I am not feeling Bree today. It's just too much. It's becoming annoying and bratty. Her voice is so high and the screeching is so loud. Seriously. I wish Bree would take it down like nineteen pegs. I do like Archer's performance though. She is really playing all of her emotions very well. However Williamson is killing me with her acting choices. It's just all hysterical screaming with no variety or nuances.

I find it so hard to get behind Jessica's rant because so much of it is based on thoughts that she herself had conjured up. All her comments about Jared and Natalie "laughing at Nash" and being proud of themselves for "pulling one over on Nash Brennan" are bullshit because Jared was right. It wasn't like that. It was an accident. Jessica is grieving and is in a tragic state, so the only people she can throw that at are Natalie and Jared, because they're the ones who lied to the family. If Dorian didn't drop a bomb on the family at the meeting, and Nash and Jared had been arguing about anything else other than the vineyard stuff (I don't know...let's say Nash was pissed because Jared was wearing the same dress as him), and somehow they came to blows and Jared pulled Nash back and he fell through the skylight, would Jessica be throwing wrath at them?

Nash died because he wanted to start a fight. Jared didn't hit him back or anything, he stopped him from almost slapping Natalie! Nash instigated ALL of the violence in that situation and you see where he's at now? I'm not saying that he had no reason to be pissed to epic proportions, but I'm also saying that he chose to be violent and start a fight, and he suffered the consequences of his actions.

PS: And am I wrong for wanting Nikki Smith to pop out for just a milisecond? "Jessica, you've said enough, you need to calm down, it's for your own good. SHUT THE [!@#$%^&*] UP BEFORE YOU LOSE YOUR [!@#$%^&*]!!!!!!!!!! Jessie, please..." And I also wanted Roxy to jump up when Jessica took a crack at her and called Natalie trailer trash.

Jessica may be wrong, but I *totally* get it. It's all a completely human reaction, and I can't fault her for any of it.

And whether you like her performance or not, you can't deny Bree is working her ASS off!

ETA: Holy foreshadowing with Bo and Lindsay!!!!!

    • I'm not going to watch (because...well...that M-dude...lol) but knowing the history between Henry and Roger, I could see Henry wanting to enable Hart to stay independent of Roger. I could even see it as Henry having the last laugh at Roger. Roger hated "the Henry's" of the world, which basically meant anyone who had money and social prominence. Twice Roger swindled Henry out of a chunk of his fortune, so giving some to Hart, who hates his father, is a form of karma.
    • Ashley and Derek have to go- they really throw off the pace of the show.  Today was the first time I fast-forwarded through their scenes. The writing and acting is just bad for both characters.
    • Jon is stuck in a story that isn't popular but with Cady I feel like the issue is that she was clearly thrown in with no real purpose. I still don't understand why she pops up. I recall early on it being said she owned a spa but we've never seen it. That could've been an interesting location for people to meet. She also could've worked better as Smitty's mom, but instead we get this random agent of Dani's who pops up twice a month? A total waste. I mostly agree. I do feel like Jan could be elevated with a name soap actress, someone like Judi Evans or Kassie DePaiva comes to mind, but they're limited to who is in Atlanta. Keeping that in mind I think the current actress is fine. 
    • It's great to see. My thoughts might be a little different, but for the most part, I am excited and interested in most of the storylines. Yeah, you're right. This is probably how she (Dani) normally acts. And, I do not like it!  I agree; this is another distraction while she heals her wounds. If I weren't an Eva fan, she helped me root for her even more. As I said a month ago, I hope they take their time with her modeling agency. I would love to see her face a few obstacles before becoming a huge success. 
    • I like that there are a lot of local performers on this soap and I'm glad they've resisted so far on hiring too many soap performers.   Cady has been awkward on the show thus far and Jon seems to have polarizing as well. I say focus on the local talent and giving those people a job and exposure.. and leave the P & G soap opera performers in the past.
    • Who do you think would be good for the show among the ATWT/GL cast?

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
