Speaking of scripts and what-not...there was a very, very, VERY cringe-worthy line either in today's show or yesterday's show. I don't even remember how the line went, but it was just so...so ugh. I'm going to watch today's episode again to see if I can catch it, but it's been bugging me ever since I heard it.

That's Joanna Cohen for you!

To me, the main difference between her writing and Beall's is that Beall does both wit and insightful conversations well while Cohen can't write humorous dialogue at all.

I wish I had more free time to read through some old transcripts and compare Beall to Cohen in both areas to show you what I mean, but it's summer and I have too many commitments to friends and family (as well as work).

I had to ff through most of Tuesday's episode because the dialogue was so bad and the only scenes I watched yesterday were Stuart/Zach.

I have two chairs... so the both of y'all can sit down. :rolleyes:

OK, I was looking through transcripts for the line that was bugging me and I came across this one, which I didn't hear, from Tuesday's show:

Kendall: When Greenlee gets hurt, she doesn't just give up. But you think you have her locked in the playhouse, and then she busts out and she has people arrested.

Was that supposed to be some kind of jab at the fact that Kendall literally locked Greenlee in a tower back in 2004 so that she could go and marry Ryan? And then Greenlee broke out, went down the wedding site, and the two of them got into a big old bitchfight.

But anyway, my little mystery line must have been from Wednesday's show, and the transcript isn't up for it yet. I'm really itching to try to remember what it was because that line just stuck out to me as something...something entirely cheesy and cliche.

If you were, I dunno, WATCHING the show when Greenlee showed up at Ryannie's wedding, Kendall locked her in the playhouse to keep her from stopping the wedding. Then when Kendall and Zach went back to the playhouse, they noticed she had broken out of the playhouse and two minutes later, Ryan was arrested during the reception. So, I don't get why that line was so bad. It's what ACTUALLY HAPPENED!

Um......

Would it help if I say please? :unsure:

Haha - I love the jokes R! And thanks for clearing up the Ryannie wedding and Greens being locked up thing.

AMS - I can't wait for you to find that line, I'm dying to know what it is now. I'm wondering if it's one that stuck out for me when watching...

I'm shocked I don't FF the show whenever Ryan is on....well I couldn't because then I wouldn't know what to rant about. But honestly I just hope these new writers just killl him off or make him the great character he was from 1998-2002

LOL. Ryan compared to 7 years ago is different. I liked him back them. I also liked him with Rebecca as Greenlee. :)

LOL. I also liked it when Kendell/Greenlee got into a B!tch fight! :D

Thats what you call DRAMA!

Oh. Well, that's just it...I wasn't watching. I had seen enough of nuGreenlee on her own to decide that she was really a notGreenlee, so I didn't really care what happened to her or what she did by then. Contrary to popular belief, I wasn't magnetically drawn to watch it because Zendall were involved, either.

It just came on, so I'm listening very carefully for it.

I hated Ryan/Greenlee....they just became even more snotty and uptight when they got together

I totally agree. As if they were King and Queen of Pine Valley and were perfect in every way. So perfect, in delusion, that it allowed them to pass judgment on all they looked down upon... And then the Kool Aid started wearing off and StepLee started seeing Ryan for the arrogant bastard he was when he started defending Jonathan even after he drugged her and she almost hurled herself off the Fusion roof.

But then Ryan gave her another sip. <_<

What does Zendall have to do with it? :unsure:
