You have gotten my curiosity up with this point several times. What was her last soap role? Is it viewable on YouTube? Is there anything you have that the rest of us could see that may convince us of her talent??

Ann - I love Chloe as well. ICAM with this part of your post - it would be great to have the story re-focused on her than Cane/Lily and how they are doing.

her char had a really sweet romance with some guy, whos name i cant think of, i think they got married for a bit but she left him in the end and moved away or something like that. i watched it last summer when i was bored at work, lol.

I dont disagree. I do think TS & MG have chem, inf act she has the most with him.

However the couple doesnt work. for many reasons, but the main one being Colleen would never get with lily's ex no matter how long they had been broken up.

the other being the chem between AF & MG is too much to be denied, imho, and Amber & Daniel are such a soapy couple. Everything about them screams soap opera couple, and in all the best ways.

I must disagree with whomever said TS has chemistry with Beth Maitland. Those 20 seconds or so were so forced, I felt like both actresses wanted to end that scene as soon as possible.

And how is it that your mom from out of town comes to visit and you leave her in the lurches to go on a date with some dude who had a porn addiction, was married to your best friend, and was cuckolded by a woman you hate? How and why is Colleen even interested in Daniel? These writers are seriously lacking in these kids' histories. Really writers? She couldn't've even sat for some tea and scones? :rolleyes:

I don't think she has chemistry with anyone, actually.

TS was on a lot on Wednesday's episode. To me, it was too much. I'm starting to think she was miscast too. It happens. I think Sarah Gellar's a talented actress (rocked on AMC and Buffy) but she has yet to deliver on the big screen (Southland Tales, The Grudge, Cruel Intentions).

And for the life of me, why has she totally given up on doing the American accent. My Lord, it's completely transparent at this point.

In a sign of surpremely bad writing for Sursok, whenever they show her with Jack, Brad or -- most nobably yesterday -- Traci...I ask myself "how do these two know each other?" And then I click in.

This tells me ... due to writing, to be fair ... I have not really identified this character as "Colleen". She is just a generic young woman on the show, and could just as well be a recast Sierra.

I TOTALLY AGREE that I cannot believe she didn't sit down and spend time with her MOTHER. RIDICULOUS!! Truth is, past grievances aside, mom Traci, dad Brad, uncle Jack and Colleen...all in the same coffee shop...should have sat down for AT LEAST a cup of coffee (assuming Traci had to jet right back to NYC) and caught up. AND we should have seen that. It could have been interesting...barbs exchange and warm memories too. TOTALLY WASTED opportunity. Poor Beth Maitland.

Jack needs to combine proxies, take over the joint, and INSTALL ASHLEY as the rightful CEO. Ugh.

OMG. MarkH. I just exclaimed "Yeeessss!!!" aloud. Yes Yes Yes!! to Jack and Glo getting those Chancellors out and Ashley as the new CEO. And Yes to a brief sit-down at Crimson Lights. How are both of her parents and her uncle there and there are no scenes with all four? Noah comes home from camp, he who's always hanging out with his folks, and he gets hugs and kisses and hubbub. Why not Traci?

What I found possibly ironic yesterday was how Jill wouldn't stop telling Cane how he was the only guy she trusted at Jabot. If that's not a red flag saying Cane is up to no good, then the writers have seriously no clue how to write. Especially because they used the same ironic statements with Victoria at the Gala right before Sabrina died.

Finally, it irked me to no end yesterday when Beth walks up to Brad and says, "You should know me. We've been married twice." Who the heck does that? The writers seemed to have used that line to remind the audience of their history when WE already know that they were married twice. It's you idiots who don't know!!! How about you read up on Y&R history and create s/ls that build on it rather than blatantly use refreshers in the dialogue. Don't they realize how stilted that whole exchange was?
