TB had chem with everyone BUT MB - and thats the way it should work. Because Carly & Sonny should be far far far away from eachother.

Now that I can agree with. I hate Carly and Sonny...and I hated it more when Tamara was Carly. I just did not like them together at all.

But also, Becky Herbst was on another one of my favorite shows on Nickelodeon back in high school, Space Cases. She played Suzee, a girl with rainbow hair from another dimension.

Thank you. I have been trying to find out the name of that show for AGES!

Oy.

LMAO I'm guessing you're actually serious?? Heart and soul into the character? Her Carly was just an extension of Sonny, she had NO identity of her own.

I disagree. I actually think Tamara made Carly into an actual woman. Instead of the self-destructive wreck that she was with SB and the absolute maniac she was with JB and the classless beastic portrayal that LW does. Tamara was able to make Carly seem polished, smart and relateable. She had chemistry with everyone and she seemed to actually "get" the character of Carly and make her understandable and a real memeber of society. Carly started her own club business with Jax, was a good mother to Micheal and able to establish relationships with Zander, Alcazar and was able to develop rivaries as well. IMO I think Tamara did an awesome job at making Carly a mature and real woman. She may have not had many storylines outside of Sonny. But I still believe that her portrayal was one of the best Carly's out of the four we've seen. None one else has been able to "get" Carly since then. Tamara got the mother aspect, the woman aspect and the mob princess aspect of Carly.

SB may have the "rough around the edges" "scorch the earth while I continue to burn myself and all those around me because I am angry" Carly nailed down. But Tamara was able to turn Carly into a mature adult that actually seemed to have relationships and seemed to actually contribute to society with her events, friendships and relationships.

That's what I was trying to say earlier, but I couldn't figure out how to word it. To me, LW and JB's Carly's are/were not fantastic, but IMO they were a lot better than Tamara's.

JB entire tenure was awful and LW has completely demolished any type of sympathy and heart that Carly ever had in her. LW plays a cartoon, it's as simple as that. There's no real depth, realism or wealth in her portrayal. It's shallow and surfaced based on qurisk, tisks and hollering.

Oy.

LOL! It wasn't as bad as it sounds. The show did have a sense of humor.

Davenport: "Where are you going to stick that?!"

Suzee: "Let it be a surprise."

also, people have to keep in mind it was an early/mid 90's kid show.

As a fan of that show, It seriously was not that bad. But It's so weird talking about it here -- which we shouldn't be doing anyway.

You know, regardless if you like Sarah or not, Carly WOULD NOT HAVE LASTED this long had some lesser or average actress played her first. It was Sarah who established that character and brought her layers, had someone else played her from her inception, the character might have been a flash in the pan and out after a year or two.

I thought Sarah was excellent for creating a raw, angry, wounded woman. She was an excellent actress and I thought she was awesome in her role. She was able to create Carly and originate her in a way that hasn't been forgotten to this day. She did establish this character and some may even always see her as the definitive Carly (to me she isn't. I will always see Tamara as my Carly.) I think that Carly first storyline with Bobbie was excellently protrayed and that Sarah played her with a duality and inner conflict that couldn't be matched at the time. Her desire to cause as much pain to the other person as possiable yet still be so wounded and self destructive that she would end up scoarching the earth and herself in the process of dishing out that pain was exquiste to watch.

To me Sarah will always be the trainwreck wounded woman who was amazingly vulnerable and self destructive. While Tamara was the more mature and grown up sophisticated woman who lived for her kids, love and her marriage/relationship with Sonny.

Oops. The world almost stopped rotating on axis. What was I thinking?

RE: Claudia Z....

I have an issue with having two Carly' on my screen

One in a constant rant is more than enough. I don't expect Claudia to be in the guise of Carly, as SJB is an excellent actress, I expect she bring me something new to this table, not a decade old character that I never liked...she wasn't all that and a bag of chips for everyone...I found too much Carly air hogging was not a good thing she took ownership of scenes imo so was not very generous so I found it hard to watch characters play off her...I like the actress so I'm not bashing her by any means...

but I'd like to see the "character" she is portraying play out before I rush to judgement...

but as a Jason fan which is mainly why I detested this "character" her being paired with him will only remind me what a Carly lapdog he was when he' spent recent years since SJB' Carly climbing off her lap and he' supposedly will finally hand back her purse...so its not all good for me as a Jason fan to be reminded of this. My critique of the Carly's since I don't like the character is simple

SBJ vers.1.0 A good actress TB 2.0 I like that she took "ownership of manipulating in a destructive way for me she made me able to look Carly on the screen..JB' 3.0 not on long enough to assess LW 4.0 too old to be obsessed about Jason it doesn't make sense for a woman who is married to another man go through these kinds of paces...

I have never thought of her as Jason' BF but the most destructive force in his life after his accident. She leeched onto him and wouldn't let go and I've put up with her as a Jason fan. I think in her warped mind she really thinks she is more to him than she should be and moreover than he "allowed her to be"

...she has never respected him as a man, or his decisions and treats him like an idiot not a stone cold mob enforcer this theme runs through all 4 variation of the same theme. Until Jason can firmly put Carly in check and secure her in a proper place in his life even though I will never abandon him as a fan I can't take him seriously because its his fault she' this ranting lunatic.

Well here is the picture they put on the ABC board and boy she looks sexy to me.

I personally think Sarah was the best Carly, Tamara's Carly made me want to slap her too much and I could not stand her. Her screetching was just UGH. I started to really hate Carly when Tamara took over and then it just continued.

I am actually looking forward to her scene with Maurice because they were majic and the reason I fell for Sonny/Carly in the beginning. It will be interesting to seei if they still have the majic. I also cant wait to see her first scene with Brandon Barash (Johnny) because I have fallin in love with Johnny Z.

Oops. The world almost stopped rotating on axis. What was I thinking?

Shame on you!!

That's a great picture of her. She looks hot!

Same here. But I can at least tolerate Carly with Laura Wright.

Sarah is asking you to join her Claudia Zacchara site:
