You act like she saved someone from a burning building and then the whole town propped her like she was the second coming.

yeah Babe, JR and Adam all thanked her (as they should have) but there was no big fuss made. Annie was still pretty trashed and brought down in the episode

I want to slap Kendall over and over again. No wonder Zach can't stand his marriage right now.

Zach needs to kick that brain-dead, anorexic psycho into the nearest ditch.

Terrible ep today, Tracy Thompson needs to be fired along with that hack Rebecca Taylor.

ITA!

This was the first time in months that I've hated Ryan again. He went right back to being the smug, hypocritical jackass that he was under McTavish.

Kendall needs to have a house fall on her! What a stupid bitch she's become.

I made the mistake of watching Aiden's fantasy segments just to see what they were about. UGH!

Jesse's revelation to Angie should have been powerful but the dialogue was the worst imo that it's ever been on this show. Ditto for Frankie/Randi who were spouting some of the dumbest cliché's I've ever heard to each other.

I'd take Beall's precious and funny dialogue over Thompson's clichés any day!

I don't want to hate Kendall, but I do.

I don't want to not care if AM leaves AMC or not, but I don't.

Normally I would be able to resist such a deliberate butchering job by the writers. I don't usually let the writers turn me agsinst a character I love. But this time I can't help it. It's that bad. Literally every single line she speaks makes me want to crush a glass in my hand (just like in those really dramatic soap scenes).

I said it before and I'll say it again: Beall leaving is going to be a loss for AMC. And now, having seen what we're going to get from her replacement, I'm even more confident in that. Beall to Thomson, for now, is a net loss for AMC.

There are those here who have legitimate issues with Beall's writing and can lay out those issues. That's one thing. But I think alot of people started to dislike her just because it became the thing to do. But, at least since Pratt started, I think Beall's episodes have really stood out from the rest (in a good way).

God bless. The only thing decent with this episode is Tad/A&J/Carmen and Randi/Petey and Colby.

This "St.Lavery" stuff makes me wanna vomit in my mouth a little.

Well my [!@#$%^&*] VCR (yes I still use a VCR) didn't tape AMC today, but it looks like I didn't miss much, all said...

I still think that Beall let down yesterday's and last week's episodes--great plotting for the most part and underhwelming dialogue that never quite connected but it does sound like Thomson is a definite step down

Kendall's gun wasn't loaded and unlike Annie, Kendall wasn't going to kill Greenlee.

Hmmm I wonder what would make her think that? Maybe the fact that Annie killed her own brother and used her own child to manipulate Ryan?

All I could do when she was saving Little A was roll my eyes. Super Annie to the rescue

Sorry Angie, but you are so unbelievably hypocritical when it comes to Saint Kendall.

Kendall is the same woman who used Spike to seek revenge on Greenlee, seeked to conceal Emma's true parentage from Ryan. So she uses children just like Annie does to manipulate the situation so she gets what she wants.

I didn't think she was all that bad...... Thompson that is. The main problem with this episode was Hypocritical Kendal..... but that's not her fault because that's been the same Kendall for the last year or so.

Cut Thomson a damned break. First of all, it's her first AMC script ever. I doubt any of the best dialogue writers had a stunner right out the gate (it never happens). Second, I think too much blame is placed on the individual writers of the show. Yes, they write the dialogue, but they still work off of what the HW wants. In this case, she was working off Pratt/Walsh/Little/whoever the heck's thrust. As for today, I thought the show was sucky (mainly due to the story direction), but I didn't think the dialogue was terrible. But let's watch a few more of her shows before we decide that we should fire her. Kate Hall has had her clunkers, too.

Funnily enough, I've found Taylor's scripts surprisingly strong under Pratt so far. Maybe I'm the only one. But I think she's a writer that blossoms when given good material from the HW.

I agree! One script and people are demanding her to be fired! Say what? LOL!! Shades of poor Lisa Seidman who after writing one or two "bad" episodes - now she's considered a "hack." Come on now. LOL

Second, I think too much blame is placed on the individual writers of the show.

I agree on that.

Thomson's an AHW so I'm guessing she's writing off her own "breakdown" or whatever the heck they're doing at AMC now.

OMG do you have to defend EVERY single thing Kendall does?

:lol:

Regardless of whether Kendall's gun was loaded or not - THAT IS CRAZY. She was using it to hurt someone and kids don't know if it has bullets or not.

Kendall has used her children to manipulate her loved ones.

Good God - how do you not see that or at least recognize that Kendall can be a hypocritical BSC biyatch too???

Who, Kendall? Naw... couldn't be. She's the Holy Grail.

I'd take Beall's precious and funny dialogue over Thompson's clichés any day!

Kendall: "You can stop with the whole "Greenlee good witch, Kendall bad bitch witch" routine in front of the hired help."

Mmmmm... so precious! So funny. So original!

A wonderful notion -- not going to happen.

I agree.

But I also have to wonder how much of an influence does (and did) Elizabeth Korte have on GH dialogue... Is she one of the main reasons it shines?

I'm just now watching this week's AMC -- and I'm on Thursday. And my disgust for Kendall's words and actions today are even worse than I could have imagined. I'm not just saying that either - she is one serious, delusional, crazy-ass, hypocritical, BITCH!

In the words of DeeDee "Amen!"
