Chemistry between Susan Lucci and Mario Van Peebles?

Featured Replies

Has there ever been LESS chemistry between two people? Poorly written and sloppily executed, to be sure, but this so-called storyline is as flat as the pancake that killed Dixie. Susan's trying her best, but Mario "acts" like he needs a double shot of Metamucil. Does his facial expression EVER change? I hope the new regime recognizes the lack of heat and bails a.s.a.p. (and why, oh why, can't they bring DIMITRI back? Now THAT was chemistry!!)

I think they have hot chemistry, now that the writers are finally writing for Sam. I can't wait tell erica gets out of prison. Amc would be wise not to put erica back with boring ass jackass, I would rather them bring Vincent Irizzary back or freaking let Michael nader return because I don't think MVP is gonna make a long career in soaps, but I could be wrong.

I'm for anyone but Jack for Erica. I think her and Sam have a nice spark, but her and Adam sizzle

I like erica with adam too, but the show seems set against that.

their chemistry doesnt jump off the screen but its there. I didnt see it in the beginning but Im seeing it now. Its had a nice, slow buildup and Im glad they didnt try to force it in the beginning

I actually see their chemistry. I hope Pratt is able to build upon their realationship.

I agree that Susan appears to be trying earnestly to make them click, but he is just DOA. Would love her with Irizarry, but for some reason the suits were against that. For a while when Frons took over until Bianca's rape, maybe even later, he and Susan weren't even allowed to share scenes together. They had some great chemistry. Same with Nader, but ABC wouldn't even rehire him to scrub the lobby floors. The Jeff Martin revisit could have worked if they had a more appealing actor than John James, if the writing had made any sense, and if Jeff were allowed to be a real, fleshed-out character rather than a transparent plot device.

I think they've got hot chemistry! Not as much as some of her other pairing(I.E. David, Adam, Dimitri) but it's enough for me to support them as a couple.

Actually, sudz4u, those pancakes looked light and buttery to me. ;)

Seriously, though, I think I'm in accord with you; IMO, La Lucci and MVP share zero chemistry. Which is shameful to me, since I, for one, always wanted AMC to explore an interracial relationship for Erica. I just wish they'd found someone who was more...genuine as an actor.

I can't tell whether they have better chemistry now or if it's just better background music during their scenes. :unsure:

Her best chemistry ever was with Vincent Irizarry's David. But since my choices are Jack or Sam, and I hate both of them, I say she should just swear of men forever, or go find David. ;)

If Pratt has any sense, he'll revisit Adam and Erica. One great thing B&E did during their time at AMC was bring Adam and Erica back into orbit as good friends and equals in a way. No one can read Adam like Erica can and vice a versa (now that Brooke is pining away in the attic).

Sam Woods and Erica don't have any spark what so ever.
