching a clip on YouTube the other day of when Bianca told Erica about the rape.....

It dawned on me. Erica as a character hasn't had anything as deep as that writing since then

Because we had a sick and twisted headwriter who considered the Fetus Story to be the indepth story for her but it never turned out that way. It was too disturbing and twisted to be considered an indepth story and they really never did delve deep into the issues Erica had with that betrayal except for her sleeping with that bore of an ex that she never loved to begin with and her catering to a slimy son that treated her like dirt. That's not indepth where I come from..

I want depth more than anything and if the writing for Jack and Erica had depth I'd probably enjoy it but it has no depth what so ever. I really didn't get all giddy for their reunion because A it was plain as day the minute this new divorce started it was going to happen and B I just didn't get invested in the build up so how on earth could I see pay off in that

That's because MMT screwed them up so badly that once she was fired (and it was one of the many reasons she was) they tried to come up with a quick fix for them and they tried to use romantic comedy to do it. I didn't like a lot of the story but Susan/Walt made it work for me (except for some of the stupid flirting she did) and as a J/E fan who was ticked off at how they were written the last year, I could accept it until their next story began which will be in a couple of weeks. I do understand what you mean though and yes you were right about their never being a divorce but again I didn't want one so that was fine with me too :P .

ITA. That MC story was chock full of amazing moments for Susan and for the rest of the K/M clan. I'm hoping we will get this type of meaty moments in this next story coming. ITA about Jeff and that entire fetus story. It didn't do anything for Erica or for Jack. Like I said, the NB stuff was a quick fix for them because of the damage MMT did but I think that's going to change after the next couple of weeks so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that AMC doesn't disappoint again. I do think that J/E are slated to be together for a very, very long time and I'm thrilled about that but I do want good story to go along with it especially if it includes the entire K/M family.

Not yet, but give me a few years, and I'll be quite well off. ;) LMAO I can buy nice things now though. I'm a college grad with loans up to my eyeballs, what's a little more? :D
