Members NaVell J. Lee Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Oh, I am sure Alvin is enjoying this thread as we speak. I, am a Kendall fan, if not a Minshew fan, but I'm sorry to say, the writing is horrible. Right now, there is no where to go for the character and it seems to me she is doing nothing but running in circles. That is what happens when you are a HUGE integral part of the show who is featured practically all the time, if not everyday. This was how it was when Babe/Alexa was at the center of the canvas. Even Cameron/Ryan. They tried to make them the focal point of the show and people got annoyed after a millisecond. I, too, think I need a Kendall break, if not a Zendall break.

Members Ryan Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Team Annie for sure! I loved Annie called Kendall on her hypocrisy. Annie was the one there for Kendall when she was going through her tough times. Annie was there when Greenlee was trying to ruin Kendall's life. And now because Kendall wants to make things up to Greenlee by having Ryan & Greens be together she's gonna turn on Annie? I understand why Kendall is upset with Annie...she did try to pin Ritchie's murder on Zach but seriously....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 I am! Kendall has become one of those cancer characters that eats a particular show alive. And I'm sorry, Minshew is not that strong of an actress to carry an entire show, she's mildly entertaining to watch, but she's not that great either.

Members NaVell J. Lee Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 You pretty much emphasized my point. Alexa was a great actress....could she carry a show on her own? NO! Cameron is a good actor....can he carry the weight of the show? NO! Can ANYONE on the show right now carry on the weight? NO! If we rewind the tape about 15 years, then I can say that, but that gets old really quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 If you could choose who the new Kendall would be (after about a 6 month break from the character) who would it be? And what would you do to the character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 How many times have people said "Well...the way the writers are writing Ryan isn't right" or "That's not how Greenlee would really act..." It never happens. Some characters are held accountable for their actions while others get to let the writers take the blame. It infested ATWT threads last year during the Carly/Jack/Katie mess. But the writers are making Carly do stupid things! Ugh, there's stupid Fluffy again...blah blah blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NaVell J. Lee Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Well, then I better prepare myself, b/c Kendall is nothing but a spoiled rich girl...unless being a rich girl means growing up in a trailer park in Florida, then my neighbors are rich, too, and I don't know it.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Personally, I'd write Kendall and Zach out for a good couple of years. AMC has survived without her before, and they can survive without her again. Erika doesn't need to have her children around to carry storylines. I'd then try give the show a more ensemble feel again, I'd try to focus it on a variety of characters, not just six. But if I had to recast Kendall, I'd go for a newcommer, I'd love to make Kendall the outsider and town pariah again, and have her fight for acceptance. They've written her in a way where she comes off as too holier than thou and acts as if she's some moral compass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NaVell J. Lee Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 You sure you don't mean Babe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 AMC does that with all their main females - Babe, Kendall, and Greenlee. Why the hell does Kendall think she's the best judge of what should become of Greenlee and Ryan's lives? She has no room to talk about Annie.

Members NaVell J. Lee Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 I have to admit, though, had Erica Kane had done this, which she has before, then I probably wouldn't be going, "Shut up, Kendall." Only b/c I expect it from Erica Kane, the actual main female of the show...who is not the main female anymore LOL And why is Kendall wanting Greens and Ryan back together anyway? That's ass-backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Zendall away for a while would do the show some good, I've been calling for that since last year. I don't really get any enjoyment out of them anymore unfortunately. The writing is to blame, but let the show revolve or focus on some of the other neglected characters. If Lish bolts I wonder what becomes of Thorsten/Zach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KaneFan Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 Alicia Minshew assured fans on her message board that AMC is working with her just fine in regards to her contract. She seemed very confident with her negotiations, and stated that her only considerations were her schedule and vacation/honeymoon time to spend with her husband-to-be. She knows rumors have been floating around and wanted to reassure her fans she'd like to stick around for the right reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 Thanks Kane Fan, I'd just read that. Lish was PISSED cause of the false rumors, can't say I blame her. Nelson Branco is full of [!@#$%^&*], and this shows people shouldn't believe everything they read Uh Adam they're already pretty much on back burner, they're just propping Rylee & Graidan. Neglected characters, yeah cause Zen are to blame for them being neglected? Riiiiiight. If the writers don't want to write for someone, they won't. It has NOTHING to do with any characters. McTavish from what I read didn't like Aidan, so she didn't write for him, and no one was to blame for that but her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
