If B&B follows the Dallas-route, Pam could be the shooter eventually... Mark my words.

Anyhow: I'm so excited.

Per this week's SOW, Pam return to LA with a Doberman named Tiny (with a penchant for munching Donna's panties--honestly!), and a major 'tude about Stephanie. Her resentment is finally surfacing about all the years of living she lost taking care of Ann. I gather there may be oddly inappropriate behaviors, like cooking for Eric. Put it all together, and I seems like a loopy, resentful sister is in town. Crazy with a grudge. Hmmmmmm.

I just started regularly watching B&B again about a month ago, and I swear Jennifer Gareis is UNWATCHABLE as Donna. The way she spits out her lines. I don't remember her being that bad as Grace on Y&R.

I hear you! I'm feeling differently. My interpretation is that Gareis has ramped up the campy, haughty routine for humor value. Did you not catch that eye makeup after the sauna?

My reading is that when Donna was victimized (flung over Thorne's shoulder and locked in a sauna), many in the audience actually rooted AGAINST Donna. That is only possible if the actress is not the fan's favorite. So I think they have Donna being as haughty as possible, so we don't let our sympathies lie with her.

Then again, maybe I'm giving Gareis too much credit, and her only assets are her, ahem, rockets--bought and paid for.

LOL. Maybe I haven't watched enough to get the context behind her acting choices. Still, I find her so off-putting. Like when Donna confronted Stephanie over Brooke's rape. I half-expected Susan Flannery to burst out laughing at Gareis, with all her jerky head movements and over-the-top stage whispers. When she's in a scene, it feels like she walked into an SNL skit and no one else got the memo.

LMAO! Yes!!!
